I'VE are not attacking any in
dividuals who served efficiently in
the present government, Mr..
Hamel said, ''but we do think the
system in vogue is outmoded and
places too much appointive power
in the hands of the Circuit Court
judge and outside the Board of
Supervisors. The executive secre-
tary has no real power of admins
tration and his Office can be abol-
ished overnight by. the board"
Both Systems Provide Full Power.
What we want is a system
which provides an administrative
head with full powerto administer
the business of the county. This
is provided underSboth the exec
utive and manger forms.
1--WE believe. however, that the
county administrators recon-
mendations for appointments
should be confirmed by the Board
of Supervisors and that the elec-
ton of the board should be by
districts instead of at large. This
is exactly what the county exec
utive form provides"
Discussing the merits of at large
election Of supervisors. Omer l..
Hirst, chairman of the County
Good Government Committee, re-
leased a letter from the chairman
of the Henrico County Board of
Supervisors explaining why that
county shifted from at-large elec-
ton of it's board members, to elec-
ton by districts.
Chairman w. H. Ferguson said
Henrico County's methods of

) by the Legislature after the county
manager plan had been adopted
by popular vote by the political
opposition who Sabotaged the Situ-
alton by inducing the delegate
from Henrico to secure passage of
a law changing the election of
supervisors to a district basis.
i Mr.. Hirst said Henrico's method
of electing supervisors has been
referred to many times by those

Frederic P. Lee
To Support COP
Council Ticket
Montgomery County
Council President
Attacks Machine

Frederic P. Lee, president of the
Montgomery County Council and
a self-styled lifelong Democrat, -
announced last night he will vote
for Republican candidates for the
council in November.
He made the announcement ia
a letter to Warren Browning
Montgomery's Democratic State
Central Committee chairman, in
which Mr.. Leee bitterly attacked
the Democratic Council candi-
dates.
'The Democratic candidates
for the County Council (save two1
are organization subordinates sup
porting a machine whose leaders
for years opposed the adoption of
our home-rule council-manager
form of government and have
since constantly sought through
numerous devices to obstruct its
functioning and to bring about
its control for their own partisan
and personal ends" he wrote.
Calling the contrast between
the two groups of candidates
clear" Mr.. Lee accused the
Democrats of resorting to Cyclone
cellar" legislation to counteract
the home-rule charter movement
In the county.
He said the Republicans OBJ
jective is to run the county
strictly as a business enterprise
in the public interest" without
patronage or political manipula-
ton. ~
Mr.. Lee. who is not seeking re-
election, is a prominent WASH
ington attorney who has long been
a supporter of Montgomery's
Charter Committee. The commit
tee is backing all six Republican
candidates and two Democrats,
Mrs. Stella Werner and Grover
Walker, for the council.
Meanwhile, three other leading
Charter supporters continued their
attacks on the Democratic ma
chine"
County Councilman j. Douglas
Bradshaw. COP candidate for the
Maryland House of Delegates, de-
clared that this unholy combina-
ton of E. Brooke Lees political
debtors will revert to their true
colors'' and asked complete po-
litical oblivion" for them. Prais-
ing the record of the Republican
delegation sent to Annapolis after
the county "repudiated the Dem
ocratic machine" in 1916, Mr..
Bradshaw said home -rule meas
ufes had been thwarted by The
shameful connivance' of Coy.
Lane and E. Brooke Lee, veteran
Democratic organization leader in
the county.
Another Charterite, Allen Gard
ner, listed these accomplishments
of the Charter Committee-spon-.
sored County Council:
Sound county government fl
nances, reduced suburban district
tax rates. sound zoning practices,
prompt street improvements and
cure of shocking" tax delin-
quency trends.
And Col. Norman B. Ames, pres
ident of the County Charter Com
mittee, asserted the county's gov
ernment will slump back into
its old. vicious bossism if the Dem
ocratic slate carries the election. +"

Lane Fires Magistrate
For Part in Upsetting
fractional Peace Pact
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Oct. 21.-Gov
Lane fired a city police magis-
ltrate today for helping rock the
Democratic boat in Baltimore.
1 A recently built harmony al
lance among the city's party
leaders seemed to have collapsed
1t is possible that the repercus-
Sions might mean the difference
between victory and defeat for
the governor in his bid for a
second term at the election next
month.
Reuben Caplan, magistrate in
the Northern District Police Court,
got this wire from the governor:
This is to advise that your
assignment is terminated as of the
conclusion of the afternoon ses-
sion of October 21, 1880"
Mr.. Caplan is a member of the
Baltimore City Democratic Cen
tral Committee. He was one of
those who voted with the ma
jority yesterday, 1913. to nomi-
nate Leroy Shaughnessy as the
Democratic candidate for regis
ter of wills.
Peace Offering for Curran.
Only hours before. Gov. Lane
had sat up most of the night in
a pow WOW with leaders of the
rival Democratic factions and
went back to his campaigning on
the Eastern Shore with the under
standing that the nomination was
to go to Robert Bouse.
Gov. Lane had agreed to the
naming Of Mr.. Bouse as a peace
offering to, the party leaders who
are loyal to William Curran. Mr..
Curran had backed George P. Ma
honey in the primary against Gov.
Lane. The Bouse nomination was
supposed to heal some of the scars
left by the bitter primary CAM
fpaign.
When the committee vote was
taken. however, Mayor Thomas
ID'Alesandro of Baltimore and his
closest political OPERATOR James
Il Pollack, had lined up the ma
joTHy for Mr.. Shaugnessy.
It had become the committees s
business to make the nomination
because John H. Bouse, longtime
register of wills, died after he had
been renominated in the primary.
Pollack Rumors Recalled.
. The Curran forces wanted to
see his son get the job.
Gov. Lanes reaction to the re-
buff was aimed at Mr.. Caplan
because the magistrate is the only
man on the committee who holds
q gubernatorial appointment. He
is Pollack man.
The whole thing recalled rumors
going the rounds couple of weeks
ago that Mr.. Pollack might turn
his back on Gov. Lane and give
at least tacit support in the city
to the Republican candidate
Theodore R. McKeldin. Mr.. Pol
lacks district was the only one in
the city Gov. Lane succeeded in
carrying against Mr.. Mahoney in
the primary.

Capt. SChnitzler
Died in New York
Was Former Prominent
Resident of Village

Word of the death of Capt.
John T. Schnitzler, one-time
prominent Marysville resident
and commanding officer of the
Ohio National Guard Co. here,
was received this morning by Dr.
and Mrs. Angus MacIvor.
Information concerning funeral
services was not contained in
the telegram received this MORN
ing, but is expected later.
Capt. Schnitzler, who was S3
years old, died early this morn
ing, after a short illness. He came
to Marysville in 1908 when the
John Wildi Evaporated Milk Co.
(now Nestles) moved here.
He owned the farm west of
Marysville where William l..
Coleman now lives, and during
the summers resided on the farm,
living in Marysville in the win
ter. He and his family were
members of the First Presbyteri-
an Church, and Mr.. Schnitzler
served as captain of the military
company during his residence in
Marysville.
Although he resided in Ma
rysVille only comparatively
short length of time, he always
liked this community above any
other place he ever resided. His
last visit to Marysville was two
years ago.
Before coming to Marysville
he resided in Chicago where he
and his father and brother were
engaged in the advertising busi.
ness. Upon leaving Marysville ir
March, 1913, he went to New
York City, where he built sue
cessful and prosperous business
He was married to the former
Stella Montgomery, who was one
of three sisters of John Mont
4 gomery, general manager of thu
Wildi Co. here. Mr.. Montgomery
later became u. S. ambassador t.
Hungary, under an appointment
by President Roosevelt.

his wife, two sons, John, of At
lanta, Ca; and James, associated
with his father in business, anC
three grandchildren.

Blood Unit Plans
Another Visit

Red Cross Bloodmobile will be
in Marysville Tuesday, Jan. "a
from 10 a. m. to A p. m. The
headquarters will lbe set up in
the basement of the Trinity
Lutheran Church.
Quota for this visit is 100 pints,
the entire quota for Union Coun-
ty in 1850 being 800 pints. AS
planned now, 800 pints will be
collected at Marysville, 200 al
Redwood, and 100 at Plain City
In 1949 the county's quota was
400 pints, only 327 being col
lected. People from Union Coun-
ty received approximately 400
pints of blood in 1949. The quota
is based entirely upon the needs
of the county. According to fig
ures released by William D.
Lee, chairman, people living or
working in Marysville donated
rs per cent of the blood.
1t is thought that this time OF
year is the best for rural par
ticipation in the program and an
effort is being made to secure
donors from rural areas for the
Jan. "a visit.
A blood donor must be be-
tween the ages of 18 and 60,
weigh l10 pounds, and be in
good health. Donors 1921 must
have their parents written per-
mission. Anyone wishing to give
blood should call the Red Cross
Office at 3941 or Mr.. Lee at 2591.
