Many Montgomery County politicians including at

the best political vehicle for long time control OF Mont
pomery County ever presented to the Democratic
County Machine The Democrats would only be re-
aured to win election in the winter of 1949 for the

tickets.
These political observers say the Democrats would
win that fight in a walk.
Then the members of the first County Council could
put in their friends lfeterm charter department
heads as authorized and required by what then would
be The new Constitution The Democrats would
then continue in control of the County until this first
crop of 1fetermers died retired without the neces
sity of winning another election
That the Montgomery County Democrats have had
the decency to decline the of such Trojan Horse
for the creation of such political Juggernaut is
tribute to their political honesty But if this Trojan
Horse is forced upon them, there is reason to be-

This SIG 60944 does not include the Charter Com
ittee expenditures since last July for their current
most violent and most expensive political smearing
of your County.
When they finish paying for the bad advertising
they have given Montgomery County during the cur
rent four months they will probably have spent 5000
to inaccurately and unfairly attack the governmental
services and general living advantages of Montgomery
County.
As of July they had paid Mrs. Stella Werner some
thing 1000 in salaries and travelling expenses as
the mouthpiece of this group of politically ambitious
agitatOrs.
