U. s. PERSONNEL MEN LOANED
TO STATE FOR HOSPITAL STUDY

Two experienced personnel officers
from the Occupational Analysis Divi-
sion of the United States Employ
ment Service are now engaged in
making a survey of employment prac
tices in the States mental institu-
tions, Governor Herbert r. O'Conor
has revealed. The two personnel off,
GERS were loaned to the State, he
said, following a request to Bernard
r. Altman, head of the Occupational
Analysis Divivsion. Their arrival
marks another effort by the State to
solve the battling problem of secur-
ing adequate personnel to staff and
operate the five mental hospitals un-
der the Board of Mental Hygiene.
In stating that the first report OF
the visitors is due tkis week, Cover
nor O'Conor declared: I'VE are ex-
ceedingly hopeful that as a result of
the very thorough studies now being
made of personnel practices and re.
quirements in the institutions, we
will find a way through which the
present admittedly inadequate per-
sonnel of these institutions may De
brought up to adequate strength.
"In the aggregate, the State has
been able to maintain the institution
staffs at only SO percent of the total
number for which financial provision
was made, and in the very important
matter of doctors, nurses and hospi-
tai attendants, the present staffs at
the five hospitals represent only SIS
percent of the number deemed neces
sary for adequate operation. This
situation has developed through the
war years despite extraordinary ef-
forts by the hospital authorities, Of
ten in direct cooperation with tie
State administration.
''In February of 1912, the Institu-
ton employees were raised $40 per
month. The following year, the new
Standard Salary schedule for institu
ton employees increased the maxi
mum pay another SIS per month, in
addition to which all employees draw
ing less than $500 year were
granted a special bonus of SIS a
month. Later that year, the Board of
Public Works authorized payment of
overtime for a work week exceeding
48 hours.
''In 1945, the base pay scale was
raised an additional SIS a month and
the new State law governing over
time pay went into effect. AS result
of all these increases, the average
pay of hospital attendants and en-
ployes is now $925O per month plus
maintenance, an increase of 130 per
cent over the base pay in effect in
1885"

Appealing the churches of the Uni
ted States for generous gifts of food
and cLjthing for the direct and indi-
rect victims of war the world over,
the Federal Council of the Churches
of Christ in America said: "It is Luz
man greed and human ignorance
which keep the larder bare for hun
dreds OF millions. The fellowship of
starvation can but prepare the way
for anarchy and desolation more ter
rible than war itself. When countless
homes are blasted and destroyed,
then bitterness eats corrosively at
the protective walls of brotherhood.
In the spiritual vacuum left by war
fresh wars of hate boil up to engulf
new victims. Thus hope becomes as
deep a need as bread. The rebuilding
of life and hope in Europe and Asia
and Africa calls not alone for mater
ial gifts of food and clothes and for
the physical reconstruction of church
institutions. 1t awaits as well such
resurgelce of the life of the spirit as
will cause the churches to bring 10
bear upon TIE problems and issues
of our time the penetrating insights
of the Christian gospel"

FIGHTING FAMINE

Sharing some of our food supplies
with the starving peoples of Europe
need not endanger the health of our
own nation, according to DR.. r. H.
Riley, Director of the State Depart
ment of Health. To make his asser-
tion more convincing DR.. Riley quot
ed this statement of the Depart
ment's Nutritionist concerning nutri-
tionally adequate substitutes for
scarce foods.
although the wheat, fats and oils
so desperately needed by the starving
nations will not be available here in
the usual quantities, the markets can
supply suitable substitutes" the nu-
tritionist believes. "They can provide
the needed food values, add welcome
variety to meals and, at the same
time, conserve the scarce foods.
'sOatmeal is a nourishing cereal
grain to take the place of wheat. The
protein value of the food is increas-
ed when a bowl of oatmeal is served
with whole milk or when oatmeal Is
used in cookies containing eggs or
added to meat loaf. 1t may also
be used instead of some of the wheat
-four to make nutritious bread and
mullins. Oatmeal should be cooked
quickly to save Vitamin B.
"Cornmeal can also be substituted
for part of the -four in recipes. Corn
bread is delicious covered with
creamed chicken and served with a
green vegetable and potato boiled
whole in it's skin.
Fresh fruits are recommended for
desserts. They can be used instead of
cakes, pies and other sweets con-
tanning wheat. All \ leftover stale
bread could be used in puddings.
'If meat is hard to obtain use more
milk, eggs, poultry, fish and cheese.
LAS is generally known, fats and
oils are desperately needed. Every
ounce of used fat-extra on meat,
bacon fat, chicken fat-sEould be
saved and used. When possible foods
should be baked, broiled or boiled
instead of fried. Homemade salad
dressing can be used, and lemon juice
or vinegar can take the place of
French dressing"

RECOMMENDS INCREASE in
GASOLINE TAX FOR ROADS

Appearing before the Legislative
Council on May Is, Robert M. Rein
dollar, chairman of the Maryland
State Roads Commission, recon-
mended an increase in the gasoline
tax for the sole purpose of rehabili-
tating and extending the primary
road System. Mr.. Reindollar, in sup
port of the proposed increase, stated
that OFT primary roads are "outmod-
ed and inadequate"
j. P. Lauigan, Executive Secretary
of the Maryland Petroleum Indus
tries Committee, who was present at
the hearing, challenged Mr.. Reindol-
Roads Commission would have on
July 1st, the start of the new fiscal
year. Mr.. Reindollar replied that the
question of surplus had no relation
to the request for an increase in tax
Pressed for an answer, Mr.. Reindol-
lar stated that the surplus will
amount to several millions of dollars.
After the hearing, Mr. Lanigan
made the following comment regard
ing the proposed increase: During
the last several months, we have
heard lot about 'surpluses' in Mary
land. Certainly the State Roads CON-
mission must have surplus of road
money because spending for road
work was limited during the war
period, while the motorists of Mary
land continued to pay gasoline taxes
and registration fees in the same
amounts during the war period as
they paid in the pre-war years of
1886 and 1887 In fact, in 1945 the
motorists in Maryland paid in gaso-
line taxes $1,000, 100000 more than
was paid in 1897. Surely, if the mon
ey has not been spent, there must be
a surplus. And@if surplus does ex-
list, why does the State Roads Com
mission want an increase in the gas
tax?
Granted that costs of construc-
tion have increased, so also has the
revenue from The gas tax increased.
Maryland will receive this year S2,-
500,000 more in gas taxes than was
received in 1945. Maryland will also
receive many millions in federal aid
for highways. And, yet the State
Roads Commission pleads that it
needs an increase in the gas tax"

THE BUDGET WILL NOT BE
BALANCED

From time to time a good deal OF
newspaper space is devoted to the
statements of politicians telling how
"the Government budget will be bal
anced." President Truman submitted
budget figures last January that pro-
vided for $35, $780, 100000 of appro-
priations for the fiscal year of 1947.
The United States Treasury announ-
ced that it is going to redeem matur-
ing securities amounting to $3,S54,-
500,400 Other 'sretirements" of Gov
ernment obligations bring the totals
up to approximately 10 billion dol
lars.
Senator Tydings of Maryland, has
been taking the bull by the horns, in
sisting that the spending top of the
Government for the next fiscal year
must not exceed 81 billion dollars.
Senator Byrd, who put Virginia on a
sound foundation when he was Gov
ernor of that State, is trying to force
system by which Federal expendi-
lures can be definitely identified.
Byrd wants the money and the cred
it's and securities and debts all count
ed so that the totals will show just
exactly where matters stand in re-
gard to income and expense, analysis
of surpluses and deficits, sources and
uses of funds.
Size it all UP, and the conclusion
is that the budget will not be balan-
ced, and the national debt will not be
reduced nickel.

THE PRESIDENT OFzTHE
UNITED STATES
BY j. Il. Jones

Washington, d. c., June 3, 1916
At the very top of the crisis growing
out of the railroad strike the radio
waves carried the voice of Mr.. Tru-
man, Enthusiastically proclaiming the
authority of "the President of the
United States" Up to that hour Mr..
Truman had not met the issues grow
ing out Of strikes. But when he ap-
peared before Congress as tthe rep
resentative of 140 million people,"
and gave his ultimatum to the strik-
ers as the head of the American Gov
ernment, he was Immediately ac-
claimed, throughout the Nation.
There can be no question about
this reaction because there were
more kilograms, mostly of approval,
received at the White House than at
any other previous time in history.
Even more important, there was a
more positive non-partisan show of
support from Democrats and Repub-
lican Congressman than has been
known at any time in more than 15I
years. All of which shows that re-
gardless of politics, TIE United States
is still fundamentally American and
not hopelessly lost in political slav-i
cry. l
The President of the United States
took plenty of time before challeng-,
ing the labor union leaders, but he
worked pretty fast when he got goin.
A pair of ruthless and arrogant labor
chiefs who had challenged the au-
thority of the United States Govern
ment were knocked completely out.
Robertson, who heads the Loco
motive Firemen and Enginemen, ex-
pressed his opinion that anyone pos
sessed of an elementary knowledge
of labor relations would have known
that strike against the Government
was foredoomed to failure" And
Cashen. head of the Switchmen's
Union, remarked: "Why should la
Dor criticize him (the President) for
doing the only thing he could do un-
der the circumstances" And-in
Washington, the most critical locali-
ty in the United States, practically
the whole population joined in appro-
val of the President in his role.
Bread And Butter
Thousands of citizens go to market
looking for bread, butter or margar-
inc and come away as much discour-
aged as the old lady who went to the
cupboard and found it bare. That is
the index to very big story which
involves the activities and affairs of
the Office of Price Administration
and associated government "brass
hats in the Administration. The in
dications are that in the not very dis
tant future the industrial organiza-
tion and dealers will again be able to
set prices on the goods they sell. At
the present time OPA is maintaining
it's own self-pricing plan, but there
are a dozen or more important indus
tries that have been released from
the government formula. Since the
country is inflated" right now lot
of these brainy chaps in the Govern
ment are switching around to the
restore the old system of open COM
petition.
Housing

Housing Act is law. 1t provides for
2,7OO,0OO dwellings during 1916 and

priority and ALLEGATION authority for
building materials will continue.
