Montgomery Board
To Be Defendant in
Charter Court Test

The Board Of Montgomery
County Commissioners has agreed
to become a defendant in a suit
which challenges the legality of a
proposed charter form of county
government which voters will ac-
cept or reject in November.
After a commissioners meeting
yesterday, Board President Brooke
Johns said the move was decided
on so that If any revisions are
necessary before the referendum in
November. the altered charter may
be legally advertised in SUFFICIENT
time.
About three weeks ago, Judges
Stedman Prescott and Charles w.
Woodward, in ruling on a demurrer
to suit, held one feature Of the
proposed charter violates the State
constitution. The court said appro-
priation of funds constitutes legis-
lative action and must be made in
May instead of in executive Ses-
sion in June as proposed.
Should Be Put to Vote.
They did not pass final judge
ment, however, on the suit Of Hubert
A. Schneider, Bethesda and Wash
ington attorney, which seeks an in
junction to prevent a referendum
on the charter. The judges indi-
Gated, in ruling on the demurrer,
that voters should have an oppor-
tunity to act If the offending pro-
vision is removed.
Mr.. Johns said the board had
been told the judges wished to issue
certain instructions to the county
government in the final decree and
that the commissioners would volun-
tarily become defendants in the
suit so that the court could take
jurisdiction over them in the case.
May Re-advertize.
Mr.. Johns said he felt the in
structions might be of such nature
that the board would be required
to re-advertize the charter in a
modified form-probably covering
the objections raised in the de-
murrer ruling-before November.
F.. Barnard Welsh, attorney to the
board, said he planned to file neces-
sary papers within few days. De-
PENDANTS in the Injunction suit are
the Charter Committee and Charter
Board, leaders of efforts to replace
the present flve-member Board OF
County Commissioners with a seven
member county council, and the
County Board of Election Super
visors, which has jurisdiction of the
ballots.

Court Hears Arguments
In Salisbury, Judge Levin Claude
Bailey of the First Judicial Circuit,
who is chairman of the Standing
Committee on Rules of Practice
and Procedure for the Court of Ap-
peals, today heard arguments against
extending the Baltimore Supreme
Bench rules to the rest of the
State.
Oscar Morris, managing editor OF
the Salisbury Times, said the rules
can prevent the public from having
information to which it is entitled
"They are apparently designed
he said, "to police the court and the
law enforcement agencies through
the policing Of the media of news
dissemination rather than uphold
the constitutional rights of the ac-
cused"
MIR. Morris said proposed "Rule 9"
is unconstitutional.
"All the constitutional guarantees
are merly democratic safeguard of
the peoples right to know those
things which affect their lives" he
said. Those guarantees are the
major safeguard against the police
State"
IF put into effect" Mr.. Morris
charged, "Rule 9 could become a
curtain drawn against public scru-
tiny of the police and the courts"
Extension Is Opposed.
Mr.. James said he interviewed
editors Of weeklies and daily news
papers in all sections Of the State
and found them 100 per cent op-
posed" to extension of the Baltimore
Supreme Bench rule.
He said that the case of five Bal
timore area radio stations cited for
contempt by the Baltimore Supreme
Bench for their handling of stories
of murder probably will come
up for discussion" at Saturdays
meeting.
The murder case was that of Eu-
gene H. James, 81, colored janitor
