BLUE LAW APPLIED
TO DEALER IN FOOD
Sunday Customers of Deli
catessen Shop in Baltimore
: Summoned to Court.
BY the Associated Press.


BALTIMORE Md, December a.
Many food purchasers yesterday were
summoned to appear before magistrate
today as police laid blue law test at
the door of the delica lessen shop. The
sale of perishable food, police said, is
prohibited on Sunday.
Two uniformed officers stationed out
side of a shop in the residential part
of the city questioned each person who
emerged with a bundle.
The first to be questioned was man
who had bought a small sack Of -four
and a tin of peaches. He was asked to
appear in court. The next customer
was woman and the officers ruled by
purchasing tin of potato chips and a
bottle of orange juice she had broken
the law and should appear before the
magistrate. Inside the store the
owners, seeing test case was being
made, tried to learn what they could
sell. At no time did the officers inter-
fere with the actual purchasing of goods,
but took the name and address of all
who they believed had secured perish
able goods.
No charges were placed against the
customers.
The Legislature in listing the articles
of food permissible to be sold Sunday
failed to mention vegetables and food
stuffs other than milk bread and fruits.

McAdoo In The Air

William Gibbs McAdoo. after a transcontinental
flight from Los Angeles to New York, deserted the
air for the picture and the newspaper kodakers made
the most Of 1t. He gave as his reason for the big
hop that he wished to determine the speed with which
the average business man could cross the continent
In comfort and safety. He made the Journey from
Los Angeles to the capital OF the nation in is hours
ard 25 minutes. Now the former secretary OF the
treasury is convinced that a plane furnished all the
comfort and the safety Of a rail pullman close 20
the ground.
In the good old days OF the oxcart civilization the
hardy pioneer made the journey from the midwest to
the California shores of the Pacific in six months

Minor Cities AS Trade Centers

Census Director william nj. Stuert. pointing to
Chicago and Los Angeles as examples. in an interview
declared all cities Of more than 1905 600 population
should be at work defining themselves as trade CEN
ters. Why not all cities Of more than $4,000 inhabit-
ants2 He also advocated city planning on the basis
OF population growth logically to be anticipated. All
cities should define themselves as trade centers.
Brownsville should be a great trade center. 1t serves
q vast trade territory in Lower Rio Grande Valley
Trade expansion should come with the population ex-
pansion. Men and money make cities grow.
Dallas. for instance. is on the verge Of adopting
the city management plan Of municipal government.
All the amendments we're adopted by a heavy ma
iority. Political lines were shattered. Property own
es and taxpayers had grown weary Of the old mu-
nicipal system. They had grown weary Of factions
and cliques. They had grown weary Of the rule Of the
practical politicians. Now they are going to give
the acid test to the city manager plan.
Fort Worth adopted it years ago and Fort Worth
is a shining example of what a city manager, given
a free hand. is able TO do in giving the people a real
municipal government. Austin started to give the
plan the acid test long before Fort Worth adopted It
and the growth Of Austin has been amazing. Some
day great cities. New York and Philadelphia and Chi
cago. will be compelled to toss the practical politicians
aside and adopt the city manager form Of municipal
government.

Celia went. She was a pitiful
