DEMOCRATS AND
REPUBLICANS TO
PICK NOMINEES
Members OF Both Parties To Go
To The Polls Tuesday to Decide
On Candidates In The Gen
eral Election

Adherents of both the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties in
Garrett county as we'll as in the
other counties of the State, will
90 to the polls next Tuesday,
September 9Th, in the battle of
ballots, to decide their party's
choices for candidates for vari-
GUS county, judicial, State and
Federal offices.
The day will find only six
Democrats battling to represent
their party as candidates, and
four Of these seek the office of
the Governorship of the Free
State. The remaining two seek
the nomination to represent Gar
rett county in the Maryland
State Senate.
On the other hand thirty-two Re
publicans are out for places on the
November ballot in which only four
teen of the number can be successful.
There are twenty-five polling places
in Garrett county and they will be
open next Tuesday from 500 o'clock
A. NJ. until ZOO o'clock P. NJ, &C
cording to notice concerning the pri-
mary published by the Board of Su-
pervisors of Elections. Facsimiles of
both Democratic and Republican bal
lots are printed in this issue of The
Republican.
Republican contests are noted for
Governor, Congressional Representa-
tive, Associate Judge of the Fourth
Circuit, State Senator, members of
the House of Delegates, County Treas
urer, County Commissioners, Sheriff
and members of the Republican State
Central Committee.
There are no contests for Clerk of
the Circuit Court, Judges of the Or
phans' Court, Register of Wills, Sur
veyor or States Attorney.
Candidates will have an opportunity
for Eleventh hour" work and final
solicitation for votes on Labor Day,
just one day previous to the election,
as several picnics in various parts
Of the county will be in progress that
day.
Just how heavy the vote will be is,
Of course, not known, and can hardly
be estimated on account of the tire
situation, absence of many in the ser
vice of the armed forces and employ
ment in war industries, and the in
terest the people display in their priv
ilege to cast their ballots for their
preference.
Counting of votes will begin almost
Immediately after the polls close In
some Of the precincts election officials
may complete their work in short
time, but in others where the vote is
expected to be heavy the officials will
be employed until far into the night.
The official notice of Tuesdays pri-
mary is printed in another section of
today's Republican.

budget calling for expenditures
of Sl92.973, of which Sll8,671
will be collected through prop
erty taxation, has been approved
and passed for the l942-43 fiscal
year by the city commission of
East Detroit The budget was
passed by the commission Mon
day night after a public hearing
at which no opposition was of
fered.
The budget is an increase of
S3.955.70 over that of last year.
According to City Clerk Steven
Henderson, the increase amounts
to 80 cents per $1,000 on assess
ed valuation. Thus to the in
crease, it was pointed out that a
slightly larger budget was nee
/ eSSary because of the prevailing
wage scale and higher prices of
materials.
The city commission estimated
that the remaining S74,302 will
be raised through various rev.
enues accruing TO the city each
year. The largest sums will come
from licenses and permits, ap-
proximating $4,000, and sewer
tap fees, totalling S20,500.
The heaviest expenditures will
be in the Department of Public
Works, which is allotted $685.

Pupils Sought
as Farmers
Recruiting Plan
is Revealed

WASHINGTON, June 3-(P)
- Recommendations for re-
cruiting thousands of high
school youths to help relieve
farm labor shortage, including
a suggestion that this work ex-
perience might be credited to-
ward diploma requirements,
were sent by u. S. Education
Commissioner John w. Stude-
baker today to 10000 state and
city school officials.
Studebaker told the school
officials that if a farm army Of
boys and girls was to be mobil-
lied in sufficient numbers to
meet the demand youth must De
convinced that their services are
urgently needed in this phase
of the war effort.
They should be informed
about farm living conditions, the
kind and amount of work that
will be expected of them, the
compensation they will receive
in return, plus meals, laundry,
lodging and the like he said,
Student farmer programs are
being worked out locally In
some areas and Studebaker s
communication was designed
only TO guide local efforts.
Placement of pupils on farms
by the U. S. Employment
Service should be approved by
school authorities, he said,
since schools have both legal
and moral obligation for the
youth enrolled in them.
Farmers seeking in school
youth as helpers were asked to
| file applications with the U. S.
Employment Service in or near
their communities.
Sufficient inf o m t ] o n
should be filed to give both
youth and their parents a rath-
er definite picture of the farm
or and his farm-the environ
ment in which the youth will
work and live" the education
office said.
Studebaker emphasized that
arrangements must be made by
which young people may make
up scholastic work which they
miss while doing emergency
farm work.
