Time Extended
For Inspection
OF Automobiles
New Deadline Now Is Set
For January 4th

A fifteen-day extension Of the time
limit for official inspection of auto
mobiles was announced by the Motor
Vehicles Commissioners Office today.
The extension brings the dead-line,
originally set for midnight December
20, to midnight, January 4. After that
date, police will be instructed to give
summonses to owners of vehicles not
bearing the inspection stamp, order
ing them to show cause why their
machines have not been inspected.
Issuance of summonses marks a
new departure in enforcement of the
inspection law, the Commissioners
Office pointed out.
The deadline was extended when a
check-up by the Commissioners staff
showed that $4,000 Maryland motor
lists have not had their automobiles
inspected. Garages and service sta
tons, authorized to make official in
spections, reported that they were
being swamped with motorists seek
ing last-minute inspections.

HI OUR

Is drawing near and you must
decide what to give to those you
want to remember this Christmas
and make it indeed a merry one
for all of them. Certainly - with
all the gift things now in the local
stores your problem should be
easy. Prices should not worry you
either, because each and every
merchant has holiday goods priced
in line with that Of stores in other
localities and have stocked large
varieties in order to give any purse
a chance, no matter how much or
little you care to give.
The local merchants and bust
ness men. through their advertise
ments in THE SENTINEL, extend
to you a hearty invitation to shop
in Rockville. Remember, a dollar
spent at home is a dollar that
works in many ways for your good
as well as the other fellows. Make
Rockville and Montgomery County
your shopping center, not just al
Christmas time but throughout the
entire year.

FiUe County Commissioners
Assume Duties; Hampton
Is Elected NeW President
Oxley Named Police Commissioner And Farmer
Will Supervise County Home-Lansdale Slated To
Be Clerk, Simpson RumOred Counsel

Montgomery County's new Com
missioners assumed office Tuesday
quietly and inauspiciously as the
occupied themselves with routine
duties and gradually eased them
selves into the governmental seats
they will retain for four years.
simultaneously, it marked the GUST
ing of the Fusion party-surprise
victors in 1884 when the old-line
Democrats proved too weak to guard
their battle-scarred entertainments
against a militant combination of
disgruntled leaders within their own
ranks and office-hungry Republicans.
After being sworn in by Clayton
K. Watkins, clerk of the Circuit
Court, the new Montgomery County
Board of Commissioners Monday in
a short executive session elected
Thomas Earle Hampton, Bethesda
real estate man and civic leader,
president for the next four years.
Commissioner John E. Oxley was
named police commissioner and Com
missioner Robert w. Farmer was
chosen supervisor Of the County
Home. The votes were unanimous
and the board was in session less
than Is minutes, adjourning until
the regular meeting Tuesday.
Before crowd of Courthouse en-
ployees and political leaders and
friends, MIR. Watkins administered
the oath to the commissioners one
by one. Robert Peter, State Sena-
tor-elect, presented each one of the
members of the new board basket
of flowers on behalf of the Court
house employees, and Walter Daw-
son, a member of the Republican
State Central Committee, presented
a second basket of flowers to the
only Republican member of the
Board, Walter johnson, former
Washington baseball pitcher.
Richard H. Lansdale is slated to
be the new clerk to the commits
sioners. succeeding Ira C. Whitacre,
unsuccessful candidate for County
Treasurer. 1t is very widely
rumored that Miss Vivian Simpson
and her brother, Joe, will be named
counsel to the new board. Other
important appointments under the
commissioners will likely be made
public at any moment.

Nice To Quit
State Mansion
House In Style
O'ConOr To Place Official
Car AS Disposal OF Retir-
ing Executive

No walking alone out of the base
ment door for Governor Nice when
Herbert R. O'Conor succeeds him as
Maryland's executive. Such has been
the fate of many another former Gov
ernor, but Mr.. O'Conor is going to
change that custom.
The official Governors automobile
which Governor Nice has been using
for the last four years, will be placed
at his disposal by the incoming Gov
ernor to be used for a more dignifed
retreat from Annapolis.
Tentative plans for this upsetting
of precedent were revealed this week
by Mr.. 0Conor. After he walks from
the Government House to the State
House for the Inauguration ceremon-
les with the outgoing Governor, Mr..
O'Conor will follow the usual routine
before being sworn in.
Then, while bands play and cheers
go up for Governor O'Conor, former
Governor Nice viii be invited to ride
in the car which moment before was
his, but no longer, and go as far as
he pleases with police escort.
The car is expected to be returned
to the Government House.

The first benefit check was sent out
by the Maryland Unemployment Com
pensation Board on January rs last.
Up to December II the total paid

Cured during January, February and
March. In that period the high mark
of $4,000 benefit checks in single
day was reached. Since then there
has been a recession more or less
steady. In the week ended December
IL the number of benefit checks
mailed was 1892. For several weeks
this has been about the figure.
Claims are now becoming more or
less stabilized in number. The total
new claims in the week ending De-
ccmber 10 was 1926. Only 144 claims
came from the Eastern Shore offices.
The Baltimore City territory con-
tinues to send the great majority of
the new claims with the principal
Western Maryland cities of Cumber-
land, Hagerstown and Frederick
trailing along in irregular volume.
The recession in Cumberland has re-
Gently been the greatest in proper

The makeup of the two boys was
striking in its resemblance to the
characters which they portrayed. Rus
sell Davis, with his black boots,
leather strap and kahaki suit, black
hair combed the Hitler style and the
Charlie Chaplin mustache and the
German accent exclusively portrayed
Hitler.
Dressed in the clothes of the Presi-
dent, striped trousers, long tail coat,
wing tipped collar, white hair, lined
face and nose glasses, Gordon Rosen-
berger well portrayed the figure and
voice of President Roosevelt. He en-
tered on the stage leaning on the arm
of an aide, flashed the typical Roose-
welt smile. Then, as only a Roosevelt
can, he took deep breath, opened
his mouth and out floated his beau
tiful and individual "my friends.
Different phases Of life in the two
countries were enacted by other stu
dents of the class. AS the speeches
progressed the phases of education,
religion, home life, national defense
and labor were presented to better
interpret these points in the speeches.
This program was under the direc-
ton Of Mrs. Blew and Mrs. Shop

staged at Richard Montgomery High
