1t was refreshing 10 see so much eagerness
and enthusiasm displayed on the part of young

Quite few of the defeated primary candi.

The President was to speak at pm. but at
$50 pm the televsion cameras were already in
place on the raised platform looking down the

Montgomery, the Presidents television advisor.
The affair was to start at pm with group

Death KneIl Has Sounded
For the Political Rally
On fhe Square,

The political campaigns just past should,
if nothing else, underline the fact that political
rallies in the good oldfashioned sense have come
to timely and unlamented end.
With the exception of the turn out for Harry
Truman in Baltimore, neither Democrats nor Re-
publcans can beat their chests record attend
at ballyhooed party gettogethers. This pc
cular lack of response can mean several things:
Voters are fed to the teeth with political
harrangues
Voters want no party snake dances TO guide
them IN the matter of vote-casting; or,
Television has relegated good, old polit
cal tradition to relatively minor role in the elec
ton of public servants.
And one more reason which will be dealt
with in just three seconds.
While it is sad, in a sense, to witness the
demise of a colorful, strictly American spectacle
lar" the fact is the political rally which rose to
its most colorful frenzy in the of the gaslight
has been in the process of rout for some years
1t can be hoped its passing is indicative of
growing awareness of citizens and increasing de-
termination to vote as the result of intellectual
reaction instead of from strictly emotional appeal
Kindly note the first four words of para
graph above: 1T can be hoped" Let those
who will-hOpe away. The truth is the bal
ance Of said paragraph is pure hog wasII-a
nOstrum behind which Poyannas and those
of similar ilk hide the true state of sad
disease which affcts the American people.
The further truth is: the vast majority of

Good News Tonight!

NNE of the best news developments Of
~ the week = and maybe for months =
Was disclosed this week in story appearing
elsewhere in The Sentinel that the two local
parties have raised more than $4,000 III
their Dollars" drives
AS has been pointed out on the national
level for some months, this may be the
answer to a lot of our political woes. Political
parties desperately need funds with when
to campaign. In the past they have gotten
them wnere they could. In many cases, OF
course, it meant getting them from the big
money boys who attacn plenty OF strings.
TINS mas happened and is happening -
in Montgomery County
Now the citizens are kicking in 81 each.
You can't expect too many pontical favors
for buck So you don't even ask for them.
AS result, the people elected to govern
ment jobs are more likely to run the govern
ment the way it should be run - not the
way it will benefit the big campaign spenders.
This is wonderful! It's the best thing
that's happened in years. Please politicians,
keep it up and next election work even harder
for those dollars.

THE election results, if nothing else, bore
out the prognosticators. Almost to a
man they predicted Democratic sweep. The
only real doubt in the minds of most of them
was whether Rep Dewitt S. Hyde and Judge
John r. Reeves would win. Many gave both
men slight edge" over their hard-driving
Democratic foes. But both were flattened by
the Democratic steamroller.
There are several things that seem quite
clear as a result of the balloting. One of the
most significant results was the defeat suf-
fered by veteran school board member
Wylie w. Barrow at the hands of Mrs. Helen
G. Scharf. Mr. Barrow at the outset of the
vigorous school board campaign said in
effect that it was high time for a showdown
between the conservatives and the liberals
and he then put himself in the former cate
CORY and told the voters to go ahead and
choose. They did. And he is out The
apparently clear-cut victory for the liberal
camp in the Scharf win and the success of
her running mates is somewhat clouded
however, by the apparent victory Of John E.
Oxley who was clearly aligned with the con-
servative group. 1t is quite clear that a ma
jority of the voters, in effect, signified their
approval of the present basic school board
policies and the new board should be guided
accordingly.
The same conclusion can be drawn with
logic by the Democrats on the County Coun-
Gil and those in the General Assembly The
results certainly appear to be a vote of con-
fidence in the work of both Democratic
dominated bodies during the past four years.
1t is the victory of John r. Foley over
Rep. Hyde and James II. Pugh's smashing
defeat of Incumbent Judge John r. Reeves
that are difficult to evaluate. Rep. Hyde has
done an outstanding job during his three
terms in Congress and there was nothing to
indicate that he had lost favor with the
voters. Mr.. Foley's supporters will argue, of
course, that it was Foley the man and his
capabilities - not an anti-Eisenhower feel
ing or any other reason that led to his
victory. We are not so sure, however, and we
would like to be among the first to COM
mend Mr.. Hyde for job well done on behalf
of his constituents as he steps down.
The upset of Mr. Pugh over Judge
Reeves could almost be called stunning The
incumbent judge has chalked up commend
able record during his two years on the bench
and with all due respect to Mr.. Pugh - an
outstanding attorney who will, we are sure,
make an outstanding judge - the defeat of
Reeves must be credited in substantial part
to the tendency of the voters to pull Demo-
cratic knobs on the voting machines. Judge
Reeves, too, should be commended for out
standing public service and we wish him well
as he resumes his private law practice.
Otherwise the results are not startling.
Sen Beall, no doubt because he is a past
master at the art of making nobody mad
and is exceedingly skillful at keeping his
political fences mended, was returned to Of
flee over his opponent, Baltmore's Mayor
D'Alesandro, who never had a chance in the
% counties and, hence, couldn't have won.

Volume OF both furniture
manufacturers and retail stores
dipped only about three per
cent from the all-time high
record set in 1856. when fur
niture sales exceeded 81 billion
for the first time.
Final figures are expected
TO show that the year is the
second best on record"
Business was buoyed by a
steady rise in population. and
l.500.0 900 marriages. Newly
weds are in the market for
home furnishings. And the
growth Of families usually re-
quires more furniture.
Factories operated through
most Of the year with reduced
backlogs. but achieved relative
~ stable operations by means
OF increased advertising and
promotional efforts" Mr.. Snow
reported.

previous year.
The Better Business Bureau
is continuing its local and ma
tional drives against misuse Of

ing. said Mr.. Mccarthy.
The bureau was vitality inter-

Downtown Park and Shop has
just issued its millionth free

adopted the program in its en-
tirety.
This was reported by Z. A.

the rapidly growing organiza-

Mr.. Pritchard also praised the

leadership Of L. B. Doggett. jr.,
and the support given by news

done by the 30-day account and
found increasing acceptance
among Washington store GUS
toners Of all ages during 1857.
said John X. Althaus. secretary
Of the Credit Bureau. Inc.
All major retail stores in this
area now employe some form OF
revolving credit to meet their
customers needs. ne declared
Attractive features OF re-
volying credit permit the Gus

dising and simplified operations
appear to be the only answer To
operation problems" he said.
Greater competition for the
sales dollar will keep retail
prices low and when combined
with increased operating costs
will produce smaller profits
from each sale.
Mr.. Burrus said his own COM
pany's outlay for 1887 expan-
sion set another new record and
that record sales were up
around 8 per cent from the pre-
viouS year. Still more records
are expected in 1858.
Food Trade Rises
Dollar types OF food outlets
in the Washington area will ex-
pand another 4i7 per cent In

Edgar Balshaw. Washington
division manager for Safeway
stores.
That estimate is based on
the assumption our population
will increase at its present rate,
the labor force and employment
will keep pace. that food sup
plies will be abundant and that
upgrading Of the diet will con-
tinue." said Mr.. Balshaw.
However. he said there may
be considerable variation in hg-
ures OF individual companies.
Area food volume for 1857 was
up around s per cent from 1856.
other sources have indicated.
Construction OF new stores
and Femodeling OF existing
stores is expected to continue
on a substantial scale in 1858.
he added.
Il expect 1858 will see fur
ther upward cost preSsures in
food retailing. We will be faced
with the necessity of increasing
our efficiency and affecting
every possible economy"
Hotel Sales Disappointing

disappointing for washington

clared Hudson S. Moses. presi-
dent of the Hotel Association
of Washington. He Is general
manager Of the Burlington

Bureau Busy
The Better Business Bureau
has had another very busy year
and the complaints II investi-
gates are caused by a meie
handful Of retailers. declared
Leland s. Mccarthy. managing
director.
Complaints about radio and
television sales and service
dropped TO GA from 698 in the
previous year. but remained
around the top Of the list. Yet
the offenders causing all OF
these complaints numbered only
a dozen or so. Mr.. Mccarthy
said.
Complaints about home i'm
provements declined to 306
from 1862. but the total is rising
again. Complaints in apparel
fell in $50 from 814. Here
again. the actual offenders rep
resented only tiny part Of the
people in this business, he de-
clared.
Complaints on household ap-
planes numbered about the
same as in 1856. but they
dropped to third in rank from

but they we're in fifth place
