ming for the area themselves.
Supervisors, q little stunned
by the proposal, said they didn't
care for the idea.
Supervisor Robert c. Gotten
called It "preposterous." Super

Merrywood Cited
Reason for the proposal to
form q town, said John p.
Shacochis, president Of the
West Lewinsville Heights Rose
mont Civic Association, is disil-
lusioned with the board be-
cause Of its action in zoning
the Merrywood tract in Mclean
for apartments.
Unfortunately, he said, the
board is presently "functioning
under o cloud Of public dis
respect "as a result Of its con.
troversial approval Of q sic
million high rise apartment
development on the Potomac
river front.
That, he said. shows that the
board can not be depended upon
to support sound planning.
Petitions Out

ors should know that almost all

tails necessary to incorporation.
He said citizens in the area
support the proposals by plan
ners for development Of the
300-acre tract at Tyson's Cor
ner, but that they have no as
surance that the supervisors
win do 50.
State law permits 20 quail
fled voters to petition the Cir
cult Court for incorporation as
q town providing the area In
volved has more than 200 and
fewer than 5000 residents.
Further Limitations
The courts have held that
contiguous and homogeneous
communities" ." may not be sub
divided to form q town, that
the area must not be excessive
in size. and that the general
good Of the entire community
be promoted.
In other action, the board
rezoned q SO-acre tract near
Woodlawn plantation for apart
ment and commercial develop
ment.
The application was filed by
Alexandria Attorney Bernard
Fagelson last year. At that time
he proposed an apartment de-
velopment for the elderly, but
he said yesterday he was un-
certain whether those plans
would be followed.
He said he was also unsure
whether A. Sherwood Vickers,
who has attempted unsucces-
fully to develop apartment prof.
ects for the elderly in the past
would take part in the devel-
Opunent.

Gov. Tawes shot back at
critics Of his reapportionment
policies today and said it would
be "foolhardy" to call a special
session Of the legislature before
the May Is primary to effect
reapportionment.
In remarks prepared for do
livery from a platform shared
by his leading critic, the Gov
ernor insisted, however, that
such a special session must be
called before June l to ac-
complish reaSSignment of legis-
lative seats before the general
election in November.
The Governors address was
prepared for q luncheon Of the
United Democratic Women's
Club Of Maryland at Indian
Spring Country Club. Guber-
Material candidate George P.
Mahoney on q day tour of
Montgomery County, was to
attend.
Cites Legal Questions
In holding to his stand thai
q special session before the
primary would be useless, Gov
Tawes said there were q number
Of legal questions which had
to be decided before the re-
apportionment issue could be
resolved.
First Of all, it is important
for US to recognize that be-
fore any action can be taken in
this matter either by me or by
the General Assembly, 1t is i'm
perative that the Circuit Court
of Anne Arundel County rule
Ion question Of whether or not
the State legislature is malap-
'portioned," Gov. Tawes said.
The Maryland Court of Ap-
peals ruled last week that the
circuit court had jurisdiction to
make such a ruling. The high
courts decision reversed a
ruling by the circuit court.
Both rulings we're the re-
suit Of a suit brought by the
Maryland Committee for Fair
Representation, Inc.
: The committee argued under
Evening star., 1962-05-03

the present apportionment
amendment to the State con-
stitution, 10 Counties with only
"a per cent Of the States popu-
lation can control both houses
Of the legislature.
Should the court strike
down the provisions in our
States constitution establishing
the makeup Of the House of
Delegates and/or the State
Senate, then. and only then,
will the State have the power
to act" Gov. Tawes said.
Otherwise, Gov. Tawes said,
the legislature cannot pass. an
apportionment statute. Such a
statute would not take prece-
dence over the State constitu-
ton in the absence Of court
action.
Gov. Tawes also said the
problem cannot be solved by a
constitutional amendment, since
such an amendment would have
to be submitted to the voters in
November.
Appeals Court Ruling
The Court of Appeals clearly
ruled, Gov. Tawes said, that
| If malapportionment does exist,
the situation would have to be
corrected long before Novem-
ber."
II am advised that should
the Anne Arundel court strike
down the pertinent provisions
in our constitution and should
this action take place after
June /, then there is a serious
question as to what action can
be taken at the State level to
effect reapportionment," Gov.
Tawes said.
II say this because If legis-
lation is passed at a special
session after June /, the law
enacted would not become ef-
fective until the following June
l, in 1868, long after the No
vember elections" the Cover
nor said.
He disputed the argument
that such legislation would take
effect Immediately because it
was passed by an emergency

Maryland delegation feels

Conflict Charged
Representative Brewster,
Democrat from Baltimore, said
the primary function Of the
FAA is to enforce air safety
and maintain proper air traffic
control throughout the United
States.
But he said the FAA Is in
direct conflict with its duties
by operating both Washington
National and Dulles.
"The conflict Of interest" he
said, (which exists because Of
the unique arrangement where
by the FAA as landlord has
tremendous influence every
where in the United States

racy in its worst FORM"
Mr.. Brewster is author of

zoning exists could house lSo. 200
persons.
Commission statisticians have
estimated that the county's
population increases by about
1880 per year. Still another
commission estimate - that
about 43 per cent Of the new
|comers win require new apart
ment space-indicates that, at
this rate Of growth, currently
available apartment land would
not be exhausted for % years.
Another factor in the current
supply Of apartment land
should be noted. as the builders
group points out. The asso-
citation stated:
Approximately two thirds
Of the available acreage al
ready zoned for apartments is
confined TO the Hyattsville-
Blandensburg Seat Pleasant
crescent. Shifting patterns of
demand for apartments-with
potential scarcity Of zoned land
in key areas Of the county
raise serious questions as to
whether any reserve exists
in major portions in the
county.
I'VE do not feel that the
present ALLEGATION Of zoned
apartment land Is excessive, but
rather appropriate and neces-
sary for an area expanding at
the rate Of more than 800 peo-
pie per week"
Growth Figures Differ
The growth rate employed by
the association indicates an
annual population increase of
15,600. Again the figure is at
variance, If only slightly with
the growth rate cited by COM
mission aides-13,500, or H.
900 to $1,000 persons per year.
Related to the tangled battle
of statistics In Prince Georges
is the current charge by some
civic leaders that the county
commissioners have approved
an excessive amount Of apart
ment, commercial and indus
trial coming.
Walter F. Mulligan. president
Of the Prince Georges Civic
Federation, has declared that
the alleged surplus Of high
priced land in the county can
be attributed to speculation.
Statistics, he said show that,
If coming were to cease now,
the county "could house the
anticipated population for the
next 20 years"
In recent weeks, the county's
zontng controversies have be-
come entangled in local politics.
Independent Democrats seek
ing the custer Of the incumbent
Democratic administration in
the May Is primary have made

StiII at Variance

The association, with its com.
putation that only 1851 unde-
veloped apartment acres re-
main in Prince Georges, is still
at variance with the planners
total.
The association said its esti-
mate was based, in part, on q
coming study prepared by James
Vance, q study which an asso-
citation representative obtained
at the planning commission
office.
Mr.. Vance was one Of the
authors of the Project Marlboro
report, which recommended the
charter form of government for
Prince Georges County.
Mr.. Vance's listing Of 1,7S5

zoned acres was found ITO be
considerably in error" by the
builders survey-taker. The as
sociation said 1t checked "in

total and found that about 50
per cent of LIT acres care

In its statement today, thu
association said that, If thu

the partial check is applied x
the 1908 acres we were unable
to check due to insufficient
time" then 8e2 Of the 1,TSg
''undeveloped" acres are nov

that the county now has only

commission staff last October.
c. Warren GiaQue, the COM
missions Prince Georges Coun-
ty planning chief, said coming
and land-use tables compiled
by the planning staff last Oc-
tober and in January Of this
year correctly indicate the
,965 figure.
Earlier yesterday. the Suhur-
ban Maryland Builders Associ-
alton charged that the 3,22e-
acre figure. given as the amount
of idle, multi-family land In
the county was "just not true. /"
SMBA officials said their own
survey indicated that the cor
rect figure is 1881 acres.
Two Compilations
The cited compilations by the
commission are an Inventory
Of zoning in Acres :" for
Montgomery and Prince Georges
Counties. dated October Is,
1861, and an Inventory Of Land
Use in Acres for the two
counties. first prepared last
October Is and updated on
January 20.
Last month, the 3,229-acre
figure was cited in The Star
as the amount Of Prince
Georges land Soned for apart
ment use but still vacant. A
commission aide last month
indicated the total was correct.
Actually the 3,229-acre figure
shown in the October (196I)
coming inventory is the amount
of all apartment-zoned land in
the county, whether developed
or undeveloped.
Apartment-zoned land in the
county that has been developed
totals / 1,264 acres, according to
the land-use inventory. Thus,
the total Of idle apartment
land is really 1885, commission
officials said.
