Alexandria
Woter Firm
Rejects Bid

The Alexandria Water Co.
has rejected a challenge issued
earlier this week by Mayor
Leroy S. Bendheim to meet
terms offered the city by Fair
fax County.
"If the company were to ac-
cept," w. n. H. Putnam, the
company president said, "it
would result in its increasing
rates for service to the people
in Alexandria. This, of course,
we had not conceived of and
we think it unlikely that the
State Corporation Commission
would approve such a proposal. ]"
Water company spokesmen
have said Alexandria would get
the worst of a proposed ar
rangement whereby the city
would join Fairfax in seeking
public ownership of the COM
pany. Under the proposal,
Alexandria would own company
facilities lying within its bound
aries and would get water at
cost from Fairfax.

Virginia's new cigarette tax has
lost his court case against the

Willie Lee Grove of Arling-
ton, Va, filed suit against the
State Taxation Department last
year. claiming he should be
exempted from paying the tax
on cigarettes bought from the
prison exchange because he is
"a ward of the State.
Judge John Wingo Knowles
Of Richmond Circuit Court said
in his ruling that ''it is clear
that the so-called tobacco tax
is not levied upon the individ-
ual consumers but rather upon
the persons who sell or store
or receive =. tobacco or tobac-
CO products" Thus, said Judge
Knowles, Grove has no right
to bring the suit.
