These agencies have operated at a cost of $675,953, which is less than eight percent. I'm not up on my promotion but that seems fair enough.

DISCOVERS OLD WELL OF
HAGERSTOWN'S EARLY DAYS

Charles L. d. Frownfelter, an
employee of the City Light Dept,
might have been at the bottom of
we'll, but for a timely discovery.
While at work at the colored play
grounds, he discovered a suspicious
looking hole in the ground. Investi-
eating, he found it to be the top
of an old well. Peering down into
the depths he was unable to see
the bottom. 1t is evidently one OF
the various wells distributed over
the city in the early days OF
Hagerstown from which residents
got their water supply.

German Rule in Poland
Cincinnati Enquirer)

Ever since German troops completed the con- quest of Poland late last September, the Naz Gov ernment has forbidden foreign newspapermen, and virtually all other foreigners to enter the conquered area In contrast with the mildness of German censorship of news generally, these restrictions on German controlled Poland constitute the most rgor ous censorship in the world today
 Now American consular officials have been forced to leave the area and to perform their work as best they can from Berlin This is drastic step for Germany to take and implies desperate need for concealing the truth of conditions in German Poland
 What facts have been learned of the plight of the Poles chiefly facts released by the Vatican, confirm the impression that dreadful oppression has been instituted
 Germanization by forceful methods is in pro- gress. Poles being deprived of their lands and businesses, to make room for Baltic Germans from Estonia and Latvia. Immense numbers of Polish Jews are being driven off their lands and herded into already overcrowded where they find no livelihood no housing, adequate dole of food, clothing and medical care
 Removal of American consular officers from Poland works hardship on the 500 Americans resi- dent there But this is a small thing compared with Polish people generaly-a cruel process which Ger many is trying by every means to conceal from the world
 It is not too much to say that the injustice done to Belgium in 1914 and years following takes second rank alongside the conquest, pllnder, and persecution of Poland quarter century later.

THE UNITED STATES DISCOVERS
 ALASKA

In the article which he wrote for The Empires recent Progress and Development edition Delegate Dmond spoke of the growing interest of Washington in Alaska and its problems
 Illustrative of this new attitude, which in cdentally has come about only since our present Delegate has been in office and fighting Aaska's battles in the Capital are the following quotes from remarks in the House of Representatives in recent weeks:
 Rep. James M Fitzpatrick of New York-"I believe Alaska is entitled to consideration from our Government We have taken out of Alaska millions and millions of dollars in gold, copper, furs fish other things but have put very little back"
 Rep. Everett M Dirksen of Illinois-"Mr. Chair man. I am rather reluctant to oppose any measure in which the Delegate from Alaska our good friend the gentleman from Alaska. professes deep and abiding interest He is 8 grand person; he is a splendid represent atiye and he has done extreme ly good job for the people Of Alaska

Deathless Year in Air
Cleveland Plain Dealer)


 American commercial aviation is taking we'll meried salute. Last week the 19 commercial trans port lines which operate in this country completed a year without a fatal accident to air line pas SengerS workers. During this period they car ried 2100,000 passengers 86,000000 miles.
 This notable achievement represents more than dozen years of painstaking effort beginning in 1926 when all-year-round operation of closed cabin passenger planes started.
 While good luck had some part in the attain ment of this 12-month record, bad luck contributed to many of the accidents of earlier years, it is not chance achievement Rather is reflects hard work for safety all along the line rigid and meticulous inspection of equipment, main tenance of high standards of skill for flying ano ground personnel and unyieldng refusal to take chances.
 Company officials have cooperated zealously with the Department of Commerce inspection service. Al recognize that aviation has now grown up. AS ar accepted part of the nations transportation facli ties it has put behind it the recklessness of youth

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compeP'
FRIDAY, APRIL 5.

In the morning of this day the planetary influences are not i'm portant. Later, benefic aspects dom mate. Under this sway there should be a strong urge toward helpfulness of individuals or nations. Women will be prominent in public work.
 Heart and Home: Women under the influence of the planet Herschel will become more aggressive in nipeace efforts and relief work for war suf- ferers. This is an suspicious date for them to sign leases or to engage in new employment. The configu- ration favors household interests. Cooking is to become popular as an accomplishment. Girls need not con- template romance under this con- figuration.
 Business Affairs: Advertising is to assume tremendous importance through the summer months. Artists as well as publishers will profit. Government direction of trade and commerce is under fortunate as pects. Canada is to contribute tc the progress of our mercantile and manufacturing interests. Women as shopkeepers will be numerous.
 National Issues: Women will be active in both major political par ties They will advocate many types of reforms including safeguards in the sale of alcoholic drinks, but the stars seem to presage slight re- suits from their endeavors.. The tendency toward appointing women for public office seems to lessen, and reward for campaign work to dwindle, it is prognosticated
 International Affairs: Warning of financial difficulties for warning nations is read in the stars. Great changes in long established banking systems are foretold The United States is to reflect foreign condi- tions, and Americans are advised to conserve their resources. Strange vagaries are presaged for stock mar kets.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year Of good for tune New business or professional associations are probable. The young will be absorbed in romance.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be clever and original, sensitive to artistic influences and inclined to be sympathetic, easily deceived
