at stake. He is equally if not
more capable of putting the Con
gress on the spot than the re.
verse.
That that ole debil, money, can
never be ignored is dramatically
shown throughout the account
with such tales as raising non
existent fee of $25,721 in small
bills in a shopping bag two hours
before a network radio deadline;
the case of the President and the
train party threatened with a long
walk back to Washington from
the midwest when the railroads
needed some more of the green
stuff; and the handshake of a
President with a friendly arm
over the shoulder of a printer
which innocently produced mil
lions more copies of an important
campaign piece - gratis.
Nominally, the publicity direc-
tor of the Democratic National
Committee, Redding had his
finger in many pots and is quail
fled to tell this story, which also
includes anecdotes of a major
speaker taking what seemed to
be a politically expedient runout
powder on an important function,
the organization of the foreign
language groups, the successful
application of a Republican soap
opera idea, and the egg-walking
approach to the Palestine prob
lem.
The story drags only briefly at
those times when the author takes
occasion to editorialize on pres.
events and how they
might be handled or perhaps
chuckles more than necessary at
some of the accomplishments.
This is good, practical report
from a professional politician,
who operated in the big time. In
1t, some Republican strategists
looking for gimmicks might find
the answer to an old and peren-
NAL prayer of the politician:
Would that mine enemy would
write a book"

Book Review
Potomac Man
Writes Book
On Politics
By Don Burke

"a Primer for Politicians"
Democrats and Republicans
.alike-might well be another
title for Jack Redding's fas-
cinating book, Inside the
Democratic Party" published
by Bobbs Merrill.
Essentially an inside report OF
the Vaccinations of the Demo,
cratic National Committee during
President Truman's successful
1913 campaign, written in read
able, photographed style, the
book reflects the passionate drive
of the author as an important cog
in the political machinery which
makes the two-party system in
America the intriguing thing that
it is.
The layman will find in the
Potomac residents book some re-
vealing and eyebrow raising ac-
counts of how a professional poll
tlcian must operate at times,
either to take advantage of set
of circumstances or in some we'll
thought-out strategy. Perhaps
foremost to the layman will be
the destruction of the myth that
the voters elected an underdog
out of sympathy. On the con-
trary, a very convincing case is
made for the fact that effective
organization, from the President
on down to the block worker,
elected Harry Truman while the
opposition stood idly by with a
good old-fashioned case of over
confidence.
Overriding the whole account,
but not necessarily stressed, is
the sometimes subtle and some
times sledge hammer manner in
which the tremendous power of
the office of President of the
United States was brought to bear
in the campaign. Conversely
demonstrated is the fact that a
President with a hostile opposi.
ton Congress is not necessarily
gone goose when an election is

Alaskan Visit Told
By County Student

The thing about Alaska is
mosquitoes.
Great big buzzers as long as
the last joint on your little
finger.
AT least, that was one of the
most lasting impressions brought
back from Alaska by David KeI-
sey, of Fields Road, Gathers
burg.
Other impressions: I'M
skilled labOring jobs are hard
to find and lot of native
Alaskans aren't wild with
joy over the prospect of be-
coming Americans.
Kelsey, 20-year-old son of Mrs.
Charlotte R. Kelsey, drove to
Alaska with two buddies last
June. All three young men at
tend st. Johns College at Anna
polls. They wanted to combine
their sightseeing vacation with
odd jobs to support themselves.
Kelsey took $50 but it was
spent before he got to Alaska.
The trio's 1916 car broke down
once on the way but Kelsey was
able to repair it.
They weren't too worried
when they got to Alaska for sure
ly they would find work some
where. But it wasn't that easy.
Many of the mining opera
tons up there are closing down

Mrs. Jeanne w a C h t e r
Parker, active Montgomery
County Republican Party
worker and precinct leader,
this week switched her affilia.
ton to the Democratic Party.
She was chairman of the 34th
precinct in the 18th election dis
trict from 1854 until month ago
when, she says, she was
bumped"
Told by telephone that she was
being replaced, Mrs. Parker main
tanned that she has been offered
nothing in party work since. She
lives at 950S Warren Street, Sill
yer Spring.
Apparently the victim of
switch in control of the State Cen
trail Committee Omitted faction), ,
Mrs. Parker worked for the
Regulars She served as seepe-
tary of the Regular headquarters
office in Bethesda on full-time
salaried basis for two months
prior to the primary.
Il like the Democratic system
of electing precinct officials"
Mrs. Parker remarked in explain
ing her action. when you get
the treatment, with capital T,
it's time to make a change" She
further said she cannot work
under the present leadership.
There's no use being a hypocrite
when | can't support the majority
of the candidates I'm glad
there's a two-party system" she
said.
Mrs. Parker, resident of the
county for 10 years, became pre-.
cinct chairman following the
death of her husband, John
Walker, who held that post. She
was president of the Young COP
Club of the county in 1852 and
was in charge of COP campaign
headquarters in Silver Spring in
1854.
The mother of seven children,
she has been active in the Fed.
Grafton of COP Women and the
Silver Spring COP Women's Club.
Several precinct chairmen have
been changed by the sec but the
changes have not been announced
by party officials.

ed to survive" recalled KEEL
sey at his Gaithersburg home.
"At first we lived in a lean.to
we built and then we moved into
deserted cabin" he said.
Kelsey and his pals worked for
the motel three weeks. Once they
climbed mountain, Mt. Fair
play. This mile-high peak is on
the Taylor Highway, and its
name bellies what it held in store
for them.
First of all, on the way up,
the men made bet about which
one could kill the most mosqui-
toes at one swat. Kelsey won.
He squashed nine against his
trouser leg with one whack.
But they reached the top.
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1958-08-14

Looking down, they decided that
they would descend the other
side of the mountain and walk
around it to their car.
They got back, two days later.
What we didn't know was
that there was another smaller
mountain in our way and several
deep ravines. Fortunately we
carried packs with food" Kelsey
remembered.
Finding no work to support
them, the three split up. Kelsey
flew home after securing a loan
from his family.

the trio finally found work as
general handymen around a kind
of motel 200 miles south of Fair
banks on the Alcan Highway.
