$4,000 J0BLESS
IN MARYLAND,
SAYS SURVEY
Unemployment Is on Increase
But Ratio to Population
Remains Favorable to State

BALTIMORE, Sept. 5.-Unem-
ployment in Baltimore and in
Maryland continued to increase
from January to July, and last
month 63,250 were estimated TO
be without jobs over the State
as compared with 60,S51 in JAN
uary.
The January unemployment
total for Baltimore was 42,704,
according to the U. s. Census
Bureau figures supplemented by q
July survey by DR.. j. Knox ms
ley, Commissioner Of Labor and
Statistics.
State Ratio Favorable
It Is recalled that the U. s.
Census Bureau survey based on
figures in 19 cities, disclosed in
January, 6,050.000 persons were
without jobs, able to work and
looking for jobs" an increase Of
149 per cent over the 2,429, ,O62
persons estimated in April, 1880.
However, only 1.S per cent Of
Maryland'S population was out Of
work in April, 1880, while the
rate for the nation IS q whole
was 2 per cent, and State Off
ciaIs believe the present ratio is
equally favorable to State con-
diti0nS.
Temporary Lay-offS
The estimates in Maryland do
not take into account the addi-
tional number Of workers who
have jobs but temporarily are
laid off without pay, or who are
working part time.
It also does not include tenn
porary relief to the general un-
employment situation through
agricultural and outdoor work
and other seasonal activities.

Committee Hopes to ,Banish
Wooden Posts in Widening
Plan for Montgomery Ave.

Efforts are being made by Rock
vile civic organizations to have
the 18-inch wooden trolley poles
on Montgomery Avenue replaced
by 8-inch steel poles. -
1nasmuch as there is a excel
lent chance of the Maryland State
Roads Commission agreeing to
widen Maryland Avenue from the
court house to the fair grounds,
by taking three feet Of each side
walk, it is felt that the poles
should be replaced while work is
under way.

They said the trolley officials

Is desired.

Higher Postal Rates
OppOsed By FLGherty

The suggestion Of Postmaster
General Brown that postal rates
must be raised or else wages Of
postal workers reduced, is being
warmly fought by subordinate
and organized employees Of the
Fost Office Department. In max
ing public the annual report to
the convention, Thomas F. Fla
herty, secretary-treasurer Of the
organization. said:
"There should be no relation
between postage rates and postal
employees wages. The postal
service is run for service and not
for profit. Higher postage rates
will actually reduce revenues and
further limit work opportunities
by decreasing the volume Of mail,
and we will therefore fight the
Brown proposal as untenable."

THREE WOMEN
AMONG THOSE
RULED OUT
Members Decide Methods of
Filing Were Wrong; Battle
In Court Is Believed Likely

Twenty-four candidates for
offices in Arlington county were
disqualified by the county elec-
toral board at a meeting last
night.
The twenty-four names include
Is candidates who filed for the
old board Of supervisors, holding
the new board of commissioners
to be unconstitutional, six who
filed for constableS; and one can
didate for the office Of overseer
of the poor. all Of whom filed
from magisterial districts. abol-
ished by the voters Of the county
last fall.
Green Also Disqualified
The other candidate to be dis
qualified is Charles B. Green,
candidate for the office Of Com
missioner of Revenue. Mr.. Green
was disqualified on the ground
that he is not a resident Of the
county.
CrandaIl Mackey, whose wife is
one Of the twenty.fOur disquah.
fled, would not indicate today
whether or not he would attempt
to secure a writ of mandamuS to
force the board to place Mrs.
Mackey's and other names upon
the ballot in November.
Earlier in the week, when Mrs.
Mackey. Mrs. Catherine Rogers
and Annie L. Allwine filed for the
board, Mr.. Mackey insisted that
the new board of commissioners
was set up under an act that was
unconstitutional.
Promised Court Fight
Mr.. Mackey said, further. that
If the electoral board failed to
place their names upon the bal
lots, he would fight the case
through the State Court Of Ap-
pealS, if necessary.
The decision of the board was
announced after members ex-
pressed the opinion that the new
form of government, adopted by
a large majority in the general
election last November, was con-
stitutional and the magiSterial
districts were rightly abolished.
Unless court action is instituted,
the total number Of names which
will be placed upon the ballot will
thus be reduced to 80.

Especial to the Democrat)


 Newport, R. I. March 5-George Taylor, former coach of the Yale basketball team, was today secured as a referee for the New England interscholastic basketball tourna- ment, to be held here March 19, 20 and 21.

 MT Taylor's selection came after Harold A.

He recom- mended MT Taylor so highly that Chairman w. Frank Ebbitt of the committee on the selection of off, ciaIs called MT Taylor by telephone this morning, and obtained his con- sent.
 George Hoyt is chief official of the tourney, and the others besides MT Taylor are Edward Kelleher of Massachusetts and Howard Asher of this city.

FRIARS BEATEN
 IN YMCA COURT
 SERIES THRILLER

In a game flor the championship of the Y. M. c. A." that had some of the fans on their feet many times, the Zi Theta Pi team took a whizzing 25 to 23 contest from the Putsic Friars last night at the central ~" after forty minutes of bang-up bas- ketball featuring some sensational shooting and flock of fouls. The winners. however, as Y champions only temporarily, for the game ar- engagement was best two out of three. The next contest will be played Sat- urday night, March 21.
 Too Many Fouls. Punishment of Harry Huey and Johnny Brown of the Putsics in the last period allowed the blue-clad hoopers to keep small lead to the end, though the Friars constantly threatened to tie the count. The FTP boys led 9 to at half time which was just enough margin to win as they were outscored IF to 16 during the last half of the contest. Kraft, with four floor and as many foul goals led the point parade with IF, while Andy Stanitsky counted nine times for the red and white saw the game.
 Chin Music.
 Comment of the rival leaders after the game follows:
 Charley Leader, (for the Putsics): T still think the best team lost. If Huey and Brown played basketball instead of jai-alai during the first part of the last period, there would have been nothing to it but the Put sics. Whats more, we'll prove that on the 21st."
 Idris Alderson (for the ZTP's): Leaders kids gave us a good work out but that's about all. We eased up a little in the last half, as Gene Fennimore has a fallen arch. Figure us for two straight on the 21st."
 In the preliminary game last night. the Hartford K. of l.. girls came through with a 21 to IA win over the Scovill femmes. Millie Benson scored all Il points for the Water bury entry during the first half.
