Two Nearby. Maryland
Counties Expected 10
Cast $4,000 Votes
BY ]. b. ZATMAN.

More than $4,000 voters In Mont
gomery and Prince Georges Counties
are expected to cast their ballots
Tuesday, with the charter question
in Montgomery County overshadow-
ing all other issues in the nearby
Maryland area.
Polls in Montgomery County will
open at s am. and close at 7 pm,
while those in Prince Georges Coun-
ty will epen an hour later and
close alsosat 7 pm.
Record registrations of $4,000 In
Prince Georges County and approx
mately $4,000 in Montgomery Coun-
ty, brought the prediction by politi-
cal workers Of the 10000 vote.
As Montgomery County's charter
battle reached its final stages. both
factions confidently forecast victory,
although refusing to estimate the
size of the majority. .
Acting under constitutional pro-
vision adopted in 1915, Montgomery
County Is the first county in Mary
land to avail itself of the oppor-
tunity tosy0te for a charter form of
government since Baltimore County
defeated the charter plan shortly
after the World War.
Meanwhile. in a statement last
night, Francis w. Hill. jr.. chairman
of the Republican State Committee
for Montgomery County declared
that the Republican national ticket
will carry the county by large
majority. He asserted that Gov
Thomas E. Dewey and Gov. John
w. Bricker will get the votes of a
large number of Democrats
Lacy Shaw, chairman of the
Democratic State Central Commit
tee for the county, countered with
the prediction of a Democratic vic
tory. both congressional and ma
tional, in the county.
Political observers, however, gave
Representative Beall, Sixth District.
Republican, which includes Mont
gomery County, the nod over his
Democratic opponent, Daniel F.

P. Taft, director Of the ONCE OF
Wartime Economic Affairs, State
Department, in radio talks, urged
county voters to approve the pro-
posed charter.
Allen H. Gardner, president OF
the Charter Committee, quoted
three county residents as denying
statements by the anticharter
group that they opposed. the pro-
posed charter.
He said the three persons, all OF
whom told him they favor adoption
OF the proposed new setup, are Mrs
Carolyn H, Votaw, Takoma Park
Mrs. George E. Hamilton, ST.. Be-
theSda, and Mrs. Morrison M
Clark, Chevy Chase.

Votaw Thursday expressing oppo.
sition to the charter. Mrs. Nicholson
said she even read the statement

tee, admitted, however, that Mrs
Hamilton's name had appeared In
error recently in a committee ad-
vertisement in one of the county.
newspapers.
In his address over Station

proposed charter would give county
employees real sense of security
by placing them under civil service
Mr.. Taft, who spoke over Sta
ton VOL, emphasized that county
government under the proposed
charter would be more business
like and more efficient"
Judge Brault, in a statement last
night, charged that the proposed
charter, if approved, would result
in an increase of public spending
with the citizens and taxpayer de-
prived of his present ability to stop
or check such increases, or to ap-
prove the proposals for which he is
willing to be taxed"
