The Fairfax County appeals

The board took action on the
application yesterday, noting
that there would be too little

The Montgomery County
Council is being urged by two
groups Of local Democrats to
drop Donald E. Gingery from
the county planning board
when his term expires June IA.
In letters to the council, the
Western Suburban Democratic
Club and the Wheaton-Ke
sington Democratic Club have
backed Warren Jay Vinton,
mayor of Somerset. for the post.
Faced with the choice, the
council yesterday asked the
Democratic county committee
to rule on the political accep-
liability" of Mr.. GingeIy, Mr..
Vinton and three other persons
suggested for the job.
Others suggested for appoint
ment to the $500 position are
Dickran Y. Hovsepian, former
Mayor of Rockville; John M.
Rausch. former member of the
Rockville City Council. and
John J. Allen, jr.. a Bethesda
surveyor.
Endorsement by the two
Democratic clubs does not
mean that Mr.. Vinton neces-
sarily will be approved for the
appointment by the Democratic
county committee.
Fight Possible
The seven-member commit
tee repeatedly includes three
persons usually grouped with
the two clubs, three from an
other party faction and one
Swing" member. Thus. a hot
committee fight could develop
over the appointment. The
selection is expected to split
the county council.
In its last ruling on the "po-
litical acceptability" of pro-
posed appointees, the county
committee indorsed all the
candidates as acceptable but
listed them in order of prefer
ence.

down promptly when they
moved to change the method of
selecting State convention dele
gates and to abolish the unit
rule" which gives small coun-
ties a disproportionate voice in
primary elections.
The only other major devia-
ton from the script was a COM
plant by three delegations
that their areas got short shrift
when the national convention
seats were handed out. This
protest also met with little
sympathy.
In the selection Of 48 ma
tional convention delegates and
% alternateS, Montgomery
garnered five seats and one
alternate, and Prince Georges
got three seats and one alter
nate.
Remote Control
Gov. Tawes was resting in
Maine in preparation for a
minor operation next week, but
he guided the convention by
remote control. BY tape re-
cording, the voice of the chief
said he was sorry more good
Democrats couldn't go to Los
Angeles, and he appealed for
patience and reaSonable.leSS
in the delegate selection. He
also put in a plug for the reSO-
lutions committee which pro-
vided on-the-spot guidance un-
der the direction of George
Della, State Senate president.
The move to ditch the unit
rule in primaries and party
affairs was promoted by the
Committee for Fair Represen-
tation, which has its greatest
strength in Montgomery and
Baltimore Counties. This is the
group which organized recently
to press for reapportionment
of the General Assembly.

committee had hoped for sup
port also from Baltimofe City
and Anne Arundel County.
Royce Hanson, executive
vice president of the committee
and a resident of Montgomery,
said the same resolution will
be presented to the Republican
convention.
Protests against the selection
of national convention dele
gates came from the I'd district
of Baltimore City, Anne Arun-
del County and Queen Anne's
County.
Anthony DiDomenico, former
State Senator from the I'd dis
trict, said his area was left
