200 Fishing Boats Intercept Salmon
 Bound for Rivers

SEATTLE, R-A fleet of some 200 fishing boats is setting up a barrier of nets about 40 miles at sea and intercepting salmon bound for the inshore waters and rivers of the Pacific Northwest, the Times said yesterday.
 "The boats are using gill nets, some of them a mile long," the Times article reported.
 It added the fishing apparent ly can't be touched by any regu latory agency-state, national or international-under the present laws"
 A man "close to the situation" was quoted as saying "these boats are doing the same thing we've been criticizing the Japanese for doing"
 "The boats offshore are said to be about evenly divided between American and Canadian craft, with Americans possibly in the majority" the Times continued.
 Fish that would be protected by Washington, Canadian or in ternational law if they lived to enter regulated waters are being taken indiscriminately."
 Robert J. Schoettler, director of the Washington Dept. of Fish cries, said there is almost no limit to the length of nets that can be used. Some Japanese boats (used elsewhere) have nets five miles long.
 The article said the effect was being felt by the offshore trollers and quoted the fisherman as say ing "the amount of troll-caught salmon being brought in today is hardly enough to grease a skillet" |"

WASHINGTON. R - It. Gen. Roger M. Ramey, one of Ameri- ca's most famous air generals, has been stricken ill on the eve of new assignment and probably will retire soon.
 Ramey, formerly Fifth Air Force commander in Japan, re- turned to the United States last June to take charge of the Air Defense Command. He was to serve as deputy to Gen. Earle E. Partridge, chief of the Continen- tai Air Defense Command, at Colorado Springs.
 Ramey, 52, suffered heart at-

tack at Barksdale Air Force Base, La, before he could check in at his new post. He has told friends the heart attack means the end of his Air Force career.
 His sudden illness has delayed Air Force plans for reorganiza- tion of the Continental Air De- fense Command, which includes not only ADC's 2,000 jet fighters, but also the Army's expanding system of Nike antiaircraft de- lenses, and ships and aircraft assigned to a central warning and defense system.

Attorneys Seek Review Of Graham's Conviction As Plane Dynamiter

DENVER, R-A transcript of a hearing at which plane dyna- miter John Gilbert Graham, 24, said he did not wish to appeal his death sentence for murder was filed with the Colorado Su- preme Court Wednesday,
 It was submitted by lawyers seeking a review of Graham's conviction, which resulted from the explosion of an airliner in which his mother died.
 The reply brief again raised questions over a judges refusal to let Graham waive a jury trial and Denver jurisdiction in the case. It also questioned the valid ity of Graham's admission to the FBI that he placed a bomb aboard the plane in the luggage of his mother, Mrs. Daisie E. King.
 Graham was convicted of muu- der in the death of his mother, one of A persons who died last Nov. l when the plane exploded and crashed near Longmont, Colo.

FROM A LITTLE ACORN

Parcel post came into being at the beginning of 1913 It's safe bet that few people then had any idea of how greatly this institution would grow of the direction its development would take
 It was envisaged as limited service, handling small parcels primarily for farmers and rural residents not adequately served by private carriers Congress specified that the service should be sefsustaning that it should supplement and not supersede private riers.
 Parcel post has gone astray from these inents Dur ing much of it's life it has been at lossthe mulaed deficit for the 1926-52 period was in excess of $ billion It has and does unnecessarily compete with private carriers in fields and in where pr vate express service is perfectly adequate And it has made it constantly difficult for private carriers to stay inbusines That have is tribue to their resourcefulness and standards of service.

In the past year, I've learned few things about
people who apply for passports.
First Most of them are in hurry. They've planned
their trip. made their reservations, selected their ward
ROBE and then they discover they have valid pass
port! The result is an exhausting rush.
Second: By the time people get around to applying
for their passport many of them nervous excited or
tired. They've had plans 60 awry. their itinerary has
changed. They can't find their birth certificates or
naturalization papers.
General careleSSneSs in following directions also
causes trouble The passport pictures may not be the
right size may not be Identical The result is normal
resentment against having to correct errors in hurry
and this shows up in the new pictures
One recent passport applicant made three different
attempts to get favorable likeness and finally exploded
Il can't win guess just look that way" This was
not true; but the under such strain that no
picture would have done him justice.
The ingredients needed time, patience and CO.

QUESTION: Miss Alice n. POlVeT, Of New York City,
writes 'Why do people always look awful in their
passport phOfOer0pIs?" We asked the director Of the
Passport Office what she thought 0bOm This problem.
Here's her side of the story.
ANSWER: Talking about passports - and who isn't
these days Il find many people apoogizing for the
little picture pasted page four. Frankly, can't blame
them The Passport Office files undoubtedly contain
the greatest collection Of Photographic sour puSses in
the country.
The stream of such photographs pouring into our
office has made me wonder what impression these pic
lures make on foreign officials who check American
passports They must wonder, where are these famous
American beauties and handsome men we read about?
In my opinion, we are a good-looking people. The
American look is recognized the world over young

look full of lfe interest," curiosity and geniaty But
on the passports that come across my desk, see
strained, intense, dead-pan faces.
1t be readily assumed that most travel is antci
pated with reasonable amount Of pleasure. 1t puz
zles me, then, why so many people look angry when
they have their passport pictures taken.
Recently nationally known gentleman who is hand
some and distinguished looking sent in his application
for passport accompanied by the two required photo
graphs. But according to those pictures he was
bitter hard roughooking individual Had it not been
for his mustache, it would have been difficult to

recognize him from the photographs.
This year, with more than half mil
lion American citizens applying for pass
ports, I've been trying to discover why
SO many pictures are SO bad and what
we can do to correct the situation.

Ecrmorks OF HoodIums

The unWarranted attack upon a
young man in Oakland last Friday
evening by bunch of other young
men has all the earmarks of I'M
disciplined hoodlums, and the soon
er that kind Of action is nipped in
the bud, the better will be the repu-
tation Of the city of Oakland.
Not only did they appear like
hoodlums that night but at the
hearing before the Magistrate on
Wednesday, States Attorney S. r.

titude Of so WHAT
Information showed they were
still in a gangster mood early this
week when they were endeavoring
to find out who swore out the in
formation for their arrest.
Certainly some restrictions should
be placed on the individuals re-
sponsible before they get the idea
that such behavior is the normal
procedure and before they attempt
to do things more obnoxious and
possibly more dangerous.
There is certainly no place in
Oakland for such conduct. Stiff
penalties should be melted out if
there is no evidence of a change for
the better.

Southern Speaks
BY DOUGLAS SMITH

Southern Cagers Lose
In one of the most thrilling
games of this years basketball
season, the Highlanders were
downed by sharp shooting team
from Bruce High school OF West
ernport by the score Of 71-69 on
Tuesday evening. The Southern
quint was again headed by Fred
Colaw who racked up a total OF .
points. BIuce's basketball coach is
Mr.. Leonard Richie who was at
southern last year. Fridays game
with Valley High school Of Iona
coming will probably be another
thriller as the IIignlanders will be
out for revenge Of a previous loss
to the Same cam.
End Of Semester Near
As the last days Of the first Sc
mestar are marked off the calen-
dar, semester tests seem to be .he
rule in most classes. These neces-
sary evils will have a great bear
ing on report cards which will be
issued probably next week.
Clubs and Assemblies
A schedule has been set up by
which the Junior and Senior High
schools Aave san activity period
each week. This period is altelna,ed
between club periods and assembly
programs; that is, the Junior High
will have club meetings while the
Senior High viii be having an as
senlbly. The next week the Senior
High viii have club meetings while
the Junior High goes to assembly.
Students not belonging to a club
are admitted to study halls.
Interesting Sidelight
An interesting sidelight in the
March Of Dimes campaign in the
school came to light this week. In
Mr.. Elmer Crone's morning core
class one of the students offered
to contribute $1.O0 TO the March OF
Dimes if Mr.. Crone would cut off
a piece of his tie. Mr.. Crone agreed
to this and the sale was on, as
the remainder of the tie was sold
in pieces at 50 cents per. When the
smoke cleared, Mr.. Crone's class
had contributed in the vicinity of
$1,000, the highest amount col
lected from any one homeroom.

Commissioners Approve

Continued From Page One)
sioners took official action as fol-
lows
The beard met Monday in special
session. The letter was read from
the Board of Supervisors Of Elcc-
tons. A motion was made by Com
missioner Erwin A. Roth that the
County Commissioners accept and
approve the proposed request and
recommendation from the Board of
Election Supervisors and purchase
36 manualIy operated voting ma
chimes from the Automatic Voting
Machine company without further
delay. The motion failed for want
of a second.
Then it was moved by Commis-
sioner Aubrey Brenneman that the
County Commissioners purchase
the number of voting machines
recommended by the Board of Flee
ton Supervisors which is SO man
ually operated voting machines,
and that the low bid be accepted
which was submitted by the Shoup
Voting Machine corporation. The
motion was seconded by Commits
sioner II. D. Swartzenrtuber and
the motion carried, two to one.
No date was set for the actual
purchase.
The Shoup Voting Machine cor
poration submitted a low bid Of
$50,801.l2 for 36 machines while
the Automatic Voting Machine
company offered to supply the de-
vices for $53,064. These bids were
both for the electrically operated
machines. Manually operated ma
chimes were quoted at 500 less
per machine.
Chapter 701 of the Acts of 1855
provides that the Board OF Super
visors of Elections and the Board
of County Commissioner shall use
the powers conferred upon them by
Article SO of the Annotated Code
of Maryland for the acquisition of
voting machines and shall acquire
or have available for use the neces-
sary number of voting machines
by the General Election of 1856
The law also makes it necessary
that any recommendation by the
Election Supervisors must be APP
proved by the County Commission
ers before becoming effective.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1956-01-26

As one person remarked, who would
want to purchase an automobile in
th!s day and age that one would
have to crank However, we back up
the Commissioners in their stand
if that is the way they want it
and it does save the county some
money-S3.600 in fact. We can use
q lever as well as the next person,
il that becomes necessary.
We hope tnat the county appreci-
ates to the fullest extent the high
type of County Commissioners We
have, in the persons Of SWartzcn-
truber and Brenneman
