BALLOT FRAUD.
TOLD At QUIZ
ON RECOUNT

ROCKVILLE, Md, Feb. 27.-Out
Of q mass of charges and re-
examinations relating to Mont
gomery county election practices
today came a clean-cut statement
from two election officials that in
the Sixth district last fall Is more
votes were recorded than there
were voters on the registration list.
This testimony was given by
Charles Boyer and Mrs. Joseph E.
Beal, both of Jamestown, who
told Judge De LaShmuttt and his
associates, sitting as an election
board to consider petitions from
defeated candidates for the House
Of Delegates for recount, that
they discovered the discrepancy
the evening of election day.
Reported to Clerk
They said they reported it to
F. Byrne Austin, clerk to the
board of election supervisors for
Montgomery county, who said the
returns could not be corrected.
Both witnesses said they had
remained late, after other men,
bers of the local board had gone
home, and had checked the poll
book, tally sheets, ballots and
ballot coupons against the regis
tration list, with the result indi-
Gated. Mr.. Boyer was the Fusion
party representative on the board,
and Mrs. Beall the Democratic.
Their testimony preceded the
appearance of Mr.. Austin who
had been scheduled to resume
his testimony this morning.
1t was while Mr.. Austin was
on the stand late yesterday that
the first of several so-called
"bombshellS" were exploded by DR..
Lewellyn Jordan, of Takoma
Park, who, with John Imirie, Of
Bethesda, is seeking to unseat the
successful Fusion candidates for
the house of delegates, John A.
Cantrell, of Chevy Chase, and
Walter M. Magruder. of Gathers
burg.
Causes Surprise
The surprise came in the form
Of an attempt on the part Of DR..
Jordan to introduce in evidence
the contents of a mysterious card
board box.
These contents, DR.. Jordan
claimed, were spoiled, not voted
defective ballots which should
properly have been placed in the
ballot boxes with the counted bal
lots and sealed, or else delivered
to the custody Of the clerk to the
Circuit Court.
Judge DeLaShmutt held that
the box and its contents must be
delivered to the clerk of the Cir,
cult Court until the court could
rule on its admissibility but, upon
agreement Of counsel, it was al.
lowed to remain in Mr.. Austin's
custody over night. A ruling on
the question was expected today.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
WHAT MAKES A GOOD TOWN

The best job that Chamber of Commerce. mere
mr. anywhere will do in the future will be that OF
looking we'll to its own household, of concerning
itself with purely domestic problems, with focusing
its energies upon conditions that locally abound
with a view to making life more attractive, busi-
ness better, people happier and the atmosphere
cleaner and more salutary.
The factory grabbing day is behind u.s. me CIVIC
genius of motorcading and otherwise whooplnE-
her-up has lost its edge.
Communities are going to grow because OF ener-
ges expended within rather than efforts directed to
affairs without.
To that end it becomes Chamber of Commerce
to turn the light inward and ascertain from within
its own envrons what duties incumbent upon
such an organization touching upon the needs Of
its own people.
And once that is intelligently done, it will be
found that community's business and economic
expansion depends, more than anything else, upon
its social and cultural developments and opportunl-
ties.
Good schools, contented citizenship people
living in satisfactory adjustment one with another,
the absence of classsms and ciques artificially
erected-such as these are the assets a town must
have to take wings for tomorrow.-The Charlotte
Observer.
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1935-03-08
BACK HOME AND BROKE"

An interesting sidelight on operations of the
IVA is revealed in newspaper correspondent
report that hundreds of the hill jewellers who sold
their farms to the authority for cash on
relief rolls
Their farms were needed as part of reservoirs
for storage of water back of IVA dams and they
were bought and paid for so that the farmers
might move out and locate in new homes. But
many of them promptly spent their money. Some
bought cars and went touring. Now they are broke
and have no homes either. One section reports
more than 200 such families "back home" but on
relief.
Many of them no doubt reason that since the
government got them into such fix it is up to
the government to get them out of it the best way
it can. That's che of the ways human nature fig
ures things out-Greenve News

PAYING THE PRICE

President Roosevelt is paying the customary
price of his leadership and he will have increas-
ingly more of it to pay his years of service
stretch out
A man of action and of achievement, he invites
the barbed arrows of scorn and mockery.
The envious few are always standing in the dark
to ambuscade the man who get things done.
If you would escape such shafts, be nobody
Make your work mediocre and hide yourself among
the unknown masses. Jealousy's forked tongue
will then never reach you. And you ought to be
able to live comfortably happy life
But do something that has not been done, and
spiteful little voices will beat like babel upon
you.
If Mr.. Roosevelt knows human nature or it's his
tory, he will be complacent while the derision is
pouring upon him.-Julian S. Miller in Charlotte
Observer.

FALsEHooDS IN THE COURTS

Is it possible that the devil has so organized his
mps to that state Of sinful sorddness that one may
90 out and commit crime and others come along
and prove them clear by falsehood? Probably not
vet that is the case too often No offense is more
detestable than falsehood perjury.
Of course, the man who steals your purse OF
robs you in any way is very undesirable citizen
yet it is doubtful if his crime is as black as the
man who deliberately falsfes to defeat the ends
of justice.
What we need in our courts is system of fer
retng out the falsehoods in court procedure in oul
country The witness who deliberately and know,

the defense needs to take the place of the defend
ant under indictmen;.

THEY DISHONOR THEMSELVES
By WICKES WAMBOLDT

to enact laws which deprived the
city of Ashcville Of its protection
against political gangsters. Thru
brazen legislative deviltry, the
city charter which had been over
whelmingly adopted at the polls
by the people was emasculated to
an extent that was unbelievable.
The police and fire departments
were taken from under city adj
ministration and placed in control
of a political dictatorship COM
posed of three men with absolute
authority, responsible to no one.
This board, headed by one of the
most notorious Of the machine
politicians, was empowered to
make all appointments and fix all
salaries in the police and fire de-
partments.
Another bill to throw entire
control of the municipality into
the hands of the partisan politi-
cal machine, changed the city
elections from non-partisan to
partisan. 1t removed every re-
striction against city employees
being used in political campaigns
and being compelled to contribute
to slush funds. 1t repealed the eX-
cellent, crook-proof city election
laws and substituted an election
system that lent itself to fraud.
The foregoing constituencies,
overriding Of the will of the peo-
pie of the city Of fifty thousand
inhabitants by three ruthless, i'm
pudent men, was bad enough. But
what the state legislature of
North Carolina did was still
worse. 1t unanimously supported
the passage of the foregoing bills
in spite of the pleadings and pro-
tests of thousands of Ashevillians.
Please observe this astonishing
statement made by certain state
legislators to delegation of
Ashevillians who went two hun
dred and seventy miles to the
state capital to seek relief from
such a high handed legislative
outrage:
1--WE know those laws are rot
ten. We have seen, too, that the
persons who have come here to
argue for the passage of those
laws have been political job hold

ers and political henchmen. We
observe that your own delegation
is composed of earnest, unseifish,
high tyne. patriotic citizens, here
solely because of interest in the
welfare of your city. We are aw-
fully, awfully sorry for you, but
we can do nothing for you. 1t IS
the inflexible custom in the state
legislature to act favorably on all
nnrelv local bills when introduced
bv representatives from the local.
ties affected. Should we oppose
that legislation, however much we
abhor it, we should lose caste in
the legislature and we should find
it impossible to get favorable ac-
ton on any bills that We might
introduce for our own localities. "
There, my friends, is an evil
condition., in state legislature,
which is admittedly evil, and
which is upon the face OF it a dis
grace, not only to the state of
North Carolina and tn. Demo-
cratic party, but to the union OF
states to which North Calolina be-
longs. Sad to say, the legislature
of North Carolina is not the only
culprit in the nation.
