DO YOU THINK THAT ALL GREENBETERs SHOULD HAVE THE
RIGHT TO VOTE IN MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS REGARDLESS OF
THEFT LEGAL RESIDENCE?
POLLY SWAN, l4-J Parkway Road
In order to have effective town government all
citizens must take part in elections. It seems UNI
necessary and very unw to to any res
ident Of Greenbelt from voting for Town Council.
hrs. E. j. MAJOR, 2-H Eastway
Tt looks like a ridiculous situati to me where
10 percent Of the people in Greenbe1t who are Mary
land resid emit and titute minority vote should
be allowed to emit the interests the other
80 per cent who can't to in town elections.
WENDER HOLM, Joe Parkway Road
believe that Greebe cit is sti i'll in the Begin
ing stages land that people should together more
than they Do now. The New Deal has done the work.
ing man a great deal of good in giving him better
living conditions and should all have the right
to help elect government here which will always
be sympathetic toward Greenb further progress.
certainly the greater the of people allowed
vote the more chance there is of eff emily run
town government.
LEON NAIKIN, l5-c Ridge Road
1t is a known foot thet most Of the residents of
Greenbelt government employees or potential ones
and none of these want to lose their legal voting
residence. However. this would create situation
here where very mall clique Id be able to con-
troll the destinies of Greenbe1t.
MRS. C. S. LEWIS l3-M RIDGE ROAD
am in favor Of allowing all Greabe1t citi zens
to vote here for the town council. long as most
OF us int end staying here permanent ly should have
a voice in the way the town is going to be run in
the future.
c. OfLEAIY, 14-A Crescent Road
About 80 percent Of the population in Greenbe1t
wi never declare their Intentions to become voters
OF Nary land. don't believe that anyone should be
for ced to become resident Of Maryland Just for the
privilege Of voting in Greenbe 1t E1eoti ons Prince
Georges County isn't interested in Grenbelt in
spite of the benefits they have derived from the
town in the way Of automobile and taxes. and

conveyed back to the original
holders of the land the rights of
way when no longer used for
railroad transportation.
The Perky interests, said to be
the largest holders of land on
the Florida Keys, secured the
ownership of the property
through which the railroad was
operated and which was included
in the revertible deed.
The transfer of the land to
the county or the State Road De-
partment was not consented to
by Perky without some none
tary consideration, and no agree
ment was arrived at until the
county agreed to Murphyize the
taxes of the owner, which was
eliminated at the meeting last
night.
All differences as to the scope
of the right of way, which had
caused some halt in the proceed
ings, were clarified by the deed
which conveyed to the State Road
Department, full title to the re-
quired property.
