how to make themselves better farm
men and women, the commissioner
said as he paid a tribute to the State
Highway Commission for it's action in
initiating the projects which will re-
suit in paving of all roads to test
arms.
Scott was himself largely instru-
mental in bringing about the decision.
1.-The tremendous investments the
State has in these farms, together
with the worthwhile service rendered
by research workers at the farms, OBJ
viously make the expenditures for the
road work expedient and economical
ly sound, and makes better service to
a greater number possible" he said.
Test farms are located at Willard,
Wenona, near Rocky Mount, at Sam
nanoa, at Statesville and at Oxford.

farms are now being paved or their

All this relates to the House of Re-

The lower congressional chamber
can be diluted by 20 or 80 or 20 new
1 kinds of members-beneficia per.
haps, by Republicans
But a Republican candidate can't be
elected to Senate seat against a
Democrat without widespread ''reper-
cussions."' !, The Republicans contend
that they are due to effect some Of
these readjustments. They can't settle
anything this year-but maybe, as to
1910.
t. Republicans not only have been
in minority for the last half dozen
years. They have been in too hopeless
q minority.
The Democrats wouldn't mind see
ing them pick up senatorial seat or
two.
In short, the Democrats would like
to see few more Republicans.
The Democrats would like to have
a trifle more opposition They don't
admit it, of course.
But there's a necessity for some OPP

NO COAST TEAM STAYS UNBEATEN

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Dec. 10.-- The Pacific coast, producer of two unbeaten and poSt-season, bowl winning teams last year, can't boast a single club with a perfect record this season.
 California, last years Rose Bowl victor, was beaten by Southern California. Santa Clara, which tri- umphed in the Sugar Bowl, was toppled by St. Mary's.
 The Santa Clara players are plan- ming to spend Christmas holidays at their homes for the first time in three years. The past two New Years days have found them win ming Sugar Bowl decisions at New Orleans.
 The Broncos tackled up one of the finest of recent football records in winning 16 straight games before St. Mary's edged them out TO in mid November.
 Their last previous defeat was at. the hands of Sammy Baugh and his Texas Christians in 1886
 Santa Clara had been the fla vorite against St. Mary's but there was no doubt that the better team won. Experts figured that St. Marys brought Santa Clara's downfall be- cause Coach Slip Madigan contrived a pass defense that stopped Santa Clara cold. The Broncos tried 19 passes, completed five for unimpor- tant gains and had four intercept n1

Welfare Board Group
Asks Supervisor Of
Aids Duties Change

The Central Advisory Committee OF

Board of representative
citizens from Silver Spring, Bethesda,

Germantown and Poolesville, passed
the following resolution at their meet
ing, Friday, January 18th: "That the
County Commissioners transfer the
duties, of the Office of the Supervisor
of County Aid to the Welfare Board"
The action of the committee was
taken because Of the greater efficiency
in having more unified public well
fare, program and the saving to local
funds, in administration. Under the
Welfare Board, the County contribu-
ton to operating and service costs is
only 1-5 of the total cost of such serv-
ices.

out the fact that Mr.. Casey's can

The paramount issue, which is evil

Dawson also stated his belief that
there was no foundation to rumors
that Democratic organization leaders

However, Mr.. Classic, in seconding
