Epeclal Dispatch to The . .cr. ROCKVILLE, Md., August 23.—Real | progress toward the crection of the much-agitated new Rockville courthouse was made at a meeting of the court- | house building committee here yester- | day afternoon and the way apparently | cleared for the early beginning of build- ing operations. Plans for the proposed new structure and the purchase of the block immedi- ately to the west of the present court- house square as a site were given con- sideration and both matters were, it is understood, placed in such position as to virtually clear the atmosphere cf the uncertainty regarding them lhalI had all along existed. ‘To acquire the desired land, con- demnation proceedings were definitely decided upon so far, at least, as one plece of property is concerned, and it was thought possible that similar action might have to be taken to obtein an- other part of the desired block. Price Agreements on Others. Price agreements for the other nine ieces comprising the block have about en reached, it was reported by the special committee, composed of Berry E. Clark, Preston B. Ray and Lacy Shaw, recently named to conduct the negotiations, The chief stumbling block, the spe- cial committee reported, is the Presl terian Church property. The county commissioners recently offered $£30,000 as a fair price, holding that amount to be ample for the purchase of a desir- able site and the erection of a more modern and better-in-every-way build- ing than the precent edifice, but a com- mittee representing the congregation ap- peared bafore the speciel committee yes- terday morning and submitted $42,000 as the lowest acceptable price. Con- demnation proceedings in this case weve definitely decided upon. The O. W. Anderson property, on Commerce lane, bctween the Masonic ‘Temple and the Farmers' Benking and t Co’s building, is the case not yet adjusted, it was reported. The difference, however, between the spe- cial committee and owner is, it was stated, small, and the opinion’ was ex- pressed that legal proceedings would probably not be necessary. It was de- cided, though, that if a price is not agreed upon within two days condemna- tion proceedings would be promptly in- stituted. Two Sets of Plans. Two sets of plans, similar regarding size, but different as to architecture, ‘which were submitted by the two court- house architects, in conformity with suggestions of the building committee, were given careful consideration. One called for a building presenting a finished appearance, but permitting additions without marring it from an | architectural standpoint, and the othe provided for a structure incompleted in looks and clearly indicating the inten- tion of enlargement. ‘The committee decided to have the two architects combine their concep- tions into one set of plans calling for a finished-appearing structure that could be added to, from time to time, without impairing its looks. When the new plans are ready, a meeting of the court- house committee will be held, it was decided. It was stated jpt the meeting that the building it is proposed to erect at this time would be adequate probably for a long time and would call for an outlay of approximately $400,000, and that the entire present program, in- eluding acquisition of the site, would involve an expenditure of not more than $550,000 to $580,000, all of which is available. The present courthouse bullding will, it was decided, remain intact until it is found necessary to 1aze it to make room for an addition 4n the proposed new structure, a pas- sageway to connect the two buildings to be constructed.

Attorney- Hadley Libbey, spokesman for the delegation which appeared in | opposition, contended that the estab- | lishment. of a cemetery would be injuri ous to the church and school property. and would not result in any public | benefit. The delegation filed a petition | bearing about 100 signatures with the | commissioners urging them to deny ! license for the ccmetery. | ‘Warren Adams, assistant engineer for the Park Commission, informed board that his office had disapproved | the application primarily because of its { general policy to defer the location of | cemeteries until the commission’s major jroad plan had been completed. The | | proximity of the Seat Pleasant Senool ! also was a factor in the commission’s | | opposition to the project, Adams said | "Both applicants were represented by | Attorney S.

Engineer Adams concurred in | this, but pointed out it would not be | necessary to zone the entire tract com- | mercial for that, pugpose.

Earnest and Morriz | Binswenger, both of whom personally appeared before the board in an effort | { to show the need for the change. Lot in Mount Rainier. Earnest’s petition involved a lot in Mount Rainier, which, he said. should be the nucleus of a business district. A | petition of approximately 25 property owners in the vicinity opposing th change was filed with the board, Low- ever, and Adams explained the Park Commission was of the opinion that enough area in that neighborhood was at present zoned commercial. Binswanger asked permission to estab- boulevard at Beltsville. R. Breaden, representing the Beltsville School Board, the vestry of St. John's parish and the individual property holders in the neigh-; borhood, told the board it would estab- lish a “dangerous precedent” if the ap- plicant’s request were granted. The property adoins the Episcopal Church land, Adams pointed out, is in a strictly residential district, and inasmuch as there already is a concentrated com- mercial area in Beltsville, the park commission disapproved Binswanger's request, which would have given “spot- ted zoning * There b~ ~ no opposition to.the ap- plication of John B.
