Shameful Neglect Of
Montgomery Schools

The Montgomery County Charter
Committee todays continued its at
tacks on the county Democratic ad-
ministration in charging shameful
neglect and shortsightedness in the
construction and upkeep of school
property"
At the same time, Irwin l. Main,
chairman of the Maryland-N National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, labeled the committees at
tack on the efficiency of the COM
MISSIONS employees as "a political
untruth"
County Republican leaders en-
tered the dispute by charging that
Alfred D. Noyes, chairman of the
County Democratic Congress, has
attempted to confuse" the voters
on the COP stand on the charter
issue.
Statement Issued.
The Charter Committee, in its
statement, declared that Bethesda
Chevy Chase High School has no
physics laboratory and only one
small gymnasium for more than 800
students.
Gymnasium and auditorium
space are inadequate in all sections
of the county" the committee as
serted" and there are few, If any
schools with cafeteria provided for
in, the original plans.
Extra facilities, such as libraries
** have been paid for through the
Parent Associations.
The committee also charged that
"shoddy construction" has led to
unusually high cost of mainte-
nance" Tie group cited report in
1914 by the Education Subcommittee
of the County Postwar Planning
Committee which found the school
properties in a rundown condition" ="
Main Denies Charges.
In denying Charter Committee
charges that certain" commission
employees are LAX and inefficient" !"
Mr.. Main said:
THE truth is that employees of the
Planning Commission are an ex-
tremely industrious, capable and re-
liable group of people, most Of whom
are highly trained in their work"
Walter W. Dawson, chairman OF
the Republican State Central Com
mittee for the county, denied a
charge by Mr.. Moves that Repub-
lican candidates were double deal
ing" the voters in attempting to
obtain charter support.
THE stand of the Republican
candidates. he declared, was in
dividually announced by them well
in advance of the primary cleo
tien last June. At that time the
Charter Committee submitted ques-
tionnaires to all candidates on
both tickets.
Republican candidates ap-
proved submission of the Charter
Board question to a referendum of
the voters Of the county.
THE Democratic machine boss,
E. Brooke Lee, on the other hand
has committed his hand
picked candidates to the astound-
ing proposition that the people Of
Montgomery County should not
even be permitted to vote on the
charter to be submitted to them
in 1948.
