Today is the 127th anniversary of the
convening here of the Second Conti-
mental Congress. which unanimously
elected George Washington COM
mander-in-chief of all the armies
raised or to be raised for the defense
of American liberty. The session was
also marked by the passage of a petit
ton TO King George III, the rejection
of which is said to have opened the
way for acquiescence to the Declara-
ton of Independence, inasmuch as no
choice was left to the colonists but
submission or resistance
The election of Washington as COM
mander in chief was moved by
Thomas Johnson. of Maryland, and
urged by John Adams. of Massachu-
sets Washington, himself, was a
delegate TO this Congress.
The petition to the king was carried
by John Jay. of New York, against
strong opposition.

The appreciation OF the hundreds
OF women from both Americas who
visited Annapolis and the Naval Acad-
emy during the recent Pan-American
Conference OF Women and National
Convention of the League Of Women
Voters has heen voiced in a letter
to Mrs. St George Barber, chairman
OF the Annapolis Day Committee from
Mrs. Maud Wood Park, president Of
the National League of Women Voters.
Mrs. Park says:
Annapolis Day" is a charming
memory for all of us. Too few
Americans know anything about
the Naval Academy and you gave
those attending the Convention an
opportunity to learn which as you
know was gratefully accepted.
To handle hundreds OF women
by train and automobile with
smoothness and promptness must
have represented endless tiresome
detail for you and your co-work-
ers. We wish you and your COM
mittee to know that we recog-
nize the work involved and that
we all unite in praise and appre-
citation.
Mrs. Barter also received a letter
of thanks and appreciation jointly
signed by Mrs. Charles Woodruff,
chairman of the Pan-American Con-
ference. and Mrs. Charles Ellicott,

asked if it would not be possible to
distribute some of the army's surplus
five-ton tractors to the various State
road departments. The lotion trucks
hitherto distributed are too heavy, he
says, for many of Maryiands county
bridges and he believes the same is
probably true of bridges in many
other States.
There are. he has been informed
about 1,5O0 tractors still in the hands

which he knows are of the five-ton
caterpillar type.

FOREST SERVICE:
RECEIPTS SHOW
LARGE INCREASE

National forest receipts for the
year ending January 81 show an
increase in all districts of $1,495,-
$40 over the same period of last
year, according TO official figures
received from Washington by the
local office yesterday OF this in
crease, the southwest district adj
ded a fair share.
The great increase is due mostly
to payment of deferred grazing
fees which became due during the
fiscal year after having been
postponed for a number of months
during the previous year.
Timber sales for the fiscal year
amounted to nearly one million
dollars while grazing of cattle and
horses that passed that mark by
almost one hundred thousand dol
lars. Sheep and goat grazing fees
amounted to $6S3,40G. Water

tons are that development Of this

heaper paving was explained to
tAe business men by A, r. Hehen-
treit, of the New Mexico Construc-
ton company which has done the
greater part of the city paving.
THE main reasons for the high
cost is that the work is let in small
jobs" Mr.. Hebenstreit stated"
This necessitates a larger margin
of profit in order to come out even
on the. years work. If the work
was contracted in large blocks the
rate would be considerably lessen
ed. However, high as the small
block price must be, it is not high
enough to tempt cut-of-the-c city
contractors, which shows that the
profit is not a handsome one"
The other big reason for the high
cost is due to the fact that the cit
liens continue to demand the fin
est grade of paving, while a
cheaper grade would do just as
good and would receive the same
guarantee Of service.
"Other cities pave their resi-
dence streets with the thinner
type" Mr.. Hebenstreit stated, "and
1t would he equally successful here
and would get our guarantee for
five years the same as the heavy
type which is now being used.
believe that citizens will be sur
prised at the low figures which we
will submit on the next paving for
the thinner type of work which ]
have suggested"
