A final warning on the involved
political picture came from Dele.

Democratic primary" said this
Montgomery County Democratic
leader.
A completely non-partisan, non
political statement is found in the
comments of the League of
Women Voters president, Mrs.
Elizabeth Rohr.
"The League has worked many
years for Council appointment of
Planning Commission members
in the belief that they would thus
be made more responsive and
more directly responsible to Mont
gomery County citizens"
Those same citizens will now
watch with real interest the kind
Of job the new Commission does

that it could serve areas on both
sides.
General Lane insisted that mo
body seems to be building" the
District extension of the Memo
rial Parkway "as far as / can
find out" This was refuted by
Mr.. Jackson Price, Assistant Di-
rector of National Capital Parks.
While money for construction
has not been listed in the "M's-
sion &c" parks program, it will
definitely be requested. John No
land, of the Planning Commission,
had noted that no further land
acquisition would be necessary
for construction.
Mr.. Price added that he didn't
know why General Lane could
not find out about that"
Col. Robert B. Curtis, another
witness from Palisades, suggest
ed that perhaps Congress ought
to take action to force the vari-
Gus D. c. agencies to "work to-
gether to SOLVE this problem"
Another witness was Mrs.
Louise Hollander, Palisades
housewife. Families displaced by
construction of Route 240 through
the community would be forced
to move out of the District, she
declared. No other area within
the District remains where these
people could pursue the kind of
life they want, and find in Pail
sades.
Mrs. Hollander was most con-
cerned about the effect on the
present grade school, which she
thought might end up having to
close. The highway would dis
place much of the school popu-
lation, and there are no residen-
tial areas nearby from which it
could be replaced. Yet the remain
ing children might be too few
to enable the Board of Educa-
ton to continue the school.
Mrs. Hollander was another of
the witnesses who advocated Con-
gresslonal action to ensure that
District agencies, including the
Board of Education, would work
together in planning.
George M. Carpenter, Vice Pres
ident of Frank S. Phillips real es-
tate firm, and a resident of the
area, also spoke of the enforced
flight to the suburbs. In addition
to the loss of income tax from
such people, he estimated the real
estate tax loss at 2 million dol
lars.

BY Monday, the defenders of
the appointments became active,
'eading off with a counter-state-
ment from Ward w. Caddington,
chairman of the County's Demo
cratic State Central Committee.
Pulling no punches, Mr.. Cad

charges "unjustified and foolish"
and his association, "a very small

Democratic Party factions were
brought into the picture by Mr..

Along with Philip Thorsen, who
has been an elected Democratic

He went on to attack Mrs. Wer-

been released by the Republican
State Central Committee but Mr..
Gingery and Mr.. Scull had come
to their own defense by calling
their opponents "McCarthyites"
