TO ASK
FOR BLINPS
International News Service

Secretary of Commerce Roper
today revealed he is ready to ask
Congress for money to construct
q number of small dirigibleS to
be used along coastal areas for
inspection work.
At the same time, the Bureau
Of Air Commerce announced that
It would shortly install a radio
typewriter service in airplanes.
This service is characterized as a
marked advance in the field OF
aviation communication.
Roper said that the department
had studied the cost element in
volved in construction Of small
lighter than-air craft and had
reached the conclusion such step
would be practical.
The bureau for some time has
been operating a radio typewriter
system between Washington and
Baltimore and now will install a
system between Washington and
Nashville, Tenn. Cost of inStalla-
ton is estimated at 100000.
The typewriter system operates
entirely without the use of land
wires and the typewriter itself can
be operated easily while the plane
Is in flight.

The article, which is entitled Drums

when she was II years old.
The story tells of little Boyd Martin,
her brother wanting a drum, the desire

by the fact that at the time, War was
on, and it was no unusual thing to hear
the various evidences of war, including
the tat, tat, tat of beating drums. So

Long Island Railroad De
fies Commissions Order
to Lower Rates

The Long Island Railroad for Is years
defied the New York State statutes thru
court procedure and the State Public
Service Commissions efforts to make it
charge the local rate of 80 cents per
mile. 1t charged the higher, Federal In
terstate Commerce Commission rate OF
SO cents per mile, on the ground that
it was an interstate railroad not subject
to State control.
The Long Island Railroad refuses to
accept the Federal Interstate Commerce
Commissions order reducing railroad
rates from 8 6 to 20 cents per mile and
insists upon it's right to charge the State
rate of 3 % CENTS on the ground that 1t
is an interstate railroad, not subject to
Federal control.

T. w. Besley, State Fores-
ter, Tells of Extensive
Developments

Reports prevalent in this section for

ed by State Forester Beasley.
Maryland, it is said, will be pointed
out as a model for the nation, it was
stated
In speaking of the great work being
accomplished in Maryland, Mr.. Beasley
said:
In the extreme west of the State,
near Oakland, Garrett Co., is the Her
rington Manor recreation area, a part
of the Swallow Falls State Forest. Here
centered around 50-acre lake, now be-
ing developed, adjacent to a 35O-acre
virgin oak forest, and at an altitude of
$500 feet, is an ideal mountain recrea-
ton area.
Twenty-Five miles further to the east,
southeast of Grantsville, Garrett Coun-
ty, on the Savage River State Forest, is
the New Germany Recreation area. This
is conferred around small lake, fed by
mountain brook, Offering special adj
vantages to fishermen, campers and pick
nickers.
Sixty miles eastward as the crow flies
is the Fort Frederick State Park, in
Washington county, near Big Pool, &C.
quired by purchase in 1922. The central
attraction is the old fort, built in 1856
as a frontier defense for the Colony Of
Maryland. It's wall of stone, still stand
ing at the original height of IL feet in
places ana enclosing 1 IL acres of
ground presents an imposing spectacle.
The park contains 100 acres, bordering
on the Potomac River for three quarters

Washington Monument State Park are
the two parks of distinctive historical
Importance.

THRE million users for new shortening
i in three short months! It's amazing.
Unheard of. It's never been done before.
All, but here's the answer. There's neoer
been a shortening like Spry before!
From first to last Spry is better. Your
own eyes will tell you it is the moment you
open the can. S Spry purer, whittier, smooth
as satin. There not an atom of animal fat
in Spry. It's ALL-vegetable.
Imagine, you don't even need to keep
Spry in the ice-box. 1t stays fresh and
sweet right on the pantry shelf. Thus it
never gets chilled and stiff but is always
soft and easy to cream. Your cakes and
biscuits are mixed in half the time.

economic or just the bloody, ordinary
kind which makes the ammunition

ors and the cheap schemers rich and
prevail Street. We do not believe
that every wealthy man is a scoun-
drel, as does Father Coughlin. We
do not believe that every WPA lead
er is chiseler, as does John Hamil-
ton. eve use Hamilton, because he
is the real candidate-not ALI Lam
DOM. And, so, we also do not be-
lieve that every Democrat is worthy
of job, as does Jim Farley. We
see much to condemn in the New
Deal-but that does not include the
IVA, the AAA, and the CCC. The
NRA did more good than it is gen
orally given credit for. It succeeded
in checking some of the worst chisel-
ers. Some appealed to high legal au-
thority and some are bankrupt today
because they couldn't play ball. It
is not so much a question of the "gov-
eminent interfering with business"
1t is more question of the business
man being poor sport and being too
selfish to work with his competitor
in the regulation of fair prices for
the consumer.
WE HATE TO SEE the campaign
degenerating into cat-and-dog fight.
But it needs must be so, when the
large metropolitan dailies so mani
testify condemn Roosevelt without a
thought for the future except what
they term "the tax burden" They
forget that as conditions improve, so
improves the national income and so
the tax burden is lessened. Where
is that great tax increase we read
about? Who should pay but our
children. Certainly they will derive
the huge benefits our national prog
ress-why shouldn't they pay? Sure
ly our whole civilization is based on
just the same procedure. Even Hen
ry Mencken, the antagonist of the
Bible Belt, will agree with me when
l say that the children of mankind
build the churches and the grand
children foot the bill.

Nervousness is a condition which
is seldom due to a single cause
and one for which there is no
single specific. Less work or play
and more rest is usually hene-
fetal. However, there is often a
direct spinal irritation of one or
more nerves.
AS this is condition for which
medication offers no relief, it is
always advisable that there be a
comprehensive examination of the
spine. Often, though not always,
spinal adjustments reach directly
to the seat of the trouble. See
your chiropractor; perhaps your
nervousness is of that sort.

Welsh was eliminated in the first
round of the doubles but it took the
National champions, Wilmer Allison

Philadelphia, to do it. Welsh and
John Law, the later of Pasadena,
Calf, carried the Davis Cup veterans

the match. It was the first time
