ping which has existed for some
time between the distaff members
of the Council is unbecoming and
undignified. Party lines are drawn
distinctly within the Council, made
obvious within the Council, and
this does not build up good will
among those who have believed re-
peated assertions of mo politics"
1t seems elementary, but the
Council should know that people
who run for public Office are the
whipping boys for public opinion.
Unless ones intestinal fortitude is
great enough to accept this with
good grace, that person has no
business in public office.
Public officers are no longer pri-
vate individuals and they must ac-
cept the prodding along with the
applause.
The people quarrel too with
the recent decision to continue with
the closed sessions of the Council
in which the meat of County bust
ness is transacted. Most people in
this County believe that all of the
business of the County is the bust
ness of all the people.
No one pretends to believe that
the closed sessions of the Council
are concerned only with log rolling
deals or that Council members
cannot be trusted to do County
business behind closed doors.
Rather, they believe the Council
sets up a dangerous precedent.
Presidents can be we'll used by
men of sinister intent and nefari-
Gus purposes. We do not want to
sow these seeds in Montgomery
County.
The people of Montgomery
County believe they are entitled to
know the opinions, means and
methods used by the Council in
reaching the decisions it hands
down at its open sessions. We
people in this County feel we are
grown up now and can be told,
without too much quibbling, what
makes our local government tick.
We feel we have a right to ex-

the first series of tests given last
spring. About 60 percent received
scores of 70 or better. The tests
are conducted by the Educational
Testing Service of Princeton, New
Jersey. Tests in this area will
be given at the University of
Maryland, College Park.
The criterion for deferment a.
a student is either satisfactory
score (70) on the Selective Serv-
ice College Qualification test, or
satisfactory rank in class upper
half of the freshman class, upper
two-thirds Of the sophomore class,
upper three-fourths of the junior
class.
Seniors accepted for admission
to a graduate school satisfy tho
criteria if they stand in the upper
half Of their classes, or make
score of rs or better on the test.
Students already enrolled in grad
uate schools may be deferred so
long as they remain in good
standing.
Standards may be raised or
lowered as necessity demands. 1t
is not mandatory for the local
boards to follow the criteria.

THE LETTER BOX :

Editor, The Sentinel:
Slightly more than a year ago.
the members of the County Council
ran for and were elected by a sub
stantial number of votes in Mont
gomery County. They took office
under suspicious circumstances.
Their predecessors, by fair, equit-
able, and judicious approaches to
the problems of the People of this
County, had built up good will and
faith in the Charter form of gov
eminent.
1t is almost a year since they
have received certificates of cleo
ton. The rumble of discord which
their tenure of office has brought
about continues to grow in volume.
A good many people who voted
them into office have complained
and are still complaining of the
discourteous treatment they have
received at the hands of the Coun-
Gil when they have appeared before
it individually or in groups. These
people believe they have been
brushed off and that high-handed
tactics have been employed in
solving or attempting to solve the
problems placed before the Coun-
ell.
It is time the Council under
stands that Americans have been
brought up to believe that elected
government is representative gov
eminent and that representative
government is interested, sympa-
thetic and understanding without
being paternal. The Council has
been and continues to be none of
these things.
Chapter and verse can be recited
on the discourtesies which have
been accorded the People of Mont
gomery County by the group they
elected to represent them. They
would begin with the controversy
over the Kensington-G Garrett Park
Dog Shelter and end with the dis
cord on the proposed cemetery on
Rockville Pike with several others
sandwiched in between.
The majority of sound-thinking
voters here do not quarrel with
the Councils decisions. The Coun-
Gil was elected on the assumption
that its members would decide and
vote as it sincerely believed to be
the best interests of the County.
Issue should be taken, however,
on the querulous complaints; the
stuffed shirt attitudes and the an
tagonisms which have highlighted
the meetings when citizens of this
County have insisted on doing bus
mess with their elected representa-
tives. The Councils impatience
with the people, even when it has
yielded under pressure, adds up to
nothing more than bad manners.
The Council has become thin
skinned and defensive whenever
questions or criticism have been
aimed in it's direction. Further
the running feud and the heel nip

pect our governing body to speak
its piece and listen to the pieces Of
others. We think a conscientious
Council and a well-informed citi-
zenry make for more progressive
government.
We believe the Council should
lend listening ear to an existing
breeze in the County that could
be whipped up into a tempest. We
believe it should make up its mind
that while in public Office, it's men,
bers will be targets for complaints
as have been public figures
through all of history. We make
one additional point-it is entirely
possible to have sporting blood ev-
en- under fire.

With the Naval Air Reserve
Task Force aboard the Carrier

(SpeciaD--More than 100 men,
bers of the Memphis Naval Air

Task force on two weeks of an
nual training duty.
