$466,000 Find Cuts
Arlington I ak Pressure

While taxes threaten to soal
elsewhere in the Washington
suburbs. pressure for new levies
in Arlington has greatly dimin-
ished with the discovery thai
the county will get $466,000 ir
revenues 1t did not expect.
County board members think
the unanticipated income ere.
ates a reasonable chance that
Arlington residents for the Sec
ond successive year will escape
higher tax rates altogether.
Even If there is an increase,
1t will be confined to the real
estate levy and will be less
than 2 per cent of the present
rate Of 1881 per 500 assessed
valuations, they believe.
The budget submitted by
County Manager A. T. Lund-
berg was $375.O00 out of bal

a 10-cent jump in the real
property tax. The budget pre-
pared by School Supt. Ray Reid

BurkIund Challenges
BroyhiII Bid in 10th

Fairfax Delegate Glenn A
Burklund is challenging a can.
didate backed by Representative
Broyhill for leadership of the
Republican Party in Northern
Virginia.
His candidacy, announced
yesterday, could cause an I'M
usual, possibly bitter internal
party fight in which both Mr.
Broyhill's prestige and future
Republican policy would be at
issue.
The Congressman has in
dorsed and intends strongly to
support Arlington Attorney
Robert j. Gerber for the chair
manship of the 10th District
committee.
Mr.. Burklund Is expected to
have equally vigorous backing
from the present district chair
man, Ray Cromley, with whom
Mr.. Broyhill has teuded in the
past.
One of their major differences
concerns whether Republicans
should put forward candidates
for all elective offices in North
ern Virginia.
Mr.. Broyhill, who has won
elections five times with APP
preciable assistance from con-
sentative Democrats, is not
eager to start a spate of local
fights. He also feels that as
the Republicans most success
full candidate in Northern Vir-
ginia, he is entitled to exercise
some Influence over its policy
by being able to work with a
chairman sympathetic to his
views.
Mr.. Cromley, who has been
credited with developing the
Republican precinct organiza-
ton and with contributing
heavily to the election of both
Mr.. Burklund and three Re-
publicans on the Fairfax
County Board of Supervisors,
has expressed the belief that
the party can prosper per-
manently only if it tries to
win in every political contest.

letter in no way meant an in
dorsement Of Mr.. Finan's
candidacy.
Hits Tactics
1.-THE release Of the Kennedy
letter typifies Mr.. Finan's tao
tics" Mr.. Barrick said. Here
he took a purely routine letter
written by the United States
Attorney General and tried to
make it appear that the (Ken-
nedy) administration is back
ing his candidacy"
Mr.. Barrick's statement was
made during the Mahoney
tickets campaign tour through
Howard County. Members Of
the Mahoney group are touring
Central Maryland while the
Tawes caravan is drumming
up support on the Eastern
Shore.
Yesterday, two members of
the Mahoney ticket called on
Gov. Tawes to convene a spe-
cial session of the General As
sembly to reapportion seats in
the Legislature.
The request was made by
State Delegates Blair Lee III
of Montgomery, who is running
for United States Senator, and
Carlton r. Sickles Of Prince
Georges, running for Congress-
man at large.
They said that the Supreme
Court decision Monday In a
Tennessee reapportionment
case makes reapportionment
Of Maryland legislative seats
inevitable.
In a telegram to Gov. Tawes,
Mr.. Lee and Mr.. Sickles said
they felt "the elected repre-
sentatives Of the people Of
Maryland should have another
opportunity to act Con reap

step in"

cause the school system has
more pupils this year than esti-
mated last fall, it will receive
500 900 more from the State.
Mr.. Lundberg earlier re-
ported that the latest informa.
ton indicates the State gaso-
line tax will return $273,00C
more than the county had cal
culated and that the business
income tax will produce $780,
900 more than expected.
From these funds, the board
tentatively has agreed to al
locate $4,000 to reduce the
work week of firemen from go
to Sc hours beginning Janu-
airy 1; $4,000 for acquisition
of regional parklands; $50, 600
for snow removal and $34, 900 to

day commented:
"The Democrats in Fairfax

that he made 40 campaign

criticism. but he cannot do so

ture OF 1914 million in 1962-63.
The 1962-63 program en-
compasses the outlay of about
$l2.7 million in city funds and
SLAB million in State and Fed
eral funds for a total of $27,-
607,177. However, much of this
program, including the Gadsby
Urban Renewal projects, would
be financed over several years,
cutting the overall cost to the
city this year by more than
half.
Bonds Suggested
Acting City Manager P. B.
Hall suggested the sale Of a
bond issue totaling $4,211, 900,
a reduction of $889,000 from
the $5.1 million proposed last
year. The reduction would be

Baltimore City is concerned,
Mr.. Barrick said.
Mr.. Barrick said the slow
down is either the result Of: &,
/. Attorney General Thomas
B. Finan being too busy cam
paigning for reelection.
2. An insufficient staff to
handle the Investigations and
court actions.
8. The savings and loan scan-
dals have become such an issue
that the Tawes administration
is concerned about losing sup
port, particularly in the Balti-
more area.
Certainly If he (Mr. Finan)
is waiting until after the May
is primary he is doing the peo-
pie Of Maryland a great dis
service" Mr.. Barrick said.
Direct Attack
This was Mr.. Barrick's first
direct attack on the admins
tration Of Gov. Tawes or on his
opponent, Mr.. Finan, who is
running on the Tawes ticket
Mr.. Barrick is running on the
ticket of Gubernatorial Candi-
date George P. Mahoney.
IF Mr.. Finan were concerned
about vigorous enforcement he
would have asked for addi-
tional personnel during the
last session of the General
Assembly to speed up the in
vestigation of savings and loan
firms" Mr.. Barrick said.
Mr.. Barrick said it is i'm
perative that shaky firms be
weeded out as soon as possible
so that confidence can be re-
stored in the savings and loan
industry.
Mr.. Barrick also criticized

ment official.
These were the summations
last night of two persons-one
Negro and one white-who told
members of the National Cap

chose to live in integrated
neighborhoods. The meeting
was at All Souls Unitarian

There was no room be-

Mrs. Williams, president of the

Owner Willing to Sell
Mr.. Williams said the owner
Of the house the family pur-
chased had no objections about
selling to Negroes, but the real
estate man listing the property
refused to handle the trans
action.
Their stay in the Wheaton
neighborhood has been marred
by a hangman's moose left on
the windshield Of their car, a
crude cross burned on the lawn
and a fire bomb tossed against
the house, Mrs. Williams said.
And, Of course. the crank tele-
phone calls and letters.
Sought Environment
DR.. Robert Good, director of
the State Department Office of
Analysis and Research for AZ
RIGA, and a white man said his
family's residence in a racially
mixed community represents
lessons in democracy for his
children and helps improve
Americas image abroad.
Judge Theodore Miller of
Montgomery County's Orphans
Court, who is white, and a
neighbor of Mrs. Williams, ex-
planned his neighborhood's re-
action when the Williams
family moved into this area.

didn't know what to do" he
said. "For-sale signs went up
when she purchased the home
and some Of them came down
