Banana Peel for Wallace
by Peter EdSOn

.ower fattens itself on party patronage, and still ,lagrantly flouts party leadership which seeks to carry out the peoples mandate, Wallace was quoted saying at Los Angeles. He (the party poitcian) just fire to the living room Wallace reported O have said at San Francisco
 Of course all this that Wallace was talking about lad to do with Senators and Congressmen of which Wallace has never been one His remarks had nothing to do with members of the Cabinet of which he Is That is very neat technical alibi and out. There is no doubt however, that Cabinet members enjoy just much of the party patronage fat, to say nothing of government furnished ice cream and cake. do members of Congress. Furthermore Cab met members responsible not to the voters, but the President personally.
 Wallace has another alibi in that he showed the ext of his New York speech to the President and got clearance it before delivery.
 But the question still unanswered is why mem of the Cabinet should not be required to toe the party line just as much as the poor guys who have to get out and work to get elected to their uneasy and inverted thumbtack-Studded seats Capitol Hill? The higher they go the harder they ought to fall
 In his remarks before the Democratic women last March Wallace himself identified four major party issues They were the ful-employment program, con- trol of atomic energy, the British loan and foreign relations as applied to the United Kingdom and the USSR
 It's the last mentioned of course, which Wal lace Stubbed his toe in his speech before the New York PAC rally last week. By sticking to his guns after he got back to WashinstoaS and by saying that he WoulG speak tEiS subject again. it might be said II: his own words that he just set fire to the living room"

Foreign Affairs

WASHINGTON -LAffaire Henry Wallace con nues to stir interest and provoke debate and natur ally
 One point frequently raised, and by some who know better, is worth noting because of its naivete This is the criticism that the Secretary of Commerce took foreign affairs into politics as if that were crime He did, and Intentionally.
 Foreign affairs is hp-deep in politics in thi country. It always has been It always will be- Fron on this undoubtedly will be more true than ever or should be- for world has contracted so tha what happens elsewhere affects everyone of us It truly a crossroads issue
 It is in politics irrespective of Henry Wallace an what he said at Madison Square Garden. The reason is simple. We are having an election in a few week. in which he will choose a House of Representative and third of the Senate first election since tn war.
 Congress will have much to do with the course Of foreign affairs in the years it has in the past It is nice to say that it shouldn't become controversial issue, but it will and must Look back at what happened in the last Congress.
 There was, for example, diyision-with some stiff and sizable Republican opposition-on that were definite part of program of information al cooperation and essential to it's Among them the reciprocal tariff program extension of selective service the British loan.

Suggests Library
Location Here

In letter to Mr.. A. T. Matthews,
Captain Charles f. Hoye is suggest
ing a possible location for perma-
nent library in Oakland. The letter
was written before Capt. Hoye left
the county for the West Coast
Sang Run, Md, October p, 1915.
Mr. A. T. Matthews,
Member Board of Trustees,
Garrett Memorial Church,
Oakland, Nd.
Dear Mr.. Matthew's:
understand that the Episcopal
church of Oakland wishes to acquire
the Garrett Memorial church, which
it now occupies. Garrett county also
needs a public libary building. If the
county could secure a suitable build
ing, with State aid recently provided
by the General Assembly, it would not
be difficult to establish a real county
library, serving the whole county.
The Episcopal church owns par
ish house conveniently located and
well adapted for library. 1t is sug-
gested that your board try to ar
range so that the needs of the Epis-
copal church and the county can both
be satisfied, without expense to
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1946-02-07

either. These objects might be at
tanned by deciding the church to the
Episcopalians, they in turn deciding
their parish house to the county for a
library and other community pur-
poses.
l do not know what the wishes of
the Garrett family are in relation to
the disposition of the Garrett Memorial
church, who originally gave the build
ing as a community church, but, in
view of the fact that our county was
named in honor of John w. Garrett, it
appears that, if their gift led to hous-
ing public county library, this would
be more suitable memorial than that
their gift become the property of any
che group or sect.
Very sincerely yours,
CHARLES Z. HOVE.

Letter From State
Superintendent
Gives His Attitude
On Reorganization

On November 30, 1915, F. E. Rath-
bun, County Superintendent of the
Garrett county school system, wrote
to Dr. Thomas G. Pullen, Jr., State
Superintendent of Schools, at Balti-
more, stating it may be necessary to
make one, two, three CT four rooms
out of the auditorium of the Oakland
High school in order to provide facil-
tiles for seventh grade pupils Of Oak
land Elementary and surrounding
schools in order to further the Junior
High school program or to advance
the GO plan
Mr. Rathbun added there were
many disadvantages to this plan, "but
under existing circumstances it may
be the only alternative"
Mr.. Pullen's reply was written De-
ccmher 5, and telegram to him one
day last week sought permission to
quote in The Republican from his let
ter. His reply was to the effect that
only the entire letter could be used,
rs partial quoting "would not give a
clear picture"
The contents of Dr.. Pullen's letter
follow:
an reply to your request of No
vember 20, | am sending you copy
of House Bill PIT which became Chap
ter 558 of the Laws Of 1915. The ital-
icized sentence on the first page in
dicates that the reorganiZed schools
shall be organized with the approval
of the State superintendent Of Schools
according to rules and regulations of
the State Board of Education for pu-
pills who have completed the six ele-
mentary grades, and as soon as APP
proval is givei by the State Super
Intendent Of Schools, and such high
school so organized shall become a
part of the minimum State school pro-
gram
I'VE do not wish to go about reor-
ganizing schools before adequate ia
cilities are available. The intent of
the extended program is to provide
better opportunities for children than
they have had in the past. If we put
them into makeshift facilities which
make conditions less good for the eX
listing high school population because
of the resultant overcrowding and
lack of opportunities for gymnasium
and auditorium activities, we shall be
doing harm rather than good. should
rot want to approve a makeshift an
Iangement for the sake of bringing
seventh grade pupils now adequately
housed in the surrounding territory
into a central school The transporta-
ton Of these seventh grade pupils
should await the construction of a
building which will meet the needs
of the program adequately.
"Such a temporary arrangement
might hull the people into feeling that
the new building is not Necessary
When the extra group of pupils must
be housed four or more years hence,
additional facilities will be absolutely
necessary. Why not get them before
any seventh grade children from the
outside are brought into the Oak
land school?
CAS- indicated above, | am not will
ing to approve a reorganization at
Oakland which involves dividing the
auditorium and gymnasium into from
one to four rooms"

THERE is NO SUBSTITUTE
FOR WORK
BY RUTH TAYLOR

We re-Iearned one important lesson
during the war years. 1t was lesson,
the application Of what made this
country great in the past and gave
the world a new goal Of prosperity
and freedom at which to aim. This
lesson was that there is no substitute
for hard work.
A wise man once said that 90 per
cent of what men call genius is only
talent for hard work. And he was
pretty near right. The great discov-
cries, the great inventions, the great
deeds we acclaim were done by men
with an infinite capacity for taking
pains, by men who were not easily
discouraged, who went right on work
irg even when they didn't want to
keep at it, who just wouldn't give up
as long as there was something to be
done
There isn't any other way to sue
coed. Success must have a firm foun-
cation if it is to be permanent and
that firm foundation takes energy and
labor and courage to build Alright.
During our prosperous years, we
sought too often for short cuts to
what we wanted. We let our wishes
govern our actions. We hunted madly
an Aladdin's lamp which we could
simply rub to make our widest de-
sires and dreams come true. We in
eulged in. snap courses. Learn with
out effort" 'Reduce without exercise
CT dieting" Easy jobs at good pay"
were our slogans. We didn't want to
give up to succeed-but success comes
only through sef-sacriGce, not by
sacrificing others.
In war we again learned the habit
Of work. All of us had something to
do, and we found out that the more
we did, the more we could do. We de-
veloped new skills-from the white
collar men who went into the fac
tories to the homekeeper who went
back into the kitchen. We all learned
cow to work-and above all to work
together.
Now the war is over, are we salts
fled to go back to our pre-war atti-
tudes? Or will we put the new knowl-
edge into making this world we have
worked to save, the world in which
we want to live, the world we want
to pass down to future generations.
If we work as hard for peace as we
did for war we can win the victory of
peace and set up for all time the
kind Of world of which we have
dreamed, world of opportunity for
work, of service for all mankind.

IN MEMORIAM

In memory of our dear mother,
Mrs. Margaret E. Otto, who passed
away sixteen years ago, February 8.
We are sad within our memory,
Lonely are our hearts today,
For the one we loved so dearly
Has forever been called away.
We think of her in silence
No eye may see US weep,
But many silent tears are shed
When others are asleep.
God knows how much we miss her,
Never shall her memory fade
Loving thoughts shah ever wander
To the spot where she is laid.
