Approved by
Planners

The Montgomery County
Planning Board today approved
a request by International
Business Machine Corp. for a
124-acre campus-type installa-
ton near Gaithersburg.
The board sent its recon-
mendation for approval to the
county council which holds
public hearing on the proposal
for industrial park coming of
the site tonight in Rockville.
The planners disagreed with
the recommendation of their
technical staff, which urged
disapproval on grounds that
industrial coming would not
conform to the master plan for
the Rockville-Gaithersburg
area.
Members of the planning
board maintained that the site
is ideally located" between
three highways, Route 70-S,
State Route 355 and Brown
Station road.
The planners agreed unani-
mouSly that the widths of the
rights of way for the three
highways bordering the tract
supply more than enough pro-
lection for the residential areas
in the vicinity and that I-3
zonnig would have little or no
impact on these areas"
When the proposal by IBM
came before the planning board
January "a, Chairman j. New
ton Brewer, jr., suggested that
other board members back the
proposal and urged IBM to
establish its extensive operation
there, because of our efforts
to increase the county's assess
able base"

own which requires that its
buildings be located more than
Il miles from a major city, to
reduce the risks involved in the
event of nuclear attack.

agreement" says Mr.. Millus.
"a That letters of cooper
atom had been received from
Briscoe, Dockrell and Cardinal
Godfrey's London office. This
was true, but each of these in
dividuals had given his indorse-
emnt "unWittingly."
No Registration
When the Attorney Generals
office caught up with the
scheme a few weeks ago, it dis
covered that, although the Of
fering circular had been dis
tributed to the public, there
had been no registration by
either Rankow or Federated
Mortgage Corp, under the
New York State Securities Law
"a violation of the act and a
fraudulent practice. When
questioned about Federated
Mortgage Corp, Rankow made
these startling remarks:
"They (the Lesser brothers.
throw millions around in the
office. There is a strong arm
man by the name of George
He flexes his muscles every
morning with an open chest
(He referred to Muscles" Fut-
termanD He boosted that he
just brought in 10 million from
this union and 20 million from
that union. -"
That this assortment of eX-
criminals could band together
to sell securities to an innocent
public and could get as far as
they did seem incredible-but
that's the tale.
AS of today, the Attorney
Generals office is still gather
ing evidence to bar forever the
Lesser brothers, Futterman ano
others associated with them
from engaging in the securities
business in New York. RankoW
already is barred. Whatever the
outcome, this is an Illustration
of the extent to which mobstel
elements are trying to infil-
trate this lucrative field.

Mr.. Minow, chairman of the

Asked by a fellow panelist
whether television's big audi
ences do not prove it is a sue
cess as a medium of communi-
cation, Mr.. MinoW replied the
great exposure itself should not
be the only criterion of success
or failure.
Deplores Emptiness

in spreading emptiness, not in

them, something which will be

said.
Mr.. Minow said every radio
and television advertiser has
an obligation to invest a sub

increase public understanding
and more and more advertisers
are meeting this obligation.
"They are catching up with
a country which is hungry for
information" he said.
Mr.. Minow, whose statement
that much Of television is "a
vast wasteland" stirred wide
spread criticism within the in
dustry last year, was warmly
applauded by the advertisers
after today's appearance. He
frequently referred to indica-
tions of what he said is i'm

pressed the opinion that the

crease its effectiveness as an
educator instead of merely as

Proposal Outlined
Here's the tale of this pro-
posed "unholy alliance" as
traced so far in papers filed
in court by Asst. Attorney Gen
eral and former FBI Agent AL
bert j. Millus:
In July of last year, the Les
ser brothers were operating a
corporation called the FEEDER
ated Mortgage Corp, at 26
Court street, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Late that month, Norman Ran
ikoW made an agreement with
the Lesser brothers to create
another company. The purpose
of the new company, to be con-
trolled by Rankow and FEEDER
ated Mortgage, was to raise a
half-million dollars through the
sale of tsock to the public for
the initial financing of a mo-
ton picture, "St. Patrick.
The three ex-convicts circu-
lated a brochure to promote
the sale of the stock. Among
other things, the brochure al

PALM BEACH, Mar. IT,
Authorities seem agreed on
it-this is the biggest sea-
son that Palm Beach has
ever had.
The resort may have the
same effect on the tourist
as it does on President Ken
needy. In regards to what
Palm Beach does for the
President, Pierre Salinger has
a quick answer.
1T rechargeS the Presi-
dents batteries!" he said
with the cigar still clenched
between his teeth and his
flashing eyes full-of sparkle.
There is a noticeable diff
ference. 1t invigorates him.
Down here he can get rest
and sunshine and still be able
to continue his work, which
he must do, in an atmosphere
that sends him back to
Washington prepared to meet
the rigors Of the day."
The Presidential Press Sec
rotary says there is a great
deal of contrast between the
pre-inaugural period in Palm
Beach and the present. ut
was more relaxing before the
Inauguration. Even though
the President can come to a
relaxing place, now that he
is President it is a 24-hour
day and he must devote a
great part of every day to
work"
Handicapping Off
AS for President Kennedy
spending more or less time
here, Mr.. Salinger replied.
1.-THE pattern is pretty well

Years and Easter-with

the resort is expecting the
President again next month.
OF course Mr.. Salinger was

when he spoke at Miami

Mr.. Salinger slipped off for
an afternoon at the track,
travelling up to Hallandale's
