VIRGINASECTON ASLINOF TS State Senator Ball Pictures Washington Flanked' by Municipalities. Special Dispatch to The Star. PAIRFAX, Va, December 11.—The development within the near future of three great cities last night was fore- cast by Senator Frank Ball addressing the monthly meeting of the Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce, held in the. Grange Hall at Masonville. ‘Washington, the Nation's Capital, will | be flanked on either side by a great Maryland metropolis, with Virginia building up a city across the Potomac. He stated that the 65,000 people now resident in the metropolitan area of Virginia should realize that the sooner they begin to think and plan in terms | of that city rather than as separate | units, the greater the results to be achieved. Northern Virginia must keep in _step with the planning and zoning achievements of other modern cities if the mistakes of the past are to be | avolded and corrected, he said. His statement that the greatest mis- take in planning in this generation was the location of the new Mount Vernon Boulevard along the river route instead of on the hills, was greeted with great applause. The lack of any central body emgowered to act with authority for Northern Virginia in dealing with the National Park and Planuing Commis- sion was blamed: for the failure of Vir- ginia to enforce its wishes in the loca- tion of this boulevard, he said. Senator’s Bill: | Senator Ball stated that in the blll% which he will introduce at the next gession of the State Legislature, he is | wedded to no particular personnel Zor this planning commission. He will weleome suggestions from interested citizens, his only stipulation being that they be local men and given absolute Jurisdiction. He stressed that the only city plan ever adopted in this section ‘was that of the original city of Alex- an , 185 years ago, to which no later additions have been made. Neither Fairfax County nor Alexandria City are zoned, and while Arlington County is now in the throes of its first zoning ordinance, no work is being done with reference to the neighboring land. “It is high time that these three sec tlons. realize that their destiny is one,’ he declared, “and that the job be given | to some one who is not too occupied with other interests.”” His plea for the development of this area from the Virginia viewpoint rather than as a adjanct to Washington was also ap- plauded. . Chambers fo Confer. ‘The chamber authorized President E. H. Allen to.call a meeting of the directorate of the Fairfax, Arlington and Alexandria chambers to discuss with Senator Ball the specific provi- sions of his proposed bill. This meeting will probably be held in Alexandria or other central point, as soon as can be arranged. L. L. Freeman, Fairfax County member of the House of Dele- gates, pledged his interest and assist- ance In putting this project through the next Legislature. . ‘The chamber last night instructed the¥ president to call a meeting of the | directors next week to discuss with | Senator Ball and Delegate L.

SECTIONS AT 0DDS ININDUSTRY FIGHT Rosslyn Business Men Work for Trade—Lyon Village | Against Commercialism. BY LESTER N. INSKEEP, Staff Correspondence of The Star. LYON VILLAGE, Va., December 11.— ‘While the business men of Rosslyn were launching & drive for'the commercial development of their community, the Lyon-Village Citizens’ Association, under the leadership of Robert N. Anderson, president, was last night taking definite steps toward the prevention of a com- mercial development that would sur- round what is considered one of the highest type of residential sections in | the county. 3 At-a joint meeting of the executive committee and zoning committee, held at the home of J. C. Buchanan, the secretary, it was decided to appoint a committee to appear before the next meeting of the board of county super- visors to ask the sevocnnon of the per- mit recently issued to Mrs. Marie Clark Bell for the erection of a filling sta- tion on the Lee Highway at the inter- section of Rucker avenue. First Step in Fight. The appeal for the revocation of the permit, the first step toward the curb- ing of the commercial development, is based upon an ordinance that was passed last May by the supervisors in which it is provided that no commer- cial or industrial structures may be erected until the request for a permit has been presented to and approved by the zoning commission. Since the zon- ing commission disapproved the filling [ station permit, leaders in the associa- tion believe that the supervisors ex- ceeded their authority in overriding the action of the former body. Anderson was elected chairman of the protest committee. Other mem- bers are: Hiram M. Crichton, chair- man of the zoning committee, and Rob- Anderson stated that the fuses to consider the plea for the revo- cation of the permit.

Special Dispatch to The Star. TAKOMA PARK, Md, December 11.—After a bitter contest of many months, waged by citizens for removal of the siding and unloading platform of the Baltimore & Ohio Ralflroad, the Public Service Commission of Mary- land has issued an order granting the road permission to remove the siding. Attorneys representing the railroad have assured the town authorities that the pending injunction suit brought by the road to restrain the town from interfering with the unloading of freight on the town park, adjacent to the siding, will be dropped, after a con- ference on details. Action of the commission was in com- pliance with a request by the railroad for the abandonment and removal of the team track on. the metropolitan branch of the railroad -within the next 12 months, the action being in response to the wishes of residents and town officials. Maintained 40 Years. In its petition the railroad informed the commission that for 40 years it has maintained a freight team track or siding at a train schedules and freight and pas- senger tariffs, as North Takoma, within the municipal limits of the town of Takoma Park. The team track has been used as the business demanded for the spotting of car load freight con- signed to that point and as additional trackage space for the placing of car- load freight consigned to Takoma Park, D.

Complaint .of Residents. Residents in the immediate vicinity complained of the noise, dirt and heav- ing hauling. 'The road has been using the strip of land between the tracks and Takoma avenue as a driveway or approach to the siding, in order that teams and other vehicles might have access to the freight cars at this point. On April 16, 1928, the Town Council passed an ordinance declaring it a mis- demeanor for driving across any of the public parks of the town by wagons. trucks or other vehicles, punishable by fine or imprisopment or both. The rail- road company was_informed by the town authorities_ that the ordinance was applicahle to the strip of land where the siding and unjoading platform was located and any person or corporation violating the ordinance would be sub- Ject to arrest, i The railroad gontended that the claim of the town to the ownership of. the strip of land-was without merit, but was willing to abandon the tracks and provide facilities for its_putrons elsewhere, in deference to the will of the town authorities.

ROCKVILLE, Md., December 11.— If the consent of the county commis- sioners .is obtained, the Silver Spring Service Company, 1st Infantry, Mary- land National Guard, will sponsor a series of boxing exhibitions in the State armory at Silver Spring, it has been announced. Application for & permit was filed with the county commissioners here yes- terday by Capt. Joseph C. Cissel, com- 'manding¥officer of the Service Com- pany and attorney to the board of com- ‘missioners, and it was announced that Commissioner Lacey Shaw, who is in charge of the Silver Spring area, will hold a hearing in his office, in the county building at Silver Spring, at 7 o'clock next Monday evening to enable protestants, if any, to subit their ob- Jections. Public Views Desired. “Although under its rulings it does not appear that the State Athletic Commis- sion has any authority to supervise or license boxing bouts held in State ar- mories under the auspices.of a National Guard organization, and although the authority of your board is coincident with that of the commission,” says the application, “yet we deem this .action desirable from a public standpoint. In the first place, we do not desire to hold any kind of exhibition in a State build- ing maintained through public taxation if the taxpayers are opposed to the’type of activity, nor can we, as a National ‘Guard organization, oppose the desires of the public in.a matter of this kind. ‘We _therefore feel that the citizens of N Electrical eadquarters 4t&C ~Coffee Sets Manning-Bowman Urn Sets combine distinc- tion with utility in Christmas gifts.

No professional promoter or prize ring operator has, or will have, any control or financial interest in any of the activities. All profits after the payment of necessary expenses will be deposited to the company fund and used for increasing the facilities and com- forts of the armory as a military station and community center and for provid- ing additional recreational features and comforts for the company members in the armory and at camp. “We assure you that upon the devel - opment of any legitimate opposition to the granting of this permit we will im- mediately withdraw the request, and that should the exhibitions, if permit- ted, act in any manner as a community deterent they will be terminated.” —_ $3,500 FOR AUTO HURTS. Special Dispatch to The Star. DANVILLE, Va, December 11— Bruce McBride of this city, who sued Dr. W. O. Lee for $20,000, has been awarded ' $3.500 damages in the Cor- poration Court by a jury. McBride claimed to have sustained serious injuries as a result of a collision between the car in which he was riding and the physician’s car being driven by his minor son. The defense was that Fred Allen, who was driving the car from which McBride was thrown, was intoxicated at the time. Chiming and Charming Those without chimes commence at $14.

The re- sult is that the commissioners through- ‘Would Result From Expansion to Be Decided December 30. out the State have stated that they are | powerless to make any reassessment and | they expect merely to copy the last as- sessments. P, 'B. McCandlish, who led the dis- | cussion last night, stated that Fairfax | County should spend not less than | $5,000 to make a fair and businesslike | assedsment of its land. There are two points to be considered in making this assessment—first, the many present in- equalities, one man’s property being as- sessed high, his neighbor’s low; second, the universal system of assessing land value at one-third to one-fourth their cash value, which in turn is accompa- nied by a misleadingly high tax rate. As the law now stands, the supervisors | are unable to supplement the Commis- sloner’s salary with additional funds to make & fair assessment. The first at- tention of the chamber will, therefore, be directed to devising ways and means by which this can be remedied, includ- ing enabling action by the Legislature. The chamber last night voted over- ‘whelmingly in favor of having this re- assessment made by a board of three, a farmer, business man, and real estate authority, this board to sit periodically at the court house to allow taxpayers an opportunity to protest any grievances before the assessments are made final. ‘The. chamber last night as on many previous occasions, went on record as sponsoring an assessment of real estate at approximately its full market value with a corresponding reduction in the tax rate. W. 8. Hoge, jr, Thomas Keith, and P. 8. McCandiish were appointed a committee to represent the chamber in negotiations with the Standard Oil Co. relative to the development of the corner property on Main and Payne streets in Fairfax fropting on the Court House. The chamber indorsed theaction of the supervisors in request- ing the construction of a building of colonial architecture, and asked that the company place its tanks far enough back from the right of way to allow for the eventual widening of the Lee Highway through, the town. ‘The chamber voted unanimously to request Gov.-elect John G. Pollard to appoint Hubert Williams of Fairfax County a member of his new State Board of Education, C. C. CARR TO SPEAK. Fairfax School League Head to Ad- dress Centerville Grange. FAIRFAX; Va., December 11 (Spe- cial)—C.

Other speakers on the program will | be J. U.

Buckley, treasurer of the Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce, who will outline the proposition sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce for an increase in land assessment to. more nearly cor- respond with real values, providing the Board of Supervisors will agree to a eorresponding decrease in the rate of taxzation. PPN Americans have been negotiating for the purchase of Lymore Hall, the seven- { work on the addition to. the Bethesdu~ | Ccunty Ministerial Union, held at the Lyon Village. Lee Highway Zoning. He is also instructed to include in the letter a request that the Lee High- way boundary be zoned “residential A,” and that the tentative zoning of Wilson Boulevard be changed from *“general and local business” to “local’ business and residential.” The association be- lieves that this would care for the pres- ent situation. The chairman of the zoning committee is also preparing pe- titions that will be signed by the resi- dents directly affected by the zoning and will present them to the Zoning Commission before its last meeting. ‘The executive committee last night set the night of December 17 for the next regylar meeting of the association. The president announced the following dele- gates to the Civic Federation: Monroe H. Stockett, Willlam D. Medley, Joseph Haley and Anderson. Delegates to the Arlington Distriet Council are I. C. Buchanan and Robert Freer, In sharp contrast to the action of the Lyon Village body, the business men of Rosslyn last night started a drive for industry by having placéd on the river bank, at the end of the Key Bridge, a large sign bearing the following: ‘“More Business at Rosslyn Will Help Pay for ‘Water, Schools and Parks.” According to John E. Fowler, Rosslyn business man, this is the first step to- ward a concerted drive for the type of industry that will provide the revenue with which to overcome the present shortage in funds needed for the gen- eral development of the county.
