Veto Over Plans
The county commissioners,
irked at the influence Of the
Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commits
sion's advisories, won a new
weapon to hold over the BIZ
county agency.
Planners now will not be able
to draft master coming plans
without first getting county
approval. Once completed, the
plans must be submitted to the
county for approval or rejec-
ton. The county now holds this
authority over coming maps.
Planners, however, won a
victory in a bill requiring the
county to act on proposed sub
division regulations within six
months, or else have them be-
come automatically adopted.
On the other side of the card,
the bill requires the park and
planning commissions to act
on subdivision plans within
so days or else they will be
automatically approved. Build
ers have continually COM
planned their projects have
been held up by park and
planning commission red tape.

ANNAPOLIS, April 2.-Con-

County bills liberalizing liquor
laws and enlarging the county
commissioner board died in the
Maryland General Assembly
last night, the victims of an
l1th-hour legislative logjam.
Prince Georges State Senator
H. Winship Wheatley, jr., Dem

Finance Committee chairman,
said he cleared as many bills
as he could in the last week of
the session, but had to give
time to major Statewide
issues.
THE bills came to me rather
late in the session, and I did as
much as I could" Senator
Wheatley said.
In the waning hours Of the
90-day session, the Senator's
Finance Committee was still
being referred bills passed
earlier in the day by the House
Of Delegates. This included the
controversial me asure to
change the States aid-to-edu-

One of the last major Prince
Georges bills enacted was a

Police Chief William Durrer

The tragedy occurred about

the darkened home for providers
after hearing noises outside his
bedroom window. AS he stood
in the kitchen, he saw a sill

When there was no response,
he shot at the figure. His AZ
year-old wife screamed and fell
to the floor, a bullet in her
back. She was pronounced dead

Except for a short floor fight
over the primary bill, the four
Democratic members of the
delegation seemed TO work with
the six Republicans without I'M
due friction.
Not all of the must" legisla-
ton was successful, however.
Senator GUIDE, making good on
a Republican platform promise,
attempted to push through a
bill restricting members of both
bi-county commissions from US
ing their posts in pleading zon-

sion cases before the Council.
The bill was defeated in the
Senate by the motion Of Sen
ator H. Winship Wheatley.

He claimed the bill was too

put several law firms out Of

tor Wheatley, who is also
Majority Leader, won the fight
on a straight party-line basis.
Also lost in the legislative
mill was a Senate resolution
which would have asked Mary

ANNAPOLIS, April Mont
gomery County's rookie dele
lation to the General Assembly
ended its first session last
night with a high batting av-
craze.
Although controlled by a
minority party, the delegation
enacted laws strengthening the
role of planning in developing
rural areas, increasing the
sources of tax revenue for the
county and asking for Federal
aid in breaking the superhigh-
way construction bottleneck
with the District.
One area OF friction within
the delegation itself was IN
the field of liquor legislation.
After initial complaints from
delegates who wanted to allow
iquor-by-the- drink in some
restaurants, the lawmakers
agreed to withhold any changes
in the law pending a study.
Republican State Senator
Gilbert GUIDE and the COP
controlled delegation in the
House succeeded in overriding
the Democrats in the only
open split between the parties.
The Republicans created a nom
partisan school board primary
election, even when most of the
four Democratic members APP
pealed 10 the heavily Demo-
cratic House to vote the bill
down.
"MOSt Important" Passed
I'VE have enacted all the bills
which we consider most impor-
tant for this session" said Dele
gate James R. Miller, jr., chair
man of the House delegation.

He described the taxing pow
er bill as lone of the most I'M
portant pieces of legislation for
the county in many years"
The taxing Dill will enable
the county council to tap addi-
tional sources of revenue. The
bill gives the county the same
taxing powers now used by
Baltimore City and Baltimore
County. The new sources, which
could relieve some of the burden
on homeowners paying real
estate taxes. would include a tax
on hotel ana motel rooms, and
on some classifications Of util-
ity users.
Senator Guide, amending two
other bills, also created a pack
age of legislation that bridges
a direct link between the ex-
tension of sewer service in the
upper county and land plan
ming.
Master Plan Required
The omnibus bill, which was
passed by the House, will de-
mand the existence Of a de-
tailed master plan in any area
before sewers will be allowed to
extend into that area. Under
the bill, an exception can be
made under emergency con-
ditions." Then the council can
approve the extension with
agreement of the Maryland-Na-
tional Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission and the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission.
