Of the German-Russian treaty Of
last August "a.

Of the German Russian treaty Of
last August "a.
The truly important point today
is not whether some form of Polish
government and some remnants Of
the Polish Army will survive, but
whether Joseph Stain must be con-
sidered as an occasional partner of
Adolf Hitler or as a close associate
and ally. The hest-informed opinion
here is that Stain could not, without
endangering Russia's national in
terests, help the Fuehrer to build a
formidable empire of his own, which
would bid fair shortly afterward to
turn against Russia's national in
terests and to imperil them.
Merely a Precaution.
Therefore, the construction most
readily placed upon Russias move
is that the Russian government
must have regarded from the first
as unavoidable the failure Of Po-
lands resistance to the German
aggressor, and that, since it was
fated to have a common frontier
with Germany, the best thing it
could do was to have it drawn as
far as possible in the west.
Acting on the theory, the French
and British governments can be
expected to take Molotof at his.
word, to behave as though they did
not have any doubts that the Mos
COW government intends to remain
neutral in the European conflict
and to refrain from doing anything
that might cement German-Rus-
sian solidarity.
1t has now become quite obvious
that Bolshevik Russia, notwith-
standing her revolutionary ideol-
ogies, has gathered the threads of
Czarist foreign policy, and their her
aim must be to reconquer the prov
inces lost in 1918. 1t is not even so
sure that Russia will not in the
future cast a glance at Istanbul.
There are already some vague indi-
cations of the revival of the imperial
traditions of the Romanoffs in that
direction.
War of AttritiOn Seen.
Following Polands downfall, a
war of attrition is sure to unfold on
the Western front. France and

A note giving the same reasons
and announcing troops would be
sent into Poland was handed Polish
Ambassador Waclaw Grzybowski

Copies of the note were sent to
"a countries, including the United

a fertile field for any accidental and
unexpected contingency which may
create menace to the Soviet Union.

authoritative sources here intimat-
ed they had information of an out
break of civil war in Warsaw. They
said one group was desirous of
capitulating and another was de-
termined to fight the invaders.
Pending settlement of this issue,
they said, there was little likelihood
of German forces doing anything
about the capital, from which Polish
government leaders have fed and
which is reported surrounded by
German troops.
Authoritative sources declared they
were unable to say anything about
German Russian conferences re-
ported as scheduled for Brestlitovsk.
Russian forces which crossed the
Polish border yesterday were re-
ported bearing down all along the
extensive frontier which divides
Poland from the Soviet.
1t seemed certain, however, that
the Russian and German armies
would meet somewhere in mid
Poland.
Meanwhile, German forces con-
tinued their drive to the southeast.
The high command announced that
opposition was crumbling and that
defeated and shattered remnants of
the Polish Army were in virtual dis
solution.
Nazi troops were reported advanc-
ing both north and south of LwoW
Gemberg), capital of the Polish
Ukraine. One force was said to be
approaching Drohobycz. 40 miles
southwest of the city. Other forces
were reported pressing on toward
Magierow, 30 miles northwest of
Lwow, and Krasnystaw, still further
to the north.
No New Warsaw Action.
No new action had been re-
ported around Warsaw since sub
mission of German ultimatum de-
manding surrender of the capital.
The Berlin radio, in dramatic mes
sages to the Warsaw commander
which all Europe could hear last
night, gave instructions as to the
manner in which Polish emissaries
were to leave the capital to meet
the German commander. The mes
sage was repeated numerous times,
both in Polish and in German, and
the Poles were asked to respond by
radio.
The high command reported the
defenders had agreed to dispatch
emissaries to the German lines, but
no response was heard here over the
ordinary wavelengths.
Government officials here said the
German Army was solicitous over
Warsaw's civilian population and
that the city would be bombarded
only as last resort to smash re-
naming military opposition.
Only hearty expressions of agree
ment with Russia were heard in
Berlin today. Russia, the Germans
argued, has vital interests in sup
pressed minorities in Poland to
whose aid, they said, she is obliged
to go.
1t was not expected here, how
ever, that any meeting of Nazi
and Russian military leaders, which
conceivably might take place to-
day, Immediately could settle the
fate of Poland.
1t was pointed out political ques-
tions outside the sphere of army
commanders are involved in the
crumbling of the republic. German
leaders regard the complete COL
lapse of Poland as an inevitable
development that may come within
a matter of hours.

State Spends $4,000 Daily For
Relief Purposes

Maryland spent more than $4,000
daily on its welfare program during
the 1889 fiscal year, having disbursed
the sum of $10,167,16
The cost of maintaing those on relief
ran about $596,OO0 above the 1885

NEW OPPORTUNITIES

The prospect for an additional out
let for milk here, which would provide
farmers with a regular income, ap-
pears to be one of the best opportuni-
les this section has had for a long
time.
This is based of course on the as
sumption that the milk supply in this
section will increase and that existing
dairy businesses will continue to get
their deserved share.
The belief that this proposition is
Garrett county's opportunity is baced
on several reasons.
The Carnation Company is asking
absolutely nothing from the town or
the farmers. If it establishes a milk
receiving station here it will buy its
own property, construct its own plant.
Many times there have been rumors
of industries being established here
but always there was an obligation to
be met Either the town had to furn-
ish a site, a plant, or purchase stock.
There are no such obligations with
the Carnation company.
The company requires no contract
with the farmers. 1t asks for a fair
trial, which makes it necessary that
the company satisfy the farmers if it
expects to get their milk. And it is
certain the company will try hard to
satisfy the farmers, else it wouldn't
spend $4,000 in construction of a
plant in this vicinity.
Furthermore, it is the aim of the
company to improve the herds in this
area so that the milk produced in this
county will be more than doubled. The
survey now being made will de-
termine whether or not the farmers
are anxious to have regular and
steady dairy business, with a check
coming to them every two weeks in
addition to whatever enterprises they
may already be engaged in. If
farmers brought $4,000 lbs, of milk
to the station daily, it would mean a
quarter of a million dollars increase
in the farm income. If it increased to
$4,000 lbs. daily, it would mean a
half a million additional farm income,
basing the figures on the $1.4O the
company now pays for 312 percent
milk. The opportunity is practically
unlimited, and the fact that the dairy
herds would increase would mean that
existing businesses would continue to
receive all the milk they wanted.
For Oakland business men it would
mean increased sales and a more
prosperous town. 1t would mean the
same thing for business men all over
the area.
Good business, good towns, a COM
Portable income for ambitious farm
ers-add those to the advantages we
already have in this section-and the

THE HAIR-CUT} YARDSTICK

To strip away the veneer and camou-
fage of governmental bookkeeping is
the first step in achieving genuine
economy.
The mayor of Fort Wayne, Indiana
makes various municipal costs so plain
that the average. citizen can compare
them with haircut, loaf of bread
or a pack of cigarets. In addressing
the annual conference of the National
Consumers Tax Commission in New
York, he said:
"In Fort Wayne we show that the
individual who has a home assessed
at $4,000 will pay AZ cents month for
police protection, or the price of a
meal; for fire protection AZ cents, less
than the price of haircut-in Fort
Wayne; garbage collections cents
less than Sunday paper; street clean
ing Is cents, less than a gallon Of gaz;
street repair, the price of a pound loaf
of bread; for parks and recreation 80
cents, the price of pound of steak;
health department 5 cents, the price
of a soft drink; payment on debt Is
cents, the price of pack Of cigarets;
other city activities, including pensions
and schools, 81 cents, less than a movie
ticket"
The total is $1.96 a month for all
the services in that city. How many
other municipalities can use such
yardsticks so favorably? 1t would be
interesting to know how Oakland
stacks up in its cost of operation, COM

CHILDREN ARE TOLD OF 3
IRIS" TO MOUTH HEALTH
Observance OF Rules Gives Them
Chance To Escape DiscOmforts

Children brought up according to
the three RS Of mouth health, have a
good chance to escape the sliscomforts
and accompanying ill-health that come
from dental disorders, according to
DR.. Richard C. Leonard, chief of the
Division of Oral Hygiene Of the Mary
land State Department. of Health.
"This season of the year, when the
children are getting adjusted to
school routine, is a particularly appro-
pirate time," DR.. Leonard said, "to
give special thought to the physical
as well as the mental aspects of a
child's development The child who is
physically fit makes much better prog
ress in school than does the boy or girl
who is below par. Parents can help to
keep their children fit by carefully
following the rules of mouth health in
bringing up the children.
"The three RS" he continued, "of
course, are not reading, 'riting and
'rithmetic,' but are right foods; real
cleansing and regular office visits,
which are as important to mouth
health as the old three RS to mental
development.
"The teeth and other mouth it's
sues depend for their original struc-
tural strength and their continued re-
sistnce to ill-health on the quality and
quantity of building materials made
available in the foods one eats. The
first set (baby) teeth obtain their ma
terials from the mother before a
child's birth. The permanent set may
depend on the diet of both the mother
and the child itself. Consequently, the
diets of both should be rich in cal
cium, phosphorus and in those vita
Minis that seem to affect mouth It's
sues. That is, there must be the right
food in the diet for strong decay-re-
sisting teeth.
"'ReaP cleansing means twice-a-
day, thorough brushing of the teeth,
with effort to reach every tooth sur
face, and, finally, the equally thorough
flushing of the mouth with some mild
antiseptic liquid. The germs that play
the part of tooth destroyers in the dis
ease known as dental decay are more
active in unclean mouths. Real cleans
ing will help to prevent their activity.
"But it is unwise to place complete
