SHIPS LAY NETS TO CATCH NAZIS

But men and nets are no good without ships. To this end 25 tugs have been purchased, 2l vessels have been converted or built as net auxiliartes and g small net tenders have been ordered, number of these already being completed and on their stations. The balance will be delivered in the course of the current month.
 For the Pacific coast stations the net tenders have been built in ship yards in Houghton, Wash. For the Atlantic coast the interesting thing is that small shipyards in Cleveland, Ohio, and Point Pleasant, W. Va, have been used. The Cleveland vessels go down to the sea via the Great Lakes. The West Virginia ships go down the Ohio River, thence by the way of the MissiS- stppi river, Gulf of Mexico and to the Atlantic.
 Owing to the peculiar prov of some of these ships, they have al- ready been labeled by the seamen-- "Schnozzle Durantes."

 Finally, back to his own warden station. Is his deputy there? And his own house, what of that? Some where, at home or elsewhere, re- lieved by his deputy, he can go and rest himself.

DerWOOd Citizen

Teachers Group
Pass Resolutions
On Salary Cut
SOciO- Economic Committee
Of County Teachers AssO-
citation Voices Opposition
To Proposal

At meeting of the Socio-E
nomic Committee of the Montgom-
cry County Teachers Association
in Rockville the following resolu-
ton was passed:
RESOLVED: By the Socio- Eco
nomic Committee of the Montgom-
cry County Teachers Association,
that the constitutionally required
equalization of salaries of colored
and white teachers should not be
effected by subtracting from the
salaries of white teachers and add
ing to the salaries of colored
teachers.
Furthermore, it is resolved that
no legislation be formulated which
will adversely influence the educa-
tional program of Montgomery
County by making up the $4,000.
deficit in a manner which will de-
duct the financial aid Montgomery
County receives from the State.
This action is taken, based on
the following facts.
/. The Constitution of Mary
land evidently requires equah-
cation of colored and white sala-
ries but the Constitution GER
tainly does not require that
white teachers, just one group of
citizens, pay for this belated
obedience to the law.
2. The necessity of equaliza-
ing salaries of colored and white
teachers was known before the
meeting of the Legislature.
However, it seems to have been
ignored in framing the State
budget.
8. The State is not financially
embarrassed. It is a known
fact that there is a large treas
ury surplus and that tax reduc-
lions are to be put into effect.
a. Since the "war emergency,
the cost of living is rising and
salaries and wages are being ad-
vanced in nearly every profess
sion and industry.
5. To select one group of peo-
pie in the State to make up this
deficit would be extremely unfair
and, inasmuch, as the new salary
scale has just been put into
effect, it would probably be det-
rimental to the morale of the
teaching personnel.
