FARMERS URGED TO
CONSERVE FEED

The Government has use for
bags and has confiscated bags
from feed manufacturers and Is
taking over practically all of the
jute coming into the country, ac-
cording to DR.. *. l.. Turk, head of
the dairy department at the Uni
versity of Maryland. Because of
these conditions, he says, the bag
situation is really critical and
both cotton and paper are practical
ly out Of the question as far as
feed is concerned.
1t may be necessary for dairy
farmers TO buy their feed III bulk
and furnish their own bags, DR..
Turk states. He advises every
farmer to check over his bags very
carefully and get them in good con-
dition. After he has enough bags
for his own use and storage facili-
ties, he is advised TO turn back into
the market all the bags he pos
Sibly can.
There are probably enough bags
in existence to handle the feed
trade, DR.. Turk says, if every far
mer will do his part. A bag should
make several trips from the feed
manufacturer to the farmer. Some
Of the large feed companies are
able to get as high as an 80 per
cent return on their bags which
shows what can be done.

$12,689,932 PAID
TO MARYLANDERS
BY SOCIAL SECURITY

A statement issued by G. r.
Parker, Regional Director of the
Social Security Board. shows that
the sum OF S12,689,932 was receiy-
ed by residents of Maryland during
1941, through the unemployment
compensation, old-age and suryiv-
Jrs insurance, and public assist
dnce provisions Of the Social Sc
curity Act. OF this amount $4,-
SSS,20O was paid by the State TO
persons who were temporarily un-
employed and who were entitled 10
job insurance. Checks tOtaiing
$1,344 900 were sent by the Fed
eral Government to individuals
qualified under old-age and suryiv-
ors. insurance, while the sum OF
$6,457,732 representing payments
to the needy aged, the needy blind,
and dependent children was prCvid-
ed by the State and Federal gov
ernments, under public assistance
laws
Mr.. Parker called attention to
the fact that claims for unemploy-
ment. compensation increased dur
ing the latter part of the year, de-
spite the demand in war industries
for skilled and semi-skilled work
ers. This, he said, was due largely
to the closing Of plants or to lay
offs caused by the shortage Of wal
production materials.
A total of 72,101 persons were
placed in jobs during 1941 through
the medium of the Is employment
services offices in Maryland. These
Offices register the unemployed fol-
new jobs and at the same time ac
cept claims for unemployment
compensation.
Old-age and survivors insurance
Mr.. Parker explained, includes five
different types of monthly benefits
At the present time, $65,229 is be
ing paid monthly to insured work

McLach|en |ndorses
Plan for Smaller
D. T.. Committee
Trade Boord President
Says Move Will Create
Greater Efficiency

Lanier P. McLachlen, president of
the Board of Trade, today indorsed
the proposed reorganization of the
House District Committee, which
would cut it's membership from 81
to IS or l3 members.
In statement, Mr.. McLachlen
commended Chairman Randolph of
the committee and Representative
Dirksen of Illinois, ranking Repub-
lican member, authors of the pro-
posal. for their intelligent appraisal
of the needs of the District in war
time"
IF their recommendations are
adopted by the Democratic and Re-
publican parties Mr.. McLachlen
said, "a permanent solution may
have been found for the heard
complaint that District matters are
not considered seriously enough nor
given the proper attention by Con-
greSS as whole.
This is undoubtedly one OF the
finest steps that could be taken in
the interests of the citizens of the
District Of Columbia
The Board of Trade, Mr.. McLach-
len said, will welcome the new plan.
! The reduction of the size of the
committee to IS or 13 members" he
said, obviously will make for more
efficiency by placing greater en-
phasis on the necessity for attend
ance at committee meetings and
hearings. The giving of a parliament
tary right of way for District legls-
lation without waiting for the semi
monthly District days will surely
permit earlier and more timely con-
sideration of pending legislation"

War Housing
Prohibited in
Resident Areas
Approval for ADA
Units on Fort Drive
Is Withdrawn

Erection Of temporary housing
units in restricted residential areas
where they would depreciate the
value of real estate" has been
stopped, Chairman Randolph of the
House District Committee said today.
The National Capital Park and
Planning Commission has rescinded
Its approval, previously granted to
the Alley Dwelling Authority, for
erection Of A temporary housing
units along the Fort drive" Mr..
Randolph said.
Clash With Development.
Thomas S. Settle, secretary of the
commission. advised Chairman Ran
dolph this action was taken because
the commission felt that these
units, while designed to be tempo
rary, would be so substantial in
many respects that it might be very
dlfhcult to secure their removal
when 1t was necessary to proceed
with the development of the Fort
drive"
1t had been planned to erect a
total of 1913 housing units along Fort
orlVe. The commission decided it
would be mistake to construct any
demountable units of the type pro-
posed on the sites located between
Georgia and New Hampshire ave-
nues because the proposed units are
not in harmony with the general
restricted development in that area.
The commission expressed to Mr..
Randolph its appreciation of his
services in securing enactment of
20 laws and Is appropriations vital
ly affecting the plan of Washing
tom and, therefore, the work of the
commission. All these measures
had either been drafted or indorsed
by the commission.
Citizens Voice Protest.
Mr.. Randolph had forwarded to
the commission protest against
the erection of those temporary
housing projects made by the Manor
Park Citizens A.,socia ton and ask
ing that careful consideration be
given to any plan which would lower
real estate values in the District"
Certainly it would SEEM" he
pointed out. that there is ample
