VOLUNTARY cooperative effort under permiSSive
' legislation which will carry safeguards against
its misuse is the road TO conservation Of Americas
mineral resources. So says Prof c. K. Leith. vice
chairman of President Roosevelts Planning Commit
tee for Mineral Policy.
Prof Leth who also is the geologist of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, has drawn up seven-point
policy by which conservation can be obtained. The
need for conservation is great because in many fields
the supply of hgh-grade ores will begin to run out
in 20 to 40 years His seven plankS are:
Continuance of chronological and scientific i'm
provementS already under way. Recovery and Elf
cheney in mining. concentrating and smelling have
been greatly improved he says and further advances
can be expected.
Control OF production. He advocates the bal
ancing of supply and demand in our So-called sur
plus industries at price level which will permit OF
proper conservation practice.
This is to be accomplished b. voluntary co-opera-
tive efforts OF the industry under government super
vision through legislation which will except them
from the antitrust law, the exemptions to be in the
interest of conservation with adequate public super
vision.
II EGALIZATION of some method of co-ordinating
l. the highly chaotic efforts of the individual states
under their police powers and the support OF any
collective efforts the states may attempt.
Since the Supreme Court decision. Washington is
struggling with the problem of finding author
ity for any national control Prof. Lelth says. He
adds that much of the authority necessary for pro-
duction control exists only in the police powers
of the states.
The four remaining planks in his platform are:
Federal control of interstate shipments of min
erals in Of quotas set by the state police powers
Possible abolition Of ad vaorem taxes in favor Of
taxes Of one kind or another on current production.
THE use of tariffs for the surplus group which will
Il protect any domestic economy built up in the
interest Of conservation which may result in some
further sacrifice Of our already dwindling export
trade because Of the necessary maintenance of
domestic prices above the world level.

or in whole from foreign sources, to deSiSt from
tariff program which merely haStenS the exhaustion
OF our limited high-grade supplies and to substitute
direct expenditure by the government on the prob
lem OF finding additional supplies.
Cooperation and public supervision are COM

Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS P1SHBEIN-

TINE skin occasionally becomes exceedingly sensi-
l. tive to certain dye substances. The result is an
eruption irritation which appears every time the
skin in contact with anything containing the
dye Other skins sensitive to SOAP water, heat,
friction, and similar irritants.
1t is possible to find out whether the skin IS sen
sitive to such a substance by what IS called the
patch test However, this test not be made with
out some understanding Of medical technic and
methods
In the patch test little of the substance which
is supposed to be bringing about the eruption is
applied to the skin for "a hours. Thereafter the
skin will be found exceedingly irritated at the spot
wherS th2 application was made
TINE substance most commonly causing irritation
L in dyed hair furs and similar substances is dye
preparation called paraphenyendiamine or Of
its oxidation products In 1000 routine tests made by
investigator, per cent of the persons tested
were shown to be sensitive to this substance
Whereas fur and hair most frequently dyed
with paraphenylendiamine, other dyes may be used
for fabrics. When there is sensitivity to a dyed
fabric the doctor gets an indication of the fact by
the limitation of the eruption.
For instance. in case the dye is associated with
a dress or frock the eruption will be found limited
TO the upper trunk and the arms, where the frock
is in contact with the skin.
The portions of the skin not in contact, such
those protected by shoulder straps will be found free
from the eruption.
WHEN the irritation is caused by dye in the
w stockings, the hatband the gloves or some
sihilar article of apparel it will be found limited to
the regions covered by these articles
OF course the first step in getting rid of such
eruption to discontinue the wearing of the garment
responsible
The specialist in diseases of the skin also will
supply lotion ointment to prevent itching and
to aid healing.

Discipline Is Too Strict

TINE whisky and gin customers do not find 1t
1 necessary to visit the dstillery and have per-
sonal meeting with the man who shovels the grain
into the vat the who turns the crank to drain
it off when the corruption is complete and the foul
mess is ready for barrels It makes difference to
him what field produced the grain, whether the
farmer had a daughter how many kegs were OBJ
tanned from particular vat or mash.
This happy Indifference is in sharp contrast to
the pose of the wine connoisseur who will undertake
to tell you not only whose hands picked the grapes
from which given bottle OF wine made 10 years
ago. but whether it raining that day and whether
the bottle has been lying on its belly or its SIDE.
Obviously, the inexperienced person is not tempted
tC try wine when the best of wine is like the worst
to him anC all wine is vinegar. anyway. And natur-
ally he is not to the support of struggling
native industry by constant reminders that he is
hopeless ignoramus whose barbarian taste it
would be a great pity to waste anything but the
leavings of the meanes vines in the poorest vine
yards in the worst of years.
To drink wine successfully he must abstain from
smoking before and after he must sip for gentle
anagesia when he would rather gulp for excite
ment and do without the ketchup with which it is
his to flood his provisions. The discipline is
toe much like that of the United States Military
Academy and the results the basis of the returns
since repeal, have not been considered to be worth
the ordeal.

Ter scale, they are made exactly
the same as feature pictures. The
principal difference lies in the
cost and gross receipts. The aver
age cost is $4,000 and the average
return about $4,000.
Naturally. the stars of these
comedies receive lower salaries
than those in feature pictures. the
top being about $1,000 weekly. And
the pictures are usually made in
10 days.
One-reel musicals and novelties,
which are steadily gaining in
popularity. are now being pro-
duced by nearly all major COM
panieS
Generally speaking. their pro-
duction follows the same line as
that of feature. But they sell
dom use more than two sets and
are made in two or three days.
T iSUALLY their actual produc-
~ ton cost is around $4,000,
although the total cost is jumped
considerably when high-priced
persons must be engaged for
them. The Pete Smith shorts
come in this category, with Pete
probably receiving more than is
spent on the rest of the picture.
The same holds true when an
important orchestra or vaudeville
headliner is featured.
Travelogs are of value princi-
pally because of the bit of wan
derlust that turks in most hearts.
An imaginative person can watch
them and actually believe he is
going right along with the cam
eramen.
Very often the cameramen on
these little pictures have no def
mite assignments. They roam at
large, seeking unusual locales or
places of great scenic beauty.
Since the expense of taking
sound equipment with them would
be 500 great. they shoot with 81
lent cameras. Explanatory re-
marks and background music are
added later in the studios here.

Quaker Settlement AT Sandy Spring
Founded By Lovers Of Rural Life
First Land Grant OF NeighbOrhOod Made In 1715-Num
Der Of Homes Dating Back Nearly 200 Years Still
Stand-Interesting Events Annually Recorded
BIZ MRS. FLORENCE M. BOND

Nestled in Maryland hills, is situat-
ed one of the most picturesque and
historic spots in the middle Atlantic
States. This community is known as
Sandy Spring.
This unique neighborhood was set
tied by the Quakers in about IT'S, and
while it is located so near the Nations
Capital, there are many who live near
this lovely old rural community who
do not know the facts concerning its
early settlers, who established these
old homes of interest and beauty,
where touches of early architecture
may be seen and adm:red. but seldom
purchased for Sandy Springer is
loathe to part with his property.
In possession of the Stabler and
Thomas families today is portion of
"Snowden Manor" the first recorded
land grant of Sandy Spring vicinity
bearing the date of IT'S.
"Old Clifton" the home of William
John Thomas, the fifth direct descend
ent to occupy this charming old place,
was built in 1740 and is on the origi-
nal grant, as is Brooke Manor" home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Roger B. Farquhar,
which was built in 1773. Norwood"
owned by Mr.. and Mrs. Milton Ban
croft is another of the lovely old
homes, being celebrated for its old box
walk which is nearly 200 years old.
Charley Forest" built by James
Brooke in 1928 is located in the heart
of the neighborhood, originally COM
prising 1000 acres, the grant given to
Major John Blandford in 1716, the
farm being now owned by Charles
Ray, President of the Brightwood
Citizens Association, who with Mrs.
Ray make this charming old place
their home.
Tradition tells us that at the time
of the building of Charley Forest it
was the only frame house dwelling

along the meridian between Maryland
and Canada.
Failing Green" a typically Colon
ial old brick home is owned by Miss
Mary B. Brooke and her sister, Mrs.
w. French Green, being direct de-
scendents of one, Roger Brooke, an
early settler, the sisters having in
their possession records showing the
home was built in 1773, three years
before the signing of the Declaration
of independence.
This is an especially interesting old
home, the bricks of which it is built
having been burned close by on the
place. There are a number of beautiful
pieces, of rare old furniture in the pos
session of the sisters.
In the old Meeting House of the
Friends which was built in 1917, al
though it is recorded that there was
one first on the estate of Brooke
Grove, showing the date of 1928, was
housed the celebrated early Colonial
wood stove, now in the possession of
the Smithsonian Institution, its mate
being kept as a relic in the present
Meeting House.

bert Hoover occasionally came for
worship during their occupancy of the
White House.
Sandy Spring has the distinction also
of being centre of education and cul-
ture, this can be readily seen when
one visits the old homes of Fair Hill,
Fulford, Rockland, Cedarstone ETC., all
having been noted schools, Rockland
being one of the latter schools, estab-
lished about 1880 by Henry c. Halo
well, son of the educator, Benjamin
Hallowell, who was the teacher of
General Robert E. Lee.
Some of the old characters OF inter
est and of whom Sandy Spring boasts
as distinguished, citizens, were Isaac
Briggs, friend of Thomas Jefferson,
and surveyor of the National Post
road to New Orleans; Roger Brooke
fancy, Chief Justice of the U. S.
Supreme Court, was member of the
Brooke family, and whose influence
has been felt on American history;
Thomas Moore, pioneer in scientific
farming, also a friend of Thomas
Jefferson, and inventor of the first
refrigerator; Philip Thomas, first
president of the B. & 0. R. R., who
was born near Colesville, the old
house still standing in the vicinity;
Edward Stabler, artist and engraver,
maker of the seal of Maryland, whose
old home stands back of the old
