To Build Corner
Structure at 3rd
and Oak Streets

Plans for razing the present frame
buildings, corner of Third and Oak
streets, and erecting a modern build
ing of concrete and stone were an
nounced this week by Stuart f. Ham
i'll, owner. The buildings now are oc-
cupied by the Green Palm Restaurant,
the Ridder Radio and Electric Service,
and the Great Atlantic and Pacific
Tea company
Mr.. HamiIl filed a request with the
Mayor and Town Council at their
meeting this week to permit him to
raze the buildings and erect in their
place a tWo-story concrete and stone
building, with basement, first floor
for a store room, and the second floor
for apartments. The permit was
granted.
Rumors current this week that the
A. and P. company would establish d
super market there were not con-
firmed by Mr., Hamill, who said that
some negotiations were under way
but that nothing definite had been de-
cided.

Recipients of Public
Assistance Are Cut
$1,000 For February
Reasons for Reduction EX-
planned by Francis Connolly,
Executive Secretary of
The Board

The County Welfare Board, faced
with cutting back expenditures in
general assistance funds, is sending
out checks this weekend which will
total $1,000 less per month in that
category than formerly, according to
Francis J. Connolly, executive secre-
tary.
He explained that on October / =,
1916, sufficient state and federal
funds were made available to all well
fare boards in Maryland to raise
grants paid recipients of assistance
in order to compensate for the in
creased cost Of food and clothing. At
that time, he said, the local board had
sufficient local funds on hand to put
part of the increase into effect 1t was
required by ral'r Of the State de-
partment of public welfare that on
January l all increases become effec-
tive for food and clothing.
However, he continued, the Welfare
Board does not have sufficient local
funds in General Public Assistance to
put into effect the increases in that
category and does not have sufficient
funds for the first half of 1947 to
maintain General Public assistance
expenditures at its December rate of
spending.
Mr.. Connolly said the decision to
cut back $1,000 per month in this
category was hard one for the
board, because Of the hardships in
voIvcd to the families affected. 1t de-
cided that all cases which are receiv-
ing experimentation from General
Public Assistance funds must be cut
beginning in February, and accord
ingly ceiling of SIS per month was
placed on the amount of money that
may be used to supplement Old Age
Assistance and Aid to Dependent
Children grants when additional
money is needed for food, clothing,
household maintenance and shelter.
He said the board was hopeful this
cut would not last longer than March
81 when the legislature may take ac-
ton on the State Public Welfare bud
get for the next two-year period. The
contemplated change being considered
by the Legislature would reduce the
county burden for all the cases need
ing experimentation to meet basic
needs. This would result, he said, in
saving to the county of approx
mately $4,000 of county funds for the
last half of 1947, and at the same
time permit the board here to pay
grants to recipients which would be
based on the same standard for all
catcgorics of public assistance.
He explained that the new average
food allowance per day for a man
without a resource, living in a fam
lily of four, is 81 cents per day. His
allowance for clothing is 1920 per
month and coal for all families is
figured at a rate Of $4,25 per ton.

County Committee To
Be Named to Solicit
Funds for Hospital

The County Commissioners, at the
conclusion of their regular meeting
this week, agreed to set up county
wide committee for the purpose of
soliciting funds to be added to the
$175,000 bequest for the Garrett
County Memorial Hospital
The committee is to include men,
Der from every community in the
county who in turn will designate
certain ones to assist in the under
taking
Decision to solicit funds came after
the executors of the will of the late
George W. Loar and the hospital COM
mittee, announced acceptance of final
plans for the hospital construction.
1t was stated this week that plans
will be in shape to receive bids some
time in March.
While the actual cost of construc-
tion was not mentioned exactly, it
was estimated that the building would
cost somewhere between 100000 and
$350000. and that an amount double
the original bequest would be neces-
sary.
While some of this money may be
available through federal funds that
fact will not be known at present, and
those in charge felt that the many
citizens who voluntarily offered con-
tributions when it became known that
the hospital might be reality, should
now have an opportunity to do so.
E. Ray Jones, one Of the executors,
said about 81 400 in cash already had
been received from various individu-
ais since the announcement of the
Loar bequest over a year ago.
J. Edward Helbg, president of the
County Commissioners, said the three
commissioners, the executors, the
county delegation members at Anna
polls, would meet with representa-
tives Of the State Planning Commits
sion in Baltimore next Thursday
morning, February -, at 10 o'clock,
in regard to obtaining federal funds
to add to money already available
locally

"PRIVATE ENTERPRISE"

Usually, Mr.. Henry j. Kaiser, indus
trialist, is considered an example of private
initiative, operating under the free enter
prise theory and, it is presumed, he sin
cerely believes that the government should
stay out of his business.
During the war, Mr. Kaiser construct
ed steel plant at Fontana, California. He
received a considerable loan from the RFC.
The Government, during the war. also
built large steel plant at Bonita. Utah.
Following the postwar policy of dis
posal of governmental property, the Unit
ed States recently sold it's Utah property
to the U. S. Steel Corporation. The govern
ment sale brought the United States Gov
eminent 1852, OOO,O 900 less than it invested
in the plant.
So what? Mr.. Kaiser, who owes $685.
OOO, 900 to the Government, now argues
that the RFC should write off $85, 100000
of the amount that his company borrowed.
He maintains that his company should be
given the same treatment that was accord
ed big steel when it was permitted to buy
the Utah plant at twenty-five cents on the
dollar.
