BY JACK ALLEN, Staff Correspondent of The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md., September 20.— | Echoes of a cry heard over a far- flung front during the campalgn last Fall reverberated yesterday and threw the Montgomery County commission- ers’ meeting into turmoil when a| Democratic organization appointee to the police force was accused of par- | ticipating in politics. The verbal commotion lasted but e few moments, but out of it came a stringent order barring policemen from engaging in such activity, and a warning that any violation of the new mandate would constitute cause for a recommendation for dismissal was to be sounded by police officials today. | Fusion Commissioner Paul Cough- lan, whose party made a primary issue of police participation in politics during the late campaign, offered the order after explaining to the board that his attention had been called to & policeman’s presence at a political meeting last week. An objection to passage of the order was immediately interposed by Com- missioner Robert D.
