COUGHLAN WILL
WAR FOR COUNTY
MERIT SYSTEM
Would Stop Politicians
EmpIoye ShakedOWn

SILVER SPRING, Md, Aug. 8.
Spurred by persistent accusations
that county employees were being
shaken down" by political candi-
dates. Commissioner Paul M.
Coughlan, who represents this area
on the Montgomery County Board
of Commissioners, today declared
he would renew his efforts to in
stall the merit system in local
government.
Commissioner Coughlan said he
would ask members of the commits
sion at tomorrow's meeting to in
struct their attorney to assist the
Attorney General of the State in
his efforts to dissolve restraining
order now pending which is hold
ing up installation of such a SyS-
TEN.
MUTUAL INTEREST
A letter written to county en-
ployes by certain Montgomery
officials instructing them to meet
with their superior to discuss mat
ters of mutual interest" has been
widely construed to mean that the
employees are to be shaken
down"
Bitterly condemning the spoils
system, Mr.. Coughlan said:
In view of the persistent COM
plants that have been brought
to my attention regarding the
tactics of certain political can
didateS in their efforts to make
county employees con rlbute
financially to their campaigns,
1 will tomorrow renew my et-
forts to have the merit system
put into effect in Montgomery
county.
SUCCESSFUL SYSTEM
"More than a year ago I in
troduced a resolution asking
that such a system, which has
already proven highly success
full among county police and
many State employees, be adopted
to blanket the entire county
personnel, subject to competitive
examination.
Although I have not seen a
copy of the letter written to the
employees, it has been brought
to my attention from reliable
sources that several candidates
are intimidating county en-
ployes with threats of losing
their jobs unless they make not
only financial contributions, but
also become active in campaign
ing for certain officials.
RESTRAINING ORDER
"When the merit system reso-
luton was first introduced, Col.
Harry C. Jones, State employ
ment commissioner, was ready
and willing to take immediate
steps toward this end. A tenn
porary restraining order, how
ever, was issued by the court on
complaint of those favoring the
spoils system. This Injunction
is now pending in court and will
have to be removed before
Colonel Jones can proceed to
give employees the competitive
examinations.
Cost of the examination, it
has been estimated, is approx
mately $2,100. This sum surely
represents a small item when
compared with the costs paid by
the taxpayers as a result of the
spoils system. No employe can
properly do his work while
under the strain of fearing he
will lose his job unless he goes
to bat for certain candidates.
Vast personnel changes made
by changing administrations, as
is done under the Spoils SyS-
tenn, is the most outrageous and
costly form of government that
can be fostered upon the tax
payers"

"Yo siempre he estado a IA

FARMERS MUST SIGN TO
GET CONSERVATION CHECK
Meetings Now Being Held In The
CG=nty; 400 Applied For Money

Meetings of farmers are being held
at different points in the county to re-
ceive their 1888 applications for pay
ment under the Soil Conservation pro-
gram. Fifty-fve applications for pay
ment were made at Swanton this week
and about 400 more will be received at
Friendsville Meetings are in charge
of County Agent John H. Carter.
Each farmer who applied for pay
ment this spring has been notified by
letter when meetings are being held,
and Mr.. Carter pointed out that it was
important that applicants come and
sign when notified, because forty per
cent of those applying in the spring
must sign up before the Federal Gov
eminent will issue any checks in pay
ment of claims.
According to the last census there
are 1899 farmers in this county and
if all had made application it would
have been possible to receive $4,000
to be distributed among that number.
Mr.. Carter said that about 1,400 had
signed up this year and that between
$4,000 and $4,000 will be paid by tue
Government to farmers in this county.

41,OO0 Acres Are Added To
States Forest Land

Maryland's $4,000 acres of state
forests will be augmented soon by adj
dition of approximately $1,000 acres
of submarginal land turned back to
the State by the resettlement admin
istration.
State Forester F. w. Besley said
the negotiations would give Maryland
a 99-year lease on $4,000 acres in Gar
rett county and about 1000 in Wor-
cester county, originally purchased
by the government as part of the pro-
gram to take submarginal land out of
cultivation.
Under terms of the lease, the State
Forestry Department must administer
the property for forestry purposes,
wild life conservation, and recreation.
Approximately Is percent OF the IN
come from the acreage will be paid to
Garrett and Worcester countise in lieu
of taxes.
Besley said the state added 5000
acres of forest land to its holdings
during 1888, through acquisitions by
the University of Maryland Board OF
Regents. These holdings do not in
clude 5000 acres of park land.

NEW MARRIAGE LAW NOW
IN EFFECT IN MARYLAND
Most Applicants Who Don't
Know of Regulation go Ahead
Anyway

Applying the brakes to marriages
by the new 48-hour law has failed to
deter many couples seeking licenses to
wed at Oakland. Three made applica-
ton on last Friday and although two
couples didn't know of the law they
decided to accept the waiting period
necessary before the actual license can
be issued.
The law actually went into effect
here at eight o'clock last Thursday
morning, according to Clerk A. G. Ross
who said he was following instructions
of the Attorney General. The law went
into effect in other places in Maryland
at midnight last Thursday.
Six couples applied for permits last
Thursday and although they didn't
know of the requirements of the lsw,
they went ahead. Couples from Penn
sylvania and West Virginia were the
applicants. An Ohio couple on Satur-
day decided they would not wait forty
eight hours and left to obtain per-
nit elsewhere. They were planning a
honeymoon to the West Coast immedi-
ately.
Five couples made application on
Monday and one made application on
Tuesday.
The new marriage law here is ex-
pected to cut the number of licenses
issued to at least one-half. There have
been from thirty to fifty each week
for the past two years, with seventy
five in a weeks period occasionally.
The going into effect of the law did
did not cause such stir here as II
did in Elkton and other Gretna Greens
of the State. Ministers here DID not
depend on marriage fees for a hveli-
hood and Clerk Ross kept only regu-
lar office hours, opening at 8 o'clock
and closing at 5 o'clock. No licenses
were issued to applicants on Sunday.
