Paragraph Opinions
NO MORE FIRECRACKERs-

The City Council on Monday night,
in unanimously passing the ordinance
prohibiting the sale or firing of fire
crackers in the town, has done wise
thing, for which many families now
and in the future will be grateful
AS long as they were sold regularly
any regulations as to firing them
could not be enforced, but now that
both the sale and setting off are pro-
hibited residents of the town, may look
forward to more safe and sane Fourths
of July.
The use of powder and other mater
ials of war is not symbol of this
country's ideals, even though neces-
sary at one time to gain our freedom.
independence Day, therefore, can be
fittingly observed in other ways. Fire
works are not necessary, and the less
they are used throughout the country
the fewer will be the deaths of children
from tetanus, the more fingers and
thumbs they will have to work with,
the more eyes they will have to see
with.

SUGAR SOURS ON NEW
DEAL

Louisiana cane sugar growers have
turned sour on the New Deal.
No wonder. Like millions of farm
ers, industrialists, businessmen and
wage earners, they are waking up to
the fact that New Deal '"help" is, in
reality, New Deal destruction.
Here's what happened: ..
In accordance with New Deal quo
tas, they planted their cane last Sep
TENDER. Now, under revised require
ments by the Department of Agricul-
ture, they have had to pillow under
$500 acres.
They had spent 81 100000 on those
$500 acres. They had counted upor
return of $3,500,000. They will not
even receive benefit payments on the
destroyed cane.
The result of this destruction is tc
throw 10000 workers out of jobs. Ant
raw sugar prices, which the New Deal
said it was going to boost by this CROP
control, have fallen to almost unprece
denied levels.
Says the American Sugar Dane
League, which has a membership. OF
H. 500:
"The $500 acres plowed under haC
sugar equivalent sufficient to supply
greater New York with it's total suga'
requirements for four months. These
38,500 acres have been destroyed il
order that sugar from foreign coun
try (Cuba) which pays nothing to-
wards maintaining our government
and whose labor lives under condition;
that we as healthful, outstanding Am
orleans would not tolerate for an in
slant, may ship it's sugar to our mar
ket at price considerably higher thar
any other country in the'world is will
ing to pay feE-it-""-.

PRE-SCHOOL YOUNGSTERS
ARE OBJECT OF ROUNDUP
Summer Examination Enables
Parents To Check On Chill
dren'S Health

Youngsters who will tackle the three
Rs for the first time this fall, are cen
tiers of attraction at the Summer
Roundup Conferences being held
throughout the State for the health
examination of children to be sure they
are in good condition for the great adj
venture.
The examinations in the counties
are under the general direction of the
Bureau of Child Hygiene of the State
Department of Health. The arrange
ments in each county are made by the
County Health Office with the County
Department of Education and the local
Congress of Parents and Teachers CO.
operating. The examinations are paw
ticularly for children not under regu-
lar medical supervision. fe-
In calling attention to the Summer
Round-Ups," DR.. R. H. Riley, Direc-
tor of the State Department Of Health,
explained that the ''before school, eX-
aminations correspond closely to the
physical examinations that are part of
the regular school program for the
older children.
"All records Show" DR.. Riley con-
tinued, chat children who start the
school year in good health, and who
have been safeguarded in every way
possible against preventable sickness,
stand the strain of school life and
make better progress than children
do who are handicapped by conditions
responsible for i'll health-such as de-
cayed teeth, bad tonsils, underweight,
dull hearing and defects of vision. The
summer examinations enable the par
ents to find out whether their children
are up to par in these respects. If they
are not, great deal can be done to-
ward correcting them before the chill
dren start to school.
"a record is kept for each child
showing whether or not the child has
been protected against diphtheria and
smallpox. Special clinics for the bene
fit of children for whom these services
have been neglected, have followed tn :
/ examinations in number of counties.
Parents who cannot take their chill
dren to the clinics are urged to take
them to their own doctor or to the
nearest health officer and have them
protected against both diseases. As
most parents know, our Maryland law
requires a child to be vaccinated
against smallpox before he or she NAV
be enrolled at any public school in the
State 1t is wiser to have it done now
than to wait until school opens.
"These before-school examinations
are like the inspections we have made
of our automobiles before we start o.?
an important journey. The greater the
care taken in checking up and cor
recting any weak points we find in the
machine, the better the results. The
same is true of the little human ma.
chine. If your child starts to school

ute to have the youngster inspected y

DEFENSE OF LAND" Is The
CHIEF PROBLEM OF TODAY
Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One)
Mrs. Kermit Glotfelty, president Of
the County Council of Homemakers'
Clubs, spoke on having an ideal to-
wards which to work, and D. L. Reed,
president of the County Land Use
Planning Commission, brought greet
ings. Group singing was in charge Of
Miss Sara B. Huff, Of Mountain Lake
Park. A sudden shower delayed the
program in the middle of Dr. Benefits
talk.
Dr.. Bennett explained in detail the
purpose of the soil conservation ser
vice and why the State and Federal
agencies were so concerned with land
use. Unwise use of land has ruined
outright or severely damaged mora
than 280 million acres of farm and
| grazing land in the United States, and
from an additional 775 million acres
one-fourth to three-fourths of the
original topsoil has been removed, he
pointed out, which affects more than
half of all the land in the United
States. "The United States is declin-
ing nation as to its soil, and GU"
greatest problem is to improve soil
and soil conditions"
He related about the area which was
dedicated as being marked by ragged,
steep mountainous topography, with
thin gravelly or stony soils, otter bad
! ly eroded. Part of his address follows:
Settlement of the area began be-
fore 1900, the. first settlers being a
few adventurous people who pushed
/ 25 miles beyond the protection afford
ed by Fort Cumberland. After the Rev
dictionary War about 5000 so-called
/ Military Lots of so acres each were
mapped out in what is now Garrett
county. The land supported stands OF
pine. hemlock and hardwood timber.
1t was natural that logging should
follow. By 1910 most of the good TIM
Der was cut off. Many men formerly
employed in mills and in the woods de-
cided to try farming The result was
improper land use which resulted in
! erosion.
"The County Relief Board reported
that % families were on relief within
the purchase area. An average gross
income of $198 a year, with average
cash expense of $103, leaving a net in
come of $95. There were five one-room
schools in the area. Homes were most
iy log cabins with furniture consisting
of bare essentials only.
"That was the area which the Gov
eminent purchased - 35,625 acres.
When the project started in 1885 there
were SIS families living in the area.
All of these families have now moved
and 46 have moved outside the general
problem area"
DR.. Bennett also pointed out the
things that could be seen in the rec
reational development and told Of the
conservation work that was not so
evident 400 rods Of fences and pest
control on 1000 acres, 81 miles of fire
breaks, reduction of fire hazards, a
forest nursery of 5000 acres, 1000
acres of trees planted, 81 miles of fire
control, wildfre conservation work
completed on 1000 acres, improvement
of streams for fish, planting of food
and cover for wildlife.

ject manager for the soil conservation
