Public Hearings-One Lane
OF a TwO-Way Street

In columns, readers will find accounts of two
hearings held this week many aspects of the County
budget We have intention of commenting these
sons beyond observing that these hearings excellent
devices for ctZen-expreSSion.
As expected the hearing the Board of Education bud
gets brought forth vigorous expression of opinion To the
best of reporting fact uncovered and
dramatic solution advanced for providing expanding
school systems needs without nng the taxpayer with
increased property tax rate
Nevertheless the sincere citizens who spoke up in favor
of restoring the school budget cuts did two things:
l. They gave their elective officials the benefit of
grass root citizenthnkng which should be helpful those
officials in their ultimate decision In doing So they dis
charged their first duty of the good ctzenthat of taking
active interest in local affairs.
2 Without to the expensive couch of the pSy
chiarist they got it off their chests of the
nzed safety valves designed to smooth the nerreaed life
of the community and keep at the family dinner table
We think both of these accomplishments worthy.
When taken in conjunction with the occasional bright ideas
that out of these sessions think the case favor
of public hearings is made
We must confess that have another for favor
ing public hearings too 1t comes under our deepseaed
vction that in democracy must have two-way street
The people must have to the facts-a1l of the
acthat bear the conduct Of public business They then
have the obligation to study these facts and express their
informed convictions.
Given free and untrammeed access to public officials,
the public media will do the job Of fctua reporting Thanks
to the fact that newspapers in competition with
other the public has butn guarantee of the eageness of
the competing media to do the job
By way of summary let's have public meetings,
fewer closed meetings. public officials willing to give
the facts to the pubc representatives and fewer public
relations who often than not obstruc Select
the facts to reach the public.

| Editor,
Montgomery County Sentinel,
Dear Sir:
1t has always been my con-
viction that justice in our pres
ent system of law and courts can
be had only at a price; that
there is direct relation to the
amount of money one can spend
to the amount of justice one can
receive. Further, / would say that
equality before the law is de-
pendent upon the extent of a
persons wealth, especially in
civil cases and minor offenSes.
1t is said that a man is con-
sidered innocent until proven
guilty and that the burden of
proof is upon the accuser or
prosecutor. Yet in fact no amount
of money is spared by the state
in its effort to prove the guilt
of the accused. All the expensive
facilities of the modern police
system are available to the prose
cutor, but certainly not to the de-
PENDANT. Meanwhile, considered
innocent man" has his choice of
Jail or bail. And there's the rub!
If he is wealthy enough or has
sufficient property, bail is to be
had. But what of the poor man,
well he just sews in Jail wait
ing for his state-appointed law
yer to convince him to throw him.
self at the courts mercy.
Perhaps I'm being unfair or
stupid in my writing of this let
ter, or then again maybe I'm red
tinged because / am in effect at
lacking the status quo. But quite
frankly I'm plain old mad.
Having received a ticket for
failing to stop at Stop Sign, of
which | am innocent, having al
so a witness to prove SO, 1 at
tempted to take the matter to
law and receive justice. Now
bear in mind, that the circum-
stances of this case are unim-
portant and actually whether I
was guilty or not is of little
count. The point of the matter
is that l secured a lawyer at
my own expense of course; took
time off from my work costing
me money, for I'm a poor man;
had my witness take time off
from work Che is also a poor
mani. Together we all went to
court. After waiting in due re-
spect and silence, the case was
called. No policeman! He was
home. Case recessed until his ar
rival. After two hours of wait
ing we were then informed that
he couldn't come; he had to go
to work. The very honorable and
fair judge then decided that
we should all reappear the fol
lowing week. The case was thus
postponed, surely whether we,
myself and the witness, work was
unimportant.
The question of going through
in this search for justice was
quickly solved in my mind. Here
on one hand was an expense of
$50 or paying a little fine of
about $40. My principles wanted
me to go on, but my pocket book
said no. / resolved to submit to
what almost amounts to legal
blackmail. Moral of the story;
it's cheaper to pay.

The Letter Box

| Editor,
Montgomery County Sentinel
Dear Sir:
AS members of the Lay Com
mittee on Indignation, appointed
by the Montgomery County Board
of Education in August, 1854, who
constitute the majority opinion
of the majority report of that
Committee Submitted to the
Board on February 81, 1865, we
are interested in the entire Coun-
ty school system.
We regret the fact that the
Board of Education has never
seen fit to confer with the Lay
Committee but in effect has ig-
nored it. We must now in all
fairness urgently request that the
following questions be answered
by the School Board and the Sup
erintendent of Schools in order
that the citizens of Montgomery
County be informed of plans for
desegregation.
l. Has the Board of Education
received from the States Attor-
ney General any written formal
notification that Maryland law
establishing segregated schools
has been nullified by the Supreme
Court ruling?
2. If not, did DR.. Forbes H.
Norris, Superintendent of
Schools, have the authority to
start de-segregation of the
schools without being expressly
directed to do so by the Board
of Education?
3. What is the opinion of each
School Board member in regard
to the propriety of the Superin-
tendent's action in this matter?
4. Does the Superintendent
have authority to institute a de-
segregated program in all the
County schools?
5. The majority report of the
Lay Committee recommended
that the curriculum standards
should not be lowered in a de-
segregated system. We ask, "Will
the School Board require that
curriculum standards and ach-
ievement levels be maintained in
those schools which are to be
Immediately de-segregated?
6. Will teachers be hired on the
basis of an entrance examination
as well as by personal interview?
Z. Why has the School Board
ignored the recommendations for
gradual system of de-segrega-
ton on the elementary level as
presented in the majority report
of the Lay Committee?
Since the majority report ap-
parently has been ignored by the
School Board, we now believe
that the citizens of Montgomery
County should be allowed to eX1
press their will in regard to the
manner and timing of de-segrega-
ton through referendum before
any move is made to de-segregate
Negro and White students in
Montgomery County.
