COP Newsletter

You mention that a recent
COP newsletter" was sent
out to 1000 party faithful.
/ wish the Republican Party
were just half as rich as the
Democrats around here, for
the budget allowed for the
mailing to go to only little
over 200 faithful. However,
through your newspaper and
the publication of this article a
few additional Republicans
were reached, at no further
cost to the Republican Party.
Thank you.
The newsletter understand
suggested that applicants in.
quire through Mr.. Lackey con.
corning many positions simply
because of his current (up to
date knowledge of a major
ity of the positions: the quail
fications required, the salary,
full time or part time, merit
system or non-merit system,
location of position, etc. If
the Sentinel knows of a Re.
publican who can supply the
same answers, and at the
same time is not Objectionable
to the Sentinel, 1 would very
much appreciate having his or
her name.
The newsletter could have
very well suggested that all
details be handled through
the President or all members
of the Council, but this pro.
cedure would have been a pre-.
posterous waste of their very
valuable time. For it is com.
mon knowledge that 20 or 30
inquiries must be handled be-
fore even a relatively minor,
non-paying, citizen-board posi-,
ton is filled.
Emery Hertelendy
Editors Note: The Sen.
tinel does not know of a
single Republican - other
than Mr.. Lackey who knows
all about the employment
situation - but it would not
be Objectionable to us If all
jObseekers followed pro.
cedures that were routine
before the last election and
applied through the person
mel departments of the va
riOus public agencies.)

Fine Community Asset

Montgomery County does have stake in the National
Symphony Orchestra along with the the Washington
area-and big one.
The orchestra rich cultural asset to the entire COM
mny offers frequent concerts here for both adults and
school children and of course is easily accessible to the
many countians who attend the downtown concerts
What the general public may overlook is that only
portion of the symphonys needed funds come from ticket
sales Without the annual sustaining fund drive going
on the orchestra would not be able operate If were put
on businessike basis of pricing tickets for what it
costs to run the orchestra, many music lovers would be
priced out of attending.
line symphony orchestra is major factor in devel-
opment of fine community rather than lust an ordinary
community If you appreciate fine community YOU should
be willing to make small contribution to this fine COM
munity asset

School Ours
Richard p. Abel
Bethesda

I wonder how many Of
Montgomery County's citizens
are aware that the School
Board cut of $732,9O0 will
mean a loss of $79,3 800 in State
support for our schools (the
States share of the admins
trative and supervisory sala.
ries that have been dropped).
Thus the County will have a
reduction of only $653,570 in
its school budget and the tax
payer will save four cents on
his tax rates.
For this four cent tax cut
the number of children who
will be able to have a foreign
language In the elementary
schools will be reduced by one
third, and the elementary for
eign language program will
be totally eliminated in three
years.
Hundreds of class rooms
will have more than thirty
seven students. There will be
an insufficient number of en-.
cyclopedias. Driver education
(and this means the safety of
others as well of our chill
dren) will be eliminated for
the new schools and no further
expansion of the program al
lowed for the old schools,
although the present program
has failed to meet the needs of
a thousand students.
Meaningful physical educa-
ton will be seriously curtail.
ed. There will be twenty teach
ers (down eleven from last
year, and eleven teachers for
102 schools, in spite of the
fact that we expect 5000 more
elementary students next
year.
In this connection it is in.
teresting to note that Prince
Georges County has seventy.
four physical education teach
ers for its elementary stu
dents, and Baltimore County
has almost one teacher per
one an one-half schools as op-
posed to our eleven teachers
for one hundred two schools.
Although my child grad
uated from elementary school
long before the inception of
the invaluable foreign Ian.
guage program, and so was de-
prived of those most essential
early years of study in a for
eign language, we were thank.
full for the advantages of the
physical education, music, art
and driver education courses.

The Public Forum

night. Although I saw them
while in Nashville, Tennessee,
it is to be hoped that many
residents of this area may
have viewed them for their
relevance, individually and
collectively, to our country's
position and needs in this
time of world crisis. I would
like to offer one persons re-
actions to those presentations
and their implications for our
educational system.
General Eisenhower in his
fascinating review of Mr.. Lin.
coin as Commander-in.C Chief
of the Union Armies pointed
out that, although many ele-
ments in the waging of war
change over the ages, the
single factor unaltered
throughout is the human one.
Further, to assess accurately
and to employ effectively the
human considerations are in
large part, to determine the
difference b etwe en- victory
and defeat.
David Brinkley subse-
quently provided an excellent
portrayal of the difficulties
involved in bringing order
and prosperity to a country
(Bolivia) recently converted
by relatively bloodless rev.
olution from a feudal auto
crazy to one with all the
hopes and aspirations we
have for the citizens of a de-
mocracy. Sharply accented
were the time necessary for
these difficulties to be solved
and the threats posed to or
derby development by anarchy
and by Communist exploita-
ton of the trials and tribula-
tons inherent in the evolution
of the democratic process I'M
der such circumstances.
In this viewers mind, the
elimination came in DR.. AL
bert Burke's presentation on
probe" He pointed out first
that the defense of this coun.
try is irrevocably dependent
on raw materials available to
us only from a variety of
foreign lands, principally in
Africa and South America.
He then developed in very
lucid fashion our inability to
convert our country's techni-
Geological superiorities to a
truly effective weapon for our
cause. The crux of this fail
ure was our national ignor-
ance of the languages and
cultures of other countries up.
on which we are so depend
ent. This he forcibly laid at
the doorstep of our schools
for their lack of education for
the coming generation appro-
pirate to the new world in
which we and they live.
would hope that officials
of our County school system
and particularly the new
members of the School Board
would consider carefully the
altered circumstances of our
present national existence and
the challenge they present.
The expenditure of relatively
small sums to these ends now
may avoid the necessity of
far greater spending for our
country's defense in the fu.
ture and actually might de-
termine our very survival.

be viewed by some as being
perhaps unlettered and In some
ways he is unlettered.
But in other ways, he prob
ably is as hterate a person as
you'll ever see in your life.
Lterate In the terms Of the
understanding Of human ma
ture.
He will not be the most well
read person you'll ever know.
But he'll have a human instinct
that I think will almost sur
pass any other person that
you'd ever encounter.
He is a person of great
charm, great poise. At times
he can be almost brusque and
rude. Always determined, al
ways firm, always a man of
convictions. An indomitable and
indefatigable worker. Working
always for perfection. Wouldn't
you say that is a pretty good
analysis Of him, sweetheart?
Those are the qualities that

close TO the President. as you
know. I first went to work for
him in 1888. I worked for him
again in 1919. We served In
the uniform Of the Navy, as
did President Kennedy.
President johnson and I
were actually serving together
in the Navy, during the war
and I thought how ironic that
in spite Of the fact that I man
aged his campaign, unsuccess-
fully, for the presidency, that
the man who defeated him
President Kennedy, named me
Secretary of the Navy, a highly
treasured position so far as ]
was concerned.
And then on the very day
that the President was assassi-
mated and that I was wounded.
the result of that was that Mr..
johnson became the President
Of the United States. A rather
strange set of circumstances.

Asks About Memorial
AgrOnSky Governor, many
Americans feel that we should
have a memorial to the Presi-
dent. Have you thought of
that debt, what kind?
COnnally-Martin, I would
most certainly think we ought
to have a memorial to the
President. I don't know what
kind. 1t could be any kind, it
could be marble, it could be
granite, it could be stone.
But really would hope that
If the American people build
a monument to President Ken
nedy that they do not do it in
a sense Of absolving themselves
.of the sins of which 1 think
we all must suffer.
For a lack of tolerance, a
lack Of understanding for the
prejudice, the passion, the hate
and the bigotry that permeate
this whole society in which we
live.
That I think manifested it.
self here on Friday. I think
this was only one facet Of it.
We see it in the bombings of
five little children, five little
girls in Birmingham. 1t hap
pens elsewhere in the United
States.
We, I think above all else,
if we erect such a monument,
we ought to erect is as a monu-
ment to patience, to toler-
ance. to knowledge. to human
understanding, to human dig
nifty, freedom of the individual
and society to live under law
and under God. And where
each can respect each other.
Notwithstanding that they
disagree with them because we
have permitted the circum-
stances to occur in this country.
For fanaticiSm, and extrem-
ism, has become a fad, a fash
ionable fad and this has to be
destroyed. The people of rea-
son, the people of logic, the
people of intelligence are going
to have to emerge.
They are the people who are
the silent people. They are the
people who are not speaking.
And their voice is going to
have to become the dominant
voice Of this country.

Wife Told of Death

AgrOnsky-Thank you, Gov
ernor. Governor, when did they
tell you that President Ken
needy was dead?
COnnalIy-They told me Sat-
urday, after l was conscious
enough really to understand.
Nellie told me, and it was no
news to me, though. because I
was almost sure that he would
be after the two shots I felt he
had taken.
1 hoped, as everyone else did
of course, 1 hoped longer than
most because 1 did not know
until long after most people,
that he had succumbed. Be-
cause 1 personally felt that I
had been killed too when /
received my shot.
AgrOnsky-What were your
first conscious thoughts about
the Presidents death?
COnnalIy-Martin. my really
first conscious thoughts are still
my same conscious thoughts.
Just, my God what a horrible,
horrible tragedy, and how in
the space of a fleeing moment
things can change.
Only before here were two
relatively young men. We were
almost identical age, riding
with, what I would like to be-
lieve, with two of the most
beautiful wives in this country.
We had been together for "a
hours. They were happy, we
were their hosts, we were proud
to be their hosts in Texas.
They had a tremendous well
come in San Antonio, in Hous-
ton, in Fort Worth, in Dallas.
And then in a matter Of a few
seconds this incident occurred
that changed all our lives,
changed the course Of history,
for many people and in what
many diverse ways, you never
know.

And that Is to so shock and
so stun a Nation, and the
people and the world of what's
happening to US. OF the can
cerous growth that's being per-

itself upon the community and
the society in which we live.
