Maryland Living Up To Her Tradi-
lions.


The approach of the first anniver-
sary of the entrance of the United
States into the world war finds
Maryland living up to every tradi-
ton of her founders.
When the autocratic tyrants of
the Central Powers shall have been
forced to lay down their arms in
favor of world democracy, the State
that produced the author and birth
place of the National Anthem will
not need to be ashamed of the part
it took in the greatest conflict in the
history of civilization, for Maryland
is one of the foremost leaders among
the states in sending her young men
to the defense of the Colors.
1t is in the hope that this most
enviable reputation may be main
tanned that the Navy recruiting
authorities are bending every effort
to raise the last quota assigned the
State by the Bureau of Navigation.
This quota is composed of Quarter
masters and Carpenters Mates for
the Aviation Branch of the Navy or
Naval Reserve.
Lieutenant NJ A. Leahy, in charge
of Navy recruiting in Maryland, will
also enroll men in the Naval Re
serves and there are very good OPP
portunities for ambitious young men
in this branch where seamen are
especially needed.

THE STATE FLOWER.
Distinguished Honor for Black-cyed
Susan.

Distinguished Honor for Biack-cyed
Susan.
Senator Bomberger introduced
last week a joint resolution what
calls upon the Governor to declare
by proclamation a floral emblem for
the state. In presenting the reso-
luton the Senator, who has made a
study of the subject, stated Mary
land was one of the few states in the
Union that had no state flower. The
resolution calls upon the Governor
to proclaim the Black-eyed susan,
which carries the Maryland colors-
the state flower.
The resolution reads as follows:
Whereas, Sentiment has at all
times been associated with the sover-
eighty of the state, finding its ex-
preston in one or other forms OF
ymbolism, and
Whereas, Floral emblems have
been historically employed to repre-
sent and convey the physical, moral
or patriotic characteristics of people,
and
Whereas, Thirty-eight states OF
the Union have adopted some species
Of the floral indigenous to their soils
to be representatives of them, and
Whereas, The Rudbeckia hirta,
commonly known as Black-eyed
Susan, of the family Compositae,
suborder Liguliforae, by its hardi-
ness and vigor markedly typifies the
traditions of Maryland citizenship;
and by it's modesty and grace the
charm of her womanhood, confirm
ing also in a notable way by its per-
ennial growth and its strong self
perpetuating instinct the motto OF
the state; and
Whereas, This flower is composed
Of and only of the colors OF the
Calvert insignia, the head or crest
of black and petals Of gold; there
fore, be it
Resolved by the General Assem-
bly, of Maryland, That His Excel
lency, the Governor of Maryland, be
and is hereby empowered and Dir
'ected to declare by proclamation on
he first day of June, in the year
918, the Rudbeckia hirta OF Black
,yed Susan as the floral emblem OF
he State of Maryland.

WILSON ADVISES
FEDERAL CONTROL
ASKS CONGRESS FOR AUTHORITY
TO TAKE OVER TELEGRAPH
AND TELEPHONE SYSTEMS.
Action Result of impending Strike on
the Western Union. - Measure
Introduced by Southerner Would
Grant President Power.

MISUNDERSTANDING to author
! OF telegraph and telephone system,
! during the war was approved July l by
| President Wilson, and leaders at the
capitol prepared for its immediate con
| sideratiOn, with a view to action if pos
sible before congress recesses.
Secretaries Baker and Daniels and
Postmaster General Burleson, all of
whom have indorsed the pending bill
by Representative Aswell of Louisiana,
proposing this authority, were invited
TO appear before the house interstate
commerce commission.
The presidents statement was in a
note to Chairman Sims of the commit
tee, approving a letter from Postmaster
Gneral Burleson. There was no di-
rect reference in any of the CORE
spondence to the call sent out by the
Commercial Telegraphers' Union of
America for strike of Western Union
operators on July 8.
The resolution introduced by Repre-
sentative Aswell of Louisiana reads:
THAT the president, If, in his dis
erection it is deemed desirable in order
to insure their continuous operation or
to guard the secrecy of military and
governmental communications, or to
prevent communication by spies or
other public enemies thereon, or for
other military or public reasons. shall
have IN fol-a nd
troll of any telegraph, telephone,
marine cable or radio systems, and
operate the same subject to those con-
ditions of law, so far as applicable,
which are in force as to steam rail-
roads while under federal control"
Postmaster General Burleson, in
letter which the president approved
as stating the reasons truly advised
Chairman Sims that the power and dis
,retion to act, as proposed in the reso-
ution, seems imperative to safe
guard public interests" The post |
master general added:
"At this moment the paralysis of a
arge part of the system of electrical
is threatened with pos
ible consequences prejudicial to our
Military preparations and other pub
ic activities that might prove serious
+ disastrous. We are reminded that
here is not a nation engaged in the
var that entrusts its military or other
to unofficial agencies
deem it, therefore, my duty not
lerely to approve, but to urge, the
assage of the resolution, in order that
he president may act, if necessary to
the interests of the country
uring the prosecution of the war
