Since 1860

Employment in Montgom-
cry County has risen nearly
40 per cent since 1860 and

creased by 35 per cent dur
ing this same two-year

ing of the tract.
Polinger has stated unofficial
ly that as a price tag to the city
for annexation he will ask city
fathers to grant him % acres of
commercial, SO acres of industri-
al and 80 acres of apartment
construction permitting building
of SAG family units.
Concurrent with his city re-
quest, Polinger is asking the
county government to grant him
sc acres of commercial coming,
AZ of industrial and 81 for apart
ments.
City business interests have
been strongly opposed to grant
ing Polinger and his fellow
owners of the tract heavy COM
mercial rezoning on the ground
1t could undermine the city's
ambitious urban renewal prof.
ect-scheduled to start soon
which depends heavily on at
tracing major new business
firms to the heart of the city.
Polinger has countered that
development of his land as a
major regional shopping center
would aid rather than hinder
r ockville business district
growth, attracting even more
shoppers to the whole area.
A hearing on the coming map
that should be adopted for the
333-acre area will be held Sept.
is in conjunction with the SEIZED

annexation.

Senators Ask
StreumIininq


A Senate Rules subcommittee
yesterday approved three reso-
lutions aimed at streamlining
procedures of Congress and
perhaps cutting back on the
year-by-year increases in the
length of sessions.
One change, sponsored by
Senator Clark, Democrat OF
Pennsylvania, and 80 other
Senators, would set up a BIZ
partisan Senate House commit
tee, with six members from
each branch, to recommend i'm
provements in the organization
of Congress.
A second, by Senator Pas
tore, Democrat of Rhode Island,
would establish q limited ger
maneness rule in the Senate.
Under 1t, for three hours each
day floor debate would have to.
be germane to the pending
business. AS it is now, any Sen
ator can speak on any subject
at any time he can get the
floor.
The third, by Senator Church,
Democrat of Idaho, would
permit Senate committees to
continue in session during the
period of routine, minor busi-
ness each day known as the
morning hour. At present, the
objection of one Senator can
force all committees to suspend
the moment the Senate meets.
The subcommittee also ap-
provd a resolution Of Senator
Pell, Democrat of Rhode Is
land, which would give form
er Presidents the status Of
Senators-at-large with the
right to speak in debate.
The subcommittee amended
the Clark resolution to exclude
from the Joint committees
study Senate Rule %, which
sets up the method for shutting
off Senate debate by a two
thirds vote of those present.
Subcommittee Chairman
Hayden, Democrat of Arizona,
pointed out that similar ex-
illusions were made in the.

which preceded adoption of the

GoIdwoter Asks Delay,
Sees Danger in Treaty

MADISON, Wis, Aug. IT
(AP Senator Goldwater, Re-
publican of Arizona, last night
called for q delay in Senate
ratification of the nuclear test
ban treaty.
He also touched on presiden-
tial politics, indicating that
should he become a candidate
for the Republican nomination
in 1864 he would enter the
Wisconsin primary,
His political comment came
in an airport interview. His
warning on the treaty was in
q formal address.
Senator Goldwater described
the treaty as first step
toward a non-aggression pact
sealing Soviet domination of
European satellites. He saic
also he was deeply disturbed"
by information about Russian
nuclear advances in tests after
the Russians broke the l958-6l
moratorium.
Sees Halt Dangerous"
The Senator said the prog
gress reports came in testimony
before the Senate Preparedness
Committee on which he serves.
Action on the test-ban treaty,
he said, should be delayed un-
til the subcommittee reports on
nHclear test findings.
He said the testimony has
served to deepen my conviction
that we have been treading a
dangerous path In our attempts
to bring q halt to nuclear test
ing"
Senator Goldwater quoted q
statement by the military Joint
Chiefs of Staff as saying there
are military disadvantages to
the treaty, which would ban
all but underground nuclear
tests.

He said the treaty has been
presented as "A meaningful
step toward q new era of live
and let-live" with the Russians.
This means, he said, sharing
the earth with tyranny and
barbarism" and giving tyranny
a protected sanctuary from
which it can erode or attack
freedom"
