Racing Commission Named.

Racing Commission Named.
Annapolis
Governor Ritchie announced the
appointment of the three members of
the Racing Commission. These are:
STUART OLIVIER, publisher of
the Baltimore News.
JOSEPH P. KENNEDY, of the
Kennedy Foundry Company.
E. CLAY TIMANUS, former Mayor
of Baltimore
The executive had these appoint
ments under consideration for some
time, preferring to go slow until he
was certain he had secured a COM
mission satisfactory to all concerned.
That Mr.. Kennedy would be one of
the members was generally under
stood, and he was spoken of as chair
man, but it was stated he had no
desire to head the commission. 1t
was also known that the Governor
was favorably inclined toward Mr.
Timanus, but the appointment of Mr..
Olivier came as a surprise, his name
not having been heretofore men
toned in connection with the COM
mission.
Mr.. Olivier has been named as the
chairman and his term fixed at six
years. He is a Democrat
Mr.. Kennedy, the second Demo-
cratic member, is to serve two years.
Mr.. Timanus, the minority men,
Der of the commission, is appointed
for term of four years.
The successors to Messrs. Kennedy
and Timanus, to be named at the ex-
piration Of their respective terms,
will be appointed for six years, so
that there will be a new member
named every two years. This COM
mission is not subject to confirmation
by the Senate.
The appointees, upon being notified
by the Governor, held an informal
conference at which they decided to
elect J. Fred Hayward, well-known
newspaper man, secretary to the COM
mission. His salary is to be fixed
by the commission.
The salary of the chairman is fixed
by law at $4,000, and that of each of
the other members at $4,000.
The commission will exercise SUI
pervision over racing, issue permits
and fix the dates. A meeting is to
be called by the chairman in the near
future, when an organization will be
effected. Permanent headquarters
have not yet been selected.

London.-Whether the world will be
plunged into another Armageddon de-
oends upon the stomach of the Russian
peasant for further battle. Any other
statement of the case would be an
understatement This is the gist Of a
conversation with q man close to
Downing street who has perhaps the
sanest birdseye view of the entire
situation. He said:
I'm betting Russia Is as tired Of
war as the rest of us are. But it
would be folly to ignore the opposite
possibility. That possibility would
mean that Europe would become red
right up to the Rhine-red, not with
Bolshevism, perhaps, but with the new
powerful Imperialism which would
wrest every vestige of victory from
the hands Of the Allies"
While this represents the view Of
responsible heads of the British gov
ernment it is possible to state that the
special governmental departments en-
tertain even gloomier views Authori-
tative opinions obtained in military
circles describe the situation on the
continent as. serious as at any time
since 1914 Certain heads of special
government departments have been or
dered to give up their plans for August
holidays and to hold themselves in
readiness for most active service.

mistice proposals direct to Moscow,

Warsaw cabinet, reached London, but

the face of conflicting reports from
Germany the belief is growing that the
Spartacists of Prussia are ready to

advance sufficiently far into Poland.
After the armistice with Germany in
1918 large supplies of stores and mu-
nitions were gathered in East Prussia
for delivery to the Allies. Much of
these supplies, 1t is believed, was sent
to the Russian frontier recently, un-
doubtedIy with the intention of prepar-
ing for such situation as has arisen.
The cooperation Of the German mon
archists, with the Spartacists welcom-
ing the Soviets, Is regarded as too
strong probability to be doubted.

WILL Be PUSHED AS
DECISION RESULT

WASHINGTON, March 1S- Trade
organizations exchanging trade in.
formation were placed in the category
with trusts by the department OF JUS
tice. which, following the recent court
decision in the hardwood lumber case
at Memphis. announced Wednesday
night it's intention to proceed against
all commercial groups conducting op.
erations similar to those of the hard
wood lumber men.
While the lumber case was of civil
character. Assistant Attorney General
Ames, who directed the prosecution,
declared it had clearly established the
laws application. 1t was on this bas'
is. he said, that the government would
direct the prosecution of trade bodies
believed to have operated in combi
nation to restrain trade.
1t was understood that the depart
ment had under consideration data
concerning more than thirty such
groups. The Memphis decision gave
strength to the governments case in
such suits as the action against the
cement manufacturers, the Chicago
Mosaic and Thing company. which in
wolves activities Of the Chicago Mantle,
and Tile Contractors association, and
the Chicago labor union cases, Off
Gals asserted.
In the latter case, an entirely new
principle would be established in the
relationship between capital and Ia
Dor if a decision favorable to the gov
eminent was rendered, it was ex
planned.
Mr. Ames said that no trade orga Ii
Zation could feel immune from the
antitrust statutes through having filed
I with the department papers defining
its operations. He made it clear thai
the depa rment had not thus committed
itself to show them leniency.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism
Discoverer Tells Druggist Not to Take
Cent Of Anyone's Money Unless
AIenrhu Completely Banishes All
Rheumatic Pains and Twinges.

Mr.. James II. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
aeaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the &C
cumulated impurities, commonly called
uric acid deposits, were dissolved in
the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
, physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded prescription that
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism
from his system.
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took it, with what might be
called marvellous success. After years
of urging he decided to let sufferers
everywhere know about his discovery
through the newspapers. Your drug
sist has been appointed agent for
Allenrhu in this vicinity with the un-
derstanding that he will freely return
the purchase money to all who state
they received no benefit.-Advertise
