ANNAPOLIS, Mar. T. The
Montgomery County legislative
delegation will ask Gov. Tawes
to make a stronger push for re-
apportionment legislation.
The delegation agreed last
night to seek an audience with
the Governor to lay their plea
before him.
Last nights decision followed
statement last week by Gov
Tawes that he is doubtful
that any legislation will be
passed at the current session
to give the big counties more
representation in the General
Assembly.
New Bill Offered
A new reapportionment bill
was introduced today in the
House of Delegates by Speaker
Perry o. Wilkinson, Democrat
of Prince Georges; A. Gordon
Boone. Democrat of Baltimore
County and majority floor
leader, and Jerome Robinson,
Democrat of Baltimore City.
The new bill would add 81
seats to the House of Delegates.
1t is similar to the Northrop-
Pine measure, which has the
strong support of Gov. Tawes,
and its introduction in the
House apparently represents a
move by the Governor to get
action on reapportionment,
which has been stalled in the
Senate Judicial Proceedings
Committee.
Meanwhile. the chairman of
the Senate Judiciary Committee
suggested today that another
commission be appointed to
draw up a reapportionment
plan for next year.
The statement by Senator
Frederick Malkus, Democrat of
Dorchester. was another indi-
cation that reapportionment
may be in its death throes for
the current session.
Senator MalkuS has relented
somewhat in his strong stand
Of former years against any
reapportionment. But if his
suggestion is taken it would
mean no action would be taken
this year.
Several bills have been in
troduced to give additional
General Assembly seats to the
growing counties.
Senator Malkus' suggestion
that a commission be appointed

positors. The House Ways and
Means Committee, at the rec
ommendation of the Mandel
subcommittee, tackled on an
amendment which would allow
multi-stock companies in op-
Grafton as of January /. 1861,
to continue in business.
Faction Wins Point
1t was reported that the
agreement reached last night
added a few more restrictions
on the operation of multi stock
firms although the Mandel fac
ton apparently won it's point
substantially.
Agreement also was reached
to redraft the provision gov
erning the makeup of the new
commission which would be set
up to police the industry.
The original bill had set up
a Seven-member commission
composed of six members of
the savings and loan field and
one from the general public.
The Mandel group wanted four
from the public and three from
the industry. The agreement
repeatedly provides for three
from the public and four from
the industry.
Gov. TaWeS said he believes
the agreement will smooth the
way for passage of the bill
which has stirred considerable
friction at the General AS
Sembly. The Governor said the
agreement would produce a
strong regulatory bill"
Maryland now has no regu-
lation of savings and loan as
sociations, which has led to
the Characterization of the
State as the Reno of the saw
ingS and loan industry"
In other legislative action,
the Senate passed a bill to
provide funds for driver educa-
ton in public schools. The
money would come from a $4
increase in the learners per-
init fee and would raise about
100000 a year.
The money would 60 to
schools having driver educa-
tion programs but it would
not be compulsory that any
locality adopt such programs.
The bill has the strong indorse-
ment of Gov. Tawes.

Of the continents largest man.

feet the general concepts Of

cal dissertations, like, "Popu-
lation Dynamics of Alaska Fur
Seal"
The tone of the convention
was set by Ira N. GabrielSon of
Washington, president of the
institute. Mr.. GabrielSon,
chairman of the committee on
the Potomac River Valley is
q former director of the United
States Fish and Wildlife Serv-
ice, and the brother of Guy
Gabrielson, former National
Republican chairman.
lat no other time in the
early days of a new admins
tration, and at no time during
the life of most" Mr.. Gabriel
son said, "haS a President sent
such q compelling and COM
prehensive statement on natu-
raj resources problems and op-
portunities to the Congress"
Mr.. Gabrielson was COM
naenting on the actions of the
Kennedy Democratic admins
tration - an administration
which has pledged adoption of
q far-reaching conservation
program.
The continent-wide aspects
Of conservation were also
pointed out yesterday by In
terror Secretary Udall, who
told the conference numbering
f,200 delegates, that land re-
served now for future wilder :
ness and recreation use will
"likely be all that ever can be
saved"
Mr.. Udall said that the In
terror Department will mount
q massive and sustained ma
tional conservation effort"

SPLITS SCHOOL BOARD 3-3

Montgomery County School Board members were
unable to reach decision last night whether to
construct new building for the Leland Junior High
School in Bethesda rehabtate the structure
They were split to on the question which has
vexed the county for more than three years.
Board President Harold F. Breimyer voting against
a motion to approve a building said it would be
dangerous precedent to condemn school merely because
it is 80 years old
But Board Member Paul c. Howard replied that
facility should be established that offers every physical
opportunity for the best kind of education provide
The question is scheduled for reconsideration on
March 81, when Clifford K Beck, board member now
