.COUNTY'S MERIT
SYSTEM BATTLE.
GOES TO COURT
Suit Is Ordered Filed to
,-r BaIk Measure

ROCKVILLE, Md, Aug. Is.
Constitutionality of Montgomery
County's recently enacted merit
system law, which has been the
center of a controversy for more
than two months, will be decided
in the courts, as the result of &C
ton taken by the Board of County
Commissioners here late yesterday.
In a surprise move, the five-man
board by a vote of three to two,
adopted a motion by Democratic
Commissioner Robert D. Hagner,
to instruct F. Bernard Welsh, at
torney to the board, to file suit
for an injunction to restrain Col,
H. c. Jones, State employment
commissioner, from invoking the
act which places all county en-
ployes, with the exception of police
and teachers, under the merit sys-
TEN
REGISTERS PROTEST
Attorney Welsh, astounded by
the commissioners action, pro-
tested that he was firm believer
in the merit system and has been
under the impression that if it
was ever tested in court he would
defend the State employment
commission. He suggested that
either State Senator Stedman
Prescott or William Prettyman,
both opposed to the measure, be
employed by the county to file the
suit.
Excitement also reign e d
throughout the county offices
where more than 125 Fusionist
employees, placed into office
shortly after the FusiorfiSts gained
control of county affairs in 1884,
felt that they were practically
frozen into office through the mis-
taken passage of the merit sys-
tenn measure of the General AS
sembly last March.
SURPRISE MOVE
A look Of surprise passed over
the faces of the two Fusion Re.
publican members of the board
when the motion Of Commissioner
Hagner was quickly seconded by
Democratic Fusion Commissions r
Charles E. King. The lone Demo
cratic member of the board, Rich
ard s. Lansdale, then voted with
Hagner and King. Republican
Fusionlsts Paul M. Coughlan and
Frank H. Karn opposed the mo-
ton. $780,.
Coughlan said he was of the
opinion that if the suit is filed be-
fore the examinations are held to
prepare a list of eligibleS for the
positions, pay checks will be held
up after November /, effective
date of the act, unless a court
ruling is obtained by them.
