Plans to establish a county library
system Throughout Cecil County, to
furnish a supply of books and other
reading materials to all communities
in the county were discussed at a

to impose a levy of two cents per
hundred dollars of assessed valda-
tion.

must be used exclusively for operat-
ing expenses and not for buildings,
and will be administered by board
of seven trustees. The State Board OF
Eudcation will then provide each
year a fund for the purchase of books
on the basis OF eight cents per capita.
1t was estimated at the meeting that
a fund of S2,50O would result for
this purpose.
More tkan 100 persons represent
ign various organizations il The
county were present at the meeting
Miss Olive Reynolds, chairman of the
campaign committee, called for re-
ports from district chairmen, all OF
whom fully endorsed the proposed
levy. No opposition to the levy was
raised at the meeting.

plan will be made by the commi.si m

ROE WINS
VERDICT in
OPA SUIT

Congressman Dudley G. Roe and
his two sons, who operate grain
warehouse at Sudlersville, Md, were
victors in their proceeding contro-
versy with the OPA, which had sued
them i'll Federal Court for treble
damages amounting to $6,966.
A Federal Court jury deliberated
only a short time before rendering a
verdict in favor of the Roes, whose
partnership is known as w. d. Roe
& Son. Federal Judge w. Calvin Ches
nut had left the decision to the jury.
He had declined the defendants
request to instruct the jury that the
verdict would have to be for the de-
fense, and he likewise had denied
similar request by Government attor-
neys that the jury must be in favor
of the OPA.
The Government suit was filed on
May 10, 1945 1t concerned prices
charged for services in the handling
of Government-loan wheat. The OPA
contended that the proper ceiling
price was cents a bushel and tina
the Roes ha mdade charge of that
amount during the 194142 base per-
iod that controlled the price ceilings
On the other hand, Congressman
Roe said the old prices had ranged
from to cents. 1t was admitted
that the charge made in handling
127,4S5 bushels of Government-loan
wheat in 1914 had been 5 cents bu-
shell, and the OPA contended that the
straight overcharge was $2,322.

Priority TO Veterans
BY the Associated Press

Members Of the House Expendi-
lures Committee disclosed yesterday
they have agreed on legislation to
raise the priority standing of vet
Grams in acquiring war surpluses.
Under the new measure, they said,
veterans will be second only to the
Federal Government. At present,
not only Federal agencies, but State
and local political subdivisions as
well, rate ahead of veterans.
The legislators reported. they had
received hundreds of protests from
veterans that the law leaves them
''out in the cold" in acquiring excess
goods.
The new provision should do
away with the unjust treatment ac-
corded veterans" Chairman Manas-
co of the Expenditures Committee
said.
Meanwhile, as the committee de-
liberated on other proposed changes
in the Surplus Property Disposal
Act, demands were heard in Con-
gress for more extensive investi-
cation of how surpluses have been
handled.
Representative Slaughter, Demo-
crat, of Missouri urged Rules Com
mittee members to give considera-
tion Immediately to his bill for
establishment of a special congress
sional inquiry group.
Mr.. Manasco said the EX-
penditures Committee is awaiting
further reports from the Army and
Navy on specific complaints of
destruction and mishandling of sur
plus goods.
He added that his groups in
ouiry already has prompted world
wide inspection tour by Undersec-
retary of War Kenneth c. Royal
to check on ways to speed dis
posal. Mr.. Royal is expected back
this week and the committee hopes
for specific recommendations from
him.
