BROWNIES BROWNIES!
The organization Of the first
Brownie Pack in Gre enbelt wi IL be
of much. interest to all girls
from 7 to 10. year of age. The
Brownie program is very inter est
ing and covers training that
girl is hardly able to get in: any
other way. A Brownie is helpful,
always ready to. lend hand, and
gives in to the older folks; docs
not give in to herself. Imagina-
ton is the keynote Of Br oWnies.
In tho pack tho girl finds magic
and make. believe. There is the
cher ished totem tOadstool, the
fairy ring and also the evil Bog
art, who is ~within the Brownie.
Mrs. Lillian A. Mitchell Of 3B
Eastway has been COMM S ST oned

ity. Tt is hoped that every girl
in Grecnbelt between 7 and 10
years al, age will meet. at Mrs.

"For many years the Maryland
tuberculosis Association has carried
on a health education program to
make the citizens of the state con-
scious of these things and to teach
them to make use of them. This work
has been made possible through the
annual sales of the Christmas Seals"
No record of the Christmas Seal
sale in the counties is available as yet
as the various county chairmen have
not yet had the opportunity to make
their reports. This information is ex
pected during this week. All indica-
tions that have been observed are
encouraging ones and it is hoped that
the same volume of mail will continue.
People are urged by the associa-
ton to use as well as buy these Christ
mas Seals. The seals have an educa-
tional value that awakens interest in
many individuals. They are also use
full in sealing letters and packages,
as well as being decorative.

MUST Be FOUGHT
BY KNOWLEDGE

Fighting tuberculosis with know
ledge is one of the most effective ways
of reducing the high tuberculosis NOR
tally and morbidity rates, is the be-
lief of William B. Matthews, Manag-
ing Director of the Maryland Tuber-
culosis Association, the organization
which, in cooperation with the county
tuberculosis associations, is conduct
ing the annual Christmas Seal Sale
to raise funds for. continuing the war
on this disease.
Mr.. Matthews said:
"There are many weapons with
which to fight tuberculosis and know
ledge is one Of the most important.
When the great lay public has become
tuberculosis conscious and has &C.
quired the necessary information a.
bout the disease, great advances will
be made against it..
Everyone must be made to know
that tuberculosis is a durable and pre-
ventable disease, and the earlier it Is
discovered the easier and more certain
is the cure. They must also learn
the steps necessary for prevention and
how to check it's spread.
Periodical physical examinations
the tuberculin test and the X-ray can
do much to prevent tuberculosis as
we'll as make possible early discovery
if used. The tuberculin test is a
harmless skin test which shows wheth-
er or not tuberculosis germs have en-
tered the body. If this test shows
that they have, an X-ray picture will
determine the extent of the damage.
People must learn to use these things,
especially those who have been in con-
tact with the disease.

A powerful force for recovery, in
volving the unemployment of tens of
thousands of persons and the expen-
diture of hundreds of millions of dol
lars, will be set in motion if the
railroads are allowed to earn adequate
revenues, the Interstate Commerce
Commission was told in Washington
this week at the start of the most
important railroad case in history.
Normally, the railroads are a bill
lion-dollar-a-year customer of all in
dustry," said J. J. Policy, President
of the Association of American Rail-
roads. the first witness for the car
riers. "The dollars which railroads
spend for the thousands of things they
buy, like the dollars which they spend
in payrolls, spread over the entire
United States and go into almost ev-
cry industry. With adequate reve-
nues, we may reasonably expect re-
vival of railroad buying, and I know
of no greater single stimulus to in
uuSCry ana employment.
Service to shippers cannot be main
tanned at present standards, employ
ment cannot be enlarged and pur-
chases of materials and supplies can
not be resumed in normal volume
without increased railroad revenue to
meet higher prices for the 10000 diff
ferent items railroads buy, higher
taxes, and wage increases, witnesses
for the railroads testified. In fact,
they added, without an increase in
revenues, other roads will be forced
to the wall, joining the 96 railroads
now in the hands of receivers or trus-
tees.
At present, railroad purchases and
employment are necessarily held to al
bare minimum, said witnesses, but
there is damned up flood of orders
waiting to be released by adequate
revenues, to stimulate employment
and business in all parts of the coun-
try. Ralph Budd, President of the
Burlington Railroad, for example, tes-
titled that $9OO,OO0,OOO a year, for
the next several years, might well be
spent for new lightweight equipment
and improvements in roadway, shops
and signals.
= Points stressed by various witness
es were that railroads cannot, without
governmental authority, adjust rates
to their expenses as do other bust
nesses; that the railroads are pinched
between rising prices, taxes and wage
levels, and continued declines in aver
age freight and passenger revenue;
that the average revenue for hauling
a ton of freight one mile is now less
than one cent; and that the increased
rates are needed to meet increases in
costs.
Chief executives of Western Mary
land railroads who testified this week
were: Ralph Budd, Burlington; F. w.
Sargent, Chicago & North Western !;
Hale Holden, Southern Pacific; H. A..
Scandrett, Milwaukee; Wilson Nc
earthly, D & ROW; Charles Donnelly,
Northern Pacific. S. T. Bledsoe, Santa
Fe. In addition, the following traffic
Officers testified: F. w. Robinson,
Union Pacific; ]. r. Koontz, Frisco;
George T. Atkins, MKT.

roads who testified were: F. E. VIII
