Referred to U. N.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Jan. II (AP). PakiStan has
asked the United Nations Sc
curity Council to meet at the
earliest convenient time and
consider the Indian Pakistani
dispute over Kashmir. Sir
zafrulla Kahn, Pakistan'S chief
U. N. delegate, made the request
in a letter distributed to Coun-
Gil members today.
The letter said a situation of
tension had been created by
recent threatening statements
of Indian leaders. 1t said San
Jlvat Reddy of the Indian Ma.
tional Congress Party declared
at Patna a week ago India
would liberate that part of
KaShmir now under Pakistan's
control.
The border state Of KaShmir
is divided into Indian and PAX
lStan occupation zones. Its
Hindu ruler turned it over to
predominantly Hindu India in
l947 instead of Moslem Paki-
stan even though most Kash-
miriS are Moslems. Fighting re-
suited but the United Nations
obtained a cease fire.

The director of the State De-
partment of Assessments and
Taxation has ruled that Vinton
T. Bull will not be allowed to
serve as acting Anne Arundel
County business manager.

SaloVaara from the managers
job and simultaneously named
Mr.. Bull to replace him tenn
porarily.

among other things, that the
supervisor shall hold no other
public office of profit and that
as supervisor he shall devote
full time to the discharge of
his duties as SUCH"
The commissioners will have
to find another replacement
because it may be sometime
in March before they can take

Charter Plan
For Fuirfux
Modified

The Fairfax City Council has
adopted notifications to their
proposed new charter providing
for a more independent school
board and giving the council
power to preserve historic
buildings under the provision
of the Charleston ordinance. 4"
The changes, adopted after a
public hearing at Fairfax City
Hall Wednesday constituted
amendments to a draft charter
which has already been given
to the city's representatives in
the General Assembly which
opened in Richmond yesterday.
One of the key provisions Of
the draft charter, sent to Rich
mond in advance of yesterdays
public hearing, called for a
five-man school board which
would have served at the pleas
ure of the council. The change
adopted last night sets up stag
gered three-year terms for the
school board. 1t was strongly
urged by city school superin-
tendent, Robert B. Walker.
Mr.. Walker, formerly a su-
perintendent for finance in the
county school system, spoke
against the indefinite term SyS-
tenn currently in effect on the
county level.
The Board of Supervisors
election two years ago, he noted,
resulted in wholesale reappoint-
mentS to the school board. Six
years ago, he continued, the
change was even more drastic,
with only one hold-over out of
seven baord members retaining
a seat after the supervisors
election.
The Charleston ordinance"
feature added to the charter
provides for preservation of
architectural period pieces
which have been designated as
being of special historical sig
nificance by an appropriate city
committee. Councilmen in the
past have expressed the fear
that presSures of development
in the fast-growing city might
doom some of it's best exam
pies Of pre-Civil War buildings.

Censure of Gizenqo
Backed by Majority

order to arrest Gen. Lundula

the massacre of 13 Italian
airmen last November.
Seen as Crucial Blow
This appeared a crucial blow
to the Communist backed dep
uty premier who tried to ride
to power on the political coat
tails of the slain Lumumba.
After challenging the Leo
poldville government to come
and get him, Mr.. Gizenga yes
terday changed his tune and
sent a telegram from Stanley
vile that he would return to
the capital willingly.
Mr.. Gizenga did not specify
a date for his arrival. But the
president of the lower house of
Parliament Immediately ac-
knowledged the offer and re-
piled he would send a plane to
bring Mr.. Gizenga from his
headquarters IT'S miles north
east of Leopoldville.
Mr.. Gizenga's clash with Gen,
Lundula, once his Staunch sup
porter, appeared the last straw
in his effort to keep alive hopes
of supplanting Premier Cyrille
Adoula.
Mr.. Gize ga joined the
Adoula government as deputy
premier last fall but remained
in Leopoldsville only three
weeks. Since then he repeatedly
tried unSuccessfully to stir up
a rebellion against the central
government in Kivu province
and the Soviet bloc, which for
merly supported him, has grown
nOtiCeablV cool to him.

Police Pay
ToHoId Men

A pay raise has been author
lied for police officers in Fair
fax County in an attempt to
halt employe turnover that has
reached critical proportions.
The Board of County Super
visors on Wednesday approved
a As per cent increase. and
county officials said they in
tended to ask for a further
raise in next years budget.
Police Chief William L. Dur
rer said his department is 20
men short of its authorized
strength, mainly because Of
the county's salary scale.
The Fairfax scale for police
officers is the lowest in the
metropolitan area and will con-
tinue to be so, even with the
new raise.
Chief Durrer said the Fair
fax scale runs from 7 to 13
per cent under those of other
police departments in the area.
THE situation is critical" he
said, "and has been for the
past three months" In the
last so days, he said, the de-
partment has lost six men with
many years Of police expert
ence.
He said he hoped supervisors
would approve additional raises
in the new budget averaging 10
per cent and possibly IL per
cent for police officers.
County Personnel Director
James Keyes said the police de-
partment was losing many
younger men and some vet
Grams who are discovering that
other departments pay better
The As per cent raise also
would apply to paid firemen
The raise, effective January l
will increase beginning police
and firemens' salaries from
$4,416 to $4,620.
