garded AS Highly Desir-
able For Purpose
JOY OF OUTDOOR LIVING

The announcement made a short
time ago by Adjutant General Reck-
ord, of Maryland, relative to the time
and place selected for this summers
encampment has been a subject of
considerable favorable discussion
among the members of Company M"
First Infantry, Maryland National
Guard.
After considering the merits of sew
eral sites that would provide the nee
essary facilities for a large camp of
this nature, Edgewood Arsenal was
selected because of its desirable To-
cation and splendid surroundings.
Edgewood Arsenal is the home of
the Chemical Warfare Service. and
was constructed and improved at a
cost of fifty million dollars 1t is a
permanent Government Reservation
and one of the finest in the United
States. 1t is located about twenty
one miles north of Baltimore, on the
main line to Philadelphia, and is most
delightfully."- situated overlooking an
inlet to the Chesapeake Bay.
Camp Site Has 19,000 Acres
The entire Reservation contains ten
thousand acres with fine improved
roads and every modern facility. The
site selected for the camp is desir-
able in every respect, as it is ad-
joining to the permanent quarters of
the garrison, and bordering On the
lay, where one will find a splendid
bathing beach. from which the water
slopes off to a distance of several
miles, few places provide better ia
cilities for boating, swimming and
water sports OF every description.
The men will of course live under
canvas during their period in camp.
and estimates are being prepared TO
provide, wooden floors, electric lights.
and every convenience for the com
fort and pleasure of the men attend
ing this camp.
An additional feature of this camp
will re the opportunity to see the in
teresting experimental work carried
on by the Chemical Warfare Service,
who are at this place continually
carrying on research work in these
agencies of modern warfare.
Comradesliip OF Camp Life
Never tefore has this State been
allie to obtain a camp site so desir-
allie and interesting, and it is felt
that this summer at camp will always
re associated ty the soldiers of our
State with the memories of pleasant
happenings. There is a comradeship
develored in camp life of this char
acter that is one of the finest expert
ences that a red Hooded young Am
erican can enjoy. The joy of out
door living under such delightful con-
iitions. with just enough military ac-
tivities to add an interesting and in
structive value TO the camp viii be
fully appreciated by all who have the
opportunity to go to the National
Guard Camp at Edgewood this sum
mer.
The young men of Annapolis who
feel that they would like to attend
this Camp with Company M should
see Captain Murphy the Commanding
Officer of the local company, before
the enlistments are complete and the
full number enlisted to take along
to camp.

The opinion of the court was written by Chief Justice Wheeler, Justice Beach dissented.
 Michael Green, national president of the United Hatters of North America; Martin Lawler. national secretary and treasurer; Jeremiah Scully, president of Local Union No. 10 at Danbury, and John O'Hara, sec- retary of the local. are specifically named as the defendants in the case Local No. II of Danbury.

Hat Shop, Inc, of New York. The judgment of S5,139.75 assessed against the union officers is the amount the Rosenwald-WiInphe elmer factory lost through the failure of McLachlan to make deliveries, as it was obliged to buy its unfinished hats elsewhere, at a higher price.

Hogan Would Build New
 Street To Save Cellars
 From OK Stream Overflow

To eliminate frequent floods of streets and cellars on the west side of North Main street from Vanguard avenue, two plans have been evolved by Alderman William H. Hogan and City Engineer James McE1roy.
 The propositions advanced, Alder man Hogan said today, will be placed before the residents of the north end district Thursday evening at Bethany chapel where they will be thoroughly explained. The first of the two plans Is to deepen the channel of the over flow brook from the OK Stream reser- voir the cause of the trouble, in order that all the water that would usually flood the streets and cellars may drain Into it.
 The second plan is the construction of a new street through the property involved, some 450 feet west of Main street, and the construction of a huge storm sewer through the center of the new street, thus eliminating the open brook on private property, declared a menace to health. This storm sewer would empty into Parrots pond or trunk storm sewer.
 "The brook which carries the over 1owfrom the OK Stream has long been a source of property damage and a menace to public health" Alderman Hogan said today. "On July 3, in troduced a measure into the Common Council ordering the channel of the brook deepened. Residents had com plained to me that the brook over their cellars were flooded with rain and brook water. The brook is now a breeding place for disease and a men ace to the health of the residents.

WORLDS FUTURE NONE TOO SECURE
 WARNS WRITER

London, Aug. Sir Rider flag gard is of the opinion that western civilization is by no means so secure as many westerners believe.
 "we have an idea that the west is going on forever" he said, featuring before the Norwich Rotary Club. "but can we be quite sure of that? Those who have studied and know the east; it's enormous power of reproduction; it's simple habits of life on the land, and it's system of moralities which make everywoman think it her duty to have children, know that. 1t con- tains an enormous potential power which must one day break out.
 "Whether it can be curbed do not know, but I have grave doubts. I shall never forget my friend, Theo- dore Roosevelt, saying when talking Of Japan, Look out for your Australia; 1t will be the first place to go.'
 "If once Japan secures the control of China the outlook for the Western World will be, very cloudy"
 The speaker said he thought our existing civilizations in the end prob ably would go the way of other CIVIL zation that had preceded it.
 "Who would have thought dozen years ago." he asked, "that there would be such horrors in the world as we have recently seen in Russia. Even in Ireland it has been revealed that the savage Is uncommonly near the skirt of civilized man, and so always ft will be-"

With the deepening of the brook great deal of trouble would have been eliminated. The matter was referred to the Public Works department but ao action was taken.
 'I have been in conference with City Engineer McElroy and together we have worked out a scheme that dents of the district. The proposed street would be about 450 feet fIom Main street. Through the street the storm sewer would be constructed and the trouble would be eliminated for good. There is but one house i. he way of the project, but I believe that It could be easily moved to the eat pr west of the proposed street. O the two plans I believe that the stree cut would be the better, because al open stream would be a target for al of constant trouble and expense be- cause careless people would fill it up with refuse that the city would have to remove. However, if the people of the district do not favor the street plan the deepening of the brook will be resorted to by the city.''
 The proposed street, according to A1derman's Hogan's plans, would b. gin at Vanguard street, west of Man line. It would run through Lourme street, Marcel street. Woodsde ave nue, Woodmont avenue, Glendalt avenue, Englewood avenue, JewetS avenue to Golden Rod avenue
 Plans and blueprints are ready ana Alderman Hogan urges every inter. ested taxpayer of the district to at depend on the outcome of the confer ence.

there was a shortage of fhats in the rough" and the Rosenwald-Wimp- heimer shop and many other finish 1ng' shops found 1t difficult to obtain an adequate supply of unfinished hats.
 The national officers of the hatters union wrote to the officers of the locals at Danbury and Norwalk asking the local to request union shops mak- ing rough hats to give preference to union finishing shops in making de- liveries. McLachlan was one of the manufacturers approached.
 The supreme court finds that the action of the union officers in ad- vising makers of crude hats to favor union shops in delivering unfinished hats was Legitimate and commend able" and was properly in line with their duty of bettering the interests of members of their union. However, in the case of McLachlan, the court finds the union officers suggested that he withhold deliveries to the d-Wimphe3mer shop after they became aware that a definite contract existed! Hence the court finds them responsible for the loss incurred by the plaintiff although the evidence showed that McLachlan will Hngly cancelled his contracts on sug- gestion of the union officers, as he knew that he could resell his pro- duct at a higher price than that con tracted for. The decision of Judge Maltbie in the superior court of Fair field County, who found that the de- fendants were within their rights, is reversed by the supreme court.

Three deta achments of shop workers were sent by eastern railroads to the Western, and Virginia railroads Tor use in handling shop work for trains in the coal mining districts. It was estimated that a total of 1900 men would be sent. from the II roads in the New York district to the relief of coal carriers.
 A statement by the federal depart ment of agriculture yesterday said that the railroad strike had not af- fected shipment of perishable food four railroads brotherhoods sent a telegram to President Harding ask ing for 8 conference at which they would state their views of the strike situation. They said:
 The plain intention of the railroad executives to smash the shopcraft union is resulting in more and more of the locomotives and equipment getting into disrepair and the dangers of a most hazardous occupauon are being daily increased. We fear that a continuation of these conditions will inevitably result in our members, as a matter of self-protection being drawn into the controversy ana we greatly deplore such a contingency
 A statement issued last night by the association of railway executives, denied that impairment of locomo- lives and cars had reached a stage which would justify any fear by the public.
 Six strike sympathizers at Des Moines; Iowa, kidnapped a youth em- ployed in the Rock Island shops, beat him and robbed him of s92 pay he had just received A stick of dyna- mite was thrown into cider In1iI, adjoining the Frisco round2n ouse at Hugo Oklahoma.
