SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTE
INTERESTED IN OLD BOAT

The schooner Australia, owned by
Captain Elmer Bachelor, of Chester
town, Nd, and lying at the old basket
factory wharf is again creating State
and National interest. To look at the
Australia one would merely see two
mast schooner similar to hundreds of
boats on this type now used on the
Chesapeake Bay but those who have
studied her history find something
about her that is rich in interests.
Three men from Fort McHenry,
working in the interest of the Smith
sonian Institute, spent four days last
week aboard the Australia sketching
measuring and investigating her con-
struction. It is understood that a mo-
del of her will be placed in the Smith
sonian Institute. They stated while
on their visit there they have found
that records show she was captured
in the war of 1912 and in 1868 was
sold at auction at Georgetown, D. C.
At the time of her capture she was
square rugged and of "a foot length.
After she was sold she was cut in two,
heightened and changed to the Ameri-
can Schooner rig and traded between
Chesapeake Bay points and also took
number of trips to North Carolina
waters. For number Of years she
was abandoned on mud flat and
Captain Bachelor purchased her and
made the necessary repairs.
Captain Bachelor stated that while
repairing the boat he found timbers
in her that could not be cut with an
axe.

JOHN CHARLES THOMAS
NEW MUSICAL SERIES

The atmosphere of the rural East
ern Shore of Maryland where John
Charles Thomas, noted American bari
tone, maintains a Summer home, at
Easton, provides the background for
the new musical series entitled John
Charles Thomas and His Neighbors,
to be heard each Wednesday at 900
p. M, E. D. S. T., over an NBC-WJZ
network.
Replacing our Home on the Range
program, which featured the operate
star as singing ranch owner, the
locale of the new program brings to
the microphone realistic setting. 1t
was quaint Eastern Maryland that
Thomas spent his boyhood days. In
real life resident of the section
Thomas sounds note of genuine feel
when he sings of the pleasant aspects
of his rural neighbors.
Ranked as the first operate star
to be featured as central figure of
musical-dramatic serial taking both
acting and singing part, the baritone
in John Charles Thomas and His
Neighbors, sponsored by the makers
of Vince, has an unusually fine sport

QUEEN ANNE WOMAN
WANTS TO BE CONSTABLE

Queen Anne's county will not get a
woman constable, at least not for a
couple of weeks if at all.
Final action on the application of
Mrs. Ida Skipper Parks of Upper
Queen Anne's county for appointment
as constable in the Second District
was postponed for two weeks at the
request of Mrs. Parks when the mat
ter came before the Board of County
Commissioners at their session Tues
day last.
Vigorous opposition to the appoint
ment of Mrs. Parks was voiced by
residents of the upper county. A dele
cation of five consisting of DR.. H. P.
Copeland, James Thompson, Walter
w. Needles, Edward D. Noll and H.
B. Pyle appeared before the commits
sioners to ask that the application be
rejected. A petition signed by nearly
fifty men and women of the upper
county was also submitted, fatty OBJ
jecting to the appointment.
Mrs. Parks is seeking the post of
constable on the grounds that noise
and disturbances is prevalent in the
vicinity of the Chestertown bridge es-
pecially at night and over the week
ends.
The protesting delegation insisted
that their community was law abiding
and peaceful, that there was no neeC
of constable, and that if one should
seem to be advisable they preferred
that he should be man.

puffed at cigarette while j. Cook
son Boyd, selected to deliver the nomi-
mating speech, on several occasions
departed from the next to enter into
arguments with the delegates.
Nice said nothing, nor did his close
advisers seated about him.
Boyd refused to quit. He continued
to the bitter end of a rather lengthy
speech and the end was greeted with
complete silence everywhere except in
the Maryland delegation.
A demonstration was attempted by
the Marylanders. A dozen of them,
with Nice banners and a Maryland
flag, set out on parade in silence
borne only by the notes of "Mary-
land, My Maryland" from the conven-
ton band. The parade moved once
across the hall, but the marchers were
back in their seats, dispirited, half a
minute after setting out.
Governor Nice said nothing. Owing
ton E. Weller, the national commit
teeman, looked Disguised. Other mem
bers of the delegation silently watch
er the Nice boom disappear. The sill
ence was the more marked when the
convention broke into an uproar a
moment later at mention of the name
of Senator Arthur H. Vanderberg, of
Michigan.
Gov. Nice will represent Maryland
at the notification of Gov. Landon at
Topeka, Kan. We hope he will fare
better than at the Convention.

EASTON STREETS GIVE EVIL
DENCE OF COLLAPSING

There is no question in the minds
Of many Eastonians that sooner OF
later the streets will give way. Their
fears were strengthened last week
end when a large hole was seen on
Washington Street in front of the
Farmers & Merchants Bank. An exam
nation showed that for several feet
under the pavement there was a va
cant space with nothing supporting
the concrete.
A large truck is said to have caus-
ed the cave in, and for time this
portion of the street had to be guard
ed by the police. Finally truck load
of fill repaired the street temporar-
lily.

BANKERS ENDORSE A
2 PERCENT INTEREST RATE

A unifrom reduction of interest
rates on saving accounts from 2 1-2
to per cent was discussed at Snow
Hill Thursday by Group Six of the
Maryland Bankers Association.
A majority of the banks represent
ed at the meeting favored the reduc-
ton to 2 per cent, but the majority
opinion was not binding on thos sup
porting the reduction or on those in
opposition. A committee was appoint
ed to try to get unanimous approval
Of the new interest rate.
William S. Gordy, Jr., state comp
troller and president Of the Salisbury
National Bank, advised the members
to reduce the interest rates. He said
that the increased costs of banking
and the reduced interest rates on
bonds made it necessary to cut inter-
est.
The Salisbury National Bank, the
County Trust Company, and the Farm
ers and Merchants, all of Salisbury
together with the Truckers and Saw
ings Bank Of Pittsville, and the Ma
tional Bank of Cambridge, have al
ready announced their intention OF
paying 2 per cent interest on time de-
posits. Several representatives from
all of the Salisbury banks attended the
meeting.

sime-annual business meeting in the
afternoon. Later, these and abou

CHINCOTEAGUE TRAWLER
BRINGS BOMB FROM BAY

Limping into Chincoteague last Sat
urday, the trawler "Voyager" out OF
Hampton, reported damage to the
craft and a member of the crew in
jured as the result of bringing up in
their net a good catch of fish and
a "catch" not so good-a metal con-
tainer which exploded, once it was on
board the "Voyager."
Captain Frank Topping and his
crew of six were fishing their net off
Green Run Coast Guard station Is
miles south of Ocean City, Md. AS
the net came alongside barnacle en-
crusted object bobbed up. 1t was
pulled aboard and found to be of metal
about twice the size of a basketball,
with a four foot projection attached
to it.
1t was laid beside the pilot house
until further inspection could be CIV
en- it. Shortly after, there was ter
rifle explosion, part of the pilot house
was torn away, section of a bulwark
ripped open and life boat demolished.
One of the crew was knocked down
and badly peppered on his back by
flying glass and splinters.
The "Voyager" is a seventy-two
foot deep-sea trawler and after MAX
ing temporary repairs at Chincotea-
que continued on her way to her home
port. Her captain could not identify
the container and said it was unlike
any explosive device he had seen.
