10000 Here Observe
| Am American Day.
Frankfurter Speaks

Some 10000 persons gathered yes
terday at the Monument Grounds
for the fourth annual observance OF
Il am an American Day" honorine
these native-born youths who have
reached the voting age and foreign
born who have been naturalized
during the past year.
Democracy Is always a "beckoning
goal, and never a "safe harbor,'
Supreme Court Justice Frankfurter
who was principal speaker at the
exercises, declared. Democracy
means hardship-the hardship OF
increasing responsibility of every
citizen"
Five Stages in Democracy.
There are five stages In the de-
velopment of the American democ-
racy, Justice Frankfurter continued.
First. was the founding for which
George Washington was indispen-
sable. Then. came the democratic
mission" of Thomas jefferson, who
fought for political freedom, free
dom from tyranny of the individual
and pursuit of truth.
The third stage, he explained,
came with the Civil War when
Abraham Lincoln understood that
q true democracy could not be half
free and half slave" In the last
war it was Woodrow Wilson who
sought to institute a League of Ma
tions, "but that was not enough"
Today, President Roosevelt is
fighting for the principal of lasting
peace which cannot be established
unless the world Is sincerely COM
mitted to the ideal of democracy"
he concluded.
Preceding his address, the as
sociate justice presented certificates
to nine men and women who be-
came naturalized citizens in the
Washington area during the past
year. Included in this group were
Mrs. Angelina Cieri, 7101 Georgia
avenue NV, from Italy, who has
four sons in the American armed
forces, and Pvt. Mok Kim from
China, now with the United States
Army stationed at Fort Myer.
Exercises Broadcast.
The exercises, which were broad
casted, began with a massing of the
colors by servicemen and women of
all branches of the armed forces.
The United States Navy Band
played salute to the services,
"Servicemen on Parade" which was
followed by the reading of II Am An
American" by Corpl. Marcus Austad,
former radio star.
In his initial greeting, Justice
James w. Morris of the United
States District Court here, who pre-
sided at the service, said, THE day
can mean much or little to us, ac-
cording to the thoughts and re-
f1ections, the feelings and emotions
the purposes and determinations 1t
inspires. 1t will be a shabby fall
ure If we look at ourselves and our
country with an attitude toward
other men of pharisaical superior
ity."
The audience participated in the
recitation OF the American Greed
and community singing, led by a
USO choral group. The Rev. Peter
Marshall, pastor of the New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church, gave
the invocation.

Twelve Steps Into
State Socialism

Malcolm McDermOtt, professor of law at Duke Univer-
sy and Democratic eectOr in 1927 after visiting Ger
many during the period of Htlers ascension into power
listed twelve steps into state socialism, They are

ness and their inability to solve their own problems.
Z The principle of local self government be
out.
B The centralized government, while appearing in form
to represent the people, duuy register the will of
the leader group in control.
A. Constitutional guarantees must be swept aside This
Is accomplished in part by dcung them outmoded and
as distractions to progress, Horse and buggy days..
D. Public faith in the legal profession and the courts
must be undermined. Court packng).
g. The aW-making body must be inundated from time
to time and rebuked to prevent the development of
public confidence therein Cor eleven Congress has
been rubber stamp of the Executive DEPARTMENT.
L. Economically, the people must be ground down by
high taxes under preteXt another In this way c
zens forced to rely and upon the govern

the control of the government

g. general distrust of private business and industry

toward them who might be in the
woods-but Friend was wary and the
ruse failed.
With difficulty and several narrow
escapes, Friend and his companion
finally reached Fort Cumberland in
safety. The names of the Negro and
of Friends comrade have not come
down in our time. From the earliest
settlement of these parts this emf
nencc has been spoken of as Negro
mountain in tribute to the brave col
ored man who fell and was buried at
its top.
Andrew Friend and his brother,
Augustine, both became settlers in
the Turkcyfoot region of Somerset
county, Pa, in a very early day and
their names appear in the earliest
assessment lists. Some years later
Augustine Friend located in what is
now Garrett county, Md, where many
descendants are still found.
The exact time of Andrew Friends
death is not known but it is on record
that he sold his land to David Ankeny
in l793 and is supposed to have died
prior to 1875, While his grave cannot
be located it was known his body was
inferred in the old burial ground on
the west side of the Casselman river,
near the south of the approach or
abutmcnt of the county bridge at the
village of Harncdsvillc.
Very many of the old Iurkeyfoot
families, such as the Mountains,
Tanncbills, Hyatts, Oggs, Abrahams,
Jennings, Brookcs, Reams, Tissues,
Hincbaughs, Colburns, Moons, and
others are numbered among his rel
atives.

CARL'S SCRAPBOOK
Local Mountain Names
Story of Negro Mountain Agree
Versions BY Historians

Some old names nereabout have
no appeal to the modernistic, so much
so that local group several years
back went on record favoring lcgis-
lation changing the names of mount
aims bisectcd by the National High
way The scheme failed of fruition
for lack of encouragement because of
its impracticability
Sidcling Hill mountain is located
in both West Virginia and Pennsyl-
vania. These states would doubtless
have opposed the plan for the mount
ain would have new name for the
part in Maryland, while the old name
would be retained by the adjoining
states. What a nightmare this would
all have been for mapmakers!
Anyway the name, "Sidcling Hill"
has been secure in history and
romance for going on two centuries.
! have poem, "Sidcling Hill"
written by country school teacher
over 100 years ago. Scrapbook does
not invite poetry, but poems of local
import that have lived out the years
may now and then be reproduced and
"Sidclng Hill' would be one.
Then moving westward comes Town
Hill, Green Ridge, Polish Mountain
and Martins Mountain before Cumb-
erland is reached Some of these
names do not suit the advanccd-idea
fellow with supposed patriotic urge
who wants names of renowned Mary
landcrs substituted. OF all the targets
for change, Negro mountain would
be the chief and today our piece is
as to how Negro mountain, which
also extends into Pennsylvania, got
its name. There have been conflicting
stories and Scrapbook calls on Mes
bach Browning, author of Forty
four Years of the Life of a Hunter"
and William H. Wclfcy, Salisbury,
Pa, author of historical works
published in 1906, to give their YER
sions.
