Almost all Panamanians will
tell you that the slim shape of
their country is their greatest
natural resource-and that they
ought to profit from it, just as
Arab countries profit from
their oil.
And they also will tell you
that the Canal Zone treaty was
imposed on them unfairly in
1903 and that it should be re-
vised completely.
These two national convic-
tions run counter to firm beliefs
of the United States Govern
ment. The opposing points of
view already have been trans
lated into several rock-throwing
incidents on the Canal Zone
borders, and more demonstra-
tions are expected the first
week in May.
Differences on Both Sides
American and Panamanian
officials are split on the best
way to handle the dispute. The
State Department suggests
some modest compromise. The
Panama Canal Company, for
all practical purposes an inde-
pendent Federal agency, rec
ommendS standing firm on the
existing contract with Panama.
Panama's first families"
who run the government, toyed
with violence last fall but now
counsel legal pressure. But the
rabble rousers, Panamanian,
Cuban. Egyptian and Commu-
mist say demonstrations have
paid of and urge more of the
same.
Most people concerned pre-
dict trouble ahead. Almost all
the military power is on the
side of the United States, of
course; but demonstrators and
saboteurs could interrupt use
of the vital canal, and anti
colonial" demonstrations could
undercut American policy else
where in the world. The Incl
dents already have hurt, Amer
ican diplomats say.
At stake are: Low-coSt pass
age from ocean to ocean by the
worlds shippers: Americas
standing as a moral leader in
the cold war; and contract.
NOn-PrOfit Service
This country and the Pana-
manians look at the canal in
different ways. The company
runs it, by American law, as a
non-profit service to the world.
About so per cent of the canal
traffic is American, but the
whole world benefits from low
tolls.
Tolls have not been raised
In half-century. And as long
as the company can remain in
the black and continue slowly

reserved land.
A total of 551 new contracts
became effective this year. Many
of these, Sturgis said, are old

this year to bring all eligible land
on a farm into the Reserve. More

Here's a New
Discovery That
Can Hell You!
By Sam Snead
IRON TIME TO TIME some of my
friends, or men and women to whom

friends, or men and women to whom
Il I've been giving golf lessons, have
bemoaned the fact that they could not
give up the smoking habit. 1t was usually
the first several days of withdrawal that
seemed to be so agonizing. Time and again
they would relapse and start smoking
again. was surprised that there did not
seem to be anything to help these friends
of mine.
Then quite recently heard about the
discovery of a remarkable new pill that is
helping people stop smoking painlessly
and easily thought it might be helpful
to some of my friends if investigated this
discovery to find out just how much it
really helped. think you will be interested
in what learned, too.
This little pill was discovered in rather
an unusual way. A research team of scien-
lists at Loyola University in Chicago were
studying gingivitis, an unpleasant inf1am-
alton of the gums. They wished to know
to what extent smoking contributed to
this condition. To find out they decided
that half the patients they were observing
should stop smoking. Immediately they
ran into difficulty. Their patients just
couldn't quit.
A ONCE all the energies of the research
IA team were centered on discovering
something that would help these patients
give up smoking After months of research,
after trying hundreds of combinations of
drugs, this little pill was the result. 1t had
long been known that drug called lobeline
sulphate would curb the desire to smoke.
However. its other effects were so unpleas-
ant that nobody wanted to take it. Work
ing with lobeline sulphate, these scientists
found two antacid ingredients which when
combined with lobeline not only elimin-
ated all its unpleasant side effects but in
creased its effectiveness. The result was
this harmless little white pill which, when
given to test patients in clinical investi-
CATION, helped out of to stop smoking
in days.
The way the pill works is wonderfully
simple. Lobeline sulphate is extracted
from the Lobelia plant which is sometimes

SAM SNEAD says: 81 recommend this pill
to anyone who wants to quit smoking"
called Indian Tobacco. 1t is first cOus-
in to nicotine, mimicking its action but is
not habit forming. 1t acts as substitute
for the nicotine in your system, and curbs
your desire for tobacco. 1t does not affect
the taste or make smoking unpleasant.
Sostartling were the first results obtained
with these little pills that further investi
CATION was carried on. They were tested on
hundreds and hundreds of patients. 1t was
found that they helped 83%-more than
out of 5-of all people who wanted to
stop smoking, to do so easily and pleas
antly in to days. just as important, it
was found that those who didn't stop COM
pletely had drastically cut down.
NATURALLY THE DISCOVERY of such an
" easy, effective antidote to smoking
caused tremendous stir in scientific cir
cles. 1t was reported in medical journals
and demand for it began coming from every
corner of the globe. Thousands of people
who needed to give up the cigarette habit,
yet had been unable to do so, saw new
hope. The Campana Corporation of
Batavia, Illinois, was chosen to market
these amazing pills. Today you can buy
them at any drug store in the United States
under the name of Bantron for only 1.25
a box They are also available in Canada.
Bantron has been proved SO safe when
taken as directed that it can actually be
bought without doctors prescription.
learned that one of the interesting
things about Bantron is the many doctors
who not only recommend it to their patients
but take it themselves. myself have given
Bantron to numbers of my friends who
felt the need TO stop or cut down. They
tell me that Bantron is easy and pleasant
to take-that it does not affect their taste
in any way.
From what l have learned and from
what these friends have told me, am
confident that anyone who wants to stop
or cut down smoking can do SO easily and
quickly with the help of Bantron; and that
they can do it without any of the pangs
and unpleasantness which so often accom-
pany tobacco withdrawal. Let me recon-
mend Bantron to you if you have smok-
ing problem.

Warns ofLow-Quality
Seeding Mixtures
For Lawns

A warning that many lawn-seed-
ing mixtures offered for sale in
this state may be of low quality
as judged by the proportion of
seeds of fine-textured grasses in
the mixture, has been sounded by
the Maryland Seed Inspection
Service here.
Most of the 155 samples of lawn
seeding mixtures analysed for
purity and termination, this spring,
contained too few seeds of Ken
lucky bluegrass and other fine
textured permanent grasses, they
state. The samples tested we're
picked up at various retail stores
throughout Maryland.
Many samples also contained
large proportions of coarse grasses
such as, ryegrass, tall fescues and

the different kinds of seed in
number of the mixtures was also
found to be too low for satisfac-
tory performance.
Well over half of the samples
contained less than Is percent
Kentucky bluegrass seed. Mary
land Extension Service recon-
mends at least SIS percent Kentucky
bluegrass for the entire state.
Actually good fine textured per-
manent lawn mixture should con-
tain at least so percent fine tex

Is Your Name
MOSSER?

Mosser, an old and honored sur
name, is principally of English,
German and Swiss origins. In its
English category it is said Mosser
was often the name applied in
medieval times to newcomers to
a community who came from Mos
ser, a place in Cumberland County,
England.
In its German aspect, Mosser is
the equivalent of Moser and admits
of a few derivatiOns. In one in
stance it is said that it stems from
the Old German "muat" and ''hari''
which mean respectively "valor'
and warrior. Another authority
states that it is obtained from the
German 'moos", which means
moss, and therefore was be-
slowed upon those whose homes
were on messy land.
1t is said also that the Mosser
and kindred families are of Swiss
origin, and that their prOgcnitor
in America was Hans Moser who
was among the early Mennonites
who came from Switzerland. He
arrived in Philadelphia in 1927 and
settled in Lancaster County, Penn
sylvania.
John Mosscr 1741-181O) and
Philip Mosser (173O-180O served re-
spectively as lieutenant and private
in the Northampton County, Penn
sylvania troops during the Revolu-
tionary War.
Jacob Mosscr was a school trus-
tee in the Accident District, and
George L. Mosser was school
trustee in the Ryan's Glade Dis
trict, Of Garrett County for the
year ending May 1882.
Benjamin d. Mosser (1S89-1948)

ly in financial circles as a member
of the New York Stock Exchange.

the mixtures fell far short of the
80 percent of persistent, fine tex
tured grasses recommended for
permanent lawns.
In contrast to the general pat
tern however," concluded the
Maryland seed specialist, there
were some samples that repre-
scented high quality mixtures, in
dicating that the person who reads
the label can obtain the type of
mixture he needs. 1t may take a
bit of searching, and the cost per
pound will be higher than for
mixtures of coarse non-persistent
grasses. This is offset by the fact
that seeds of good desirable
grasses are smaller than those of
poor grasses, therefore the seeds
of the better grass can be planted
at half the rate of those of poorer
grasses. Consequently, the cost of
seed for a good lawn is about the
same or even less than for seed
for a poor lawn.
