Albert (Happy) Chandler, wisely
prevailed upon lawyers for organized
baseball to settle out-of-court the
controversial Danny Gerdella suit.
1t is our opinion (backed by three
years of legal training) that again,
maybe it wouldn't who can rightly
say? The suit was for 100000 and
what Gardella got out of it was a
1850 contract with the st. Louis
Cardinals in accordance with a rul-
ing by Commissioner Chandler that:
ANY Mexican league jumper can
be carried 80 days without being
counted a member of the squad"

mon swimming up their native riy-

face an added hazard. They will not
only get caught but will also have
to reveal their age Knowing the
age of selected fish from the 194g
catch will help scientists of the
American Can Company in making
quality tests of the new pack.
A salmon's age is determined by
putting one of his scales under a
microscope. The rings on the scale
reveal the fish's approximate age,
in much the same way that annular
rings tell the age of tree. The
method also enables the canning
experts to tell how much time the
fish has spent in freash or salt

HORSE AND
BUGGY DAYS
by
Ida 10 Martin

Winter, it seems, is well on the
way. Any day now we can expect
a big snow. We can expect the roads
to blow shut, the snow plows to
break down, the radiators in the
automobiles to freeze and probably
a lot of other disasters. There is
one thing, however, that will not
happen-there will be no conges-
ton of traffic on Summit Avenue
due to the trolley and the big snow
banks along the sidewalk.
Since it might snow, it would be
well to know the law about snow
on the pavements-at least the law
in 1908. Here it is:
mo person shall permit any snow
to lie on the pavement or sidewalk
in front of his property, longer than
two hours after it has ceased to
snow! and in case of refusal or
neglect of any owner or occupier
of any property to remove the snow
from the pavement or sidewalk in
front of his premises within the
time specified in this section, he may
be fined as hereinafter provided;
and in addition thereto, any police
officer of the town may cause said
snow to be removed and recover the
cost thereof in the name of the
Mayor and Council as common debt
from the person or persons who
shall neglect or refuse as aforesaid"
Neither was coasting permitted
mo person or persons shall engage
in the pastime commonly called
'coasting' upon any of the streets
or alleys within the corporate limits
of Hagerstown."
There are a lot of dos" and
'don'ts' concerning the market
house which at that time was To-
Gated Eat the corner of North Po-
tomac and East Franklin streets, in

REMEMBER WHEN2

Remember when, not so long ago. some
of the highest officials in the Federal govern
ment were saying that a reimposition of
price controls and other such strait-iacket
measures were necessary if runaway price
imitation was to be prevented? Do YOU also
remember that, at about the same time, the
same high officials were dolefully predicting
that any cut in taxes would also give price
imitation new shot in the arm and send the
indexes booming into the stratosphere? We
ali know what happened. Luckily for the
welfare of the nation, Congress refused to
reimpose wartime controls. Congress also
put reduction in income taxes into effect.
For a considerable period of time the price
level changed relatively little-the big infia-
tionary trend that was forecast didn't appear
Then, a few months ago, prices started down
They are still going down. In some cases.
the drops have been very substantial Meat
is the best example of this. Declines of &c
per cent and more in meat prices have beer
registered since last years peak This was
the result Of the traditional functioning OF
the free market. Instead of having a black
market-which always flourishes under gov
ernment controlS-we have had marke1
which is responsive to the all-powerful forces
of supply and demand. It is true that the
tax cuts gave more people more money Il
spend. Along with that, producers in many
fields increased their output. Prices found
their proper level-as they will continue t,
do in the future. The advocates of a regi
mented economy offer interesting theories
but the hard facts just don't back them up.

Tardy Budgets

During the SOth Republican-con-
trolled congress, Democratic lead
ers belabored their Republican
colleagues for failure to comply
with the congressional reorganiza-
ton act in setting up legislative
budget by February is, required
by the law. And today Democratic
leaders are smsrting under Re-
publican attacks for failure to do
the same thing. AS a matter of fact,
when the time set for agreeing on
a legislative budget passed, the
senate extended the time to May /.
That date has come and gone and
as yet there has been no budget
fixed, nor is there likely to be one
set.
