Home Gamers Must
Make Application
For Sugar Certificates

Persons desiring sugar rationing
certificates for home canning must
file their applications at the office Of
the Garrett County Rationing board,
above Gonder's pharmacy, Second
street, it was stressed today.
Under new regulations. home can
ners may obtain one pound Of sugar
for every four quarts of finished can
ned fruit, and an additional pound of
sugar for each member of the family
unit for the packing of preserves,
jams, jellies and fruit buffers during
the spring canning season until July l..
The applicant must bring with him
the war ration books of the entire
family unit and must be prepared to
tell how many quarts of certain
fruit were canned the previous year,
and how many quarts remain on the
shelves. 1t is necessary to get the
serial numbers of the ration books as
issued.
According to those in charge of the
ration office, it is not now possible
to get sugar for canning cherries,
peaches. or the like. Strawberries and
rhubarb are about the only fruits to
can at this time. Applicants will have
to make another application when
cherries are ripe, and another when
peaches are ripe, etc.
The ration board will issue a sugar
purchase certificate to the applicant
which will indicate the amount of SUI
gar he is entitled to purchase and the
storekeepers may redeem these certi-
ficates the same as war ration stamps.

Want McHenry School
Fund Used to Help
Build North Glade
Solons Recommend Transfer of
$4,000, AS McHenry No
Longer Intends to
Erect School

County Representatives in the State
Legislature have written to the Coun-
ty Commissioners recommending that
the money appropriated for the con-
struction of school at McHenry be
transferred to the fund for the con-
struction of the North Glade school,
inasmuch as it was definitely certain
that McHcnry no longer determined
to obtain a new tWo-room building
The letter was presented by a dele
cation before the Commissioners on
Monday evening, and was signed by
Senator Clifford Friend and Nelson
Brenneman. one of the delegates. The
Commissioners were told that NJ. l..
Groves would sign the letter too as
soon as he could get to Oakland.
A law was passed at the 1899 lcgis-
laturc ordering the County Commits
sioncrs to levy in 1912 the sum of
$4,000 for a two-room school build
ing at North Glade, and $4,000 for
two-room school building at McHenry.
The school at McHcnry was recent
ly closed on account of the small
number attending, and the pupils are
being transported to Accident
The Commissioners said that the
lowest bid for the construction of the
North Glade school, plans and spcci-
fications for which were completed
sometime ago, was in the ncighbor-
hood of $4,000. They said it would be
possible to transfer the funds to the
North Glade school by resolution,
which would give a total of $4,000
available for that building. There is
no doubt about North Glade needing
now school building and needing it
badly" said Paul NJ. Friend, one of
the Commissioners.
No action on the matter was taken
at the meeting this week

Oiling of County
Roads to Be Restricted

That the oiling of Garrett county
roads would be seriously curtailcd this
summer was indicated when the Coun-
ty Commissioners received favor
able report on only one out of nine
roads which they had recommended as
needing rcsurfacing to preserve the
base.
The road which received favor
able report was the Bloomington Hill
road.
Paul NJ Friend and, Chcston H..
Browning, Commissioners, returned to
Oakland Saturday night after spend
ing some time in Baltimore and
Washington with State Roads and
Federal highway officials
The Commissioners also made appli-
cation for 10000 gallons of material
for spot patching, but whether or not
this would be forthcoming, was not
known. The oil used in rcsurfacing is
needed in the war effort.
Decree Is Signed
The Commissioners said that Judge
Sloan had signed the decree which
made his opinion binding in regard TO
construction Of county roads in Gar
rott county, and the Interpretation of
the regulation requiring advertising
for bids on all items amounting to
more than 500. Both opinions were
in favor OF the County Commissions
ers.

ESQ Marketers Hear
Of Synthetic Rubber
At Dinner Meeting
Dealers Hear F. R. Washington
Give Insight Into Tire, Gas
And Rubber Situation

An insight into the various ways in
which the Standard Oil Company and
other petroleum organizations were
helping in the war effort, a discus
sion of the reasons for the gasoline
and tire situation, and the possibilities
of synthetic rubber in supplying the
needs of the civilian population were
brought out by F. Ryland Washing
ton, of Washington, D. c., in an adj
dress to around sevcnty-five Standard
dealers, their wives and employees, at
the William-James hotel on Tuesday
evening.
All were guests Of the company at
chicken dinner, served at 7 o'clock,
and this is Just one of a series of
dinners being held throughout the en-
tire territory for the company's deal
ers. Harry Weigand, Elkins, w. Va,
district salesman, presided as toast
master, and Ralph R. Mccoy, Hagers-
town, district manager, presented Mr..
Washington, who has made special
study of the synthetic rubber program
which has been conducted by the COM
pany for several years.
Other Standard officials there were
/. Robert Stanton, local sales agent, and
NJ. L. Willard, of Hagerstown, who
will take Mr.. Stanton's place here this
month. Mr.. Stanton is volunteer in
the seIectees who are to be indicted
June 49,
Mr. Washington, in pointing out
that the gasoline shortage along the
seaboard was real, stated that ordi-
narily that area used 10000 bar
rels daily, and that since the tankers
could not be used along the Atlantic
coast, that methods of transportation
now being used were only supplying
100000 barrels daily
In regard to the rubber situation he
gave figures to show that United
States had used normally 81 600 tons
of rubber, almost two-thirds of the
worlds supply, and most of which
came from countries now controlled
by Japan.
His studies in the synthetic rubber
industry led Mr.. Washington to be-
licvc that it would take until 1915 to
make 100000 tons of synthetic rub
Der, which still didn't leave much for
civilian use with the rapidly expand
ing mechanical forces of the army.
He defended the position Of the
company in regard to charges being
made by some agencies of the federal
government that the company did not
reveal vital information on the syn
thetic rubber program.
Mr. Washington had letters from
army officials to prove that his con-
Germ did urge the government to get
behind the synthetic rubber program
several years before they acted He
also pointed out other ways in which
the company was aiding materially in
the war effort, such as providing 100
octanc gasoline that would enable Z.
S. planes to fly higher and faster, and
pCrfecting an oil that would be disable
in planes regardless Of the tcmpcra-
ture of the atmosphere. He also told
Of the synthetic product for INT,
used in making bombs and other cX-
plosives, developed by his company
