Scattered Frost Is
Evident This Week

Weather over the past several
weeks has been a mixture of hot
temperatures and unreasonable
GOODNESS. The past week has been
on the cool side. There have been
reports of frost in glade areas dur
ing the past few days, but with no
apparent injury to growing things.
The unusual GOODNESS was eX-
pected to continue for several adj
ditional days.
Weeks Resume Given

weather showed the following:
Last Wednesday cloudy with 60
degree temperature. Thursday was
clear and up to 60 by 10 o'clock
but down in the early 40's in early
morning. Friday was mighty close
the frost line but 50 by $50 and
up to late COS before evening.

Progress Of Rec
Project AZ Lake
Uncertain Stage
Petition Filed Objects To
Method Of Financing

Tic proposed million dollar rec
rcaticn project at Deep Creek Lake
to mako the area a ycar-around re-
sort. has been in the federal pro-
ccssing mill through the Area Re
development Administration, but
IFS progress at this time is not
known.
The project was calculated to
provide year-round recreation
center near Marsh Mountain at
McHenry and would include eat
ing establishments, bowling alleys.
swimming pools and a hotel.
Financing of the project would
be under depressed area bill en-
acted in 1861 by the Maryland legis-
lature providing for state and fed
eral aid where the governing body
of a county determines that a state
of acute unemployment exists.
Garrett county commissioners
agreed to contribute $4,000 as the
county's share, on a loan basis, with
state and federal governments and
private investors contributing the
balance, all under loans.
A petition containing the sigma
lures of 1876 Garrett county citizens
Directing to the proposed financing
of the project has been forwarded
to the ARA, according to Mrs.
Martha Glotfelty, Bittinger, mem
Der of the House of Delegates. Mrs.
Glotfelty, also signed the petition,
took the position that such a
project should be financed by pri-
vate capital with banks making
necessary loans.
She said she felt the free enter
prise system was being undermined
when the government went into
such business.
Some of those signing the petit
ton owned property and places of
business along the lake, and in
and around Oakland. There were
also farmers. She stressed that the
only objections were to the meth
cd of financing.
Helmuth M. Heise, director of
the Deep Creek Lake. Garrett Coun-
ty Promotion council, and presi-
dent of Recreational Industries,
Inc, stated that he had been try
ing since 1858 to do just what the
project would attempt to do-break
down the seasons for year-rOund
resort area He said the opposition
seemed mainly to object to the
use of federal money amounting to
$3.50 600 for the project. He pointed
out the government was financing
50 million project in Tucker
county, and that the state of Penn
sylvania had taken over the area
on Laurel mountain.
He said the proposed project was
conceived and would be developed
on the basis that where trade
increased everyone benefits.
He said several utilities and in
dustries are standing by waiting
to see if the project goes through
He believes the project would open
gates to other public enterprises
and buildings.
Mr.. Heise explained that no
grants are involved in the financing
of the project, as all money is Dor
roWed and must be repaid. He said
the established tax basis of the
project, should it materialize. would
produce $4,000 revenue each year
and on this basis the $4,000 in
vested by the county would be re-
turned in five years.
In a letter to The Republican
this week Mrs. Glofclty said, in
her opinion, real and genuine prog
ress would come when the indiVidu-
al initiative, creativeness and re-
sourcefulness we're protected and
encouraged.

There has been little doubt
since early this year that Coun-
ty board members felt COM
mitted to building a IS million

issue this year.
County Manager Bert W.
Johnson said a bond issue OF
$40 million would add $400, 000
to the county's annual debt
service, which could mean an
8 to 10 cent increase in the
tax rate. He said the owner
of a $4,000 home would pay
an added $40 in taxes a year
