The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1950-11-02

am 1907, for a state paid bonus to Maryland World
War II Almost half Of the states have already
paid its veterans for service during World War
H. Canada declared $500 bonus payable to United
States citizens who served in their armed forces during
World War H. AS veteran, active IN veterans organza-
tions feel familiar with the veterans problems
and would give attention to their needs If elected to
the House of Delegates vii be for all favorable veterans
legislation well for all favorable Garrett county legS-
Maryland West Virginia. Virginia and Pennsylvania
all have different weight laws for truckers If man in
Maryland has 2-ton truck, licensed for 25000 lbs gross
weight he will be arrested for Overlooking as soon as he
enters one three states mentioned above if he IS
carrying a capacity load (and they aren't small ncs)
PENNSYLVANIA will allow $4,000 bs West Virginia and Viz
gna 8 600 lbs If Maryland engineers feel that this
is Just weight for profit and weight that will not harm
roads then do why these bordering states can
NOT recognize our weight laws when our trucks their
state why cant these have the same law for truck
weights? We retail buyers have to more Tor our
,rbasns that are lcked in through these states since
the trucker can't haul much We more because OF
higher freight bill trucker dependent on his truck Tor
his living and can no reason why he should be III
jeopardy of fine for overlooking when travelling through
our bordering states If elected the House of Delegates
I'll if Governor can't meet with the Governors OF
these other states and have standard weight law worked
feel that Garrett County set up retirement and
pension system similar to that of the State We have
of road employees who should have been retired
years If elected I'll endeavor to work out some favorable
solution to this problem:
regulating hunting seasons should be changed will
gladly meet with all Of Garrett County game and rod clubs
if our sportsmen wish, and with them study certain
changes they feel necessary and through my office elect
ed, that the proper authorities are informed
Along this line would like to add that recOg
ne the great of Deep Creek Lake to Garrett County,
bringing in VacatiOnSs and fishermen. | feel more bass
should stocked there and feeder fish for them 1t
is my opinion that the Lake is entitled to more of return
from fishing license in the form of fish than what 1t has
been getting.
The bridge at Ktzmiler is disgrace to the State
Roads Commission. AS it stands wooden
base 10000 h. capacity bridge it is practically useless
Truckers avoid the Kitzmer route to Route so from Oak
land and other thus depriVng ktzmiler OF large
truck route and that business With Maryland spending
more money roads than at any time in its history feel
they should build bridge at kitZmlCr If elected to
the House of Delegates I'll the Influence OF my office
for the State Roads Commission to have modern bridge
constructed there.
1t has been stated that Maryland plans to spend
ST 100000 in Garrett and Aegany counties to develop
our recrcatona feel this should be spent at
all of our recreationa that the money going for
labor will be felt all of Garrett county With 81 million
being spent large part of it will for labor, thus helping
to relieve our unemployment, and then tourist
business will be felt entire county
This money has not yet been appropriated and elected
I'll use my office to work for this appropriation.
Our County has a confusing way of nominating and
ectng County Commissioners Our election law should
changed that for only candidate from each
Commissioner Election District AS the law stands
actually cancelled their vote by voting for two
candida from the Commissioner District II elected
the House of Delegates, of the first bills will intro
duce will change this law the voter will not lose
votes
