Ballot Never Completed
The 44th ballot was never .complet
ed. In the great chorus of affirma
tion, it was swept away as unneces
sary. Many Of the changes which
would have been made had the vote
been carried through, were never re-
corded and in the face Of that ballot
Governor Cox received officially 702h
votes but they were never totaled
for he was nominated by unanimous
voice of the convention.

WASHINGTON-Many Americans
Of German or Austrian descent in
United States. are inquiring OF
any source of information whether
the time has arrived when their
relatives and friends in those coun-
tries can come to America and what
restrictions are imposed upon such
immigration.
Some are patiently waiting until
all restraint is lifted when the
United States and Germany shall
have made peace. Others betray
impatience because nearly two years
have elapsed since the termination
OF hostilities and the ban has not yet
been raised.
Those who appeal to the state De-
partment have been informed that
citizens Of Germany and Austria may
obtain admittance to the United
states only through circumstances
OF compelling appeal" under reg
ulations laid down by that depart
ment. They are told that wartime
restrictions against enemy aliens
still hold good and that Germans
and Austrians must apply to Ameri-
can diplomatic or consular agents
abroad or TO the State Department
direct for wise of passports permit
ting temporary admission to this
country. Under unusual circum-
stances the passports may be contin-
ued indefinitely after the aliens
reach the United States.
Germans and Austrians who may
obtain authorization to enter the
United States must fall within the
following c-lassiications:
Business men who can prove con-
clusively that their visit will be of
ADVANTAGE to American business in
terests. In such cases letters of rec
ommendation must accompany the
application from an American firm
establishing the necessity for the
visit.
Aged parents of ~naturalized Amer
lean citizens when 1t is clearly proven
that such are dependent upon their
naturalized American children for
their support.
American born women who have
married German or Austrian citi-
GEMS.
Relatives of ~naturalized American
citizens who can prove their DEEPEN
dency upon such citizens.
Service in the German army is
held to preclude admission of any
German citizens who might claim
right Of entrance under any OF the
foregoing circumstances.
Because Of the absence from Ger
many and Austria of American dip
lomatic and consular officials pend
ing the establishment of peace be-
tween the United States and those
countries German and Austrian citi-
zens find it difficult to obtain an

desiring IN visit the United States
must either go to a country in which
there are American diplomatic or

While the weather was anything

was heralded over the universe over
1000 years ago was repeated yester-
day everywhere in special service and
musical programs in the various

URGES SHADE TREES
FOR PUBLIC ROADS
Governor Ritcfie Will Ask State
Roads Commission To En-
courage Planting
ARBoR DAY BEST TIME

Governor Ritehie. who has an eve
for the artistic. will ask the state
Roads Commission to encourage the
planting Of shade trees along the pub
lie roads. 1t is not designed that the
states funds shall be expended oirthis
project, but at the coming and al fu-
ture Arbor Day exercises residents
along the highways will find favor
with the Chief Executive of the state
if they will plant sapplings along the
highways in their neighborhood. The
Governors project undoubtedly will
receive approval all over the State.
What magnificent thing il will be
for the next generation" says the Gov
ernor. ito have our roads lined with
branching oaks, elms and other shade
trees. Not only will these trees be or
namental, but they will also be factors
in the elimination of dust and dirt.
With shade trees lining her roads,
Maryland would be the most artistic
state in the union As we have the
best roads we have also the beginning
of the most artistic vistas of the roads,
l trust that residents along our public
highways will seize Arbor Day as an
occasion for the transplanting OF oak
sapplings from nearby woods tofthe
sides of the roads"
The original act, passed during the
administration of the late Governor
Crothers, for improvement of public
roads, contemplated the planting of
trees and the installation of horse
troughs at regular intervals With the
supplanting of the horse by the auto
mobile and the truck, the troughs are
no longer considered necessary. The
calls upon the funds absolutely neces-
sary for road construction to meet the
demands of farmers and of other users
Of the public roads here so exhausted
the appropriations that no funds have
been available for planting of trees.
Senator Harrison, of Worcester
county, the states foremost advocate
of improved roads and who is also the
leading horticulturist of the state, has
long advocated the planting of trees
along the public roads. He has recog-
nized the lack of funds available for
the purpose He applauds Governor
Ritchie's suggestion of the planting of
trees along public roads on Arbor Day
AMI on any other day. He contem-
plates the donation Of sufficient num-
Der of trees and their planting at his
own expense on one mile of an inn
proved road at some central point in
the state with a view to demonstrate
ing the beautifying effect of tree-lined
roads. Mr.. Harrison, who is chairman
Of the Senate Committee on Roads and
Highways, would make his donation
and the planting of trees effective at
once, but for the scarcity of labor.

not believe it, especially because of
the delightful weather that prevail
ed Saturday. and generally because
the sharps had so often gone wrong
during the late winter season. But
the aforesaid new man on the jon,

TONGERS LOSE FIGHT
FOR HOLLAND PT. BAR

Local and general bills were
slaughtered by the Senate Commit
tees Saturday during the rush hours
Many of these had their origin in
the Senate. but not a few were sent
over by the House. The bill. which
would give tongers a crack at Hol-
land Point bar, lower Anne Arundel
county. where the oysters are proli-
fic. comes in regularly every two
years. 1t got as far as the third read
ing file of the Senate Saturday when
the Eastern Shoremen got busy.
When the latter got through lambast-
ing this measure it had only one
friend and he was the author, Sena-
tor Brady. of Anne Arundel, who
made a vigorous defense of his bill.
To get a chance to reconsider the
vote by which the bill was tabled he
voted with all the other senators so
that the motion was unanimously car
ried. 1t was the second oyster fight
of the session. the use of patent
tongs precipitating the first on Fri
day.
