FOR BOARD
Arlington Citizens Group
Ignores G. o. P. Snub to Put
o. K. on Fred A. GosneII

Making its selections from the
list Of 81 candidates for member
ship in the county board of CON-
missionerS, the Better Govern
ment League of Arlington county
met at the Lyon Park Community
House last night and indorsed
five.
They are: Freeland s. Chew,
Lyon Village; Harry A. Fellows,
Falls Church; John c. Gall,
Aurora Hills; Fred A. Gosnell,
Country Club Hills, and Mrs.
Elizabeth B. Magruder.
One Republican Named
Interest in the selection by the
much-criticised league, composed
Of seven members from each Of
the II voting precincts, has been
at a high pitch since the launch
ing Of several attacks against its
policies by candidates.
Several candidates, including
the five Republican nominees, re-
fused to be considered by the
league. Nevertheless, Fred A. Cos
nell, a Republican nominee re-
ceived the organizations indOrse-
ment.
Criticism of League
Criticism of the league has been
based largely upon the ground
that it is an arbitrarily composed
group of citizens who are attempt
ing to make a selection Of the
county board instead Of leaving
such selection to the voters on
election day.
Another criticism of the league
is based upon the membership
therein of several delegates to the
Republican convention who are al
ready pledged to support that
party's nominees.
