The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company has started work on the
electric signal system between Cum
berland and Grafton, which was sus-
pended during the winter. More than
hundred furloughed men have been
called to this work. One of the camps,
eight in number, between Keyser and
Grafton, is located at Mountain Lake
Park. These camps average fifteen
men.
There are rumors afloat that the
Improvement of the road between
Loeb Lynn and German will not be
started this spring. Whether this is
true or not, we do not presume to
know. We hope the report is unfound-
ed. Aside from the fact that the peo-
pie over the mountain are entitled TO
this consideration, inside politics
ought not to control the situation and
prevent a much needed public i'm
provement, which will give work to a
good many of our citizens and help
solve, to that extent, the unemploy-
ment situation in this particular re-
gion. With this work started, with a
fair season in prospect at the Park
and the Mount Airy Canning Com
pany's expanding policy, this summer
