The burden of the Montgomery
County Social Service League
during April increased 81 per
cent over that of April 1881, there
being 688 cases handled last
month, compared with 433 year
ago.
In most of these cases, the
major problems could not be met
by material relief alone or by
giving jobs. Social aid of some
sort was necessary IN Cwo-thirds
Of the cases.
No discrimination is being
shown any person, regardless Of
color or race, Miss Willie Greene
Day, executive secretary, said
today.
Cases are handled only on their
merits. If a war veteran is shown
to be in need and to be worthy
subject, assistance is given him
and his family instead of refer

X-REP. WELSH.
/. EXCOR|ATED
FOR DEAL

A charge that former Repre-.
sentative George A. Welsh, OF
Philadelphia, swapped his pros
poets of reelection in 1880 for
the promise of a Federal judi
ciary appointment was made at
the Senate Judiciary Subcom-
mittee hearing on Welsh's nomt
nation to a Federal district Judge
ship in a letter from A. E. Hurs
man, Philadelphia attorney, which
implicated the Ware organization.
Hurshman wrote:
welsh was appointed as a
reward for dropping out of
the fight for reelection against
Edward L. Stokes"
Hurshman protested against
the appointment being made a
football of politics" He did
not come here, however, to offer
verbal testimony.
In a letter to the committee,
Mrs. Evelyn Blaine Binns, OF
Philadelphia, also charged that
there was a deal by which Welsh
would withdraw from the Con-
gressional race. She inquired:
''Might not the pact have
been arranged in connection
with the Delaware River Bridge
bonding scheme, under which
$45,OOO,OOO was sought to pay
off $4,000, 900 in debts and no
body .lnOwS where the other
$11,OOO,OOO would gO?"
Other charges against Welsh
were made in writing by an in
mate of q Philadelphia hospital,
who claimed Welsh feared certain
political exposures"

CAR line DROPS
ITS OFFER

Failure to obtain a $40 annual
tax exemption on its poles and
lines has killed the offer of the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company to donate its right-of
way through Mt. Rainier to the
State of Maryland it was re-
vealed today in a letter from Ed
win D. Detwiler, right-of-way at
torney for the traction company,
to Bird H. Dolby, corporation
counsel of Mt. Rainier.
Detwilers letter, in part. said:
"If the town does not have
the authority to exempt such
property it could easily get it
at the next legislature if it SO
desired and permit the present
assessment to stand until that
time, but inaSmuch as you do
not seem inclined to cooperate
to this extent, we will drop the
matter entirely"
Dolby said that, in his opinion,
neither the town nor the State
legislature could legally grant a
tax exemption for a particular
piece of property, such as that in
volved. He said to do so would
be unequal taxation and uncon.
Stitutional.

Strange Story of Morton Man

Over forty years of life as a hermit
ended recently for Andrew Sundhlad,
75-year-old recluse Of near Morton
who died recently in the Franklin
hospital following an attack of pneu-
monia.
Neighbors found the aged man in
a state of semi-coma and notified
county officials, who rushed him to
Franklin. He had been sick five days
before being discovered For over
40 years Mr.. Sundbald lived alone in
a quaint shack in the coulee near the
Pat Kearney farm. He seldom left
his hermitage to go to town, being
content to have neighhors bring him
what few articles he needed.
The story Of his voluntary with
drawal from the busy world, as told
in the Morton Enterprise, goes back
two score years when he was young
man in his native land Of Sweden.
There he met and won a sweetheart
whom he hoped to marry.
But the urge to follow emigrants
to the New World brought him to the
United States. Working in Boston at
his trade as a painter he saved
money, hoping some day to be able
to return and bring back the girl.
When that day came, he found,
upon returning to his native land,
