American diplomatic and eco
nomic officials, it was learned
today, are studying the possibil-
Iity of applying to Argentine firms
the policy of continuing black
list sanctions in force for a pro-
longed period after the war.
Existence of this postwar club
was announced a month ago as a
means of bringing into line still
uncertain firms in neutral coun-
tries which were under pressure to
decrease their aid to the enemy.
At that time the principle was
laid down that in general the sane
tions would be lifted from Latin
American firms as quickly as pos
sible after the war, but would be
continued in force against European
firms, penalizing them during the
critical period of reconstruction.
Now, however, it virtually has
been decided to make an exception
to the Latin American policy in

Death Claims
Noted Citizen
OF Sandy Spring
Allan Farquhar, 80, Spent
Entire Life At Ancestral
Home

Allan Farquhar of Sandy Spring
who celebrated his Goth birthday
November 23, 1943, died Tuesday
at the Montgomery County Cen
eral Hospital after an illness of
several weeks. Funeral services
were held this Thursday morn
ing in the old vine covered Friends
Meeting House in Sandy Spring,
with burial in the adjoining ceme-
terry.
The son of the late William
Henry Farquhar, Mr.. Farquhar
was born and lived his life on the
farm owned by several generations
of his family.
Surviving are son, A. Douglas
Farquhar, assistant secretary
treasurer of the Mutual Fire In
surance Co., and two daughters.
Mrs. R. Bentley Thomas. Sandy
Spring and Mrs. R. v. A. Mills,
Ponca City, Okla.
Mr. Farquhar had been secre-
tary and treasurer of the Mutual
Fire Insurance Company of Mont
gomery County since 1895 and 9
director of the First National
Bank of Sandy Spring and Of the
Montgomery County General Hos
pital since these institutions were
started.
On March 4, 1865 Mr.. Farquhar
was with his father near the east
steps of the Capitol in Washington
when President Lincoln took the
oath of Office for the second ss,1n.
and he has been at approximately
the same spot for every Inaugural
tion ceremony since then, 20 in
all.
One OF his earliest recOllections
was hearing the guns at the battle
of Gettysburg and it was dis
heartening to be going through
another war with four grandsons
and many other relatives in the
service.
While not birthright member
of the Sandy Spring Society of
Friends he joined many years ago
and on an average missed "goine
to Meeting" not more than three

Charter Debated
At Damascus

The first public discussion of
the Montgomery County charter
issue was held last Thursday night
at Damascus. The discussion was
in the form of a debate arranged
under auspices of the Farm Dis
cussion Group of Woodfield. Ken
meth Windham presided. Mrs. Min
ier Hostetler, member of the char
ter board, former president Of the
Maryland League of Women Vot-
ers, presented the affirmative side
with Roger j. Whiteford, promin-
ent Washington attorney and a
resident of Chevy Chase, arguing
against any change in the present
government.
In arguing the affirmative Mrs
Hostetler. stated that she would
merely present her remarks in an
international approach" She ac-
cordingly traced the history of the
charter movement which had its
beginning in the Brookings Insti-
tuition report and eliminated in the
election. of the charter committee
in 1912. Mr.. Whiteford on the
other hand, made a two-fisted at
tack on any plan to change the
present governmental machinery
of Montgomery County. He stat
ed that he thought it inconceivable
that the voters Of the county, if
they were familiar with the facts
about the county government,
would vote to turn their affairs
over to group of theorists who
would attempt to operate the
county's affairs "on somebody
spare time.
Attendance at the meeting was
disappointment to both sides.
The small number present was
attributed more to the uncomfort-
able weather than to lack of in
terest in the charter which will be
voted on in November.
During the course of the cam
paign THE SENTINEL hopes to
present to it's readers carefully
prepared articles for and against
the charter.

or perhaps, because Of their handi-
caps endeared themselves to the

On August 18th, three of these
same men returned to the Grove
and an informal reception was
held for them at the Woman's
Clubhouse at which time they met
those of their former hosts and

here. Two of the men, Charles Nc
CONCEAL and Walter Antoniewicz,
are now on a government tour of
hospitals to show the handicapped
boys there how well they get along
with their artificial hands and
artificial legs, respectively. (You

conversation, it seemed that two
Of the original ten men had died,
but the other eight are all leading

at one time they were frozen in
the sea and had TO be cut out :
they had to exist on Russian ra-
tions.
AS a result of the privations
young Hawkins became a war
casualty. After months of hos

discharged. AS the next best

to show the play on the word
"IF" I have tried to indicate

"IFS" enumerated can be
achieved we will have established
the basis for long era of peace

Secretary of State Cordell Hull

there must be a means of head
