location of a new high school
between Liberty and New Mar
ket.
The commissioners held up
appropriations for the school,
suggested a new site after COM
munity protests mounted, then
reversed themselves this week
and approved the school board
site selection.
Reaction Is Mixed
In some quarters they were
applauded and in others, con-
demned, for their Intervention,
but observers agree that the
three commissioners, all seeking
reelection. will feel the after
math Of the fight in the pri-
mary.
Ironically. the dispute arose
after three years Of what sup.
porters Of better schools praise
as ian almost perfect record
of providing money for schools. Z"
The county, In the middle Of
the biggest school construction
program in its history, may
spend as much as So million
dollars for schools this year.
Incumbent commissioners are
Delbert 8. Null, Mehrl H. Rams
burg and A. Irwin Rem. Their
primary opponents are Walter
j. Hahn. John d. Leatherman
and Bruce e. Crum.
Thirteen Democrat candi-
dates have filed for the six
nominations for House of Dele
gate seats, including three in
cumbents. At least two replace
ments are predicted in the de-
mocratic lineup.
COncede One Seat
Already, Democrats are con-
ceding one House seat to the
Republicans. Russell H. Nc
Cain. former chairman of the
Maryland Roads Commission
and now an assistant to Gov.
McKeldin, has filed for the
House. He has been a powerful
vote-getter in the area for
many years.
Two of the three Republican
House members. Joseph b
Payne and S. Fenton Harris,
are seeking denomination.
The contest for six posts on
the Democratic State Central
Committee finds IA candidates
in a scramble. Behind the
scenes, opponents of the pres
ent leadership are charging
that an organization slate will
form quietly before the pri-
mary. Four incumbents are
running again. Mr.. Nikirk and
Mr.. Leatherman, members for
four years. did not file this
year.

paying bills for their feed.
When they were butchered
they provided about 400 pounds

On the commuter you meet
Harold l.. Sangster, an engineer

Potomac Electric Power Co.,

Snow Birds Steal the Seats
On such a trip you also learn
about SNOW birds" This is a
term the regular and more long
distance commuters have for
the "suburbaniteS' who never

Among others we found j. B..

kIlOckoOWu primary DdJLle. Inc
Republicans have yet to fill q
whole ticket.
AS the primary approaches,
this picture shapes up:
On the local front, a wide
open fight is under way for the
county commissionerships and
for control Of the Democratic
Party machinery. Veteran Of
fice-holders are being chal-
lenged by fellow Democrats.
Cool On D'AlesandrO
On the congressional front,
a semblance Of unity appears
as leaders push the candidacy
of Edward F. Storm. Frederick
attorney. who is pitted against
three Montgomery County as
pirants for the. right to oppose
Representative Hyde. Republic

On the State scene, the party
leaders are backing the candi-
dacy Of Controller j. Willard
Tawes, leader Of the State
harmony" ticket, but playing
cool to the harmony tickets
candidate for the Senate,
Mayor Thomas D'Alesandro Of
Baltimore.
In a county where person.
alities outweigh party lines and
issues, anything can happen.
Edward F. Nikirk, chairman
OF the county's Central Com
mittee, comedies that the party
organization is not so strong
as it was in previous years.
Hands-On Policy
On the other hand, there's
no organized anti-organiza-
ton" movement. Everybody
who wanted to run fled" but
no states are forming and the
central committee is keeping
hands of the primary. says Mr..
Nikirk.
The party leader finds him
self in curious campaign. He
filed for the nomination for
States Attorney. So did a fellow
Democrat. Thomas S. Glass.
Then Mr.. Glass Withdrew and
announced he would run as an
independent in the General
Election, so that the voters
would have a choice in Novem-
Der. His move came after the
Republicans revealed they
would enter no candidate for
the prosecutors post, and in
dicated they would support Mr..
Glass.
The present States attorney.
Samuel w. Barrick, is unop-
posed for the State Senate
nomination. On the Republican
side, no candidate has appeared
to run for the seat, now held by
Jacob Ramsburg, Republican,
who has announced he will not
seek reelection.

waged a strong primary fight
against Mr.. Wachter four years

One thing seems certain.
Should the BRO ever decide it

that will be heard from Harpers

These commuters make it
clear they do not want to have

The B6SO operates two COM

Washington and Brunswick -
two up in the morning, two
down in the evening. One of
the runs each way is a light

In addition, there is the

This was his march across
the Andes Mountains.
Bolivar, according to his
biographers, did the work of
a dozen men. He pleaded, ca
joled, pushed, pulled, and
sang his ragged army of
plainsmen over this almost inn
passable route.
n took them almost three
months Of . cost Of hundreds
Of lives and loss Of all the ex-
psdition's mules and horses,
but 5000 reached the other
side.
The element of surprise was
in their favor. The campaign
ended with the battle of Boy
AGA in which 5000 Spanish
troops were decisively whipped
and 1900 prisoners were TAX
en-. This assured the fall Of
Bogota and with it the indie
pendence of Colombia.
The struggle continued for
several years, but this was
the turning point. In June,
1921, Venezuela was freed,
then Ecuador. The climax
came with the battle Of Aya-
cucho in Peru in December
1924 in which IA generals sur
rendered and their armies
shipped out.
Soon after this, South Amer.
lea was on her own and Boil
