Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1935-01-10

The most important points in tho
inaugural address Of Gov. Harry w.
Nice were his statement on the 81
tag fee for automobiles and his plea
for $7,200,O0O to match Federal re-
lief appropriations for Maryland.
Gov Nice said Il am firmly con-
WINGED that, through rigid economy
and the adoption of business methods
Tin the State Roads Commission a
sufficient saving can be effected to
permit you to relieve the automobiles
OF the burdensome license fees whicx
ne now pays and establish 81 tae
fee."
In speaking of relief, Gov. Nice
said; For this purpose alone YOU
must provide ways and means ~.
guarantee a fund Of not less than
S7,2OO,OO0 annually. When you shan
have done this, am assured by the
Federal Government that 1t will CO.
operate with us in carrying our re-
iief burden. This burden last year
totaled the enormous sum Of over
$lS,OOo,ooO. Unemployment relief e
no longer regarded as an emergency
requirement., as it has become an an
nually recurring charge which NAV
be present for several years. As such
1t is an item for which provision
should be made from current reve-
nues."
Commenting on the plea of Gov.
Nice for the sum Of $7,2OO,OOO for re-
lief, State Senator J. Allan Coad.
Democratic floor leader of the Senate.
served warning that the majority
members Of the Legislature plan to
force the Republican Governor to
make specific recommendations rela-
tive to the source by which the reve-
nue. shall be raised.
"The raising of such sum as ST.
100000 would have constituted ma
jcr problem in State financing even in
prosperous days. But under conditions
that today exist, it seems well nigh
impossible without begetting condi-
tons even worse than those which
now obtain
After the parade, came the recep-
tionin the old Senate chamber.
Dancing, cheering crowds fell into
line behind bands and troops Of the
Maryland National Guard to march
shouting past the north portion Of the
State House, where the new Governor
reviewed the parade.
Delegations from many points In
the State took part in the march.
There was group representing the
western counties striding aAng be-
meath gigantic banner. There was
another delegation riding in a huge
bus. There were innumerable Repub-
lican clubs, all with banners, buttons
and flags.
There was fire apparatus, whole
company from Silver Spring. Sirens
screamed. The troops Of the Guard
from the One Hundred and Tenth
Field Artillery, from the Fifth Regi-
ment, and the band Of the One Hun
bred and Fourth Medical Regiment
stepped smartly along, their OF
saluting as they passed the re-
noint.

AS WE SEE IT
By MoNrco

1T is INTERESTING to note that
219 clergymen and professors in
Maryland, out of list of 238 ques-
toned, are in favor or abolishing
compulsory military training in the
State colleges. Many of these men
favor military training but do not
believe in making it compulsory. Nor
does the writer. Nowadays, with
physical education advanced to the
stage where every student gets a
chance to obtain proper exercise, there
lis no necessity for compulsory train
ing. The only big advantage derived
from military schools, besides the ex-
|ercise, is self-discipline. This can be
gained on the football gridiron, the
baseball diamond and the basketball
floor. AS far as the tactics of war go,
they will be outmoded every few
years anyhow at the rate we are
travelling. More will be learned about
how to fight the next war in the
chemical laboratory than on the pa
rade grounds.

ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIvID-
UALS in Rockville are to be compli-
mentea upon the fact that they SUBJ
merge tNeir politics when thinking of
the good If the town. This has been
particularly noticeable during the past
two or three years. The Rotary Club
is sponsoring the swimming pool
which promises to become an actual
ity. The community needs but one
thing and that is MORE BUSINESS.
It is nice to consider your community
a residential section-but you need
enterprise to keep the towns finances
adequate. Today factories are being
built on railroads and paved highways
just outside of towns comparable in
size Of Rockville. A little agitation
might persuade some big business to
locate here in the near future, bring
ing with it substantial payroll.

WHAT A THRILL PEOPLE get
from attending court sessions when
a murder tale or spicy damage suit
'ls in progress. You can always judge
the nature of the proceedings by the
crowd which mills around the court
house door. When a particularly racy
bit of testimony is Forthcoming, see
them surge forward with hand cupped
to ear. Personally, I have always en-
joyed the study Of the expressions on
the faces Of the jurors. One can read
belief, doubt, disbelief and guess the
probable verdict efftimes without
knowing the merits Of the case,

REGARDLESS OF WHETHER or
not Herr Hauptmann actually kid
mapped and murdered the Lindberg
baby, the ransom money found in his
possession brands him guilty of par
ticipation in the affair. Hauptmann
appears altogether too calm and suave
to have been ignorant of the chara-
acter Of the funds he claims were
given him by someone other than DR..
Condor.
