County Democratic Congress-,
meeting at Bethesda Tuesday
evening, unanimously adopted ala
point platform for the prediction
campaign, and also adopted Z

istration on public schools, safe
ty, health, roads, welfare, parks,
fire protection, veterans affairs,
easements for taxation, the low
tax rate, storm water drainage
and the coming Of residential and
business areas.
The congress, which was presid-
ed over by the chairman, Judge
Alfred d. Noyes, of the Juvenile
Court, also voted to authorize q
committee to be headed by Joseph
A. Cantrell, candidate for State
senator, to add other planks to the
platform and to include one on
lone rule.
The platform pledges the party
to continue the county's record Of
good government and the con-
tlnued furnishing of every neces-
sary service" Of local government
in the most modern and efficient
manner, as well as the continue
ton OF the county's long establish
ed system Of public improve
ments." 1t says in part:
"The old and new residents
working together through the
Democratic Party have made this
great county the best place around
Washington in which TO live. The
record is that every new feature
Of this useful result Of local gov
ernment has been proposed, enact
ed and administered by Democratic
officials here in Montgomery
County since the age Of the auto
mobile made living in suburban
communities convenient and adj
vantageous. Should you be gen.
orally pleased with your county as
it is today, the Democratic County
candidates appear to have earned
your support"
"The County election returns
rrove that for only four years
since the turn Of the century has
so much as a part Of Republic
can County Administration been
elected in Montgomery County.
In 1884 a Republican-Fusion---
Independent Board Of County
Commissioners was elected for Q
four-year term" "a
Speaking on the question OF
electing board to draft a charter,
j. Bond Smith, counsel to the Park
and Planning Commission urged a
vote against it $50 strong that it
will never return"
Roger J. Whiteford, of Chevy
Chase, a District Of Columbia and
county attorney who debated
against the proposed charter when
IL came up two years ago, also
spoke Tuesday evening, and point
ed out that county government
vas founded on system Of
checks and balances" Charter
will make checks but no balances"
he declared.
Giving a veterans opinion, Col.
Hubert Snyder Of Bethesda said
the servicemen who had fought to
preserve our form Of government,
did not want TO find it had been
changed when they returned.

State Urges
 Farm Safety

Observance of Connecticut Farm Safety Week, which starts Monday, finds Gov. Raymond E. Baldwin calling on all farmers to eliminate hazards and strive to cut down ac- cidents which reduce farm produc- tion.
 Governor Baldwin has issued the following statement;
 Each year accidents on farms and in rural areas or our state take an unnecessary toll of lives and re- suit in injuries to our people. The result is loss of substantial amounts of farm products, and what is more important, accidents bring about suffering and hardship to our farm families.
 Tt is the duty of each and every farm and his family to see that hazards of farm life are reduced so that unnecessary risks are avoid ed.
 Tn this mechanical age there are more hazards connected with farm ing than ever before. I am pleased, indeed, that the state university, through the College of Agricultural and the Extension Service is pro- viding such aggressive leadership in farm accident reduction. indorse this program Wholeheartedly.

Hoyfever Dangers Cited
 Dr.. Godfrey Warns
 Of Impending
 Pollen Season

Dr. E. J. Godfrey today urged all residents of Waterbury with ragWeed growths in their backyard to destroy the plant now to pre- vent hay-fever suffering on the part of their neighbors.
 In prepared statement Dr, God frey issued the following instruc- tions and warnings:
 As we approach the ragweed sea- son those persons who have hay fever, from exposure to this poll len, are again preparing them selves to go through a period of misery and discomfort. Now is the time for all good people to come to the rescue of their neighbors and clear their vacant lots of the hayfever weed which causes so much discomfort to their neigh hors.
 "Hayfever is usually caused by pollen from the ragweed which floats in the air or are waited from long distance. From the 18th of August till the first frost is the season when most people suffer from this condition and if the rag weed can be pulled up before this season much suffering will be amehorated so we are making an appeal to all our citizens who own vacant lots in which ragweed is prevalent to start the destruction early because we know much can be done if lot owners will assume responsibility in keeping vacant places free from hayfever plants and where there ,are large vacant areas the people in those communities could do much by assuming re- sponsibility of ragWeed destruction.
 Do you know that
 l. Ragweed plants grow every season unless pulled up.
 ?, RagWeed pollen produces hay fever.
 3. RagWeed pollen is released in to the air from the middle of Aug ust to the first frost of each year.

 Items Back on Store Shelves
 Quick Come Back of
 Previously Scarce
 Products

Scarce food and grocery items, which for many months have been missing from local pantry shelves, are returning to the market, sur vey disclosed today.
 Virtually unpurchaseable two weeks ago and now appearing in large quantities on the market are such frozen foods as peas, string beans, strawberries, and peaches.
 The case is the same for canned fruit Although fresh fruit is now available in abundance, many housewives, surprised by the sud- den appearance of canned fruit, are reported storing away the preserved products just in case" Noted on grocery shelves were large amounts Of canned peaches, figs, and april cots, and one store had the hereto fore very scare pineapple.
 Pineapple juice was on display at several stores, both in large and small cans. Until two weeks ago, Waterbury housewives only occa- sionally were able to find small cans, and then the limit was one to customer. A limited supply of crushed pineapple also was noted
 Canned fish, including tuna and crabmeat, have re-appeared abund- antly on the market. Salmon was available in at least one large down. town store.
 Laundry soap. which had been almost unobtainable for most Wat erbury housewives for the past few months, has begun to trickle in. Many of the soap firms, however, have shipped the scarce item in small sizes only. Both soap flakes and cake-soap were noted on dis play today.
 Cream cheese has reappeared along with the now abundant but ter, and housewives have found a wide variety of meats to choose from
 Still missing, however, were fats, oils, certain spices, and salad dressings. The variety on cold-cuts still appeared small, and juice oranges were not as plentiful as ln past weeks.

had been estimated not to come un- til 1860.
 Traffic experts at the clinic agreed that the cities themselves will have to attack the parking problem if there is to be any real solution. SeV- eral proposals were advanced, among them one that cities take over lots and unused space in cen- tral districts and set them aside for parking Another plan called for establishment of municipal parking lots at the fringe of busi- ness districts. one establishment to this being a scheme for under ground walkways, with esealators. Shuttle buses from fringe parking lots were also suggested.
 Dallas. Tex. plans four parking lots. one on each side of the main commercial center Thirty-siX firms in Milwaukee Wis. have formed 3 corporation to tackle the parking problem. Tn Oakland Calf. mer- chants pay for operation Of open air lots on the basis of tickets they validate for customers. In Kansas City, 20 per cent of the cost of city parking lots has been assessed against merchants who benefit. the remainder of the cost coming from general city funds.
 One drastic expedient proposed s6 temporary measure was that all parking in downtown areas be eliminated during the hours of heavy traffic, Waterbury has eX- n6ented along this line by ban- ning parking on parts of certain streets during the evening rush hour.
 The traffic clinic was told by statiSticians that though there are now 5.oOoooo fewer cars on the road than before the war, traffic is 40 per cent greater.
 Said one expert Unless cities meet the problem, downtown shop ping and office districts will break up into many and widely scattered small shopping districts.
