The American Cancer Society
will provide films, pamphlets, post
ers and exhibits as we'll as expert
enced medical speakers for public
education programs whenever de-
sired, it was announced this week
by Mrs. Grover c. King, general
chairman, Of Mt. Lake Park.
Mrs King emphasized that the
American Cancer society educa-
ton program had just one purpose
to save lives.
She explained that one out of
every four Marylanders now living
will develop cancer sometime dur
ing their life. The lives of one
quarter of these will be saved by
medical treatment One half will
die because science docs not yet
have the tools to save them. The re-
naming quarter may die needless
ly because with present medical
knowledge they could be cured if
they were forearmed with the facts
about cancer that would send them

Temporary Flood
Gate To Be Built

Mayor Joseph Hincbaugh of Oak
land stated this week that he had
arranged for city workmcn to build
temporary flood gate that would
be placed on the culvert on Fourth
street that carries Wilson creek
through that area.
He said the high water of a week
or ten days ago again had the bust
ness people of Oakland worried
about the possibility of flood, and
he was of the opinion that the flood
gate would allow only certain
amount of flow through the town
and would back up the excess over
the sub-marginal land cast of
Fourth street
The temporary flood gate will
suffice until a headwall and screw
gates are available, it was pointed
out. The temporary flood gate is
being constructed Of two-inch lum-
Der and should be completed within
week.

Who Pays?

The question naturally arises this week as to who will
be responsible for paying for the services of Horace Whit
worth Jr Wesenport attorney who authorized by
majority action of the Board of Election Supervisors last
Thursday to be employed represent the said board in mat
ters pertaining to the acquisition of voting machines in the
county, William o. Treacy minority member of the board
voted against the authorization.
Regulations governing the Board of Supervisors of Elec
tons make it possible attorney to the Board and
price the years has been about the He gets
$500 per year. the members of the Board and the
clerk The Board last year officially named Walter W. Daw
son as its attorney There has been action taken
Mr. Dawson such.
The election laws state that money can be spent
than has been levied for salaries The Com
mssoners have levied 500 salaries all of which al
located to the five persons entitled to receive it.
1t would appear that the County Commissioners should
not be responsible for Mr. Whitworhs salary but it is
foregone conclusion that the members of the Board of
Supervisors William Gibson and Francis Sanders, will at
tempt to make The hiring of such extra attorney
may we'll conclude with expense item of $1,000
and it could be that the County Commissioners would be
forced to pay the bill.
If that pass to that the time would
then arrived for the people of the county to insist that
the Governor remove these two members of the Election
Board from office charge of misuse of the countys
funds They already shown disregard for the taxpayers
money by advocating that the most expensive voting
chimes be purchased although they sought bids to where
they could buy them the most economically
There is absolutely nothing happening at present that
calls for the hiring of additional attorney Seems like the
two members of the Election Board determined that
money is to spent than necessary if the courts do
