City five times, and which have govern
ed the extension of the limits of other
cities and towns in the State.
OPPORTUNITY For GREAT SHIPPING AND
MANUFACTURING CENTER.
THERE'S magnificent opportunity
Immediately at hand tor a tremendous
development of manufacturing at Balti-
more, and, as an encouragement to
manufacturing, we have embodied in
the Bill provision exempting not only
the plant and machinery, but all raw
material, stock in trade and other per-
sonal property of manufactures within
the territory to be added, there being
an ordinance now pending in the CITY
Council providing the same exemption
for personal property used in manufac-
turing within the present City limits.
Our City is enjoying an era of splen-
did progress and improvement, both
public and private. The advantages of
the harbor and the surrounding land as
place for one of the great shipping
and manufacturing centres of the world
is becoming widely known. The Com
mlttee believe that in order to realize
the highest and best development of the
City and harbor of Baltimore, the whole
territory connected with the develop
ment should be under the government
of Baltimore City, rather than partly
in the City, partly in Baltimore County
and partly in Anne Arundel County,
and that it is of great Importance to
have the extension of the CITY limits
made by the Legislature of 1918. in or.
der that the City may get the advant-
of IFS or -, H.
of 1920.
No Politics IN BILL-NO ADDITIONAL
Power TO CITY.
There is no politics in the proposed
Bill, put simply a matter effecting the
best development from the standpoint
OF business. commerce. health and
good government of this part of the
State, and directly promoting the gen
eral welfare of the entire State. The
passage of the proposed Bill will not
give Baltimore City a single additional
vote in the Legislature nor will it de-
prlve Baltimore or Anne Arundel Coun-
ty OF single vote In the Legislature.
The Committee, therefore, recommend
to the League the approval of this Bill
and express the hope that it may be ap-
proved and passed by the Legislature
solely on the ground that they believe
it to be matter which will promote
the public welfare.

subject to be vetoed or thwarted by a
bare Minority of the comparatively few
people of the State living in the ter
ritory proposed to be added to the
City.
Your Committee, therefore, have per-
pared the Bill, to become effective upon
being passed by the Legislature, so that
the City limits will be extended by the
Act of the Legislature, without any
referendum. Just as the limits of
Hagerstown, Frederick. Cumberland
and other cities of the State have been
extended, and as the limits of Baltimore
City. five times in its history, were ex-
tended. The only Acts, in the history
of the State, extending the limits of a
city or town ever submitted to a refer
endum, were the Act of 1874, attempt
ing to extend the limits of Baltimore
City, when the will of the Legislature
was thwarted by the adverse vote of a
majority of the people in the territory
proposed to be added, and the Act Of
1888, when the wise purpose of extend
ing the City on three sides was nullified
by the adverse vote of majority of
the Eastern section, with the result
that the development in the territory to
the east has BEEN hampered and re-
tarded as compared with the develop
ment to the north and west of the City
limits as they existed prior to 1888.
These two Acts were passed under a
mistaken view as to the requirements
of the Constitution, and as that mis-
take has been cleared away by the de-
cision of the Court of Appeals, the Com
mittee feel that there should be a re-
turn to the presidents which governed

FORD IS CALLED
 JAR IF DEMOCRACY
 BY TIE EFORD OWNER

The following article taken from the October issue of the Fordowner presents an interesting viewpoint a3out the car that it's creator has made known as The Universal Car
 We are sending a million men to France, with perhaps millions more to follow.-to make the world safe fol democracy We have freely given bil- lions for the war-but not one cent for graft We believe the Ford car t. be the best in the world for reliable and efficient service, and we believe that it can be used to help win the war. It is the car of democracy, in everyday life; and the same qualities, that make it pre-eminent in everyday service, give it special advantages for army use.
 For staff use, as officers cars, for general utility, as a gun platform for machine guns and their ammunition, and for all light hauling, and even for the transportation of troops, we thing that the Ford car is better adapted than any other
 The Ford car, with it's flexible sus- pension is best adapted for roug'i road use. Its general use. in all coun- tries of the world. both where there are roads and where there are none, proves this. The American Red Cross has repeatedly asserted that they use Ford cars, not because trey are cheaper, but because they have been. fnnrd hv actual service to he hett o~

There are so many lit tie things that may still be done for the men who have been selected to play a part in the worlds war, which to them will mean much in the un- comfortable Kansas camp. Cakes, cookies and fruits have been suggest ed to make their hearts glad. One of the men recently received a box of fudge from home and the others talked about it for days.

adapted for use on shell torn roads and battelfields than any other car. If Ford cars are good enough for our wounded, they are certainly good enough for anyone,-Officer included.
 The Ford car is simple and easy to drive. And we think that, when an officer needs a car, he should be able to drive it himself. Just as all the greatest commanders the world has ever known have been able to ride their own horses.
 Tn this machine made war, the of ficer, who is too stupid to drive his own Ford, is too stupid to he an of ficer Roosevelt devised the horse rid ing test for every officer who claimed to he in active service. But times change, so we should apply the Ford driving test to every officer who claims to be ii active service now. X soldier, who has given up q good iob and sacrificed tfe comfort of his family fer his county. will certainly feel that the sacrifice has been made in vain, if he is detailed to be the private chauffeur ard cater to the plea sure of an officer.
 Private chauffeurs in the army mean wasted men. The use of eA nensive cars means wasted money. The use of either means that the public will lose confidence
 in it's army. as being efficient. dem- ocratic, and free from graft. The government is making great efforts to motor trucks for it's army service but tke Ford car has already been standardized
 The waste and graft of the Spanish American war would have been comic If they had not been so sad to those whose lives and money were wasted. To waste either men or money in this real war, either by stupidity, Or by graft will be a tragedy, and a de- fhcrate crime that should be pun ished

TURN BY
 APPEALS MADE
 FOREXEMP T|ON

Running the gamut from cheers to tears, the ordinary sweep of days business in the office of Colonel Fred s. Breen, the government represent ative in Arizona in the operation ot forming new national army, is work for a. strong man. Not exactly phys ically. although Colonel BIeen would not be able to put in the many hours at his desk in his state house office every day. and night, too, if he We're not a strong man, but mentally, and sentimentally.
 There are the young men getting their papers to join the army. AnXi GUS to go Cheered on. Making q gala occasion of the whole thing. Hurrah, everybody gI2d Good luck, g0od-h
 And then, there's another side.
 Mrs. Roxie V. Davis, 63 years old, entered Colonel Breen's office yester- day afternoon. Trembling with grief and choking with sobs she sank into chair hastily placed by Colonel Breen and told her story.
 By means of a railroad ticket fur nishod her by friends she had come alone from Redondo, Cal, in search of the head man in Arizona who has cha1ge Of the taking away of the young men and putting them into the army. Like all the rest, she was sent to Colonel Breen. Encouraged oy that official, the aged woman had this to say:
 'They have my son, Leonard, some where in camp training him for the army He is only 21 years old and my only support He has been learn ing to be a telegraph. operator and only short time ago secured Lis first position in Pima county, Arizona. leaving me and my thirteen year-old daughter in Redondo.
 The first intimation 1 had that he had been taken away for the army was when l received bundle con taining his clothing. He was then iii st camp somewhere and in uniform. had lather it had been casket con- tairirg his dead body.
 What are we, my little girl and myself, going to do to live? Leonard is our only support. We have no one else iii the world to turn to. We have been living or charity since he was taken away. Germans have been giving us food to eat. Think of l. l would rather starve than be forced to live on food given us by Germans. out what are we to do?
 We need that young man more than the government does. We need him to keep us from starving or being fed by Germans. I have come to you to see if you can do anything for us. My little girl is back in Redondo, but she has written this letter for me to give to the general it the camp where they have Leonard.
 This is the little girls letter:
 "Redondo Beach, Cal, Oct. IS. Dear MT. General:
 Mrs Bixie Y Davis is my own dear mother and she is going to sec you and ask you to please grant it to her. II is this: Edwin Leonard Hen sley is my own dear brother he is all we have in this world and he is our only support and want you to send him back to us. He is somewhere in Q camp training 1 pray you grant this wish in the name of God. In grant ing this wish you will also save my mothers life. l feel sure you will grant this favor.

WITH THE FLOWERS.

For bulb planting in the autumn
make an early selection of the ones
you want, thus securing the best speci-
mems. Planting is not to be done un-
til the late frosts, when the beds now
in use will be unoccupied and ready
for the bulbs. Beds planted this au-
tumn will begin Towering almost be-
fore the snow disappears in the spring.
For an early crop Of sweet peas next
year remember to plant sweet peas In
the open ground next November.
When the fact is considered that it
takes nearly two tons of fresh manure
to make one ton Of rotted manure.
owing to the loss by evaporation and
teaching, it may be seen that much of
the fertilizing matter originally con-
tanned is lost in the rotting process,
and that when fresh there are more
tons and so more fertilizing material
to make use Of.

TABLE DECORATIONS

The best plant for a daily table deco
ration is undoubtedly the asparagus
plumosus. 1t has foliage much dain-
tier than any other fern.
1t can be easily grown in a bushy
compact form which a plant designed
for table use should have.
No matter what your selection the
arrangement of the cut flowers and
the beauty Of the potted plant make
the effect.
Poppies, of gorgeous colors, artisti-
cally placed in a simple glass bowl.
makes one Of the most beautiful and
restful center pieces.
For your plants get three or four
asparagus plumosus and give them a
good soil of garden loan made light
with sand. Water moderately. Sum
shine is not essential to Its successful
culture.
Shower several times a week and
keep red spider from injuring 1t. Be
sure to nip off the end Of each shoot
as advised to above to make the plant
spread out well.
Don't forget that a bowl Of flowers
on the table is a great distributor of
sunshine and dispeller Of gloom.
