Friends Doubt Suicide.

Hagerstown.-With a knife wound
in his left wrist, which severed an
artery, the dead body of Martin L.
Brandt, aged seventy-two, carpenter
of Hagerstown, was found lying in an
isolated spot in the mountains near
Jugtown, 10 miles east of here.
Whether. Brandt came to his death by
his own act or whether he was MUIR
dered and his body taken to the iso-
lated spot is a problem the police are
endeavoring to solve.
The body was frozen and had ap-
parently been lying at the spot for
several days. There were no signs
of violence about the body, except the
cut on the wrist.
! In an inside pocket of the dead
mans coat was found blood-stained
razor, which had been carefully
closed. A small amount of money, a
watch and some papers also were
found in the pockets.

Senate chamber, where Gen. Charles
q. Dawes took the oath of office as
President and delivered his inaug-
ural address.
Promptly at noon, when President
Pro-tempore Cummins' gayel fell for
the last time and sent the Sixty-eighth
Congress into history, Dawes mounted
the rostrum for his pledge OF Office.
The galleries were crowded with dis
tinguished audience Of Government Of
ficials, the floor was jammed with the
full membership of both the Senate
and the House. Directly before the
rostrum sat the President.
When the Senate ceremonies were
concluded the entire asesmblage came
ont to the east lportico steps. The sun
was shining brightly again, and the
breeze had abated somewhat. 1t was
an ideal March day. The President ap-
peared just few minutes before l
Pm. He was accompanied by Mrs.
Coolidge, her mother and his father.
The Marine Band, in bright coats,
struck up "Hail to the Chief"
The band was hushed and Chief JUS
tice Taft called the President forward.
Mr.. Coolidge raised his right hand
while Taft in clear voice carried out
through the amplifiers to the thousands
the words Of the oath.
AS soon as Mr.. Coolidge had given
his assent to it he stepped up to the
platform and began the reading Of his
inaugural address.
Two soldiers stood at attention, be-
low the President, holding American
flags
Mr.. Coolidge looked over the vast
crowd and back again at his manu-
script as he spoke. He frequently used
a sweeping gesture Of his right arm
| to stress some point. Every syllable
Of his words could be heard throughout
the audience.
When he called upon the Govern
ment to maintain itself "scrupulously
American" in its foreign policy, the
crowd burst into its first applause
Again applause greeted his suggestion
that America continue her lead in dis.
arming the nations of the world The
President stressed this point particu
| larly
There was also applause that fol
lowed his recommendation for joining
| the World Court-a proposal which-the
Senate only a few hours before had
again declined to indorse.

To Examine All oyster Workers.

Oyster men in Maryland were
warned that medical examination of
every oyster packing plant employee
will be required by next September,
when the oyster season will open.
The warning was given in letters sent
cut by A. L. Sullivan, Drug Commits
sioner of Maryland.
The letters notified oyster men of
regulations prescribed by the United
States Public Health Service for the
oyster industry, affecting the santa
ton of packing and shocking plants.
Medical examination and blood tests
of oyster employees were asked by
health authorities Of Illinois, who in
spected Maryland oyster beds and
packing plants, before the Illinois ban
on raw oyster shipments was re-
moved.
Blood tests were made of employees
at many towns on the Chesapeake
Bay. but most Baltimore oyster deal
ers declined to adopt the tests, since
very few employees had been retained.
The tests made last month showed
that a number of oyster employees
were possible typhoid carriers, and
one case of typhoid was found among
oyster workers, it was said.

Plans to have an Interstate COM
nittee composed of residents of Mary
land and Virginia who are interested
in the grabbing industry, formed for
the purpose of protecting the female
crab and the so-called green crab. will
be laid before Virginia conservation
officials this week by State Conserva-
ton Commissioner Swepson Earle.
Commission Earle has just returned
from 356-mile cruise of the bay, DUR
Ing which he went over the crab situa-
ton with crabbers and packers of

Warden e. Lee LeCompte to study the
Virginia method of breeding quail,
and while there he proposes to ask
the conservation officials of that State
to name committee from the crab
industry to visit Crisfield and form
two-State pact to protect the crab.
The aim of the proposed commit
tee would be to prevent the crabbers
Of Crisfield and in other Maryland
waters from catching the green crab,
which has little or no commercial
value, and to prevent the crabbers
of the Hampton Roads section from
catching the female crab while it is
in the sponge or egg-bearing state.
The industry is threatened with de-
rletion unless some action is taken to
curtail this phase of the grabbing
business. Mr.. Earle pointed out that
the crabbers of the Hampton Roads
section have been catching crabs in

STATE ROAD OILING
TOBE DONEBY JULY
100000 Gallons Will Be Re-
quired TO Cover 430
Miles This Year.

The State road oiling program for
1926, which calls for treating the sur
faces of AGO miles of State roads, will
be completed by July 1, when the
motor tourist season begins in earnest.
Contracts which will be let this
month will specify completion of the
oiling work by July, Harry D. Williar,
Jr., assistant engineer of the State
Roads Commission, announced, These
terms will be strictly enforced to pre-
vent motorists from being inconveni-
enced by freshly oiled roads, he said.
Approximately 100000 gallons of
oil will be required to treat State
roads this year, Mr.. Williar said. Bids
have been asked for the work and
must be filed with the commission
on March 10.
State roads in all but three counties
of Maryland will be oiled this spring,
according to Mr.. Williar. Roads in
Somerset, Wicomico and Worcester
counties, on the Eastern Shore, will
not require reoiling this year.
More than 80 miles of gravel roads
in the Southern Maryland counties
are included in the 1925 oiling pro-
gram, Mr.. Williar said. The gravel
roads are said to require oiling to pre-
vent disintegration due to wear and
weather.
