Social Service To
Hold Annual Dinner
Tuesday, June 6
Miss Henrietta Addition, OF
New York Crime Proven
ton Bureau, To Speak

The annual meeting Of the Social
Service League of Montgomery
County will be held at the Manor
Club, June 9th, 1888, at P. M. There
will be dinner at which Miss Hen
rietta Addition will be the chief
speaker. Annual reports from all
officers and chairmen of the standing
committees will be submitted for
adoption.
Miss Henrietta Addition, a native
of Georgia, is at present Deputy
Police Commissioner in Charge of the
Crime Prevention Bureau of New
York City. Miss Addition is the first
woman to be officially appointed
Deputy Commissioner in New York
City, and has organized and directs
the Crime Prevention Bureau there.
Her subject will be "Crime Proven
ton"
Miss Addition is one of the nation
ally prominent figures in public well
fare work in the United States. She
has been identified with Government
service in the social welfare field and
was for several years with the De-
partment of Public Welfare in Penns-
ylvania where she rendered outstand-
ing service.
The Social Service annual drive for
funds is nearing the end with salts
factory results. While only partial
returns have been received from the
eighteen branch chairman they indi-
cate that the branch quotas will be
reached According to George w.
Davis, drive chairman an interesting
development of the drive has been
the unexpected response. A large
number Of people are giving, and, in
! dividual pledges are also for greater
amounts than in past years. It Is be-
lieved that such results are due to
the fact that the majority of donors
having suffered the deprivations of
the depression are in better mood to
appreciate the condition of their less
fortunate neighbors and are there
fore giving generously.
An attempt is being made this year
to directly canvass the entire County
extending the opportunity to give to
every one, and in view of the greater
area to be covered it will be neces-
sary to extend the drive until the an
nual meeting, June 9th,

DIR. Elliott Warns OF
Spotted Fever Cases

Warning to parents in Montgom-
cry County has been issued by DIR. v.
L. Ellicott, Montgomery County
health officer, following discovery in
the suburban section of a case of
spotted fever caused by ticks. The
health officer quickly warned parents
to watch children carefully and to
remove ticks at once. He pointed out
that a similar case last year would
point to the presence of infected ticks.
The ticks which carry the disease
have been infected by biting an in
fected dog or rabbit, health officials
say. They then place the virus in
the blood stream Of persons or ami
mails which they bite later. Infection
does not start until several hours
after the tick has attached itself and
started sucking blood.
Brush along the road, grassy strips
on unused roads and brush along
streams should be avoided, and the
body should be inspected carefully
several times day.

Barrett Prettyman
Named Counsel For
Internal Revenue
APPOINTMENT Makes Third Off
cial Charged To Montgomery
County

With the naming of E. Barrett
Prettyman, Washington attorney re-
siding in Chevy Chase, Nd, as gen.
eral counsel for the Bureau of In
ternaI Revnue, there are three major
appointments now charged against
Montgomery County on the patron
age list of the Roosevelt administra-
tion.
A number of county Democratic
leaders are protesting the charging
of these appointments against the
county on the assumption that fewer
Jobs will be available for old-line
workers. In two of the instances the
appointees have been voting here fol
only three or four years. Besides
Prettyman, the appointees were Dear
G. Acheson, who maintains home al
Sandy Spring and Conway P. Coe, Of
Chevy Chase. Acheson was named
Under Secretary of the Treasurer
and Coe was appointed Patent Com.
missioner.
1t is felt that Prettyman more
nearly approximates Montgomery
County Democrat, as he has taker
part in political campaigns here fol
some time, although he has buckec
the regular organization forces. His
father was the Rev. DR.. Forest ]
Prettyman, chaplain of the Senate
during the Wilson administration ane
is member of the Prettyman fam
lily, long prominent in Montgomery
County.

tiating with the various political fac
tionS, serving as an Intermediary to
put an end to the intolerable admin
istration of Machado.
The Latin American nations have
now an open mind about Cuba. They
all realize that the United States is
up against bad situation. and that
it may be necessary in the end to land
troops in Cuba But they were some
what perturbed by the tremendous dis
play of force, about the preparation of
a so-called armada to cope with the
situation in that republic.
Old Doubts Again Rise.
The old doubts as to Americas hon
esty of purpose came back into their
minds and the work Of the President,
who had made the relations between
the two sections better than they had
been since the Spanish-American War,
appeared endangered.
The convocation at the White House
of the Ambassadors Of the four prin-
cipal Latin American republics and the
Presidents frank talk and request to
these republics to use their influence in
Cuba in order to avoid an undesired
American military expedition has had
a beneficial effect on their govern
mentS. but it is not clear yet whether
an eventual landing will not be misin-
terpreted by the public opinion OF those
countries That public opinion Is now
thoroughly prepared to see an American
landing. but it depends entirely on what
the landed force will do in Cuba be-
fore the people of South America will
decide whether America is playing fair
or not.
