The Editor,
The Montgomery County Sentinel,
Rockville, Maryland.
Dear Editor:
/ am sorry that E. Brooke Lee,
in his recent letter which appeared
in your valued paper, headed,
What Your County Had When
The COP Came H." evidently for
got to mention that the county had,
at that time, about 100000
worth of deadwood and political
hangers-on of the Democratic ma
chine on the county payroll, to-
gether with expense accounts and
what have yous eating up the
county's money. And was the COP
pleased and grateful? No, the mas
ty, ungrateful COP got rid of the
deadwood, Democratic machine
hangers-on with county jobs, ex-
pense accounts and what-have-
yous, thus saving the county's tax
payers the $80,O0O.OO or so year.
One could just expect something
like that from the nasty COP.
Very truly yours,
MRS. M. ].

Driving Courses
Prove Popular
In High Schools

A step forward in the teen-age
driver training program is a new
law, passed during the last session
OF the Legislature, which permits
youngsters to take high school
driving courses without buying q
learners permit.
The new law allows them to OPP
crate dual-control training cars
under the high school program,
without permit. 1t also provides
that certificate showing that
they have completed the course
may be accepted by the licensing
authorities in lieu of written
examination when students apply
for permit. They are still re-
quired however, to take a road test
and to pay the $1.00 fee for a
learners permit before receiving
their permanent license.
The new driving courses are
popular with the school children
ard have the approval and cooper
alton of the Montgomery County
Safety Board, the Board of Edu-
cation and the A. A. A. The latter
organization trained the instruct
ors who are teaching the young
people in the high schools. The
course is open to students who
have passed their 18th birthday so
that they will know how to drive
when they are eligible for a Ii
cense at 16. Washington I. Cleve-
land, head of Washington's AAA,
points out that teen-agers drive
dangerously not because they are
too young but because they have
been improperly trained. He be-
lieves that the driver training pro-
gram in the schools can do more
for safety than a law forbidding
youngsters to drive, which would
inevitably be violated.
