With 200 years of rule and never more

The Public Forum

grew on "the cradle to the
grave" protection theory. This
country became great because
of competition and liberty for
each individual to go forward
and to acquire as much as he
is willing to work for.
You admit that the Doctor
leans more than slightly to the
Left. In other words, he ap-
proves of the so-called Left
wing" philosophy, which to
give it good name means go
cialism". He has never to my
knowledge demonstrated his
ability or wish to follow our
way of life, although he has
benefited much by the oppor-
tunities that this country has
given him. Many of us admire
the fact that his brother was
too strong-minded to accept
some of the Doctors theories.
We do not want any more
Leftwing representatives in
Congress.
We are most grieved to
know that Senator Butler will
not run for reelection. We feel
that he has during his term
of office represented his con.
stituents more conscientiously
and Loyalty than any Senator
we have had from Maryland
for many years. To my mind,
and to many other people in
Maryland, Senator Butler has
been the ablest and the best
Senator Maryland has had for
a long time.
My experience with the Sem
ator mas been that he has al
ways wanted to find the wishes
of his constituents and follow
them rather than his personal
ideas in controversial ques-
tons. He will be seriously
missed by thousands of his
constituents when he leaves,
and 1 am sure many will real.
ize that we have lost the most
capable Senator that Maryland
has had for the last twenty
years.

Senator Butler, though l do
not intend to discredit the Doc
tors ability in his particular
line at all. l think in his pres
ent position, he is more at
home, and more valuable, than
he possibly would be in many
other places - certainly more
than he would be in the Sen.
ate of the United States.

remind you that many people
heartily disagree with your

portunity as a taxpayer, and a
subscriber to your paper, to
tell you SO.

There has been much said
in error-that the recently pro-
posed public accommodation
legislation is a new and some
what radical approach and in
consistent with American ira
dition. Such an assumption is
In error. The fact is that in
1860 Massachusetts enacted the
first state law in the country
banning distinctions or restric.
lions based on race or color in
any licensed place of public ac-
commodation. BY the turn of
the century similar statutes
had been enacted in New York,
Kansas, Connecticut, Iowa,
New Jersey, Ohio, Colorado, H.
linois, Indiana, Michigan, Min.
nesota, Nebraska, Rhode Is
land, Pennsylvania, Washing
ton, Wisconsin and California.
Thus, we can see that by 1900,
before most of us were born,
Is states had already legislated
a public policy against discrim-
nation for reasons of race or
color in places of public ac-
commodation. And today more
than half of our so states-27
to be exact - have public ac-
commodation laws.
This tradition of almost a
century of state public accom-
mediation statutes should serve

The County Council will do something
positive concerning the plight of ''The For
gotten co." These are the approximately 80
elderly folks who have to rely on public as
sistance in order to live in nursing homes.
The cost for caring for these fine elderly
citizens has gone up but the appropriation
has not kept pace.
The area around Olney, Sandy Spring
and Ashton will begin to grow at an
astounding rate. There will be at least four
subdivisions underway by March Is. The
City Council of Rockville will change its
makeup so much that one won't recognize
it. Three volunteer fire departments will
get partiallypaid staffs. The Holy Cross
Hospital of Silver Spring will open and it
won't be long before all of the beds are
filled. Many changes are slated for the
Montgomery General Hospital. A young
lady from Silver Spring will be the next

will come of it. =. The county delegation
to Annapolis might adopt the policy of re-
pealing at least three laws before presenting
a new one. Len Hardy will be reelected.
The police officers of the county will
become more like the Maryland State Police
in their approach to motorists about to be
charged with violation. There will be very
little of this where do you think you're
going - get out of the car and walk up the
road - type of approach.
There will be at least six new bank
branches, six more office buildings, twelve
more industries and $4,000 new residents.

Wick Byron's Column

Tawes will not be reelected Governor of
Maryland
Matthias will be reelected Congressman
from the Sixth District.
These two predictions are about as valid
as individual opinion would make them. In
other words, each year we write column
in which we pretend that some unusual
power is momentarily granted so that we
can tell you what is going to happen during
the new year. It's game and you can be
sure that we never check up to see how
things turn out. If one of the following
comes true, we'll be surprised:
Local Democratic leaders will flare up
early in March and IL will seem as IL the
Iong-Iooked.for definite split has arrived be-
tween the more or less regular Democrats
and the more liberal Democrats often called
Democrats for 49," After several weeks of
pickering, things will be smoothed over
enough SO that a coalition ticket can be
formed. There will be some individuals in
both camps who will want to slug it out in
a primary fight but it is doubtful that this
will happen. The one man who will be re.
sponsible for smoothing things over politi.
calIy will be Blair Lee who is a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for Senator. A
knock down dragged out Democratic Party
fight would do the local party too much
harm and diminish chances for the county
to get United States Senator once again.
Republicans won't fight in a primary
because there is no one to fight. The lead
oYc1oip obo foa or &c fho1
it has been for years And if Theodore
Roosevelt McKeldin is able to capture the
Governorship again it will only be because
the Democrats in the State arranged their
own defeat. Local Republicans may be
able to role up an impressive vote simply
because they are fortunate in having a
strong Congressional candidate However,
chances are slim that single local office
can be captured by Republican candidate.
There will be more political investiga-
tons in Maryland in 1862 than there have
been during the past 25 years. And some
will deal with other than savings and loan
operations. . One of the smartest political
thinkers in Maryland will not run for the
United States Senate because Maryland
voters are not ready to put woman into
high office. This same thinking will
probably rule out Bertha Atkins too
Two extremely high officials in the
School system will resign. The School Board
will lope off more than million dollars
from Dr. Writers capital budget and more
than million and a half dollars from his
operating budget. Then the County Council
will do some more cutting to the tune of at
least five million dollars from the total
amount to be requested by the School Board.
There isn't quite as much fiat in next
years school budgets as were in those pre-
sented to the Council last year but there are
couple of experts who have already indi.

although in 1853, the time of
the city's greatest Colonial
prosperity, the population
was only 1.217.
The city's prosperity and
the furnishing crafts is bet
ter explained by the fact that
wealthy landowners from all
parts were attracted to the
city by the Assembly, the
courts, the theater and horse

THE STATE OF KUWAIT,
the only country in the world

yesterday and in so doing

It was the first anniversary
of its treaty with Great

brated in Washington, in
deed the first party given in
Washington by the first Am
bassador from Kuwait.
Stories of the fabulous oil
wealth Of the Sheikh of Ku-
wait are legion: How his in

How he pours it right back
into the population so that
nobody has to worry about
where the next meal is COM
ing from. How one of his

ing about so Cadillacs. How
his two handsome, Swarthy
sons wear diamond bracelets
on each wrist. diamond

Also, how a square foot of
town property will bring

this affluence, announced
last year it was going to move
in as soon as the British
moved out, hence the British
haven't really moved very

One. John Glenn bears q

ously; and, three, poolSman-
ship Is an integral part Of
Hickory Hill.
The dance floor for the
estimated 800 guests extend
ed from the very edge of the
pool to the back fence Of
the Mclean estate, having
served first as a setting for
small dinner tables for half
that number.
BUT PERCHED ON THE
MIDDLE of a plank that
stretched across the pool was
a separate small table with
three chairs around it-one
for the hostess, one for

was said. for Justice Byron

sit there.
With the chair legs about
there inches from the edge Of
the plank, it was bound to
happen. but it didn't happen
to our boy Glenn. He, who
remained dry after DRIFTING
through space and landing
in the ocean in his capsule,
had no difficulty apparently
in staying topSide. It. was
his hostess who fell in, eve

when a chair leg went over
the side.
Before the evening was
over two Of her guests had

not of their own choosing.

fate. Luckily Arthur is about
the same size as Bobby Ken

Sarah Davis was QUILTED in

Ethel's.
Mrs. Kennedy, Of course,

guests as indefatigable as
