The ordinance was passed for the first reading Monday night by the Salisbury City Council. Downtown merchants and members of the Central City District Commission proposed the creation of a new parking district and the expansion of the existing district. Merchants and property owners within the districts are taxed to pay for expanded parking areas now under way through urban renewal. THE PRESENT TAX is 60 cents per $109 of assessed val- uation. The new parking district would include F.

Main St. merchants and property owners. Parking district No. 1 was created about five years ago when Main St. merchants appeared at City Hall asking to be taxed to pay for prime parking areas to serve the downtown shopping area.

Sirce that time, Salisbury has begun two urban renewal projects, using federal funds to enlarge upon the original proposal. Land is purchased through federal loans and grants. The loans are repaid through bond issues floated by merchants and property owners within the parking district. Parking meters on the new lots also defray costs, but the difference must be paid by those in the district through the special tax.

Final passage and a public hearing on the budget which retains the 1964-65 tax rate of $1.24 per $100 of assessed valuation is scheduled for June 14 at City Hall. Councilmen will hold several budget sessions before the final passage in attempts to smooth the mayor's proposal to their tastes. MAYOR MORRIS said nothing in the new budget is spectacular. His proposed levy for approaching fiscal year is $215,352 more than was appropfor 1964-65. The proposed general fund (See BUDGET, Page 6) Recovering Plane Crash Victims At Ocean City Proves Grim Task By BOB CARPER Of The Times Staff OCEAN CITY "It's a gruesome task at times, but you sort of get used to it after awhile," commented one of the Maryland State Police divers after the recovery of two bodies from plane wreckage Monday just off the beach at English here.

The diver, one of four from the state police, along with four divers from the Tidewater Fisheries Commission and three Coast Guardsmen were part of a search team that pulled the bodies of Nancy Carole Tyler, 26, secretary to Bobby Baker, and the pilot of the plane, Rob- lert H. Davis, 44, of W.Va., from the wreckage. The plane crashed in 25 feet of water about 600 yards off Baker's, motel, the Carousel, on Sunday. THE SEARCH began' at 8 a.m. with the Coast Guard boat and the Tidewater Fisheries' boat dragging the area where witnesses said the plane had gone down.

Baker, dressed in a dark suit and light silk tie, stood on the deck of a chartered boat in the search area and watched while the long process of probing the ocean bottom got under way. The chartered boat, "Captain Bunting," owned by Talbot Bunting and skippered by Orlando Bunting, of Ocean City, was sonar equipped. The device spotted an obelectronic, during the search about 300 yards offshore, but divers could find no trace of the plane. WHEN SEVERAL more passes were made through the area by the Capt. Bunting and nothing could be found by the sonar device, the pleasure craft moved a short distance away and the other two boats began dragging with grappling hooks.

A report from the Coastl City To Ask Health Dept. Swim Area Requirements ents The Salisbury City Council Monday night said it would ask State Health Department officials to list requirements needed here for safe public swimming areas. Swimming areas in Salisbury were closed two years ago when local health officials told the council that the waters were unsafe because of pollution. Since that time, no swimming has been sanctioned by the city in the Park area, Johnson's Lake or Schumaker's Pond. Demand for return of public swimming areas has been growing.

Monday night, petitions signed by hundreds of area residents and members of 15 civic and social organizations were presented to the council asking that the city and county, in joint venture, provide public swimming and instruction in the City Park between Schumaker Dam and the zoo. THE PETITIONS asked that the swimming facilities be placed within boundaries designated as safe by the health department, have a safe bottom, and be supervised by qualified lifeguards. The petitions asked a minimum expenditure be used. Mrs. Fred M.

Gardner, champion for public swimming here, said nothing elaborate was desired at the present time. She did, however, mention the desirability of having pools on the west side of town and at the Youth and Civic Center in the future. Mrs. Gardner said it was her understanding that the Wicomico County Council is willing to aldiscuss the swimming problems Two Retiring Educators Honored By DORIS G. CALCOTT Of The Times Staff Miss Helen Wootton and Miss Florene Erwood won't be going to school next year.

After 42 years of teaching, they will able to set their own schedule and come and go at their own pace. The two retiring teachers were honored at the final meeting Monday night of the Wicomico Junior High School Parent Teacher Assn. Former pupils of theirs who are now grandparents came to honor the two teachers who came to Wicomico County in the fall of 1925 and have made their impact on the youth of the county since that time. Both Miss Wootton and Miss Er wood have served in various educational fields; Miss as teacher of history, supervisor of high schools and principal School of Wicomico Junior High since 1954; Miss Erwood as teacher of the blind, of the first and second grades in Eldorado, as teacher of English and journalism, and since 1954 as guidance counselor in Wicomico Junior High School. Mrs.

Gordon M. Weitzel, president of the Wicomico Junior High PTA, was in charge of the program honoring the teachers and conducted the business meeting at which the slate of officers was presented and the new officers installed by Royd A. Mahaffey, superintendent of Wicomico County Schools. The Rev. Lewis C.

McKinney, pastor of Allen Memorial Guard station said that someone had spotted a body floating in the water just off the beach. The Coast Guard boat pulled in its hooks and started north, all the way past the Delaware line, before deciding that the report had apparently been a false one when nothing was seen. Again the hooks were lowered over the side of the boat. Pieces of the plane's wing were retrieved from the water and the search was intensified in the area where the debris was floating. Still no results.

At noon, "body drags" were brought aboard the Coast Guard (See SEARCH, Page 6) General Wessin Will Not Resign Dominican Post By ROBERT BERRELLEZ SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic (AP) Brig. Gren. Elias Wessin Wessin changed his mind Monday night about resigning as a peace overture to Dominican rebels. The U.S. government apparently hoped the loyalist Brig.

Gen. Antonio Imbert Barreras, would talk him into resigning. "The question of Gen. Wessin's resignation is a matter between Gen. Imbert and Gen.

Wessin," a U.S. Embassy offiin a statement. "We did understand from cial sources that Gen. was going to resign at 4 p.m. Monday.

We now understand that he is reconsidering his decision," the statement said. The United States had pressed for Wessin's retirement as a peace gesture the rebels, whose forces he fought with planes and tanks before the arrival of U.S. troops. Many Dominicans held him responsible for the air bombardments of Santo Domingo that took more than 1,000 lives. Col.

Francisco Caamano (See GENERAL, Page 6) OCEAN CITY, Md. (AP) Investigators tried today to raise the wreckage of the plane which plunged into the Atlantic Ocean Sunday, killing Carole Tyler and pilot Robert H. Davis. Divers recovered the bodies of Miss Tyler, 26, secretary of Bobby Baker, and Davis, 44, of Huntington, W.Va., from the fuselage Monday. Divers said the body of Miss Tyler was in the front cockpit of the plane, in which Davis had taken her for a sightseeing trip over this busy resort.

Witnesses said the plane plummeted after reaching the crest of a loop offshore from Baker's Carousel Motel. James Crosby of the Ocean City Information Center said the red and white plane was a dual control craft and it was "normal procedure for the passenger to ride in front and the pilot in back." Officials of the Civil Aeronautics Board's Bureau of Safety, who were on the scene, hired a commercial barge with a crane to bring the plane to the surface 250 yards offshore. They did not plan to drag it ashore with a winch, a spokesman said, because a sand bar between the sunken wreckage and the beach might damage the plane. CAB officials indicated it would be sometime before they could assemble the plane's wreckage in an attempt to learn the cause of the accident. Baker, who resigned under fire as secretary to the Senate Democratic majority in 1963, participated in the search for the bodies and helped identify them.

Miss Tyler and the Carousel were mentioned prominently during 1964 senate hearings into Baker's outside business activities. Probers tried to learn the details of Baker's purchase of a $28,800 Washington town house occupied by Miss Tyler and a another secretary, and about his financing of the motel construction. Miss Tyler, a former high beauty queen from Lenoir City, refused to testify about the town house purchase but later told newsmen that Baker had participated in the transaction only because she and her roommate were unable 10 get federally guaranteed financing to buy it themselves. In Baltimore, officials in the Maryland chief medical examiner's office said autopsies would be performed there on the bodies of the two victims.

Miss Helen Wootton, retiring principal of Wicomico Junior High School, and Miss Florene Erwood, retiring guidance counselor, are smiling as they proudly display the silver service given them Monday night by the Parent Teacher Assn. of the school. Del. E. Homer White presented the gift and made the eulogy for the PTA.

The two teachers will share the gift in their home on Spring Hill Rd. with the city, but that county officials felt any overture should come from the city since the proposed areas are within the limits of Salisbury. City Councilmen expresed willingness to discuss the situation. Council president W. Paul Martin said the council's problem is the lack of information.

He noted the council at one time was told that the city zoo was the cause of pollution in the park stream, and again, that it was because of nitrates used on farm land draining into the water. He said state helath regulations facilities concerning public stringent. ming are The council agreed that a list of requirements from state health officials must be studied before any money is used to develop swimming areas which later may be closed down because of some infraction of health regulations. "If the state health department will tell us what we need for swimming, then we will be willing down with the County Council and discuss the problem," Mr. Martin told Mrs.

Gardner and the 10 or 11 persons at the council meeting Monday night. Man Injured When Car Strikes Tree An 18 year old Girdletree man was admitted to Peninsula General Hospital after striking a tree near Snow Hill, State Police said today. David W.

Carl Dumire, secretary; and Mrs. Norman McIntyre, treasurer. Following the installation, Mr. Mahaffey gave a eulogy for the two teachers for 42 years of "dedicated service to thousands of youth." He thanked them for setting high ideals and goals. A surprise visit to the PTA meeting was made by a group of classmates of the class of 1926, led by Milton White as spokesman.

"We booby-trapped the teachers all the way but they were unshaken. It is nice to know that our paths crossed your paths in 1926. We thank you for setting high standards," Mr. White said as he presented each of the teachers with a gift. MISS WOOTTON was spokesman for both when she thanked the business men and women for their gifts.

Del. E. Homer White, who was a pupil of the two teachers and has had two sons under their tutelage, gave the eulogy for the PTA, remarking that his father prophesied in 1925 that "the two ladies will leave their marks on this community."

The state court ruled last week that the State Health Department must grant water and sewerage permits to Robert C. Walker, who owns property on the 33-mile sand spit off the coast of Maryland and Virginia.

An assistant attorney general, Robert C. Murphy, told the board that "as far as the state is concerned, the court decided the rights only of State Comptroller Goldstein suggested the Supreme Court appeal, saying it would give time to see what will become of the bill now in Congress to make Assateague a national seashore. Murphy said such an appeal probably would be dismissed, and would serve only as a delaying tactic. Six other applications are pending for sewerage facilities, but have been held up awaiting results of tne Walker case. Murphy said, however, that he does not think it is mandatory that these be granted.

He said the Court of Appeals ruled against the Health Department pecause it did not supply sufficient information, including a personal inspection of Walker's property, to back up its claim that the land was not able for a septic tank." "You can say to these other six applicants, 'We will now study your individual parcels of the assistant attorney general said. He also suggested that the state might consider making a complete geological survey of the island to back up its position that it should not be developed with individual sewerage systems. "This would be a very solid legal basis for rejecting future applications," Murphy said. The board, the department land the state natural resources agencies are supporting public development of the island. Most Worcester County officials, however, are strongly opposed to making the island a national park, saying it will remove potentially valuable land from the county tax rolls.
