SAFETY SEEN
BY ENGINEER
Hearing Closes First
Week; Trainnen Hit
Old System

Although rapping the slowness
of the one-man street car, Fred A.
Sager, chief engineer of the Pub
lie Utilities Commission, is Of the
opinion that this type of car is
safer than the two-man car and
ultimately will be used exclusively
on the Capital Transit Company

the hearing on one-man cars
closed. He will be brought back
to the witness stand Monday when

longer to load one-man cars and
they are slower in gettin G

the belief that the company in
the future would install all one
man cars on its lines and effect
a saving of $841,000 in wages.
He deplored the present condi-
ton of the company's rolling
stock and urged that at the
earliest possible moment the COM
pany should buy at least ESQ new
and up-to-date cars.

of Citizens Associations, William
NICK. Clayton, chairman of the
organizations public utilities
commission, not only recon-
mended to the commission that

made to replace the II one-man
cars now in use with cars OF
two-man operation.

local union of trainmen and bus
operators, headed by William F.

position to the one-man cars.
The other trainmen who teSti-
fled, were Floyd F. Edwards, L.
E. Weaver, Arthur Smell, A. A.
Lansihldo, Howard B. Norford
and James S. Ayers.
Several told the commission
they were at present employed

three years have brought about in an
orderly and efficient manner improve

Frederick. This beautifully wooded
mountain top, with its rocky points,
affords superb views of both the Middle
town and the Frederick valleys, equal to
any to be found anywhere in the Blue
Ridge Mountains. From this park road
is being built along the mountain north
ward which will connect with the Fred
erick City watershed area, and on thru
the Catoctin Recreation Area, both now
under development. This central part OF
the State, embraced in South Mountain
and Catoctin Mountain, and extending
from Harper's Ferry to Blue Ridge Sum-
nit. offers exceptional advantages with
it's beautiful natural scenery. This is
destined to become the greatest recrea-
ton center in the State, as well as an i'm
portant one for the whole country.
Next in this chain of parks, going
eastward, is the Patapsco State Park,
forty miles east of the Park at High
Knob in Frederick County, and ten miles
west of Baltimore. This is the oldest
of our parks, having been purchased be-
tween 1912 and 1916, and is the one
most largely used. It covers LOO acres
of land lying along both sides of the
Patapsco River for distance of about
six miles, in a section of rare natural
beauty. For many years, it has been
maintained as a natural park, and it
has attracted many thousands of visitors
each year from Baltimore and vicinity.
The improvements now in progress under
the CCC in the building of roads, trails
and providing better recreational facili-
ties for more intensive use will add
much to its value to the public.
II want here to pay tribute to the
CCC, which has made all this develop
ment work possible. However any one
may be disposed to criticize many of the
New Deal agencies and activities, here
at least is one that has received univer-
sal commentator.
1T has taken thousands of young men,
unable to find work. discouraged and
disheartened. from the streets and coun-
try side, given them useful employment
with chance to support themselves, and
send money back home to their depend
ents. 1t has not only built them up ply
sically. mentally, and spiritually, but in
the three years of its existence a ire
mendous amount of worthwhile work
has been accomplished Work that ought
to be done, yet without the CCC would
not have been done for many years. if
at all.
