ROCKVILLE - The city's low

To acquire
Park Site

ROCKVILLE - The city has
authorized its legal department
to start condemnation proceed
ings for the acquisition of about
Is acres of land on Route %,

Condemnation proceedings
were authorized after some
months of negotiations with
Guy L. and M. K. Carter to buy
the land for park purposes col

1t is understood that the
Carriers turned down the offer

Land in the vicinity Of the

Restoration
Pleas Filed
With Council
By William HI. Smith
Sentinel Reporter

Despite a formal opinion
by its attorney that it cam
not legally reconsider its
action, the County Council
remained under fire this
week for its reduction of
budget funds needed to en-
ploy 200 requested new
school teachers.
Coincident with a ruling de-
livered by the councils legal ad-
visor, Robert j. Tobin Jr. on
Tuesday, the governing body
was in receipt of a letter from
the Committee on Public
Schools in which Tobin's posi-
ton was sharply disputed.
The letter, however, which
Lee Conahan declared he de-
livered personally to Council
President John A. Floyd Mon
day night, did not come up for
discussion when Tobin made
his report that d a s h ed the
hopes of many for restoration

The long-range debate devel-
oped as a variety of other coun.
ty organizations, including the
Democratic State Central Com
mittee, Joined the Committee on
Public Schools to add their
their names to the list of civic
groups urging the council to re.
consider its position.
Among them were the four
county branches of the Amer
lean Association of University
Women, the Montgomery Coun-
ty Civic Federation, the Allied
Civic Group, the League of
Women Voters, the Council of
Parent Teachers Associations,
and a group of students repre-
senting six county high schools.
County Attorney T0bin, In
effect, told the council Tuesday
1t is legally powerless under Its
charter to either transfer funds
from Incorporated surplus or
provide a supplemental emer-
gency appropriation to offset a
crisis that has brought school
supporters to the boiling point.
In response to the contention
that the county has some $780,
900 in Incorporated school
funds to apply to the new teach
ers' pay, he insisted the govern

Wilson Asks
Industrial
Tax Waiver

The Montgomery County
Council has agreed to con-
slider abolition of a tax on
manufacturing materials
that currently brings the
county an income of from
$4,000 to 100000 a year.
The proposal was made by
DR.. Thomas Wilson, who pre-
dicted that elimination of the
tax would serve as an induce
ment to industry that "in the
long run" would bring added
taxes that would more than
offset the temporary loss.
without setting a date, the
council agreed to conduct a pub
lie hearing on the proposal
after County Manager Mason
A. Butcher suggested that the
procedure, although not re-
quired by law, would be In ac-
cord with standard practice.
Specifically, DR.. Wilson sug-
gested that the council waive
the tax on manufacturing equip
ment, machinery and raw mate
rails used by local industries.
He emphasized that he was not
proposing elimination of the tax
on finished materials produced
by the concerns.
The levy has been abandoned
In many areas throughout the
state, including neighboring
Howard and Prince Georges
counties, DR.. Wilson declared,
and as a result has brought
them additional income from
industries that have capitalized
on the waiver.
He said he felt a similar move
here would be a major step In
the countys program to attract
industry as a source of taxation
to ease the burden now borne
largely by the Individual home
owner.

Top Palmer
Resignsin
Rockville

The chief architect of Rock
ville's ambitious urban renewal
program has resigned to accept
a position with a New Jersey
firm, City Manager Walter A.
Scheiber announced this week.
Russell L. Montney, 40, has
supervised development of the
city's plan to replace its blight
ed downtown area with ultra
modern stores and other build
ings for the past two years.
The plan is nearly completed,
Scheiber said, and is to be sub
mitted soon to the Federal Ur-
ban Renewal Administration for
preliminary approval.
The plan, Scheiber told the
Rockville Chamber of Com
merce last week, is a five-seg-
ment one devoted to land use,
disposition of property, residen-
tial and business relocation, fl.
nancial considerations, and
miscellaneous"
Approval is expected by the
end of August, he told the bust
nessmen, after which a public
hearing will be held, then for
NAL adoption by the city gov
eminent, and launching of nego-
tiations with landowners in Oc-
tober.
Scheiber said he was very
gratified at the partnership"
which he said has developed be.
tween the city and the business.
men during development of the
plan.
Rockville, he said, h a s
escaped the pitfalls" that have
plagued some other cities in
urban renewal and he cited as
an example st. Louis where
nine years elapsed between the
time planning started and ac-
tual land purchases were begun.
1t also appears, he said, that
the city's one-fourth share of
the projects cost may shrink
from the earlier estimate of
$4,000 to only 100000.
He also noted that 1t had
been decided under the plan that
the Confederate Soldier statue
in Court House Square will face
south when 1t is relocated.

Then, suddenly. the Castro
militia informed him that his
property and business had been
confiscated and his bank bal

1T was simply because I had

De La Rua says.
When he decided to flee to
the United States, bringing his

enough money for passage. The

When the De La Rua family
arrived in Miami they reported
