A X IOneS Pastor

The church service conducted by the
pastor will be held at St. Johns at
10;40. The Sunday schools and the
young peoples programs at the usual
time. The League will study Facts
About Our Congregation"
"Your Reasonable Service" is the
theme of the pastors sermon, sug-
gested by the Epistle for the day, the
first Sunday after Epiphany. Gov
ernments are demanding tremend-
GUS sacrifices on the part of all citi-
zens. St. Paul makes an earnest appeal
for Living Sacrifice on the part of all
Christians, and with the thought of
our Saviour's sacrifice in mind, he
pleads for sacrifice that seems SEN
sible, sincere and self-forgetful. Only
such sacrifice can be well-pleasing
to our gracious and merciful God.
The Holy Communion service has
been announced for the last Sunday
IN January. New members will be re-
ceived and children presented to God
in Holy Baptism at this service of
worship.

Maryland drafted all men from 49,
to 45 for the State militia and threw
up Notifications before Baltimore
and Annapolis. When Congress de-
clared war on June IS, 1912 (the dec
laration, incidentally, was written by
a Marylander, Attorney-General Will
liam Pinkney), 112 privateers set out
from Maryland, So being fitted out
from Baltimore, the largest number
from any port in the country.

h Everybody remembers what our
Marylanders did to the British at
North Point and Fort McHenry. A
lawyer named Francis Scott Key
dashed off little poem called "The
Star Spangled Banner" that keeps us
from forgetting as the years go by.
As far as the Civil War is con-
cerned, Maryland can claim credit for
saving the Union. Had she seeded,
Washington would have been sur
rounded by hostile territory, cut off
from Northern reinforcements and
forced to surrender. Maryland sent
$4,000 soldiers into the Union Army
besides.
A similar number of men went from
Maryland in the World War. And,
Enthusiastically she was the first
State to fill her Navy quota. Governor
Emerson Harrington was the first in
all the States to appoint Prepared
ness and Survey Commission or a
Defense Council.
Maryland had the first hospital
train and was the first State to fill
her quota of physicians. She passed
the first compulsory work law, an act
that soon had the whole country
shouting, "Work or fight" Maryland
ers manufactured munitions and built
ships to degree unprecedented in
history.
In agriculture, Maryland was the
first State to buy tractors for the use
Of farmers when increased production
became essential. And she was the
first to handle farm labor under war
conditions. Every vacant lot, back
yard and field in Maryland sprouted
food and our women stained and cal

Maryland has always done more
than her share in defense whenever
our country has needed it. And, led by
the Maryland Council of Defense and
Resources, she's clearing her decks
again. A tight little State, indeed!

Most Important Bills

The most important bills introduced
provide for permanent automobile
tags, creation of a state home guard,
establishment of two state operated
chronic hospitals; creation of three
man merit system board, regulation
of building and loan associations and
retail installment selling, repeal of
the declaration of intentions act and
the banning of fireworks.
Maryland, whose building and loan
associations hold assets totaling APP
proximately $2OO,OOO,OOO, is one of
the few states which have no super
vision over building and loan compa-
MES.
The councils bill is designed to
safeguard investments of building
and loan company shareholders. 1t
would create a three-man board of
homestead building and loan associa-
ton commissioners, to be appointed
by the governor.
Retail installment selling in Mary
land is now unregulated. Sponsors of
the regulatory bill say it will elimi-
nate current abuses.

General Assembly
Receives 112 Bills:
Breaks Precedent
Members Are AstOnished Over
Rapidly Shown in First
Two Days

Annapolis.-Maryland's general as
sembly saw 112 bills pop into its hop
pers on the second day of the 9O-day
session, breaking all precedent for
legislative speed.
Veteran assemblymen, accustomed
to past easy-going practices, sat in
silent t-can't-be-true" attitudes
while fifty-five measures banged
down in the House and fifty-seven
more in the Senate. The process took
less than an hour
All of the bills but two were pre-
pared by the new legislative council:
the Outsiders" were local measures
regarding municipal elections in Ha-
gerstown.
With the introduction completed
Legislative leaders promptly adjourned
to complete committee assignments
and high-pressure program which
left possibility some non-controver-
sial measures actually would come out
with committee reports by today.
Protest Council Action
Only once-it happened in each
house-could the legislators find
voice; that was when they protested,
with every appearance of helpful in
terest, that it might be illegal to in
troduce bills "by the legislative coua-
Gil"
Leaders swiftly agreed to substitute
the names of presiding officers for
Legislative council" and the COM
plants died.
Under a "streamlined" procedure
adopted by the Senate, the vast ma
jority of council bills there will go to
the finance and judicial proceedings
committees, with fifteen senators ser
wing on one committee and thirteen
on the other.
About a dozen more council bills
are in preparation.
In addition, administration spokes-
men Sdlu Inc new income TAX measure
would be ready for introduction with
in ten days. Despite certain revisions
in the present law, State Comptroller
J. Millard Towes disclosed today that
100000 tax blanks already have gone
out based on last years tax rates.
Officials explained that, if new
rate schedule is adopted, taxpayers
I could merely compute their tax at the
