somewhat smaller turnout at
the annual Montgomery County

been complete success.

Commissioners Act
To End 'ROwdyism'
Here In Rockville
Strict Enforcement Of
Anti-Loitering Ordinance
And Liquor Laws Asked
Of County Police

Rockville officials and civic org
anizations this week obtained the
active assistance Of the Board Of
County Commissioners in their
efforts to eliminate what they
term "rowdyism and other objec-
tionable conditions" in the town
on Saturday nights and holidays.
After hearing the appeal of a
delegation from the Rockville Ro-
tary Club on Tuesday, the COM
missioners directed the chief of
police to instruct members of the
county force to enforce strictly the
anti-loitering ordinance of the
town. The police also were order
ed to enforce strictly the laws for
bidding the sale of intoxicants to
persons under the influence of
liquor and to minors.
The delegation laid especial
emphasis upon the objections Of
local groups to the sale of liquor
in town when large numbers of
people are here to do their shop
ping. The possession Of intoxicat-
ing liquors, it was pointed out, led
the "rowdy element" to start a
number of disturbances which have
occurred in the past.
Acting upon this advice, the
commissioners also recommended
70 the County Liquor Control
Board that the Rockville liquor
dispensary be closed at 7 P. M. on
Saturdays and on holidays when
the Court House is closed.
Members of the delegation APP
pearing before the Board of Com
missioners included Mayor d. M.
Blandford, DR.. Dexter M. Billiard,
Thomas M. Anderson, F. Barnard
Welsh, Edgar Reed, DR.. William
A. Linthicum, Albert M. Bouic,

and Mrs. MINER Hostetler, with
about fifty members and guests
present. The meeting began in the
afternoon with swimming party

until supper time. Meanwhile,
Alice's mother and father and a
committee from the club acted as
hosts.

THE CASE OF HOWARD

UlE OA0E Vt INV kALsO
= County's excitement over
the possibility Of the presence
of enemy parachutists should
not be dismissed without proper
credit being given the ladies
who reported the affair so
promptly and efficiently. Any
resulting bungling or hasty and
panicky reports have no bear
ing on the report made from
the observation post. To per-
NIT any stigma Of over-anxiety
or experimentation to rest
upon them would
SuOtters be to tell them, in

Fine Job are spending their
time at the obser-
walton post merely to fill in
that part of the shift. Facts
in the entire episode provide
abundant evidence that these
ladies were not only on the job
but performed their duty with
intelligence and dispatch.
There are again indications
that officials are fearful of the
public knowing facts. There
IS an unfortunate policy fol-
lowed by some of our higher
Officials the purpose of which is
to deny actual facts to the pub
lie. This, / submit, is entirely
erroneous and will tear down
public morale rather than
build it up.
An alert and understanding
group Of citizens is far more
to be desired than group made
complacent through ignorance
which cannot be fairly charge
able to them. 1t is far more
desirable to have people aware
of danger and steel themselves
for any possible development
than to have them unaware
while just as much exposed to
danger. It is my
Let's contention tn at,

people show signs
Of panic and hysteria in the
face of imminent danger, the
best way to handle any situa-
ton of this kind is to let it be
aired with the searchlight OF
intelligent publicity. And when
it comes to panicky reports it
should not be difficult to sift
them to determine the real from
the imagined. Better that we
should investigate ten rumors

CnntreL Questions Motive
Of Charter MOUe BGckers
Open Letter To Gardner Charges That Change
In County Government Would Destroy 2-Party
System, Marjority Rule; Would Provide Wedge
For Upset Of Other County Governments

of your &c change-to-charter COM
mittee chairmen and members of
your executive committee will pub
lically admit today that they are
supporters of the Democratic
County Administration of Mont
gomery County, the elected offic-
ials of which Democratic County
Administration received average
majorities of 5000 votes from all
the voters of the County in the last
General Election?
"Then Mr.. Gardner, will you not
admit that prior to the Demo-
cratic primary election in 1888 be-
tween Senator Willard E. Tydings
and Congressman David ]. Lewis
for the Democratic nomination for
United States Senator from Mary
land, that you were a registered
Republican in the 9Th Silver
Spring precinct and that you ac-
lively participated in the regular
party work of the Republican
party organization in and around
Silver Spring in a capacity gener-
ally described as that of Repub-
lican precinct worker?
@Then Mr.. Gardner, did you not
change your party utilization from
Republican to Democrat prior to
the Willard E. Tydings-David ].
Lewis primary so that you could
participate in that Democratic
primaryselection and vote for SEN
ator Tydings for the Democratic
nomination which, of course, gave
you a chance to vote twice against
', the New Deal in one year?
"Now Mr.. Gardner, how in the
name of political good faith, forth
rightness and fair dealing, do you
and your small group of Republi-
can associates refuse to tell the
people of Montgomery County
what your program under charter
would be? Why do you refuse to
say anything about the details of
the plan of the proposed charter
form of government, or anything
about your plan to disfranchise the
voters of the County, or to require
the appointment of a permanent
administrator, or to gerrymander
the County into opposing fraction
al areas, wards or districts, or
about any of your other plans un-
der charter?
"Why are not the voters in
Montgomery County entitled to an
open bill of particulars from you
and your associates?
"Is it because you hope you can
get more votes for utopia against
the present American system of
county government than you can
get for any plan you can think of
and describe in detail to the voters.
"Most Importantly this year, Mr..
Gardner, what are your personal
opinions as to the situation that
the people of the United States
face in the world today and what
would you do in the present world
situation?
"And finally, Mr.. Gardner, would
not increased political disunity on
the political front of Montgomery
County and throughout the other
$500 American counties of the
United States serve very well the
current personal and political OPP
inions and motives Of yourself and
many of your associates in this
charter movement"

Getting to the Maryland po-
litical situation, Governor
OiConor will be able to devote
himself more exclusively to the
heavy duties being demanded of
him than had he been faced
with a hard primary fight. The
general election this year will
be a mere formality. The Re
publican Party experienced real
difficulty in inducing man of
prominence to make campaign.
Governor OConor's effort to
perfume the legislature" has
met with widespread approval
even though little
Pertaining of consequence is
The expected to result.
legislature Many persons re-
gard the effort as
the beginning of a gradual inn
provement in the caliber of men
who will seek a legislative office
in the future.
And I hope the Governor,
while he has public attention
focused on the General Assem-
bly,, will do what he can to
induce the public to support
the amendment to provide more
money for members of the Leg
islature. Maryland's pay for
legislators is almost disgrace
full and this as much as any
other cause has contributed to
low calibre& men being sent to
Annapolis.
Most of the pertaining"

The public delights in the type
of leadership shown by Cover

CHUNGKING, July 7.-The Jap anese have suffered casualties of about a million dead and a million and half wounded in the five years war against China, an Army spokes- man said today as the embattled Chinese went into their sixth year of war, cheered by blows struck re- gently by United States Air Forces against the Jap invader.
 The Chinese in addition. the spokesman said, have taken almost 30,000 prisoners during this period and IA major engagements and 10,- 900 minor engagements have been fought
 The spokesman said it is estimated that about 100000 Jap troops are on duty in China and that the Japs could put about 1000 planes in the air.
 The five years of war with Chira, he added, have cost the Japs 2504 planes.
 In Tokyo, however, the Japs were claiming to have inflicted more than five million casualties on the Chinese, including dead, wounded and missing, of which 2,338,000 are dead.
