The cease fire among Mont
gomery County's Democratic
factions ended yesterday, at
least for the duration of the
primary campaign.
Amid pleas for party solidar-
ity, local leaders of the three
primary election states gave
public airing to their diff
ferences.
The United Democrats for
Tawes will be asked to adopt
an election plank opposed to
any public accommodations law
not sanctioned by a Statewide
referendum, according to State
senatorial candidate Alger Y.
Barbee.
The Democrats for Progress,
a group supporting the Mahon-
ey-Lee ticket, came up with the
almost forgotten charge Of ESQ
lationism" against the County
Democrats, a faction running
on strictly local issues.
Blast Other Tickets
And the County Democrats
blasted the other tickets for
what they called the love me
love my dog" attitude of local
candidates running with the
assistance of Statewide per-
sonalities.
The differences were aired
before some 200 precinct work.
ers and candidates at a meet
ing called by the county's Gen.
trail Committee.
The audience was polite, and
gave every candidate on every
ticket a hand. But the leader

County Democrats End Cease Fire

of the factions left no doubt
that there were differences,
and that they were out to make
the most of it.
Mr.. Barbee, speaking for his
ticket, explained his action in
the House Of Delegates in OPP
posing the Inflated accommo-
dations lava law which would
have made it illegal for hotel
and restaurant proprietors to
refuse to serve Negroes.
He said he would ask his
ticket to indorse a plank stat
ing, "The right of a proprietor
to choose his own patrons is
basic, and should not be abol-
ished or overridden except by
referendum"
Sees Contradiction
William F. Hickey, a member
Of the County Council running
for the State Senate, said
there is an inherent contra
diction" for any political tick
ct to run without taking full
responsibility for State issues
and for candidates for State
office.
Without mentioning the
County Democrats by name,
Mr.. Hickey called this attitude
county isolationism." Mr..
Hickey, local leader of the
Mahoney Lee ticket, said
there was a recent illustration
Of this attitude in the failure
of the public accommodations
bill in the last General Assem-
bly,.
The bill was loaded with
amendments exempting many
'rural Maryland counties from

Planners Threaten Court Fiqht
Over 100000 Park Land Cut

Suburban Maryland plan
nerS yesterday threatened court
action if Congress fails to re-
store 100000 which the House
Appropriations Committee cut
from the Interior Department
budget.
The money was requested by
the Maryland-National Capital
Park and Planning Commits
sion under the Federal Capper-
Cramton program to buy
stream valley park land. Con-
gress in the past two years has
denied the money, which plan
ners would match with $1.2
million for park land pur-
chases in Montgomery County.
1--WE are extremely disap-
pointed at the committee &C
ton and consider it a shock
ing disregard of the solemn
contract which started the Cap
per-Cramton program in 1884,"
Jesse F. Nicholson, executive di-
rector of the commission said
yesterday.
Il have asked our general
counsel and bond counsel to
find what claim, if any, we
might have under the con-
tract" Mr.. Nicholson said.
In the mean time, he said
his commission will try to have
the 100000 restored when the
appropriation bill comes to the
House floor Tuesday. Failing
this, the Senate will be urged
to restore the funds.
The $1.8 million would pur-
chase 1877 acres in two units in
the Rock Greek Park, two units
in the Cabin John Park, and
one unit in the Northwest
Branch Park.
Mr.. Nicholson said $4,000
of the $18 million already has
been spent. This was done in
accordance with an amendment
to the basic agreement which
allowed the Commission to ad-
vance money to buy potential
park areas threatened by the
logging or sand and gravel in
dustry or by home builders.
IF we tried to purchase the
land now that we bought fol

$4,000, it would cost two or
three times as much" Mr..
Nicholson said.
Completion Of the Capper-
Cramton park land program in
Montgomery is now so per cent
finished, Mr.. Nicholson said.
The Capper-Cramton program
is substantially complete" in
Prince Georges, he said.

KEN " LAKE NOTES

Around on the north side of our house there's spot of ground that doesn't thaw during the day now and off on top of the Wrange1ls are snow clouds spurning off the peaks carly in tho dawn, evidence of screaming Wirds at those elevations, tail end of the storms from the Gulf that the lower country on the plateau here never feels.
 The aspen branches are just stark black; fingers against the night sky out- side the window, wood smoke from the barrel stove and popcorn in the evenings are homestead events now.
 young fellow by the name of Jadel Grimm has decided that this plateau holds part and maybe most of his future. He's settled across the road from the Helkem brothers about l9 mile on the Edgerton.
 And so it goes, by blocks and squares the pools of human endeavor gradually seep across this wide, wide land. Still there are endless vista Is of virgin ground, and endless realms of opportunity, not for all, or even a. majority maybo,. but they are here.
 Piers and abutments Of concrete are dpp5CI1uS OH OllG C{t1lyOH WALLS dI I1DGiCy Falls now and the big, red, graceful arches of ponderous steel lie stacked a short distance off for the new bridge.
 Long rows of new-endod wood are building at each homes tend these days and shopping lists are compared by the better halves before the fall trip for the winters grub supply takes place. Some local rigs leave the sharp-cut track of new snow tires in my lane when they come to visit and the mil truck deposits big square packages of winter clothes from the mail order sources along the road.
 VIo I've had some of the political hopefuls through the hustings lately, some thing I m not used to in the South 48; chance for the direct give and take around the kitchen table of the you we asked to vote for. I like that!
