been too many chiefs and not
enough Indians"

The group will meet at least
once every month, Hardy says.
Asked about his own motiva-
tons, Hardy admits he's polit-
ically ambitious. He'd like some
day to run for the job of Mary
land Attorney General.
A practicing attorney since
1913, Hardy attended Rutgers
and Princeton Unive rsities.
World War II, in which he saw
service as a marine on Guam,
interrupted his studies and he
entered George Washington Uni
versity Law School after the
war where he won a bachelor Of
laws degree and a master of
laws degree one year later.
Married to the former Kath-
ryn Neel of Silver Spring, he
has two children, Leonard, Jr.,
and Kathy. The family lives at
the Manor Club. A next door
neighbor is John A. Floyd, one
of the Republican winners in the
now.famous 1862 election, who
has been elected president of the
County Council.

court order requiring County
Librarian George P. Moreland
to return the book to the library
shelves. Moreland had removed
the book under orders from
Butcher.
The Levine suit contended
that only the County Council
had the authority to order the
book removed. Judge Shure
ruled that Butcher had the
authority under the county's pc.
lice powers.
The opinion condenses opin-
ions given by 10 expert wit
nesses, then contains a personal
comment offered by Judge
Shure.
Judge Shure opined that Mill
er's "chief Obsession, interest
and necessity, waking or sleep
ing. drunk or SOBER. Is food,
drink and sexual acts or con-
versatiOn about the same; and
the Shiny flow of his attraction
to excrement expressed in a
four-lettered word, and thoughts
thereof, runs like a sewer
through his printed work of
putrid paragraphs and pages Of
topography whichprevade the
book" Judge Shure said.
Even the few pages which
are cleverly written describe the
writer as a moral derelict and
social dissenter, and these pages
are often interspersed with the
putrid and slime of the authors
mental sewer with which he is
constantly pre-occupied."
He then ruled that the mea-
sure of obscenity set down by
the Supreme Court a few years
ago - appeal to the prurient
interests = is met by the book
and it therefore is obscene be-
cause the treatment did not con-
form to contemporary commu-
nifty standards of morality.
"The court is constrained to
state that to hold otherwise
would constitute a gross derelic-
ton of duty with total disregard
for the health and morality of
the citizens Of this County and
State" he said.

ures in Baltimore City - some
thing the voters of Montgomery
County shouldn't even be called
upon to decide.
So, what does IL all add up
to? You tell us.
Miss Dd1Dson also includes
this interesting tactNdl data
on her list: total registered
Uoters, 1928; total Uotes
cast at polls, 1O1,566; total

So there you have it. You'll
note the Republicans cast only
a slightly higher percentage of
their votes than did the Demo
Gratis. But they won easily.
One conclusion, therefore,
seems reasonably safe: a lot
of Democrats voted for Re-
publicans. Not that this will
come as startling news to
Democratic aders. They
knew this on the night Of
Nov. 6 at about 10 o'clock
when 1t became apparent the
Republicans were on the
verge of becoming 'ins" In
stead of "Outs."

movement to have the regula-
tons changed"
However" he said, "it ap-
pears that the County may be
losing some revenue from the
regulations"
"There are many people in
the county who like to go out
for good dinner and If they
don't belong to a country
club or can't wangle an invi.
tation to private club, they
go into the District. They
take potential business out of
the county,"
Last year, alcoholic beverage
sales through Ervin's depart
ment pumped $1,207, 417.49 into
the county treasure, but the de-
partment stood helpless while
at least that much more went
down the drain like hooch on a
drunkard's palate.
Erwin figures the county's
imbiberS take what amounts to
every other drink outside the
county. He figures freer access
to the shot glass in the county
would mean sales through his
office amounting to a total of
$24 million a year.
If Ervin's estimate is fairly
accurate, Montgomery Count
ans may be juicing it up faster
than the national average.
The Distilled Spirits Institute
figures that the average Amer
lean guzzles about $50 worth of
liquor a year. Actual sales in
the county last year match this
average, but Ervin's estimate
would put the county consump-
ton at more than double the
national average.
"This is only my estimate"

presently split county Demo
Gratis under middle-of-the.road
leadership and regain control of
the County Council and the
State Legislative delegation at
the next election"
The announcement, signed by
Alger Y. Barbee, former states
attorney and delegate who was
defeated for denomination in the
1862 primary by liberal Mar
garet c. Schweinhaut, listed
these moderateS as members of
the executive council: Hardy,
Virginia Black, Barbee, Donald
Lamborne, Edwin Brown, Wiley
Barrow, Donald Claggett, Char
les Jamison, Samuel Riggs,
Charles Buscher, and Edwin
Bright.
After the group was form
ed, it received a powerful
boost from Blair Lee, defeated
in his 1862 primary bid for
the United States Senate,
when Lee said he was joining
the group.
Many had specialized that it
could be Lee who would rally
feuding Democratic forces and
lead them toward future vic
tory.
And his willingness to accept
subordinate role in a group
he did not organize himself is
seen as highly significant.
Hardy says Lee has been wei
coined "as one of our group"
and whether Lee will work
toward ultimate leadership of
the group will be watched by
many.
Where does County Above
Party fit into the emerging
Democratic picture?
The group, credited by some
with playing major role in the
election outcome-which was so
disastrous to the liberals, - has
now SERVED its purpose" Hardy
believes. "In fact, two of their
leaders, Donald E. Gingery and
Charles B. Buscher, are now
members of our group" he
added. GAS far as know, they
have disbanded."
During the coming months
Hardy says the group will try
to overcome apathy at the
party's voter level. He says it
will not attempt to unseat the
liberal Democratic State Cen
trail Committee majority for
the next four years.
They've been elected by
party members to serve until
the primary of 1866" he points
out.
But he feels most strongly
that the new group he heads af-
fords the opportunity to elm
mate at least some of the feud-
ing factions within the county
Democratic party.
There have been the Ray
Murphy group and the Bill
Wheeler group and the Len
Hardy group and the Blair Lee
wing, and the Rose Kramer
faction and the Peggy Schwein-
haut group and the supporters
of Bill Hickey, Ann Brown and
Ted Miller" he points out.
That's been the trouble all
along" he said. There have

the like.
The big split in the Demo-
cratic party started in earnest
In 1858 when the liberals or.
gained the Democrats for
'58" and struck out boldly to
seize party leadership. They
narrowly missed that year but
sOundly defeated their mod.
crate and conservative foes in
the 1862 primary.
Then the voters in the 1862
general election set back the lib.
eral cause heavily by electing
Republican majorities to the
County Council and the local
delegation to the General AS,
sembly. Kardy's group says the
liberals have been thoroughly
repudiated.
Now the reshuffling starts
And a continuation of fractional
strife seems assured.
Hardy himself does not expect
party harmony.

says. There will always be
factions within the party" he
adds.
But we are going to try to

can," he declares. "Our first OBJ

sible when the election for these
