on the social security amendments
The House already has approved
them.
The Senate yesterday inserted, 43
to IS, an amendment by Senator
Connally, Democrat, OF Texas in
creasing by 10000, 900 Federal out
lays for old-age assistance benefits
1t provided for a Federal contribu-
ton OF 81 for every 81 by the States
up to a maximum mo:-.thly pension
OF SIS. Above that, the Federal Gov
eminent would match State pay
ments dollar for dollar up to $40.
The PRESENT law provides for even
dollar matching up to $50.
Senator Lee, Democrat, of Okla
homa lost, SIS to 16, an amendment

old-age pensions Of $40 for all needy
unemployed over 60.
Two Swap Charges.
Senator Lee and Senator VAN
denberg, Republican, of Michigan
accused each other of paying lp
service" to the old-age pension
movement.
Its snare and delusion," Sen
ator Vandenberg said, Ito bring in a
proposal to pay $40 monthly pension

Senator Lee said he would vote for

pines. He added he was loath to
break the onicial connection.
Senator Hatch, Democrat, Of New
Mexico, said today that Mr.. McNutt
should give up his new position If he
wants to campaign for the Demo-
cratic presidential nomination.
Senator Hatch, author of q bill to
ban political activity by Govern
ment employees, told reporters his
measure would not prevent Mr.. Nc
Mutt from campaigning because 1t
does not apply to the President,
cabinet members or policy-making
Government ofIicials.
But he exupressed the belief that
II Mr.. McNutt or any member of the
cabinet steps out for the presidential
nomination, "he should disassociate
himself from his ofiicial position"
During debate on the McNutt
nomination yesterday, Senator
Bridges, Republican, of New Hamp-
shire demanded that the Senate ap-
prove q resolution forbidding Mr..
McNutt from establishing "a per cent
clubs" among the thousands Of r. s.
A. workers. He said he did not want
Mr.. McNutt to "assess the salaries of
his employees for political purposes"
Bridges Resolution Tabled.
Asserting that Indiana State en-
ployes had been forced to contribute
per cent Of their earnings while
Mr.. McNutt was the States Cover
nor, Senator Bridges said this was
"one Of the most brazen political
rackets" ever practiced.
The Bridges resolutions was quick
ly tabled on motion of Majority
Leader Barkley, but the bluntly-
worded debate continued for an
hour. Senator Minton, Democrat,
OF Indiana, who is supporting Mr..
McNutt for the presidential nomi-
nation, told the Senate the latter
had not established Indiana's % per
cent clubs"
They were established by State
employees voluntarily" Senator Min
ton shouted, "and they have kept
the Republicans out In the wilder
ness. You have got to have the
wherewithal to run a political cam
paign, and this Is an honorable,
above-board, straightforward way
OF getting It,"

Senate May Yet Pass
On Neutrality, Byrnes Soys

SAN FRANCISCO, July 10 (P.-
Senator James F. Byrnes of South
Carolina believes the United States
Senate might yet get a chance to
pass on neutrality legislation advo-
Gated by President Roosevelt via the
House amendment route.
He said in an interview he be-
1eved that If q House amendment
were introduced, proposing simple
repeal Of the present embargo on
arms shipments to belligerent ma
tions, it would have a better chance
In the Senate than the bill killed in
the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee.
He said such a proposal merely
would restore original laws governing
shipment Of arms under interna-
tional law.

been modified and extended to care
for the growing interests and needs
of the pupils. Tests are offered each

Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
Again this week we pay our re-
spects and humble tribute to another
of Mountain Lake Parks good friends
and to a good friend of ours-Major
William N. Skyles, who passed away
in his sleep. It's fine way to go, and
we rather think he would have liked it
just that way. For the past twenty
years or more we knew and admired
Major Skyles. Perhaps the greatest
thing that could be said about anyone
was a remark we heard: "He was
never known to say an unkind word
about anyone" That is praise indeed.
At this moment his daughter, Mrs.
Eleanor Pollard, wife of Walter Pol
lard, is seriously i'll in a Hagerstown

Pollard the people of the Park extend
deep sympathy.

CAMP PERMITS REQUIRED
BY HEALTH DEPARTMENT
Summer Camps To Be Inspected
And Meet State Sanitary
Requirements

AS the ground hogs promise of an
early spring shows signs of fulfill
ment, thoughts turn expectantly to
camping, hiking, fishing and other
outdoor pleasures.
In preparation for the coming sea-
son, DR.. R. H. Riley, Director of the
Maryland State Department Of
Health, has notified owners and oper-
ators of Summer" camps-tourist,
recreational and labor-that all Mary
land camps must be inspected and
must meet the sanitary requirements
Of the Department before they may be
opened for visitors. Permits certify
ing that these orders have been met
are required of all camps. Last years
permits do not hold over. A 1889 per-
mits required whether the camp is
an old one or is just starting. No camp
may be operated without one.
In order that the necessary inspec-
lions may be made before the season
opens, camp owners and operators are
asked to file their applications as soon
as possible. Supervision of the camps
is under the joint direction of the
County Health Departments and the
Bureau of Sanitary Engineering of
the State Department of Health. All
camps that meet the State require
ments will be posted with placards sup
piled by the State Department of
Health. ....
The camp regulations apply, DR.. Ri
ley explained, to every camp or pic
mic ground that is used for six days OF
longer and that accommodates ten or
more persons. To be duly certified each
camp must comply with the require
ments regarding the general cleanli-
ness of the buildings and grounds;
concerning the water supply; toilet
facilities, and the disposal of sewage,
garbage and other wastes. Satisfac-
tory arrangements must also be made
for the protection of foods sold on the
premises from flies and from other
sources of pollution, and for the prop
er handling of milk, cream and ice
cream.
In applying for permits, camp op-
orators are requested to state the eX-
act location of the existing or the pro-
posed camp; to indicate the type
picnic, recreation, tourist, labor, etc.
They must also indicate the approx
mate number of persons to be accom-
modated, and the proposed duration OF
the camp season.
Last year POT camps met the re-
quirements and were duly placarded.
The licensed camps included 80 for
tourists; 10 for recreational purposes;
"a just as picnic grounds; 2 labor
camps and 2 used for religious gath
erings. Twenty-one counties were rep
resented in the total.
Anne Arundel, with 90, of which 20
were used for recreational purposes,
% picnic, 7 tourist and l religious, had
the highest number of any one county.
Hartford came next with total OF II.
Hartford, with ID camps for tourists
led in the number in that class in any
one county. Allegany and Worcester
had II camps each for travellers;
Frederick 9; Howard and Prince
Georges 8 each; and Anne Arundel
and Cecil 7 each. The rest of the tour
list camps were scattered among other
counties.

WORKERS
ASKED TO REGISTER

A call was sounded by the Hen
dersOn branch of the North Carolina
Employment Service To-Day for skill
ed airplane mechanics. The request
to such workers, now unemployed,
was the result of improving business
outlook and because of increased &C
tivity in the aviation field, it was
stated by J. S. Guide, manager of the
local office
The Employment Service is asking
for the names and addresses and the
record of experience of all skilled
mechanics and mechanics who are
not now working at their trade who
have had aircraft experience or who
would be interested in securing
training in aircraft mechanics.
The manager urged that all such
previous regiStrants renew their ap-
plications at once, and said such I'M
registered mechanics and machinists
should get in touch with their local
employment office. Mr.. Guide en-
phasized that this appeal was not to
be construed as the promise of job,
but said it may be important to the
applicant when openings are present
