HAS CROW TO PICK

A letter to the editor the other day
appears like the man who wrote it has
a crow to pick with someone
He says he got a cutoff slip from
the WPA and wouldn't kick if all were
served alike, but when he went to the
Welfare Office for re-assignment he
saw other men there who were at work
the next day on a road project, while
he is still not assigned.
He says he believes we have quite a
few Hitlers in Garrett county, judg-
ing from the way some of them act.
He says he knows Of man who had
job and who quit it and then he was
put on WPA. He says these young fel-
lows can get good jobs, but they quit
steady jobs and take WPA work in
stead and then the older ones don't
have chance on WPA, and the older
men can't get steady work anywhere
else. He says the young don't want
steady work and drink up their half
time wages.
Now, maybe that writer's got some
thing there.

CATTLE KILLED TO HALT
DISEASE ARE PAID FOR
Funds Are Available For Paying
Owners Who Slaughter Dis
eased Cows

Dr.. Mark Welsh, State veterinarian
and head of the Livestock Sanitary
Service, announced today that funds
are now available for indemnifyinq
owners of cattle slaughtered in tbs
eradication of Bangs disease.
He said that for some time past nc
herds have been accepted under State
and Federal supervision for the eradi-
cation of this disease and that many
herd owners are now awaiting them
selves of this assistance.
Animals found infected, according
to Dr.. Welsh, return to their owner;
about 81 Of their value. Each ANNA
found positive on blood test is APP
praised of her value and the owner
receives whatever she brings for meat
purposes. The difference between the
meat value and the appraised value is
divided into thirds, and the Govern
ment pays one-third up to twenty-five
dollars on grade and up to fifty dollar,
on pure bred animals. The State
matches the Federal payments and the
owner loses the remaining third, OF
about 200 of the appraised value.
DR.. Welsh said that over 1900 herd'
containing approximately $4,000 cat
tie are now accredited as being free
of this costly malady, and that the
spread of the disease to other animal;
and to man is being greatly reduced i
many sections. Eradication work i:
being carried on this summer in Gar
rett county.
Owners who want these tests may
apply to the State veterinarian or tn,
Federal inspector, Fidelity Building
Baltimore, to the county veterinarian
inspector or the county agents office
in Oakland. New herds will be &C
cepted only as long as indemnit!
funds are available and herds will be
tested in relation to the date the ap.
plication is received.

A DEPARTURE REGRETTED

The departure of Rev. Winfield s.
Patterson, DID,, to another charge
will be regretted by large number of
Oakland people which is not confined
to the Methodist church alone.
During his seven years in Oakland
DR.. Patterson has worked in harmony
with other denominations for the ad-
vancement of Christ's Kingdom, and
almost without exception has satisfied
his church members here with his
Christian service.
Another man comes to take his
place and the religious life of the town
will continue to flourish. Nevertheless
Oakland people as a whole are sorry
to see Rev. Patterson and his family
leave the community. "..

NEW YORK. Sept. s. (UP)-The

sed today when traders realized
vast profits in stocks and some
com mo dities and markets turned ir-
regular.
Stocks were inrrgeularly lower
with some off points or more,
Y. s. Government bonds lost as
much as a point in the most active
trading in the history of the x
change. Grains and sugar held full
limit gains but profit-taking sales
reduced prices in many other com
modities, recently very strong.
Market analysts said the reaction
in the share market was normal in
view of the fact the Industrial av
erage had risen 22ts points. or near
ly Is per cent, from the lows of last
Friday to yesterdays highs.
The stock repeat was orderly. AT
intervals staunch resistance to de-
cline was noted. Traders took cou-
rage in the fact that the declines
came when volume was relatively
small.
Coppers receded moderately from
the sensational gains made yester-
day. A sustaining factor was rise
Of cent pound in the metal. Non
ferrous metal prices generally were
