Maryland has been selected by the U. S. Blu
reau of Employment Security as the State in
which to test new training program designed
to provide improved services to the nations
growing numbers Of older workers.
Six high-ranking BES officials including
the Chief of the Division of Counseng Selective
Placement and Testing this week are making
test-run of the newly developed training program
by instructing the staff of the Maryland Depart
ment of Employment Security in fve-day series
of classes.
The Federal officials are using the sample
instruction to make specific measurements of the
effectiveness of the training course they. have
developed
Upon completion of these pilot classes, they
will return to Washington to put the final touches
to the written text of the course which will then
be printed and distributed for use in training
personnel in the 1900 offices of the u. S. En-
ployment Service in So states and territories
Serving as the guinea pigs in the develop
ment of these fundamental training aids for the
increasingly important Older Worker Program
are number of the Maryland Departments top
division heads and representatives of all 10 Of its
local offices around the State, including several
of its office managers.
The Maryland Department, according to Rob-
ert B. Kimble, Executive Director, plans to follow
up the training program by arranging meeting
with personnel representatives of business and in
dustry to explore the possibility of a joint APP
proach to Older Worker job placement pro-
gram.
I'VE have agreed to undertake the task of
developing such a program" Mr.. Kimble said

Now is The Time!

We believe it is high time and past time
for the Hatfieds and the McCoys in the Rock

get down to the business of setting up and sup.

overall good of the business section of the County
Seat
Failure to do so-and promptly-will be eco.
nomic suicide to those businesses which are pres.
emily established in the center Of town. Large,
modern shopping centers with their many ad.
vantages are springing up rapidly in neghbor-
hoods well removed from the downtown area
Each and all of these viii pull many dollars away
from the main business district. The "fiddling

to work for the whole is the answer. If such an
organization be salvaged from the heaving

must bear this in mind:
Rockville has had innumerabe organizations,
chambers of commerce and a Board of Trade
all of which have withered on the vine because,
after first blush, enthusiasm waned and finan-
cial support was practically nonexistent.
There isn't business in prosperous Rockville
which cannot afford some financial support for
an organization which is working in its behalf.

AS crops are harvested, get rid of old pea and

AS the old crops come out start new ones.
Apply two pounds of complete fertilizer tsuch as

We Regret

We regret the apparent passing of the old
fashioned Fourth OF July'-ihe big day when
the bands played politicians made speeches. flags
flew the bunting waved in the breeze the cannon
crackers cracked and Nom made ice cream on
the back porch.
There something strictly American
about the old holiday and through il you somehow
had the feeling that this was big, strong coun.
try fun of hardy rugged individuals who were
worthy of their progenitorS.
The sophisticated approach and the apathy
which presently exist so far as our most inn
portant national holiday is concerned is worse
than deplorable-it's sad.
Flag waving no longer is a virtue. Rugged
American indivdualisn is for the birds. Patriot
ism the old Fourth OF July kind is diluted by the
broader outlook"
We think what this country reeds is not a
good five cent cigar but good dose of Old
Fashioned Fourth of July With bells ringing and
kids shouting, and fire crackers waking you at
crack of dawn and a sudder. injection of the Kind
of spirit that brought this country from nothing

AIRS Without Wings
False Alarm
Set Off By
Flying Ants

Ants have been flying into the
University of Maryland Ento-
mology Department from all di-
rections the past ten days from
Baltimore, Montgomery and
Prince Georges counties and the
Eastern Shore. Flying through
the mail, that is, from alarmed
house-keepers who fear they are
termites.
The University entomologists
reply: don't worry, the insects
are just pavement ants, so-called
because they nest under the
edges of sidewalks and stones.
They are of medium size, ~
inch long with wings, and dark
brown in color. Many ants will
be found without wings.
Many correspondents confuse
the pavement ants with ter
mites, the entomologists report.
But when examined closely, the
two are not alike.
Pavement ants gnaw on the
roots of vegetables and steal
plant seeds but do not injure
buildings. Don't be concerned if
pavement ants have worked into
your house, the insect special
lists say. They will disappear
soon. Out Of doors. they may
be killed with chlordane in wa.
ter, applied with a paint brush
or poured into the nest. Grand.

No one in the House successfully defended the

cases and precedents cited, no sound evidence was
produced that justified denial Of trial by jury to

from Brownsville. Tex. to Nam

The network will supplement

many of the gaps In the hurri-
cane warning system. Thirty
six such volunteer stations al
ready are in operation. with
another 40 or more in the plan
ming or installation stage.
When all of them are In
operation. the Weather Bureau
will have an observation post
every rs miles along the Gulf

A Weather Bureau spokes-
