UNLIGHTED TAILLIGHTS
JEOPARDIZE SAFETY

Numerous complaints are reaching
keystone Automobile Club concern
ing the traffic danger created by un
lighted or dim taillights on motor
vehicles, particularly trucks.
In recent months, according to the
Club, there has been noticeable in
crease in violations of the law re-
quiring tail lights to be so maintain
ed that they are visible under normal
atmospheric conditions from dis
lance of 200 feet to the rear. The law
likewise requires that the tail-lighi
illuminate the license plate with a
white light and that the plate be kept
clean for identification purposes.
Highway safety is definitely jeo-
pardized by motorists and truck
drivers who fail to meet tie laws
requirements with respect to rear
lights said George e. Keneipp
Manager of the Club in Maryland. "A
car or truck with dim or dirt-encrust-
ed tail light is just asking for col
lision, especially on nights when visi-
bility is poor. Ordinarily there is nc
excuse for this dangerous practice:
it's largely carelessness on the par,
of the operator"

THE PHILIPPINES

On our next Fourth of July the
Philippines will become independent,
in accordance with acts of Congress
of the United States. Those acts were
passed several years ago and ratifi ed
by further Congressional authority
on June 20, 1914.
The Philippines were" one of the
prizes # the Spanish-American War,
and the first interest we lad in the
islands was Admiral Dewey's victory
over the Spaniards in Manila Bay.
We took them but we had a hard
time holding the Philippines.
But in the last AZ years what
might be called "a beautiful friend
ship has grown up between the
Filipinos and the American people.
We aren't going to push them aside,
and tell them to paddle their canoe,
and we are not going to withdraw
our promise of independence schedul-
ed for July 4, 1916. We had pretty
tough time in driving the Japanese
out of the Philippines-bu We did it..
Now, we are going to let the Fill
pinos establish their own government
that program is progressing as rapid
ly as possible, supported by every
branch of the United States Govern
ment.

sPEEDIER SERVICE ON SHORE
RAY FERRY ASSURED

Conversions of the s. s. Emerson c.
Harrington from steam to Diesel OPP
Grafton has been authorized by the
State Roads Commission. AS a result
of this change-over.. the run across
the Eastern Bay, which now takes
approximately so min Les, will be
cut to half that time, t-ius affording
not only swifter transportation for
the patrons of the Romancoke-Clai-
borne Ferry, but also making pos
sible greatly improved service gener-
ally over this line.
The cost OF this conversion to Die
sci operation will be ISL, 800 and has
been approved in the belief that ev-
erytking possible should be done to
render service on this branch Of the
States highway" system as conven-
lent to the people OF Talbot County
as could possibly be done. The Cover
nor recalled the extensive repairs
made to the Claiborne Ferry sip last
year, as further instance of the de-
sire to improve ferry facilities to the
utmost extent
With the $1,5O0,0O0 provided this
year for a new Ferry Boat for tn >
Sandy Point-Matapeake Branch of
the ferry and for renovation of tie
Matapeake slip to provide terminal
facilities for two boats, with necas-
sary roadway and jetty changes, con-
version of the Harrington will bring
to an all time high the expenditures
made in any given year on behalf
of those who use the Chesapeake Bay
ferries. The improvements at Mata-
peake, coupled with the improve
ments to the road from Wye Mills to
Easton will afford residents of Tai
bot County and the lower counties of
the Shore the best highway facilities
the State has ever provided in all it's
history, the Governor emphasized.
The two contracts from Wye Mills
to Skipton and from Skipton to near
Easton, have been given first priority
by the State Roads Commission, the
Governor emphasized, and this will
assure completion at the earliest pos
sible date.

BIG SHOT DIPLOMACY

When the Roosevelt-Churcill meet
ings were attracting the attention
of the world, those statesmen called
in Premier Stain, and at later date
President Truman and Prime Minis
ter Attlee Joined in meetings of the
big Shots"
Now President Truman has been
studying these special conferences
through his International micro
scopes. As a result he has made a
very important announcement to the
effect that he is opposed to any more
of these special conferences because
tehy infringe upon the duties of the
United Nations. The cracker" on the
end OF his remarks was the state
ment that the League of Nations was
ruined by special conferences. Official
Washington agrees: Truman is
right"

NOT LIKE THE OLD DAYS

Not long ago 20-cow farm en-
ployed hired man the year round.
Today a milking machine will milk
20 cows in an hour and half.
One of the country's leading agri-
cultural publications expressed the
belief that farm tractors and the sup
Elementary attachments are about to
become common within the next year.
In support of expectations the pub
lie has been told that the time is in

half the neighborhood crowding into
the kitchen for an overworked farm
wife to feed.

GAMERS PRAISED

The substantial contribution to the
war effort made by the canning in
dustry of Maryland, Delaware and
New Jersey was praised by Carlos
Campbell Washington, d. c., secre-
tary of the National Gamers Asso-
citation, in his address at the annual
convention of the Tri-State Packers
Association, in Baltimore on Dec. T..
speaking of canned tomatoes
alone" he said, mo other single sec
ton of the country fulfilled so high
a percentage of the total require
ments of our armed forces. More
than 100000 cases, or about 27.5
pc recent of the total Army purchases
of this commodity were supplied by
Tri-State Gamers. This quantity was
alone sufficient to feed the entire
American Army engaged in the Euro
pean Theater of War" Contributions
of other canned items from the Tri
States also were important, the
speaker stated
Mr.. Campbell was speaking of a
canning district which Graded the
canning industry of this country and
he paid tribute to the foresight and
breadth of view of the pioneer can
ners who established an industry
that has now. expanded into all but
two of the 48 states, as well as the
territories of Hawaii, Alaska, and
Puerto Rico. mot only has the in
dustry spread geographically from
it's earlier concentration around Bal
timore, but the number of food items
canned has increased during the past
40 years from relative few to over
800 individual products, he said.
"In some sections of the country
that are farther removed from the
centers of consumption" said Mr.
Campbell, Canning factories are the
principal medium through which
fruit and vegetable crops are market
ed. The canning industry has contin-
ued to be very closely related to
farming. In fact, it is substantially
the processing division of agricul-
ture. This is particularly true of the
Tri-State area" he stated, where
the canning industry has continued
through many years to be an indus
try of small operators very closely
tied in with the farmers of the area.
1.-The Tri-States enjoy the distinc-
ton of having the greatest concen-
tration of canning factories of any
section of the United States. In an
area of less than 10000 square miles
there are about 800 canning factor
les. Each of these canning plants is
an integral part of and very import
ant contribution to the wealth and
income of the community in which
it is located"

ing progra moi the Tri-State Packers
Association were: Retiring president

MINUTE MEN TO BE FORMALLY
HONORED

Governor O'Conor has announced
that formal Certificates of Apprecia-
ton and Honorable Discharge to for
mer members of the Reserve Militia
of Maryland, otherwise known as
Maryland Minute Men, are now in
course of preparation in the Military
Department of the State.
In view of the fact that there were
between 10000 and $4,000 men in
the units of the Reserve Militia from
the time of it's organization until the
time of it's disarmament, it is esti-
mated that 1t will take about two
months in order to complete the
work entailed.
The Governor stated that he has
issued instructions for the issuance

The Labor Management c

The Labor Management Confer
ence in Washington throws into
sharp focus some of the current
thinking in this country regarding
he relationship between wages and
the national economy. There seems
to be general answer on both sides
that rigE level of purchasing pow
er is essential to high level of pro-
duction. There is evidence that the
Conference may endorse, in principle
at least, the idea of a general wage
increase as contributing to that end.

S0UTHERN'S RULES
TERMED TOO TIGHT

BALTIMORE, Dec. 18.-P)-A.
three-judge federal court yesters
day held that the Southern Rail-
ways regulations on the treatment
of Negroes in their dining cars are
inadequate, thus reversing a pre-
vious decision by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
The suit involved alleged dls-
crimins ton 6 a n S Elmer W.
Henderson, Baltimore Negro. who
asserted he had been denied space
in dining car Of the railway.
The ICC had ruled that the rails
way was guilty. Of discrimination,
but dismissed the complaint on the
grounds that the discrimination
was the result Of bad judgmeE
Of an employee"
The e r a l court, howevers
ruled that the railways regu-
lations are inadequate because
they fail to provide tables res
served exclusively for Negroes.
The opinion was written by Judge
William c. Coleman and coma
Cured in by Judges Morris A.,

Henderson, who is regional d.
rector of the Fair Employment

He said that although the rail.
way had reserved two tables. es-
pecially for Negroes. set apart
from the others by a curtain, he
was not admitted to the diner be-
cause the tables were occupied at
that time by white persons. It had
been the railways practice he as.
serted, to use the tables for serv.
ing whites when the remaining
tables were occupied and no Ne.
groes asked to be served.
Henderson declined an offer, he
said, to be served in his pullman
seat.
