l(P.-A jury's decision that Ellis

bitter courtroom reaction last

A report to the Public Welfare
Advisory Council yesterday sug-
'gested that it may be better to
offer aid to a needy family in
stead of a child-so that the
family can provide the child
with a more stable and satisfac-
tory family life.
The report, drawn up by the
Social Service School at Catho-
lie University and the Welfare
Department. was launched to
follow up some 1854 children,
members of l04 District families,
who lost relief in 1855 when
husbands or acting husbands
showed up at home. A family

be absent, incapacitated or de-

QucStlOHS RdlSeu
The report asked: Does this
legislative requirement regard
ing absence of the parent in
itself weaken family life? Are
there cases where the father
absents himself so that his fam
lily may be eligible for ADO
which may afford more security
than he is able to provide?"
Also, the report asked: Are
we solving the problem of the
child's dependency needs Cboth
economic and emotional by
the child the recipient
of aid when it is the family
which is in financial distress?"
These questions were raised by
findings of the survey which
showed:

relationship between the mother.

Repairing Crossing

A letter to H. E. Simpson, presi-
dent of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad by Charles L. Briner, sec
rotary of the Mt. Top Chamber of
Commerce, concerning the condi-
ton of the Second street crossing
in Oakland has brought swift re
suits.
On August Is, Mr.. Briner wrote:
we have an unfortunate situation
in Oakland that previous repairs
have failed to rectify. The Railroad
crossing on Second street is and
has been one of our rough spots in
town. All repairing in the past
never changed the type of crossing
and after a few months of steady
wear and tear it becomes as bad as
before.
Il have been elsewhere where
steel rails constitute the inner and
outer parts of crossings. Cannot
this be done here?
The holes in the crossing now
constitute a hazard to drivers and
the footpath a definite hazard to
children and groWnups alike. Most
anyone could very easily catch his
foot between the openings.

Acreage Program

The Acreage Reserve" part Of
tho Soil Bank program for 1857 IS
now ready. according to state
mcnt released by II Robert Dewitt,
County ASC Committee Chairman.
Sigu-up of farmers in this part of
the program will begin i'm this
county on September +. and will
continue through September p. if

stated that the Soil Bank Program
consists of 'yo parts, tha Acreage

only the Acreage Reserve part of
the program is now ready Sign-up
in the Conservation Reserve proba-
bly, will begin later in September.
The Acreage Reserve part of the
program i'm Garrett County will APP
ply only to wheat acreage because
wheat is the only one of the basic
farm commodities that is under
acreage allotments in this county.
Under this part Of the program any
farmer who has harvested wheat
ON his farm in 1854. 1855 or 1856,
and has been assigned a wheat
acreage allotment, may participate
i'm the program and receive a cash
payment for removing all or part of
the permitted wheat acreage from
production. To be eligible for a
payment the wheat grower must
set aside a tract of land which will
be designated as the Acreage Re
serve and he will not be permitted
to harvest any crop whatever from
this land nor craze the land during
the calendar year 1857. In this
county all wheat growers will be
permitted to put their entire al
lotted acreage into the Acreage Re
SNlNN II lilCg NlSils IlONCNCls AilGS
may not put less than 3 acres into
the reserve unless their wheat al
lotment is less than acres. The
land designated as the Acreage
Reserve must be land on which
wheat was grown at some time
in the past and which is now
suitable for the production Of
wheat Payments under this part
of the program will run from
about $50 to S31 per acre depending
upon the normal wheat yield estab-
lished for the farm. There are about
500 farmers in this county who have
been assigned wheat allotments and
who will be eligible to participate
in this program. More detailed in
formation is being mailed to these
farmers this week by the County
