Montgomery Group
Inspects Sanitary
Fills In New York

A group of Montgomery County
civic and business leaders have ten
tatively approved the principle of
using sanitary fills for disposing of
ash trash and garbage collections,
The group went to New York City
WITH members of the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission
where they were taken on an ex-
tensive tour of similar operations
of the Sanitation Commission of
New York City.
At the completion of the tour,
the members of the inspecting
party expressed themselves as in
dividually satisfied with the sani-
Ltary land fill method. BIZ are un,
willing to express Official approval
by their respective organizations.
The members of the party talked
to residents of the areas near which
land fills were being carried on, in
some instances within 25 feet of
the actual operation, and found the
residents did not complain.
Pictures of the area before the
treatment and at several stages
prior to completion were shown to
the group.
The sanitary land fill method of
refuse disposal consists of dump
ing a mixture of garbage, rubbish
and ashes, the materials usually
contained in municipal refuse, and
covering it promptly with earth
of a sandy texture to exclude
rodents and other vermin and to
prevent the escape of odors and
outbreak of fires.
The refuse is leveled and com
pacted with bulldozers and COW
cred daily with earth, the object
being to make a closed bell of
each days deposit. Provision is
made for applying disinfecting
chemicals in hot weather to con-
troll odors and keep down flies and
Objectionable insects. Water is
made available for fre-fighting
purposes before the refuse is COW
cred and for laying the dust.
An arear of three-fourths of an
acre to ~ will be required each
year for a population of 10000
where the refuse is placed in lay
ers having a computed depth of
6 feet.

Red Cross
Mobile Kitchen

Mrs. Russell Watkins, Mrs. Lloyd
Howes and Mrs. James H. Nolan
had a turn on the Red Cross Mobile
Kitchen Tuesday night visiting the
different outposts. Seventy-five
sandwiches had been prepared and
three gallons of coffee and could
have easily served five gallons of
coffee, but they managed to keep a
cup for the boys, whom they knew
at the Potomac school.
1t had been field ration day and
those boys devoured the sandwiches
and coffee. They not only had
seconds but thirds and were so de-
lighted when the Mobile Unit ar
rived that the guards passed them
through and called out "Red Cross
coming in" The boys hocked
around the kitchen and were sucn
nice lads that it made all very
proud TO know that they were a
part of our Army.
The Rockville Canteen workers
realizes the marvellous work of the
Red Cross Canteen because of the
boys right here in their own coun-
try were so delighted to see them.
Just imagine what it means to the
boys overseas.
Mrs. Benjamin Burroughs, sis
ter canteener, read letter to US
from her son, who has been
through the African campaign and
is now in Sicily, saying that the
Red Cross Mobile was a little bit
of heaven to the boys on the front
and if the people in this country
knew what the Red Cross meant to
the boys they would "give and

Local Judges
Issue Rules
On Procedure
Regulations Designed To
Give Courts Better Control
Protests Made

Lawyers from. Montgomery,
Frederick and Prince Georges
Counties met Wednesday evening
at the Indian Spring Country Club
for discussion of the recent rul-
ing restricting the practice before
the Circuit Court Of lawyers who
do not maintain offices in the coun-
ties and spend reasonable part of
their working time there.
The order, handed down by the
judges of the Frederick Montgom-
cry Circuit Court, was signed by
Judges Stedman Prescott, Charles
W. Woodward, Patrick Schnauffer
and Edward Delaplaine. Accord
ing to Judge Prescott, the ruling
has been under consideration for a
number of years, but is was only
during the last session of the Leg
islature that the judges were given
authority to formulate rules of
practice for the courts and eligibil-'
ity rules for attorneys.
The present ruling does not re-
quire that the lawyer be mem
Der of the Montgomery County
Bar, but does stipulate that he
must either maintain an office in
the county or employ associate
local counsel in lieu of an office.
Judge Prescott said the ruling was
designed to give the court jurisdic-
tion over lawyers who practice be-
fore it.
1t was pointed out that the rul-
ing will require lawyers outside
tie Circuit to meet the conditions
which local lawyers have DO meet
when appearing in the courts of
the District of Columbia.

Gasoline

Their need for its conservation.
If that assumption proves true
well and good. But if the mil
lions of extra miles driven I'M
necessarily consumes millions of
the reserve supply of gas then
we can only expect a further
curtailment. And when further
curtailment is ordered it will
probably be enforced to the let
ter. That will be the proper
way. Let US hope that officials
will have learned that Mr.. x
will be more content to have a
gallon or two of gasoline to use
as he pleases than to be denied
the use of his machine for spe-
cial purposes. The number Of
automobiles on the roads during
the past week definitely indi-
Gates that further restrictions
will probably be imposed.

to give every householder and
members Of his family an oppor-
tunity to share in raising the
100000 quota assigned to the
warden service. Judge Brault's
solicitors, however, will not under
take borrower the rural areas lying

1ENERAL MARSHALL is a
man who is not given to a
feat deal of speech-making nor
e many public statements. Yet
Ie is forceful and clear when he
1bes give public expression. His
export to Secretary of War

With no effort to predict the

he displays vi
General brant confidence
Marshall Of constant ag-
Speaks gression on the

IL Europe has been reduced to the
Intensive and the blockade is

Increasing, more rapidly with

can be but one result, and every
f6source we possess is being en-

No more potent expression
has emanated from the lips or
pen of any man in America
closely identified with the prose-

are none to challenge any state

would be pleasing to have Gen.
