2 Legislators Accuse
Browning Of Lobbying
To Kill Bill for Judge
By o SioH Correspondent OF The Ssue

by Sion correspondent OF The Stue
ANNAPOLIS. Feb. 2s.-Mont.
gomery County legislators today
accused Warren Browning. chair.
man Of Montgomery's Democratic
State Central Committee, Of lob.
bying against a bill to provide fol
an additional county Circuit
Court Judge.
State Senator Dewitt 8. Hyde
and Delegate ]. PAUL Marshall
attacked the Democratic leaders
activities as "reprehensible."
They said they learned the pur-
pose Of Mr.. Browning's frequent
visits to the General Assembly
from other sources yesterday
after he evaded answering Their
questions concerning the reason
for his presence here.
Browning Explains Stand.
Mr.. Browning today denied he
has been lobbying against the
bill. but said he Is opposed to the
provision which would allow the
Governor to appoint the third
judge.
II think 1t Is reprehehsible on
the part Of the Montgomery Coun-
ty delegation to attempt to foist
an appointed Judge on US with
out consulting their constituents. "
he declared. Appointed judges
are contrary to the State consti-
tuition and the democratic proc
eSs."
He said he Is not opposed to
the bill itself, but to the amend
ment the delegation has added
providing for the appointment
than election Of the new
judge.
"They have not publicized that
amendment In Montgomery Coun-
ty." Mr.. Browning said. II see
this as merely an attempt on
their part to grab some political
patronage in the judiciary"
Before Now in Senate Committee.
The measure, passed by the
House and now before the Sen
ate Judiciary Committee, calls for
a constitutional amendment to
permit three Circuit Court judges
for Montgomery County.
Under one Of the provisions, If
the proposal is approved in a
Statewide referendum next No
vember, the Governor would ap-
point a judge to serve until the
general election in November,
1854.
Since Gov. McKeldin is O
Republican. he normally would
appoint a member of that party
to the vacancy.
It is this provision that has
aroused Mr.. Browning's opposi-
tlon, according to Senator Hyde
and Mr.. Marshall.
Hit Failure to Consult.
They aimed particular criticism
at Mr.. Browning's failure to con-
suit with the Montgomery dele
cation.
after ALL" they said, I'VE were
elected by the people of Mont
gomery County to legislate for
them, and Mr.. Browning should
give us the courtesy Of making his
views known to us-the elected
representatives Of the people,"
The two legislators said the
bill had been requested by the
Montgomery Bar Association as
an emergency measure, because
the two present judges are over
burdened by a heavy docket and
are behind in their work.
They added the proposal also
had been Endorsed by the county
Civic Federation.
Mr.. Browning said, however
that neither the bar association
nor the civic federation has in.
