Game Laws and Marvin Calls
Time Questions Elected Head
Are Discussed of Farm Group

Farm Bureau members and their
wives not only ate hearty turkey
dinners and elected officers and
directors, but also acted on two
amendments and three resolutions.
The amendments concern d
membership and officers, while
the resolutions concerned game
laws, tampering with standard
time, and financial responsibility
of commission auctions.
All items were approved by the
members. The resolutions will be
presented to the State Farm Blu
reau convention in January, and if
approved by the State delegates
they will then be presented as bills
at the next session of the State
Legislature.
The one constitutional amend
mcnt allows membership to in
clude, besides persons who own on
operate farms or whose annual
occupation is farming, other per
sons interested in the promotion
of agriculture in the county. 1t al
so called for honorary membership
upon a person taking an active in
terest in farming upon approval
of the board if directors.
But it limited those who might
hold office in the bureau or serve
as delegates to the state meeting,
to those who are actively engaged
in farming or have the majority Of
their income from farming,
No person may serve more than
three consecutive years as presi-
dent of the organization, the new
amendment states.
The Resolutions
The three resolutions contained
the following;
/. We believe commission auc-
ton and other handlers of farmers
livestock products should be fl
nancially responsible for the farm
ers' products and money and
should be bonded to protect their
money We believe that any
one buying who does not carry
bond, should pay with cash or with
certified check.
,. We believe that game laws of
Maryland should not be changed
to allow a special season for bow
and arrow deer hunting in Garrett
county; that the resident and non
resident license to hunt should re-
main the same as now, or if raised,
be raised proportionately, and de-
clare ourselves against having a
resident and statewide license one
and the same; we agree to the
later squirrel season in Garrett
county to protect the late filters,
but believe the law should be
amended so the Western county
seasons would open on the same
day.
3. We believe a state law should
be enacted to prevent people from
tampcring with standard time. We
further believe industrial people
could 90 to work and return earlier
without confusing other people by

The obvious solution seemed to be that
Harvey had put the poison into his own drink

believed this. Then it just wouldn't make

We HAD all arrived at the same time at the
house. The drinks and tumblers had been

As for Mark, standing little apart from
