Col. Weant on Conservation Board.

Col. Weant On Conservation Board.
Colonel Edward o. Weant, this city
has been appointed on the ConserVa-
ton Commission by Governor Richie
Mr.. Weant is one of the leading
lawyers of the Carroll county bar and
has been the Democratic leader in the
country for many years. He was
elected States Attorney and made one
of the bst officials the county ever
had.
He will no doubt make an excellent
official and no better selection could
have been made by the Governor.
Mr.. Weant's duties are to see that
our state is kept supplied with game
and fish and also see that the laws
governing all game is strictly adher-
ed to.
Conservation Commission will be
Harrison w. Vickers, Chestertown;
Edward o. Weant, of Westminster;
and Edward S. Plowden, of Bushwood,
st. Mary's county.
Carroll county you can bet will re
ceive here full recognition by Col
Weant in game and fish. The Col has
a full knowledge of tad poles as he
lived at Detour where Pipe Creek
flows through and has always aboun-
ed with an abundance of tad polls,
tarpins, etc, but when it comes to real
game we suppose he can ell sparrow
from a buZzard.

Building Strikes Ended
Over Division of Work
Many Unions in Construction
Branch Will Abide By De-
cisiOn Of Board

WASHINGTON, March 13. - There
Will be no more strikes of building
trades unions growing out of disputes
over division of work
agreement has been reached, it WAS
announced a American Federation Of
Labor headquarters to-day, that the
many unions reprcse ented in construc-
tion work will abide by the decisions
OF representative board now in ses-
sion here, which will settle finally all
troublesome questions over jurisdic-
tion. The assignment of work to the
different trades will continue in effect
Indefinitely and in case further dis
putes arise there will be q resort to
arbitration, as in the present instance
rather than to cessation Of work.
Union officials and representatives Of
the American Institute Of Architects,
meeting with the building trade dele
gates, said the agreement to be given
formal expression by the joint board
was one of the most important in the
history of union labor. With the
elimination of one fruitful cause of
disputes, members Of the conference
said they looked to new record in
construction this summer

Governor Declares Demo-

Free to Choose Best Rep

TRENTON, N. j., March 13.-Thc
secretaries of the states of Illinois, In
diana and Michigan have been asked
by Governor Edward I. Edwards of New
Jersey to remove his name from Presi-
Dental primary ballots in their states.
From Michigan ha scome reply
to the effect that the law of the state
does not permit withdrawal after GER
tification. Whether he will or not,
Goevrnor Edwards must enter the
primaries there.
illinois in the forenoon also wired
to that effect, but later in the day tele-
graphed that the Attorney Generals $
Office had revised It's opinion. and that
Mr.. Edwards's name would be with
drawn.
No word has been received as to the
action Indiana will take on the Gov
crnor's plea. 1t is understood if he
does not run the blame Of Vice Presi-
dent Marshall, his running mate, will be
withdrawn.
In explaining his action yesterday
Governor Edwards said he believed tho
Democratic party should be left free to
choose as its leader the man who most
fittingly represents the principles for
which the party stands.
There are certain questions upon
which | have pronounced and decided
views" he said. "and I shall do all
can to influence the convention to in
corporate in the platform of the party
declarations on those subjects. AS you
we'll know one of them is the matter of
the Eighteenth Amendment to the Con-
stitution. 1t is my mature judgment
should not allow my name to be SUBJ
mittcd to the people in any primary
for the reason stated. Furthermore
wherever I have been placed in nomina-
tion it is my purpose to request the
nominating petition to be withdrawn"
Governor Edwards said he had not
heard the report that a Personal Lib
erty League was to be formed to boom
him for the Presidency.

General Strike Looms
60,000 in Lyons District
Alone and Many Lines of
Industry Suffer

PARIS, March 13.-It is estimated
by officials of the Federation of Labor
to-day that nearly 100000 persons are
on strike in France. In the Lyons
region several thousand in the silk
mills have gone out, bringing the num-
Der at that center to 10000 in the vari-
Gus industries.
In the Department du Nord 10000
coal miners have struck in sympathy
with an equal number in Pas de Calais,
and this has strengthened the hope OF,
the radicals that a general coal strike
may be brought about.
Strikes of from $500 to 5000 build
ing workers are reported from various
regions, amo.ng them Angers and
freer from strikes than most other
parts of France
S-'enty thousand workers in the

came in contact with Admiral Sims
and discussed the subject with him.
"Owing to the intensity Of the sub
marine warfare the Allies were being a
great deal embarrassed over their food
supplies. The submarine sinkings had
about reached maximum. The Allied
losses, believe, were about 100000 to
100000 tons per month.
"rhe food situation in the three
countries, England, France and Italy.
may be summed up by taking the
staple bread. There was in reserve
only enough for a three or four weeks
supply Of bread. The reserve stocks
had got that low. The situation in
France and Italy was even more acute
than in England and the result was
the creation Of tho utmost anxiety
among all the Allied nations.
Owing to the rate Of snkings at
that time the war was at measurable
end, but, as you know, the sinkings
were reduced, and we managed to pull
through"
Chairman Hale asked if the Allies ut
that time had only just enough tonnage
to supply their food requirements.
"Well, the situation was complex" F."
gencies arise sometimes new ways are
found to meet them. Our situation
then was one Of desperation, but we
found here and there resources to ease
it up. We employed different devices,
taking ships off of routes where they
could be best spared and putting them
into the food service. Another aid was
the use of North American markets. in
stead Of using the longer route from
Argentina and South America.
"There were about forty million tons
of Allied shipping available, and of this
about thirty millions were available for
the transportation of munitions and
supplies Of food"
Chairman Haze asked if the war
would have come to an end sooner had
submarines.
81 cannot single out any one thing
as shortening or prolonging a war"
replied Mr.. Hoover. There are maybe
a hundred factors involved in the ques
ton. There is the situation on land
as we'll as sea, and other things. One
factor, for instance, was the weaken
ing Of the morale Of the German
armies by the use of propaganda.
do not mean Allied propaganda, l mean
Bolshevik propaganda. That played
quite part in shortening the war snd
there were numerous factors"
Resuming the reading of his state
ment Admiral Sims complained aga Il
of the alleged delay in sending vessels
to aid in the suppression of the suo-
marine menace in foreign waters and
the holding back of naval vessels to
guard American coasts.
He quoted from the annual report
of Secretary Daniels saying that con
the whole the operations Of the Ger
man submarines against our coast can
be spoken OF as one of the minor Incl
dents of the war"
