UNDER THE PAIL OF WAR

For twenty years." says Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wickard, 'all
of us have lived under the pail cast
by the last World War. The econ
omic and political consequences of
the short-sighted peace treaties af-
ter that conflict have destroyed our
farm export market and bred the
new world conflict of today. If MAJ
ism is frustrated, we can--with vi
sion and observation-disclosures to it
that the new peace is fair peace
and lasting peace. BY taking real
istic economic and political steps,
we can establish conditions of free
dom and opportunity for all coun-
tries and all people. Farm exports
can expand, world trade can flourish
and the trade rivalries, economic
warfare, and chronic unemployment
of past years can be forgotten. We
face a completely different pros
pect if Hitler WINS

DANGER AT HOME

AS a people, we Americans do
things in mysterious way. We will
do all in our power to help release
foreign nations from the hands OF
dictators. Then we will accept a
labor policy here at home which, II
not corrected, will nullify all the
help we seek to extend to others.
The list of defense industries
that have been or are struck is too
long to enumerate. Take but one as
an example, the Southern coal min
es. without coal, our defense eff
forts would be paralyzed. 1t is esti-
mated there is only 15 days sup
ply of coal above ground. The mines
were closed through April with one
strike. Yet labor leaders threaten
another coal strike to enforce de-
mands, instead of accepting arbi-
tration.
The Presidents declaration of a
national emergency may prevent it.
But all the people have suffered
and stand to suffer more from such
methods.
There are different types of ma
tional undermining. Our nations
safety is endangered by the domestic
as we'll as the foreign brand.

MARYLAND BANKS MAKE
10000 LOANS

Fifty-one per cent of the banks
in Maryland made more than $780,
900 loans totaling $185, 100000 to
business firms and individuals
throughout the state during the
second half of 1910, according tc
the semi-annaul survey of bank
lending activity made by the Re-
search Council of the American
Bankers Association.
The A. B. A. loan survey was par
ticipated in by 90 Maryland banks
or 51.1 per cent of the 1873 banks i'm
the state.
The average number of new loans
made per bank during the six month
period under review was 38S and the
average size of loans renewed pei
bank was $1,094 and the average re-
newal was for $1,14S.
The average number of new mort
gage loans made per bank was 81
and the average new mortgage made
was for $4,336.

THIRTY SECONDS OF
DESTRUCTION

Count thirty seconds--one-half of
a minute.
In that insignificant length OF
time fire destroyed 1885 worth of
property somewhere in the United
States. In that time, fire attacked
someone's home, someone's store,
someone's factory, endangering life
and irreplaceable possessions. And
during each half minute of every day
seven days a week, 365 days year,
fire will continue to destroy $685.
worth of property unless we do
something about it.
No one should say that he does
MT know what to do. Basic fire pre-
vention is simplicity itself. The Ma
tional Board of Fire Underwriters
recently laid down the rules for a
successful fire prevention campaign
in a few words when it said: LOOK
around you! Burn that rubbish!
Stamp out that cigarette before you
throw it away! Keep gasoline out OF
the house! Fight fire--before it
starts!"
Fire, believe it or not, has killed
more Americans than all the wars
i'm our history. And fire, today, is
even more dangerous than in normal
times. Fire menaces the defense eff
fort. Fire in key factory may stop
the production of essential parts fol-
days and weeks. And fire, at all tim
es, wastes materials, labor, energies
and that most precious of ele-
ments, Time.
Those institutions whose job is
fighting fire are redoubling theii
efforts. The National Board, for in
stance, is using it's full facilities
without charge, to help the Army
and Navy departments prevent fire
in army camps, navy yards, NUM-
ton plants, etc. 1t is carryin gor
an aggressive, 24-hour-a-day fight
against the saboteur. But, vital as
this work is, it is not enough. Every
American must help if fire is to be
defeated. And that means you.

CCC WORKERS PLANT TREES

Approximately 100000 trees
were planted throughout the country
this spring as part of the Depart
ment of Agriculture's national soil
conservation program, H. H. Ben
nett, Chief of the Soil Conservation
Service, reports. Two-thirds of the
trees were planted by CCC workers
in the 391 camps supervised by the
Service. Farmers living in soil con-
servation districts planted most of
the remaining 25,OO0,000. Most of
the trees were set out in badly
eroded fields, i'm gullies, and on hill
tops. Others were planted to pro-
tect stream banks, ponds, highways,
and areas subject to wind erosion.
Pines and black locust outnum-
bered other varities because Of their
adaptability to most sections OF the
country. Other leading kinds in

sian olive, and Siberian elm, accord

farmers and shelter and food for
wildlife.
In planting trees CCC workers
are paired, usually with one digging
the hole and his teammate setting
the tree. Many of these became ex-
pert at tree planting and planted
from 200 to 1000 seedlings day,
depending upon size, species, and
the type of soil.

AGRICULTURE AND
CONCEPTION

According to an editorial in the
Dairymen's League News of New
York, Brigadier General Ames T
Brown, New York State Director Of
Selective Service, states that con-
scription boards serving rural areas
have as great a responsibility to
not increase the~shortage of skilled
farm labor as do boards in urban
areas not to drain the supply OF
skilled industrial workers. "Agricul-
ture," the General said, lis among
the nations chief defense industries
and it would endanger the health
and safety of the nation if farmers
were deprived Of irreplaceable
workers."
Here is an example all states
should follow. For every man under
arms, there must be men in the
fields and in the factories to supply
his needs--and to supply civilian
needs as well. All CONSUMPTION
boards face a tremendous respon-
sibility in this.

ON WITH THE CRAB FEAsTs

With oysters enjoying their usual
summer vacation and crabs playing
the leading role on the shelltish
menu, sanitary supervision of the
seafood industry by the State De-
partment of Health is centering on
crabs and crab handling plants.
Preliminary inspections OF the
various plants in Maryland were
made before the season opened,
under the direction of Mr.. A. l.. Sui
Ivan, Chief of the Bureau of Food
and Drugs of the State Department
of Health.
The results of these preliminary
inspections were generally favorable
Mr. Sullivan said, and showed that
the operators of such plants are be-
coming more and more sanitary re-
quirement conscious" particularly
with regard to the necessity of plac-
ing the plants in good sanitary con-
dition lat the beginning of the sea-
son and of keeping them so. The
operators have grown more and
more aware also, he said of the i'm
portance of personal cleanliness on
the part of the employees and of
careful handling of the products TO
prevent contamination, and of the
necessity for quick refrigeration of
the crabmeat to prevent spelling.
1.-THE sanitary supervision of the
crabmeat industry, Mr.. Sullivan
continued, closely parallels that of
the oyster industry. Like that, it is
a question of supply and demand
demand ON the part of the public
that the product they buy and use,
be fresh, of the best quality pos
sible, clean, and free from contain
ination.
Largely as a result of the inves-
LEGATIONS and inspections made in
cooperation with the U. S. Food and
Drug Administration, there has been
steady improvement in the way in
which the product has been handled.
Last year, for example, the amount
of crabmeat condemned was negli-
gible.

MOTORISTS CALLED UPON TO
SAVE GASOLINE

Motorists in Maryland were call
ed upon by the Automobile Club of
Maryland today to save 58,000,OOO
gallons of gasoline during the cur
rent year as patriotic contribution
toward solving the problem of Pc
troleum shortage on the Eastern
Seaboard, and as means of avoid
ing "gasless Sundays"
1--WE can avoid restrictions on mo-
tor car use If al m o.
florists will reduce their average
speed on the open highway, refrain
from 'jackrabbit' getaways in city
driving, and adjust car for maxi
mum efficiency" Mr.. Elmer H. Rill,
President Manager of the Bel Air
Branch of the Automobile Club Of
Maryland said.
Because of removal of tankers
from the coastal trade, the entire
Eastern Seaboard, from Maine to
Florida, is definitely faced with
gasoline famine. 1t is estimated that
over billion gallons must be cut
from estimated demand in order to
meet the deficiency.
Secretary of Interior Ickes, who
has been named Petroleum Coor-
dinator for National Defense, is
planning number of measures to
make up for the reduction in tank
ers. Pipe lines are being built and
other steps being taken, but all this
requires time.
Meanwhile, unless motorists CO.
operate by adopting feul-saving
practices we are faced with the pos
sibility of 'gasless Sundays and
possibly other more severe restric-
lions on pleasure driving.
"Tests conducted by the AAAs
Contest Board and other agencies
prove definitely that well over 20
per cent of normal fuel require
ments can be saved simply by re-
| framing from wasteful driving
practices.
Gasoline Consumption Per Mile
Mounts Rapidly At High Speeds. A
car that gets 10 miles to the gallon
at 80 m.p.h. will get only 1925 miles
to the gallon at so m.p.h. Millions OF
gallons of gasoline are wasted by
hasty getaways in city traffic; it has
been demonstrated that 80 per cent
or more gas can be saved by avoid
ing necessary stops. Additional mil
lions of gallons of gasoline are vast
ed by faulty engine adjustment,
and even driving on soft tires burns
up precious gallons.
These practices are costly to mo-
florists and should be avoided under
all conditions, but the exigencies
of national defense make it impera-
tive that measures of fuel economy
be adopted Immediately. Every mo-
torist will be helping his country
and serving his best interests if he
will drive slowly; save gas--and
avoid 'gasless Sundays

SOCIALISM ISN'T DEMOCRATIC

1t is much easier for the people
to get the government to maintain
proper regulation of private indus
try than it is to get the government
to check on government-owned in
dustry. In the former case the gov
eminent is a neutral party; in the
latter case the governmet is not a
neutral party, and is not likely to
regulate without prejudice.
For a government to be democrat
ic it must be neutral. The thing that
makes democracy is the ever-pres-
ent existence of neutral force with
sufficient strength to outweigh any
dictatorial group. When the govern
ment owns and operates enterprise,
it's neutral relations with society are
destroyed. 1t becomes less demo-
cratic and more dictatorial. Social
ism isn't democratic!

'As We look forward to the flu
ture of our country" says M. l..
Wilson of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, I'VE must think of more
than mere subsistence for anyone
willing to work. We must consider
seriously what our permanent popu-
lation policy shall be.
Can we develop a pattern of civ
ilization whereby it is possible to
combine all the qualities of rural
living with the opportunities which
science and technology and modern
industry offer? Is there way in
which we can help folks live in
contact with the warm, growing
earth and yet find things to do that
bring out the best in their innate
desire to be creative and economical
ly useful?
1.-The goal seems to be in that d.
rection. think it is very much
worthwhile goal Mankind should be
able to live humanity and to get the
most out of nature on the one hand

MARINE CORPS TRAINING
PROGRAM

Washington, d. c., June 3D.
The intensive training program of
the First Marine Division, Fleet Ma
rine Force--crack shock troops of
the United States-is being contin-
tinued at an even greater pace in
preparation for any emergency, it
was made known here in an an
nouncement by Secretary of the
Navy Frank Knox.
The fleet unit of the United States
Marine Corps, which returned to the
United States in April after several
months or rugged training maneu-
vers in the Caribbean and at Guam
tanamo Bay, Cuba, has been con-
tinuing it's fast program at Marine
Corps bases at Quantico, Va, and
Paris Island, S. C.
The force is developing and i'm
proving upon new techniques in
landing operations in conjunction
with ships of the Atlantic fleet.
The First Marine Division moved
into the Caribbean area in October,
1910, and carried ON rigorous joint
operations with the feet throughout
the winter.
In February the Marines con-
Quoted strenuous maneuvers in the
area of Puerto Rico.
1t has also been announced that
the new training area. of the First
Marine Division at New River, N.
c., is well under way and that tenn
porary facilities for 5000 soldiers
of the sea will be completed by
July /.
Additional training facilities have
been added to the Marine Base at
Quantico, including motor transport,
amphibfan tractor, water distilla-
ton, demolition, camouflage, and
signal communication schools.
