To MARYLAND

ANNAPOLIS, Md, March. 2.
Maryland must raise $8,000,000
as it's share of the relief bill for
the remainder 0f 1885, according
to reports from Washington. The
allotment of Federal Government
funds for this month, it was re-
ported also, are being held in
allegiance until the State takes
some steps toward raising the
fund.
Although Governor Nice said
he had heard nothing concern
ing the reports from Federal Re.
lief Administrator Harry l.. Hop
kins, the reports came indirectly
from the FERA in Washington.
Funds For Week
Maryland has just sufficient
funds to carry the State relief
program another week. The So
100000 goal set for the State,
according to some officials, is far
in excess Of what the State can
raise.
Governor Nice said he was I'M
informed whether the Federal
Government would assume re-
sponsibilitS for the State relief
program during March.
Several days ago Harry Green
stein, relief administrator for the
State, requested an allotment of
$1,800,000 for the current month.
He said he had received no re-
port on his request or on the re-
ports Of the 100000 goal fix
ing.
100000 Held Limit
Maryland officials estimated
the maximum which the State can
raise for the coming nine months
is 100000 and expressed fear
the Federal Government would
demand a higher goal.
Federal officials already have
begun to notify States of their al
lotments-four having been no.

Mother Wants Milder
Children's Programs

To the Editor of The Times:
Please thank that mother for
starting the campaign against
those bloodcu riding, nerve
wracking stories told over the
radio. I have a boy 10 years
old who will not leave the
radio during that time, dinner
or no dinner. When he does,
the pupils Of his eyes are di-
lated, his face is flushed, and
he seems to be in a daze.
He is afraid to walk from
one room to another, and has
become so irritable, due to
nerves, that I must forbid him
to turn ON the radio at that
time.
This week his school work
has improved very much.
Surely the sponsor could
find milder entertainment for
the children. MRS. A. w. D.

To RE-DEF|NE
SEA RIGHTS
Copyright, 1885, by International
News Service)


Americas traditional rights gov.
erning neutrality and freedom Of
the seas are to be left alone for
the time being.
In the face of strong opposition
from the Navy to any change and
the Senate's adverse vote on the
World Court issue, the State De-
partment, it was learned today,
has decided to shelve recommen-
dations whereby the United States
would modify certain of its tradi-
tional rights Of neutrality.
Presidents Idea
The recommendations were
drawn up by the State Depart
ment at the direction Of the PreSi-
dent, who was DESTROYS Of rede-
filming American neutrality rights
in the hope of preventing this
country from becoming involved
in any future wars that might
break out between the big powers.
Notifications of certain rights
governing the search by belliger-
ent warshipS of American vessels
on the high seas and the right of
American vessels to trade with ma
tionS at war were contemplated in
the recommendations.
The right Of American citizens
to enter danger zones and with
drawal of protection from nation.
ais who did so contrary to the
wishes of the Government also
were involved in the study made
by the State Department.
Adverse Report
The latter department requested
the Navy to submit report on
it's views concerning the proposed
modification of this country's ira
ditional stand on neutrality.
The Navy, it was learned, sub
mitted a report which expressed
the view that it not only saw no
reason for modification of exist
ing American neutrality rights
but many reasons against it. It
cited the latter in detail.
