Flooded With REQUESTS

Having effected organization in
their respective houses, the Senators
and Delegates having been sworn in.
and the Governors message having
been received and promulgated. the
Maryland Legislature which began its
biennial session on Wednesday. has
adjourned until next Tuesday night
al s O'Clock In the meantime con
ferences are being held relative to the
appointment of the several commit
tees.
Requests for appointment to the
more important committees have
flooded both Speaker Wooden and
President Campbell, and they face a
large problem III the distribution OF
the places. Speaker Wooden expects
TO have all assignments made in
time to announce them when the leg
islature convenes again next Tues
day night
The Speaker announced that he
would consider each members re-
quest, and he asked that they make
them Immediately
The balance Of the week is 10 be
spent in assigning the members TO
the various committees. The Demo-
Gratis viii be given the same priv
ileges the Republicans were given i'm
the 1916 session in the House, while
the Democrats will hold the bulk of
the important committee places in
the Senate
Al o
Delaplaine will head the Judiciary
committee, which is composed of Is
members, nine Republicans and four
Democrats. Delaplaine would also
like TO be leader, because he stepped
aside and permitted the election of
Speaker Wooden without opposition
Delaplaine served on the judiciary
committee at the last regular session
Just who will head the ways and
means hasn't been decided, but the
Republicans will pick one of their
best men for it. although the Budget

important organization
President Campbell will make his
appointments as soon as all matters
pertaining thereto have been prop
erly arranged He has asked Senator
Speicher, minority floor leader to
confer with his colleagues and pre-
pare the list of the minority, so that
the appointments viii not be tied up

SECRETARY NCADOO
ISSUES STATEMENT
Liberty Bonds Must MOI lie Bar
tered
NOT PATRIOTIC
To Exchange Bonds For Merchandise
Defeats Purpose Intended
Secretary McAdoo today authorized
the following statement:

Secretary McAdoo today authorized
the following statement:
1T has been brought to my atten-
ton that numbers of merchants
throughout the country are Offering to
take Liberty Loan Bonds Of the first
and second issue at par. or even in
some cases at premium, in exchange
for merchandise While | have no
doubt that these merchants are actu-
ated by patriotic motives, ! am sure
that they have failed to consider the
effect which the acceptance of their
offers would have upon the situation.
We are making the strongest effort
TO have these government bonds pur-
chased for permanent investment by
the people at large, to be paid for out
of the past or future savings of those
who buy them. Purchases thus made
not only result in providing funds for
the uses of the government, but they
also effect a conservation Of labor
and material. When the bonds are ex-
changed for merchandise, 1t defeats
the primary object of their sale, It
discourages thrift and increases ex-
penditures, thus depriving the gov
ernment of labor and material needed
for war purposes. In addition to this
such bonds when taken in excahnge
for merchandise must in most cases
be Immediately sold in the open mar
ket. This naturally tends to depress
the market price of the issue and
makes it less easy to sell future is
sues at the same time.
Il hope that the merchants of the
country, upon more careful con
sideration of this subject, will dis
continue their efforts to sell mer-
khandise and take Liberty Bonds in

How Cost Is Divided.

OF the 1888 cents per gallon which
Dr. Woods figures is needed 10 cover
costs Of milk delivered in Baltimore
he allows pip cents to the distribu-
Tor 2.l5 cents for transportation
and 40l1 cents for production. The
farmer pays the cost OF transporta-
ton, SC that be must be allowed the
total OF transportation and produc-
ton costs. which is 1925 cents. OF
the 81 cents per gallon which the con-
sumer now pays. the dealer gets %
cents and the producer 50 cents. Il
appears, therefore, that the dealer
now gets not quite one cent more than
Dr.. Woods calculates for him, and that
the produced gets 1926 cents less than
Dr.. Woods allows him.
IN view of this it is natural that the
farmer viii want more money; and,
