County about the strangely act
ing foxes. The animals affected
by the disorder do not seem to
be afraid of human beings.
Mr.. Hough warned people con-
tacting foxes to avoid giving the
animals opportunity to bite. Nor
should they allow any saliva from
the fox's mouth to get on the
person or on livestock. he said.
Ernest A. Vaughn, director
Maryland Department of Game
and Inland Fisheries. said earlier
reports of rabies in the State
were exaggerated. He said only
in Cecil County, near the Penn
sylvania line, is rabies found at
this time among foxes.
The Maryland State Board of
Health believes some sick animals
died from distemper rather than
rabies, Mr. Vaughn declared.

Hyde, declared that "if by Nc
Carthyism you mean the technique
of the unfounded, unbiased smear,
I am opposed to that" Mr.. Hyde
said, many who cry Mccarthy

Mrs. Stella B. Werner, candi-

eased foxes and skunks in the

ease should be rabies. But off,

Prince Georges Fight
On Welfare Board
May Go 10 State

Dissolution of the beleagured
Prince Georges Welfare Board
through action of the county
commissioners appeared unlikely
today despite a grand jury rec
ommendation and pleas of civic
leaders.
Instead, the sizzling fight over
the boards suspension of it's di-

moved toward the State Employ
ment Commissioner-the only
official empowered to settle the
quarrel.
If it does go there, it will be
an old if not a welcome issue.
Three years ago the commissioner
heard arguments for and against
Miss Hendricks. He sent the case
back to the county.
At that time, the controversy
embodied such factors as dis
agreement between State and
county welfare boards, between
Miss Hendricks and officials of
both boards and pickering be-
tween Miss Hendricks and staff
workers.
Showdown Expected Monday.
The Welfare Board and Miss
Hendricks are scheduled for a
showdown meeting Monday. If
she does not resign by that time,
Chairman John w. Sharper has
said, the board will file formal
charges with the employment
commissioner.
Miss Hendicks was relieved of
duty March II and asked to re-
sign. She refused to quit and Of
fered to battle it out when she
and three board members ap-
peared before the county commits

sympathetic to Miss Hendricks,

cause the grand jury to spend a

only administrative questions.
Grand jurors, it was learned

they tossed it back to the commits

that the Welfare Board be
abolished.

Since August LIST your museum
has had a full time paid Curator
who assumes full charge, of mu-
scum activities, subject to the
approval of the Museum Com
mission.
Just what is a Curator, and
why do we need one in our mu-

Curator as one who is a trustee or
guardian Of property, or one who
has charge of a museum, which IS
the general idea most people have
concerning that Office. In the full
sense, and in your museum the
Curator creates all the displays
and does research on the history
and background of the material IN
the museum. In the case Of loans
Of exhibits it is his job to see that
the objects entrusted to his care
is in good shape. If not he makes
it SO. Thus he performs a service
Of great value to the loaner. In his
hands the object gets the best OF
care, is properly preserved and is
insured from theft, fire and hurri-
cane along with the rest OF the
contents Of the museum.
At present your museum has a
preponderance of Pref Columbian
Indian artifacts, the really fine
collection gathered by Folmer
Anderson and recently returned
to the island where it was all
found. What we are in need OF
now are more things of historic
value that will help to form in the
minds of museum visitors some
thing of the colorful background
of St. Croix. There must be much
of this material still on the island,
