BeaH Backs
Ratification
OF Treaty r.

Sen. J. Glenn Beall (R.Md.)
said this week he intends to
vote for Senate ratification of
the nuclear test ban treaty.
1T is my present intention to
vote for ratification of the
nuclear test ban treaty." he de-
clared.
Il am doing this with the
full knowledge that Soviet
Russia may violate the treaty.
The Soviets have a special
fondness for non-aggression
pacts; they have gone into these
treaties in a big way and have
violated nearly every one.
II agree with what President
Kennedy said in his address to
the nation on July 26. On that
occasion he said: Nations can
not afford In these matters to
rely on the good faith of their
adversaries'."
Even though we hopefully
ratify the treaty, we will not
lose sight of the fact that
Khrushchev continues to hold
as his goal the complete over
taking of the world by the Com.
munist system"

Council Backs School Majority
On Junior College Curtailment
TakOna Park
Campus Seen
In Jeopardy
By William III. Smith
Sentinel Reporter

A closer relationship be-
tween the Montgomery
County Council and the
newly-elected majority of
the Board of Education
emerged Tuesday, when the
council majority approved a
proposed SIS million expan-
sion in the new Rockville
Junior College program.
Overriding the objections of
the veteran minority faction of
the School Board and two of
their fellow councilmen, four
county heads approved a re-
vised junior college construction
program which would have the
effect Of taking the funds away
from further development of
the existing junior college cam
pus In Takoma Park and adding
them to the new Rockville
facility.
Voting In favor of the new
program were President John
A. Floyd, John Henry Hiser, DIR.
Thomas M. Wilson and Mary
Hepburn, all Republicans, while
opposing votes were cast by
Jerry T. Williams and Grover
X. Walker. both Democrats.
Kathryn Diggs, the seventh
member of the body, was not
present.
The action was taken by the
council during the afternoon of
it,. allday -meeting, after the
issue had been discussed IN de-
tail for more than an hour in
its morning session. It resulted
from a motion by DR.. Wilson.
Much of the time during the
morning was devoted to a pres
entation by DIR. Clifford X.
Beck, a member of the school
board minority, In which he at
tempted to convince the council
that the newly-proposed expan-
sion of the Rockville plans
amounts to a sabotage" of the
Takoma Park school.
"The overwhelming weight of
the sum total record as It now
stands Is to the effect that the
board majority, for reasons
which they privately hold but
which have never I'm any way
been made public, are fully de-
termined to sell Takoma," Beck
declared.
"The procedure which they
have been forced to take Is a
devious one, since they cannot
declare their intents publicly
and still obtain state aid"
Majority members refused to
cOncede specifically that they
intend TO eliminate the Takoma
Park campus, but admitted that

The Montgomery County
Council took under considera-
ton Tuesday an amendment to
its public amusement ordinance
under which dances and other
public entertainment would be
confined to the hours during
which alcoholic beverages are
sold.
The amendment, which would
impose a license fee of 500 for
each public dance or other type
of entertainment presented for
profit, was aired at a public
hearing which produced no op-
position. Speaking in behalf of
the measure were Col. James S.

Assembly Law
Language Is
Due Revision

A reduced version of the
Montgomery County Councils
proposed ordinance on parades
and public assembly is being
drawn up by the councils legal
aide, possibly for consideration
next Tuesday.
Originally proposed to require
advance permits from the
County Manager for virtually
all types of public meetings ex.
cept those held In private
homes, the measure will be
altered to limit the restrictions
to parades and public demon.
STATIONS on county property, II
was reported this week.
The suggested revision was
requested by council members
following a public hearing last
month at which some 500 coun.
~ residents turned out to eX-
press their opposition. During
the three-and-a.half hour ses.
sion, only 80 speakers were
heard and IS of them voiced
strong opposition.
In Its original form, oppo.
nents noted, the law would have
required permits for meetings
of civic organizations, parent.
teacher associations, garden
clubs and numerous other or
CARNATIONS that meet In school
buildings and other public
places.
Revamping Of the original
proposal was assigned to Coun.
ty Attorney Robert G. Tobin Jr.,
who said Tuesday afternoon he
had not had an opportunity to
review the measure.

Rights Law
Extension
Eyed Di1nnly

A Human Relations Com
mission suggestion that the
Montgomery County Coun-
Gil extend its public accom-
modations privileges to pub
lie places engaged primarily
in the sale of alcohol drew
no hackers when the two
groups met this week.
The issue came up when the
commission appeared before
the council to present its annual
report, received by council
members for study last week
and-as has been the case on
several previous occasions
was accepted coolly by the gov
erning body.
In expressing the commits
sion's views, Rev. Kenneth B.
Wetzel, chairman, said some
progress has been made in its
efforts to obtain equal rights
for all persons in places of pub
lie accommodation. But, he
added, I'VE are very much con-
cerned about the attitude to-
ward basic human rights, and
we feel it is our responsibility
to see what redress they may
have"
The laws exemption for
places engaged in the sale of
alcoholic beverages has resulted
in a number of embarrassing
incident, the Rev. Mr.. Vented
asserted.
Il suspect that the most flag
rant case was when one of our
own employees social worker
employed by the county = was
denied service in one of our
restaurants because God gave
her a brown skin," the minister
said. He referred to one of two
cases in which social workers
were refused service in a Rock
vile restaurant, which substan-
tiated its claim that it was
exempt from the law when the
commission made a formal in
vestigation. "a
Asked by DIR. Thomas M. vii.
son, q council member, IL the
commissions powers of per-
suaslon" had achieved any re-
suits, the Rev. Mr.. Vented
replied: mot to the extent that
we would like"
At one point in the discus
sion, Councilman John Henry
Hiser said he had received a
number of letters and heard
other complaints from church
groups concerned with the civil
rights problem. 1--WE been a
little bit surprised to hear COM
plants about this odious exemp-
ton clause come from people
whose own churches are op-
posed to drinking" he COM
mented.
Rabbi Lewis A. Weintraub,
commission member, responded
to Hiser's comment with the
assertion that the churches
were concerned with civil rights
that are far more basic than
the right to drink" even though
many of them do oppose exces-
sive drinking in principle.
Council member Mary Hep
burn questioned the Rev. Mr..
Wentzels reference to those
denied access to some restau-
rants as helpless" people. ION
what do you base this?" she in
quired.
The minister replied that he
felt anyone entitled to civil
rights could be considered help
less when denied those rights in
a community where all people
are considered to be free and
equal. II don't believe there is
a Negro who lives in the coun-
ty who doesn't feel it every
day." he added.
Presentation of the report
brought no formal response by
the council, although the Rev.
Mr.. Vented reminded the gov
erning body that the terms of
three appointive members have
expired. The discussion ended
with Floyd expressing apprecia-
ton to the commission for pre-
senting the report.
