Montgomery Appeal
For Special Tax Levy
Studied by Gov. Lane
By the Associated Presi
ANNAPOLIS, Md„ May 3.—Gov.
Lane took under advisement today
a plea of Montgomery County cit
izens and legislators to sign a 1947
legislative act empowering the
county commissioners to levy special
taxes approved by the Bureau of
Revenue Estimates.
Opposed to the measure at the
hearing held by the chief execu
tive was the Maryland Franchise
Motor Operators Association, whose
representatives, P. D. Spofford of
Hagerstown, and Maj. William N.
Archer, said y any local govern
ment unit needed more money, re
vision of State tax laws was the
proper remedy.
State Senator Roy Tasco Davis,
Montgomery County Republican,
jeu me ueiegauon attending me
hearing.
He told the Governor, "a minority
of our county citizens now pay real
estate taxes, but most of them use
our county facilities. This meas
ure would in no way interfere with
the State taxing program, but it
would enable the county to meet
education and road requirements."
He called for opposition to the
bill from county residents, but no
opponents were present.
Among groups backing the bill
was the Montgomery County League
of Women Voters, which favors a
graduated income tax.
The women voters were repre
sented by Mrs. J. Rene Hemingway,
Takoma Park, and Mrs. G. Beale
Bloomer, Chevy Chase, who favored
the emergency measure to "help
meet the particular problem facing
Montgomery County."
Others Speaking for Bill.
Others speaking in favor of the
bill were Irvin H. Weasink, legisla
tive council chairman of the Parent
Teacher Association, Bethesda; Dr.
Grace B. Holmes, chairman of the
Educators Committee of the Ameri
can Association of University Wom
en, Maryland division; Rhees Bur

County Civic Federation; Mrs.
Arthur Stack of the Federated
Women's Clubs, Chevy Chase; dele

and John R. Reeves; John A. Reed

ation; Wesley L Sauter, county!

in Puget Sound.

On the airwaves . . . and on the highways · · . it's a
"Merry Oldsmobile" year. Folks everywhere are singing this
grand old eong—and singing the praises of the smart new
Oldsmobile car! This is the car with the smooth-as-a-melody
styling. The car with the rhythmic, coil spring ride. The
car that's as far ahead of the times as next year's popular
tunes—thanks to General Motors Hydra-Matic Drive*.
"Just forget the clutch and gear, All you do is sit and steer!"... You've probably heard these words
on the radio—in the modern, up-to-the-minute version of "Merry Oldsmobile" inspired by GM
Hydra-Matic Drive*. For Hydra-Matic is the only drive that eliminates the clutch pedal completely
—the only drive that shifts gears automatically through four forward speeds!... Visit your Oldsmo
