Renters Have 3 Months
After Homes Are Sold

Persons renting homes have at
least three months as a general rule
between the time that the house is
sold and the start of legal action to
evict them, James w. Woogerd
area rent director for Montgomery
and Prince Georges Counties, an
nounced today.
Mr.. Woogerd explained that al
though this is covered under Office
|of Price Administration rent regu-
lations, scores of tenants in nearby
Maryland are being pressed" to
move Immediately after the homes
in which they live are sold.
One of the exceptions to the rule
the rent director explained, is when
equivalent accommoda odations can be
found into which the tenants can
move without undue hardship OF
loss. Since the housing situation in
the Washington area is tight" how
ever, Mr.. Woogerd asserted, this
exception is rarely made.

There's nothing those boys want

In your opinion, when will this war
be over and when will we get back
to the States?'"
The division was sent overseas in
the fall of 1912 and spent 20 months
in England before joining in the in

seen some of the toughest fighting
OF any unit in the European area,
Mr.. Bond said.
In view of their record and the
fact that they were among the first
to arrive overseas, the boys expect
they'll be among the first to come
home when the war is over" he
said. "But they all want to finish
the job first"

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Mar. 16.-Twc
bills embodying a $12, $50, 900 State
postwar construction program arr
expected to be introduced soon ir
the General Assembly.
In outlining the program, Gov
O'Conor said that of the total, a..
825 900 would be raised from a new
bond issue, s6,000,000 from surplus
and $1.725,0o0 from unspent past
appropriations for postwar con-
struction. -.-.'
One Of the bills would set forth
the list of projects constituting the
States long-term construction pro-
gram" and providing for that part OF
the financing to come from surplus
funds.
The other would authorize the
bond issue required after available
Treasury funds were exhausted.
Program an Innovation.
The Governor said the two-bill
program was an innovation" ir
that in the past "one bond issue bill
provided for the issue and designat-
ed the definite amounts for the vari-
GUS projects"
Among projects approved for the
program, contained in the first bill
he listed three chronic disease hos
pitals, a new Cheltenham School for
Boys, the mental disease hospital
program, training school program
penal institutions, University OF
Maryland program, development OF
teachers colleges, tuberculosis sana-
toria, Bay Front Park and Recrea-
tional Area, Morgan State College
Construction, State police head
quarters, a new Department OF
Health building, and a new COM
missioner of motor vehicles head
quarters.
Bond Sales Later.
The Governor said that under
the plan the Board of Public Works
first would use the State surplus
and available postwar funds on the
construction program before selling
any new bonds.
Thus" he said, interest and
carrying charges on any new issue
will be avoided.
Any proposal for acquisition or
construction of State Office build
ing in Baltimore would be handled
separately and not as part of the
States construction program" s
The Governor did not present any
detailed breakdown of the amounts
OF money to be expended on the
various projects.

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. Reinsurance
company representatives yesterday
spoke out against Maryland As

pital services under the Blue Cross
plan to include medical and dental
care, the first concerted opposition
raised so far.
William Washburn, representing

companies writing health, accident
and other policies similar to those
which would be allowed the Blue
Cross under the proposed bill were
opposed to extending these privi-
leges unless they were accompanied
by regular insurance department
regulation and taxation.

full soldiers the old fort ever has
known.
Unlike the other soldiers who have
been stationed there through the
years, prepared or preparing to fight
the present group has finished their
fighting. All are disabled veterans
of the Spanish-American War, the
World War and present war. Hav-
ing done their part. they will live
now in the boundaries of the old
fort, which, like them, is no longer
called upon to defend its country
Today is the official opening
of the Veterans Administration
home facility which by late summer
is expected to be able to house
more than 1900 men and about
30 women. Already % veterans have
settled themselves in the old bar
racks house, which, like the other
buildings at the fort, echoes with
the memories of marching feet.
They Like 1t.
The buildings at the fort are old
they need painting and interior
work done. But the veterans seem
to like it there.
