PAPER REPEATS
AND DEMANDS
BOOK AUDIT

ROCKVILLE, Md, March 81.
The grand jury is in session here
today to investigate charges made
by the Montgomery Independent,
local newspaper, against Major
e. Brooke Lee, speaker Of the
Maryland House of Delegates,
and county officials, as demanded
when the board of county COM
missioners and Major Lee went
before the jury Wednesday and
asked for a full airing.
States Attorney Robert Peter,
jr., has been going over the data
and will submit it to the jury
today. The grand jury asked
the attorney for the board Of
commissioners, Capt. Joseph C..
CisSel, to lay before them the
most Objectionable articles ap-
pearing in the Independent.
Have File of Paper
Major Lee and the county COM
missioners went before the grand
Jury and demanded that it inves-
tigate the charge of the Indepen-
dent that they had been guilty of
misfeaSance of office, or indict the
publishers of the paper for crimi-
nal libel. They presented nearly
complete file of the Independent,
with the stories and editorials
complained of marked.
The Independent has charged
irregularities in the handling of
the monies obtained through bond
issues for construction of the new
courthouse, and that county
road between Silver Spring and
Chevy Chase led through a dev-
ious and unnecessary course in
order to benefit the property
owned by the Lee family.
The Independent is owned and
controlled by what is known as
the "anti faction" which is fight
ing the Democratic machine built
up by Major Lees father, and
now headed by the son.
Paper Sticks to Guns
The Montgomery Independent
went to press last night reiterat-
ing all the charges and demand
inG that a certified public &C,
countant be brought in to ex-
anime the county's books since
1921.
I'VE have made no retractions,
w. F. Casey. editor of the paper,
declared. And last the county
commissioners are in perfect &C,
cord with the Independent, that
an investigation is needed. We
want the courts to appoint a
certified public accountant to go
over the books Of Montgomery
county since 1921"

EACHO PLEADS
ROAD FUND

ASHTON HEIGHTS, March 81.
Richard L. Eacho. advocate for
both the Straight-to-the-bridge
road and the Lee Boulevard, said
today it is nothing short of a
disgrace that the county board
of supervisors do not find a
way to appropriate the needed
100000 with which to purchase
the rights of way.
With the Federal Government
expending $15,000,0O0 in the
building of the finest bridge in
the country. no greater invest
ment could the county make than
to spend this small sum to assure
the completion of a boulevard
which means so much to the
future development of Arlington
county" said Eacho.
1T is just such things as this
that make the citizens Of Airing
ton county want to petition Con-
gress to take back, as a part OF
the District of Columbia, Arling-
ton county, which, prior to 1S46,
was a part of the District Of Co
lumbia," he said.

PORTER BILL

The National Association of Re-

Henry, of Chicago, secretary. Off
cially Endorsed yesterday the Por-
ter bill to establish a separate
narcotics bureau.
Following a conference with
Representative Porter (R0, Of
Pennsylvania, Henry instructed
E. c. Brokmyer, counsel, to ap,
pear tomorrow before the House
Ways and Means Committee to
support the legislation, designed
to strike a smashing blow at the
dope traffic.
Due to a misunderstanding of
the purpose of the bill, the asso-
citation, in an editorial in its Off.
cial magazine some weeks ago,
had bitterly assailed the legisla-
ton and called upon druggists all
over the country to protest against
it's passage.
The American Medical Associa-
ton, which also had attacked the
bill, is expected likewise to with
draw its opposition. Porter today
will have a conference with the
association.
Pointing out the dope evil as
one Of the greatest afflictions
confronting civilization, Repre-
sentative Sirovich CD, of New
York yesterday introduced res
olution proposing a conference
of all nations in the United States
in 1881 to take effective means to
restrict opium to medical and
scientific purposes.
Elaborate machinery, including
internationalization of all drug
factories, would be set up. An
international board would under
take to control and supervise
production and manufacture of
opium and habit-forming drugs.
