Ties of Maryland and Virginia
Closer as D. C.. Snubs Them

After the Sasscer motion was
passed, an enthusiastic Virginia
delegate called to Gov. Battle,
chairman of the delegation, You'll
have to give them those oyster
beds now"
The Governor laughed at the
reference to the Maryland-Vir-
ginia oyster "war" that has kept
the two States apart on jurisdic-
ton in some river and bay areas.
IT guess I will" Gov. Battle re-
piled with a smile.
Later, former Gov. William
Preston Lane of Maryland was
among those who came over to
wish the Virginians well. Mr..
Lane shook hands with Senator
Byrd.
Harry" Mr.. Lane said, "I had
to come over and see you. You're
wonderful. We have got to quit
shooting over those oysters"
Senator Byrd beamed back,
Maryland and Virginia always
stand together"

Careless Driving Law
Ruled Out in Cumberland
By the Associaied Pra..

CUMBERLAND. Md. July 25.-
Magistrate Donald w. Mason
ruled yesterday Cumberland's
careless driving" ordinance is in
valid because it duplicates the
State law against reckless driving
His decision freed Paul Buch-
holtz from one part of a charge
leveled against him by city police
who used a radar device as evi-
dence. They said the mechanism
also showed he was speeding.
Mr.. Buchholtz had argued the
city ordinance on careless driving
was invalid and the radar should
not be used as a speedometer.
Judge Mason said he would not
rule on the speedometer phase OF
the case because this will be
handled in State court where
police also brought charges
against Mr.. Buchholtz for the
same alleged offense.

Husbands and wives who work
can learn techniques for happier
homemaking together this fall.
The Graduate School of the De-
partment of Agriculture is offering
its course, Modern Homemaking
for Employed Men and Women" +"
to couples for one modest fee. The
course is not given for credit.
Miss Sadye Addison, technical
assistant to the chief of Agricul-
lures Bureau of Human Nutrition
and Home Economics, will be the
instructor. Miss Addison plans to
invite specialists as speakers and
discussion leaders for each ses-
sion. The class will be allowed to
shape the content of the course,
deciding how much time they
wish to devote to food, clothing,
shelter, family living, money man
agement, time management, work
simplif1cation and teamwork in
the home. Also, as the course
progresses, they will have an op-
portunity to re-evaluate their
plan, changing the emphasis if
they wish. The course will be
conducted at the Department of
Agriculture on Monday evenings
from 6:10 to 8 pm, beginning
September %. Registration will
be held from September 13 to 20.
Data on economy of time, even
more than economy of money,
was in demand the first time this
course was given, Miss Addison
reported. Class members also
shared short cuts of their own
with each other.
Quizzed on her own concepts of
time economy, Miss Addison made
these suggestions: Have a plan.
Have your kitchen well organized.
Have everything you will need for
q specific operation, such as bak-
ing, right on hand together.
Students had chance to see q
movie on the functional kitchen
at Beltsville, Md, and were intro
duced also to new kitchen gadgets
and utensils which make for easier
homemaking.
Students this year will prob
ably hear specialists in housing
discuss construction, design and
furnishings. In the first course,
experts from the Federal Housing
Authority told them what to
look for to determine good con-
struction when buying a house.
Students also had an opportunity to
see the blue prints of the home
Lenore Safer Thye, head Of the
housing and household equipment
division of BHNHE, was building,
and to visit her home as well.
The students heard talks on
menu planning, saw pictures of
meat slides. learned about differ
ent grades of meat, and learned
what stamps to look for on meat.
They also heard about clothing
and its selection from DR.. Dorothy
Lyle, of the National Institute of
Cleaners and DyerS in Silver
Spring, who discussed care of
clothing and what was involved in
dry cleaning clothes. She also
talked about the composition and
characteristics of the new syn
thetic fabrics.
