PROTEST IN FUSION
VICTORY AWAITED
Action Expected This Week.
County Control and Jobs
at Stake.
BY JACK ALLEN,
Staff Correspondent of The Star.

ROCKVILLE, Md, November 10
Peace reigned along Montgomery
County's embattled political front last
night for the first time since the
opening of the bitter campaign which
eliminated five days ago in the nam
ing of a new administration to direct
the county during the next four years.
I The lull following the downfall of
the Democratic organization and the
Fusion party's triumph is regarded,
however, as merely the calm before
the storm.
Some time this week. possibly by
missioner John B. Diamond, defeated
Democratic candidateesis expected to
file protest in the Circuit Court
against the Darnestown District vote,
and request recount of the entire
county vote cast in the second COM
missioner district race, which he lost
to Charles E. King, Fusion nominee.
Party Leaders Ponder.
Democratic party leaders have been
pondering for several days the ques-
tion of what legal step, if any. should
be taken to determine whether there
were any irregularities in the Darnes-
town vote and whether a recount
might prove Diamond victor over
King.
Diamond and his associates have
said it is not only the fate Of the
Gaithersburg commissioners political
future that hangs in the balance, but
also the positions of several hundred
county employees who hold jobs under
the present administration.
They realize that If the Fusion party
assumes control of the county when
the new term begins on January 7,
department heads. clerks, police, en-
ployes of the liquor dispensary system
and members of the Liquor Control
Board stand in danger of dismissal
when the new administration begins
the distribution of patronage.
Should a recount return Diamond
to office it would continue the Demo-
cratic administration in control of the
county's administrative affairs for
another four-year period by giving it
the controlling vote on the County
Board and protect the positions held
by the present employees.
With so much at stake, it is felt
certain in court house circles that the
protest on the Darnestown vote and
the recount request will be made.
Supporters of the Fusion party, on
the other hand. feel that the Demo-
cratic commissioner candidates who
were defeated by the nominees of the
new political group we're defeated
fairly and Diamonds loss should be
gracefully accepted by Democratic
heads.
Commissioner Diamond lost to King
by SO votes, IS of which King OBJ
tained in the K to 2 section of Darnes-
town district, where Diamond claims

COULD PUT JOBS UNDER
PUBLIC WORKS BOARD
Governor.Elect's Budget Powers
Hit as Safeguard in Face
of Threat.
BY GEORGE PORTER,
STAFF Correspondent Of The Star.

ANNAPOLIS. November l0-Hoping
to retain as much patronage as pos
sible, Maryland's Democratic legisla-
tors may try to outmaneuver the
States new Republican Governor
when the general assembly meets In
January.
Using the same tactics employed by
the Democrats when the last Repub-
lican Governor. Phillips Lee Colds
borough, was elected, members of the
Legislature are expected to try to
transfer many appointments which
now lie in the Governors hands to the
Board of Public Works.
AS the Legislature convenes the first
Wednesday in January and the Gov
ernor is not inaugurated until the
second Wednesday, delegates and
Senators will have one week in which
to rush through emergency legisla ton
with Gov Ritchie still in Office to
sign it.
Democrats Rule Board.
The Board of Public Works consists
of the Governor, the State controller
and the State treasurer. The latter
two will be Democrats, who could con-
troll all appointments in spite of a
Republican Governor.
Such appointments as members OF
the Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission and of the Maryland
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission might be placed under
the board, it is pointed out. This
would permit the Democrats to retain
control of the commissions when the
present commissioners terms expire
BY getting down to work during the
first week of the session. instead OF
coasting along as is customary for
several weeks, the Legislature could
make many changes in the laws
regulating appointments. To place the
appointive power in the Board OF
Public Works would be to revert to q
system that existed many years prior
to the Ritchie regime.
Can't Take Over Budget.
The Legislature will not be able
however, to deprive Gov.-elect Harry
w. Nice Of the privilege of making up
the budget for the next two fiscal years
That power is conferred upon him by
the State constitution.
1t gives Nice a tremendous CLUB
to WELD over the heads of Democratic
legislators, and if he uses it discretely
he may be able to halt some of the
efforts to change laws regulating ap-
pointments.
