ARLINGTON Schools

I am tired Of the almost
weekly hassles about report
cards, investigations. attacks
and counterattacks circulate
ing around the Arlington pub
lie schools. We in Arlington
are wasting time and energy
and we are evading the basic

We need to channel all our
efforts into supporting. not

these trying and confusing
times. We must assure our
school personnel that they
will be paid throughout the

that we intend to see that
schools will be open for them
to teach in.

Mr.. Anfuso has also the right
to seek.
There is no doubt that the
interest Of q great nation is
to find a solution for Middle

the question of Israel. But
exchanging mortar shots
does not solve the question
and is far from the ideal

- New Symbol for Security:
THE THAT LOOKS OUT FoRU
Here's why this new symbol has been adopted:

The independent insurance agent for a
long, long time has performed a useful
service in the protection of homes and
businesses against damage to property,
liability for damage or injury to others,
and against loss of all kinds. Consequently.
the words insurance agent have become
SO familiar they now are commonly used
to mean almost every type of insurance
seller-of which there are many.
For the information of the public, and
professional pride, those insurance agents
who are members of local associations and
the National Association of Insurance
Agents as well, have adopted this sign by
which you can tell them from all others.
Where you see it you can get auto, fire
and general insurance, plus good insur-
ance agency service +. at the standard
rates approved by the appropriate rating
bureaus.

Allegany Countian
Is Indicted Here

A former Cumberlander was in
dicted by the September grand
jury here on charge of receiving
stolen goods-his admitted share
OF safecracking job he said he
helped set up.
w. Ewald Ruehl had the warrant
served on him last Thursday by
Baltimore county police at his
place of employment in the Mary
land Reformatory for Males.
States Attorney S. r. Pagen-
hardt said Ruehl is charged with
receiving $500 as his share in
the safecracking and burglary of
a total of $17,5OO from the home of
Lee A. Green in LaVale, in Octo-
Der 1919.
Details of Ruehls part in the
conspiracy came to light April "a,
1857 in Baltimore County Circuit
Court.
Green had sued Ruehl in that
court for the $500 share of the
loot and Judge John E Raine, Jr.,
on April rs, 1857, issued a lengthy
opinion in which he mentioned
Ruehrs confession given to Allie
gany County authorities
The statement showed how Ruehl
had allowed a man named Paul
and two other men, one apparently
a safecracker with 50-year rec
ord, to occupy his cabin at Deep
Creek Lake. Judge Raine noted
that Ruehl admitted knowing the
burglary was to take place, and
after the safecracking said he
found $500 in $10O bills in a jar
in the cottage.
Two men, Harold Paul Odum
and James Golden were picked
up by the FBI in Baltimore after
Ruehl had signed the confession
but county authorities were forced
to set them free after stating there
was insufficient evidence to charge
them

Number of Oak Wilt
Areas Discovered

An air reconnaissance over the
four WeSternmost counties in the
state has disclosed that % wood
land areas are infected with oak
wilt.
William H. Johnson, district for
ester, said the areas extended from
Savage River dam section in this
county to Clear Spring area in
Washington county.
TWenty-three of the infected
areas have been eradicated Dy a
forestry crew. Five of the infected
areas have been set up as a study
plot for five years investigation
into the spread of the disease. 1t
is hoped to prove or disprove the
merits of respective control meas
ures now used by agencies in
Maryland. Pennsylvania and West
Virginia.
In Maryland the practice has
been to cut the infected trees and
treat the logs with insecticides and
fungicides. the premise being that
this would prevent the formation
of spores of fungalmats dispensing
spores from the wood.
In addition all oak trees within
so feet of infection have been either
cut or girdled and poisoned to pre-
vent spread of disease by root
gratis. For the most part control
measures have been successful in
preventing immediate spread. In
West Virginia only infected trees
are eradicated.
