Middletow1i, more than 18 miles.

MlddletoWn, more than 10 miles.
Battling Is foot drifts, the veteran
carrier struggled into Middletown at
2 o'clock the same day, exhausted.
At times it was impossible to walk
and for hundreds of yards he was
forced to crawl or roll, pushing the
heavy mail sack ahead of him.
When Loller staggered into War
wick, Md, after having covered Ia
miles of his trip, he was given coffee
and rested at the home of Amos Will
son. Wilson attempted to dissuade
Loller, but when he saw that Loller
was determined to see that the mail
went through, he travelled the rest of
the distance with him to see that he
made it in good shape. Sharing the
sack between them they bucked the
snow which in many places covered
the road fence high from side to side.
After short rest, Loller shouldered
his sack of new mail, despite the at
tempt of Postmaster Shallcross to get
him to rest overnight, and once more
started on the long trek to the isolated
village.

SALISBURY MAYOR COM
MENDS MAN ON BRAVERY

A letter congratulating Carl Thorn
burg, Cherryville, N. c., on the he
roic recue of his fellow truck driver
Louis Snead, following an accident
and expressing sympathy in connect
ion with the death of the formers
father the same afternoon was Tues
day dispatched to Mr.. Thornburg, by
Mayor E. Sheldon Jones.
The communication was as follows:
Salisbury, Md.
January 20, 1885.
Mr.. Carl Thornburg,
Cherryville, N. c.
My Dear Mr.. Thornburg:-
Permit me to congratulate you upon
your splendid act of heroism per-
formed here early yesterday when you
rescued your travelling companion
and I understand intimate friend, Mr.
Louis Snead, from the icy waters Of
the Wicomico River, with the ther-
mometer standing at 2 degrees below
zero, after your truck had plunged in
to that stream.
Mr.. Snead, too, I feel is deserving
of commentator as his first thought
I understand, was for your safety
which he manifested by calling to
awaken you when his truck became
uncomfortable.
Such devotion to one another, in an
hour of peril, is what gives true ex-
preston and meaning to the word
friend"

lenses. but actually depriving them
of safe roads they have right to de-
mand.
"There is no basis in equity or JUS
tice to saddle upon motorists burdens
that should be borne by the general
public. There is neither legal nor
moral justification to tax motor We
hicle owners and operators for 'emer-
gency relief BY using motorist funds
for the latter purpose the State will,
in effect, throw out of employment
men with jobs, to hand over their pay
checks to men already out of employ
ment.
"It should also be emphasized that
the real purpose of the expenditure
of Federal public works funds will be
defeated if the State is permitted to
divert motor vehicle and gasoline
taxes to uses other than highways and
highway safety. The present Hayden
Cartwright Act provides that any
State diverting highway funds from
highway purposes will have it's Fed
eral Aid reduced in like sum up to
one-third of the total Federal Aid al
lotted. 1t is urged that this limita-
ton should be made even more dras-
tic, so that the penalty will be severe
upon the state which creates addition
al unemployment by diverting its own
highway dollars to other purposes"

End CORN HOG
PRODUCTION
PROGRAM BEGAN

While Maryland farmers are pre-
pairing to launch the second corn-hog
production control program, pros
poets for an increased export market
for pork and lard remain at a low
level. In fact, the continued low level
of foreign trade in hog products is
one of the principal reasons why adj
justment is being continued. Ship
ments of pork from the United States
showed slight upward trend in 1884,
but this was offset by decline in
export of lard.
Great Britain, our principal export
market for hog products, continues
to restrict pork shipments from nom
empire countries, including the United
States, by means of import quotas.
Under the British quota system, the
United States is allotted slightly over
per cent of the total volume of cur
ed pork allowed entry from non-em-
pire countries.
Germany, second ranking buyer of
hog products from the United States,
limited monthly lard imports in 1884
to 40 per cent of the volume imported
during the corresponding months of
1931-33. Restrictions imposed on the
conversion of money into foreign ex-
change also reduced German lard i'm
ports and now only negligible guam
tity of lard is being shipped to Ger
. many from the United States.
At one time, the United States was
exporting over one-fourth of it's pack
ing house lard; about one-fourth of
this exported volume in turn went to
Germany.

GOLDEN SWEET
POTATO GROWS
in POPULARITY

Since it's introduction to the COM
mercial potato trade in 1880 the Mary
land Golden Sweet Potato has steadily
increased in popularity with both pro-
ducer and consumer and last year in
Wicomico county alone more than 300
acres were planted to this particular
variety, it is announced by John w.
Heuberger, assistant specialist in
plant pathology for the University of
Maryland Extension. He says the
new potato is popular with the produc-
er because it yields well and brings
a top price on the market, and is liked
by the consumer because Of its at
tractive yellow flesh and good cooking
quality.
The new potato was developed in
1928 by Thomas H. White, Of the Uni
versity of Maryland Experiment Sta
ton, while testing selections of Big
Stem Jersey potatoes for yellow col
ored skins and flesh.
In testing the selections, Mr.. White
noticed that two hills of the Big Stem
had salmon colored skins and yellow
flesh. He preserved these carefully
during the winter, bedded them in the
spring and produced as many plants
as possible. These were then plant
ed alongside the original plants and
when, after harvest, he found that all
the plants had potatoes which were
uniformly alike in skin and flesh col
or, he was convinced bud spore had
been discovered which was so well
fixed in character that all the buds
would be the same thereafter.
DIR. Heuberger points out that the
stock of the Maryland Golden Sweet
can be kept pure by roguing at dig
ging time, any potatoes not showing
the Enthusiastically golden salmon
color of the skin, being discarded.
More than twenty acres of this seed
was certified during 1884 and anyone
desiring seed may secure a list OF
growers from DIR. Heuberger, at Col
lege Park, Maryland.

Upper Silesians
Being Stirred By
Educational Row

WARSAW, Poland, March 30
(UP).-Strained feelings yester-
day among the Polish population
in Polish Upper Silesia against
the German authorities in Ger
man Upper Silesia over public
education problems may cause a
formal protest through the en-
bassy in Berlin. -.
There have been no antl-Ger-
man demonstrations in the kato-
WITT vicinity in this area, how
ever, although four days ago the
so-called Insurgents league at
Katowitz held a protest meeting,
denouncing the German educa-
tional authorities at Beuthen.
The conflict arose when the
German authorities refused to
transform a Polish private high
school at Beuthen, German Upper
Silesia, into a public school. The
Poles protested, but the Germans
explained the refusal was correct
because the school has been in ex-
istence only two years, and under
German law no school existing
only two years can be transform
ed into a public school, with pub
lie support.
The Polish Upper Silesian diet
voted to ask the Warsaw govern
ment to take necessary steps"
but no demonstrations have oc-
Cured.

SISTER MARY'S MENU
KY MARY E. DAGUE
NEA Service Staff Writer.


CHESS l was born a crusader.
L I'm always campaigning for
something, especially food. And
most especially good food that is
neglected by the popular taste.
There's tripe for instance-eas-
ily digested. nourishing, quite
cheap, lending itself to many ways
of serving and perfectly delicious
IL you know what to do with it.
Yet how few housewives use it to
add variety and flavor to their
meals.
There are two varieties of tripe,
plain and honeycomb. The honey
comb kind is considered the more
delicate. Although tripe is care
fully cleaned before it is sold, it
requires thorough washing and
the removal of any bits of loose
skin.
Picked tripe is used like fresh,
but does not require as long cook
ing. The water in which picked
tripe is simmered should be
thrown away because it contains
excess acid absorbed by the meat
during the picking process.
Prefers Long Cooking " :
Fresh tripe should be cooked
in boiling water for ten minutes
at least before using, but prefer
to cook it several hours in sailed
calculated water. This makes 1t
very tender. Put it on to cook in
cold water, bring to the boiling
point and let boil up. Skim care
fully and simmer for three hours.
One pound Of tripe will serve
six persons because there Is no
waste in bone. fat or gristle. Com
bined with other materials, even
less is needed
Tripe combined with oysters in
a border of savory rice makes a
splendid dish to serve for an in
formal supper. With hot rolls. a
tray Of assorted relishes such as
ripe and stuffed olives, celery
hearts, rad:shes and pickles, apri-
cot ice-box pudding and plenty of
coffee. there's a supper.

SECURITY BILL
UP NEXT WEEK
Final Preparatory Action
Was Expected by Com
mittee Today

WASHINGTON, Mar. 80. (UP).
Preparing for next weeks drive
in the house on social security,
the house ways and means COM
mittee planned to complete &C
ton on the administration bill TO-
day. :.
The committee eliminated a
section yesterday which would
have permitted the government
to sell annuities guaranteeing the
purchasers an income of 500 a
month after IS. This was the
onlv section of the bill affecting
~ersons earning more than $4,000
a year. :,
Several days ago the commit
tee reduced the annuity to a
maximum of $50 a month. The
vote was close, but yesterday it
was stricken out bv vote of II
to 4. M&
Elimination of the voluntary
annuities came after long discus
sion of the effect the provision
would have on private insurance
companies.
Meanwhile congressman favor
ing the Townsend S200-a-month
old age pension plan modified
their measure to eliminate any
specific monthly annuity. in the
hope of overcoming the oblec-
tons of some of their colleagues
to the bill.
Representative John Stephen
McGroarty, D., CAL, sponsor of
the Townsend plan, said he would
introduce the modified bill next
week. He said the Townsend
forces would stake their fortunes
on the 2 per cent transaction tax
and on inheritance taxes to raise
the billions required to finance
the proposed annuities.
The house finally approved the
$401, 998,170 war department ap-
preparation bill and sent it to the
senate for action on several minor
amendments. The bill carries
S21,OO0,0OO more than budget
estimates, chiefly because of the
senate's authorization of DO
per cent increase in the size of
the army.
Representative w. P. LANDER
ton, R., Kan, seized the oppor-
tunity during debate to attack
the "iingoistic" tendencies of the
administration especially this
display of nose-thumbing toward
the Japanese people, almost GER
tain to inflame whatever feeling
against the United. States they
hay have" - -.
