Old Span May
Be Reopened

Leo M. Moore, Of Havre de Grace,
member of the Maryland House of
Delegates, ON Wednesday called Gov
ernor Herbert r. O'Con0r by tele-
phone and urged the reopening Of
the old Susquehanna highway bridge
stating the span would be less liable
to damage by saboteurs If it were
again placed in use for the public's
convenience than its present barri-
caded condition. The Governor said
he was appreciative Of the sugges-
ton and would Immediately take
the necessary steps, including con-
ference with War Department off,
Gals to have the span reopened.
The agreement with the bond
holders of the new bridge was that
the old structure should be RACED
when the new steel structure was
placed in commission, but Governor
O'Conor very wisely halted these
proceedings as he considered the re-
tention of the bridge as an import
ant part of defense, which today has
proven his action was both timely
and patriotic. Ledger.

BY AUNT AGeIE

Sometimes wonder about Christ
mas, as folks observe 1t now
The give an take o. presents, like
swappim', 1t seems, somehow
An l can't help doubtin', little,
though 1t amt for me to say,
II He whose birth lit remembers APP
proves o. the modern way.
OF course it's nice an pretty, all
holly an mistletoe,
With bundles tied in ribbons an
greetings fiyin' SO;
But what sets me a-thinkin'. in a
sort O. doubtful fear,
Is whether exchangin' presents il
more'm selfish cheer.
There want no thought o. barter,
or gifts with strings to them,
When Christ was sent to us, back
there in Bethlehem.
The comfort stills in follerin' the
example from above:
The spirit O. that first Christmas was
pure an simple love.

WELFARE BOARD
LACKS FUNDS

In q statement issued today by Mr..
Joseph r. Grant, Chairman OF the
Cecil County Welfare Board, atten-
ton is called to the fact that the
Board has no funds that can be
used to provide toys and other
Christmas gifts for families who are
receiving assistance. There seems to
be a rather widespread erroneous
belief that families on relief are
being we'll cared for this Christmas
time. This will be true only to the
extent that individuals and organiza-
lions who are in position to give
will share what they have with those
who are less fortunate.
Mr.. Grant pointed out that under
the Public Assistance laws the use
of relief funds is restricted to grants
for the necessities of life, such as
food, fuel, rent, clothing, medical
care, etc., and the amounts given
are not sufficient to leave the fam
lilies any margin for Christmas
cheer. AS everyone knows, there has
been q tremendous increase in the
cost of living. Your dollar and mine
buys far less than 1t did year ago.
The relief dollar Is no more elastic
than the dollar earned as wages, and
i'm many cases it will not stretch to
cover the necessities of life. Yet, so
far it has not been possible to make
allowance for the increased cost Of
living by general increase in grants
to relief recipients. The people who
are ON relief are those who for one
reason or another are not able to
work, whether on account of illness,
old age, or, in the case Of women,
because they have small children
who need mothers care. For this
reason their need is not affected to
any great extent by the improve
ment in industrial conditions.
The Welfare Board and staff will
gladly confer with any persons or
groups who wish to provide Christ
mas cheer for either children or
grown-ups. The Office is located at
Rooms 303-307 in the Court House
and the telephone is Elkton Ala.
