The Congressman referred to
a. recent speech by Mr.. Ken

General asked that youth be
given more opportunities to de-

Mr.. Rivers said this merely

Using heavy sarcasm, Mr..
Rivers said the Attorney Gen

about better police protection
and sitter punishment.

County 6. O. P. Chooses Four to Run
BY WILLIAM DUKE
Star staff Writer

Montgomery Republicans
picked four new House of Dele
gates nominees last night, and
had more than TOO people over
to watch.
Some 102 delegates picked
the four from a roster of IL
contenders as State and local
leaders held the county nomi-
mating convention as a sign
of the rebirth of a strong Re
publican Party in Maryland.
The winners were Miss
Louise Gore of Potomac, Henry
j. Moves, a Rockville lawyer:
John S. McInerney and Henry
F. Lerch, both of Bethesda.
They viii take their place
on the ballot with six other
House nominees selected in the
May primary. The extra seats
were created by recent reap
portionment legislation.
But the convention, rather
than the nominees, was the
featured attraction at Richard
Montgomery High School,
Rockville, last night. 1t gave
local Republicans, outnumbered
2 to l in a Democratic county,
their first long look at their
candidates, a chance for a
little politicking, and an oppor-
tunity to hear some of the
words they like to hear.
State G. o. P. candidates
were greeted with convention
pomp and heavy applause,
moving even veteran party
leader Walter Dawson to say
wistfully, This feels the same
as 1916. when we took all
county offices but two"
Judging from their speeches
and literature, the new nomi-
nees represent a wide range Of
Republican philosophy.
Miss Gore, who led the bal
loting with IS votes, stressed
her party work for the Eisen-

executive with the National
Federation of Republican Wo-
mems Clubs and president of

Three Sisters
Spon, Road

The Interior Department is
blocking construction of the
Three Sisters Islands Bridge
and a freeway through Spout
Run Park.
Conrad L. Wirth, director of
the National Park Service, said
the department has withdrawn
approval granted previously
for the two projects.
Interior is able to do this be-
cause it has control over Spout
Run Park and the land on both
sides of the Potomac river at
the Three Sisters Islands.
Under the 1856 Highway Act.
interstate funds cannot be used
for construction on park land
unless a permit is granted. In
the case of the Federal Govern
ment, there is no recourse to
court action.
Mr.. Wirth said the depart
ment's switch on approval was
read into the record at a hear
ing Monday before a House
subcommittee headed by Rep
resentative Whitener, Democrat
of North Carolina.
A letter stating the change in
position was read by Mr.. Wirth.
1t was signed by John Carver,
Assistant Secretary of Interior,
who was acting in Secretary
Udall'S place while he was out
of town, Mr.. Wirth said.
The Carver letter expressed
the departments stand that
the destruction of park values
was not worth the highway
improvement. and that the
bridge had not been justified
by traffic forecasts. he said.
The Whitener subcommittee
is considering legislation tc
eliminate possibility of future
