ten there is nothing exciting to re-
port but it does seem evident that
the new chairman of the Washington
County Delegation intends to live
up to his public statement that no
controversial bills will be considered
by the Delegation without being
fully aired first.
| have it on very good authority
that just last week local delega-
ton went down to Annapolis for
the purpose of getting a bill intro
duced, but the chairman of the dele
cation promptly sent it back.
This, l believe, is as it should be.
The voters of the county have the
right to know all about any bill that
effects the taxpayers and l hope that
the County Delegation will continue
to insist that all proposed legisla-
ton affecting Washington County be
made public before being dropped
in the hopper.
In the Nations Capital the 10th
Congress is now in session and UP
this way interest centers in Con-
gresham j. Glenn Beall, who, hav-
ing completed his term as rookie"
Congressman, now energies as a
full-Aedged member of that august
body
During his first term of office,
Congressman Beall wisely felt his
way along, working in close cooper
alton with the Republican leader of
the House. His constituents from the
Sixth District fully agreed with that
cautious policy and were quite sat-
isfied to receive prompt and court
eous replies to their letters and to
shake the hand of their Congress-
man when they met him at meet
ings, social gatherings and political
rallies. But today, the picture is
quite different.
The Sixth District is one of the
fastest growing Districts in the
United States and it's voters (of
both parties) are looking to their
Congressman for leadership in i'm
proving conditions in the District.
Voters In the Sixth District are
vitality interested in flood control
measures for the Potomac River.
The War Department has Just
comprehensive report on
this matter and it is to be hoped
that Congressman Beall will get
right behind it and see that flood
control measures are taken at once.
The Federal Government is spend
ing millions of dollars in public
buildings in Washington, adjacent
to the water area, and l would sug-
gest that Congressman Beall get
some Of this money appropriated for
Potomac River flood control pur-
poses, otherwise the old Potomac
will just keep on rolling along and
overlooking its banks from time to
time, with the loss of thousands of
dollars to property owners in the
Sixth District.
While the voters of the Sixth Dis
trict are vitality interested in Ma
tional affairs, they are not interested
in who gets what! when! and
where! But they are interested in
the right leadership in Congress.
