City Councilmen Reverse Their Field On Capital Improvements
by Al Skolnik Late attendants at last Friday's budget meeting saw a striking
example of open-field running, as city councilmen reversed their positions like Saturday afternoon football heroes.
It all started when councilman Dave Champion moved for the addition of $1,500 to pay consulting engineer's fees for plans and blueprints for a specified number of capital improvement items: Hillside-Greenhill Rd. connection, shopping center renovation widening of Woodland Way from Hillside to Forestway, sidewalk 1along Lakeside Rd., and Lakeside Road improvement.
Councilman Cliff Simonoon objected on the grounds 1iba,t there are many other desirable capital improvements and that all projects should be eva:lualted first as ito the-tr priority.
Councilman Lew Bernstein also objected on grounds thalt ttherc is no assurance the funds would be sufficient to cover the HillsideGreenhill Road connection.
The motion was ·passed after reference to individual items was deleted.
Bernstein <then moved tha!t the Hmside-Greenhill cuit~through be iniltiatoo by providing specific funds fur level~ng and grod,ing the connection.
Champion, .l\fayor .Eldigar Smith, and councilman Bill Hoff voted "No" on the grounds -thalt suclh leveling would leave unpaved certaJin sections of Hillside which were now paved, untrl such ,time as the city got around to complemng the pavJng. Irt was ,better, t-hey argued, that 'the eooire ,project be done at one time and n-oit piecemeal.
Simonson, who had argued earlier against idenltification of pa:rticular ca,piital improvemenlts withoult assigning priority values, found himself suppoliting Bernstein.
Undaunted. Bern-stein then went back to Champion's orjg,inal motion and proposed that the HHls•ideGreenhill Road connection be iden-
-=------------tified as a separa.te item for which engineeri ng plans would be drawn up.
Champion and Smith opposed this on grounds ibhf!>t the mobion .would give preference to a single item. Bern1:1tein poi.med out tiha t the budget already contained a great many ca,pital 1mprovem en1t ;jtems tha:t had been singled out for pref erred treatmenlt.
Hoff then proposed a compromise. I<t was, in effect, Champion's odginal motion •to include a ll •the five aibove-menitioned capi tal improvement it~ms in a s ingle bundle. This secured the support of Smilbh, but Bernstein and Champion now r eversed the'ir positions.
Cha mpion voted aga inst t he motion ,that he hn.d originally sponsored and Bernstein voted for the same motion which he ha d turned down earlier. Simonson w ent back to his original position ,tha.it a n evaluation of aH crupital improvements was needed before pulling out any paclicular ones for action.
The compromise passed 3-2. All five counc-ilmen pledged to
support ,the paving of the HillsideGreenhill road connection when ii-t comes up in due course. City manager James Giese bus proposed that a separate long-range capital improvement "budget be considered betiween regul,ar "budgets, witlh tlhe goal of adoption by March 1 of each year.

Tax Rate Only $1.07 Though Budget Increased
A $487,650 municipal budget for 1964-65 calling for a tax rate' of $1.07 per $100 assessed valuation was adopted by the city · council on Tuesday, June 9. This tax rate is 24 cents lower than . last year's rate of $1.31 and the lowest in the city's history Forthose whose property has been reassesed upward, the dollar tax outlay will not be proportionately reduced. In a series of meetings last week the council lopped $42,850 off the $530,500 budget pro-· posed by city manager James K. G:;..:.ie:.;s;.:e:.;.. __________ _
The $42,850 decrease wa s mainly a chieved by elimina tion of a $27,050
reserve for conversion of the tax year, $6,000 for a paid fireman, a nd
$5,000 for tennis ciourits renova,tion and construclt:don. In addition, the
council reduced the reserve for pay
adjustments from $15,000 to $7,500, and the reserve for contingencies
from $10,000 to $8,000. The councH
also sul"bstwtuted a $1,000 Mmited lighting program for Braden soft
ball ifield for a proposed $5,000 new lighting -system. Other i-tems re
duced were ltlhc -sandblasting of underpasses ($1,000) , Youth Cen.ter
building improvements ($800), and
clerical help for the Recreation Director ($500). F -inally, rtlhere was
a dec,ision to use $5,000 from the
buildling fund instead of general revenues to provide parking lot lighting improvements for the fire house.
Offs~ng these cuts to s<ome ex.tent were increases over the proposed budget. Approximately $10,-000 addfitional was allowed for attorney and la nd planne.r fees in conneotion with the zondng battles facing lihe city, $3,600 more for landhca,pinJg suppldes, .playgroun.d equi,pmenit, a nd pav'ing of pathways, and $500 more for contributions :to Little League, Babe Rwth, and Boy,s Club. New items added to the budget were $650 for widening the Centerway entrance to the east pa,rlting lot, and $1,500 for engineering fe es in connection with plans for-capital illllJlrovemenlts. The budget also was amended to provide for an 8 percent increase in the city manager's salary.
New Tax Rate
The budget estimates thaJt $236,-200 wHl be raised from sources other tha n 1Jhe real property tax (inc-lud.ing $6,315 from ,surplus ), leav'ing $251,450 to be raised through tJhe real esta te levy. Alpplying this a mount against bhe a,ssessed valuat ion (average a mounlt) of $23.5 million yields a tax rate of $1.07.
The adopted budget is $113,720 or 30 percent higher than last year's fisca!l -a,p<prop:iii8Jtlions of $373,930. 'Dhe ,populaltion of Greerubelt is expected ,to grow by IJhe same propot1tion during bhis period. 'Dhe tax 1,ate, however, will be lower than last year, mainly ,beca use of the la rge •increase in the tax base pal'ltlly •based on reassessment but mostly on new properties· corni<ng on the ,tax rolls.

Manager Giese is Panelist On the program at bhe annual
conference of the Ma ryland Municipal Lea,gue a,t Ocean City last Saturday was Greenbelt's · city manager James K. Giese. He shared a panel w:ilth Robert Edwards, City Administra1tor, College Park on the topi,c "Financing Municipa l Governmen,t".
Giese talked on State and local revenue sources.

Swimming Pool
Swlimm.in,g pool passes are still avalilalble and may be obtained a,t
bc:Yth the municipal , pool and the treasurer's office. Now that hot weather ha.s arrived, sales a:re expected to increase as Greenbellters "get inlto the SWiim".
Becall'Se of the increasing interest in tlhe Master Plan, additional copies have been sen,t to the city offices and are avaalaJble to the 1-ubllc.
va1lua tion was only $13.9 million. Other frllf'luencing factors a r e theg,rowtth in r evenue from sources other tiha n the p,ropetity tax : inventory busiinetss tax, waste collection Cih.arges, swimmfog pool fees, and ltlhe city's share of St.'llte-col)eoted ,taxes. One item tihe city canndt courut on this year is wamhous~· renltal revenue of $4,200. NASA has· announced it w'ill no longer rent these quarters.
Tax Conversion Reserve
'I'he •council voted unan!irnouS'ly to elliminate the reserve for conversion of the <tax year wthk!h must take place by 1966-67. Councilmen Dave Champion and Bill HofCpointed out that overw,helrn'ing public op'inion was agaiinst precollecting taxe-s for tJhis pUT!pO'Se. Of 113 r epliics received firom a mailed questionnaare ,to property o,wners, 96 opposed the reserve, including such lar&"e owners as GHI and Springhill Lake.
Champion added hlmlt pllll'IS wer~ in the mm to introduce State legislation tihait would permit municipalities ,to ,borrow ,tJhe money needed for c:onverslion (so that the tax raJte would not have rto reflect the enitlire increase in one year) . Councilman Lewis Bernstein felt that it was up to tihe individual homeowners ito aiccumulatc money for ,this conltingency, and moved tlhat the city manager inform each taxpayer of the situatiion. Councilman Cliff Sim-O'llson asked lflhat developers a,lso be requir<;<J to infonn prospecitive ,purchasers of homes that they would be faced with. this extra tax in 1966•67.
Tennis Oourts
By unanimous ,action, the council' deleted $5,000 for tennijs court renovation and constru!ction. Simonson explained tliaJt !the courts n eed· a long-range planning program. Whrioh would encompass construe-· tion of new courts, oriented in a diffe rent direction, with perhaJpS some dispersion throughoult town. Until ,th~s long-range plan is prepared, be felt it would be unwiseto &]?end money to renovalte thepresent courts which he declared will still be playable for seve ~ year's.
The $6,000 item for a ,paiid fireman was deleted, a,wa!iting a report from a sipc·Clial commifttec re:. garding the feasDbi1ity of such an arrangement. C_ounoi1 sta/ted. tha't it would ta,ke funds from t'he contingency account if ·i,t is d ecided later to employ a pa:id firem an.

A Commendable Bud~ et · In adopting the 1964-65 municipal bud?,"et, the city council has
taken a long stride forward in bringing Greenbelt abreast of its t'&.:;)~::isibilities. The budget takes account of the growth of the ,community and the need for additional se.rvices. It makes a start o.~ whittling down the backlog of needed projects that the city has been unable to undertake under the tight budgets adopted in -previous years.
Among the highlights of the budg-et are the addition of 4 full-time policemen to give more complete round-the•clock service, the establishment of a separate parks crew to recondition the city's parks and playground·s and the Lake area, and the speeding up. of a road-maintenance and parking-lot construction program. Additional sums also are allowed for landscapin'{ supplies, playgr.ound equipment, and recreation instructors. At the same time, due mainly to the reassessments and large increases in the tax base, the tax rate was dropped 24 cents.
The council also decided to eliminate the reserve for conversion of the tax year. \Ve recognize that the overwhelming majority of property owners polled voted to eliminate the reserve, presumably preferring to pay the entire extra half-year's tax in 1966·67 when clue a'1d when the tax base may be much greater. We also recognize th.at t here is some hope that legislative relief will be vot~d by the St te that will permit the ciy to spread the cost of conversion over a period of years in the future.
Nevertheless. the council must ask whether its action has served the entire public interest and strengthened the city's image. We are mindful here of those who will find the extra taxes onerous if not spread over a period of years, of those who will be moving into Greenbelt in the next two years unaware of the added tax burden they face, and of the orobleMs of developers who will b? t:r11ing to sell homes in the year that the tax rate jl1mps 50 per <ient.

Third Sabin Vaceine Offered on Sunday
The third dose of the> Sabin oral polio vacc:ne will be given at the <..,.,n~er ..,chuol and Greenoelt Jun;or High School oa Sunday, June 14, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
There are only two valid reasons to defer taking the Sabin oral polio vaccine:
(1). If a person is acutely ill on the day of the feeding (June 14) or,
(2). If one has had a smallpox or measles vaccination in the last three weeks.
All citiens of the metropolitan aree. are urged by their medical societies to turn out to take the vaccine. Even if persons m~ssed the first or second doses, they still need to take the Type II vaccine on June 14. The Type I and Type III vaccines may be taken later.
As with the Type I and III vaccines, a person simply eats a cube of sugar on which several drops of the vaccine have been placed. The entire process takes only a few moments. The cost is a voluntary contribution of 25c; however, it will be provided free to anyone who does not have the money to contribute.
There is no such thine; as bein:;; t:J old to take the vaccine. Any in· dividual who has not ha d the Sabin. vaccine can be a carrier bf polio, and it is only through total immunization of the area's population that polio can be wiped nut forever. Anyone who has taken the Salk shots is also urged by the medica1 societies to take the Sabin vaccine,
I nvestigation has indicated that many persons in the area believe that they should not tak~ the vaccine because of various allergies or diseases. The spokesman for the medical societies indicate that n either disease or allergy is a. reason for not taldng the vaccine.
The spokesman further stated that a person may, and should, take the oral vaccine even if he has allergies, including penicillin allergy.
There is more penicillin in a glass of milk than there is in a dose of the vaccine; however, people who fear even this infinitesimal amount should consult their doctor. The medical spokesman say further that the vaccine should be taken regardless of any basic disease process (diabetes, asthma, etc.) or if a pe;rROn has recently taken a Gamma Globulin or Salk Shoit, or is taking any other medicines.
The doctors also indicate that a person may take the vaccine even if vomiting on the day of feeding or if he has severe diarrhea. However, there is a possibility that the vaccine might lose some effect iveness. The doctors hasten to add that tlh·rough some effectiveness mig,ht be lost it is still better to take the vaccin~ and be assured of partial protection.

People who live in glass houses in Washington, D.C. may have Miles Glass Company to thank for the view!
This company has been the supplier and installer of glass and allied building products for many private homes since 1946. It has also worked on construction projects which have been cited by the Washington Board of Trade as award-winning buildings.
In addition, Miles has replaced so much glass in so many cars that if all the panes were piled on top of each other, they'd make a mountain many times higher than the Washington monument.
What is a leading glass company like this doing in the Yellow Pages?
The company feels that advertising is what helps a business grow-and that one of the best media is the Yellow Pages. • • • •
Yellow Pages advertising can help your business expand. It's a small investment that pays big dividends.
Find out what an advertisement in the Yellow Pages directory can do for you.
Call your C & P Business Office and ask for a Yellow Pages representative.
Mr. Walter Miles, Jr., president of the Miles Glass Company, says, "We know that people use the Yellow Pages. We get calls consistently from folks who say they saw our number in the Yellow Pages directory."

Talking to Baby Essential For Normal Development
The cooing and prattle most nl'others seem to instinctively lavish on their c'hildren isn't just so much "ba!by talk" Psychiatrists and pediatricians now recognize such maternal "gushiness" as higlhly important to the emotional development of children. The absence of such development, in turn, is a factor in · r..ental retardation. Indeed, moslt authorities agree that 75 to 80 per cent of the men'tal retardation in this country stems from a lack of emotional develop-ment:
Of course talk isn't the only thing that stirs interest, curiosity and intellect, factors which go to make up e1notiorual development in an infant. But it is one of the most readily ava;il31bJe means of communication between pn.rent and ohild; (even if they don't understand each other's words) and early conununlca,tfon is t he basrs for emotional development. Words, a nd the . aib!Uty to link tihem into thoughts, are hi-ghly importa.lllt tools of learning. If these tools aren't learned, the ch ild has difficulty de• veloping. He becomes, in effect, walled off f rom th e normal world AJbout him.
It is, of course, possible t9 overcoddle a child. Because r.ich stimulation of a child is good doesn't mean thait more sitrumuia,tion i.s better. He can be pushed too ha.rd, made to develop too fast, and this can .create its own set of difficulties.
The imporllant thine- is to make certain that your chft'ld does have loving stimu'la.tion; tihalt he gets the aJtJten'tion he needs to encourage his cur'iosity, interest and imagination.

A WEEK AT CAMP LETTS by Bernice Rowley
Fifth Grade Teacher, Cent-er School
"There's fun afield" was evidenced at Camp Letts when fifth grade pupils from Center School spent five school days away from their desks. In spite of various interests, this experience developed an understanding and appreciation of the ways of life in a natural setting, This has led to a study of communities of livJng things, meaning of interdependence, and balance in nature, and conservation.
We in Prince Georges County are fortunate in having an outdoor education school made available dur~ ing September and May. This pilot project has been developed by nterested staff members. Quotes from students' letters show their desire for the continuatio~ and expansion of the program in order that more boys and girls will have the same opportunity to participate.
Back in the classroom ag-ain with a wealth of matel"ia:l from their collections, notes, and snapshots, the students are continuing their studies of the outdoors. Social skills are being developed through committee work. A variety of ways of reporting and sharing information develops such skills as writing thank-you letters, research 'reading, writing reports, giving oral reports using notes or outlines, using art materials, making charts, vocabulary building, collecting and writing creative nature poems, and most interesting of all - the ability to use the microscopes, opaque projector, and micro-projector. All this is in preparation of a culminating activity-, an exhibit,
Planning precamp activities with the students is a part of the classroom teacher's responsibility. Students are aware of their responsibilities as to planning, purpose, and follow-up.: Setting a table, folding the flag, making beds, and trail etiquette were a part of the preparation for a fun-filled week at camp.
Observing students motivated by real life experiences, the friendships made with pupils of other County schools, and their relationships with their student counselors, is revealing. A class survey indicated the pupil's preference for the waterfront activities, especially casting and canoeing. These are opportunities which couldn't posibly be offered in the self-contained classroom. Most interesting of all was the opportunity of observing students w hen they realized that learning can bei fun.
School's Out "School's Out" may be a happ~
occasion fr.ir area children, but it has a. different meaning for the motorist. It means extra danger, the American Automobile Association warns.
During the next three months. the normally quiet hours between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. constitute a new danger period for potential traffic accidents involving school age children, pal.1bicu'1a1rly in restdential areas and around shopping centers. Children at play are not apt to be thinking about the rules of safety and motorists are unaccustomed to watching for them during these hours, reminds George R. Hammond, Manager of the Traffic Safety Department, D. ·C. Division, AAA.
"A child," Mr. Hammond points out, "has an uncanny ability to concentrate on his play and disregard everything else around him. It's the motorist's responsibility to watch out for the child and never assume that cMldren Will detect your car."
"Parents also have a major responsibility," he added, advising them to instruct their children as to proper play areas. "The street," he says, "is a very hazardous playground and so is the driveway."
