In view Of scriptural Affirmation
that between His death and resuT-
rection christ visited and ministered
to the spirits who had been disObe-
dent, and who, because of uneXpiated
sins were still held in duress, it is
pertinent to fhCIIire as to the object
and scope of the Savior's ministry
among them. CSee l Peter 3:1S-19 and
4:6l
His preaching to the spirits in
prison must have been purposeful
and positive. Moreover, it is not to
BE- assumed that His message was
other than one Of relief and mercy.
Those to whom He went had long
been in a state Of durance. depriya-
tiOn and suffering. To them came the
Redeemer to preach. not to further
condemn, to show them the way that
led to light. not TO intensity the dark
ness of their despair
Had not that visit of deliverance
been long predicted? Centuries earl
Ter Isaiah had voiced the word of
Jehovah concerning the state of proud
and wicked spirits: AND THEY

STATEMENT ISSUED
BY ADMINISTRATORS
Sends Open Letter To All Maryland
Fishermen. Rules Five
And Six

Edwin G. Baetjer, Federal Food Ad-
ministrator for Maryland, has sent the
following open letter to all salt water
fishermen in the State of Maryland:
You have already received from the
United States Food Administration, in
connection with your license, a pam
phlet of regulations under which salt
water fishermen are required by the
Federal Government TO operate. Your
attention is specifically called to the
following regulations:
Rule 5 requires the licensee to
obey all State laws in force where he
is operating, not in conflict with these
general or special regulations. This
means that fishermen are not allowed
TO catch fish of smaller size than that
permitted by the State law and are
not permitted in inside waters to take
fish out of season, as defined by the
State law United States Food Admin
istration regulations have not as yet
modified the State regulations in the
Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries.
Rule 6 forbids waste. This is in
terpreted by this office not only to
forbid the throwing away of edible
fish or the allowing of edible fish to
spoil before marketing, but is also in
terpreted as forbidding the destruc-
tion of fish too small for marketing.
In particular, it forbids the practice
of dragging nets to shore and leaving
the small fish to die upon the beach,
or the practice of taking crabs to the
packing house before culling, so that
many of the smaller crabs are destroy
ed, or to the case of culling oysters
not on the bed but over bottom where
the small oysters thrown overheard
will not live.
Some fishermen have attempted to
read into Rule IL, which provides that
the fishermen must market all sea
foods taken, authority to sell fish
which are under size or taken during
a closed season. This Office does not
so interpret Rule IL 1t forbids with
holding a part of the catch in order to
affect the price, and also forbids the
release from the net or trap of the
less valuable fish. 1t does not, how
ever, authorize in the Chesapeake Bay
and tributaries the marketing of un-
der-sized fish or the marketing of
fish which cannot be taken under the
State law.
Violation of any of these regula-
tions as interpreted above renders the
of1ender liable to revocation of his
licens, which, unless the license is re-
issued. would prevent his engaging in
fishing until the close of the war"

Her stern lifts high-then with rush

their might
The only monuments that mark the
site
OF sacrifice for honor, freedom, right.
Seven Bells-and all is WE'LL

Each man appears at that last Muster
Roll,
Each man presents mis- now pure, spot
less soul.
Eight Bells-and God is night!

What the New Motor
Vehicle Law Means
E. AUSTIN BAUGHMAN
Commissioner of Motor Vehicles

| have always felt that / have the
cooperation and support of the in
telligent motorist in trying to enforce
as rigidly as possible the penalties
provided for violations of the motor
vehicle law. l feel sure that the in
telligent motorist, as well as the gem
eral public, realizes that the penalties
will never work any hardship upon the
honest law-abiding citizen, but will, on
the contrary, safeguard and protect
him against the reckless and ire
sponsible operator. The new law con-
tains many severe penalties, in some
instances Jail sentences being provid-
ed in lieu of f. upon conviction for
the second offensa. I hope it may be
rarely necessary to impose these heavy
penalties and that all those who drive
machines in Maryland will deem it
their duty not only to observe the law
themselves. but to help others to OBJ
serve it. If this is done, the many
serious and fatal accidents which fill
the newspapers almost daily will be a
thing of the past and the highways of
Maryland will be safe for everybody.
No person may now operate motor
vehicle without a license, even for the
purpose of receiving instructions The
new law provides that everybody who
operates a motor vehicle must have
license to do so. Those learning to
drive must obtain an instruction Ii
cense. This license costs 81 and is
good for thirty days from the date of
issue. At or before the expiration of
that time persons who have an instruc-
ton license must apply for the regu
lar operators or chauffeur's license.
This does not mean that one who has
an instruction license must necessarily
wait for thirty days before he can OBJ
tani an operators or chauffeur's Ii
cense, but it does mean that within
thirty days he must make application
for the permanent license and demon
strate that he is qualified to operate
a motor vehicle. No person is now
licensed unless he first passes an ex-
animation. The old law did not con-
tain any penalty for failing to carry
a registration certificate issued with
the tags. Under the present law the
penalty is from $40 to 500 for failing
to carry the certificate of registration,
except in cases where the provision
is violated through inadvertence In
such cases the minimum fine may be
as low as 81. Another important
change made in the new law is that
requiring all motor vehicles to come
to a full stop not less than FIVE feet
from the rear of any street car headed
in the same direction which has stop
ped for the purpose of taking on or
discharging passengers. The mimi
mum fine for violating this provision is
$40. This provision is now in the
State law for the first time and super
sedes all local ordinances and regu-
lations upon the same subject.

.FREE ENERGY.-

"Garabed" has failed. A committee
of scientists. appointed by Congress
sional resolution, has pronounced a
failure the mysterious machine invent
ed by an Armenian resident of Bos-
ton, and much advertised as a pro-
ducer of free energy" They were
convinced that it was only one more
specimen added to the long list of
perpetual motion machines" with
which inventive "cranks" have occu-
pied themselves from time immemorial
and which practical science pro-
nounces an impossibility.
II is an axiom of science that you
cannot get something for nothing in
the realm of energy, any more than in
the realm of finance. All the machin-
cry evolved by civilized man has
never really produced" any energy;
il has merely transformed certain
kinds of energy into other kinds, which
happened to be more useful for our
purposes. At no point, in any of the
various processes, is there any evil
dence of any gain of power Every
successive step is attended by some
loss of perceptible power.
Actually, the theory is, the quantity
of power never changes. Some we use
for work. the rest disappears in the
form OF dissipated heat, electricity, etc,

best YOU can do is TO obtain and tap
big reservoirs of easily utilized en-
ergy, such as coal mines. petroleum

And yet, are we always to be bound
by such limitation? Granted that we
cannot create energy out of nothing,
will it be forever impossible to tap un-
seen sources Of energy. after the man
ner protested by the Boston inventor?
We know that the world is instinct
with energy, that the whole universe
is energy. Big scientists agree that

THE PROFITEERs.

The intense and pitiless light men
toned by President Wilson in his ad-
dress 10 Congress last May is beat
ing. as he said it would, upon every
man and every action in this tragic
plot of war that is now upon the
stage" II is beating now particular
~ upon the profiteers, as a result of
Trade Commission.
There are strenuous efforts being
made by interests involved to confuse
the situation. II is possible that in
some instances the figures of the Com
mission give the wrong impression,
and that some of the alleged profiteers
have made less money, or made their
money less questionably, than the con-
illusions imply. But the public is not
interested in details. IL is interested
i'm the main fact, which looms up clear
~ enough out OF all the mess of argu-
ment and recrimiuation, that there has
been pro1teering on big and shame
full scale.
Packers. millers, copper men, coal
men, oil men. leather men, steel men,
Gamers. virtually all the big interests
controlling the basic necessaries of
life, seem to have taken advantage of
the war situation to charge "all the
traffic would bear" They have found
their opportunity in a state of eco
nomic confusion which made il pos
sible for them to raise prices on false
pretexts, without the public being able
to prove extortion.
In some industries il seems almost
as If manufacturers. jobbers, whole
salers, and retailers were engaged in
one great conspiracy to persuade con-
sumers that prices were bound TO rise,
and then, having reconciled them to
the idea, raising prices arbitrarily in
fulflment of their own prophecy
"Everything's going up" has been the
trade motto; and so, naturally enough.
everything has gone up.
1t Is time to stop this movement, to
eliminate whatever parts of II are ar
tifcial and dishonest In some in
stances legal prosecution may be
proper Enlightened public opinion
may accomplish good deal. For the
rest. the President himself offered a
sound suggestion in that same speech
TO Congress: The pTofteering that
cannot be got at by the restraints of
conscience and love of country can be
got at by taxation"
There is a good big job of work cut
out for Congress this summer.
