EASTER is OUR DAY OF THE
RESURRECTED LIFE

Easter is the spiritual New Years
day. With the drab December days
the old year of the calendar comes
other circle of months begins.
Though we christen it the New Year
ana celebrate it's birth with the ring
ing of bells, outwardly there is no
change apparent and inwardly there
is only the hope that change for the
better and brighter may soon come.
But with Easter day comes real
sacramental TRANSPORTATION of ma
ture and of human hopes-the "out-
ward signs" and the inward grace"
eonjoin-the yearnings of tie spirit
are answered from the earth and
from the skies. The dead things have
come to life. Beauty and splendor are
returning to 'soothe and heal and
bless" Now the real New Year is
beginning and it's heralds are abroad
everywhere in the land. With flow
ers, with music, with prayer and
thanksgiving, with hopes renewed,
We welcome it's dawning 1t is TIE
day of resurrection.
Religion and nature both meet
today in the miracles of rebirth The
hopes of immortality and redemption
symDolized by the Risen One centur-
les ago are given solemn pledge and
From that ancient tomb we
hear re-echoed that heartening ques-
tion, why weepest thou?" From the
sod, the trees, the shrubs and the
flowers comes again the visible as
surance tEat they were not dead but
sleeping. To these symbols, spiritual
and natural the human heart must
needs respond, and does respond,
whatever it's cares or sorrows, it's
faiths or it's buried hopes.
Easter is our day of resurrected life
and resurrected hopes, and to such
rebirths all things are possible.
Greet the New Easter year with
cheer and song. Release the new
born hopes and faiths to grow and
expand with awakening ntaure and
the resurrected spirit.

PEACE-MAKING AND PEACE
KEEPING

Washington ID. c., March 26-
There is sort of co-partnership Of
constructive thinking between for
mer Governor Stassen of Minnesota
and Senator Vandenburg of Michi-
gan. Tie latter has stressed the Diff
ferences between "peace-maki II g
and peace-keeping. All United
States delegates to the forthcoming
San Francisco gathering appear con-
fident that the Conference will frame
a chart for making and enforcing the
peace.
Up to the present time eight Am
erican delegates have been named
and they are holding preliminary
discussions in meetings with Secre-
tary of State Stettinius and President
Roosevelt The delegates are deeply
concerned over the mechanics of the
Conference operations.
The Dumbarton Oaks Conference
is regarded as successful in creating
international agreements. Even so,
there seem to be almost daily inter
ruptions and changes in. war plans
among the United Nations. The
course of true love never did run
smooth and there Is nothing to indi-
cate any exception to that rule since
the Yalta Conference. However,
there is one main definite objective
and that is permanent peace. The
end of wars should be just as much
an objective of Russia as of the Uni
ted States or Great Britain. But
there is plenty Of nonsense in the
idea that the World will be any safer
for Democracy after World War II
than it was after World War |. If
there is any so-called existing ele-
ment of Democracy anywhere i'll the
World outside of the Western Hem
isphere it is quite impossible to To-
cate it-and if found, there sits at
the head of the table king or queen
and the recognized royal partners of
those countries.
Anyhow, the United States is de-
termined to put over lasting peace
this time.

In commenting on the current
meat shortage, Mr.. Leo H. McCor.
mick, State Director of the OPA
stated that the picture looks ex,
temely gloomy and shows little
chnace for improvement before next
fall, with a greater curtailment OF
civilian supplies to be expected be-
tween now and then.
1.-THE War Food Administration
which agency has charge of supplies
and distribution of foods and tells
LIS what to ration, and what not to
ration, has advised us that we may
expect approximately 1870 de-
crease in meat supplies during the
second quarter of 1945 over the first
quarter Of the year." he said. II am
not an alarmist, but this situation
combined with a heavy decline in
livestock production, with govern
ment requirements increasing, and
with a heavier set-aside order means
that we will for the first time since
the war, feel the true pinch" OF
meat scarciies."

THE DRIVE FOR USED CLOTHING

The United National Clothing Col
lection, announced for the month OF
April, marks departure from the
now familiar wartime appeals.
THUS far, in the grim business of
checking the aggressor nations; OF
driving them from stolen soil, and
pressing on to their unconditional
surrender, real sacrifice has been the
order both abroad and at home.
With the sacrifices made by our
fighting men we are all poignantly
familiar. Each week the casualty
lists have revealed mounting mon
ument to their courage, their gal
lantry, their readiness to give all.
Our sacrifices at home have not
been of this supreme and priceless
category. Yet, sacrifices we have
made and are making-the sacrifice
of our dollars, of many living COM
forts, of most of our peacetime plea
sures, of our time, our thoughts, our
energies and of many other things,
as we have made our armies and
navy the best equipped in the world,
as we have worked for and contribu-
ted to the Red Cross, the National
War Fund, and other organizations
committed to their welfare.
But, in April, we can help nightly
toward achieving the full fruits of
impending victory without yielding
up single item used by or useful to
us.
We can-we sLould-do this by
giving to the United National Cloth
ing Collection, our unneeded, out
grown, outmoded, forgotten clothing,
shoes and bedding.
How can our no-longer-used but
still serviceable apparel accomplish
this?
BY helping to clothe the millions
of destitute men, women and child
rem in the war-devastated lands of
Europe, Asia and the Pacific on
whom we must count to build and
maintain the peace that is to come.
In Europe alone, 3O,00O,0OO are
''statistically naked" and three times
that number, additionally, are i'll dire
need of serviceable clothes of any
mode to cover and comfort their war
emaciated bodies. Many Lave died,
many are now sick and dying, for the
want of your discarded suit, dress,
coat, shoes or underwear
The April campaign of the United
National Clothing Collection pro-
vides you an opportunity to perform
a lief-saving, peace-assuring service
without the slightest sacrifice.

THEY CAN WEAR?

FARM FUNDS In BUDGET SET

Inclusion by Governor Herbert X.
get of funds totaling $52,50O for
three new agricultural and post cor
troll ventures, together with TIE allo
cation of $35, 200 in the Bond Issue,
Bill for new poultry pathology lab
oi atory on the Eastern Shore, raise
to an all-time record high the t'tal
amounts allocated to the University
Of Maryland for agricultural and
IKE stock research and pest control.
The twoyear appropriations r. spc-
cific farm purposes total $1,2S1,54S.
These new ALLEGATIONS, approved
by Governor O'Conor following Il
conference with Officials of the Mary
land Farm Bureau, the Maryland
State Grange and representatives Of
the fruit growing industry, will
cover:
/. Control of the coddling lnoih,

2. Control of the European corn

and Baltimore Counties duirns the
past year and is declared to be SER
ious menace to the States canning
industry;
3. The initiation of an art,flclaI in
semination program to aid in i'm
proving the breeding and production
of dairy cows.
The new poultry pathology labora-
tory, which will be located near Sal
isbury, will serve the Maryland broil-
er industry, which is concentrated on
the Eastern Shore and today out
ranks all otker agricultural indus
tries in the State, Governor O'Conor
pointed out. Maryland production for
1943 in this field totaled 67,200,00O
pounds, with gross income to the
industry of nearly $20,0OO,0OO.
With plans for five new large
dressing plants to be established on
the Eastern Shore of Maryland dur
ing the next few months, Governor
O'Conor said, there is an obvious
need for protection and service to
this industry by poultry pataologisis
and laboratory technicians with nee
essary equipment.
In Governor O'Conor's biennial
budget, presented to the members of
the General Assembly some weeks
ago, provision was made for the
most exhaustive agricultural and
otker allied services. The sum- of
S232,340 was allotted to the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, for re-
search, seed inspection, dairy inspec-
ton, cantaloupe research and can
ming Industry research.
An additional $5O8,0OO was allo-
Gated to the Extension Service for
such vitality necessary projects as in
sect control, cantaloupe inspection,
control of the Japanese beetle, and
OF strawberry, tobacco and bees dis
eases; enforcement of the fresh egg
law, seed certification, soil conser-
vation, and drainage and quick soil
testing.
A third allotment of funds totaling
$454,000 was made to the Livestock
Sanitary Service and Department of
Veterinary Science for animal and
poultry disease control and indemni-
ties.

Legislatures in fifteen states are
debating a perennial problem again
this year, but with a difference.
The injustice of the myriads of
taxes, regulations and petty restric-
tions on the sale of oleomargarine
las irked millions of straight-think-
ing Americans for years. The some-
1945 is the righteous indignation of
millions of fats-hungry individuals
who suddenly have nothing to spread
on their bread and want to know
why. Diners-out left to shift with
cottage cheese or jelly as spread are
especially vocal.
Typical of the annoyingly petty
state restrictions-topping heavy
Federal taxes and license fees-are
the laws requiring restaurants to
post conspicuous signs when margar-
inc is served. In Massachusetts,, a
sign isn't enough; the restaurateur
must warn each patron personally
that his spread is margarine. In
Missouri and Arkansas the plates
must be labelled "oleomargairne. =
When restaurant owner stirs in the
color wafer to serve yellow margar-
inc, he becomes in the eyes of the
law a manufacturer of the product,
and must pay the $500 year Fed
eral manufacturers license fee. But,
the list is almost endless with state
after state imposing it's particular
local brand of reperssive measure.
Yet officials of The Best Foods.
Inc, pointed out modern margarine
is wholesome. nutritious proudct of
American farms and carries the en-
dorsement of the American Medical
Association and leading authorities
in the field of nutrition.
All of which seems to leave the
matter up to the legislators. While
it is too early to predict and perhaps
too much to hope for, any widespread
movement to repeal these bewilder-
ing networks of archaic laws, at
lass the legislators have an interest
