ARMY STAFF FRAMES
LAW TO DRAFT WOMEN
Compulsory Service Of Nations
Feminine Quota In Next
Conflict Promised

The General Staff of the War De-
partment is. now making a careful
study of the ways in which women
can be used in time of war.
When this study is completed it is
possible the United States will follow
the example of France in passing
laws making women over twenty-one
liable to CONSUMPTION.
Miss Anna Phipps, placed by the
War Department in charge of rela-
lions with women's organizations,
made the preliminary study of
women's work in time of war. She
says 100000 women took active part
in the World War.
at would seem France has estab-
lished the principle of equal response
bility and privilege for men and
women in defending their country"
she said. SIN the United States the
general staff is now making a study,
although legislation will not be in
troduced until the general staff and
the Secretary of War are satisfied
with the plan"
The plan contemplates registra-
ton of all women over twenty-one
in time of war, with QUESTIONABLE
as to what type of work the woman
has done, what she would be best
fitted to do and what her preferences
would be.
A very definite part of the plan
which the War Department is study
ing is to give women military rank
when they are definitely working I'M
der military orders and doing war
time duty. A woman doctor at the
front would be recognized with the
rank of Lieutenant, Captain or
Major, or Whatever she would be en-
titled to if she were man.

MUNICIPAL ELECTION .
WAS HELD MONDAY
Messrs. WhOrtOn, ArOnhalt and
Davis Were Successful
Candidates

Samuel Aronhalt was retained and
William Whorton and Delbert Davis
were elected as Councilmen in the
Municipal Election held on Monday.
Miss Frances Hamill, who had no OPP
position in the contest, was reelected
as Treasurer for the town.
Mr.. Whorton received the largest
number of votes of any of the candi-
dates for the council, and it is said
that his service to the town in the
line of road and street building, and
any concrete work that might be done
will be invaluable, as Mr.. Whorton is
a successful contractor and a practi-
cal workman in concrete.
Mr.. Aronhalt has been a popular
Councilman and has been reelected
in this official capacity upon number
of occasions.
The election on Monday marks the
first step of Mr.. Davis into the politi-
cal world, and as the ticket. which
was in the field on Monday, was really
a citizens ticket and not political
one, it might be said that he has yet
his initial political step to take, and
that his induction into this Official
that his induction into this official
his genial manner and accepted bust
ness qualifications which have made
him successful in his several business
undertakings in the county. Mr..
Davis was cashier of the First Nat
ional Bank at Gormania few years
ago, since which time he has been en-
gagged in the banking business as
Teller in the First National Bank in
Oakland.
The result Of the election is as
follows: Samuel Aronhalt, pa; Del
bert Davis, 225; Harold E. Rock, 1863;
Edward A. Shaffer, 213; Lloyd c..
Shaffer, 213; J. William Whorton,
1902, For Treasurer Miss Frances
Hamill, 351. A total of 472 votes
were cast.

Gil are Arthur Lawton and Edward
A. Shaffer, and the members of the
Council now are DR.. W. w. Grant,
Mrs. E. z. Tower, Grover c. Stemple,

DEFECT FOUND In TITLE
GIVEN ELECTRIC COMPANY
Sale Was Not Made In AccOr.
dance With Provision Under
Bond Issue

A defect has recently been dis
covered in title given the Mononga-
hela West Penn Public Service Com
pany by the Mayor and Town Council
of Oakland for the sale of electric
lighting equipment and franchise of
the town which was made in August,
1922, and an act of the Legislature
would be necessary to perfect the
title.
At meeting of the Council held
Monday night, it was unanimously de-
cided by that body not to recommend
passage of a bill which was presented
to Senator A. D. Naylor by the presi-
dent of the West Penn System, for
his approval and introduction in the
Maryland Legislature, and to defer
action in the matter until the meeting
Of the next Legislature in 1929.
The defect in the title which was
given the West Penn Company was
discovered when the records of a
similar case, which was disposed of
by the Court of Appeals, were scan
ned by local attorney and the at
tention of his findings made known
to the town officials. The case in
question arose out of an attempted
sale by the Municipality of Snow Hill,
and the records of that case disclose
that sale similar to that made by
the Council of Oakland, to the West
Penn Company, was made by the town
of Snow Hill. In this case the Court
of Appeals set aside the sale, declar~
ing it defective and stating that it
could not be made without an act of
the Legislature. The contention
which arises in the matter now of
interest is that the present Town
Council feels that a hasty sale of the
property and franchise in question
was made to the West Penn Company
and that the citizens of the town We're
not permitted a voice in the matter
VI VIC NISPOSel VI INC ptOpeIlt. lueIe-
by making the sale unconstitutional
and unfair to the citizens of the town.
The present Council feels that the
title given the West Penn Company
is null and void because of the fact
that bond issue was made by the
citizens of Oakland for specific
purpose and that by the bond issue
the electrical equipment bought at
that time was the property of the
citizens and to sell the same, it was
stated, in contract with the pur-
chaser that a vote of the citizens
must be taken in order to make a sale
of the property and franchise valid.
The West Penn Company was
represented in this matter before the
Council by Attorney William R.
Ofutt.

MAP OF MARYLAND
FORESTS PREPARED
Table Shows Garrett County
Leads In Wooded Area With
274.4S3 Acres.

A composite map Of Maryland
showing the density of the forest
areas has been compiled by the For
estry Department for use in the de-
partment's educational work, Karl E.
Pfeiffer, Assistant State Forester, said
recently. The map is believed to be
the only one of its kind in the
country.
Until recently the Forestry Depart
ment had maps of the counties of the
State showing the forest areas and
their density. F. W. Besley, State
Forester, had the different county
maps arranged and Autographed into
single map through the Maryland
Geological Survey.
Scale Is Eighty Miles To Inch.
Drawn to the scale of eighty miles
to an inch, the composite map shows
the eleven lookout towers in the State
and State forests, as well as railroad
lines and towns and cities of impor-
lance.
Mr.. Pfeiffer said that the maps
would be distributed to schools thru
out the State in order to acquaint
pupils with the location of the for
ests in Maryland. Members of the
General Assembly also have been
given copies Of the maps. individuals
will be able to obtain copies on re-
quest.
Acreage Table Included
A table giving the forest acreage
of each county appears on the maps.
The figures, based on a survey made
last year, show that Garrett county
heads the others with 274,4 acres of
mixed hardwood and pine.

opment of a comprehensive program
