DAIRY COMBINE
Opposes Price Fixing by
Milk Producers
Association.

Strong opposition to the recently
organized Maryland and Virginia
Milk Producers Association and its
expressed object to fix the price
of milk sold in Washington was
voiced yesterday by DR.. William Z.
Fowler, District health officer.
81 believe that every individual
producer of milk has a right to
place his wares on the market at
any reasonable price he shall deem
proper" said DR.. Fowler.
The object of this organization
is to take the milk produced by
the farmers and sell it at a price
determined by it's membership.

project"

that, despite the fact that produc-

PLAN CARNIVAL
TO FIX STREET
Chevy Chase Women to
Raise Money When
Taxes Fail. !

Because their husbands failed to
raise money enough by special as
.essment to pave Thornapple street
in Chevy Chase, Md. the feminine
residents Of that section have taken
matters into their own hands. As
the chief feature of their fund-rais-
ing efforts they have completed
plans for a Chevy Chase carnival,
which will be held Wednesday ana
Thursday evenings of this week on
the grounds of the Clark home at
lThornapple street and Brookville
pike.
Thornapple street is the main
artery for a considerable section or
new homes east of the Brookville
pike. but it's roadway has been
isplendid example of natures mud
ldiest. The women, who have suf-
tered most from this hope to raise
funds enough to aid the tax pro-
Iceeds in making the street naVigaole
for automobiles as well as to save
their rugs from the wear and tear
Iof muddy masculine feet. The pro-
trram for their lawn festival is an
elaborate one and a special commit
ltee has arranged an automoolle
barking space with bottom nearer
the top than the roadway of Thorn
ample street. Dancing will be q
special feature for both evenings.
III the weather man fails to COOP
lerate. the carnival will be held on
THE first clear evening.

NEAR SOCIETY
FACING BLOCK
Ruling of St. James Court
Worries Prospective
Tourists.

Society leaders of Washington
yesterday were anxiously wonder
ing whether or not the next occu-
pant of the White House intended
to resume official receptions. Their
anxiety was based on the announce
ment. from abroad. that 1t had been
decided by the Court OF St. James
that no more American women
would be received at court who had
not first been received at the White
House.
A function. similar to that in
vogue in England. has never been
practiced by any of the Presidents
and the nearest approach to II would
be either a private affair, to which
invitations were extended by the
Chief Executive, or the Presidential
receptions. The later, which before
the war. took place but twice a year.
were supposed to place the hall
mark of society upon the recipients
of invitations. The list of guests,
however, was made out along much
broader lines than for the English
court. and often were bestowed as
much as a sort of political favor,
as for any other reason.
Persons who were not lucky
enough to have been on the White
House list prior to 1918, when the
receptions were discontinued, mus:
await the next Inauguration before
making plans to enter British royal
society.
