STATE ADVANCES $4,000 TO
HOUSE MIGRANT WORKERS

Following a request from farm
leaders, who are vastly disturbed at
the shortage of labor available for
harvesting and canning the States
produce, Governor O'Conor announ-
ced that the Board of Public Works
had made available fund of $10,-
900 for housing accommodations for
workers recruited for farm labor and
canneries operated throughout the
State. Supervision of the fund will be
under the Maryland Council of De-
Tense, Governor O'Conor ma e
known.
Discussions and conferences with
farm and manpower officials during
recent days, Governor O'Conor made
known, indicate that approximately
$4,000 additional laborers are need
ed to harvest crops and work in the
canneries, a good proportion of which
workers are expected to come from
outside the State. Last year, it was
pointed out to Governor O'Conor,
many workers by-passed Maryland
because of housing.

CORRECT USE OF THE TRADE
MARK "VASELINE'

About 1872 the word 'VASELINE'
was coined by Robert A. Chesebrough
and during the seventy years since
that date he and the Chesebrough
Manufacturing Company, Cons d.,
which he founded, have made unin-
terrupted and exclusive use of VAS
ELINE' as the trademark Identify
ing products of their manufacture.
These products are of many kinds.
The trademark VASELINE identifies
each and all of them. For correct
usage, therefore, the word should al
ways be used as a trademark or
brand Identifying products manufac-
tured by the Chesebrough Manufac-
turing Company, Cons'd, of New
York, and, as indicated in the ex-
amples below, it should never be
used alone to designate a specific
Chesebrough roduct.
For example with refernce to our
best known product, namely petro-
leum jelly
1t is correct to say 1--WE use Vase
line Petroleum Jelly for cuts, burns
and bruises
1t is incorrect to say I'VE use
'Vaseline' for cuts, burns n d
bruises"
1t is correct to say please give
me a jar of 'Vaseline' Petroleum
Jelly"
1t is incorrect to say please give
me a jar of 'Vaseline'"
IMPORTANT: The trademark
VASELINE is registered in the Uni
ted State Patent Office and in all of
the states of the United States per-
hitting trademark registration, and
also in most of the principal coun-
tries of the world.
The trademark VASELINE may
ONLY be used to refer to a product
of the Chesebrough Manufacturing
Company, Cons'd. The right of the
company to the exclusive use of the
mark is protected by the law govern
ing trademarks and unfair compe-
tition, and such right has been re-
peatedly upheld by the courts.

SPECIAL GASOLINE RATIONS
FOR SPARE-TIME FARM LABOR

Office workers business men
housewives and others who volunteer
for spare-time labor on farms and
in food processing plants this sum-
mer may receive special gasoline ra-
lions to take them to and from the
places where their labor is needed,
the OPA announces. Gasoline for
this purpose will be made available
in areas where shortage of labor has
made it necessary for the Govern
ment to sponsor an organized plan to
supply agricultural and food process
ing establishments with labor to har-
vest or process seasonal crops.
To receive such ration, applicants
must be certified by the County Agri-
cultural Agent of the Department of
Agriculture, or his farm-labor assis-
tant The certification must state
that the work is essential and that
the applicant and the persons who
are to ride with him are capable of
doing the particular job, as we'll as
the amount of mileage required.
The applicant must also arrange
to carry at least four persons, in
Guiding the driver Cor as many as
his car will hold, if it is less than
four), and must show that there is
no adequate alternative means of
transportation.

O'CONOR WARNS GOVERNORS
TURNING POINT LOOMS In
FEDERAL-STATE FIELD

Warning the Governors of the 48
States, nearly all of whom were pre-
sent at the State Dinner of the 36th
Annual Governors Conference at
Hershey, Pa, on May 20, that cur
rent proposals to add subsidy to
the unemployment benefits to be paid
by the States during the reconversion
period would amount to federaliza-
ton of funds, Governor Herbert r.
O'Conor declared that ''if effected,
the proposed radical changes in this
field would mark a. turning point in
Federal-State relationships"
Appearing before the largest gath
ering of Governors in the history of
the Conference, Governor O'Conor
shared the spotlight at the State Dim
ner with Governor Thomas e. Dewey,
of New York, who spoke on Organ
izing the States for the Future. +"
Governor O'Conor's topic was 80
cial Security in the Postwar Per-
iod."

AAA SEEKS MORE GASOLINE
FOR A AND b CARD DRIVERS

The American Automobile Assocla-
ton on Monday sought more motor
fuel for "a" card holders and an
equalization of "B" card rations
throughout the country.
Thomas P Henry, of Detroit, AAA
president, made the demand on the
contention that there is surplus of
gasoline for retailers.
His fve-point program proposal
was outlined to the Office of Defense
Transportation the Office of Price
Administration, and the Petroleum
Administration for War.
Henry said the program would adj
just gasoline ration ''inequities" and
declared the present surplus is
going to the black market
The AAA recommendations are:
/. To increase ga" card rations
because the present two gallons are
not enough to keep cars in running
condition.
2. To raise the 325 miles-per-
month "B" ceiling in the East and
and the 4OO-mile ceiling in the Far
West to the 475-miles level in effect
elsewhere.
8. Allow "B" drivers more gaso-
line if their cars get less than Is
miles err gallon.
A. Make more gasoline available
for light delivery trpucks.
5.Increase the five-gallon furlough
ration for service men and women.

COUNTY'S FARMERS CAN
REDUCE COSTS WITH AWAY
,JEEPS

Farmers of Cecil County, many of
whom have indicated through ma
tional survey their desire to own a
Jeep after the war, can save approx
mately $S22,204 for postwar re-
Mobilization if they take advantage
of the scout cars four-sided person
ality, recent study reveals.
This figure is based on the differ
ence between the estimated price of
a postwar Jeep and the total cost
of the four farm units, which, ac-
cording to extensive research and ex-
perimentation, it can replace.
Recent tests by accredited farm ex-
perts, including officials of the De-
partment of Agriculture, reveal that
the Jeep has "a great deal of farm
blood in it's mechanical VEINS" ac-
cording to Ward NJ Canaday, presi-
dent of Willys-Overland Motors, who
said his company's engineers have
proven ION the soil'' that the hcout
car can be used as an effective four
purpose substitute for the horse, the
tractor, the independent power unit
and the light truck.
In the Department of Agriculture
report on it's recent experiments
with the vehicle, issued by R. B.
Gray, head of the Farm Equipment
and Research Division, the Jeep was
described as highly useful in plow-
ing, narrowing and other field work. ="

Removal of canned carrots, orange
juice. grapefruit juice and blended
orange and grapefruit juice from the

GASOLINE BLACK MARKET

The Petroleum Industry Commit

meeting in New York set in motion
an intensive program to cooperate
with the Government in stamping
out the Black Market operations
which have been stealing more than

Mr.. Clarke A. Bedford, Chairman
