1--WE find that Mr.. James
views are broader than those of
CHE, stronger than the life ad-
justment policies of the Kicker
Maurer group" DR.. Brill said
Tuesday.
Mrs. Orleans and Mr.. James
have a sound grasp of the
blending of education services
and intelligent discipline that
good education requires, and a
sound concept of the financial
demands and responsibilities
that Montgomery County faces
in achieving educational excel
lence within the bounds of it's
financial resources.
Furthermore" added DR..
Brill, both candidates are their
own spokesman"
This comment apparently re-
ferred to a charge that Mrs.
Lucille Maurer of the Fifth Dis
trict is a "puppet" of retiring
school board member Mrs Rose
Kramer. Mrs. Jane L. Marks, a
former teacher, claimed last
week that during a coffee at

Maurer and Mrs. Kramer, the

There is desperate need"
said DR.. Brill, for those of us
who stand between the reckless
extremes to assert ourselves in
this election. We need workers
at the polls, volunteers to man
the telephones, and contribu-
tons to enable us to raise the
voice of reason between now
and the November Selection"

1t appears now that the egg

Charter amendment to in
crease pay of the Council mem
bers from $50 to $50 for each

Democrats: "In view of the
extensive time demands made
upon Council members in this
county, such as evening coming
hearings, we are disposed to
support this amendment"
Republicans: %The a m e n d.
ment furthers the trend away
from the original conception of
al unsalaried County Council
whose members would receive
nominal compensation the
alternative would be a fixed an
nual salary, commensurate with
the Councilmen's responsible
ties"
The Bethesda Chevy Chase
Chamber of Commerce, in op-
posing the proposal to allow the
County Council to make emer-
gency expenditures in excess of
$1,000 without competitive bid
ding, said it recommended
against the measure because
the amendment does not estab-
lish Sufficient safeguards" in
its definition of emergency. 1t
called for a clearer definition.
With respect to the Potomac
River compact, the Democratic
unit pointed to the fact that its
ratification was strongly urged
by the States Democratic Gov
ernor, ]. Willard Tawes, and
tidewater fishery authorities.
Republicans, citing the fact
that Maryland originally had
full jurisdiction over the river
while giving Virginia equal
fishing rights, recommended
disapproval without celebrating
further.
Both political factions and the
Bethesda-C Chevy Chase Cham
Der recommended approval of a
number of other referendum
questions affecting Montgom-
cry County, including the crea-
ton of an additional Circuit
Court judgeship for the county
in 1862.
The chamber unit, however,
opposed a constitutional amend
ment to the Declaration of
Rights authorizing the assess
ment of agricultural property
on the basis of such use and not
on the basis of subdivision
value.
While currently directed to
agricultural relief" the cham
Der commented, the amendment
appears to the Chamber Board
to open the field to discrimina-
tory taxation throughout the
State by the simple expedient
of promiscuous classification
of property"

the road were packed with sand

If American aid planners get
the backing they want from
Congress, the road will continue
beyond LON SAX, to link up
with the North-South highway
