Citizens Building and Loan Association
is Largest and Oldest in Montgomery

zens Is one Of continuous
growth, which has necessitated
moving into larger quarters on
five different occasions, and the
opening of three branch offices.
Operations were first begun
in Rockville. In 1882 the Asso.
citation moved to 8400 Georgia
ave. in Silver Spring; in 1887,
to 8417 Georgia ave-; in 1947,
to 861 Pershing dr., and in No.
vember, 1854, to its new modern
office building at the corner of
Pershing and Fenton in Silver
Spring.
In order to give the upper.
County members more efficient
service, the association re-estah-
lished an office in Rockville in
1851. In 1856, after fire de-
stroyed the building, the asso.
citation celebrated opening of its
present modern office building
on South Perry st.
In January, 1857, anticipating
an accelerated population
growth in upper Montgomery
County, an agency was opened
in Damascus; then in January,
1859, an Independent branch
was established on Main st. In
October, 1859, the association
acquired assets and liabilities of

Citizens offers a savings plan
that is modern in every respect.
Members have never received
less than go per annum on
their savings, the present rate
being 40 per annum, COM

restriction on the amount of in
vestment; and funds are avail
able on demand.
Safety of investments is as

insurance of accounts up to

Citizens offers an up-to-date,
economical home financing plan
consisting of first mortgage
loans repayable in convenient,

the quantity of photos taken

The law under which Stur-

He scored doctors and health
officials for not

causes" behind the accidents.
The doctor urged the teen
ayers to set a good example
among themselves, to be pa
tient about acquiring the eX-
perience necessary to be a good
driver, and to cooperate with
police in traffic safety efforts.
The teen-ager is the best in

drivers with long records of
minor accidents.

ToIk of Socialism
As Nonsense
BY CHARLES ID. PIERCE
Star Stan Writer

Senator Morse of Oregon de-
clared yesterday that he will
never surrender to the medical
profession ION the great moral
issue" of providing a Federal
program to help finance medi-
cal care for the aged.
The Senator, who had Just
returned from campaigning in
Oregon, told the Golden Age
Club at the Jewish Community
Center that he had introduced
in the Senate a duplicate of
the Forand medical care bill.
This measure, which was in
troduced in the House by Rep
reSentative Forand, Democrat
of Rhode Island, would provide
medical care funds for the
aged under the social security
program. 1t has been opposed
by some segments of the medi-
cal profession as "socialistic. p"
Senator Morse declared that
talk that this bill will lead to
socialism is a lot of nonsense. ="
Cites Fear of Illness
Hanging over the house tops
of millions of homes" he said
'is the gnawing fear that a
serious illness will wipe out the
life savings of an elderly
person.
do you mean to tell me that
the economy is so weak that
we can't answer the moral obli-
cations we owe to these
people?"
Senator Morse added that an
attempt is being made now to
reach a compromise on the
Morse -Forand bilf on the
grounds that there won't be
time to get an adequate bill
through before Congress ad-
journs in July"
However, he declared, Wayne
Morse doesn't believe in COM
promising principles and Morse
isn't going to compromise on
the Morse-Forand bill"
He said that he will insist
the bill provide for three
things:
Hospital costs, including out
patient costs; doctor costs and
medicine bills.
