SUBURBAN' NEWS. PLUMBING LAW 5 HELD INVALID Capitol Heights Ordinance Ruled More of-Revenue Than Regulatory Measure. BY GEORGE PORTER, Staft Correspondent of The Star. CAPITOL HEIGHTS, Md, August 19.—Holding that the plumbing ordi- nance of Capitol Heights is more of a revenue law than a regulatory measure, State's Attorney J. Frank Parran of Prince Georges County has advised the mayor and council that the town ordi- nance is invalid. Parran rendered his opinion after a request for a ruling on the ordinance, had been referred to him by the State | attorney general. The matter was brought to the attorney general’s at- tention after certain members of the town council had questioned the ordi- nance’s validity. Must Get Permit. The ordinance provides that a town permit, costing $10, must be obtained before any plumbing wprk can be done in the town. Mayor Thomas J. Luckett | declares he concurs with Parran in the view that the town has no right to col- Ject revenue from such a source, but believes there is some question as to whether the sum now required is a “reasonable fee” or revenue. In view of Parran’s opinion, however, | the mayor today said the council wouid | probably change the regulation “for | the benefit of the town” by reducing the fee. In his opinion Parran said that the| town & right to pass ordinances; regulating plumbing because plumbing is so closely connected with the health | of the town and the prevention of dis- | eases, but that such laws must now | be “revenue ordinances.” Views of Courts. . | “The courts have held.” the opinions say, “that because the charter did not name plumbing as one of your matters of regulation, a license provided by or- dinance was invalided. “All cases hold that under sufficient charter power, municipal corporations ( may require certificates or permit for lumbing. B “Yourgchuur‘ passed in 1910, does, not mention plumbing among - other things within your power. I, there- fore, think-the ordinance, being a reve- | hue one rather than a regulation, is| not within your power.” ROCKVILLE FAIR READY TO OPEN Favorable Weather Alone Is Need- ed to Make Big Event VY a Success. #pecial Dispatch to The Star.

Make Request of Zoning Commission. BY LESTER N. INSKEEP, Btaft Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT | HOUSE, Va., August 19.—Following & serles of arguments and counter-argu- ments that lasted during the entire morning the Board of County Super- visors today passed a resolution direct- ing that the opponents to the erection of a filling station on the Lee Highway, opposite the office of Lyon & Fitch, be given an opportunity to ask for a re- hearing before the Zoning Commission. The resolution, however, did not direct that the rehearing be granted. Foes Are Heard. Appearing before the board, Robert N. Anderson, president of the Lyon Village Citizens’ Association, asked for a reversal by the board of the decision made on Friday night by the Zoning | Commission granting Mrs. Marle Clark | Bell a permit for the erection of the filling station. In his request Anderson alleged that the citizens whose homes are directly affected by the proposed erection of the station were not given sufficlent notice that the matter was to come before the Zoning Commissoin because of the fact that the application for the permit was not made until} ‘Thursday prior to the meeting of the Zoning Commission on Friday. Attcrneys Charles T. Jesse and ‘Thomas Phillips, appearing for Mrs. Bell, strenuously cbjected to any change in the decision, claiming that the op- ponents, despite the fact that they had had more time, had not presented any additional evidence to support their opposition than was given to the Zoning Commission on Friday night. ‘The entire meeting of the board was ven over to arguments advanced not | only by Anderson and the attorne but by other persons not directly affected by the filling station, but who were anxious, they claim, to prevent any injustice to citizens of the county by decisions of the Zoning Commission. Among the latter were Capt. Crandal Mackey, former commonwealth's attor- ney, and Waiter U. Varney, corporation attorney for the town of Potomac. Fire Hazard Cited. Varney claimed that filling stations as a rule present fire hazards and that he, as a representative of the Volunteer Firemen's Association, wished to pro- test against their location at short in- tervals along one of the heaviest trav eled highways in the count: Opponents of the filling station in-} sist that its erection at that particular point will cause a financial depreciation to their property and otherwise create a public nuisance, while attornevs for the applicant hold that the territory is commercial and that other business | establishments are located near it on either side. While stating that he himself does not belleve the location a logical one for a filling station, Supervisor E. M. Hedrick of Arlingion district, said that he believes the Board of Supervisors should uphold the actions of the zoning commission wherever possible and that he, therefore, would make a motion that | the matter be referred back to the zon- Ing commission with the instructions that they might have a rehearing if they believed that sufficlent time had not been given the opponents for the | If they fail to see the necessity for a rehearing or if they have a rehearing and uphold their former decision, the permit is to | automatically become effective. All permits granted by the zoning commission are subject to the approval { of the Board of County Supervisors and unless the provision was made that the | permit become effective, providing the zoning commission did not reverse it: former decision, the matter would have to await the next meeting of the Board of County Supervisors, which takes place | on August 30.
