OF so many outofStae persons to both jobs and to

Montgomery County Record last week summed it up
thus
"The Personnel Board and the County Council has
persistenty held to the policy of For the benefit of the
taxpayer we should get the best qualified person for
the salary offered
In considering qualifications of applicants the Per-
sonnet Board has maintained If all other factors are
equal then the question of local residence may be the
deciding factor. Here is where disagree. Local resi-
dence is factor before it becomes the final factor
less highly specialized training is necessary. 1t might
even be valuable than year of college or one
year of experience elsewhere. man whose community
relations known, whose children attend the local
schools who attends the local church, who knows the
county, who pays local taxes and who does not have
migratory disposition has something to offer job which
is not the final factor His chief handicap is he knows
too much about county politics. 1t is also true that the
world is small place today to the extent that

up an advisory committee to study the need for some
form of planning for upper Montgomery County instead

cude that the time is not ripe for any control = if SO
the idea will be dropped for the present Serving the
committee set up by the Council Tuesday is serious
responsibility especially to lifelong residents of the
rural sections who had thought to escape the Jugger
naut of progress for decade or two at least
The greatest danger to the farming area at present
seems to be that of cheap subdivisions which might be-
come established there However the Health Depart
ment keeps keen eye construction from the
health angle and the pending road ordinance should
take care of new road building, it is hoped only
minimum of extra planning is indicated
The Sentinel which for IS years has worked for the
welfare of the farming is pleased to have its editor
appointed to the committee 1t is particularly gratied
that the committee has free rein in the matter of wheth
