beam leaning across the ditch.
Just a few inches to the left of
the mud was a slab of solid
concrete.
But Mr.. Barley landed in
the plot of red mud the size
of a dining room table. The
force of the fall drove his body
about six inches into the mire.
HE hit sort of on his side"
said Robert Watson. a time
keeper on the construction
project. "They came down
here and lifted his head out
of the mud, but they didn't
want to move him until the
nurses came"
Co-workers said Mr.. Bark

age basin from 1866 to 1865, a
$4,000 project that would

cry County General Hospital

county council.
In Prince Georges County,
the commission moved up an
estimated $979,000 project for
sewers in the Thinkers Greek
basin north of Clinton, from

get sewer construction in their
area sooner than originally pro-
posed in the five-year program

substantial city contribution for

Matthias Offsets
Virginia Move

Rep. Charles McC. Matthias, Jr.,
has introduced a bill intended to
offset the effects of a recently.
enacted Virginia measure that
would force Federally-employed
Maryland residents to pay Vir.
ginia's income tax if they are
employed in the Old Dominion.
The Matthias proposal contains
a reciprocity provision that no
government employee shall be
taxed in the state where he
works If his own state does not
impose a similar tax on work
ers living in the other jurisdic-
ton. In effect, it would prevent
Virginia from taxing visiting
workers from Maryland as well
as the District of Columbia,
since neither imposes a tax on
Virginia residents.
