DEMOCRATIC GUBERNATORIAL
RACE

The race for Maryland's Demo-
cratic gubernatorial nomination be7
came four-cornered last week with
the announcement of George l.. Rad
criffe, of his candidacy. Mr.. Rad
cliffe is a native of Cambridge. The
other Democratic candidates for this
much sought nomination are: Gov.
Albert G. Richie four-tlme chief
executive of the State; Mayor How
ard w. Jackson, of Baltimore, and
DR.. Charles H. Conley, Frederick
physician.
Some time ago movement was
started on the Eastern Shore to
draft" Radcliffe as compromise
candidate" for the nomination.
Senator Tydings Immediately gave
his support to the movement.
Shortly after he announced his can
didacy, Radcliffe telephoned to the
other three candidates, personally
informing them of his decision
Governor Richie and Mayor Jackson
replied that they would not with
draw from the race. DR.. Conley
made no statement.
During Roosevelt's Presidential
campaign in 1882, Radcliffe directed
his drive in Maryland. At the spe-
cial request of the President last
year, Radcliffe accepted the appoint
ment as regional advisor for the
public works administration.
Like the Democrats, the Republi-
cans have no dearth of gubernatorlal
aspirants, H. Webster Smith, Harry
w. Nice, Harry T. Phoebus and
Mayor Quenstedt having announced
their candidates..
Senator Philip Lee Goldsborough
is also being urged to run.
On the theory that a good fight
stirs up the voters and puts life into
a campaign, the coming primary
should be lively one in both DEM
ocratic and Republican parties.

1t is reported that Hollywood pro-
ducers have raised fund of ST.
100000 to combat a censorship of
their pictures which, they say, is en-
dangering the existence of the film
industry.
Those who prefer decency on the
screen reply that if that part of the
movie industry is threatened which
depends for it's existence upon the
portrayal of salacious and degrading
phases of life, it would be good rid
dance of bad rubbage were it CEN
sored out of existence.
Those who criticise this phase of
the industry hold that the movie is
one of the most potent educational
agencies ever devised; that it can be
used either for good or bad; that
far too long the profit motive has
been permitted to control with utter
Indifference upon the part of many
producers, of the moral effects of
displayed smut, impudicity, common
ribaldry, infidelity, social filth and
crime.

FARM REAL ESTATE VALUES

Farm Real Estate Values, includ
ing all farm lands with improve
ments, in Maryland on March 1,
1884, are estimated by the Bureau
of Agricultural Economics, U. S. De
partment of Agriculture to be the
same as a year ago, according to the
Maryland Crop Reporting Service.
Using the 1912-1914 average as a
base, Maryland's farm real estate
had by 1920 enhanced in value sc
per cent, or nearly two-thirds great
err than it's value for the period of
1912-1914. By 1925, however, its
value had swung in the other direc-
ton and declined to 131 per cent of
the base period, or a decrease of 35
per cent from it's high peak of 1920.
During the next five year period,
ending in 1880, Farm Real Estate
Values continued to decrease but not
so rapidly, falling only s per cent,
and for the following year (1931)
the decline amounted to only per
cent.
The years of 1892 and 1888
brought further . sharp declines in
values and in 1882 they were only
per cent above the pre@ar values,
having fallen during the year IA
per cent, which was the greatest de-
cline in any one year since 1921,
but not quite so great as the de-
crease of / 6 per cent which occurred
in 1888 BY this time farm real es
tate values in the State had decreas-
ed from the high point of 166 per
cent of the 1912-1914 average val
ues to 80 per cent, or total decline
of 76 per cent from the high point.
At present the values are estimat-
ed at 80 per cent of the pre-war per-
iod, or 10 per cent below the
average values in 1912-1914, which
compares with the values last year.
OF the As States, only IL report
comparative values higher than
those for Maryland, and rs most of
them report equal or higher values
than for 1888, ray of hope appar-
rently is evident.

Despite the growing Importance of
American trust business in recent
years examining officials have never
given to trust departments the atten

Now the Federal Reserve System. in
conjunction with the Comptroller OF
the Currency, has undertaken to bring
the examination of trust departments
up to the level of commercial bank ex

Experts in trust work are being EN-
ployed by the various Federal Reserve
Banks These experts will head the
special STATS of trust examiners in the
twelve Federal Reserve Districts. Spe-

STATE LAW REQUIRES SCHOOL
CHILDREN TO BE VAC
CINATED

Notices have been sent, in a num-
Der of counties, to the parents of
children who will enter school in the
fall, by the county health officer and
county superintendent of schools,
jointly, reminding them of the State
law which requires all children to be
vaccinated against smallpox before
they can be enrolled in any public
school in Maryland. The parents
are advised to take their children to
their family doctor for three things
"a general physical examination, so
that conditions that need attention
may be cared for during the sum-
mer; to be vaccinated against small
pox and to be protected against
diphtheria, if these have not been
done already.
Urging prompt attention to these
reminders, DR.. r. H. Riley, Director
of the State Department of Health,
said that the reasons for doing so
are so clearly presented in the no
tees sent to parents in certain coun-
ties, that he would like TO broad
cast them to mothers and fathers in
other parts of the State. Here is
what they say about protection
against smallpox and diphtheria:
"You are urged to have your child
vaccinated against smallpox during
the summer so that the child's arm
will have healed by the time school
begins. Children who attend school
with sore arms may have the scabs
knocked off and the arm may be-
come infected. This is dangerous,
causes trouble and often works a
hardship on the child because of
suffering and loss of school time.
Vaccination should be done now
while you have the child at home
and can care for him.
your child should also be pro-
tected against diphtheria. This is
as important as having him protect
ed against smallpox and should be
done Immediately, as it takes about
two months for the protection to be
fully established. The material
used for this protection is called
Toxoid. 1t has been perfected great
ly in recent years so that while
formerly three injections were nee
essary, now only one is needed.
This one injection causes little or no
discomfort 1t is not necessary to
remind you how terrible diphtheria
is and how often it is fatal Take
your child to your family physician
now. Tell him you want Toxid tor
your child, if he has not had it Al
ready, and that you want him vacci
mated against smallpox"
when it is realized" DR.. Riley
continued, "how large proportion
of the prospective first graders, who
have been examined at the child
HSdlIH COuleIeHCSS III preparation
for their admission to school, have
not been protected against these di-
seases, the necessity for these re-
minders is better understood. Last
year, for instance, it was found that
two out of every three of the white
children and one out of every two of
the colored had not been vaccinated
against smallpox. The need for pro-
lection against diphtheria was equal
ly great.
my advice to parents is Don't
wait until just before school opens.
Have the children protected against
these diseases, now"

Feb. Is First Day
| for Corn Loans
Applications Must Be In Hands Of
County Warehouse Boards
by That Date

Feb. % is the final date on which
applications for corn loans will be
accepted by county warehouse
boards in Minnesota, according to
Andrew Boss, University Farm st.
Paul who in this state is in charge
of the corn loan and production
control campaign for the Agricul-
tural Adjustment Administration.
Farmers who are planning to APP
ply for loans are requested to make
application as soon as possible to
their county agricultural agents
who will assign sealers to inspect
their cribs and grade their corn. If
the corn grade No. 4 or better and
is stored in suitable crib, the own
er of the corn will receive q farm
storage certificate which he may
use as collateral for a loan.
The Commodity Credit Corpora
ton lends As cen per measured
bushel of two and one-half cubic
feet on the basis of such security.
The loans bear four per cent in
terest and mature August 1, 1884, or
prior to that date if the cash price
or nearest future of No. corn
on the Chicago market should
reach rs cents per bushel. In case
that the loan is not repaid by Aug
ust I, the borrower may discharge
his obligation, including interest,
by Smelling the corn and delivering
it to the holder of the certificate
at the nearest railroad shipping
point.
Up to January 20, a total of $780,
473.58 had been loaned to Mime
sofa farmers by the Commodity
Credit Corporation and banks
which are allowed to accept this
paper and resell it to the govern
ment lending agency. Many other
farmers have had their cribs sealed
but have not yet used their storage
certificates as collateral for loans.
It is believed that the majority of
these will avail themselves of this
opportunity before March 1.

moved across country in a covered
wagon to Sank Centre, MINI Many
details of this long drive remained
wildly in her memory.
In 1885 she married e. Henry
Grundman, and together they
started long and very happy
married life, that reached at the
time of her death, forty-seven
years.
To the union were born six chill
dren, one of whom 1led in infancy,
and the remaining five survive her.
They are Mrs. Glenere Martin, of
Sioux City, Iowa. Ralph S. Grund-
man, of Pella; Mrs. Ruth Rogans,
Of Minneapolis; Mrs. Margaret Yer

man, Jr., of Anna, Ill. All Of the

In the Spring of 1894 Mr.. and
Mrs. Grundman came to Pella to
remain. Mrs. Grundman became a
loved and respected member of the
community in which she was al
ways interested. For many years
while she and her family lived just
north of Pella, she took an active
interest in the social affairs of the
community and of the Baptist
church, of which she was an active
member, and later when they NOV
ed to Pella, she continued to take
a keen interest in these commun-
fity building enterprises. She was
a valued member of the Women's
Federated club to which she al
ways willingly and unstintingly
contributed of her time and her
means.
Mrs. Grundman was always
kind, she was 10th to believe evil
of any one; hers was a temper
ment that could not be disturbed;
remained on even keel through
fair or stormy times, she thought
first always of everyone else, she
gave of her time and means 20
make others happy with never a
thought of herself. She was dearly
beloved of all her sons and daugh-
tiers, those her own and those &C
quired by marriage. The grand
children adored and idolized her for
never did she forget single one of
them. She leaves a great void in
the hearts of all who ever knew
her, a void that cannot be filed.
There is comfort in the knowledge
that she was so much loved and so
greatly appreciated by all Of her
family and trends. She sleeps
safely in the arms of the Saviour
whom she served well.

this city was torn wide open each

West Union Creamery Meeting
The stockholders of the West
Union Cooperative Creamery held
their annual meeting in the West
Union hall Thursday afternoon,
Feb. 8. A large number of the
patrons were present.
J. L. Johnson and J. J. Miller
were reelected as directors. The
report of the condition of the
creamery was read by the secretary,
H. J. Cans.
At the directors meeting which
followed the stockholders session,
Andrew Beste was elected as pres
ident; Nick Peterson, vice presi-
dent; H. J. Cans, secretary and
treasurer. Theodore Noeske was ap-
pointed as manager.
Considering the drought and lack
of feed throughout the West Union
vicinity the creamery held up
production very well. The average
net price of 22.33c paid shows up
very good for the volume produced.
