meat loaf that there should be no
danger Of monotony even though you
serve meat in this way frequently.
You can even vary its appearance by
sometimes serving 1t in q ring mold,
with mashed potatoes or other vege-
tables in the center Of the ring. Or
you can bake it in muffin tins and
serve individual meat loaves. Your
family will surely like that.
The combination Of ground beef
and pork is a favorite for meat loaves.
Other ingredients may be added to
this standard recipe for a variety of
flavors
~ Ground liver may be combined
with other meat and baked in baf
This is good way to serve this food,
so valuable for its iron content, in
case there are some members of your
family who do not like the flavor Of
liver alone
A lamb meat loaf is delicious and
is served less often than it deserves.
I'm going to give you the recipe for q
lamb loaf today.

administered by a county agency,
although a State agency perform
ing similar function was at hand.
In connection with consolidation
and attorneys, the county now pays
counsel for six different depart
ments, namely. the States attorney,
counsel to the Board of County
Commissioners, the Board of Liquor
Control, the county treasurer, the
County Board of Education and the
Board of Supervisors Of Elections.
Salaries range from $500 to $1,000
year.
While many of the county's trou-
bles might be traced to politics or
lack of planning, the majority of
them are due to the widely different
needs Of the rural and suburban
districts. For example, in the area
adjoining Washington, refuse and
garbage disposal is a.pressing prob
lem; in the upper part Of the county
it does not exist. To a greater or
less degree the same is true of the
water supply, sanitary facilities and
street cleaning, maintenance and
lighting. The homogeneous char
acter of the county, for which the
traditional county government was
admirably adapted, has been de-
stroyed by the influx of new resi-
dents from the District of Columbia
The county consists today Of a rural
area with problems common to an
agricultural community, and a met
ropolitan section, including two
thirds of the county's population in
one-third of its geographical limits,
with problems more akin to those
Of q large city.
Among other groups, the Mont
gomery County Civic Federation has
seen the need for modernizing the
county's administrative organiza-
ton. Some of the federation lead
ers favored changing to q county
manager form Of government, prob
ably patterned after that adopted
several years ago In Arlington
County, Va. Others believed q
county manager system would
not be suitable to Montgomery
County, which is much larger in
area and contains both rural and
suburban districts, and suggested the
incorporation Of the lower suburban
section to permit uniform taxation
for its more varied civic needs. This

brief study convinced proponents of
both methods that the question was

au-trades, successful politician and
business man and journalist.
Kendall was in Washington after
fruitful years in Andy Jackson S
kitchen cabinet" and with Martin
Van Buren as Postmaster General
as well. He was wealthy following
his successful management of the
Morse telegraph interests.
At this time. in the late SOS, a
fellow arrived in Washington with
a group of deaf children for whom
he said he was soliciting funds to
build school. After receiving some
donations, the man absconded with
the money, leaving the children here.

there is little likelihood that the
post of attorney to the county treas
urer will be abolished.
From time immemorial the county
has had a supervisor of county aid.
When the Board Of State Aid and
Charities created county welfare
boards in 1885 to administer old
age pensions and funds for de-
pendent children and the blind
efficiency would have seemed to
require consolidation of the two
offices, whose investigators were
covering the same ground and in
many cases visiting the same
homes. But the consolidation has
never been effected in Montgomery

including the State of Maryland and
Baltimore City.
During the early years of the
regime of the late Gov. Ritchie the
Chicago firm of Griffenhagen & As
sociates made survey of the Mary
land State government. Not all of
its recommendations were adopted,
but to it can be credited the States
present budgetary system and the
merit system which obtains in some
State departments today.
The survey in Baltimore was con-
Quoted by commission of civic
leaders and business men named by
Mayor Howard w. Jackson. Many
improvements in the city's govern
ment have been claimed for it. Only
last month Gov.-elect Herbert r.
O'Conor announced the personnel of
a State commission. which will be
headed by DR.. Isaiah Bowman, presi-
dent of Johns Hopkins University,
to aid him in proposed fiscal and
departmental reorganization.
Such survey as is now scheduled
for Montgomery County, the wealth.
lest and most populous in the
Washington suburban area, offers
even to the Impractical eye a fer
tile field for speculation. During
the past decade or two, some at
tempts have been made to bring
the government into line with the
divergent needs of the county. The
traditional sheriff and deputy meth
Cd of law enforcement was modified
by relieving the sheriff's Office of all
responsibility for criminal cases and
creating countrywide modern po-
lice department headed by a police
chief.
To relieve the sparsely populated
upper portion Of the county of
taxes for streets and sidewalks in
the thickly populated lower portion,
where new subdivisions are plated
almost daily, provisions for setting
up special taxing areas were en-
acted into law by the Legislature.
But these changes did not settle
matters finally or to the satisfac-
ton of all concerned. The upper
part of the county is still taxed at
the same rate for police protection
as the lower part, where most of
the protection Is centered. And
the special taxing areas grew in
number until there are now n diff.
ferent rates Of taxation in effect.

The agency chosen by the commits
sioners for the job is the Brook
ings Institution, which established
special bureau to study various
phases of Federal Government. but
which made survey of the State
government of North Carolina in
1925 at the request of Gov. Angus
Mclean, who became acquainted
with its work while he was Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury during the
Wilson administration. This insti-
tute for governmental research,
headed by DR.. Lewis Merriam. has
since made surveys of the State
governments of New Hampshire,
Alabama, Mississippi, Iowa and
Oklahoma. Only in conjunction
with those State studies has it ever
made a survey of a county govern
ment. It is interested in Mont
gomery County now chiefly because
its proximity to the National Cap
ital gives it special significance.
The survey, DR.. Merriam explained
to the Board of County Supervisors,
would embrace not only the county
government. but the Maryland Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission, and the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission, two
State bodies functioning in Prince
Georges as we'll as Montgomery
County and in close conjunction
with various agencies in Washing
ton. The portions Of the survey deal
ing with personnel and welfare
would probably be handled by DR..
Merriam himself, who lives in Ken
sington and was for many years a
member Of the Montgomery County
Welfare Board. Other phases would
be conducted by members Of the
Brookings Institution staff, many Of
whom also live in the county.
The fact that so many members
Of the institute staff reside in Mont
gomery County WAS the most impor-
tant factor In the institutes offer
to make the survey At all. It will
make study for q nominal cost Of
5000 which would cost between
$50, 900 and sc, 900 if the county had
to pay all LIVING expenses of the staff
members working on the project.
Under the agreement, they will be
permitted to do the work when their
services were not demanded at the
institute. Under that method the
survey will require about a year,
perhaps 18 months or even two
years. The only other condition the
institute has imposed is that the re-
suit must be made public whea
] completed.

Moreover, the expense Of collecting
them is still borne by the county
treasurers' Office.
Still other changes have been
brought about by political expedi-
ency. Until 1894, when the Fusion
lists gained. control of the Board
Of County Commissioners, the
counsel to the board received an
annual salary Of 5000. In that
year the Democrats, who controlled
the county delegation to the State
Legislature, secured passage of an
act reducing the salary Of the board
counsel, appointed by the Fusion
lists, to $500, and created the post
of attorney to the county treasurer,
not to be appointed by the county
board, at a salary Of $1,000 a year
The saving was ostensibly $1,000 a
year, but now that one faction

positively could not profit from it.

President Garfield compared the
founding of the college and these

regarded as foolish experiment"
with the national donations to COM

and the building of the beautiful

BY 1893 all Of the graduates of
the college were able to speak and
only six pupils had been excused
from articulation. The college had
been made co-educational six years
before this and a normal depart
ment to train hearing teachers for
the deaf was opened in 1891.
In 1888 grateful deaf students
had presented to the college a
statue of Thomas Hopkins Gallau-
Diet by the eminent sculptor Daniel
Chester French. In 1894, by petit
ton of the students, the college was
named for him.

The Montgomery County Court
house at Rockville, Md, like the
county itself, is composed of two
distinct parts. At one end of the
courthouse square is the old build
ing Of red brick characteristic of
similar structures erected through
out this section in the 70s and '80s.
Connecting with it, but as differ
ent in architectural style as day
from night, is larger and more i'm

ern in every detail. Nothing could
illustrate in more concrete form
perhaps, the rapid development of
the county from a predominantly
agricultural area of only a genera
ton ago to the semi-rural, semi
urban district it is today.
To many this strange architec-
tural combination of the old and
the new symbolizes at once a prob
lem and a need for change. The
physical outlines of the courthouse
have been radically changed to per-
/ init expansion of services to a rap
idly growing community, but the
form OF government which it houses
has not.
Montgomery County is not only
weather. and more populous than
1t was a generation ago. Because
Of its dual nature, with farming
and suburban areas existing side by
side, it is infinitely more complex.
To cope with this new situation, a
survey of the county's governmental
set-up has been voted by the Board
OF Commissioners, in order to deter
mine what changes are needed to
give the taxpayers more efficient
service for their money and to cut
expenses if possible. Both major
political parties, which would be
called upon to implement any
changes by legislative action, have
agreed to the principle.
The practice of having changes
in governmental form made by poll
ticians with an eye to political ex-
pediency is as old as government
itself. The more modern practice
Of having changes suggested by a
non-political, non-partisan agency
with an eye to improved efficiency
and the taxpayers pocketbook dates
back to the survey of New York
