County Government

The challenges facing the new County Council are
many And apparently will be their lot to determine the
future shape of Montgomery County In their hands lies
the responsibility Of deciding where and how the county
will grow-a heavy task.
Pressure is great from the White House down to
develop system of population corridors, extending out
ward from the District like spokes wheel, that
implanted undesirable suburban sprawl be prevented
The National Capital Transportation Agency is pushing
such plan. The nearby Maryland planners have drawn
comprehensive general plan for the contys growth until
the year 1000. Both Of these plans must be acted by
the county government in the next year or two.
For the first time in Is years there serious talk
about changing the form of county government Recent
studies have urged abolition Of certain government offices
and agencies well creation of ones There is
strong trend toward some form of metropolitan govern

Why No Junior ViIIoqe Here?

Montgomery County, happily, does not have Junior
Village nor do we want Yet the price of not having
one is eternal vigilance and county residents should be re-
minded of what's involved.
The tragic conditions in the Districts Junior Village
where 700 abandoned and needy children are housed in
quarters built for maximum of 400 have been well told
by the Washington newspapers is to be hoped the
stories VIII arouse the District community do something
about the deplorable situation
Meanwhile, the reason not faced with the prob
lem here IS not as might suppose because wealthy
suburba takes care of its The Montgomery County
Welfare Board has almost 600 such children that it cares
for with patience and great skill
County welfare workers able to do this with foster
noes obviang the need for such an institution More
homes are always needed but to the great good fortune of
all county residents enough county parents are willing to
open up their homes to less fortunate children to keep the
program going Prices paid by the Welfare Board for care
and clothing OF children of broken homes ranges from
$3.50 plus clothing and doctor and dentist bills to SIS
month per child depending the age and special needs of
the CHILD. ms is hardly muificent sum and MANY
parents provide such result of their humanitarian
instincts.

From This Angle
The Split School System In Canada

Considerable discussion has taken place
in Montgomery County regarding the admin
istration and financing of our schools. If the
people Of Montgomery County believe that
We have problems, they should consider the
school systems of Canada
The British North American Act qs6O
provides Canada with written constitution
Canada also has an unwritten constitution
like that of Great Britain which is based on
court decisions. Canada's written constitution
provides that each Province shall make the
laws regarding education with the exception
that nothing in any such. Law shall preiudi-
cially affect any right or privilege with respect
to UNCONVENTIONAL schools. /" Should any
provincial laws interfere with the rights
enjoyed by any religious denomination for its
schools at the time of its union the following
provision is made" then and in every such
case, and as far only as the circumstances of
each case require the Parliament of Canada
may make remedial laws. -. >"
Some provinces Of Canada have only one
school system, some have two, and one now
has five school systems. In Newfoundland's
five school systems a Deputy Minister is
assisted by five superintendent, each repre-.

Peace On Earfh'

The phrase Peace On Earth" which has been handed
down to the centuries and which hear repeated
many times during this joyful season. is sl-beaut-
full but stll-empty one.
Peace which should be the main goal of mankind,
that we have the power to destroy ourselves pretty
far down list of priores below personal advance
ment, personal pleasure and the like.
No one seems to know the solution to this almportant
and, at times terrifying problem. Nor able to
pierce these dark shadows, either But do have
suggestion which seems timely that the celebration
of the birth of Christ upon and the phrase peace On
Earth" is heard so often.
Let's communicate with national leaders to show
them that we deeply concerned the issue of peace
We dare majority of letters received by congressman
and the President say in effect Tets build up military
might Mankind has been doing this since the beginning
OF time and peace is closer than has been for
centuries In fact all remember too well how only
few weeks the world trebled the Cuba affair."
Let few more OF us write the President and Congress-
men and ask them to work little harder for peace To
conclude that the nation doing all in its power for peace
is superficial judgment Our budget and peace
effort are only tiny fraction of military budget and
