Benson Junks Plan 10 Buy
Hay and Pasture Seeds

Secretary Of Agriculture Ben
son, starting to chip away at
Democratic farm programs, has
junked a Government program
to buy~hay and pasture seeds to
keep prices up.
Secretary Benson said supplies
of seeds will be adequate this fall
and any continuation of Gov
ernment buying would "invite
needless stock-piling."
The Agriculture Department
also announced that it will sell
at cut rates the hay and pasture
seeds it already owns.

GR91 THE TRADERS HORN
BY Yves BOXER. Executive Director Rockville Boord of Trade

All right, we promise-this is
the last reference to the outing
until next year when the second
annual Rockville Board of Trade
outing comes up, but we do want
to add just little to the news re-
port of the affair which appears
elsewhere in this issue.
In the first place we want to
thank Colonel A. R. Lofstrand and
Senator A. R. Lofstrand, Jr. for
their kindness in permitting the
use of beautiful Southlawn Farm
for the outing. 1t has an ideal set
ting, close to home, and with all
the facilities that make an outing
a success. The swimming pool
alone will long be remembered by
many of those present that hot
afternoon.
Apprecia ion is also due
members of the outing commit
tee under the Craftsmanship of Van
F. Lippard. Outstanding work was
done by Mrs. Irene Young and
Mrs. Elizabeth Talon, who secured
the prizes and who also prepared
and served the food which made
the food stand such popular spot.
They were ably assisted by Mrs.
Mildred johnson and Mrs. Harry
Miles.
Over on the game side Dave
Belts, Mort Hayes, Wick Brad
shaw, Cliff Veirs, Clitus Bour-
deaux, and Jack MARYLAND did an
outstanding job. Marvin Simmons

Sgt. Dewey E. Cannaday, Jr.,

and j. E. Fillmore did an excellent
job of gate-keeping. Dave Car
rasco kept the sports program run
ming smoothly and efficiently. Our
thanks to Mrs. Bill Hefin for her
fine work on the sound truck and
to Bill for providing and setting
up the equipment and permitting
its use before the event, publiciz-
ing the outing.
1t was a grand affair, and ac-
cording to all reports received, the
500 or so folks who were there
enjoyed it immensely. At this, our
first annual outing, we were CROP
ing for a successful formula for
putting such an affair across, and
we believe that, with certain
changes, we have found it, and
that based on our experience this
year, next years outing will be
even more successful.
Here is new service that your
Board of Trade plans for Rock
vile organizations and groups. In
setting up any event, be it an out
ing, supper, a dance, a dramatic
presentation, or even just a meet
ing, the matter of selecting the
date so as to. avoid conflict with
other events is always a problem.
To overcome this situation the
Rockville Board of Trade is setting
up clearing house for dates.
This is the way it will work.
We will ask all organizations and
groups in Rockville to notify the

jury was set for Monday, May Is,
by Judge Moran B. jenkins.
City Solicitor John Romey said
that he would learn at the prehmin-
ary hearing when the case would go
before the jury. He said that he was
confident that an early date would
be set and that the case should be of
short duration, probably only a day
or two. In fact, seating of jury
may require almost as much time as
will be required in hearing the case
and reaching a decision.
In the court procedure, Romey said
that he expects the case will be large
ly a matter of statutory proceedings
to determine the amount of money to
be paid Motter for damages to his
farm in constructing the intercepting
sewer.
Appropriation of the land for the
sewer right-of-way was effected in an
ordinance passed last month by
municipal council, and the only point
of question expected in the court
hearing will be the cost of damages
incurred in the work on the farm.
