The proposal must be approved by
two thirds of the growers voting
in order to become effective.
Mr.. Stelzer said that official re-
turns would not be available until
about $50 challenged votes were
ruled on tomorrow at the final tally

Only two counties, Allegany and
Carroll, returned unfavorable major
tiles. In Garrett County, no votes

SALE OF CHRISTMAS
SEALS FALLS SHORT

Announcement was made this week
by Mrs. Eugene S. Grifis, general
chairman, that the 1910 Christmas
Seal sale is $3.50 short of reaching the
goal of $4,000, necessary to carry out
the 1910 tuberculosis program.
Committee members, busy the past
few days checking returns at their
headquarters, discovered that about
$50 regular contributors are yet to be
heard from and busted themselves pre-
pairing reminders to be sent out Sat-
urday.
"We feel sure that our old friends
will come along and help as usual this
year." Mrs. Griffis said, "and are
anxious to hear from them as soon as
possible so that we can conclude our
reports"
Analysis of returns shows that 148
people whose names begin with the
letters B, H, and S are yet to be heard
from, and that only two people whose
names begin with 2 have not replied
"Of course more names begin with
B, H, and S, but we hope that all will

Injury Compensation
Decision Challenged

San Francisco, Cal.-Charging that
the workmen's compensation of an en-

had been reduced from $21.60 weekly
to $16.20 through use of average earn
ings instead of rate of pay as basis
for computation, attorneys for the
California State Federation of Labor
appealed to the State Industrial Acct
dent Commission to reverse the deci-
sion of the referee who made the
ruling.
While the amount involved in the
case is not large, since the disability
covered short period of time, the
attorneys said "the practice of basing
compensation on average earnings in
stead of rates of pay is costing work
ers huge sum in the aggregate"

BROWN ASSAILS
REUTHER PLAN

Washington, D. C.-President Har-
vey w. Brown of the International As
sociation of Machinists challenged the
plan put forward by Walter Reuther,
vice-president of the C. 20. Auto
mobile Workers to convert unused ca
pacity of the automobile industry to
airplane production.
After making a detailed study of
Reuther's plar and similar plans, Mr..
Brown, whose union has many thou
sands of members in both plane and
auto plants, issued a statement de-
claring that, while parts for airships
can be built in almost any shop
equipped for the purpose, the bodies
-"most important of all"-must be
constructed in airplane plants.
"Unless we want to turn out flying
coffins, the body of the ships must be
turned out in its entirety in airplane
factories" he said. Automobile
builders and engineers who visited
airplane factories and witnessed the
requirements for erecting bodies
agreed that building an airplane is a
very different job from building an
auto.
''The structural design of great
majority of automobile factories is
unsuited for erecting the type of war
planes that are needed New airplane
factories can be built in less time than
would be required for renovating au-
tomobile plants"
Speed of plane production depends
primarily on the output of bodies.
Therefore, it would be of little value
for the auto industry to produce parts
for 500 planes a day, if airplane fac
tories turn out only 25 bodies daily,
Brown said.
The solution, he contended, ''is to
erect more airplane factories"
mechanics needed for this job are
available in branches of industry not
engaged in defense work." Brown as
serted.

Because this nation has reached the
conclusion that we cannot afford to
permit Britain to be defeated, our
British friends appear willing to dump
the whole war in our laps.
We are going "all out" to help them,
and this effort of ours, which includes
just about everything except sending
our men over there, leads to the belief
that instead of helping Britain to fight
it's own war we are permitting them
to fight our war.
And from that premise Britons seem
to think we should take off their hands
all responsibility, send them men,
money and material, and push Hitler
