CONTRACT FILE
PLAN RAPED

Conditions under which con-
tracts with farmers in the acre
age reduction campaigns of the
Agricultural Adjustment Admin
istration are being filed have
drawn complaints from both Of
ficials and employees.
Higher-ups in the farm unit
have called attention to the fact
that the filing cabinets cannot
be locked, and are located in
public halls of the south building
of the Department of Agriculture,
where the records might conceiv-
ably be rifled or inspected by
outsiders.
Lighting in the halls, where
many clerks are at work all day
filing the papers, is claimed to
be very poor, resulting in serious
eye-strain. No general protest
has been made by the workers
however, as they say they are
afraid of their jobs"

Circuit Court

Strict, licensed control over
Prince Georges county dance halls
was demanded by the Circuit
Court grand jury in its report yes
terday.
Amendment Of the road house
laws Of the county to include
dance halls in it's provisions was
recommended by the jury to State
Senator L. G. Sasscer and mem
berS Of the house of delegates.

islature, which will meet to con-
slider liquor regulation, the jury
said.

chase a $100 license to hold more

ing in unsatisfactory conditions in
some parts Of our county," the
report said.
The grand jury, after quizzing
eonstables Of the county, recon-
mended to the Board Of County

are appointed"
