A special Montgomery Coun-

empanelled to conduct an in
quiry into conflicts of interest
in government. Five Council
members, including Wilson and
Hepburn, testified last week on
specific charges that developer
Sam Fig tried to influence them
in reversing a coming decision
on property adjoining his near

On emerging from his session
with the grand jury, Wilson
was heard to mutter: $50 this

after his election as a Council

for Montgomery County, and
we should be represented" said
Walker, noting that the county
is the associations only county
member among II States in
which the sale of alcoholic bev-
erages is strictly controlled
through dispensary systems. He
recalled that liquor distributors
once threatened to boycott the
county for dealing directly with
distillers and that NABCA was
helpful in subduing the threat.
Miss Diggs, who serves on
the associations resolutions
committee, noted the county de-
rives over 81 million annually
in profits from liquor sales,
which, she said, reduces the
amount we have to ask the
property owner to cough up"
ours is the only county in
the United States which has the
authority to buy and sell as we
do"
Il find these meetings tre-
mendously worthwhile" added
Miss Diggs, who also attended
NABCA's meeting in New York
last spring, land 1 feel as many
Council members as possible

She put her county.paid ex-
penses at the New York meet
ing at $205.38, including air
fare. Her trip to the Denver
meeting of the National Asso-
citation of Counties this summer
cost S197.08, plus air fare, which
also was paid for by the county.
Walker also attended the
NABCA meeting in New York
this spring, but said he drove
up and charged the county for
his hotel expenses only.
An association spokesman
said as many as four Council
members, in addition to the pre-
vious County Manager, attended
its meeting in 1859.

penses since July l, when this
fiscal year began, shows that
by the end of October they had
expended over $500 of the
$500 they allowed themselves
for necessary travel through
next June.
While the amounts to be re-
turned by the two could reduce
the total expenditure to date to
some $1,000, FIoyd's expenses
and participation of Council
members in the Forthcoming
National Association Of COun-
ties convention in Hawaii in
February could bump the total
back up.
Comparison Of current Coun-
Gil travel expenditures with
those of previous years shows
$2849 was spent for this pur-
pose in the 1852 fiscal year
and even Iess-$2184-Iast year.
Floyd returned two weeks ago
from the week-long NABCA
conference in mid-November.
Councilman Walker, Mrs. Wal
ker and Miss Diggs returned
last weekend.
Judge Shook, a program
speaker at the meeting, drew
$1,000 from the CIRCUIT Courts
travel funds for her trip. She
will have her hotel expenses in
Honolulu paid for by the asso-
citation, a spokesman said.
The Shocks are not expected
back until after Jan. 1, having
extended their trip to take in
other areas OF the Far East,
Australia and New Zealand.
Miss Diggs, a close personal
friend, said the Shocks are TAX
ing pictures for National Geo
graphic Magazine on their trip.
Shook, she said, once worked
for the magazine and was an
"organizer" of one of Admiral
Richard E. Byrd's polar expedi-
tons.
Both Miss Diggs and Walker
said they felt their attendance
at the NABCA convention was
justified by precedent and cur
rent value.

YuIe Seals Go Back
To December Is, 1907

The story broke on Friday,
Dec. IS, 1907, quiet feature
buried on an inside page. But
on the next day, and every day
until Christmas, it was front
page-news.
1t was the Philadelphia North
American, now no longer pub
fishing, that ran the first story.
Emily Bissell, a welfare work.
er of Wilmington, Delaware,
went to the newspaper in the
hope that it might use its news
columns to help her raise $500
for the fight against tubercu-
losis, by selling some bright
little Christmas Seals that she
had designed. The editor gave
her a flat moi"
On her way out of the build
ing, Miss Bissell stopped to talk
to Leigh Hodges, a columnist
for the paper. Hodges took
some seals from her and went
to talk to the editor.
He convinced the editor.in-
chief that their newspaper
could do a great public service
by calling Christmas Seals to
the attention of their readers.
The headlines followed, encir-
cled by Miss Bissell's Christmas
Seals. A total of $3,000-ten
times what was hoped for-was
raised.
The beginning in Montgom-
cry County was not as spectac-
ular. Back in 1908, on Nov. %,
the Social Service League estab-
lished the program now carried
on by the Montgomery County
tuberculosis and Heart Associa.
ton as we know it today.
This agency was established
In those early years to promote
proper care and housing of the
poor, the sick, destitute children
and of the tuberculosis cases in
Montgomery County.
An executive committee, ap-
pointed at the first meeting to
handle the tuberculosis prob
lem, met objections and resist
ance to their endeavors to fight |
TB in the county at every turn. |
These tuberculosis pioneers
persisted, however, and through |
the years their work has proved |
lasting and worthwhile.
The first project proposed |
was to establish tent sanitar-
ium. Property owners objected,
circulated a petition and the
project was dropped.
The second year, 1910, plans
for soliciting funds for a county
sanitarium was defeated when
it was learned that the county
would not contribute toward the
project.
In the third year, 1911, a
grand total of 81 was realized
from the sale of Christmas
Seals. During the same year a
nurse was retained to care for
poor tuberculosis patients. Prog
ress was beginning.
The fight for a sanitarium or
hospital continued until 1916.
That year, three tents were in
use in the county for TB pa
tients. A bill passed by the
State Legislature provided
funds for a TB hospital and the
bill also provided for the APP
pointment of a tuberculosis
Commission for Montgomery
County.
Three sites for a TB sanitar-
ium were selected by the COM
