BYRNS LAUDS WORK
OF MARYLAND UNIT

Washington, April 2S.-Speaker
Byrns today praised the work of the
six Maryland Representatives in
Congress and expressed the hope all
would be reelected in November
The Speaker pointed out that the
delegation has been in the House for
several years, and all it's members
have important committee assign
ments.
81 was member of the House for
twenty-five years before l became
chairman of a major committee" the
Speaker recalled. Every Speaker of
the House served twenty years or
more before he reached that high
position"
He pointed out that Representative
Goldsborough, of Maryland, who has
served approximately fifteen years,
ranks second on the important Bank
ing and Currency Committee and
has been acting chairman most of
this session Representative PALMS.
ano, chairman of the Committee on
Education, also is second-ranking
member of the Committee of the Dis
trict of Columbia, he noted. Repre-
sentative Gambrill is the third-rank-
ing member of the Naval Affairs
Committee, Mr.. Byrns recalled, and
Representative Kennedy, the junior
member of the delegation, is chair
man of the Committee on Claims.
He also pointed out that Repre-
sentative Cole has been conspicu-
Gus member of the Interstate and
Foreign Commerce Committee and
headed several subcommittee during
this session and the last
Speaker Byrns praised the service
of Representative Lewis, citing espe-
cially his membership on the Ways
and Means Committee, one of the
most important of the House.
Everybody knows the length of
service of members of the House in
creases their usefulness to their dis
tricts," Speaker Byrns said.
New members who are sent to
Congress begin at the bottom of the
list, and it requires considerable
time to acquire complete under
standing of enacting legislation and
making contacts with the various
Government departments.
He also pointed out that should
the political complexion of the House
change, members retain their minor
ity rank on committees.

DANGER ON HIGHWAYS GREAT
Err IN SUMMER

Farmers and other car owners are
being warned by M. j. Morrison, ac-
cident investigator for the Maryland
Farm Bureau organization, that the
next five months are the most dan
gerous on the highways. A larger
number of accidents occur in sum-
mer than at other time of the year,
Mr.. Morrison says.
Every season has some sort of
hazard for the motorist," Mr.. Nor
rison states Those who drive
much in winter know the dangers of
ice and snow. These hazards, how
ever, are not so great as those which
come from the heavier traffic and
peed of summer travel. The fact
that Monday morning newspapers,
following the heavy weekend travel
by motor, never fail to report several
erious accidents is proof of the
added hazards of crowded reads
The past two or three years has
registered a material increase in the
number CT accidents in territory out
side CT cities and on highways which
are straight, Mr.. Morrison states. A
smaller percentage of accidents is
occurring at intersections, he be-
lieves, and gives increased speed of
cars as the reason for the change.
mot only should every motorist
help to avoid fatal automobile acct
dents which last year took toll of
around $4,000 lives, but he should
recall the economic loss entailed by
the daily crashes on our highways
1t is impossible to get accurate
figures on the loss and repair bills
resulting from accident, but at least
enc authority places the figure at an
additional one cent mile for every
mile travelled by every automobile.

RING OUT, OLD BELL!

Since the Democrats selected
Philadelphia as their convention city
this year it quite naturally followed
that they should select the Liberty
Bell as the symbol and insignia OF
the party's four year roundup in the
City of Brotherly Love. Strangely
enough the insignia of the Big Bust
ness controlled and financed Ameri-
can Liberty League is the same Lib
erty Bell and former President
Hoover and other prominent Repub-
licans have been harping the loudest
about safeguarding our liberties. In
fact, it might seem to some that the
famous old bell was selected by the
Democrats as clever way to
counterfeit the oft heard Republican
cry to protect our "libetry," although
that likely had least to do with its
selection. Because of these develop
ments the eyes of the nation are once
more turned upon one of the most
cherished symbols of the nations in
dependence and the peoples liberty.
Although it was foreign made, the
Liberty Bell is our beloved symbol of
national freedom. 1t is symbolical
of the peoples right to worship AL
mighty God agreeably to their con-
sciences, which is among the choicest
of their blessings, and is emblematic
of their rights as guaranteed under
the Constitution. The old bell tolled
it's last while being rung during the
funeral of Chief Justice John Marsh
all in 1885 when it cracked open.
Since then it has remained enshrined
as an object of love of the American
people. But its spirit has continued
to sound" the "Tocsin of Freedom. I"
And long may this imaginary ring
ing" continue to Proclaim Liberty
throughout all the land unto all the
Inhabitants Thereof. THE Path
finder.

FLOWING BACK FORESTALLS
SOIL DEPLETION

The prudent farmer knows that he
must conserve the condition of his
soil, if he is to prosper. He cannot
expect to take continually from his
fields without giving back to them
That is why you see him blowing
back the sweet clover, the soy beans
and the rank rye.
He realizes the necessity of re-
turning to the earth a portion of the
profits that he secures from it in the
form of those chemical elements that
are necessary to avoid depletion and
to insure continual abundance of
production.
The improvident farmer, on the
contrary, gives no thought to the
future, reaps the entire yield and
plows back nothing. His thought
less policy and practice are re-
sponsible for our Abandoned farms
and for the millions that Uncle Sam
must now spend to counterfeit the
effects of soil depletion.
There is food for thought in this
for our legislators who are now con-
sidering the corporation surplus tax
proposal. Industrial fields, like
farm acres, must be kept fertile or
they will become sterile and impov-
erished. They need a blowing back
of a portion of the dollar crops that
come from them. Research, mod
ernization, replacement, develop
ment must continue, if our industrial
soil is to be kept from becoming
barren and depleted.
Our industrial fertilizers are not
sweet clover and rye, but dollar
profits. These have been plowed
back by provident manufacturers in
the past to conserve industrial fer
tility. Abandoned plants, like aband-
oned farms, are the result of an i'm
provident policy which neglects to
do this.
If unwise legislation should de-
prive us of the possibility of thus
blowing profits back into our indus
trial fields, the time may come when
the soil of production and employ
ment will be depleted. If this should
happen, Uncle Same will have to
spend billions to restore our produc-
ing power, just as he is spending
hundreds of millions to restore our
barren acres.

HEALTH EDUCATION

The end of April marked the close
of the annual Early Diagnosis Cam
paign of the National tuberculosis
Association and it's affiliated associa-
tons. The purpose of this program
was to educate the public in certain
facts about tuberculosis and that
early diagnosis is very important.
The Maryland tuberculosis Asso-
citation has been actively engaged in
carrying out this program. Includ-
ed in the program was the first week
in April which was devoted to Ma
tional Negro Health Week.
During the month "a meetings
were held with school and other
groups at which either a talk or mo-
ton picture or both were given. Four
health exhibits were placed in
schools, one being at the head
quarters for the National Negro
Health Week meetings. Approx
mately 5000 pieces of health litera-
ture and posters were distributed
throughout the state.
1t is the plan of the local associa-
ton to maintain this program of
health education throughout the
whole year. Education and coopera-
ton with the physicians are the best
methods of combating tuberculosis
and the association plans to encour-
age this as much as possible,

AS the poets'd say: "Strike with
hand of fire o. weird musician, thy
harp string with Apollo's golden
hair; fill the vast cathedral aisles
with symphonies sweet and dim, deft
touches of the organ keys; blow,
bugler, blow! blow until the silver
notes do touch and kiss the moonlit
waves, and charm the lovers wander
ing midst the vineclad hills!"
But, your sweetest strains are all
sour notes compared with a little
banty hens song as she busys round
the kitchen door"
T'other Sunday morning the little
boy was helpin' his father trans
plant some pansies (pansies always
tickled him-said they looked like
monkey faces), and turnin' to his
father, he says: 81 bet these little
old fellers know it's Sunday, don't
they pappy?"
Who knows? The flowers grow
and bloom and raise their babies
their way. Maybe they amt got the
seventh day of the week all marked
off on the calendar and set down as
Sunday, like us. But who's in tune
with their universe? An couldn't
they have flower thoughts and posie
souls, observin' and keepin' jest as
faithfully and religiously their creeds
as us?
Anyhow, it's good to think of their
havin' little flower souls, and what
purity place Flower Heaven'd be.
The butterflies and bees would be
there, maybe the birds too, and if
St. Peter wouldn't mind, I'd like to
have little corner in Flower
Heaven. Please, st. Peter.

TRUST INCOME
EASING SEEN
TEMPORARY

Members Of trust companies
and national bank trust depart
ments which are reported to have
been questioned for some time by
beneficiaries as to the reason for
present lowering of income from
their trusts, say that the condi-
ton is likely to be temporary.
There recently has been a de-
cided dearth of securities suitable
for the investment of trust funds
and a great deal of trust money
has, therefore, been invested in
short-term Government securities,
it is reported.
Yield Smaller
The yield from these Govern
ment bonds is, of course, much
lower than would be the income
from a like amount invested in
Suitable" securities if they were
available.
Until securities yielding a
higher rate are again available
in sufficient and safe" quantity,
trust departments are availing
themselves of the safety and
certainty of Government obliga-
tions. 1t would seem, according
to this policy, say trust officers,
that any curtailment of income
is only temporary and the re-
suit of efforts to safeguard the
trusts.
RoudebuSh Report
A recent report to the Ameri-
can Bankers Association by A.
Holt Roudebush, vice president
of Mississippi Trust Company,
of St. Louis, was pointed to
yesterday by the member Of a
local trust department as cover
ing the present situation. Roude-
bush said:
corporate trustees every
where are receiving inSiStent
demands for more income from
beneficiaries heretofore long &C
custOmed to high returns from
mortgage loans and other in
vestments. These demands are
sometimes accompanied by sug
gestiOns of unsatisfactory types
of mortgage loans and other
investments of speculative
character. The duty of the
trustee to investigate before in
VeSting is abViOuS. The safety
of the principal is the supreme
law of trusteeship."
