johnson Loses to Byron Nip and Tuck Fight in Maryland
Lasf-Inning Rally
By Opponent Defeats
Former Pitcher
Democrats Win Eosily
In All Other House
Races Except in First

The first attempt of Walter P.
johnson, former Washington pitch
ing ace, at big league politics was a
real ball game down to the last
inning, but he finally met defeat
at the hands of Representative
Byron for the 6th Maryland dis
trict seat.
Mr.. johnson, a Republican who
entered politics two years ago by
winning the post Of Montgomery
County commissioner in the midst
of a Democratic landslide, cut deep
ly into Mr.. Byron's lead, but trailed
today by 8o15 votes with only 10
precincts missing.
The final result was in doubt, in
fact, until late returns from Wash
/ ington County, home county of Mr..
Byron, began piling in, giving him a
safe margin. Mr.. Byron, who came
into Montgomery County 4,500 votes
behind his Republican opponent, A.
Charles Stewart, two years ago, re-
ceived a surprising vote in the west
ern part of the district.
Returns from 271 of the 287
polling places in the 9Th district
gave Mr.. Byron 55,656 votes and
Mr.. johnson 48,74l.
First District Race Close.
The contest in the 1st Maryland
district was the only other doubtful
race in the State, the other four
Democratic Representatives win
ming easily. In the 1st district
Representative Ward finally pulled
away from Robert F. Duer, lRepub-
lican, in the Eastern Shore dis
trict. With only of the 1873 polling
places unreported, Mr.. Ward had
$4,000 votes and Mr.. Duer 30,59l,
unofficial returns showed.
otherwise returns from through
out the State showed Maryland re-
tanning its traditional Democratic
status with returns virtually COM
plete from 1878 of the States 1881
polling places. Despite the third

 NEW RESTAURANT

Bill DzinSky, for several years operator of one Of the most popu- lar eating places in the West End, opened a new restaurant at 23 Watertown avenue Saturday and it clicked from the minute the doors were opened. It was a case ot standing room only' as walters, chefs and bus boys attempted to take care of the overflow Of GUS toners. Parking was at pre- mium on Watertown avenue Sat urday night and the business rush continued until the early hours Of the morning.
 Bills popularity in the West End is well known and it certainly was attested to by his opening Satur- day.
 The restaurant is located in an ultra modern new home, air-con- ditioned and roomy. Counter, table and booth service is provided. The new restaurant specializes in lunch es. dinners, sandwiches, chile con carne pastry, etc. The new res taurant will be open "A hours daily

BY NEA SERVICE

Chicago, April Eight million dollars a year in excess costs, due to collision between unions and con- tractors. have definitely retarded building in the Chicago area.
 That is the deliberate conclusion of Leo F. Tierney, special assistant to the attorney general handling the Chicago investigation of alleged antitrust violations in the building field.
 This situation is typical, and its widespread effects are hinted by the fact that indictments have been returned in some 30 cities.
 WHOLE BUILDING RACKET "RACKET-RIDDEN"
 Tierney says: "The whole field is racket-ridden. We have had com- plaints of 32 phases of building op- eration; we are going into all of them"
 Tierney estimates that collusive agreements have held building costs about 25 per cent too high, and that therefore around $8,O00,000 of Chic ago's $4O,OOO,O 900 building bill is vir- tual extortion.
 The mosiac tile case is typical

Scores of WaterburianS who fol- lowed instructions to call fish mar ket and ask for MT Paddock had to look at the calendar to realize that today is April 1, traditional date for pranks.
 The police department switch- board was deluged with calls from innocent victims. Several pedestrians nonchalantly strolled down town streets with signs affixed to their coats.
 Sergt. Joseph Francis Xavier Aloysius Bagley, ex-cowboy, received box of paper cigars as gift from friends. The donors said they were at least as good as the cigars the sarge does smoke, but the eminent horse show championship rider only snorted in disgust.
 One of the jokes of the day invol- we'd a telephone call to the operator of a local package store. The caller left an order for several quarts of Scotch and Old Crow and said he desired to talk to the owner of the store personally. The owner not being present the caller said he would have an additional order anc left a telephone number for the owner to call.
 When the owner called it was 2 local old ladies home.

3 HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW?
Uncommon Vegetables Easy To Grow In Your Garden
ere are many uncommon vege-

There are many uncommon vege- tables which grow easily in the backyard. Some of them should be tried every year to see whether you like them.
 Leeks are cousins of the onion, highly valued by Europeans. They are fried, sometimes baked, and often used in stews. They thrive better If transplanted. Use a dibber to do this, and instead of filling in the hole, let the rain wash soil in gradually.
 Kohlrabi is similar to the turnip, and is often cooked in the same way, but is sweeter. They are eSpe- cially valuable in sections where turnips are difficult.
 Peppers are not so uncommon, but better and Sweeter varieties can be grown in the home garden.
 Eggplants are usually available on the market, but can be easily grown at home. When breaded and fried in butter they are one of the finest garden delicacies. Don't start them until the weather is warm.
 Chinese cabbage, or celery cab bage, as it is often called, is gain ing in popularity and would be a welcome addition to your regular list of vegetables, especially the fal, crop. It resembles COS lettuce, but the leaves are more firm and cab bage-like. It is fine salad material also delicious when boiled.
 Salsify, oyster plant, is tasty root with Q distinctive flavor which is used in soups and stems. It i very hardy, and, like its cousin, the parsnip, may be left in the ground all winter, and dug up for use when. ever needed.
 Okra is another good seasoner tt give new tastes to old dishes. It car be grown in northern gardens il started indoors and then trans planted.
 Celeriae, the rooted celery, give the cele.y taste to cooked thing much better than celery itself.

Church Needs Youth,
 Youth Needs Church
Rev. Dr. Walker Urges Sympathy Towards Young
 People Bearing Most of Unemployment Burden

needs youth with its vigor and en- terprise, its candid criticism and Its unheeding, if sometimes seemingly impractical idealism, its crusading zeal, its enthusiastic royalties and its gay, adventurous spirit. On the other side youth certainly needs the church, all the more because of the handicaps and disappointments un- der which it must labor in these days. The church should be the place where young people feel free to turn with their problems ano their heartaches. The church must be the rallying point for their finest enthusiasms, the guardian of thelr ideals, the strength and stay of their growing Christian character.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-04-01

"In every walk of life there is a valid reason for saying Youth must be served!-Youth will be served!" stated Rev. Dr. John c. Walker, pastor of the Second Congregational Church, yesterday morning in his sermon entitled, Youth Will Be Served!"
 Dr. Walker said in part:
 We know very well that this is true in the Church of Christ. The leaders of a church are foolish and short-sighted indeed if they tend to think of their church as a kind of closed corporation, a stronghold ot middle-aged piety or the Sanctitles of old age. A well rounded program, a statesmanlike policy in church takes full account of the interests of the children and the young people I have known not few lay leaders in the churches who were far more concerned that their church should interest and serve the coming gen. eration than anything else and I make bold to say that think that they were exceedingly wise in their day and generation. We know that wise retail businessmen make care- full and expensive studies in order to forecast the shifts and changes ot retail trade centers in the future. When they choose a location for a store they make the choice, not merely on the basis of present trade and traffic, but with due regard to what is likely to be the situation ten, twenty, twenty-five years hence. Youth must be served in the church as in the world at large and We must be mindful of the future.
 More particularly in these times we ought not to forget the young people and their moral and religious problems. suppose it was always more or less difficult for the young CT generation to find a foothold, to get their bearings but it appeals to me that we ought to be extremely sympathetic with youth and young people in these distressing times Some of us older grown remember a rational, ordered, stable world, the world before the war of 1914. Those who have grown up since that time or are now in the process have never known stable, hopeful, promising conditions. For years past we have had a standing army of unemploy' ed, and very large measure of thi! burden of unemployment has faller on two groups, the young and thu men in their fifties and sixties.
 My conviction is that the church

FORGOTTEN MANI
 OF RADIO PRIEST
Asks Him to Turn His At= tentiOn to Preserve
 Liberty, Peace

Detroit, April 1-(UP)-The Rev. Charles E. Coughlin suggested in a regular Sunday sermon that the forgotten man" devote his atten- tion to internal problems to pre- serve "the liberty and the peace" which he said Europe have lost.
 Father Coughlin cautioned per- sons who he said were "being lulled to sleep, as far as our domestic af- fairs are concerned" to remember the World War but to concentrate upon the state of the American low income groups, small business men farmers, and unemployed, and the prevalence of idle capital.
 He said that the belligerent na- tions could not escape bankruptcy if they wage total war until one side or the other is annihilated' but stressed attention upon the domes- tic problems "even though the old world is determined to commit sui eide"
 If we must wage war" he said "let us wage it against the evils which exist within our own bor- ders."
