Don’t The council adepted resoluiions recom- | °nding the rental of the former First ctional Bank of Hyattsville Building | to house county offices in the metro- politan area, and requesting the Wash- ington Suburban Sanitary Commission | 1o report on the advisability of estab- | lishing trash cisposal plants in the | metzopolitan area. The latte: step was taken after three speakers hed delivered addresses dealing | with roadside beautification and plans for the George Washington Bicentennial. It was suggested by Prof. S. S. Stein- | berg of the University of Maryland that the’ trash disposel plants would aid materially in roadside beautification and prove seif-supporting, even if so small ® fee as 10 cents was charged all per- #ons using the plant. Survey Being Made. With the.co-operation of advertisers and billboard companies, the State Rceads Commission is now making a survey of all roadside signs preparatory to putting into effect the law to Fegulate and tax billboards, Maintenance Engineer F. P. Scrivener told the council. The new law goes into effect June 1, and Mr. Scrivener will be in charge of its enforcement. The present survey is being made not &0 much to check up on the billboards Bs to familiarize the State roads officials Wwith the advertisers, he said. The ad- wertisers are being advised by letter that the new law Will go into effect shortly gnd the State Roads Commission is in B position to enforce it thoroughly. The advertisers are sending in lists ©f their signs and the billboard com- | anies being issued metal tags to go them showing they have been au- fthorized by the State Roads Commis- #®lon and pald the necessary tax. “A reasonable length of time after | m 1," Mr. Scrivener said, another ey will be made by the entire main- denance force, when one day will be set apart for each chief to check up | on all signs in his section. Most of the legal signs will be tagged by that time, according to Mr. Scrivener, so that the check-up will not be difficult, yet will provide the State Roads Com- ission with a' complete list of un- jicensed signs. Advertisers to Be Notified. The advertisers and billboard com- panies responsible for the illegal signs then will be notified that they must comply with the law within 30 days or | their signs will be removed and they | will be subject to a fine as high as $500 | for each illegal sign. It was brought out during Mr, Scrive- her’s talk that the State Roads Com- mission does not have jurisdiction over signs in incorporated towns and special woning areas. As the metropolitan dis- trict of Montgomery and Prince Georges Countles is a special zoning erea, it would not have jurisdiction thfl"n e:gedpt "llhdglg “'i'onsent of the zoning ly. No iculty is expected In_securing this consent. . The roadside beautification program bf the State Roads Commission is “in the making” Engineer Scrivener said, but it hoped with the revenue derived from billboard taxes to do much in this | Fespect. This Spring about 10 miles of high- | Wways have been improved through tree | planting, while honeysuckle has been | planted on bare banks in cuts to im- | Pprove the scenery and prevent erosion. | Most of the tree planting was near Bal- | timore, but one planting was made on ;Jhe Crain Highway not far from Marl- | or0. Citizens will assist the Maryland Na- tional tal Park and Planning Com- ‘nission if they will advise it of any new signs have been erected illegally in their community, R. ' W. Rogers, chief architect of the commission, told the counell in an address on the plans of | that body for the Bicentennial. | Enforcement Depends on Public. ‘The law making an {llegally placed #ign prima facle evidence of the re sibility of the advertiser. and th ° to tax the billboards, both pas: recent Legislature, “arz enf tent thet the public d Oiiver Metzerott declared. 1¢ the public will take sufficient in- terest to note illegally placed signs, and F not complain, but report them e State Roads Commission or the commission, those groups will ze public sentiment is behind the ures and will be diligent in their enforcement,” Mr. Metzerott sald Reviewing plans for beautification tests among the communities of ce Georges County, Mark Shoe- maker, landscape specialist of the Uni- versity of Maryland, said that Laurel, Brentwood, Daniels Park, Berwyn, Hy- attsville, Mount Rainier and College ' v already entered competition. | work in the county during the was described by J.
