Special Dispatch to The Star. GROVETON, Va,, February 18.—The | Arlington-Fairfax and Alexandria Real Estate Board at its dinner meeting at the Belle Haven Golf and Country Club here on Saturday night went on record as indorsing the purposes of the Cram- ton bill for the extension of the park- way system of the District of Columbia along the shores of the Potomac River into Virginia and Maryland. ‘While certain provisions of the pres- ent bill were not entirely satisfactory to all the members, the board felt the idea of a park from Arlington Memorial Bridge to Great Falls should be indorsed, and decided to enlist the co-operation of the Virginia State Chamber of Com- merce and the National Association of Real Estate Boards in an effort to se- cure passage of the bill at the pres- ent session of -Congress. Committee Appointed. W. S. Hoge, jr.; Guy Church and John Graham were appointed a com- mittee to confer with Representative Cramton and other persons to ascer- tain what the board can do to further the passage of the bill. The same com- mittee, with the secretary, Mrs. Ruby Lee Minar, was instructed t& outline to the national association the importance to Virginia of the passage of this act and to ask the association to work for its passage through the member asso- ciations in every State in the Union. A discussion of the necessity for action during the 1930 session of the Virginia State legislature on the bill which will be introduced to create the Virginia Metropolitan area of Wash- ington, enlarging the powers of the present Virginia Park and Planning Commission, &s outlined by W. L. Bragg on February 4 at Annandale, at the joint meeting of the Chambers of Commerce of Fairfax and Arlington County and Alexandria City, and the Real Estate Board, resulted in the board's decision to refer this question to the legislature committee of the Virginia Real Estate Assoclation, of which Leroy Brown of Richmond is chairman. This committee will be asked to co-operate with the local com- mittee from the different agencies in Northern Virginia, which will endeavor to have an appropriation for park and planning work put in the governor’s lbl:dget and passed by the next legis- ature. Signboard Committee Named. W. C. Clever of Clarendon and Charles Smith of Lyon Village were appointed a signboard committee and instructed to endeavor to have the Arlington County Board of Supervisors pass an ordinance regulating the loca- tion of signboards along the highways. It was also decided to communicate with the billboard committee of the | National Association of Real Estate Boards in Chicago, which has been working on the problem for ‘a number of years and has compiled informa- tion of assistance to local boards. The board decided to present to the Arlington County Board of Supervisors the resolution adopted at the last meet- ing disapproving the granting of a per- mit to the Auth Co. for the erection of an atbattoir in Arlington County. The action at the board’s last meeting was not unanimous, but a letter from Col. U. 8. Grant, 3d, which was read at Saturday's meeting resulted in putting the board on record as a unit. Col. Grant wrote that while he had no ob- jection to an abattolr as suech, the members of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission were unan- imous in their disapproval of the loca- tion of an obattoir on the proposer site. Any industry of this type, with a permanent and expensive plant such as Mr. Auth has pro] to erect, would interfere with the development of this section of Arlington County as planned by the commission, said Col. Grant, President K. A. Brumback has ap- pointed Guy Church chairman of the Northern Virginia Bureau committee, to be assisted by W. S. Hoge, H. C. Morris, C. W. Fitch, C. A. Keefer and John M. Minar. This committee will incorporate the bureau and arrange to put it on a firm financial basis with a permanent organization and definite budget. e Francis-Martin Wedding.
