On Safety

RICHMOND, Jan. / (AP) -
Attorney General Robert Y.
Button has called for a series
of public meetings throughout
Virginia to consider what fur
ther steps can be taken at the
local level and in each locality
to reduce traffic accidents and
deaths"
Mr.. Button said yesterday he
has sent letters to all Com
monwealth's attorneys in the
State asking their cooperation
in the program. He said meet
ings already have been set up
for January l8 in Fluvanna
County and January % at the
Albemarle County courthouse.
The attorney general said
the thought in suggesting the
meetings "is to provide a forum
and an opportunity for con-
slderatlon OF constructive ideas
of all people"
Gov. Harrison and the en-
tire State government are
greatly concerned with the ap-
palling slaughter on our high
ways" Mr.. Button said.
A day-long seminar on traffic
safety will be held on January
26 at Williamsburg in conjunc-
tion with the annual mid
winter convention of the Vir-
ginia Press Association. Plans
for a year-long Statewide
newspaper campaign will be
formulated at the VPA session.

buses and be so Handicapped that
they contribute to the esthetics
of the areas through which
they pass.
Mr.. Richards urged the school
board to take strong steps to
attract and hold distinguished
teachers" In doing so, he
made it clear that the county
board is likely to insist upon
adoption of a new pay plan
which rewards outstanding in
structors. ms
AT SO, Mr.. Richards, who
represents the political coali- p
ton, Arlingtonians for a Bet
ter County, is one of the young
est men ever to be chairman
of the board.
In accepting the position, he
praised his predecessor, Inde-
pendent Ernest B. Wilt, for
integrity and devotion to
public service"
He added that the ABC re-
mains glad that 1t supported
election Of Mr.. Wilt even
though he did not belong to-
the coalition.
Reviewing what has hap
pened in Arlington since ABC
gained control of the board
five years ago, Mr.. Richards
said: ~
County services have rapids
I ly been improved, yet taxes
have been held to reasonable
levels, New Libraries, street
Improvements, health and wel-s
fare services, and parks have
added to the attractiveness of
Arlington as a place in which
to live. -
"Yet in no five-year period
since World War II have taxes
been kept so stable. Our credit
rating has improved and our
per capita bonded Indebtedness
is the lowest Of any community
| in Northern Virginia"
He also claimed that the
ABC deserves credit for help-s
ing create a first-rate school
system and for fighting to pre-
serve it and for resisting efforts
to close it during Statewide
crisis regarding racial integra-
ton.

Bottle Club Regulation
Is Needed, F, Guide Says

and the clubs a monopoly on
the liquor trade"
Paul Pfeiffle of Rockville'S s
City Club said laws should
regulate drinking in all types
of private clubs, including vet
Grams and fraternal organiza-
tions. He said, however, the
law should be amended to
allow all restaurants which
serve meals to sell liquor under
strict control.
John E. McKeever, co-owner
Of the Georgian Motel in Silver
Spring, said bottle clubs "are
not really acceptable, from the
service point Of view. This is
something that has been done
by a handful of restaurants to
meet the demands of our
customers" he said.
Control Of these clubs, with
out making the basic liquor law
more equitable, Mr.. McKeever
said, would be "nibbling at a
problem without doing any
thing to solve it,"
Dangerous Problem
The problem is a dangerous
one for elected officials in the
County. who have tried un-
successfully to change the law
in past sessions of the legisla-
ture. Church groups have
vowed to continue to fight any
liberalization of the law.
James F. Erwin, director o.
the Department of Liquor Con.
troll, told Mr.. Guide that profits
and taxes from the sale o.
alcoholic beverages provided g
clear $1.2 million for the
County last year. This reduced
the tax rate by about eight
cents per 500. Mr.. Edwin said
He said there was probably
some loss Of taxes and profit
due to the present law, bu
added he could not estimate
the amount of the loss.
Mr.. Guide said a study ol
the entire revenue question
should be made before legisla.
ton is introduced at Annapolis

Laws are needed to regulate
Montgomery County's bottle
clubs, State Senator Gilbert
GUIDE said yesterday.
After a dry New Years Eve
visit to two of the clubs ano
talks with County police and
liquor control officials, the Re-
publican Senator said that an
Unconditional study should also
be made of the liquor-by-the-
drink situation.
The situation" involves the
County's 30-year-old law which
allows liquor to be poured in 15
country clubs and in three res
taurantS that were in business
during Prohibition. The re.
mainder of the drinking estab-
lishments have wine and beer
licenses, or operate without any
license and become bottle clubs
Mr.. GUIDE, who will lead the
County's delegation to Anna
polls tomorrow, said that "the
revenue aspects Of the liquor
law should be looked into"
Bottle club managers anc
County officials interviewed
yesterday agreed the County
probably loses tax revenue be-
cause people who like a cock
tail with their meal go into the
District.
I'VE want to find out Il
Montgomery County will really
benefit from any change ir
the liquor law" Mr.. Guide said
Control Of Clubs
He was more positive, how
ever, about control over the
eight or ten bottle clubs. Col
James S. McAuliffe, superin-
tendent Of police, said officers
visit taverns at least once a
day. but bottle clubs are
checked irregularly by plain
clothesmen.
Even managers of the clubs
thought some type of regula-
tion would help. But they were
quick to add that it would moi
solve inequities in the law

The new year confronts Arl-
ington with a "crisis in trans
portation." Thomas Richards
warned today as he became
chairman of the county board
In a sort of state of the
county" address, Mr.. Richards
declared that Arlington also
must act to salvage some of its
vanishing open space, attract
distinguished teachers to its
schools, prevent blight in older
neighborhoods and cooperate
with other communities in the
Metropolitan Area.
1T seems to me that we will
need 10 go to the voters this
year for bonds to continue to
move ahead with the kind OF
facilities mentioned" he said.
"The alternative is to let the
county run down through the
failure to meet urgent needs, OF
to resort to extraordinary tax
increases to finance improve
ments on a current budget
basis"
Mr.. Richards asserted that
construction of any new ex-
pressways, such as Route &C.
which will cut a swath of six
to eight lanes through some OF
the county's business, residen-
tial and park area, will be ruin
GUS to Arlington.
ANY subsequent freeways
Twill be even more destructive to
established residential neigh
borhoods and even more dam
aging to business centers. We
must be abe to move literally
hundreds of thousands of per-
sons through more efficient
means which do not require
wide rights of way" he said.
THE introduction of high
speed rail systems with subway
approaches to the city center
will serve our citizens better,
will reduce the need for free
ways and will help rather than
hurt our friends in Fairfax
County"
He contended that future
highway programs should en-
phasize improvement of exist
ling thoroughfares so that they

For his design the boy used a

are said to be the earliest rep
