NEW MARYLAND ROADS

Within two weeks Congress will
be asked to appropriate from 200
to 500 million dollars for the build
ing of "tactical' and 'acceSS'
highways in various parts of the
country Wher eacute defense needs
call for quick road construction.
Maryland's bite out of this money
will be around $5000,000.
And under recommendation of
Thomas Macdonald, able Z. S
Roads Commissioner, it will be
Southern Maryland's roads that
will be rerouted and rebuilt so as
to accommodate increased Navy
traffic between Washington, Indian
Head and Dahlgreen, Va.
These routes are characterized
by the Navy Department as tacti-
cal and essential to defense needs.
The work will be started as soon
as the ink is dry on the enabling
legislation and will be rushed to
completion through the coming
spring ana summer.
Southern Maryland roads con-
meet with the newly-opened Poto-
mac River Bridge which at present
is being avoided by the larger
trucking companies because the
heavy truck fleets would pound to
pieces the antiquated road sur
faces, particularly between La
Plata and the Bridge
So bad is this stretch that the
American Automobile Association
has publicly warned New York
traffic, desiring to use the bridge,
to avoid it in going from Baltimore
to Fredericksburg

money is announced. the U. S.

al millions to other Maryland road

O'CONOR FOR THE SENATE

U. s. Senate against Tydings in

SICKNESS FROM 1910
REPORTABLE CASES
Maryland'S Health COndi-
tiOnS For Year Were
Generally Favorable

Health conditions in Maryland
in 1910 were generally favorable,
as indicated by a recent report of
Dr.. r. H. Riley. Director of the
State Department of Health, giving
provisional figures for sickness
from the 'repOrtable" diseases -
during the year.
There were nearly $4,000 cases
Of the catching" diseases reported
in the State in 1910 in comparison
with 1895 cases in 1889. The
high total in 1899 was due largely
to the measles outbreak of that
year in connection with which
there were IA ,232 cases reported.
The disease was at a low ebb in
1910; only 246 cases were reported.
The total sickness from the re-
portable diseases in 1910 was di
vided between Baltimore City and
the counties as follows: Baltimore
City 23.12S cases: the counties, 49,
1872 There were significant de.
creases in three diseases that "a
always matters of special concern;
typhoid fever. diphtheria and tu-
berculosis. Typhoid dropped from
1872 in 1899 to 1876 last year; Giph-
liberia from PAS in 1899 to 1873 in
1910 and tuberculosis from 2,721
cases in 1899 to 1852 in 1910.

and British armies were no

Were they in a position TO

1t was that situation that Hitler
had 10 wreck before Germany
could start using her military
forces to expand her territory
TT WAS in February, 1888.
l. that Hitler began his diplo-
matte attack on Austria. In
April, 1888, he forced a German
Austrian union with masSed
troops on the Austrian frontier.
This took place with the tacit
approval of the British and
French governments. who were
following Mr.. Lindbergh's ad-
vice.
Up until this time there was
no Siegfried Line. The Siegfried
Line was built with a prodigious
effort in the Summer of 1888.
All that Summer, while the
line was being built, negotiations
were going on between the
British and German govern
ments to accomplish exactly
what Lindbergh was advising:
Give Germany a free hand in
the East. These negotiations
ended in September, 1898. with
the Munich pact. Hitler. having
meanwhile built the Siegfried
Line, accomplished by the
Munich pact his greatest VIC
tory in the whole war: the
breaking of the Franco-RuSsian
alliance and the assurance of a
one-front war.

back from Munich with Peace

And it was here that Hitler
revealed that his pact had
strings TO it, even in the West.
He strongly objected TO Britain's
rearmament as a proof of bad
faith. He began making publicly
the most virulent attacks on
Britain. And he followed Munich
with an ultimatum TO Poland.
EVERYTHING was proceeding

advice. Hitler had embarked on
a war against Russia-the war
Lindbergh had advised the West

MIR. CHARLES A. LIND
AVA BERGH'S last speech is a
remarkable historical document
and remarkable personal con-
fession.
Mr.. Lindbergh claims to be
an isolationist. Yet, in this
speech he reveals himself as one
of the most active intervention
lists in European affairs during
the four years that preceded
the declaration of war. And he
reveals that his personal influ-
ence was not being used TO
prevent war in the only way it
might have been prevented, by
a firm collective stand, but was
being used to urge war--to urge
the western powers TO coliabo-
rate with Hitler for a war
against Russia.
He makes it clear that he
never doubted for an instant
that Nazi Germany intended to
start war.
ut YVES clear to me that Ger
many had, or would soon have,
the strongest army and air
force I'm the world, and that she
intended to use her military
forces to expand her territory"
he said. .......
He therefore urged the British
and the French governments
while pursuing his personal in
terventionism-to build their
military forces with the utmost
rapidity but permit Germany 10
expand eastward into Russia
without declaring war
MIR. LINDBERGH declares
A'A that these governments
disregarded his advice.
Did they?
In September. 1888. while
Mr.. Lindbergh was still acting as
personal and, as far as we
know, self-appointed adviser to
the allied governments of Eu-
rope, these governments, headed
by Mr.. Chamberlain and M.
Deladier, took his advice and
signed an agreement with Hitler
in Munich.
That agreement:
Cd Broke the Franco-Rus-
sian alliance.
GU Disarmed for Hitler 30
superbly trained and fully
equipped Czech divisions.
t3) Handed Hitler a situation
which he Immediately exploited
TO get control of all Czecho-
slovakia and with il the most
powerful armament works in the
East.
Mr.. Lindbergh admits that he
advised the British and French
10 do this. And the American
people surely have the right 10
ask -of~this 'isolationist, ION
whose authority and under
whose influence did you so adj

governments?"
MR.. LINDBERGH says:
uA by 1888 I had come TO the
conclusion that II a war occurred
between Germany on the one
side and France and England on
the other. IL would result either
In q German victory or In

At what time in 1893 did Mr..
Lindbergh reach this conclu-
sion?

speech he says:

WHY Lie About Taxes?

THE treasury department is reported to be drawing up
program of increased social security for the
purpose of financing national defense and preventing
initiation.
The national defense be adequate will be expen
sive and must be paid for
Likewise uncontrolled initiation would be disastrous
only the defense program but also to to the nations
economic life
Nevertheless it should be possible to provide revenues
and establish policies for these necessary purposes with
out practice of deceit and preparation of actual fraud
against the American people.
WHAT is deceit and fraud taxes against
w the people purportedy for social security and then
to spend them for other purposes however commendable
The social security tax is TAX ON WAGES, levied
for the specific purpose of assuring the taxee of security
against want beyond fixed retirement age.
1t is not a tax for any other purpose. --
- Of course it is true that the New Deal administration
has in the past diverted social security taxes to other
purposes
1t has in fact utilized them as prolific of
New Deal spending money for purposes entirely apart
from and unrelated the laudable functions of the
social security program.
The proposed diversion of social security taxes to
defense and the prevention of initiation is therefore of
pattern with past diversions for considerably less audabe
purposes
But it does not diminish the niquity of the practice
that it has precedent
IF THE government desires to levy TAX ON WAGES
against the American people to pay for national defense
and to prevent initiation why does it not frankly declare
its purpose to do so and frankly call the imposed
by its real name?
Why should subterfuge be employed to obtain sacri-
fees from the people for purpose while pretending
another purpose?
wages to be taxed for defense, there should be
crcumvention of the fact.
DLUNTLY, the New Deal administration has never been
- candid really honest with the American people
about the social security program.
1t has already taken billions of dollars from them
with the supposed intention of ultimately paying old
pensions and has spent the money for other and immediate
things, including its extravagances
1t has left the ultimate payment of pensions and
provision of security for future appropriation by Congress
and for future and ADDITIONAL taxation.
This shameful practice acquires merit because of
the possible merit of the new diversions.
Q ECRETARY MORGENTHAU says his first job is 'to
- finance the national defense program We get much
from regular taxes Then we have to borrow
the rest and any make that will help must
be considered"
That is all very true.
But it does not justify the palpabe deceit of levyng
tax impositions against the people under pretext.
