PRINCESS ANNE, Md, July 81
Charging an attack by Maryland
State officials on the free press, !.
Rives Matthews. lanky editor OF
the weekly Somerset News, said
today his paper has been excluded
from list of papers receiving
State legal advertising as revenge"
for his expose" of a trip in a
State-owned auto by State Con-
troller j. Millard Tawes to attend
his sons wedding In Georgia.
Mr.. Matthews said he was un-
aware his paper had been removed
from the list of papers receiving
State advertising until this week
when papers throughout the State
published the public general laws
of Maryland, which are printed
annually and bring in revenue of
several hundred dollars" =
Commenting that ''it looks like
Mr.. Tawes' trip to Georgia is going
to cost me lot of money" Mr..
Matthews said during the four
years he has edited the Somerset
News this is the first year he has
not published the general laws.
Retaliation Denied.
I'm my first year as editor, pub
lication of the laws amounted to
$780," he said. This year they
run nine columns of six-point type,
which would amount to about $180
for the first insertion, and they are
inserted as many as 13 times"

tors report of Mr. Tawes' trip to
Georgia, which resulted in a years
suspension of the Maryland officials

sonal car, had anything to Go with
Mr. Matthews failing to receive the
State legal advertisement, A. J..
Bourbon, executive secretary to Gov.
O'Conor. said approximately 40
papers in the State also did not
receive the advertising.
1--WE are not interested in penaliz-
ing Mr.. Matthews" Mr.. Bourbon
said. II have met him and have a
high regard for him. Since our
funds are limited, however, we can
not advertise in all State papers and
We pick the old established ones
which have the best advantage in
circulation"
Prepared "As Usual"
Mr.. Bourbon said according to
custom the list of papers to receive
State legal advertising is made up
in the Governors Office and is then
sent to the president of the Senate
and the speaker of the House of
Delegates, who have authority to
make changes if they seem neces-
cary.
Since both Of these officials had
resigned, the list this year was pre-
sented to the Legislative Council
and was passed on July u with no
changes, it was said.
Mr. Matthews said his paper Ger
tainly could be termed an old estab-
llshed one which served the best
interests of the people" He said the
paper was founded in 1926, and since
that time has carried State legal
advertising. He added that the
paper now has circulation of about
1900, and that 300 readers have
subscribed since his report of Con-
troller Tawes' trip.

Food Production This Year
Believed to Exceed 1925

Washington, Aug. 2-lNS-Goy-
eminent food experts today pre-
dicted that overall food production
this year would exceed the 1912
record output by four per cent but
a more gloomy outlook was fore
cast for the civilians dining table
In a midsummer review OF the
food situation. the War Food Ad-
ministration estimated that the per
capita civilian consumption would
drop about 81 per cent below last
year because military, lend-lease
and other war requirements are
about double those OF 1912.
approximately rs per cent OF the
total 1943 food production has been
allocated to civilians. about Is per
cent Of the armed services, 10 per
cent for lend-lease and two per
cent for shipment TO American ter
ritories and for reserves for war
relief needs.

pected to be about 10 per cent be-

perts disclosed that meat rations
cannot be increased even though
production may set a new record

must be cut 10 per cent. An equal
cut must be made in cheese produc-
ton so that more fresh milk and
butter may be sold.
The production of ice cream will
be reduced about 20 per cent be-
cause OF government restrictions on
the use OF milk solids. Butter pro
duction, however, is expected to be
about four per cent higher.
VIA said that because OF the
lower yields OF food crops 1t may be
necessary to reduce the number OF
some classes of live stock to con-
s'rye animal feed supplies.
The output OF beef and veal,
lamb and mutton is expected to be
somewhat smaller than in 1912, but
