Care In Burning
 Fallen Foliage
Highway Commissioner Macdonald Warns Against
 Unprotected BOnfires

With trees throughout the state shedding their foliage rapidly and with property owners resorting to the customary bonfire in ridding their lawns and yards of the fallen leaves, Highway Commissioner John A. M, cdonald today issued a warning both against the prac- tice of leaving fires unprotected along the highways and against building them on bituminous ma cadam pavement, or, on or near, freshly oiled highway shoulders.
 Burning leaves or rubbish on bituminous pay .nent results in oxidation of the material used in the construction of the road and soon causes a complete distinegra- tion and crumbling of the pave ment. This condition is not only costly to repair, but is also likely to be the direct cause of motor ve- hicle accidents.
 Even m. obvious is the com missioner's warning against the burning of dead leaves on or near freshly oiled shoulders or dirt roads, since the danger of spread ing the fire through the medium of the oil is great and unless guarded against might easily result in a conflagratio-- of large proportions.
 As far as possible. the burning of leaves should be undertaken on ones own property and never at

STATES BEGIN BIG
CONCENTRATION IN
VOLSTEAD BATTLE
Maryland-D. C. Federation's
Action Points Way in
Backing National Com
mittee and Pledging Aid
Before Congress.

Washington, D. C. NS)-Fore-
casting action by state federations of
labor throughout the country, the
Maryland and District of Columbia
Federation of Labor has taken lead
ing position among state labor bodies
in the demand for modification of the
Volstead act.
The Maryland D. C. resolution,
made public in full here this week.
points out the destruction of indus
try brought about by the Volstead
act, and records unanimous and COM
plete endorsement of labor's national
committee for modification of the
Volstead act.
"The enactment of the eighteenth
amendment to our constitution" says
the resolution, ''and the passage of
the Volstead act by congress to
carry out its intent have now been
the law of the land for the past II
years. The "whereases" continue
with specific charges as follows:
"The passage of these laws de-
stroyed what was then the sixth
largest industry in this country
throwing out of employment hun
dreds of thousands of honest, hard
working and patriotic American citi-
zens.
Despite the tremendous loss in rev.
enue which the government derived
from the taxes on this industry the
enormous expenditure of millions of
dollars attempting the enforcement of
these laws, it has been proved to all
fair minded, liberty loving Americans
that it is physical impossibility to
enforce these laws. That in place of
a well regulated industry, millions of
homes have become distilleries and
breweries, manufacturing alcoholic
concoctions that are not only a detri-
ment to the health of those who drink
