A number of the merchants
inquired about business forced
out of operation by demolition
and rebuilding arising from
urban renewal projects.
When no concensus of opinion
was reached on how to attack
the problem, chamber officials
agreed to join with the city's
Urban Renewal Advisory Coun-
Gil in a move to bring experts
on the subjects to Rockville to
explain the program and its
possible meaning to the city.

| set aside tonight and tomorrow
night for disposing of the CAPT
tai proposals, which amount to
an increase of more than four
million dollars over the current
years figure for capital expen-
6itures.
At Tuesday nights hearing at
the Richard Montgomery High
School, an estimated 600 per-
sons turned out to give general
support to the requests of DR..
c. Taylor Whittier, superinten-
dent of schools. They included
representatives of major county
wide organizations, including
the Council of P-TAs, the Coun-
ty Education Association, the
League of Women Voters, the
Allied Civic Group, the Associa-
ton for Retarded Children and
others.
Few Objections Raised
Although a few exceptions to
specific items were recorded,
most Of the countrywide groups
applauded Whittier's proposal
for an expanded capital pro-
gram.
The Allied Civic Group called
for deletion of a portion of a
five million dollar item for con-
struction of two new high
schools which are not scheduled
for completion until 1864. It
called on the school board to
expedite one of the schools, to
be built in the east Wheaton
area, and proposed that neces-
sary funds be retained in the
new budget.
However, the groups state
ment added: "As to the remain
der of this item, except for
what is needed for planning, we
feel it should be deIeted from
this budget. We do not ques-
ton the need for both schools
/. but think they should be
budgeted in a budget which is
closer to the time of expected
completion"
The Civic Group also recon.
mended deletion of a $4,000
appropriation for construction
of a gymnasium for Mcntgom-
cry Junior College. "The gym
nasium problem while recogniz-
ably not perfect is not critical
according to a statement sub
mitted by Milton Rodes on be-
half of ACC.
Economy Urged
S. H. Ingberg, appearing as
an individual representing no
organized group, called for re-
newed efforts to reduce school
construction costs, urged that
the school board acquire build
ing sites only as large as
needed and objected to provi-
sions for air conditioning in
some county schools.
What justification can you
find for air conditioning the
schools when less than 20 per
cent of the dwellings in the
county are air conditioner"
he inquired. Ingberg also sug-
gested that plans for expansion
of Montgomery Junior College
be submitted to public referen-
dunn.
In giving overall endorsement
to the budget proposals, Joseph

BARROW, Alaska R - The three-million member Uni | e q Presbyterian Church has given its support to Eskimos seeking the right to take migratory water fowl for food at any time of the year.
 Kenneth G. Neigh, general sec retary of the Church's Board of National Missions, urged Presi- dent Kennedy, Interior Secretary Udall and Secretary of State Rusk, in separate letters, to give the Alaskan natives relief.
 The Eskimos claim they have aborginial rights to take migra- tory waterfowl for food purposes whenever they choose.
 The U. s. Fish and Wildlife Ser vice contends the natives must adhere to migratory waterfowl seasons, which are based in part on a 1916 treaty between the Unit ed States, Mexico and Canada.
 The situation came to a head late last month when the FWS started enforcing the seasons in the Arctic for the first time.
 Two FWS agents arrested two Barrow Eskimos for killing ducks and geese out of season.
 Two days later, 138 Eskimos came to a mass meeting in Bar row with cider ducks and signed statements saying they had killed the birds out of season.
 Asst. U. s. Atty. Jerry Shortell Fairbanks, and the FWS referred the incident to Washington, D. c. for a decision.
 Neigh's letter to Secretary Udall said:
 "The United Presbyterian Church shares your department concern for the welfare and hap pineSs of the ESkimos in Alaska.
 "I am sure you are aware of the problem which has been thrust upon the Eskimos who live along the Arctic Coast through the sudden enforcement by Fish

United Presbyterian Church Supports Eskimos' Right to Hunt Waterfowl

and Wildlife agents after years of inactivity of the migratory bird treaty.
 "The prohibition of the shooting of ducks and geese, we are told by our missionary, the Rev. John R. Chambers, means a dangerous reduction in the food supply available to the Eskimos. AS you know, these Eskimos are good citizens, they are obeying the law.
 But they have petitioned their government to work out some way in which their century-old hunting of these birds on which their lives depend may continue. They do not hunt for sport; they hunt for food. It is probable that the treaty never considered their situation.
 "Please do what you can to speed up some relaxation of the current ban on their hunting"

Soviets Unveil New Giant Jet Bomber

WASHINGTON R - The So- viet Unions giant new jet bomb CT is more than 40 feet longer - and may be considerably more powerful - than anything in the U. s. long range nuclear bomber fleet.
 The new Soviet bomber, a four jet Delta wing craft, was unveiled in Moscow two days ago during practice flights for an air show there July 9.
 It came as no surprise to U. S.. officials here. They said the plane designated by U. s. military au- thorities with the code name "Bounder" - has been under de- velopment for a number of years.
 This suggested the Soviets may have the plane in quantity, al- though firm information was not available.

Communist Leader Henry Winston Released from Prison

NEW YORK R - Communist leader Henry Winston was re- leased from federal Imprisonment today, after President Kennedy commuted his sentence because he is blind and ailing.
 He was met outside a govern ment hospital on Staten Island by Gus Hall, general secretary of the American Communist party, and James Jackson, editor of the party's weekly newspaper, The Worker. They drove away in a car for an unannounced destina- ton.
 Winston is one of II top Com munists convicted in 1949 of con- spiracy to teach and advocate forcible overthrow of the govern ment.
 He went into hiding and failed to surrender in 1851 to begin a five-year sentence imposed on him. After he finally surrendered March 5, 1856, he was given an additional three year term for contempt because of flight. The Justice Department said he would have completed serving his sen- tence, with credit for good be- havior, on Jan. 4, 1862.

Alaskans Face Five Tax Increases Next Week

JUNEAU LR = The cost of smoking, drinking and driving goes up for Alaskans next week.
 Individual net income taxes also take a jump, legally, but actually the boost became applicable as of last Jan. 1.
 The five tax increases Alaskans face next Thursday and Friday were approved by the 1861 ses- sion of the State Legislature.
 Together, they are designed to bring in approximately $3,640,G GOO annually in additional taxes.
 Car owners are going to be hit twice by new tax bites.
 One of the new tax increases ups the state levy on gasoline for highway motor vehicle use by a cent a gallon, from seven to eight cents.
 The other new increase affect ing car owners boosts vehicle registration fees for most types of highway conveyances.
 The key provisions in the statute ups the ante for passenger cars from $20 to $30.
 The word applicable" is the key word in the individual net income tax boost act.
 The statute has both an effec- tive date, July T, which falls 9C days after the bill received the approval of Gov. Egan, and al applicable date, Jan. 1, 1861.
 The second date is the dat most important to the states in dividual taxpayers.
 The applicable date means simply, that the boost in individ ual net income taxes from IA to 16 per cent of what person pays in federal income taxes will have to be shelled out to the state for all of 1861, and not merely for the period July 7-Dec. 31.
 The state tax on a pack of cig- arettes goes up from cents to 8 cents on Thursdays of next week
 And on Friday, liquor excise taxes on wine will be increased by 10 cents a gollon, jumping from 50 to 60 cents. Excise taxes on hard liquor, such as whisky, go up from $350 to $4 gallon.

President Signs, With Pleasure,'' Social Security Bill

WASHINGTON LR - President Kennedy today signed with great pleasure legislation increasing Social Security benefits for about 4.42 million Americans and per hitting men to draw their bene- fits at the age of 62.
 In signing the bill, Kennedy said the new amendments will make the Social Security system "a more effective instrument for the well-being of our people"
 Only seven members of Con gress, members of the House Ways and Means Committee and the Senate Finance Committee, show ed up for the ceremony.
 "You must be the only members of Congress left in Washington, Kennedy remarked, alluding to the Fourth of July holiday that has all but shut the capitol down.
 Women have been permitted for some time to retire at age 62 and draw benefits.
 If a man choose to retire at 62 he'll receive for the rest of his life 80 per cent of the benefits he would get if he waited until 65. If he retires sometime between 62 and 65 he will receive a pen sion proportionately larger than 80 per cent.
 The increased benefits will be- gin showing up in checks received about Sept. 3, the Social Security Administration said.
 5 Since this is the last day of June, a one-day delay by Kennedy in signing the bill, would have resulted in a one-month delay in effectiveness of the new benefits.
 The new program is expected to cost $825 million in it's first year. This is to be met by an increase in the payroll tax. Both employer and employe will have to pay One-eighth of one per cent more on the first $4,800 of the employees annual income. The Self-employed will have to increase their Social Security tax by one-fifth of one per cent.
