The Maryland Racing Commission
amended its rules so as to include the
licensing by the Commission OF train
ers and jockeys The rule will become
effective June 20, the Commissions
regulations providing that amendments
and new rules do not become operative
without a 3O-day notice.
The Commission adopted the licens-
ing rule by divided vote. Commits
sioners Latane and Timanus favored
It; Chairman Olivier continued his op-
position. When the matter of licensing
was opposed by Joseph p. Kennedy as
well as by Mr.. Olivier Mr.. Timanus
has always favored licensing, Some
weeks ago Mr.. Kennedy resigned, Mr
Latane being appointed in his place
1t was the new members vote that re-
versed the majority in the Commits
sion.
This action was taken following the
receipt of an opinion by Attorney Gen.
eral Armstrong, in which Mr. Arm
strong ruled that the Commission
should issue the licenses in question
but in which he also said that the ac-
ceptance by the various tracks of the
jockeys and trainers so licensed is not
mandatory upon the tracks. In the At
;orney Generals view each track is at
liberty to reject, If it so desires, a
jockey or trainer licensed by the Com
mission.

HARDING SAYS PUT

Urges Cooperation Between
Business and Industry
REVIEWS WAR VETERANS
Weeps For Soldier Dead-Prsys For
National Righteousness That
viii Make Such Things
Impossible

New York-A nation so righteous
and so Just that I'VE shall never be
called to make war so long as God and
men rule together" was the prayer OF
President Harding as he reviewed the
survivors Of the World War at re-
view in Brooklyn.
ut must not be again." was his
solemn declaration earlier in the day
when he attended a memorial service
for 5000 war dead on the great army
piers in Brooklyn.
The same theme-spoken before the
living and before the dead-brought
tears to his eyes and to the eyes OF
those who had followed him through a
days program crowded with events.
At luncheon of the Academy Of
Political Science and at a dinner eele-
brating the one hundred and twenty.
NTH anniversary Of the New York
Commercial he had expounded the
need Of putting the Government on a
business basis, and of reconstructing
the nations business and industry
On the part of the Administration.
Mr.. Harding promised that govern.
ment interference with business would
be reduced to a minimum, while gov
eminent cooperation with all properly
conducted business would be expanded
and oroadened. He declared his pur-
pose to reverse the tendency in some
quarters ito regard business as dis
honest until 1t should prove itself hon.
est and TO regard bigness in business
as a crime"
Speaking extemporaneousiy at the
conclusion of his prepared address,
the President said:
II would like for you captains of in
dustry to know an aspiration of the
present Administration-it is to inau-
gurate an area of understanding. |

government and the people, an under
standing between nations.

LA PLATA. MARYLAND, MAY p. 1921
STATE
CAPITAL

Ritehie Protests Federal Road Bill.
Annapolis
Senator Townsend having declined,
on behalf of the Senate committee on
roads, the invitation of John N. Mack.
ali, chairman of the State Roads Com.
mission, to make an inspection Of part
Of the Maryland Highway system, Gov.
ernor Ritehie wrote to the Senator, ex-
pressing regret at the decision.
Senator Townsend is the author
Of a bill now pending, which would
provide Federal aid for road construc-
tion in the various States. but his bill
contains two provisions which are
counter to the Maryland policy and
when, in the opinion Of State authori-
ties, would be prejudicial to road con.
struction in this State.
These provisions are:
1. Appointment of Federal com
mission to determine along what route
Federal-aid roads would be constructed
and to designate the type OF construc.
tion.
q A width OF 66 feet with a weax
ing surface OF 30 feet, for Federal-aid
roads.
Mr.. Maokall designed the Senatorial
inspection trip to show what has been
accomplished by the Maryland plan
and the Governor says in his letter to
Senator Townsend that the States con
tention could be better appreciated aft
er an inspection of what has been ac-
complished by the Maryland method
The Governors letter says, in part
I'VE have always taken advantage
of Federal aid. Our annual road ap
preparation has always been based
upon it. It would be a most
serious thing to the people Of this
State and to the further extension of
our State road system, and to the
people of other States who use our
81 stem, Il We do not receive Federal
aid this and next year
81 agree with the general idea of a
Federal Highway Commission, and
think that such commission should
have the right to approve or 10 veto
any road which the State desires to
build through Federal aid feel,
however, that Federal and State au
thorities ought to cooperate in select
ing the roads to be built and the type
of construction.
"The Townsend Bill requires a mini
mum road width of 20 feet. Our sys-
TEN has been built up on a width OF
about Is feet. Generally speaking,
this has proved entirely sufficient to
our traffic. Wherever it has proved
insufficient we are widening the roads
up to 20 feet.
THE 15-foot road costs us from $780,
900 to sS5, 900 mile, and an additional
FIVE feet would add from $4,000 to
$12, 900 per mile to the cost.
I'VE think that this additional money
could be better spent on additional
roads. We ask that the Federal
Highway Commission and the Mary
land authorities cooperate in deciding
on the width Of our roads, rather than
have the law prescribe a hard and fast
rule !"
There is another Federal.aid bill
before Congress, introduced by Rep
resentative Dowell This bill has the
approval of the American Association
of State Highway Oficials.
