CABINET HARMONY ESSENTIAL

The issue created by the speech of Secretary Wallace in which
he expressed views on the international situation at great vari-
ance with those of Secretary Byrnes, goes beyond the question
of who may be right and who may be wrong.
No nation can help shape the policy of the world unless its
responsible officials present a united front. The problems faced
by MI. Byrnes in his constant clashes with the Russian dele
gates are extremely difficult. And if the world was permitted
TO believe that he lacked the backing of his President and COL
leagues in the cabinet, his position would be untenable.
Mr.. Wallace could not remain in the cabinet and speak purely
as an individual. Whatever a cabinet officer says will be
weighed and dissected in all the foreign offices of the world,
1t is significant that the day following the Wallace speech, the
controlled Russian press headined his views, praised them to
the skies and intensified it's attacks on Mr.. Byrnes.
Precedent, based on solid realities, dictates that when cab
met officials are no longer able to agree with the administration,
they resign, as Mr.. Wallace was forced to do. In this most
crucial time, the welfare and security of the nation cannot be
served by weakening the ground under our State Department
which is charged with the vast responsibility of representing
our nation in working for a permanent peace.

BUSINESS KEEPS US GOING

Producing, taxpaying industry is the backbone of this coun-
try and the financial mainstay of all units of government.
The oil industry is a good example. Last year, this industry
paid 522 per cent of 4 all the business and property taxes re-
ceived by the state of Texas. If it hadn't been for this in
dustry to put it another way, the business and property taxes
of other taxpayers would have more than doubled.
It was also recently announced that, during the last fiscal
year, federal gasoline tax receipts totaled more than $405 ,OO0,-
900 and excise taxes on lubricating oils came to over S74,O00;
600. This, of course, doesn't include the vast sums in income
and other taxes paid by the oil industry.
A nation with a national debt of nearly $500, 900, 000, 600
and a current annual budget of around $40y 900, 100000 has a
great interest in such industries as this. They pay for our
roads and schools. They meet the salaries of our government
employees. They make the financing of our public debt possible.
Every time a private enterprise expands, governments
source of tax revenue is increased. The opportunity for pro-
ductive jobs grows. That's one of the reasons why we need
less taX-empt government business which destroys taXpaying
private business.

POP VALVES POPPING
BEAT WORDEN 1876

The Locomotives, still travelling
under a full head of steam, downed
a favored Worden team here Fri
day, 1876. The game opened with
Worden running the ends beauti-
fully to make a first down on the
Laurel 4-yard line; there the Pur-
pie and Gold dug in and took the
ball on downs.
The play the rest of the first
quarter was about even. In the
third quarter Laurel started a drive
that ended when full-back Bill
Sorg flipped a 30-yard pass to left
end Bill Roysdon in the end zone.
The try for extra point was just
a little wide of the goal posts.
Worden came back to tie the
score on a 35-yard off-tackle jaunt
by Allen Propp, big husky half
back. The try for extra point fail
ed on a line buck. The half ended
with Worden advancing the ball
to the Laurel 15-yard line.
In the second half, Laurel COM
pletely dominated the play and to-
wards the end of the third qaurter
they were knocking at the Worden
goal line. On the first play of
the fourth quarter Laurel charged
to the 13-yard line, where on a
perfectly executed evers with
Kamerzel toting the leather, they
made a first touchdown on the
Worden vineyard line. On the sec
ond play he dived over to make
the score, Laurel IL, Worden g..
Kamerzel, kicking for the extra
point, split the uprights to make
the score 10 to G..
From then on Laurel held the
visitors at bay, although Worden

into Laurel territory, but the boys
held for downs and were safely
holding their own when the game
ended.
Sorg, Void, Kamerzel and Mill
gan were best in the backfield,
with the entire line performing

This is the third straight win for
Coach Jinx's team against Mon

During April
Responsible For Death
Of 25; 643 Injuries

During the month of April there
were 1852 traffic accidents investiga-

dents were responsible for rs deaths
and 645 injuries. The Baltimore City
Police Department reported 776 acci-
dents with deaths and 372 injuries
while the State, County, and Lo-
cal Police Departments reported 486
accidents with 20 deaths and 273 in
juries.
Baltimore City, with persons
killed in April, experienced a 500
reduction under April of 1945, when
10 pers ons were killed, while the
Counties, with 20 persons killed dur
ing the month experienced ITO re-
duction under April of 1945, VIXEN "a
persons were killed. The years total
for fatalities is now 124 as compared
to 1875 Tor the same period last year
"a reduction of 2 percent.
Fourteen of the twenty-three coun-
ties experienced fatality free month
-Allesany, Calvert, Caroline, Dor
chester, Frederick, Garrett, Howard,
Kent, Montgomery, Queen Anne,
Somerset, Talbot, Wicomico and
Worcester.
Pedestrians with II deaths ac-
counted for 44% of the total fatali-
ties during the month. Baltimore
City experienced 75% decrease in
this type of accident, while the Coun-
ties experienced an 500 increase,
which indicates that the pedestrians

proper precautions-wh walking

Governor O'Conor, the Maryland
Traffic Safety Commission and coop
Grating agencies and individuals in
terested in traffic safety are pleased
to note the reduction in the number
of fatalities during the month-25
persons killed is the lowest for any
one month since August, 1914, when
the same number of fatalities was re-
ported. We hope this reduction was
brought about by the motorists and
pedestrians becoming more and
more safety conscious and not just
late. We would like to feel that the
citizens of Maryland are trying to
