CandOr Is Needed From Public Officials

The people of Rockville and of Montgomery County
are entitled to no less than proper ranness in reports
of such serious business as polio
There little candor evident in the early stages of
the reporting OF the epidemic at the Chestnut Lodge SAM
tarm Evasve answers given reporters and to others
until State and Federal officials took hand
We do not hold with the theory that the way to avoid
things is to bury heads in the sand and ignore them
An outbreak of polio regretabe but certainly can have
odum attached to those unfortunate enough to suffer
this affliction.
Rather, the people of the County and the State have
given generously in the past evidence that they realize
the seriousness of the problem
On the other hand of the cardinal rules for pre-
vention of polio is to keep children away from localities
with large incidence of polio Unless the public officials
are willing to reveal that there polio of any magnitude
the parents cannot take proper precautions
Again. there apparently have been several investga
tons OF the stream flowing from the pond in the rear of
the sanitaum and for several years there have BEEN
mors that the water is polluted with sewage Health Of
fcias poohpoohed this idea as late as Tuesday morning
but Tuesday night investigation by DR.. " L. Elicot
county health officer revealed that sewage leaking into
the stream and from sewer line that served the santaum
as well as other homes in the area.
We have doubt that Town Manager John Mcdonald
will take prompt action to correct the situation but we feel
someone has been remiss in the past We are not willing
to point an accusing finger at any individual since
do not have all the facts but the known facts speak
for themselves
City officials sit back and point that health
problems within the jurisdiction of the county health
officials the County Council bithey say that it sees
no error in the regulations that in order for polio sta
tlstcs; the health officer can evade questions.
All of these things can happen, and yet polio still
stands poised to attack Prompt action post these streams
polluted should be TAKEN whether creates fears in the
minds of the nearby residents 1t better to know
the enemy is approaching than to be caught unawares
County and city officials will be expected by the people
to take such precautions necessary and to make the
facts in similar cases.
The polio outbreak at Chestnut Lodge had very little
chance of remaining secret very long would have leaked
out within short time How much better to face the facts
and tell the people the truth about the situation.
Candor often has far less repercusson than evasion

Mrs. Thomas Bailey of Laytonsville
kept watchful eye on the con-
struction of the new food counters,
which she had wisely entrusted to
Mr.. Bailey. Earl and George Lech-
lider of Laytonsville supervised
work on the new swine and sheep
barn providing some stiff competi-
ton for Foreman Lawson King.
Mr.. King, who wore the only visible
Scotch plaid cap at the Fair
grounds, was on his toes all day
long juggling the construction of
three buildings simultaneously.
Paul Mills, chairman of the
Fairs Logging Committee, had
special interest in the days activi
ties, because in a way he started it
all. Mr.. Mills and a very able
crew of volunteers put in many an
hour with chain saw, tractor, hoist
and trucks to bring the lumber for
all the buildings out of the woods
and onto the Fairgrounds where a
sawmill plugged away at the hun
dreds of logs all spring. Assistant
County Agent Roscoe Whip re-
calls one particularly active d y
when the Logging Committee as
sembled five tractors to haul logs
from the woods, a tractor and
winch to help load and eight trucks
to haul to the Fairgrounds. That
day 25 loads of logs moved from
the woods to the mill.
Many thanks are due to Contee
Sand and Gravel Company and to
the builders of Connecticut Avenue
Park, Brisker and Campitelli, for
their generous contributions of
lumber on the stump. Ironically
enough, it was the, ceaseless adj
vance of suburban Washington
upon the farmland of Montgomery
County that made possible such
successful "Big Day.. New subur-
ban homes now stand where once

come part of the Agriculture Cen

votes written in.
Actually, the real excitement in
the election was the vote on two
amendments to the town charter.
The first, which repeats a pro-
vision granting 5 percent reduc-
ton in taxes paid within 30 days
after presentation of the bill, was
carried 81 to %.
The second, which would have
changed the town voting laws to
permit persons resident in the town
but not property holders to vote in
the town elections, had a majority
vote, but not enough to pass. Three
quarters majority is required for
passage. The vote was 48 to 35.
The election was held in the
Assembly Hall at a regular old
fashioned town meeting. The
mayor called the meeting to order
at Z pm. so balloting could start
in compliance with the charter but
the polls remained open until all
who wanted to vote had arrived
and cast their ballot.

" Mr.. Chase was nominated by
officers of the Maplewood Citizens
Association for his work in help
ing to impress children and driv-
ers with the need for caution in
neighborhoods such as the 'unside-
walked streets of Maplewood. At
his own expense, Mr.. Chase de-
signed and fabricated caution
signs and personally and through
representatives of the Citizens AS
ISOLATION discussed with the chill
dren of the area the reason for the
signs, and impressed upon them
their part in the neighborhood
safety program.
"Mr. Armstrong was nominated
by Norman F. Johnson, president
of the West Kensington Civic As
ISOLATION for his outstanding work
in establishing one of the most eff
tectively organized and trained
Civil Defense Units in the county.
He spearheaded expansion of this
organization in West Kensington

Mr.. Green's Retirement

1t is with deep regret that we learn that Richard F.
Green has decided retire from the Maryland National
Capital Park and Planning Commission
Mr. Dick has been answering in his efforts to pro-
mote the parands due largely to his interest and
efforts that the planning commissions recreation program
developed into worthwhile function.
Just about as long recall the planning COM
mission he has been taking prominent and active part
and long remember he has been beloved by the
children and the folk who took part.
We fear that Mr.. Dick will be missed from the park
program but would not deny him the weearned leisure
that he is planning for his sunset years
Certainly he takes with him a feeling that he has
done good job and that his efforts will result in pleasure
to myriads of children and adults in the years We
think that is a worthwhile feeling.

There are approximately 200
persons, in lu d ing staff and

Billiard said. These include ap-
proximately 40 student nurses who
came there for training from other
sections, he said.
Swimming in the pond in the
rear of the sanitarium has been
restricted. The pond empties into
the polluted stream.
DR.. Ellicott said all streams are
considered polluted and that there
is no necessity for posting the
stream.
Children from the area have
been playing in the polluted water.
City Manager John Mcdonald
said he did not believe the seepage
is in the sewage system but that
the seepage probably comes from
pumps in that area.
DR.. Billiard said the staff is
keeping close watch on any sick
ness developing in either patients
or staff members and that Federal
and State health officials had been
contacted, who gave directions on
procedures.
Meanwhile, DIR. Ellicott said
parents should not permit children
to overexert themselves and should
avoid areas where there is an in
cidence of polio.
