Charter Committee
AssaiIs Morgan for
Political Activities

The Montgomery County Char.
ter Committee today criticized Jc
v. Morgan, county civil service
commissioner, for his political &C.
tivities."
Declaring that in the past many
county employees have been forced
to "electioneer" during working
hours and to make political con-
tributions to the organization ir
power because Of fear for tl1eil
jobs, the committee asserted:
"The county is now engaged In q
political campaign in which heav,
expenditures are being incurred by
the political faction in control Of
the county government.
Call for Neutral Stand.
"One would think that the
countX's civil service commissions,
should observe a neutral position
so that county employees could be
more certain Of fair treatment in
the event they should be asked by
political leaders to do political
campaigning or to make party con-
tributions and should refuse.
Instead, however, Mr.. Morgan
has accepted appointment as chair.
man OF the organization of precinct
4 OF the seventh election district fol
the powerful Brooke Lee machine
and has been working in tina,
capacity in recent days"
Describing the charter groups
criticism as without merit" Mr.
Morgan emphasized that under the
regulations made by him as civil
service commissioner, no interfer-
ence Of any person uneer the merit
system can be had because of politi.
cal activities"
He pointed out that any county
employe covered by the merit sys.
tenn may engage in political activ.
tiles for the Democratic, Republican
or Charter party" provided they
do not use the time or facilities
OF the county government.
During my own and I might cal
my free time, when I am not EN-.
ployed in my omcial duties" Mr.
Morgan said, Il reserve the righ,
TO engage in any political activitie.
that seem best for me and will con.
tinue to do so.
II consider it the duty and thu
responsibility Of every citizen o,
Montgomery County to take ar
active part in politics and to ad.
vance the cause Of that party thai
to his mind will better promote the
welfare of the county and his owr
immediate section"

the public library was the peoples
university"
Miss Clark described how county
Libraries could be set up under the
public library law passed by the
1945 legislature.
This law provides that county
commissioners may establish county
Libraries by. levying a tax of not
less than 2 cents per 800 of as
sessable property, or by appropriat-
ing an equivalent sum annually.
Voted by Six Counties.
Cecil, Garrett, Hartford, Howard
Prilce Georges and Talbot Counties
already have voted the tax to set
up county libraries.
Miss Clark said the free library
is our best means of self-education'
and are necessary even where there
are school libraries because "it isn't
reasonable to spend eleven OF
twelve years teaching children tc
read and to appreciate good litera-
ture and then fail to provide them
with facilities for continuing ant
developing their reading interests.

New Rent Cut SOUGHT
In SuitIand Manor

Residents of the Suitland Manor
Apartments in Prince Georges
County, who have had their monthly
rental fees both lowered and in
creased by the OPA during the past
six months, will try once more for
another reduction because of an
alleged failure by the owners to i'm
prove deterioration conditions there,
it was learned today.
When the same complaints were
made by some of the $50 apartment
dwellers in the project last January
the QPA's area rent control Office in
Silver Spring ordered a IS reduction
for all apartment on grounds that
the property had deprecated.
Later, following an appeal by the
owners that the reduction was un-
justified, the OPA regional Office in
New York ruled some restoration
had been made and substantial
janitor service provided. Because of
this, the New York Office on May l
directed that rents be raised So a
month.
Master Sergt. Howard L. Slower,
4745 Homer avenue Sc, one of the
compliments, said most of the
same conditions still exist which
prompted residents to protest to
the OPA the first time.
Sergt. Stover, who is stationed at
Boiling Field, is one of three neigh
bors who have volunteered to can
vass the community for protests.
Others are John M. McInerney, 4752
Homer avenue and Ferd w. Brown,
1852 Homer avenue.
Frank c. Taylor, acting area rent
director following the resignation
last month Of Mr.. Woogerd, today
said the residents latest complaints
would be given all consideration, but
added, "the apartment owners would
also be given q chance" to remedy
the situation. He said complaints
would be examined individually and
not by petition.

authorized to solicit funds on its
| behalf.

ton in Seattle are now cGnduc-
ted by the American White Cross.

solicitors are required II obtain
permit from the License Division
of the City Comptoller's Office,
! but contributors must also be on
their guard.
The police have assured Us
that they are on the alert against

representative asserted. They
must have a specific complaint of
Misrepresentation, however, before
they can take action under the
law"
