and then two years later vote for
ali instrument that would abolish
the office.
Our friends were also at that
time inclined to discount the fact
that disgruntled Democrats, de-
termined to have a change of lead
ership had voted for the charter
simply because the Democratic
machine was against it. There
were also number of voters, in
GLIDING the writer, who felt that
it was not in the American tradi-
ton to try to prevent the writing
of a proposed charter. The people
wanted to take a look and decide
for themselves whether or not they
would accept it.
All this poses another situation.
In 1916 the Charter group and In
dependent Democrats joined the
Republicans and put the latter in
power. Suppose in 1913 the Demo-
Gratis and Republicans defeat the
charter - which party will Chart
Ell support in 1850 or which party
will support Charter? It is con-
ceded that if the charter is voted
down its ghost will soon rise again.
One thing that has surpris Us
is the little mention one hears of
the fact that E. Brooke Lee, after
years of fighting the charter move
ment, endorsed the charter at the
time he handed in his resignation
as Democratic leader last Fall.
Though stunned at the time, no
one seems to have taken the en-
dorsement seriously.
Sometimes we think we just
have no characte~ - we seem to
view everything effectively. To
paraphrase, There is so much
good in the worst of things and so
much bad in the best of things"
that we never seem able to jump
Fundamentally on any bandws gon.
Perhaps this is because of code
we aoorted years ago from another
columnist.
a Never have decided opinions
because if you do it makes for
argument and gives others the
idea that because you do not agree
with them you have no sense in
the first place and are doubtless
influenced by Interior motives in
the second place.

Montgomery Sideights
By ELSIE WHITE HAINES

We have Snot forgotten, dear
readers, that we promised to keep
politics out of this column = but
events are history in the making
and there are times when the
peculiar political situations in the
county overshadow all other SUBJ
jects.
The announcement of Brooke
Johns, chairman of the board of
county commissioners that he will
oppose adoption of the charter
came as no surprise to anyone,
but it has stirred up regular
hornets nest. Mrs. Alma Opal, of
Takoma Park who describes her.
self as Republican in favor of
Charter, in letter to the editor,
this week voices the feeling of a
faction of her party on the sub
jet. In no uncertain terms she
reminds Mr.. Johns that Charter
"made him what he is today"
Mr.. John Werner last week, both
in her radio broadcast and in her
column in The Record, reported an
incident she had overheard in the
courthouse which indicated to her
that there would be a coalition of
Republicans and Democrats to try
to lick Charter in November. OF
course she was not exactly sur
prised, for she has been coming to
commissioners meetings long
enough to be able to read the signs.
She said her attention was at
tracted by the sound of singing in
the passageway back of the hear
ing room, she looked out and saw
Brooke Johns and Charles Jamison,
lone Democratic member of the
board, with arms entwined, singing
to the tune of "Sweet Adeline" =
Down with charter = down with
charter" Mr.. Johns told her
solver Youngblood was singing
tool" t-ei.-r*
We really got smoker from the
reaction of these two clever wom-
en-. We. remembered the look of
wonder and compassion they put
on the writer when we remarked
shortly after the last election that
the charter victory was not as
great as it seemed. They were
flushed with victory - these two
good friends of ours - and as
sured us that the charter move
ment would just "grow and grow"
We do not claim to be a poll
tician, clever or otherwise, but
years of observation of political
patterns made it foregone con-
clusion that many who voted their
approval for the submission of a
proposed charter would not vote
for it after it was written. Then
too it is just not according to hu-
man nature that the Republicans
should vote themselves into office
