The most talked-about man
In Montgomery County this
week is John Henry Hiser, the
retired Bethesda businessman
who handed a smashing, 49,
000-vote defeat to the matri-
arch of the Democratic Party
in Tuesdays County Coucil
election.
Mr.. Hiser, an energetic Re-
publican, who just couldn't
stand his two-year retirement
from business life, was consid-
cred by some political pundits
as the longshot of the ticket
until about 9 pm. Tuesday,
when those returns started pill
ing up.
Near the top of the ticket
was the name of j. Henry
.Hiser, whose 52,549 votes at
the end of the night made him
the Fourth District member of
the County Council in place of
Mrs. Stella B. Werner, the
Democrat who has held the Of
flee for the past IL years.
Her First Defeat
Mrs. Werner, also widely
known throughout the county
for her part in the successful
fight for a charter form of
government, always had been
regarded as the prime vote
getter of her party. She marked
up 40,899 votes last Tuesday,
suffering the first defeat in her
long political career.
And standing on the rub
BILE of the Democratic downfall
was the smiling Mr.. Hiser, who
according to his friends was
certain of Republican victory
all along.
THAT man, Hiser, just
exuded confidence throughout
the entire campaign" an ac-
quaintance confided yesterday.
Some of his running mates
were skeptical, but not Henry;
he kept predicting a Republi-
can landslide, right up until
the moment the returns started

which, according to one news
paper editorial, was "as far to

Hiser leaped at this document
and included it as part of his
speech in several prediction
meetings.
II assure you that I am much
further to the right than Louis
XIV-whoever he ISL" shouted
the candidate proudly.
In a conservative avalanche,
this viewpoint came on strong
Mr.. Hiser today is happily

which he fondly hopes will be
