Truckers Are Puzzled.

Annapolis
Farmers Of Anne Arundel and Balti.
more counties are beginning to specu.
late as to where they are going to get
the labor to pick the strawberry and
pea crops this summer. What with
the scarcity Of labor and the rather
stringent Government regulations rela-
tive to alien enemies, the question of
crop gathering il getting to be serious.
It is a question which not alone con-
Germs the farmer, but the average
housewife az well, because IL there
are scant crops harvested, the prices
of farm produce may be expected to
soar.
Some idea of the seriousness of the
situation is cleaned from a statement
made yesterday by a leader of the
Polish colony in East Baltimore. He
said that in previous years from $500
to 1000 families would go from East
Baltimore alone to the country dis
tricts, where they would remain prac-
tically the entire spring and summer
seasons, starting with strawberries and
ending up with picking and canning
of peaches and tomatoes. This sea-
son, he said, because Of Government
regulations and natural labor scarcity,
he felt sure not more than 500 fam
lilies would be available for this pur-
pose.

Government to class the Poles as
enemy aliens. We have our fighting
legions now in France, and we are
encouraging in every way possible en-

ing the cause of Germany and Austria
in this war are not fighting from
choice, but because they are COM
PEELED to. We have no more love for |
Germany and Austria than we have
FOR Russia. All of these powers have
exploited the Pole. We want free
lom and we are fighting for it today
On the fields of France, because We
realize that only through the victory

He stated further that he would like
o see Congress or the President lift
he ban against Poles of Austrian or
German origin. No more patriotic
classes of foreign-born exist in this
country today, he said, and if this ban
lgainst them were lifted it would go
ar to solving the labor problem on
'ur farms this summer, particularly

To Help Enforce Work Law.

Governor Harrington asked the exc
cutive committee of the Maryland
Council of Defense to back him up in
a more vigorous enforcement Of the
Compulsory Work Law. The Commit
tee, by unanimous vote, assured the
Governor that it would do all in its
power to aid him. The 500 repre-
sentatives of the Council in Maryland
have sent in more than 200 cases and
new cases are reported every day.
Present at the meeting were Gen
eral Francis E. Waters, chairman;
Governor Harrington, Frank A..
Furst, Stevenson A. Williams and
John M. Dennis. The matter occup-
ing the most time was the discussion
Of war chest for Baltimore and for
the counties. Allegany county has
already done something in this direc-
ton. Columbus, Ohio, has handled
It very effectively and Detroit, Roches-
ter and Philadelphia are now in the
midst of their campaigns. The Mary
land Council will find out the ablest
Of the managers and invite him to
come to Baltimore to attend confer
ence. The idea is to put all the war
relief, aid and charity into one prop
osition and to save the public from
over-begging.
The executive committee was asked
whether the increased work of GER
tain manufacturer in Baltimore, involv-
ing the employment Of 5000 men,
would jeopardize other necessary
manufacture. The matter was investi-
gated and the reply of the committee
and it's experts was that Baltimore
could take care Of the new enterprise.
