SUBURBAN NEWS. “MISS TAKOMA™ IS SELECTED CAS TAX REVENE FGHT S OPENED Arlington Chamber of Com- merce Acts to Prevent Loss of Funds for Roads. BY LESTER N. INSKEEP. Staff Correspondent of The Star. CLARENDON, Va. September 20.— Paced with the possible loss of approxi- mately $60,800 of road building revenue through the efforts of representatives of rural districts to have the system of distribution. of the gasoline tax changed, the board of directors of the Arlington County Chamber of Commerce last night acted upon the suggestion of Delegate. Hugh Reid and addressed a letter to the Board of County Super- visors asking that they take immediate steps to forstall the loss. Reid, who is chairman of the com- mittee on legislation of the trade body, addresced the board at some length on the proposal to change the gasoline tax law to this extent. Prevented Act's Passage. By only a narrow margin did he and delegates from various cities and small counties prevent the passage of such an act at the last session of the General Assembly, he said, which would have re- duced Arlington County's share of the gasoline tax revenue from $70,000 to $10,000 annually. Under the present law, Reld explain- ed, Arlington County's share of the gas- oline tax is based upon the amount of annual taxes paid to the State by the county. Under the proposed legislation the tax would be distributed according to ares which, since Arlington is the smallest county in the State, would give her the smallest amount of the tax. Despite. the fact that the law was retained in its original state at the last General Assembly, plans are under way to make a change at the next ses- which takes place in January. Reld -declared. To this end. Reid and State Senator Frank L. Ball rushed to Richmond last Tuesday when they learned that the special committee ap- inted to draft a new law was meet- g there, They returned firmly con- vineed that a new law will be passed unless drastic measures are taken to prevent. Tt is with these funds that the county builds most of its mew roads, Reid claims, a greater portion of the other road revenue being needed in the up- keep of existing highways. Board Has Not Aected. Reid said that he was advised that the Board of County Supervisors has never taken any steps to prevent the loss of this revenue, so his committee was instructed to follow the letter with an effort to hold a special meeting with the county governing body to make plans_to retain all of this money. At last night's meeting the board of directors of the chamber decided upon October 16 as the date for their quarterly membership meeting _and banquet. Under the tentative plans this dinner will be held in the Wash- ington-Lee High School and will be for members and their wives. Full details will be announced later by P. P. Wood- bridge, executive secretary. Henry C. Morris, chairman of the 5-year-program committee announced that he has been advised by the Vir- ginia Polytechnic Institute that an in+ dustrial survey of the county can be made between October 5 and October 15. He was instructed to proceed with the arrangements. Five new members were admitted last night. They were: C. J. Ives, mor- ticlan; B. J. Benton, real estate: Ar- lington Tile and Marble Co.; William Clever, plumber, and the Arlington ‘Times.

BALTIMORE, Md., September 20.— Discovery that intercity busses operated by nine companies were in faulty oper- ating condition and did not comply with Maryland State rules was made by the Public Service Commission as a result of an inspection conducted following | another accident to a bus on the Wash- | ington-Baltimore boulevard in which two people were injured. The accident was ascribed to a faulty steering gear. The commission's inspec- tors, it was said, found that practically or another which would prevent abso- lute compliance with the regulations. Defects Found. Among defects found were faulty stop lights, speedometers, emergency doors hard to close, no permit displayed, a portable aisle seat blocking an emer- gency door and no fire ext! lisher, In a letter sent by J. L. Wickes, trans- portation engineer, to each of the bus companies the viclations were listed and the companies directed to correct the trouble immediately. “Should subsequent inspections show that violations stilk exist, the permit for each vehcile at fault will be summarily revoked,” Mr. Wickes warned. The commissioners are inclined to be- lieve that the time of an hour and 35 minutes for the Greyhound and People’s Rapid Transit lines and one hour and 45 minutes for the Nevin busses between Washington and Baltimore was too fast, considering the amount of road con- | struction under way on the boulevard.

WINCHESTER, Va., September 20.— Harvesting of & commercial apple crop of approximately 700,000 barrels, or 2,- 100,000 bushels, was begun ‘today in Frederick County by an army of pick- ers, graders, and other em- ployes. The work will continue under favorable weather conditions until the latter part of October. The picking of the late varieties was begun about a week earlier than normal, due to the season haying been advanced by trees blossoming the middle of April. A large part of the crop of the Win- chester district was sold on the trees recently by owners to vepresentatives of commission houses, who do the picking d marketing, but a number of the argest growers have consistently de- clined to sell on the trees, preferring to pack their fruit under private trade marks and do their own marketing. Much of the Frederick County crop, al ways the largest in Virginia, goes to | British markets, ‘While No. 1 grades are shipped in barrels, most of the other apples are sold to by-product plants, and those lo- cated here have begun a busy season, which will last until late in the Winter.
