Drive Against Use Of Furs
OF Trapped Animals Starts

A drive to discourage women
from buying fur coats obtained
from steel-trapped animals has
been launched by the Federated
Animal Welfare Societies of
Maryland. the District. Virginia
and West Virginia.
Nearly 100 representatives of
20 societies decided on the move
at their semi-annual meeting at
the Raleigh Hotel yesterday.
The societies will urge fur-coat
buyers to demand furs from
ranch or humanely killed
animals in order to curtail use. of
the steel traps, Mrs. Paul M.
Twyne of Arlington, Federation
president, said. Most cheaper
fur coats on the market are from
trapped animals, Mrs. Twyne
said.
Delos E. Culver of Philadelphia,
president of the Defenders OF Fur
bearers, spoke.

District 6. 0.P. Want!
Republican Named
AsCommissioner

. The Districts Republican State
Committee wants a Republican ap-
pointed as District Commissioner
: If Commissioner John Russell
Young is not reappointed when his
term expires in May.
James c. Wilkes, chairman Of
the groups executive committee.
last night released a letter sent to
President Truman asking that lin
any appointments now or here
after to be made the two major
parties be represented by the Sc
lection of one civilian Commis-
sioner from each of them"
Commissioner Young is a Re
publican. Commissioner Guy Mason
is a Democrat. They are the two
civilian Commissioners.
The District Democratic Central
Committee last week indorsed
Thomas P. Morgan, jr.. Demo-
crat. to succeed Mr.. Young.
No Name Mentioned.
Mr.. Wilkes said today neither
Mr.. Youngs name nor that OF any
other Republican was mentioned
at the executive committee meet
ing last Wednesday at which the
policy statement was adopted.
1T was entirely a matter of
principle" he added.
The letter to Mr.. Truman
pointed out that "at the time of
the passage of the Act of 1878
which created the present COM
missioner form of government for
the District of Columbia there
was an understanding by the two
great political parties that the two
civilian commissioners should be
appointed from each of said par
ties" It added that the under
standing" has almost uniformly"
been honored by succeeding Pres
idents up to the present time.
Mr.. Wilkes said the letter
reached Mr.. Truman before he left
for Florida and he hoped it would
be considered while the President
"is combining business with re-
taxation"
Full Committee to Meet.
The full Republican State Com
mittee in and for the District of
Columbia will meet at 8 pm.
Wednesday at the Willard Hotel.
Mr.. Wilkes said the Republican
group probably will take a posi-
ton on the District home rule
question after the subcommittee
of the Senate District Committee
reports out its version of such a
measure. The Republican execu-
tive committee has full authority
to take a position on the measure,
he added.
The Republican leader pointed
out that the national party plat
form adopted last year favors
suffrage for the District and that
two unoficial plebicities in the
District have shown a majority
for some form of home rule.

a House member from Pennsyl-
vania, said the Democratic no
can-do" Congress has now been
In session over two months "and
1t has set a notable record for
intraparty pickering and inability
to act"
With his statement, Mr.. Scott
made public a 22-page inventory"
of pledges of the Truman admin
istration. Mr.. Scott said the Tru-
man program as outlined in the
campaign and to Congress this
year lis approximately the same
which he told the country could
be enacted by the 80th Republi-
can Congress in IS days"

Construction In February
Up ID Per Cent Over 194S

New construction work in Feb
ruary was estimated at $1.100.-
100000 by the Commerce Depart
ment.
That was a normal seasonal
drop" of 8 per cent from Janu-
ary. but it represented IA per
cent gain from February, 1948,
the department said in a state
ment.
Private home construction
turned in a good performance. It
totaled $425 100000. a less-than-
normal" drop of 13 per cent from
January and a gain of 6 per cent
over year ago.
Adding up the score on con-
struction for the first two months
of 1949, the department came up
with a s2,400, 100000 total which
1t said topped the comparable
period Of last year by II per cent.
Denmark may ban scrap metal
export to care for growing home
demands.

INFORMATION REGARDING
FLOWERS AT THE FAIR

Information contained in the
Western Lincoln County Fair Books
needs a bit more explanation fol-
some of the exhibitors.
Division A-FIOwers:
Questions on containers for flow
ers for the fair are coming in from
all sides. Here are a few answers.
Flower arrangements are in any
container of your choice.
Massed display of one or more
types of flowers are also, in your
own choice of containers. No milk
bottle would hold a dozen or so
dahlias or glads.
Entries of one to three or six
stems for flower perfection are in
milk bottles. In this case the con-
tainer has nothing to do with the
merits of the flower.
More and better arrangements
and displays are wanted as flower
shows throughout the country are
StreSsing this department.
