Cornlnnunity's
Long History
Is Recalled
By Sheila Fleishell
Walker 1914

From its early days as the
little village crossroads of Me
chanicsville to the present cen
ter of rapidly developing area
Olney has been a community
in transition. 1t is easy to un
derstand why Olney is so at
tractive to new residentS-the
beauty of the surrounding coun
tryside and the peaceful rural
atmosphere which are becoming
rarer every day.
1t is quite in keeping to dis
cover that the name "Olney''
was chosen to honor an English
poet. Olney was called Mechan
icsville until 1851 when the gov
eminent decided to open a local
post office there. Residents
were faced with the task OF
choosing new name for their
community as there already ex
listed a Mechanicsville post Of
flee in st. Mary's County. DR.
Charles Farquhar lived in the
house which is now in use as the
rectory of st. Peters Church
He had named his home Little
Olney" in honor of William
Cowper, the famous English
poet, who had immortalized Oh
ney, England. DR.. Farquhar sug'
gested "Olney" as a suitable re-
placement for Mechanicsville
and his suggestion met with 10
cal approval.
One of our old-timers who
has seen many changes in this
area is our well-known Albert
Murpy. Albert was born over
what is now the post office in
Olney where his father had his
tin shop. Later he moved to his
present location in the north.
east corner of Olney where he
has lived for most of his SO
years. Albert still remembers
when the toll house stood in
front of his house, as Olney was
an intersection on the flint-stone
toll road from Brookeville 70
Washington.
Representative of our newer
arrivals is Wally Mann. A trans.
planted Texan, Wally is first
flutist with the National Sym.
phony Orchestra. Four years
ago he moved to Olney though
he commutes to Washington
and frequently travels abroad.
His wife, Lorraine, teaches piano
locally and their four children
attend our local schools.
Symptomatic of the changes
still in store for our area was
the recent meeting of the Up
per Rock Creek Civic Associa-
ton where the chief planner
for the Maryland-National CAPT.
tai Park and Planning Commits
sion unveiled the proposed mas
ter plan for this area. This plan
is of vital interest for area resi-
dents as it attempts to deter
mine just how future building
will change the character Of this
largely rural community. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Harold Lauth,
president of the Upper Rock
Creek Association, the plan is
generally acceptable to his
group, though changes are to
be expected when public hear.
ings are held by the Planning
Commission on December II.
The plan was discussed at the
October ~ meeting Of the vii
liamsburg Village COvic Asso-
citation. Printed copies of the
plan may be obtained at the
Park and Planning Commission
Building in Silver Spring for
those interested.

III NOICd.
In an interview with a group
of United States newspaper
men Gen. Chang gave two
reasons for believing a revolt
would come much quicker than
he had expected.
First, he said, there is q
rightist movement on the
mainland which has forced
Communist leader Mao TIE
tung to take action to suppress
it. The second reason is the
collapse Of the commune pro-
gram"
There have been increasing
reports that the commune sys-
tenn is in serious trouble. The
communes are semi-military
units of from 10000 to $4,000
men, women and children
whose lives and labor are con-
trolled by the state.
Apparently, Red China's at
tempt to break up the tradi-
tional family unit is going too
far too fast.
Gen. Chang did not stress
his own program of revolu-
tionary activities on the main
land, but he did say his un-
derground force is large, espe-
cially around the coast.
Restrained by Treaty
He said his troops were re-
strained from moving against
the Communists now by a treaty
with the United States.
Referring to President Eisen-
hower's trip to neutralist In
dia, the generalisSimo said 1t
would be good for Asian friend
ship and understanding. But,
he stated. it will have no effect
on the China problem.

clubs where wealthy patrons
do the cha-cha.
But up near the old citadel
the hutS remain, muezzins call
to prayer, and women meander
along mud streets wearing raj
ment of times past.
Turkey is too large and rural
a country to be defined by a
city, but Ankara does it better
than any other.
Here Mr.. Eisenhower will be
greeted by leaders he already
has met, President Celal Bayar,
Premier Adnan Menderes and
Foreign Minister Fatin Rushtu
Zorlu. Like virtually all Turks
in public life, these men have
thrown their support behind
Western and American policy.
Despite the undermining ef-
forts Of Ataturk and his sue
cessor, Turkey still is an under
developed. poor country. 1t is
deeply in debt and in continu-
ing want of American and al
lied aid.
Since coming to power in
1850 Mr.. Menderes has rushed
ahead with projects for dams,
roads, factories and city i'm
.provements. Critics say he has
tried to do too much too fast.
He faces strong opposition
which appears to thrive on at
tempts to silence it.
President Eisenhower, al
ready well aware of these prob
lens, will have little time to
discuss them here. His visit
may have importance, however,
for less tangible aspects of
Turkish American relations.
1t will be a visit Of heart, as
well as state.

control the Chinese Communist
government.
The success Of the uprising,
he said, will depend on three
factors: The degree Of insta-
bility caused by the reaction
to the Communist regime; the
success of the Nationalists in
Exploiting anti-Communist
feelings, and the world stu
alton as q whole. especially the
United States attitude.
Claims Better Morale
Gen. Chang said although
his forces are outnumbered 2.5
million to 100000, his troops
have better morale and better
combat spirit"
at may sound like boasting, "

he said, "but we are good
enough to take care Of Com
munists on a 81 ratio"
The question of how the
United States can help the Ma
tionalists militarily will be set
tied when the time comes for
the revolt. Gen. Chang said.
II the revolt does not occur
in the next two or three years,
he said, time will be on the
Communist side, as they can
consolidate their position and
correct mistakes Of their re-
gime."

Pope to See
Eisenhower
Despite Cold

VATICAN CITY. Dec. S (AP).
Pope John XIII was re-
ported in good health today
despite a cold which has per-
sisted for a week. The Vatican
went ahead with preparations
for President Eisenhower's his
toric audience tomorrow.
Although the 78-year-old
Pope postponed to January 6
a lengthy religious ceremony
scheduled today in the often
drafty Hall of Benedictions, he
kept his other appointments.
Reporters who saw him said
he was smiling and looked well.
The Pope's physician, DR..
Filippo Rocchi. said the Pontiff
was in good condition, with no
fever but a lingering hoarse-
ness.
The Vatican newspaper,
L'Osservatore Romano, saluted
President Eisenhower today in
q front-page editorial by the
papers director, Count Giu-
seppe Della Tore, which said :
To-day, when there is no
war but there is not peace, the
inspirations, desires and wishes
of the American people are the
