No Serious Defects In
State Pension Status

Lee Dopkin, chairman of the PEN
sion Committee of the Board of State
Aid and Charities, termed as Centre
ly wrong" any impression that the
Maryland old age pension status con-
tains SERIOUS defects" which will pre-
clude T deral cooperation in payment
pensions.
Dopkin said the Maryland law,
passed at the 1885 session of the Cen
eral Assembly, must undergo only one
minor change. That change can be
made at the special session next
Winter, he said, and will put the State
in a position to receive all available
Federal aid.
The present Maryland law requires
that applications for pensions must
have been citizens for at least Is
years. Under the Federal law, no
citizenship requirement can be i'm
posed.

You Can't Get Away
With Things Nowadays

Two prominent young business
men of Rockville recently visited
New York City. They refused to
tell We editor the reason for the
trip. Alas, they reckoned without
the swiftness and surety of modern
communication.
The cat is out of the bag. This
week we received a letter from
Jack Dempsey saying these two
gents were present at his preten-
tious restaurant at least one even

WOOdfield Grange Holds
Farm And Home Show

The First Annual Farm & Home
Show was held by the Woodfeld
Grange Monday evening in the
Grange Hall.
Approximately 500 entries were ex-
hibited, the quality of which caused
the judges much debate in the final
placings.
The poultry department deserves
comment in that it included some of
the finest bred stock in Montgomery
County. The Leghorn entries were
particularly of fine quality.
Every department was well filled
and the fact that all entries were so
outstanding dispels any fear that
Montgomery Agriculture is on the
wane.
]. Roland Ward, Lecturer of the
Grange, had charge of the show.
The Judges were: Albert A. Ady,
Asst. Co. Agent; o. w. Anderson,
County Agent and Edythe Turner,

THE ROCKVILLE CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE, which has so long
sought to soft-pedal the question of
getting new business into the COM
munity, is now whole-hearted in sup
port OF the proposed plan to erect a
Government Biological Station on the
Rockville pike. The unit would be a
credit to the county and a consider
able pay roll might be enticed to
Rockville. There would be nothing, as
lar as we can judge, which would de-
tract from the appearance of the
boulevard.

many of the New Deal policies adopt

Obligations Of Grand
Jurors To The County

force, and choose the laws we will not
enforce. Every law on the statute
books represented the will of the peo-
pie and it does not make any differ
ence whether you OF / approve or dis
approve it is our duty to enforce the
law as we find them on the books.
"Can you imagine what the condi-
tions would be if we had Judge or
Ia States Attorney and Jury who
would say we like this law, we think
it is good one, we will enforce it.
Another matter I wish to call to
your attention is the fact that this
county is in peculiar situation be-
cause of it's proximity to large city,
Washington, and when a drive is put
on there against underworld charact-
ers, the natural tendency is for them
to float into this county. This county
always had reputation of being a
place of good homes and a place
where the law can not be corrupted,
and we want it understood by all peo-
pie who expect to come into this coun-
ty to violate laws that the people will
not stand for it and that they can rest
assured that if they are caught and if
convicted they will be punished
severely.
II think it is especially important
that you members of the grand jury
who come from the districts bordering
on the city of Washington, should
bring to the attention of the jury any
violations of the laws which you know
of even though they have not been
presented to the states attorney.
Eternal Vibilance Is The Price Of
Liberty and if we expect to keep our
county clean of criminals, disorderly
houses, gambling houses, we must
clamp down on them hard.
"You will only indict on evidence
presented to you in the grand jury
room. You must not let anyone infiu-
ence you in regard to what you should
or should not do and you should not
let any one talk to you about what
should or should not be done in the
grand jury room. The law requires
that certain statutes be brought to
your attention:
Judge Woodward read the statutes
referring to abortion, narcotics, and
the defalcation of public officers.
"The defalcation of public office re-
fers to any public officer handling
public funds, and the law requires
that you investigate to determine if
any public officer is guilty of defalca-
ton.
"The law also requires that you in
spect the Jail, with reference to the
condition of the Jail, treatment of the
prisoners, etc.
sit is also required that you re-
port back every nine weeks unless
notified to the contrary by the clerk
of the court You will serve as the
grand jury for Montgomery County
until new jury is sworn"

Minister Gives Up

ny NIitN IFfSS
Adds ABABA. Oct. 12.-Count
Luigi VinCi-Gigliucci Italian minis
ter surrendered Italy'S legation to-
day and was conducted to a private
residence under guard
The minister's surrender came
after Serio-comic dispute with the
Ethiopian government over his GUST
ing from the country. He had won
his point and still was in Adds
Ababa, having refused to leave on a
special train for Djibouti as pre-
viously planned by the Ethiopian
government.
But Ethiopia did not abandon
the struggle and finally sent a note
to the count, demanding that be-
cause of the state of affairs he
should leave the legation and move
to other quarters. There, Ethiopia
promised, it would provide lodging
and other necessities.
The Italian minister acquiesced
and marched solemnly out of the
legation to new home not far
from the new palace where Emper-
or Halle Selassie lives.
The dispute, giving a note of re-
lief to the major armed conflict,
was a result Of the minister's devo-
ton to what he conceived to be his
duty-an Italian consul at Magalo
had not yet made his way to safety
and the minister would not leave
until he had.
