for the 1936-45 period averaged
II, 800, 900 bales.
The prospective increase was
welcomed by government officials
and the cotton industry because
reserves had been reduced to the
lowest level in about 20 years.
While the acreage planted is
nearly ten per cent below the de-
partment's recommendation, the
indicated crop should be more
than ample, officials said, to
cover domestic needs and export
requirements until the 1913 crop
becomes available.
Supplementing production this
year will be a reserve of about
100000 bales from past crops.

Turkey Growers
Told of Benefit in

By the Assoeiufed Press

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Oct. rs. -
Maryland turkey growers were told
yesterday poultryless Thursdays
eventually would be an advantage
to them. They also tasted turkey
in It's newest form-steaks.
C. Fred Smith, Eastern manager
Of the Poultry and Egg National
Board, said telling people not to
eat poultry on Thursdays is max
ing people more conscious of poultry.
If we must sacrifice poultry and
eggs one day during the week, we
will make up for it later on when
this temporary condition is over.
This is the first time in history
when poultry has become a great
factor in international relations.
It's consumption is affecting the eco
nomic future of Europe and the
peace of the world"
The growers, known officially as
the Maryland Turkey Producers
Association, tried the "steaks" at
luncheon. They acme from chopped
turkey meat dropped into a grind
ing machine, which turned out
steaks in oblong form.

mer deputy sheriff, today were given
Federal prison sentences ranging
from six to 18 months for their con-
nection with vote fraud activities in
the 1916 primary election.
They were among the "a persons
indicted by a special Federal grand
Jury which worked most of the sum-
mer investigating ghost voting in

were charged with conspiring to de-
prive lawful voters of their right to
cast ballots.

a half, was imposed by Judge Albert
A. Ridge on Morris (Snag) Klein,
Democratic precinct captain in the
10th precinct of the first ward.

by 4 Federal Court jury September
s, was sentenced to serve year and
day. The third sentence, six
months. was given to Lucius Carter

worker, who pleaded guilty. Carter
was indicted from the 21st precinct
of the second ward.
Frank L. Holmes, colored precinct
worker, convicted along with Klein
and Burke, was granted new trial

In Labor Law Suits .
RY the Associofed Press

liminary chapter in the Nations
first test case of its kind of the Taft
Hartley Act closed today with COM
pletion of hearing on charges that
the International Typographical
Union and it's Baltimore local failed
to bargain in good faith.
The conclusion brought an ac-
cusation by ITU Attorney Henry
Kaiser that the case resulted from
"a preconceived conspiracy worked
out at some undisclosed head
quarters of national organization
not to reach any agreements but to
/ harass the union by as many law
suits as they could"
Earle K. Shave, attorney for the
Graphic Arts League, an association
of % Baltimore printshops which
complained along with the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board Of
/ the alleged union refusal to bargain
Immediately countered that this
statement "is a figment Of Mr.. Kai-
ser's imagination"
william R. Ringer, NLRB trial
examiner, gave counsel for both
sides until November II to submit
briefs, fixing a three-week limit be-
cause "of the Importance Of the case
which ought to give it priority in

hours, the trip should take five days,
Mr.. Thomas estimated.
Mr.. Thomas is financing the trip
himself.
He learned all of the flying opera
tions by passing a pad and pencil
back and forth to his instructor
while he was aloft. The hardest
thing to master, he said, was the
feeling of vibration and balance
feelings which normally are as
sociated closely with the sense of
hearing.
Hopes to Teach Others.
One of his reasons for taking up
flying, he explained, was so that
ultimately he will be able to teach
other deaf men and women to pilot
an airplane.
