Washington, D. c., March 27. =
This summer, which seemed des-
tined to have been the biggest
tourist vacation season for the
Eastern Shore in history, now
looms as a gloomy question mark
all the way from Rehoboth, Della,
to Ocean City, Md.
The blackout part of the prob
lem is not regarded so seriously
as transportation. If there were
sutficiency of tires and gasoline,
the Eastern Shore unquestionably
would have experienced the big
gest boom in years. For the vast,
now-soon-to-sweat population of
Washington had very definitely
put down the Eastern Shore as it's
place of summer surcease from
war-Work. Many who were plan
ming to make weekend pilgrimages
long ago decided to limit the use
of their own private cars in this
connection and use the bus lines
more frequently.
But a check-up on the Greyhound
bus service at the Washington
terminus discloses only gloomy
news. Right now, with people saw
ing their own tires, the bus lines
are literally swamped with normal
business And this is true of all
bus lines. They need not only
tires but new equipment - which
is difficult to obtain.
With daylight saving time like
ly to be boosted another hour, the
blackout phase Of the vacation
business could be satisfactorily
handled with the proper use of
blackout equipment. However,
even this is likely to be far more
The Hagerstown globe., 1942-03-27
stringent than now supposed.
CASEY GOES WEST

Farmer" Casey of aGithersburg
and the White House, is a hero to
some Marylanders and a feared
New Deal disciple to others. But
in the Middle West, Casey is re-
garded as an extremely astute
politicO and a sincere friend of
the western farmer.
What the west thinks of the
young man who took up the New
Deal cudgels in 1888 and eventual
ly became executive assistant to
President Roosevelt, is given by
Gene A. Howe, editor of the Amar-
lilo, Texas, Globe, and republished
in the March 5th issue of the Con-
gressional Record of Representa-
tive Wright Patman.
Farmer Casey delivered the
Washington Day address at Fort
Worth, Texas. following which he
was buttonholed by newspapermen
political luminaries and just plain
curious folk who wanted to know
at first hand what sort of person
was an executive assistant to the
president.
Wrote Editor Howe: This Casey
looks as Woodrow Wilson must
have looked in his early life and
he is probably as much of an ideal
ist at heart. Thi resemblance
startles some. Casey is man of
deep emotional prejudices, and he
gives the impression he is con-
stantly struggling against his true
self in an attempt to accept the
world as it is and not as it should
be.
But Mr.. Casey is tired; he

SURVEY REVEALS
employment Expected to.
Reach Peak Here Dur
ing Summer

Some weeks ago business men Of
Hagerstown were giving much
thought to the housing situation
and government surveys indicated
that within the very near future
workers migrating to this citv
would be unable to find accommo-
dations.
But they were only half right
according to several interested citi-
zens who have just completed their
own survey.
This unofficial survey indicates
a definite shortage of homes, at
this time, in Hagerstown, but as
for furnished rooms for rent
there are hundreds of 'em with no
takers. At least 600 rooms it is
estimated, are available, and manv
of these are listed with the YMCA
and in the offices of the various
industries manufacturing war
equipment. Rentals asked for
these rooms range from SO to S.
weekly.
With the estimated employment
at fifty per cent of its peak today,
and with the construction of addi-
tional homes here, the housing
problem presents a better picture
now than has been the case for
many months. Reason for this is
the fact that many of the local in
dustries restricted employment to
Washington County workers until
that supply indicated signs of a
shortage, after which time Out-of-
State applicants were placed on
the payroll. In other words, the
major portion of all available la
Dor here has been first absorbed
by local industries. and the remain
ing fifty per cent to be added will
be the real "hOuse hunters"
If the situat4Jn becomes more
serious, hundreds of additional
rooms will be available, it is said
Furniture stores report a large
number of sales to persons prepar-
ing rooms for prospective out-of-
State defense workers, certain to
get employment here during the
summer. 1t is conservativelv esti-
mated that at least six thousand
additional men and women will be
employed here during 1912 and Of
this number at least seventy per
;ent will be women This number
will include requirements of men
low in defense industries to be-
;alled into army service.

HANGOVERS
By
LITTLE HEISkELL

SWedTS IndI on RECENT week
day, there were less automobiles
on one of the main streets in
Baltimore than here in Haqers-
town. Local papers carried
story of an Eastern Shore avia-
tor killed in action while flying
with the RAF, but they didn't
know that the hero's sister is a
FairchiId employee. - Citizens
of Chambersburg, I'm told, are
in a daze over the Governments
decision to locate an ammuni-
tion depot there; maybe they
can't imagine 10000 men getting
jobs in that community at wages
that would knock your eyes out.
Several managers of the U. S.
Employment Offices in the State
of Maryland report having diff
Guilty in getting requirements Of
men leaving the service for ma
tionaI defense jobs, which, me-
think is one for the "Strange AS
It Seems" feature. A coca-cola-
drinker tells me that this "coke"
shortage is driving him to drink.
1T is estimated that approx
mately fifty defense workers
either quit their jobs, move out
of town or get fired each week
in Hagerstown; the turnover is
considered low. A local boy
who joined the Navy and who
was "on deck" during the Pearl
Aarbor raid is visiting his folks
here. Prediction: Less than
100 men will be on the WPA
payroll this summer. - Follow
ing the recent rains which filled
up the excavation on South Po-
tomac street, where the trolley
tracks are being removed, a
sign was discovered on a guard
rail reading, "Sweeney Lake;
No Fishing Allowed" RepubIi-
cans accuse the Democrats; the

Church
Continue Work
In Japan, Philippines
House Of Bishops Elects
PreIote for Manila Area,
Nippon Representative
BY the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Feb. 5.-A
policy of/continuing church work in
the Philippines and in Japan despite
the war was adopted here today by
ssthe Episcopal Church through its
House Of Bishops.
The policy was determined when
the house, composed of nearly 100
bishops, decided it would elect q new
bishop Of the Philippines and desig-
nate another bishop to look after in
terests Of the Episcopal Church in
Japan.
The House elected the Right Rev.
Norman Binsted Of Manila, former
American bishop of one OF the
Episcopal Church's dioceses in
Japan, as bishop Of the Philippine
Islands. When last heard from, he
was carrying on his work in the
Manila area. He succeeds the late
Bishop G. F. Mosher.
The Rev. Everett Jones, rector of
st. Marks Church, San Antonio,
Tex, and member of the National
Council, was elected Bishop Of
Honolulu, succeeding Bishop Har-
rington Littell who resigned, and the
Rev. James Lindsay Patton of Berk-
ley, Calf, was named bishop of the
San Joaquin, Calf, missionary dis
trict, succeeding Bishop Louis San
ford, resigned.
Completing the election Of mis-
sionary bishops. the House elected
the Rev. William Lewis. rector of
st. Pauls, Burlington, VT, as bishop
Of Nevada: the Very Rev. Frank
Rhea, dean of st. Michael's Cathe-
dral at Boise. Idaho. as bishop of
Idaho; and the Rev. James Stoney
Of Grace Church. Admission, Ala,
bishop Of New Mexico. No change
was made in. the status of the Sa-
lima. Kans., district where Bishop
Shirley H. Nichols, formerly of
Japan, is acting by appointment.
The Right Rev. Charles S. Ref
snider, until last year president Of
St. Paul's University, Toxic, and
Bishop Of the Episcopal Diocese of
North Kwanto with headquarters in
Toxic, was designated to administer
the work with former missionaries
in Japan.
He also will represent the Amer
lean Episcopal Church In dealings
during the war with the now inde-
pendent japanese Episcopal Church.
Thus the House Of Bishops re-
fused to abandon connection with
Japanese Christians.
Adoption of a pastoral letter or
statement which is expected to deal
largely with the present world sit
uation also is on the program today.
In connection with, the statement,
Bishop Henry Wise Hobson Of Gin
cinnati, national chairman OF the
Fight for Freedom Committee, said:
1.-THE church, along with every in
dividual and group in our country.
faces testing period. We as bishops,
our clergy and our members cannot
escape this testing. We are going
to be subjected to relentless Judg-
ment, just as our Army and naval
commanders were In connection
with Pearl Harbor. This judgment Is
going to be based on one thing, and
one thing only: Our ability to pro-
duce results"

The place was doing q thriving
business and the clergyman was
shown the piles Of gold coins IN

chimes in operation. Then the
manager, Richard, donated $700
for the church.
