Montgomery County Council President Pushes Cohesion
WHEATON The new president Cleatus E. Barnett told reporters the Montgomery County Council is moving to ward more partisan positions as it begins its term. He chairs the Washington Suburban Transit Commission and backs the 1966 Republican platform. Barnett urged decisive action as a unit but warned no urgency for a Gun Control Bill. He supports the 2000 Plan, zoning code fixes, a mixed tax approach, and preserving provisions of the recently defeated Fire Bill.
