Luxury and quality of np- pointtnent distinguish the bodies and safety is given paramount at tention in the design of the chassis. They are being shown at the Moody Wilcox company on West Main street.
 Both the six cylinder and eight cylinder Hudsoi1s are entirely dif- ferent in appearance from their predecessors. The new sloping front grille presents a, highly modern ap- pearance. The V-type windshield and the entirely new styling of the hood, body and rear contours plain ly date these models as examples of the latest expression of the body designers art.
 The five basic new engineering developments which are to be found on the Hudson cars this year in- clude Radial Safety Control, which is an entirely new system of front end design, is introduced for the first time. Because of this new front end system, an entirely new and softer front spring can be used giv- ing rise to 6 better ride which Hudson has named aptly, the Rhythmic Ride. It also results in new steering control which Hudson has called Tru-Line Steering.
 Another of the five new engi- neering features on the Hudsons is the Automatic Draft Eiiminator by means of which all of the air cor1- ing into the car, in connection with the year-round ventilation system, is controlled and screened. The fifth is Duo Automatic

OUR TELEPHONE RATES

1t is true that the utilities often targets of unfair
or misguided public topedoes 1t is equally true that the
public utilities sometimes get by with practices which really
deserve widespread mention Here in Rockville have
gotten along fairly well with the utilities. 1t has not been
necessary to bring down austere uteances upon
the heads of either of the big companies which
with those necessities wont to term utilities"
But Rockville is serious when asks the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company consider from every
angle local setup regard rates. Most particularly
the business and other subscribers ask that the 15cent
rate from Rockville to Washington be reduced
In the light of rapid growth in recent years.
OF the apparent disparity in rates to Rockville and other
communities from the nations capital it appears only just
and equitable that this 15-cent rate be abandoned.
The request does not from a mere handful of
citizens large number of the subscribers seek THE lower
rate realizing at the time, that the telephone
pany has its problems and difficulties surmount
1t is unnecessary to into the details the Rockville
exchange situation at this time The matter has been
time and time again before the representatives of the te
phone company They recognize the sincerity of our de-
mand though they may fail to realize the weight
OF complaint Any action which may been taken
has been held up first by the recently settled before
the Supreme Court and now because of contemplated
conference between the telephone company officials the

Any action which may favoraby result to telephone
subscribers from this conference cannot least directly
aid Rockville It will be up the telephone company to
should the commission order Therefore, the people of
Rockville should keep in touch with both the telephone
and the Public Service Commission and attempt
to get local rates fairly adjusted amicable manner
The Chamber of Commerce has committee working on
the question: Other civic groups and the Individual sub
scribers should cooperate We need hurricane
tactics nor yet need we be content to dily-daly.

Governor Nice To
Seek Federal Funds
For Old-Age Pension
Maryland Statute Conflicts
With Government Regulations;
To Submit To Legislature

Steps to assure Maryland of FEEDER
al funds for old-age pension payments
during the first quarter of 1886 were
taken this week by Gov. Harry w.
Nice.
Gov. Nice wrote John G. Winant.
chairman Of the Federal Security
Board, that Maryland was following
Federal pension requirements to the
letter, despite the fact that the Mary
land law impose restrictions which
conflict with the Federal regulation.
The Maryland law prohibits pay
ment of old-age pensions to persons
who have not been citizens of the
United States for at least Is years.
Federal regulations do not allow such
restrictions, and if the Maryland
statute is enforced the State will not
receive Federal aid.
The Governor wrote that amend
ments to bring Maryland's law into
conformity with Federal regulations
would be submitted at special ses-
sion of the State Legislature early
next year.
II am quite positive there will be
no difficulty at all in making the
changes required when our Legisla-
ture meets in January, since the
same legislative body passed the pres
ent law without a dissenting vote in
the last session." the Governor wrote.
The 1885 act providing for old-age
pensions appropriates $1,5OO,OO0 year.
ly for that purpose. The funds come
from the 1 per cent gross receipts tax,
which expires next March 81.
The special session either must re-
enact the gross receipts levy or pro-
vide new taxes if funds for the PEN
sions are to be available after March
81.

Izaak WaltOnites
Deposit 700 Bass
In Seneca Stream
Large-Mouth Specimens, Weigh
ing About 2 Pounds, For
PrOpagating Purposes

Approximately 700 large-mouth
black bass, obtained from the State
Conservation Commission, were sew.
eral days ago deposited in the Eight
Mile Level" near Seneca, which is a
body of water the Rockville Chapter
of the Izaak Walton League is in
charge of for propagating purposes,
it was reported at the monthly meet
ing of the chapter by Joseph Fisher,
chairman Of the Stocking and Hatch
cry Committee.
The fish, which average about two
pounds in weight, were purchased by
the State Conservation Commission
from commercial fishermen of Perry
vile, Md, and were, it was stated,
splendid specimens. Good results were
predicted.
DIR. E. Russell Cooke, chairman of
the Education and Publicity Commit
tee, informed the Chapter that at a
recent meeting of the Bethesda
Chevy Chase American Legion Post,
which he addressed on conservation,
he was assured that that organization
could be depended upon to cooperate
with other county groups in further
ing the conservation progress of the
Chapter.
Announcement was made by Owen
Knight, in charge of formation of
Junior Izaak Walton League chapters
among public school children, that the
| officers of the junior chapter recently
organized at Montgomery Blair High
School, Silver Spring, with &c mem
bers, would be installed at the school
the night of December IL and that
a program in connection Herewith is
expected to prove interesting. DR.. M
Darcy Magee, president of the Dis
trict of Columbia Chapter and vice
president of the national organization
is scheduled for an address, he stated
Roy Hoover, Of Thurmont, was the
speaker of the evening. He outlined
the program of &he CCC outfit near
Lewistown, Nd, for winter feeding
of game of various kinds in that Sec
ten. He also told something about
raising game of different kinds in
which he has been engaged for long
time. c. B. Kuhn, of Frederick, also
addressed the Chapter briefly.
In memory of George A. M. Kelch-
ner, member of the Chapter, whose
death occurred recently, the thirty-five
members present stood in silence for
a brief period. Two new members
were admitted, increasing the enroll
ment to around 100.

State Library
Commission Urges
Book Fund Renewal
Newly Organized Body Appoint
ed By Governor Nice Holds
First Meeting

A demand for restoration of book
funds for the Maryland State Library
Commission was made at meeting
of the Commission, newly reorganized
under the Craftsmanship of DIR.
Joseph H. Apple, President Emeritus
of Hood College.
The meeting held last week was the
first since the appointment of the new
Commission of Governor Nice, the
members being: DIR. Joseph H. Apple,
Frederick, Md, President; Mrs. Char
lotte Newell, Baltimore, Md, Secre-
tary; Mrs. Arthur B. Bibbins, Balti-
more, Md; Mrs. Eva C. Chase, River
dale, Md; Miss Emile A. Doetsch,

Elkton, Md, State Librarian, lex
officio); DR.. Joseph L. Wheeler, Libr-
arian, Enoch Prott Free Library Bal
Itimore, lex oficio); DR.. Albert s.
Cook State Superintendent Of Schools.
The Commission heard the report of
Miss Abilene J. Pratt, State Director
of the Commission, who has under
way an elaborate project utilizing
WPA workers for the mending Of
books owned by the Commission and
owned by local Libraries throughout
the state, that 202 persons are now
engaged in this work, and it is esti-
mated that during the next twelve
months, there will be 444 workers re-
pairing and reconditioning thousands
of books to meet the demands of the
people throughout the state.
Attention was called, however, to
the reduction from 100000 to
$4,000 in the amount allowed in the
biennial appropriation for the Com
mission to purchase books to send out
in travelling libraries to rural schools
and small villages. In 1884 the cir
culation of such books was 331 ,44O, in
1888 it was 437,720, but in 1884 it had
dropped to 363,84O owing to the lack
of books.
A Committee from the Commits
sion will request reconsideration Of
this budget item with the intention Of
securing an early addition to take
care of the needs.
The aroused interest of the people
of the state was reported in the gem
eral library situation, and the in
creased demand for books on the part
of old and young was cited as the
basis for more active program on
the part of the State Library Com
mission according to Miss Pratt, the
Director.
