Attorney Generals
Ruling On County
Liabilities

The Ohio attorney general rul-
ed this week that a county is Ii
able to the state for expense of
care and treatment of dependen-
dent and crippled children COM
mitted by the juvenile judge to
the department of public well
fare institutions. Neither is the
juvenile judge limited in the
number of children he may COM
nit to institutions by commits
sioners appropriating too small
an amount to that fund.
Another decision handed down
was to the effect that county
poor relief funds cannot be used
to pay for special nurses, or op-
Grating or delivery room care of
an INDECENT person because such
services are not medicine. These
services must be paid by the
township or city in which the pa
tient is resident, according to
the decision.

Warden Makes Study
of Dead Deer Report
Says That Deer In Meadow
Mountain Refuge Did Not Die
Starvation

Rumors that from twenty-seven 10
forty deer had been found dead in the
deer corral in the Meadow Mountain
game refuge along Deep Creek Lake,
was termed a great mistake" by
E. Lee LeCompte, State Game War
den, who made a personal inspection
and reported that actually only ten
carcasses of the animals were found.
Seven of these were adult deer and
three were newborn faWns, all APP
parently having been dead for several
months and two Of them for more than
year. Two Of the animals had been
killed by bobcats.
LeCompte was assisted in the inves-
tigation by Joseph A. Minke, regional
game warden; Richard S. Browning
deputy game warden, and Henry Bow
man, caretaker.
Contradicting reports that the deer
had died of starvation, Mr.. LeCompte
stated that more than three tons OF
hay had been placed in the corral dur
ing the winter as we'll as quantities OF
corn.
eve are sure the cause Of the deaths
of these deer was not starvation" LIE
Compile said. He pointed out the winte1
of 1939-1940 was a severe one. The re-
port did not state if the food had been
placed so that the deer could have had
access to it during the winters deer
SHOWS, but the presumption is that ii
was so placed.
Eight openings have been made il
the nine-foot fence surrounding the
corral to permit the deer to come and
go as they please, as deer is now plen-
tiful in the Meadow Mountain area and
there is little furaher need Of keeping
the animals penned

The Sunday schools meet next Sun
day at the usual time. The church ser
vice at Red House at 10:40; young
peoples service at 800 o'clock in the
evening.
The pastor will preach on the Epis-
tie for the day, giving special empha-
sis to the text: "Be not afraid; neither
be troubled, but sanctify the Lord God
in your hearts" This Scripture is both
a comforting and instructive message
for all who suffer, or who may be
called upon to suffer for righteousness
sake in the days to come. Mutitudes
across the seas live in constant fear;
they are overwhelmed by pain and
sorrow. Our fears and cares, while not
worthy to be compared with their, are
very real and grievous. Our hearts
cry out for comfort and help. Does
the almighty God hear the cry? Does
lie promise peace and joy and victory
to those who put their trust in Him ?

To the Editor Of The Republican.
1t has been reliably reported to me
by a number of people that the County
Commissioners of this county have
stated that l am holding several thous-

ing total of $26,812.58. During the
same period l paid out on county or
ders the sum of $26,773.13, leaving a
balance on hand and subject to orders
issued by the County Commissioners
at the close of business on June 10Th
in the amount of $39.4 This is all the
money now available for payment OF
current orders.
At the present time | have on hand
county orders in the amount of $685.

GOntrum's Ban On Fireworks Is
Declared Invalid By Court

A permanent injunction against en-
forcement of fireworks regulations
made public recently by State Insur-
ance Commissioner John B. Guntrum,
was issued Tuesday by Judge Eugene
O'Dunne, in Baltimore.
Under the injunction the Court re-
strains the Commissioner from at
tempting to enfore any fireworks reg
ulations except written orders directed
against buildings where the storage
of fireworks may constitute a fire
hazard. The Court held that Centrum
exceeded his powers in establishing
the regulations.
William C. Walsh, Attorney Cen
eral, representing Mr.. Centrum, adj
mitted that the Commissioner lacked
the authority to regulate fireworks
to the extent he had attempted and
also acknowledged he had no power
to enforce the regulations.
The Baltimore Fireworks and Spec
ialty Company, Inc, and Harry C.
Kahl and Brothers Company, whole
sale fireworks dealers, asked for the
injunction, asserting the regulations
violated their constitutional rights.

DELAWARE ARTILLERY
BEST IN THIS COUNTRY

The 198th Coast Artillery, Della
ware National Guard, has been des-
ignated as the outstanding National
Guard Coast Artillery regiment in
the United States for 1889.
Colonel George J. Schulz, command
ing officer, last Saturday received
word of this honor from the Coast
Artillery Association of the United
States, which annually provides a
trophy for the honor.
The regiment won the trophy for
the calendar year of 1884 and was in
second place in 1886, 1897 and 1888.
The award is based principally on fir
ing scores of the regiments which
are checked by the Coast Artillery
Board at Fort Monroe, Va, and the
award presented on the basis of a
report made by Major-General John
F. Williams of Washington, chief of
the National Guard Bureau.
Colonel Schulz said last Saturday
morning: "For regiment to win the
trophy twice is very unusual and it
speaks highly for the organization.
1t means everyone in the regiment,
officers and men, is pulling together
Lieutenant Colonel S. B. I. Duncan,
regimental executive officer, 198th
Coast Artillery, was jubilant over the
award.

of all the reginiental officers" he

have been accomplished by 100 per
