Democrats Oppose
Charter Government
Plan in Montgomery
County Citizens Urged
Not to Sign Petitions
For Referendum ~
BY Staff Correspondent of The star.

BY Staff Correspondent of The Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md, July 22.-The
Montgomery County Congress OF
United Democratic Organizations
opposes referendum on the ques-
tion of adopting charter form OF
county government and has author
lied distribution of 10000 pamphlets
setting forth its position.
The action was taken last night
at a special meeting to discuss the
charter issue in the Richard Mont
gomery High School.
The charter form of government
has been recommended by report
OF the Brookings Institution and is
being sponsored by County Char
ter Committee, headed by Allen H.
Gardner of Silver Spring.
Voters Asked to Register.
Mr.. Gardner today issued an ap-
peal for all qualified residents to
register for voting in the November
election, which he said would be
"the most important to Montgomery
County in recent years" because of
the proposed referendum his group
is sponsoring.
He said supplemental boards of
registry will sit today through FRI
day at the County Service Building
in Bethesda; August and in the
Chevy Chase firehouse; August 5,
one at the Westbrook School and
one at the Chevy Chase firehouse.
Called G. o. p. Move.
Action by the congress was taken
on motion of James B. Fitzgerald
of Chevy Chase, who urged resi-
dents not to sign petitions for
placing the referendum before the
voters this fall. A petition of 10000
signatures is required to place the
question on the ballot.
Joseph A. Cantrel of Chevy Chase,
counsel to the Board of County
Commissioners, declared the pro-
posed charter government does not
offer any advantages not already
obtainable under the present form.
Efforts to foster the charter were
regarded by some of the speakers
as Republican effort to change the
Democratic majority administration
of local government.
Among the speakers last night
were Roger J. Whiteford of Chevy
Chase, Miss Vivian Simpson, j.
Bond Smith and Ben G. Wilkinson,
all of Takoma Park.

today in Abbey Mausoleum, Airing
ton, Va, after funeral services at the
Washington Cathedral attended by
three of his former colleagues, men,
bers of Congress, the diplomatic
corps and the bar.
Departing from his usual practice
of adding nothing personal to the
"solemnity of the written word" OF
the funeral service, the Right Rev.
James E. Freeman, Bishop of Wash
ington, who conducted the service,
said his high, regard for the former
justice forced him to include an ex-
preston Of his personal grief.
Through years Of acquaintance
with Justice Sutherland, the bishop
said, he could testify to the moral
and spiritual integrity that per-
vaded his career in Congress, on
the bench and in his private life.
Man of Convictions.
HE was a man of definite con-
victions and of soul unafraid, who
spoke out of a consciousness sensi-
tive both to human needs and to
divine thought" the bishop said.
Immediately preceding the serv-
ices Justices Black and Roberts and
former Justice McReynolds entered
Bethlehem Chapel in company with
D. Lawrence Groner, Chief Justice
of the United States District Court

the American Bar Association head
ed by William P. McCracken. Other

committee were Henry I. Quinn,

ton, George Maurice Morris and
Wilbur Gray
King Attends Services.
Also attending the services were

The justice was appointed to the
Supreme Court by President Harding
in 1922 and served until his retire
ment in 1888. He died in his sleep
Saturday at Stockbridge, Mass
where he had been spending the
summer with Mrs. Sutherland.
Mrs. Sutherland was accompanied

Walter A. Bloedorn, and her son-in-
law, DR.. Bloedorn, with whom she
will live for a time at 4617 HaW-

u YOUNG English girl writess
A Il wish l knew which ways
& q are really best! Should
try to learn American ways? Or
should l keep to those taught at
home? Table manners trouble me
most. With US the knife is for the
right hand and the fork for the
left. We are taught to use the two
together. the knife to cut and
assist in arranging the food upon
the fork, and the fork in the left
hand to convey morsels to the
mouth.
"Over here I notice many who
eat with the right hand exclusively,
the knife being used only when
meat, or whatever. is too tough to
saw it apart with the side of the
fork; then the knife is laid down
and the fork changes hands. Some
times it changes with every mouth
full!
my worst trouble is when l
have no salad knife. spatter salad
dressing on the table. And l
haven't seen a real fish knife since
left England. 1t is funny to have
napkins at all meals. but l like that
custom you have very much"
Since a number Of other for
eisn visitors haze made these
same comments, think it
timely to CONTRACT q Jeso Of the
differences betsCeen European
spoys and ours -esPecialty
since 1t seems to me th0t best
manners are not theirs or ours,
but often in betsceen.
For example, the American omis-
sion of fish and salad knives is
counterbalanced by the English
omission of breakfast and lunch
napkins! Both are in my opinion
very much needed.

IT IS best manners to follow
Europe 80 far as to cut off piece

pattern threatens good manners.
is when you begin piling things on
top the meat. For example. to hold
the fork up off the plate, take
almost a blade-full of mashed po-
tato with the knife and load it on
the fork almost to the top of the
tines, is very bad table manners
in any country!

WHO'S RIGHT?

lean" way of putting down the
knife and switching the fork with
every mouthful - a suffering ma
neuver that is certainly the height
of awkwardness.
Another American absurdity is
the idea that the use of bread as
pusher is incorrect. The proper use
of a pusher depends upon the what
and when. A squashy. soft piece of
bread used throughout the course?
No! But a bit of crust or cracker.
for the last few morsels on the plate
which otherwise scatter at the ap-
proach of the fork, is entirely right.
So also is the European custom
of picking up the knife in the left
hand and using the blade momen-
tarily as a barrier. against which
the fork secures escaping frag-
ments. This, however. has to be
deftly done.
bad Manners
10 HOLD a piece of bread in the
fingers and wipe up all the gravy or
the sauce is bad manners. But a
practice dear to all European epi-
cures is to drop a small piece of
bread into a particularly delicious
sauce and eat it with the fork.
Returning to the English girls
remark about absent fish as well as
salad knives: l think she must
have meant special fish knives with
sharp points and fine saw-edged
backs. They are rarely seen in
America, because the way we pre-
fer to prepare our fish dishes has
long made this type of knife use
less. Moreover the ordinary small
breakfast knife serves the purpose.
A knife for salad. as l have written
before, is correct. Like the knife
for fish it is put on when. it is
needed, and it is very much needed
for all leafy salads - heart of let
tuce, or watercress for example.
The reason a salad knife is
thought tabu by many people is
that before the invention of stain
less steel. ordinary steel turned
black at the touch of vinegar.
1t is perhaps worth reminding
hostesses not to serve hot toasted
and buttered English mullins or
crumpets with afternoon tea Tor
Coffee unless they supply their
guests with fruit Tor other smalD
knives and forks. Struggling to eat
either of these breads with the
fingers results all too easily in but
tered cheek, chin and fingers.
BY the way, l have a retraction
to make. When l wrote recently
that eating salad with a spoon was
impossible, had entirely for
gotten that alligator Tor avocado)
pear cut in half with its peel left on
and filled with French dressing, can
not be eaten otherwise.

of typhus fever which is reported
raging on the eastern front among
the German Army. The disease can
be transmitted by mice. fleas and
lice. he said
DR.. Howard also warned that tet-
anus is highly prevalent during war
time, claiming the germs often are
present in ordinary street dirt. Re-
turning to the discussion of the more
common diseases the speaker said
that persons with septic sore throats
should be isolated as strictly as
