SANITARY DISTRICT BOND PLAN SCORED Commission Charged With {Trying to Mortgage District Suburbs for Builders. Special Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, October 29.—Charges that the Washington Suburban Sani- tary Commission is virtually mortgag- ing Montgomery and Prince counties in the interests of Washing- ton real estate speculators were made vesterday to the Public Service Com- mission at a hearing on the commis- slon’s application to issue $300,000 in edditional bonds. There is now outstanding $4,650,000. Under the law the commission may fssue bonds up to 2 per cent of the assessed valuation in the two counties, The bonds it now seeks to issue would be for 50 years at 415 per cent and would be redeemable after 30 vears. The money is wanted, the commis- slon contends, for sewer and water development in Takoma Park, Chevy Chase, Riverdale and Kensington. Protest Service Charge. c of Hyattsville was s before the com- afternoon when ng was resumed on the protest f residents of Hyattsville against a $32 service connection charge by the Washington Sanitary Commission. Fainter testifiel that before the water and sewerage service was taken over by the commission the town pald for all repairs and replacements in the mains and connections to the bullding line. Value of District. T. Howard Duckett, president of the Sanitary Commission, said the as- sessed value of the communities served in Prince Georges and Mont- gomery counties was_approximately £45,000,000, of which $24,000,000 was in Montzomery County and between $19,000,000 and $20,000,000 in Prince Georges. The commission denfes the charges ‘hat it is trying to mortgage Mont- <omery and Prince Georges counties in the interest of local real estate dealers. The commission has asked that the needed $300,000 be raised by a front- foot benefit charge, it was explained. Those objec to this admit that it 18 necessary (o raise the money, it is stated, but demand that it be raised Ly a general tax increase.

Mr. Duckett, speaking at the’ hear- ing before the service commission, ex- | plained the situation in the following statement: “If the apparent contentions of the protestants were to be adopted by the Sanitary Commission and the general tax rate increased to bring in an amount equal to that ratsed by the tront-foot benefit charge it would bear down more heavily upon the home owner than the present increase. It is estimated that a home assessed for $5,000 within the portion of the Wash- ington suburban sanitary district at present served by the Sanitary Com- mission would pay $7.50 annual in- crease, whereas the increased front- foot benefit charge on a G0-foot lot would be but $2.50 annually, only a third of the burden that would be as- sumed were the increase to be made as proposed by the complainants. The increase in the general tax rate pro- posed by the complainants would per- mit the vacant lot to escape prac- tically free.” The Maryland Public Service Com- mission, after hearlng the case, re- ferred the matter to the Maryland attorney general. His decision in the matter will be final, although the Sanitary Commission does not concede that it is under the jurisdiction of the Public Service Commission, as claim- ed by the complainants. Wilson T. Townsend, Caesar L. Atello, Phillbrick McCoy and F. Regls Noel represented the complainants. Mrs. Mary E.
