FEDERAL ROAD RELIEF
LOAN FOR STATE

The State Roads Commits
sion has decided to accept a
loan of $1,019,570 from FEEDER
al Government relief funds for
the building of roads in Mary
land. The amount was made
available by the recent act ap-
propriating $120,0O0,000 for
road building throughout the
country.
In making the announce
ment Harry d. Williar, Jr.,
chief engineer of the commits
sion, said:
"Under present conditions
the commission can regard the
acceptance of the Federal ap-
preparation of $1,019,570 as
beneficial to Maryland. We
expect to spend the money in
each county on new construc-
ton prorated in the usual way
on the mileage basis"
No definite scheme as TO how
the money would be appor-
toned or how many men would
be given work has yet been
agreed on.
One of the first things the
, commission will have to do is
establish a minimum scale of
wages for skilled and unskilled
labor, this being one of the
provisions of the act.
The law stipulates that wage
rates, predetermined by the
highway departments of the
States, shall be stated in the
invitation for bids and in the
bids submitted for the work.
So far as practicable, the Gov
eminent has stipulated that no
individual employed on any
one of the relief projects shall
be permitted to work more
than thirty hours in any week.
Former service men with de-
pendents will be given prefer
ence in employment, but Mr..
Williar explained that nearly
all the labor used in Maryland
would be of the pick-and-shov-
| ell kind.
The advance is repayable to
the Federal Government over
a period of ten years.
The act stipulates that the
work for which the appropria-
lions were made must be COM
pleted by July 1, 1888.

Morse Mythology

In Morse mythology Balder was
the god of justice and the personifica-
ton Of the brightness and benefcence
Of the sun. He was the son of Odin
and his wife Frigga. According to the
legend in the Edda, Frigga undertook
to get every living creature and In
animate thing to swear that they
would not harm her son Balder, but
by mistake she omitted the mistletoe,
which took no such oath. After these
had pledged, Balder was believed
to be invulnerable and the other gods
playfully threw stones and even shot
arrows at him without injuring him
in the least. Finally, however, Loki,
the god of evil, fashioned an arrow of
a mistletoe twig and had it shot at
Balder by the latter's blind twin
brother Hodhr, the god of darkness.
The arrow pierced Balders heart and
he fell Observation-Disclosures Magazine.

Pelicans Had Been Too
Long Fishermen's Pets

A discovery was made a short time
ago, says the Detroit News, that many
pelicans in Santa Monica bay, Calf,
have never learned to fish for their
daily subsistence. For years the
pouch-billed water birds have dozed
sleepily around the wharves and fish
ing vessels and lived entirely upon
the fish proffered them by generous
fishermen.
1t was not necessary for these birds
to skim the waves of the sea in pur-
suit Of schools of fish and make the
beautiful dives SO attractive to observ-
ers; thus they never learned the art.
But condition occurred that almost
spelled fms for such a dangerous
mode Of living.
Rough seas drove the fish to quieter
and deeper waters. Fishermen failed
to make the usual catches and there
was less food to toss to the birds.
Some cases were found where birds
had almost starved to death. That
the condition was caused by a lack Of
schooling is proved by the fact that
scores of regular birds found no diff
Guilty in doing plenty Of their own
fishing.

How Should One Danish
TYRANNY of Insomnia ?

Since an Australian scientist has
discovered the sleep control center
of the brain, may we ask if it were
like push button? This Is the utility
of the discovery most desired. We re-
sent, and bitterly, the power Of in
somnia to work its will with us. 1t is
a tyrant that is Indifferent to our rail-
ings.
Physiology and psychology seem
closely related in the human quality
of sleep. It is a comfortable doctrine
that If your unconscious repose is quite
regularly but five hours out Of the
twenty-four, that that Is all 'your sys-
tenn requires" but there is the lassi-
tude, depression and exhaustion of the
long day, to refute any such conclu-
sion.
Sleep, that knits up the raveled
sleeve Of care, must somehow be made
to tend to its knitting, F. II. Collier,
writing in the st. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat,- concludes. Probably the victim
knows ways to enforce this, but they
are inconvenient and often impossible.
Run ten miles and you will sleep ten
hours No doubt; but when and where
can one run ten miles without being
taken for lunatic? And ones hours
must be occupied in making living.

THE CAMPAIGN FUND

The public is now being re-
called with the news that $10,-
100000 will have to be raised
to conduct the Hoover-Roose-
welt battle for the presidency.
In 1928 the two parties spent
a total of $16,500,000.
When the politicians of both
parties are telling how much
money it will take to care for
the needy people this winter,
it looks like an economic
crime to raise $10,000,000 to be
spent by the two parties large
" in Safeguarding opposing
candidates.
Let both parties, if they are
sincere in their advertised de-
sires to help the needy, donate
their millions of campaign
funds for relief work this win
ter. And let the people vote
in a normal manner for their
political choice, free from the
high-pressure influence of a
100000 slush fund.

The cost : of living dollar
brought Z cents worth more in
June than it did in December,
according to the Department
of Labor. Figures just issued
show that the great shrinkage
in values have put food prices
back to within one-tenth of l
per cent of what they were in
1913, left rent only a little
higher, and clothing and fuel
at levels not far above.
The workingman's family
found it's cost of living de-
creased z per cent in June,
compared with the preceding
December. the report shows.
As between June and a year
ago, cost of living has gone
down almost 10 per cent. Put
in another way, 80 cents spent
by the workingman's family
today will buy about what it
took a dollar to purchase in
June, 1881.

Oddly enough, or enthusiastically
enough, the British museum in Lon

years ago, feather, cloaks were still
in use. Later, when the frantic hunt

were made, several were found in New

lining for a buffalo robe!

EASTERN LIVESTOCK CO.
OPERATIVE

The directors of the Eastern
Livestock Cooperative Market
ing Association have advised
the Federal Farm Board that
definite plans have been COM
pleted for opening a coopera-
tive livestock sales agency at
the Union Stock Yards in Bal
timore, Md, August 1. The
operation of this agency will
mark the elimination of 10
years of effort by stockmen in
this territory to organize for
the cooperative marketing of
their livestock.
The Eastern Livestock Co
operative Marketing Associa-
ton was organized by live
stock producers for the pur-
pose of marketing their live
stock on the terminal markets
of Baltimore, Md, Jersey City,
N. j., and Lancaster, Pa. This
Association is set up on q CAPT.
tai stock basis with $4,000
shares of common stock at 81
per share and 1000 shares of
preferred stock at $4,000 per
share.
The Association was incor-
porated on September 5, 1881.
Since that date educational and
membership campaigns have
been conducted throughout the
eastern territory. Over $685.
900 worth of common and pre-
ferred stock has been sold to
more than 1000 individual
farmers, stockmen, shipping
associations, farm. organiza-
tions, and others in the states
of Virginia, West Virginia,
Maryland, Tennessee, North
Carolina, New York, New Jer-
sey and Pennsylvania. These
stakeholder members own or
control over 3,100 carloads OF
marketable livestock.
Membership in toe Eastern
Livestock Association is re-
stricted to bona tide producers
of livestock who purchase at
least one share OF common
stock and who sign q market
ing agreement to nlatket their
livestock through the Associa-
ton. Membership rms direct
from the individual to the
Eastern Livestock Association.
Stakeholder members in each
of the eight states making up
the Eastern Livestock select
directors to represent them on
the board.

tanning it's principal Office at

soon as possible.
