ANNAPOLIS, May 20.-Gov.
Tawes Of Maryland today said
sit is shameful and intolerable
that in 1860 there should be
children in the United States
suffering from malnutrition"
and areas where family incomes
are so low that children can't
go to school because of lack of
clothes and shoes"
The Governor opened a seven
State conference here to work
out a regional approach to the
unemployment problem in the
Appalachian Mountains region.
Gov. Tawes, who called the
meeting, urged that the States
"join together to make this area
a contributor to the national
wealth rather than a recipient
of inadequate and demoralizing
public assistance"
100000 Jobs Needed
A report prepared by a con-
Isulting firm for the Maryland
Department of Economic De-
velopment said that 500, 900 ad-
ditional jobs are required in the
130, ,000-square-mile area to put
the unemployed back to work.
The report said another 500,-
900 jobs are needed to raise the
income level to the United
States average, and another
$50 900 new jobs will be needed
within the next 10 years.
Attending the conference are
Gov. Underwood of West Vir-
ginia, Gov. Combs of Kentucky,
and representatives of the Gov
ernors of Pennsylvania, New
York, Virginia and North Caro-
lima.
Gov. Tawes said that ''it is
shameful that entire families

Seeds" said Mr.. Simmons. And that is besides
the $5 l spent myself for seeds. I'll tell you if

Children's play equipment was given the
town by county resident. Swings and seesaws
have been put up in the park and the kids
swarm in every day after school. And down by
the red post office and general store which.
incidentally, sells groceries at or below chain
store prices there is a basketball court for
the older children.
There is a neat white Presbyterian church
in which two ministers alternate in holding
services. Last summer, the church had a stu
dent minister from Korea -Syngman Rhee by
name, but no relation to the former president

of South Korea When Mr.. Rhee finished his
work at Bacova, the congregation took up a
collection to further his college education.
Bacova's water comes from a series of
mountain springs and is pumped into reser-
voir. A small sewage disposal plant is outside
the town proper
The old mill where barrel slaves once were
made was not included in the purchase of
the village, and it is now used by farmer as
barn. But Mr.. Hirsh and Mr.. Solomon hope
to attract some small industry there.
Some of the Bacova residents work for the
Homestead, Bath COunty's principal industry
Others are selfemployed and work at logging
or cutting pulp wood in the mountains.
"A small industry would take up the slack"
Mr.. Solomon pointed out But we don't want
just anything 1t should fit in with our economy
and not spoil our county"
And when you talk to Bacova residents,
you get the idea that they are with the idea all
the way.
