Around Town With
The Editor

AS promised in this column last
week, the publication of all laws
affecting Washington County, passed
at the last session of the State Legis-
lature, and signed by the Governor,
will begin in next weeks issue.
/ got a big kick out of reading a
news item in the daily papers last
week, which stated that: Governor
Lane, recognizing the necessity of
concerted action to stop the appal-
ling loss of life and limb and the
tremendous economic loss, due to
preventable accidents, believes it is
the duty of the State to take the
lead in a program to protect its cit
liens
"He has, therefore, asked EN-
manuel Gorfine, chairman of the
State Industrial Accident Commits
sion, and Joseph A. Halter, Director
of Safety, to promote safety con-
ference of various interests through
out Maryland
Now here are the facts:
AS far back as February 4, Mr..
Halter announced that the Depart
ment of Safety was promoting such
a conference; announced the names
of the members of the various COM
mittees, which included at least one
Hagerstown man; and gave the date
and place of the Conference.-The
16 and II, at the Lord Baltimore
Hospital. And to cap it all, the
complete tentative program was
worked out and given to the mem
bers of the program committee, on
April 10.
Either the dailies were mighty
late in releasing the story, or the
executive publicity department at
Annapolis failed to give credit
where credit was due.
