Traffic Control Needed

Rockville citizens have right to expect the county
ponce 10 provide traffic control when the fire sounds
Either the county or the city should station policeman
at the Perry Street intersection hold back civilian traffic
While fremen hurrying to the rehouse policeman
can wave traffic to the curb around the corner to clear
the intersection for the firemen
Presence of the policeman will have salutary effect
upon the whole situation.
If the county police department cannot provide this
protection we are the sherfs office which has the
primary duty of law enforcement under the Constitution
would be willing to provide the service
Last Monday city policeman, a county motorcycle po
ceman and patrol saked their curiosity by going to
the rehouse to find out the for the siren but not
made any attempt to control traffic this dangerous
ner policeman has appeared the practically every
time the siren has sounded but far them have
made any effort to direct traffic and protect citizens
We suggest that Director of Safety Miller either make
provision for police protection request aid from the sheriff

Dear Sir:
May l take this opportunity to
express my appreciation of your
recent editorials on the Rockville
Fire Department?
believe that everyone appre-
ciates the service rendered by
volunteer firemen everywhere, and
they are deserving of full recog
milton for this service, but their
position does not set them apart
as persons who do not have an
obligation of good citizenship the
same as the rest of us.
Your editorials express accu-
rately and fairly the position of
many residents of this community
who fail to see sound reasoning
in the use of unnecessary speed
in the preservation of property
where life is jeopardized. Even if
life were endangered by fire,
would that warrant the possible
killing of several persons in the
process of carrying out an errand
of mercy?
You have reached the heart of
the matter when you place the
blame on the police. They are
more to be censured than the fire
men, because it is their. duty to
supervise traffic - including the
car being driven by a fireman re-
spending to a fire call.
AS newspaperman of long ex-
perence, l know that it took cour-
age to write the editorials, because
your motives might have been
misunderstood. There are places
where volunteer fire companies are
sacrosant.
The real answer to the problem
is paid fire department, and the
sooner the better.
Yours sincerely,
George A. Crago.

To the Editor:
The other day in his press con-
ference President Eisenhower made
the observation that, with taxes
what they are, we are rapidly
approaching the time when it will
be difficult to get the best men
to enter and remain in govern
ment unless they have independent
financial means. He was saying
he believed III a t government
salaries should be raised so that
the best-qualified people, poor or
rich, could enter and stay in pub
lie life.
The American Bar Association
agrees emphatically with that
view. The Association believes it
is false economy-and dangerous
to the country's future-if salaries
are not realistic enough to attract
the wisest and ablest men to as
sumo the immense responsibilities
of government.
Furthermore, we believe it
would be entirely consistent with
the Presidents program of govern
ment economy if the Congress were
to enact, at this session, the pend
ing bill Is. 1863 to increase by
$4,000 per year the salaries of

aPrompt and effective action by
all departments of the city gov
eminent pl the cooperation of
residents of Rockville have averted
what might have been a serious
situation in Rockville. (See story
ON page one). City crews worked
throughout the night on, Saturday
and Sunday. City and county
police patrolled throughout the en-
tire city seeking violations of the
new ordinance. 1t is a tribute to
the citizens of Rockville that only
a few violations were found and
that these were due to lack of
knowledge of the ordinance. In
every case where violators were
warned they Immediately complied
with the terms of the law.
Rockville is not a one in its
water troubles, and the difficult
ties experienced by other COM
munities have been more serious
than ours.
A tribute TO the good judgment
Of the Board of Trades Solicita-
tions Committee was received in
the mail recently. Some time ago
a request for Board of Trade APP
proval of solicitation for funds
in Rockville was evaluated and
turned down by the Solicitations
Committee. The offices of the or
ganizstion making the request
were located in Washington. When
approval was denied this organize
tion a letter notifying them Of the
fact was sent 20 the Washington
address. After about two weeks,
the letter came back stamped by
the Post Office "Moved-Left No
Address. We think this incident
speaks for itself and indicates that
the Solicitations Committee acted
wisely in turning down this re-
quest.

Perrys action threw the field
wide open and Rev. Raymond Hen
derson candidate for vice president
on the slate Immediately announced
for the top post of president IN
stead. The four men. Perry, jack
son, Henderson and Austin led the
pack until still bigger sensation
broke two weeks ago.
President Jemison at state meet
ings of Baptists held at Jackson,
Miss, and Mobile. Ala, repeatedly
announced he was not going to re-
tire. Just what this can mean, no
one knows. Some have felt it was
technique to discourage candi-
dates right up to the convention
time, to give Perry the advantage
which an announcement at that
time might produce Others have
felt that since most MIC presidents
have died in harness, perhaps Rev
Jemison wishes to follow suit.
The scramble for first place has
thrown into obscurity the struggle
to secure the now executive secre-
taryship. This post which was
created at the last convention in
Chicago is open to either a min
lister on a layman. 1t was expected
to develop into the most powerful
spot in the whole denomination
because the secretary would con-
troll the finances of the various
boards. Some predicted that in a
few years the secretary would
dominate and select the president.
The free for all becomes even
more confusing. If Jemison runs
and has the support of the South
can any of the nOrtherners beat
him? At the moment there are
no important candidates from the
South although the name of Rev.

NOTES FROM YOUR } EXTENSION SERVICE
TO HOME BANNERS
By MarYlou Rideout

The Extension Service is glad to test gratis, the accuracy of the guage of your pressure canner. This test requires the kettle plus the whole lid. If the agent is in the office, the guage can be test ed within a short time, or may be left and picked up in a day or two.
 A steam pressure canner is an investment that deserves the kind of care that will make it last. Proper canners also promote safety, and a well taken-care-of canner turns out more satisfactor- fly a home canned product.
 Here are a few reminders, as you get your canner for this sea- sons use.
 1. The dial typs guage, new or old, should be checked for ac- curacy once a year, also during the season if canner is used a great deal.
 2. Wash canner thoroughly be- fore using it and before storing it. Dried food, dirt and hard water scale on the edges of either ket- tie or cover will cause steam leaks. Use whiting and water, if securing is needed Don't use strong soap on aluminium or heavy duty securing powder on any type canner.
 33. When washing, never inn merse lid in water.
 4. If canner has a rubber gas ket, keep it clean and free. If the rubber in a removable gas ket shrinks, stretch it carefully till it fits the rim. Some types of rubber gaskets may be turned upside down when they no long CT give perfect seal in original position. If the gasket in use won't make a perfect seal, get a new one.
 5. Make sure openings to pet cock, valve and pressure guage are clean. If openings are clogged during canning, all air may not be driven out in the time for venting, or the safety valve may fail to work when pressure be- comes too high. The openings may be cleaned by drawing string, narrow strip of cloth, or pipe cleaner through them.
 6. Petcock and valve should

Henry DeJohn reported to the U. s. Commissioner this week that his home, located one mile above Lucky Shot Mine in the Little Susitna area, had been entered sometime during the past month and that many items were taken.
 Among things missing was a 20-gauge shot gun of either Iver- Johnson or Harington-Richard- son make. Also 22-single-shot rifle; a miners compass in it's case; tools, bedding and dishes.
 DeJohn said this week that he has lived in that area for about 20 years and that this is the first time he has ever been troubled. No apparent damage was done to his property, he reported.

be removed occasionally and soaked in vinegar for a short time. If the safety valve is ball. and-socket type, clean it after each use. Occasionally clean the ball and socket into which it fits with silver polish.
 7. And this is important. After canning season is over, be sure canner is clean before storing it. Wash the kettle in hot sudsy water and wipe off lid with soapy cloth, then with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
 8. Smear the threads of screw locks or thumb nuts with a thin film of any salt free oil to pre- vent rust. Place crumpled news papers inside upside down so the air can get into the kettle and keep it sweet-smelling through out the storage period.
 Proper canner care results in care-free canning days ahead.
