Rev. Edward Minor Files Sec
ond Petition-Alleges
Persecution

James F. Evans, counsel for
Rev. Edward Minor, who rec
emily filed a petition in the
Circuit Court in Equity at
Elkton, to restrain the Elkton

special policeman stationed
near his residence on East
Main street, in that town, and
intercepting couples who

ton, counsel for the President
and Town Council of Elkton.
The Rev. Minor alleges that
he is a peaceful, law-abiding
citizen, and had no connection
with the so-called taxi ring"

marriage couples, and has not
transgressed any of the or
dinances of the town of Elk
ton or any of the laws of the
State of Maryland.
He declares that the action
of the defendants in this malic-
iously interfering with his
rights and the destruction of
the peaceful enjoyment of his
home is without warrant or
authority. in law, is malicious,
oppressive and unjust, a tres
pass of his rights of citizen
ship.

WELFARE ASSOCIATION
Report Of Years Work Made
At Fifth Annual Meeting

Report Of Years Work Made
At Fifth Annual Meeting
The fifth annual meeting of
the Cecil County Welfare Asso-
citation was held at the Church
House, in Elkton, on April 8th,
with a good attendance and a
very interesting session.
Reports were given for the
various departments, showing
that the Association has been
very active during the past
year. The extra heavy de-
mand for relief has handicap
ped the organization in carry
ing out the purpose for which
it was formed ito care for de-
pendent, neglected, hayward
and crippled children, and to
provide social service for other
classes of dependent and needy
in the county"
Miss Beardsell gave a very
fine and comprehensive report
Of the work accomplished and
gave life stories of a few Of our
very interesting family Of de-
pendent children who look to
her and the Association for
care and guardianship. We
were more than ever impressed
with the very vital need for
continuing the good work, and
are sure that funds will be
forthcoming to carry on, for
we could not think of giving up
at this time, when more than
ever our services are so much
needed.
Judge T. J. Wapter, of the
Juvenile Court, OF Baltimore,
gave a very interesting address
reviewing the history of the
care of dependent and neglect
ed children, and showing how
organized work where it has
been given even a brief trial
mas made of this class of chill
dren useful citizens, instead Of
inmates of penal institutions.
Miss Katherine Kerwan, Of
the Maryland Children's Aid,
encouraged us in the growth
made by the organization DUR
ing four years of work. She
also called attention to the fact
that the very difficult time
through which we are now
passing has taxed to the limit
other counties beside Cecil, and
in at least one county the re-
lief work has had to be given
up by the Children's Aid Soci-
ETY. because it was taking the
funds needed for the care of
the wards and other depart
ments which could not be
turned over to other groups.
She advised our Association
to encourage as much as pos
sible the formation of local re-
lief groups, such as already es-
tablished in several towns in
the county, and to cooperate
with them in rendering social
service as needed, but let, the
actual relief work be done
locally.
The responsibility of unem-
ployment surely does not rest
with our Association, and
neither can we be expected to
carry the burden of relief. We
are glad to render all assist
ance possible, but we cannot
buy food without money, any
more than can others.
Our financial report showed
total receipts of $8,969.7O, and
expenses of $9,171.29, leaving
a deficit of over 5000.
Arrangements are under
way to start our annual collec-
ton of funds, and the service
we can render will be helped
or hindered according to the
response received. Surely all
would be glad to have a part
In helping our dependent chill
dren become useful citizens in
stead of criminals.
The officers were reelected
to serve another year.
