Gets $4,000 Damages.

In suit for damages against the Wash
ington and Rockville Electric Railway
Company. Mrs. Mary P. Sullivan, of Friend
ship Heights, this county, was given judg-
ment for $4,000 by a jury in the Circuit
Court at Marlboro last Friday afternoon.
The suit was brought in the Circuit Court
here but. at the instance of the company,
which made affidavit that it could not
have fair and impartial trial, the case
was removed to Prince Georges county.
The suit was based on an accident which
befell Mrs. Sullivan at Friendship Heights
on October 26, 1917. Mrs. Sullivan had
come from Washington on one of the COM
pany's cars and after alighting had started
across the tracks towards her home, when
she was struck by Washington
car. 1t was claimed that Mrs. Sullivan
received serious and permanent injuries
and the accident was due to negligence
on the part of the company.
The plaintiff was represented by Robert
B. Peter, of this town, and M. Hampton
Magruder. of Marlboro. and the company
by William H. Talbot, of this town, and
Robert W. Wells and Attorney Bowen, of
Washington.
Growing out of the same accident a
second suit is pending against the COM
pany, in which Simon E. Sullivan, husband
of Mrs. Mary Polk Sullivan, claims dam
ages for loss of his wifes services and for
expenses incurred as a result of her in
juries.
The week preceding the decision in the
above case. Mr.. Peter obtained judgment
of $4,000 in the Circuit Court of Frederick
county. Md, in favor of Thomas & Co., Of
Gaithersburg. against a fertilizer manu-
featuring company, of Baltimore, for br each
of contract.

Every citizen of the United States is
member Of the firm, partner of Uncle
Sam. No one has been given the right to
withdraw from the partnership simply be-
to withdraw. The duties of partnership
were cheerfully assumed during the war !:
the shoulder-to- shoulder attitude of all
classes and sects made combined action
the power that it was. and won the war
Good times are on the way. The heavy
government expenditures-the expendi-
lures of the firm-are daily decreasing.
and the necessity for the huge quantities
of war supplies that each day Of the war
brought about has stopped as suddenly as
il began.
1t is true that for many months the war
costs will still run high. The bills matur-
ing for supplies already used, besides those
contracted for, the continuing costs Of
building ships planned and under course OF
construction and the maintenance of the
army and navy mean that the govern
ment's war bills are not all paid. In fact,
the government has been anticipating the
Victory Liberty Loan for several months
by borrowing from the banks to pay cur
rent maturing bills. BY the time the Loan
is received 1t will virtually all have been
expended. so there is no argument neces-
sary in regard to the urgency Of the need.
But the bills now being paid are in
large part those made during the conflict
last months purchases. The end of the
war has meant increased prosperity for the
United States and the firm. Great Britain
and Europe feel the heavy burdens result
ing from over four years of warfare their
tremendous debts, loss of man power and
disoreanized labor conditions have resulted
in greater opportunity for Uncle Sam.
America energies from the struggle with
a loss of lie Of only 10000, with business
on the boom and with a war debt that is
owed to the firm. to citizens Of the United
States. This last fact is a significant one.
Money that is owed by partners in pros
porous firm is never doubtful debt, for
the natural flow insures its payment.
Are you live member Uncle Sam needs
the active support Of every one Of his part
ners. Take stock in the firm. Buy Victory
