After 100 Years

James j. Hill, who built Great Northern through TN.
populated country, knew there were still bigger jobs
ahead when his construction gangs completed in
1893 the railways transcontinental line from ST. Paul
to Seattle.
One job was settlement of the land through which
the railway ran; the other was to improve tracks,
engines, cars-every single facility necessary to pro-
viding freight and passenger services to the people
who already lived and those who were to settle in the
country along Great Northern. MIR. Hill recognized
that both tasks would be never-ending responsibilities
if development of the land and the railway he built
through it were to be successful, enduring ventures.
A century has turned since the lad destined to be
the most constructive transportation leader Of his
time arrived in St. Paul, then a frontier settlement.
Today, nearly So years after the railway Mr.. Hill
envisioned became a reality, the growth of the great
Northwest region they still call his empire is progress
ing with dramatic vigor and promise. And, matching
the vitality of the land and its people is the
Great Northern Railway, proud of its tradition In
the development of the country it serves.

The suggestion comes from
Walter L. Green. Hyattsville

Senator Kefauver for his states
manship in withdrawing from
the Democratic presidential race
in the interest of party unison"
Mr.. Green greeted the Senator
as Mr.. Vice President"
Then he announced that his
young son. Carlton, was sending
his Davy Crockett hat to the
Democratic National Committee
in Chicago as a reminder that
Senator Kefauver. who used to
campaign in a coonskin hat.
would make a good running mate
for Mr.. Stevenson.
Mr.. Green urged other youth
tul kefauver supporters to do
likewise.

Maryland Bill to Abolish
Presidential Primary Due

BALTIMORE, Aug. 2 (P.-
The Maryland Legislature will
be asked next January to do
away with primary for presi-
dental hopefuls.
Delegate Edward j. McNeal, a
Baltimore legislator, announced
his intention today in the wake
of the withdrawal of Senator
Kefauver, Democrat of Tennes-
see. as a potential nominee. Mr.
McNeal said Senator Kefauver's
withdrawal didn't influence his
proposal, but points up the
limitations of our presidential
primary system"
Senator Kefauver filed in the
Maryland Democratic primary
and drew 1868 votes. The
other choice. which received
0o.54z VOTES, was an unrestricted
delegation to the national con-
vention.
So Maryland's Democratic del
egation was bound by law to
cast its 18 votes for Senator
Kefauver on the first ballot
After that. it was proposed to
stick with him "as long as in
their conscientious judgment
there is any possibility" of his
winning the nomination.
Senator Kefauver's withdrawal
left the Maryland Democrats
free to vote for whom they
please at Chicago.

County Asked
For zOning
Qualification
By a star sian Correspondent


LEESBURG, Va, Aug. 2.-The
Loudoun County Board of Su-
pervisors has asked the Planning
Commission to prepare an
amendment clarifying the county
coming ordinance for considera-
ton at the boards meeting
Monday.
Specifically, the board re-
quested an amendment defining
heavy industry. The request YVES
made after Circuit Court Judge
Rayner v. Snead last week ruled
that the ordinance did not class
ify a stone quarry as a heavy
industry.
Judge Snead ruled that the
County Board of Zoning Appeals
had acted as a legislative, and
not an administrative, body in
refusing permit to Clarence A.
Blossom for stone quarry on
an 18-acre tract near Route SO,
1la miles from the Fairfax
County line.
He said the ordinance specifi-
cally listed nine types of heavy
industry, but failed to include
"a stone quarry. He ruled that
no permit was necessary fol any
industry not specifically named
in the law
The judge also overruled de-
murrers from rs residents of the
area who opposed the proposed
quarry.
The quarry has been leased to
Ralph E. Mills g. German, Inc,
quarry operators of Flemings-
burg. KY.

LYMAN A. FRESHMAN, defense

He said the society is a private

BALTIMORE, Aug. 2 (P.-A
State lawyer declared in court
yesterday that DR.. Robert H.
Reddick enabled 1.-The greatest
gang of carpet-bagger medical
men in the world" to operate in
Maryland.
Norman P. Ramsey. deputy at
torney general, made the asser-
ton in asking Circuit Judge Jo-
seph r. Byrnest to dissolve a
homeopathic board of medical
examiners formed by DR.. Red
dick.
AS the To-day case ended, he
asked the court to rule that the
legal board is one headed by DR.
Julius Chepko of Westminster.
This board split with DR.. Reddick
over whether certain applicants
were qualified to take the exami-
nations leading to licenses to
practice medicine and surgery in
Maryland.
Charges "One- Man Bureau"
Mr.. Ramsey accused DR.. Red
dick, chief psychiatrist at East
ern Shore State Hospital in
Cambridge, of setting himself
up as a "one-man licensing bu-
reau" after his split with the
Chepko board.
The deputy attorney general
said DR.. Reddick persisted in
licensing graduates of Fremont
College and Western Medical
School, both in California, after
the State-recognized board re-
fused to accept these schools
as qualified.
The State also contended that
the only accrediting agency
which recognized Fremont Col
lege was one founded by the COL

w. Hough.

Derry told The Star. I'VE could
build our own sewage disposal
plant or build a five-mile main
to connect with facilities of the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission at Gaithersburg.
"The Maryland Board of
Health advised us to build the
main. since it feared that our
own disposal plant would pour
affluent into the Potomac"
Mr.. Derry said Acc repre-
Sentatives would be willing to
sit down with representatives of
other agencies to plan for sewer
facilities in the Upper Mont
gomery area where it is building
its new headquarters. Such a
conference was suggested in the
