Council Overrides Planners
On Northwest Branch Sewer

Rejecting a Maryland-Na-
tional Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission recommends
ton, the County Council voted
Tuesday to approve proposed ex.
tension of the Northwest
Branch sewer line to Norbeck-
Norwood Road as a priority"
project.
The action was taken by
unanimous vote after President
John A. Floyd pointed out the
sewer line is needed to serve a
number of public facilities in
the area, including Montgomery
General Hospital, which has
launched plans for expansion de-
spite the fact that it already is
confronted with a serious sew
age problem as the result of in
adequate facilities.
Also in the area that would
be served by the extension,
Floyd noted, are the Sherwood
elementary and junior high
schools. st. Peters Church and
parochial school and st. Johns
Episcopal School.

extended to provide service for

Twenty-Five So Far!
Ticketing of Pooch Owners
Working Well in Rockville

ROCKVILLE - Ticketing of
dogowners who let their pets
run free has paid off here. In
fact, it has attracted nationwide
attention.
Assistant City Manager Allan
J. Ofensend this week said the
new law, enforced since last
May, has reduced complaints on
free-roaming CANNES by 70 per
cent.
Under the law, If you let your
pooch run wild, it'll cost you IS.
Only Is tickets have been issued
so far, Ofensend says, but the
law has had more than its de-
sired effect.
Who wants the disgrace OF
being ticketed? And who wants
to throw away the five bucks?
SO .. petowners are being more
careful!
One resident, OfenSend says,

refused to pay the S., and re-
quested a hearing In Peoples
Court. The resident paid when
the Judge ordered him TO. Since
then, everybody has been pay.

ing just fine.
He reports there are 1850
NUTS, pooches or CANNES of
one kind or another in the city.
And there used to be all kinds
of headaches in administering
the program.
So successful is the program,
Ofensend has been receiving
queries from cities all over the
country on how the new pro-
gram works.
There have been so many he's
prepared a special packet of
information that he sends out.
Peacel It's wonderful!

these facilities, Floyd suggested
that it be operated as a limited
access sewer north of Bonifant
Road. His proposal will be in
cluded in a report on the coun-
tvs action to be submitted to the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission, which has included
the Northwest Branch project
in its proposed five.year sewage
development program.
Extension of the line was one
of several major WSSC projects
that the park and planning com.
mission recommended be side
tracked pending completion of
its own General Plan, scheduled
to be approved before the end of
of this year. Altogether, the
planners urged the council to
defer or reject some 16 sewage
jobs listed in the program.

Montgomery County s

of them, a University of

declared Tuesday.
Addressing luncheon of the
county's League of Women

sons including members of the
County Council, Milton B. Mill

handicap than an asset to the
council-manager form of gov

Director Of municipal techni-

Chuck was the first place win

Fire Site
Promised.
Cratz Says

Silver Spring Fire Chief
David B. GratZ this week
disclosed he has received a
firm com m it m e mt from
builder Jack Kay for land
for a new firehouse on the
old Indian Spring Country
Club property - but only if
the county grants Kay his
application for high-rise zon-
ing.
II have it in writing" said
GratZ, adding Kay has promised
him about 10000 square feet of
land if his coming goes through.
Word Of this commitment
brought an indignant response
from attorney George Spiegel,
who represents nine area citi-
zens associations and 1900 resi-
dents opposing the apartment
coming on the 43-acre tract at
ColesvilIe Road and University
Boulevard, owned by Kay and
other as yet unidentified inves-
tors.
"This blows the whole thing
wide Open," he said. "The cOun-
ty simply shouldn't be put in a
position where, in order to get
a new fire house, it has to grant
coming"
He termed it simple case OF
"quid pro quo" and said this,
as every coming case, should be
decided on its merits alone.
In final statements for the
coming hearing record filed on
behalf of the area residents this
week, Spiegel also warned the
County Council that rezoning
the property before acquiring
sites for both the fire house
and an additional elementary
school will cost the county
more than $660,000.
If the land for the firehouse
is bought before any rezoning
action is taken, he said, its cost
would be, at most, $1,000. After
rezoning, best estimates are that
it will be worth 100000, he
added.
Land that Spiegel said will be
needed for a new 15-room ele-
mentary school to accommodate
increased school population gen.
Grated by high.rise apartments
can be purchased for no more
than $175,000 today; IL rezoned,
its price tag will be 100000, he
said.
In addition to the land costs
for the new elementary school,

will require about $675,OOO 10

Rights Record
Is Inadequate,
Negroes Told

Negro civil rights leaders
were scolded yesterday for fall
ing to fight for civil rights In
instances where race Is not a
factor.
Negro civil rights leaders.
like everyone else. should be
civil libertarians regardless Of
race or color" declared Mon
roe H. Freedman. associate pro-
lessor Of law at George Wash
ington University.
Mr.. Freedman's lecture
1.-THE Negro Betrayal Of Civil
Rights" - was sponsored by
Alpha Chapter OF Omega Psi
Phi Fraternity. He spoke at
Howard University.
Silent on Prayer Issue
To Illustrate his point, Mr..
Freedman said that District
Negro civil rights leaders pro-
tested the continuance Of police
arrests for investigation be-
cause the persons arrested al
most always were Negroes.
At the same time, he said,
the Negro leaders have not pro-
tested the continuance Of daily
public school prayers despite
the fact that the Supreme
Court has ruled some types Of
prayer sessions in public school
unconstitutional.
Both Of them. Of course, are
civil liberties cases. but in
only one Of them-the arrests
for investigation--are Negro
civil liberties leaders raising
any protest." Mr.. Freedman
said. THE other civil liberties
case-well, 1t Just isn't their
fight"
Officials Criticized
District officials who con-
tinue religious activities in
public schools are betraying
civil rights, Mr.. Freedman said.
and added: "As long as Negro
civil rights leaders In the Dis
trict turn their backs on this
fact. and fail to support the
First Amendment to the Con-
stitution, they too are betray-
ing civil rights"
THE only debt you owe Is
to yourself, to recognize that
there Is more to the Constitu-
ton than the Fourteenth
Amendment protection Of Me-
gro rights" Mr.. Freedman said.
1.-THE Constitution is a docu-
ment that protects many rights
and many minorities, and when
you support It, you should be
prepared to support all of 1t,
and not Just the parts that
serve your own interests"
