Duvall "was the most capable person I could turn to." Alderman Robert L. Spaeth 3d) questioned last summer whether Mr. Duvall could legally hold both positions and the matter was referred to the Housing Authority. The authority then asked the state attorney general's office for an opinion. Mr.

Duvall said today that the attorney general's office was unable from the facts presented by the authority to make a ruling as to whether he is a city employee or a federal employee and suggested that the authority itself decide the question. When asked why the authority has yet to make that determination, Mr. Duvall replied: "This thing has just ground to a halt, and I think that is because no other authority members or anyone in city government are particularly interested in getting rid of me." "I don't know if I am actually a city employee and I don't want to create a legal hassle," Mr. Duvall added. "I do know that I have time to work at both positions and I enjoy doing so." Two other persons would apparently be affected by the city ordinance.

They are: Joseph F. Rodowsky, a member of both the Planning and Zoning and the Civil Service Commissions, and Milton Haskins, who is a member of the Housing Authority and the Zoning Board of year, 75 per cent of which is paid by the federal government. The Housing Authority chairman does not receive any pay. Captain Griffin, who was not reappointed to the authority last year by Mayor Moyer, asked that Mr. Duvall be removed from one of the two positions.

He claimed that Maryland law "recognizes the danger of compromising the independence of a housing authority if a member is a city employee." Maryland Law Cited Maryland law on housing authorities states that no authority member may be an employee or an elected official of the city for which the authority is created. Eugene M. Lerner, the city attorney, said he believes that Mr. Duvall's position with the Neighborhood Improvement Program is actually a city job and that the authority could remove him as chairman. However, he said the City Council can take the initiative by passing the ordinance.

Mayor Moyer said he was unaware that he might have been acting unlawfully when he appointed Mr. Duvall to the project director position, but he added that he does not think Mr. Duvall has in any way compromised himself by holding it. He said he chose Mr. Duvall when the Neighborhood Improvement Program was in danger of losing federal funds because of "improper manage jail yesterday by Judge Joseph By C.
