BY WALTER WURFEL
Star Staff Writer

Fairfax County Democrats
and Republicans uneasily are
watching the three-way contest
for the Board of Supervisors
in the Dranesville district,
where an independent candi-
date is posing a serious chal-
lenge.
Officials of both parties fear
that if Mclean area voters put
an independent on the board
it could set a trend that would
spread to the county's other
districts.
They are saying that the in
dependent, if elected, would be
ignored by the other six super
visorS-that an independent
wouldn't be given the chance
to represent the voters as they
should be.

ton who supports a strong code
of ethics for public officials.
He wants tighter control over
zoning procedures, including a
quasi-judicial procedure for
zonings inconsistent with the
existing master plan to give the
county staff time to review and
revise the plans.
"All the planning staff does
now is put in 80 per cent of
its time reviewing coming ap-
plications." he said.
Mr.. Short, like all the Demo-
cratic Board candidates, op-
poses the IS textbook rental
fee being charged elementary
students in the county this
year. He said the fee under
mines the concept of a free
public school system and is
baSically wrong.
A full-time paid board of
supervisors is another of his
goals. Mr.. Short thinks the
change should be sought in a
voter referendum in time to
make the switch in 1868. State
law won't allow the county to
pay its supervisors more than
$4,000 per year for their one
day-a-week meetings.

with local issues.
Secondly, she dismiSses the
idea that an independent would
be ignored by the other board
members. Mrs. Bradley cites
the success of Supervisor Anne
wilkins, a Democrat. who has
joined with Republicans to con-
troll major appointments and
board organization.
Mrs. Bradley believes that, If
elected, she might represent
the tie-breaking vote between
the Republicans and Democrats
on the board.
Only one other independent
is seeking election to a county
board seat. He is Paul N.
Peachey in the Lee district.

JFK Tog to Go

BY the Associated Press

Some day soon. if you fly to
the newly-named John F.
Kennedy Airport in New York.
the tag put on your baggage
will bear the initials JFK.
The Federal Aviation Agency
said today this designation
definitely has been decided, but
still undetermined is the timing
Of the change from IDL. the
designation used for Idlewild,
as the airport formerly was
called.
In order to have uniformity,
the FAA makes the decision as
to the lettering on baggage tags
for air travel. However, the air
lines themselves have to supply
the tags.
Involved in the timing of the
change from IDL to JFK,
therefore, are such economic
factors as the present supply of
the old tags and obtaining
supplies of the new ones.
FAA said, in due time. 1t also
will change the airport's desig-
nation on aeronautical charts
