PHIL |. SCHER
DIED SUDDENLY
TUESDAY, nth
Was Highly Esteemed BY All
Who Had Business Or Social
Relations With Him
BODY CARRIED TO
BALTIMORE FOR BURIAL

Last week, the death of Phillip l..
Scher, prominent merchant of this
city was chronicled. On Wednesday
morning, his body was taken to Bal
timore and inferred. It was, there
fore, too late for the Democrat" to
record such. information as would re-
veal the deceased's history, either
socially or commercially.
Since the last rites, it has been
learned that Mr.. Scher was born in
Lithuania, on April 1, 1887. This
country was at one time a grand
duchy of Europe, and its history has
always been closely connected with
that of Poland, of which it once form
ed a part. Mr.. Scher's parents were
Mr.. and Mrs. Sydney Scher.
When about Is years of age, Mr..
Scher came to America, and, with his
parents, took up residence in Balti-
more. In few years he removed to
Exmore, Va, where he engaged in
the mercantile business for over 80
years. From there he came to Po-
comoke City, where he has continued
this work very successfully.
Surviving the deceased are his
widow, Mrs. Rose Scher; one daugh-
ter, Miss Sarah Leah Scher, Wash
ington; two sons, Leonard Scher, and
Irving Henry Scher, Pocomoke; two
sisters, Mrs. Rose Gall, Lexington,
KY, and Mrs. Adam Barban, Cape
Charles; also by two brothers, Louis
Scher, Baltimore and Herman Scher,
Pocomoke and by several nieces and
nephews.
During his residence in Pocomoke,
Mr.. Scher, by his industry, capability,
and integrity, had won the confidence
of the public and had seen his bust
ness daily increase. He was a man
in community progress,
and ever ready to contribute his time
and means to local advancement.
He was a member of the Lions

SUPPORTERS OF
TAX MEASURE
BEFORE HOUSE
Taxpayers Swarm Into Annap-
oils To Influence Favor For
Free Real Estate
FORMER SEN. VEASEY AR
CUES BEFORE COMMITTEE

One of the largest delegations ever
to visit the State capitol to urge the
passage of any legislative measure,
appeared in Annapolis on Wednesday
last, to urge the passage of bill Civ
ing the voters of the State the privi-
lege of amending the Constitution in
such a way as to eliminate the State
tax on real estate.
The foremost speakers on the bill
were Senator Dudley G. Roe, and Mil
ton L. Veasey, former Senator from
Worcester. In his remarks the lat
ter took occasion to say:
"The Federal Government and the
State are encrouching more and more,
year by year, upon prerogatives of
the municipalities and of the counties.
"Should this continue, the smaller
governmental units will be put to it
to find sufficient revenue to adequate
ly exist. Indeed, they are hard
pressed even now.
"What is the answer? 1t has been
found by more than twenty States.
The answer is to let the real estate
alone for Federal and State purposes,
so that the municipalities and the
counties may have this source of
revenue for their livelihood. They
have no other source to tap. The
State may levy what tax it pleases.
Another reason is the inequality
of assessment, which has never been
and which cannot be corrected. The
frailty of human nature makes this
correction impossible. If the States
tax is abolished, the manner in which
the counties assess their real estate.
loses it's significance.
"Real estate has provided debt SER
vice for long, long time. The small
home owner and the hard pressed
farmer are now entitled to relief.
Their full duty has been performed

Mr.. S. Lee Englar, Manager of the
Salisbury office of the Maryland

1--WE expect more openings in indus
trial and farm work this Spring than
at any time in the history of the EN-
ployment Service, says Mr.. Englar,

tage of all unemployed and those en-
ployed at other than their usual type
of employment, to place their apph-
cations on file with the Employment
Service"
The Mayor and City Council of Po-
comoke are sponsoring the drive, and
have provided interviewing quarters
on the first floor of the old fire en-
CINE house on Willow Street. Mr..
Englar will have his representative at
this point on the following Satur-
days: March % and 20; and April S,
IL and 10, between the hours of /
P. M. and P. M. for the purpose of
registering those people who are anx-
ious to avail themselves of the service
he has to offer. There is no fee for
either registration or placement.
The Salisbury office is open Mon
day through Friday, between $3.50 A.
M. and 400 P. NJ, and on Saturdays
between $3.50 A. M. and 1900 Noon,

ever, Is just one short of the
league record held by Johnny

tops in the league Schwa and
Walt Kazlusky, also Of Central
Specially. both have scored 70

honors.
Mainly due to Bits efforts Unit
ed Stove stayed on even terms with
the Townsley team In the first
half. Ten points were scored by
the Stovemen during the two quar-.
ters and all were ia lied by Suffer.
Twelve points was the total chalk
ed up by Townships as o. Towns

The growth of shore facilities. he
emphasized, must keep pace with
the growth of the fleet.
With reference to the construc-
ton of new radio facilities at Ana
costa and at other air stations, Ad-
miral Towers said a recent order of
the chief of naval operations re-
quired two-way radio facilities at all
ar stations.
Representative Bates, Republican,
of Massachusetts questioned Ad-
miral Towers about the safety Of
the proposed Congress Heights radio
towers to air traffic. recalling the
death of one of our colleagues in

Believes Site Is Safe.
The committee member referred to
the recent air transport crash in
which Representative Byron, Dem
ocrat, of Maryland was killed after
the plane struck trees. Admiral
Towers said the site for the Ana
costa towers has been investigated
and was regarded as entirely safe.
When Chairman Vinson asked
why the Navy was changing the
Banana River Florida Air Station
from an operations base to a train
ing center, Admiral Towers ex-
planned that air expansion was con-
sidered paramount in the Navy and
training enough pilots was a vital
need-more important than oper-
ating established air arms.
The Navy air chief described pro-
posed improvements in the air sta
ton at BARRIERS Point, Hawaii, as
mo. on the list" He said Admiral
Harold Stark, chief of naval opera
tions, had told him to drop every
thing else and urge this project" :"
The Fleet Air Force is in immediate
need of more facilities in Hawaii,
