For Distribution

In a continuing attempt to assist
any firm or individual in locating a
small or large manufacturing or pro-
cessing plant in Garrett county, the
Mt Top Chamber of Commerce has
recently completed a survey of Oak
land and the county, which it is now
distributing to interested persons.
The industrial development depart
ment of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road has received copies of the survey
and has indicated its willingness to
cooperate in any manner consistently
possible Gayle W. Arnold, manager
told Charles L. Briner, secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce that Coax
land is on our list of desirable spots
for industry, and we will use your
report at every opportunity"
Mr.. Briner said that conferences
could be arranged between interested
parties and local business and
government leaders. The survey
covers background, government, re-
tail trade, agriculture, and real
estate.
The report points out that there
has been an enormous expansion in
the fields of poultry raising and
dairying in recent years. About foul
million gallons of milk were pro
duced in the county last year. The
county's coal and fire clay supplies
are also recorded and the upsurge in
commercial and private building.

Area Unemployment
Under Discussion
Possibilities of Industrial and
Recreati0nal Development Are
Aired

Unemployment conditions in Gar
rctt county and the recreation and in
dustrial development plans here were
under discussion at a joint meeting Of
members Of the Veterans Service
committee and the Board of Directors
Of the Mt. Top Chamber Of Commerce
on Tuesday evening.
The outcome was authorization to
write three letters which may aid in
bring plans to a head. These let
tiers are being mailed to William NJ.
MahanCy, chairman of the Governors
committee for unemployment; to
Grafton Lee Brown, secretary Of the
Maryland State Veterans committees;
and l. Alvin Pasarew, director of the
Maryland State Planning commission.
In Mr. Mahaney's letter the two
committees pointed out the proposed
visit early in August of the Gov
ernor's committee for unemployment
and asked that the joint groups might
meet with the committee to discuss
possibilities Of alternating the serious
unemployment condition.
The committee said any area with
more than II percent Of its employ
able people unemployed was con-
sidcred an emergency area. 1t was
asserted that the county's unemployed
at present, due to the mine shut
downs, was between Is and 20 per-
cent.
Mr.. Brown was asked if it would
not be possible that the Federal sur
vey team Of members Of the depart
mcnts of Commerce and Labor make
survey in this county similar to ono
made in Allegany county.
The third letter requested Mr..
PaSarew to come to Oakland to meet
with the twin-committee prior to the
visit from the Governors committee
on unemployment. to hear of his
plans for the county regarding recre-
alton and development, and to allow
the local committee to present their
suggestions
In Tuesday nights discussion it was
brought out that recreational facilities
were the county's main asset and that
suitable roads should be constructed
into all recreational and state park
areas. 1t is the aim of the group to
suggest that the State Roads COM
mission construct these roads.
With 10000 acres of Garrett county
land under state and federal owner
ship, from which no taxes are col
lected, the local committee felt that
there should be some recompense in
better roads to these areas.

preservation of the scenic and recre-
ational values of the Youghiogheny

and Henry Clay Townships, the
County Commissioners of Fayettc

United States Senate
Candidate Here Today

John Marshall Butler, Baltimore
attorney, candidate for the Re
publican nomination for United
States Senator, conferred here today
with COP party leaders.
In announcing his candidacy But
Ter stated:
As native son of Maryland
have found it difficult to believe that
Senator Tydings accurately repre-
SCENTS in Washington the basic inter
csts and beliefs of the majority Of
Maryland people.
cannot believe that MaIylanders
really want free government dcs-
troyed. l think that the people of
our State recognize the governments
of such countries as Russia and even
England as frantic short cuts to
what Americans take for granted.
We already have the most productive
lives in the world. We need not imi-
tate the brutally-controlled older
countries.
| believe Marylanders want COM
nonsense handling of our national
money. We apply good management
to our housekeeping, business, and in
the operation of our farms. Why not
/ in our government?
And, most of all, it is my belief
that the people of Maryland are not
proud of underwriting the protection
of questionable national admins
tration policies. | do not believe that
we want the Senator from our State
to serve any purpose but our own.
Maryland does not send a man to the
United States Senate to pull bad
chestnuts out of red hot fire.
These are the things that l be
lieve as a citizen and as voter. And
| feel sure that these beliefs are held
also by the men and women of this
State. This, then, is my platform:
To bring strong Maryland voice to
the reaffilmation and strengthening
VI NIHCi lNe'H Pi lllOllIitS' y DC d
representative in the United States
Senate who will be first for Maryland
and what this State stands for.
Butler, who will observe his 53rd
birthday tomorrow, was born in Bal
timore and attended Johns Hopkins
university. He received his law de-
gree from the University of Mary
land in 1926. He became an associate
of the law firm of Venable, Baeticr
and Howard in Baltimore in 1927 and
was admitted to partnership in 1899.
He has been a visitor in Oakland
during the summer months at the
Howard home on Alder street.
During World War I he served
with field artillery division in the
A.E.F. He is a member of the Balti-
more Rotary club, member of the
City Service commission of Baltimore
and past commander of an American
Legion post there.
He was accompanied to Oakland by
Jacob France, Republican national
committeeman. They planned to re-
main in the county all day, and Mr.
Butler said he would return to the
county later for a more complete
tour.

Arson Is Suspected
In Forest Glen Blaze

Montgomery County police are
investigating the possibility of
arson in a fire which destroyed a
vacant Forest Glen bungalow
early today.
One fireman, Alfred w. Dennis,
"a, of 8 St. Paul street. Kensing-
ton, was pierced in the ankle by a
nail and treated at Suburban Hos
pital, Bethesda.
The blaze was discovered short
ly after o'clock by Corpl. John
G. Greenan, stationed at the
Walter Reed Hospital annex at
Forest Glen. The flames had
spread to the entire frame build
ing by the time Kensington and
Silver Spring firemen arrived.
A larger house on the same lot,
which was burned less than a year
ago, was unharmed.
Firemen and police probed the
rubble of the bungalow for two
hours in the belief a tramp may
have set the fire and been burned.
The house, part of the estate of
the late Miss Harriet Freely, re-
tired attorney. had been unoccu-
pied for more than a year.

Gen. Macarthur spoke more
strongly in Tokyo. He said his

liciously misrepresented to the
public by those who invariably in
the past have propagandized a
policy of defeatism and appease-
ment in the Far East"
Contrary to these propaganda
efforts calculated to create the
impression of friction and dis
unity between this headquarters
and various executive agencies in
Washington" he added, there
could be no greater unity of pur-
pose and complete coordination

President Truman has shaken
up the top command of the Re-
construction Finance Corp, multi
billion-dollar lending agency
which Congress wouldn't let him
make an adjunct, of the Com
merce Department.
In an unexpected move, Mr..
Truman late yesterday dropped
two members of the oft-criticized
RFC board of directors, including
Chairman Harley Hise, and named
three new members to the five
man board.
RFC has been the target OF
increasingly hot congressional fire
for such ventures as a $37, SOC, 900
loan to the now-bankrupt Lustron
Corp: for putting tax money into
a Nevada hotel whose revenus
comes largely from a gambling
casino, and for making a $6 mil
lion loan to the Waltham Watch
Co. which later was closed.
Nevertheless, Congress last
month rejected Mr.. Truman's pro-
posal to take away the agency's
independent status and make il
an arm of the Commerce Depart
ment, under supervision of Secre-
tary Sawyer.

Nominations Rebuff
No Test Of Truman's
Standing, Lucas Says
BY the Assoeiaied Press

Senate rejection of four of Pres
ident Truman's nominations to
Government posts was brushed
aside by Senate Majority Leader
Lucas today as just an old Senate
custom.
This was no test of President
Truman's popularity in the Sen
ate" Senator Lucas told a report
er. when Senators have objected
to nominations. they usually have
been refused confirmation as long
as our Government has been in
existence"
President Truman's reaction was
along the same line. He attributed
the rejection to the old rule Of
senatorial courtesy.
Some Senate veterans said they
could not remember when four
separate presidential appointments
had been denied Senate conf1rma-
ton IN a single days session. as
happened yesterday.
Log-Jam Held Responsible.
A log-jam in legislation actually
produced the pile-up because
some of the rejected nominations
had been pending since as far back
as June /.
Republicans were expected to try
to make political capital out of
the Senate actions in the coming
election campaign.
Only one of the nominations
was put to a record vote-that
of Martin A. Hutchinson of Vir-
ginia to be a member of the
Federal Trade Commission.
Hutchinson Defeated Badly.
Facing the firm opposition of
Senator Byrd, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia, Hutchinson was showed
under by an adverse 59-to-14 vote.
Only 13 Democrats voted yes,
aided by Senator LANCER, Repub-
lican, of North Dakota.
AS against the 13 favorable
Democratic votes there were 25
Democrats opposed plus "a Re
publicanS.
Senator Byrd reminded the Sen
ate that one of the Important |
checks and balances" was Senate
confirmation of presidential ap-
pointments. He noted that even
President Truman, as a Missouri
Senator, had battled some Demo-
cratic presidential appointments.
The other rejected nominees
who had been serving under re-
cess appointments, were:
Frank E. Hook. former Demo-
cratic Representative from Michi-
gan, for a job as member OF
the Motor Claims Commission.
M. Neil Andrews, as Federal
district court judge in Northern
Georgia.
Carroll o. Switzer as a Federal
district judge in Southern Iowa.
