NO CITY STREETS
To De REPAIRED
UNDER NEW PLAN
State Roads Commission Informs
County Commissioners OF The
Reason Annapolis Was Not
Included With incorporated
Towns
LOCAL THoROUGHFARES
ARE IN PASSABLE STATE

Annapolis will not benefit by the
plan of the State Roads Commission
to pave streets through certain in
corporated towns through which State
highways pass, at least not this year.
The County Commissioners, it will
be recalled, upon hearing of such a
plan, recently passed a resolution
calling on the State Commission to
include Annapolis in the group of
towns to receive such improvements,
directing special attention to the re-
pair of West street, one of the con-
Meeting links of the Annapolis Balti-
more boulevard, and the State high
way through Southern Maryland. In
response to this resolution, the county
officials have received the following
letter from Chairman ]. N. Mackall.
of the Roads Commission, which ex-
plains the situation:
Gentlemen:
Replying to your resolution of July
s. beg to advise you that this Com
HllSSlOH udS ucClueu " USE llic uuCA-
pended portion of the Acts of 1918
TO build through such incorporated
towns as have had no paving at this
time, and while the pavement in An
napolis is rough, it is in a passable
condition, and for this reason, it was
not included in the towns to be paved.
''Very truly yours.
(Signed), - N. MACKALL,
Chairman"
The letter was read before the
Commissioners at the regular meet
ing of the Board on Tuesday, and un-
der the circumstances, the matter will
rest for a while.
More Road Questions
Two more questions pertaining to
county highways came before the
Commissioners at yesterdays meeting.

horn. have joined the camp of Boy

above Round Bay. on an eminence in
full view of the Severn.
The boys are in charge OF four
men sent by the Baltimore Boy
Scouts. and they are enjoying a
healthful outing. Army tents are pro-
vided with flooring of boards. and the
dining tent. which is airy and COM
modious, is screened, as is the kitchen
at the camp There are two fine chefs,
and the meals are well cooked, and
wholesome, and the boys are provided
with plenty of milk from the Riggs
farm. Every convenience is furnish
ed and the camping life is an ideal one
for the boys who only pay one dollar
day for the pleasure.

EAST BROOKLYN IN
SMOULDER|NG RUINS
Great Fire Spread BY Oil On
Monday Has Spent It's
Destructiveness
PITIFUL SCENES FOLLOW

Like craters OF spent volcanoes the
distended oil tanks at Wagner's Point
are still smouldering as result of
the disastrous fire OF Monday. Fur
ther danger of the destructive flames
has passed What is considered little
short of a miricle was the fact that
gosoline tanks belonging to the Texas
Oil Company and situated not more
than $50 yards from the seething
tanks were left unscathed. What adds
to the mystery is that the wind early
yesterday morning, when the flames
seemed to be licking the sky, was
blowing the blaze i'm the direction of
the highly infiammable liquid. With
in a radius OF several hundred yards
OF the tanks, oil. like lacquer, is spread
over the surface and indicates the
area covered by the burning liquid
when IL boiled over. The rails OF the
branch of the Pennsylvania Railroad
that serves that section were Redeemed
by the heat and were twisted and dis
torted to such an extent that they re-
sembled colossal worms.
The residents of East Brooklyn
spent a sleepless night. Many of them
were aged women and children, and
as they gathered about their belong
ings, which had been hurriedly taken
from their homes before they left. they
presented a pitiful scene. One 60
year-old woman, who said she was
Mrs Stein. endangered her life in
saving her polly" a canary and a
little white poodle and a litter of
puppies. She had gathered up as
much of her household effects as she
and her aged husband could carry and
had gone about block away when
she thought of her pets. Immediately
she hurried TO her home. and, despite
the protests of the police, she entered
the building. although not half block
away a huge tank was threatening to
hurl its burning contents over wide
area.

W, B. AND A. FARES
RECEIVE CRITICISM
Seabrook Commuters Clu b
Claims Rates Adopted Violate
Interstate Commerce Law
FORMAL PROTEST FILED

Increased rates of fare as allowed
by the Washington. Baltimore and
Annapolis Electric Railway is in the
legal limelight again.
The Commuters Club of Seabrook,
Maryland. filed yesterday with the
Interstate Commerce Commission a
petition against the increased tariff
on round trip and on commuters
fares, put in effect by the Washing
ton, Baltimore and Annapolis Elec-
trio Railway on July IL. The in
crease is denounced by the petition
ers as unjust, unfair. discriminatory
and in violation of the Interstate Com
merce law" In their petition, the
& A. and the w. r. & f. are joint
carriers. They advertise mid-city ter
minal and sell round-trip tickets be-
tween Washington, Baltimore and An-
l. c. c.; but these roads violate this
act by advertising to Washington, the
commutation tickets being good 10 the
District Line only.
THE raise is unfair because the
W., b. & A., in 1919. paid 71s per
cent. IN dividend on common stock
(watcr and ALL, and has a surplus
OF 10 per cent. of $100.500 in Lib
erty Bonds; it has bought and paid
for many valuable pieces of property
from its earnings.
"The W., B. & A. officials admit
the road is prosperous, yet it was
granted this increase in fares, rang
ing from per cent. to 100 per cent,
while it's bankrupt competitor, The
Annapolis Short Line. received only
20 per cent raise in fare. Such
decisions cause unrest and suspicious
of integrity, as the W.. b. & A. knew
the. decision two days in advance,
which shows there was either leak
or great expectations.
"The W., b. e. A. was granted 3
cents a mile. a fare practically the
same as the steam roads, which cost
seven times as much train per mile
as does an electric car. 1t is ingrati-
tude to raise the soldiers fare from
Washington to Camp Meade from $1.05
to $154; the W., b. & A. profited by
its subsidy, the company leasing 6.O00
acres of land to the government for
Camp Meade. In 1917, when Camp
Meade had thousands of soldiers, the
w, B. & A. operating expenses were
only AZ 1-3 per cent. of its operating
revenues. The W., b. & A. solh last
year $1S1.311 worth of power it pur-
chased. It's contract for 5 cents car
fare with the W., r. & e. C. runs for
more than 10 years"
