SERVICE CHARGE
PROHIBITED BY
new ENACTION

The bill prohibiting banks from
making a service charge in cashing
checks was upheld as constitutional
and valid, in an opinion rendered this
week by Herbert R. O'Conor, Attorney
General of Maryland.s
Passed by the Regular Session of
the Legislature, the bill was referred
to the Attorney General by Governor
Harry w. Nice for a ruling to guide
him in approving or vetoeing the
measure. The bill applies only to AL
legany County and had been attack
ed by interested persons on the
grounds that it forced banks to cash
checks for no compensation, and that
it Disseminated against State banks
and in favor of national banks.
These objections were carefully con-
sidered in the opinion to the Cover
nor. But Mr.. O'Conor held: ut is
clear that it is within the police pow
er of the State to throw protection a
round wage payments" The opinion
concluded with this expression:
while the question of the validity
of the proposed bill is not free from
doubt, l feel that you would be justi-
fled in signing the bill, if you would
otherwise sign the bill except for the
objections to it's validity, and thus
permit the question of it's validity to
be presented to the court for deter
minatiOn."
In another opinion to Robert E. En-
mis-, Justice of the Peace for Prince
Georges County, Attorney General
O'Conor ruled that, in automobile vio-
lation cases, the schedule of fees
which justice may charge is govern
ed by the fee table in the Motor We
hicle Code, and is not governed by
varying local laws on the subject"
In this case a local law of the
county had provided different sched-
ule of fees from that specified in the
general law. Although the local law
was passed later and purports to re-
peal any laws inconsistent Herewith,
the Attorney General held that the
Motor Vehicle Code was intended to
be Statewide in its operation and
that the fees therein specified were
to apply in every county.
In an opinion to Stanley D. LETTERS,
Coroner for Cecil County, Mr.. O'Conor
ruled that vacancy now exists in
this office which the Governor must
fill by appointment, but that he can
not appoint Mr.. LETTERS.
This situation came about because
Mr.. LETTERS had held the position of
coroner. for two years and was re-
nominated by the Governor this win
ter. However, the Senate rejected the
nomination. Under the State Consti-
tuition Mr.. O'Conor held a person once
rejected by the Senate cannot there
after be appointed to the same office.
Therefore Mr.. O'Conor ruled that Mr..
LETTERS term of office definitely ended
on May 3rd. "Since a vacancy now
exists" Mr.. O'Conor said, at becomes
the duty of the Governor to fill such
vacancy by recess appointment so
that the people of Cecil County may
not be deprived of the services of a
coroner.
"As above mentioned, you are not
eligible for the appointment because
of your rejection by the Senate"

Mark that point--the animal from which your choice cuts are cut was sold by total weight, not by the weight of sirloin steaks and loin chops. Someone has to feed and pay for the rest of the meat which the spoiled American taste turns up It's nose ct. Do you know who feeds and pays for the meat you do not eatp You do.
 A lamb usually weighs from 70 to 45 pounds. The rack from which rib chops are cut weighs from 5 to 6 pounds, the loin which provides choice loin chops weighs

 Every woman who cares about her appearance and spends time trying to stay young.looking and attractive ought to have e good sound reason for every beauty rou- tine she does. It's Q waste of energy not to mention money, to do e,ab- crate routines which never were intended for your particular type of face or complexion.
 If you know perfectly well that you are one of those fortunate persons who never will have to worry about 0 sagging chin line or fullness below jawbone, why waste your time batting under meath your chin or hothering with e batter? You'll be wiser to con- centrate on the skin around your eyes or the faint lines from nose to corners of the mouth. These are what thin-faced people with pointed chins generally are con. fronted with. If you can't decide just what routines to do, better consult q facial expert.
 Have a reason for picking the particular shade of rouge you like to wear. Or the face powder or nall polish. And remember that "because Mrs. So and So wears 1t" Is no reason ct all.
 Don't adapt current fashions in beauty or clothes unless they are really suitable. Probably one of the reasons the Duohes of Windsor Is one of the best dressed women in the world Is that she always buys c costume because 1t Is flattering to HER -- not because she has read that 1t is the latest craze. Her re- cent choice of evening dresses with high necklines (to hide the thin- ness of her chest and shoulders) in Q season when very decollette ef- fects are widely publiciSed, proves this.
 It often Is q good idea to pat- tern your hairdreSs after the coiffure of e famous woman of your type. But be sure that she Is your type. Also that the hairdress is suited to your mode of living. You may resemble faintly some well known actress, but don't copy the elaborate coiffure she wears in Q costume picture and wear 1t to your office. If you must mimic her, ct least find out how she wears her hair when she Isn't working in c costume picture.

no more than 2 or 8 pounds and the legs for Sundays roasts come to no more than 2 or pounds, The butcher, remember, had to buy the entire lamb, weighing 46 pounds. But you will use only about 24 pounds of the 70 or 46 pounds which he paid cash for, win he take the lossp Would youp
 Tn the wasted 16 or more pounds of meat on that lamb car- cass are chuck or shoulder and breast, as well as heart, tongue, liver, brains and kidneys. If you want to maintain Q good table and still not annihilate the family food budget, you must learn to use up all the carcass.
 Veal is Q meat too little appre- ciated. Leg, loin and rack chops everyone likes; but shoulder, breasts, brains and kidney, If used regularly, too, afford not only de- licious variations in the diet but bring down the costs of the more familiar cuts.

Chuck rib, too, can be roasted. Short ribs, flank steak and chuck steak ell belong in the list of usually unwanted cuts, but cuts paid for in tho price of the more favored sections.

 The welfare of the average Amer- lean family is threatened. Sudden. ly, at the approach of winter we find ourselves facing almost prohibitive costs for the meats regarded as Q necessary part of our daily food al- lowance. If we can't lower meat prices to former levels, what shall we do about itP
 Rising food costs without Q cor- responding rise in income have produced an increase in the cost of living - about l5 per cent. Should women rise up and attack the politicians? Should they hoy- colt butcher shops and hold out until prices drop again to where they were?
 Boycott Has Disadvantages
 A boycott IS e two-edged wea- pon and the inexperienced might easily cut themselves. Whenever women have refused to buy gro- ceries or meats in protests against high prices, prices have eventual ly dropped for Q time. But 1t Is not as simple as 1t looks. The local butcher may have to cut nis prices to dispose of stocks on hand, but the large packers may Just sit tight and lock their re- frigerator doors. It's the little fellow who takes the rap, not the big one. And If the housewives boycott lasts very long, the fam fly suffers from lack of essential and expected items in the diet. The question now Is, can we maintain our American standard of living in the face of the high cost of livingP TooN Nmuch of our
