Democrats Defend New
System OF Registration

Continued from Page y
citizenship in Montgomery County
before November 1st, last, the pros
pect of a complete registration of
this substantial number of voters
is painful indeed to the local Re-
publican politicians.
Requests that the opportunity
to register be made convenient to
the general suburban communities
were made by many non-political
organizations before the registra-
ton was authorized.
"I have checked the records of
the Board of Election Supervisors
at Rockville and find that their last
meeting was held on January 30th,
when the Republican member of the
Board, named the Republican men,
bers of the eight bipartisan sup
Elemental boards of registration
and moved the resolution that the
boards be authorized to sit in vari-
GUS locations in the suburban coun-
ty each weekday. The Republican
member, also voted for the resolu-
ton.
"The Clerk of the Board of Elec-
ton Supervisors advises me today
that there has been no subsequent
meeting of the board and no con-
ference of the members of the
Board and he is aware of no con-
sideration for suspending the cur
rent registration.
"We feel that it would be fair
TO further point out that the pres
ent Democratic County officials of
Montgomery County were elected
in November, 1888, by average ma
jorities of 5000 votes. That in the
Roosevelt-W Willkie campaign the
new registration showed a net gain
of Democrats over Republicans of
3.450 and the Democrats made an
additional net gain of 45O during
the miscellaneous new registration
which took place in the office of the
Board of Permanent Registration
in the Rockville Courthouse during
1941.
"The Democrats fully expect to
gain more than 5000 additional
registered majority this year, and
in fact, since the last County cleo
tion of November, 1888, we will in
crease the registered Democratic
majority in Montgomery County by
more than the entire registration
of Republicans in this County.
1--WE regard the cost of the pres

easy it would be for different Sec
tions to combine for their own gain
to the discrimination of others
without endangering the council
mems position before the voters
and how the manager could build a
political machine to perpetuate
himself in Office, when at present
each commissioner must face all
county voters. The charter commits
sion if elected and approved by the
voters could put the changes that
we have listed in the new charter
or any other changes that three out
Of five of the charter board might
vote for. Then this new county con-
stitution would go on the ballot in
November, 1914, and if majority
of the people of the county voted
for the new charter, anything that
it contained or authorized or in
fact did not prohibit could become
the law in Montgomery County.
If we must attempt county re-
forms, let's do it at time when
agriculture is not confronted with
the greatest efforts in its history
tc produce war products.

population. Since the new people
are moving into the suburban coun-
ty every ten years, the farming
county districts would have to be
increased in size and so have re-
duced representation even from the
three out of nine councilmen that
the agricultural county would prob
ably start with.
8. AS, under the charter, each
citizen would cast his vote for only
one of the nine councilmen, ne
would be disfranchised, so far as
the other eight are concerned, when
as matter of fact, he is just as
much interested in the honesty and
integrity of these as he is in the
one in his home district.
a. We deplore a situation where
nine men pass all laws and whose
action would not be subjected to the
approval or disapproval of the
Maryland Legislature or the veto
power of the Governor. This is
more serious, when we realize that
all present county laws would be
non-existant unedr the charter, ex-
cept as re-enacted or expressly
stated in such charter. Now the
agricultural people or the laboring
people or the large income tax pay
crs or any other group of County
citizens have all the protection
from quick and arbitrary changes
in county law that the Maryland
Legislature, which has been in op-
Grafton since Colonial times, pro-
vides. Any group of Montgomery
County citizens can count on con-
tinuing to receive the kind of
treatment that their group is af-
forded throughout the State under
the present plan of government.
Under the Charter form of govern
ment, the County law would be
what five out of nine councilmen
and the people who voted for five
out of nine councilmen might want.
5. AS the rural section would
elect no more than three council
men. we see no reason why the SUBJ
urban Indebtedness could not be
saddled on the county by the vote
of the other six.
6. We greatly fear what might
happen to rural roads and schools
in the hands of nine councilmen,
with only three elected from the
agricultural sections.
From the above one can see how

Manners

Some women can't resist cat.
Kittens are even worse. They are
Just too cute to leave alone And
when it seems to be stray cat or
kitten. with no home at all. it's
awfully hard not to pick the thing
up and add it to your own me-
nagerie.
The main trouble with this is that
the girl who can't resist cat in
variably has as many in the house
as the house will stand already. And
when she sees a new stray and
starts to pick it up, her husband or
other members of her family are
very likely to pull long faces and
begin thinking of their futures.
They see their lives filled with cats
And they may feel that their limit
on cats has been reached.
Then their problem is how to
handle the girl with the kitten
mania. II husband says to a
kitten-crazy wife, Don't take il
home. We have enough animals
around already" she is sure to rebel
She'll argue that this poor cat i.
homeless and one more won't make
any difference. Probably, his best
lead is to infer subtly, that the
kitten may be full of germs anc
may give diseases to the kittens al
home. OF course, this may be bill
mean. But it's more likely to worl
than open rebellion.
OF course, the ideal thing woulc
be to have kitten-crazy womer

Stuffed Tomatoes
Always a Treat

Whether we stuff tomatoes with
a harmonizing salad mixture or fill
them with rice or bread crumbs for
a baked vegetable, one of the quick
est sources for a Complementary
stuff1ng is ready-to-use chopped ripe
olives. The chopped dark fruit works
magic in baked entrees of meat or
vegetables. And it has special
flavor affinity for tomatoes in any
form.
A mixture of chopped ripe olives
and minced onion in cream cheese
makes a nutritious salad stuffing
for tomato cases. Or stuff tomatoes
with mixture of vegetables
chopped cucumber, minced green
pepper and shredded lettuce with
chopped ripe olives. The fruit is
equally at home, too, with a sea
food or chicken salad stuffng for
the succulent red-meated cases.
AS an accompaniment for the main
meat dish, try filling prepared to-
mato shells with a bread and olive
stuff1ng. Chop the tomato pulp
removed in the preparation of shells.
Add an equal amount of soft bread
crumbs and a teaspoon of minced
onion sauteed in butter. Blend in
enough ripe olives to give flavor
character and use to stuff the un-
peeled shells. Top each stuffed
tomato with a half teaspoon of
mayonnaise and bake in a moderate

Change in Child
Is a Gradual
Procedure
Many Parents Fail
To Notice Growfh
To Adolescence
By A ngeio Pafri

d. n AUxttO HTt
Parents often say, And all OF q
sudden he changed The change
was not sudden. They hadn't no.
ticed the gradual change that was
creeping over the child as he grew
from infancy to adolescence. That
change is slow, coming day by day
through the years. 1t remains un-
noticed until it has reached a stage
so different from that of childhood
that even parents who have lived so
long with the child as to be un-
seeing cannot help but see.
A child of S gives his parents little
trouble. They tell him what to do
and he usually does it promptly
enough to cause no discussion. BY
the time he is or 8 he Is slower
to follow, but still he does so, at least
TO all acceptable standard. But along
about the time he is Il or so he
suddenly changes" He speaks out
loudly. refuses to obey, disturbs the
even life of the home. He won't and
he won't, and he doesn't.
He has been getting to this point
for IA years and nobody noticed.
Nobody noticed the shadow in his
eyes when he was ordered here and
there. Nobody felt the protest in
his mind when he was forced to take
what was given him without a voice
in the matter. Nobody saw the flash
of anger and the stiffening of his
body when he was refused permis-
sion to go along with the lads OF
his age as he wanted to 60.
Nobody thought of him as per-
son with will and wish Of his
own. He was lust a child" and
children should be seen and not
heard" That is why the sudden
ness"
Growth is not sudden. Habits OF
mind and behavior are not suddenly
formed. Children's attitudes are not
set in an hour or day. Long years
of their childhood's experiences go
into the child they are at IA. 1t is
not possible to keep a child in bond
age, physical and mental, and then,
on his twenty-first birthday, or his
eighteenth, either, expect him to
change overnight into a responsible
self-directing individual.
Training, like growth, must be q
long and gradual process. Parents
and children must take the road step
by step together. The moment a
child can accept responsibility for
SO small a matter as holding the
soap for his bath he must be granted
that privilege and applauded for its
exercise, and from that time for
ward be encouraged to do for him.
self. carry responsibility for himself
in every way he can manage. His
development then will be based
on experiences through the years of
his childhood and he will not ar
rive at adolescence as a rebellious,
frustrated child. He will be intelli-
gent, adjusted. adaptable and there
will be no sudden change for the
worse in him.
Rearing a child to accept partner
ship in the home is task that re-
quires all a parent has of intelli-
gence, understanding, ability to work
and to play, to lead and to guide
1t is a 24-hour- day job that lasts
for lifetime. There is no more re-
warding labor in this world "A

tenance."
