A fabulous success on records,
his souped-up grooming of Mack

by millions of teen-age fans.
Five years ago he was an un-

And seemingly, without miss

the pace he has set on the

His appearance Tuesday night

Recently DARN, reared in a

Oak Wilt Removed
In Western Counties

Employees of the State Depart
ment of Forests and Parks have
concluded their annual oak wilt
eradication program in Western
Maryland according to w. A. G.
Irwin, district forester.
Harry M. Hartman, assistant dis
trict forester was airbOrnc about
20 hours between July "a, when
the program started, and August
4. Foliage on trees affected by
oak wilt appears bronze red and
can be seen from the air readily
at this time of year. Mr.. Irwin
said affected trees we're found in
Garrett, Allegany and Washington
counties They are the only Mary
land counties in which oak wilt
has been found
After affected trees we're spotted
from the air ground crews led by
Alan Holt went to areas on
foot to remove diseased trees and
others nearby which appear af-
fected
There appears to be no major
change in oak wilt in this area.
Areas where trees were removed
last year were free of oak wilt.

Mahoney Announces
For Governors Post

George p. Mahoney, who has

candidate for Governor Of
Maryland.
Portions of Mr. Mahoney's an
nouncement follow:
Il shall be a candidate for Gov
ernor of Maryland from this day
forward until the contest is decided
by the people of the State.
1T is quite apparent that some
of the old leaders of both major
parties are trying to limit the
voters to a choice between the in
cumbent Democratic Governor
and his Republican predecessor.
Il do not believe that the peo-
pie of Maryland want to be caught
in a trap where they will have to
choose between Mr.. TaWcS and
Mr. McKcldin in the general cleo
ton next year.
Il pledge my total energy to the
proposition that the people of
Maryland shall have better
choice and that they shall have a
real opportunity to move forward
with new leadership.
Il sense a tremendous ground
swell of public opinion demanding
a fresh start and a thrust forward
demanding that the voice of the
citizenry rather than the voice of
the crony be heard in the Cover
nor's chambers.

James A. Cover, of FriendsVille

Der the occasion, but he does re-
member the time and place of the
picture.
Judging from the scrolls held by
several of the members, it was
perhaps an awards day in the Sun
day school. Mr.. Cover said tho
group was part of the congregation
of the Christian Church in Friends
vile, and the picture was taken
on February 26, 1922.
AT this time, he recalled tho
membership of the church was
nearly 200. The building is located
on First Avenue, which was still
an unpaved road. The pastor in
1922 was Rev. Henry Knoll, whG
acted as photographer.

on United States dollar-gold
reserves.
Dollars Used
He said the three agencies
agreed to shell out $15,37s,000
in United States currency in
connection with military and
economic aid. He said they
could have made payments in
Spanish currency owned by
the United States Government.
Because of his inquiries, Mr..
Weitzel said, the last $4.8 mil
lion of the Nays part in this
aid bill will be paid in Spanish
pesetas rather than in dollars.
Mr.. Weitzel and Controller
General Joseph c. Campbell
are the top officials of the
General Accounting Office,
which serves as a watchdog
for Congress over spending by
the executive agencies.
Their reports go first to the
Senate and House, then to con-
gressional committees which
have authority to conduct fol-
low-up Investigations If they
choose.
Mr.. Weetzel said GAO in
/ vestigators discovered that the
/ Navy in 1854 negotiated a
| fixed-price contract with the
New York Shipbuilding Corp.
without checking the figures
on which the company had
based the negotiated price of
I S7,975, 900 a ship.
He called the price "exces-
sive" because, he said, it in
cluded errors totaling SLOT 900
| in favor of the company and
$4,000 for overtime and other
premium pay to employees of
the company that he commended
never actually was paid.
Allowance Approved
Mr.. Weitzel said the Navy
approved the premium pay al
I lowance although it was more
than three times the rate of
premium pay previously expe-
rienced by the contractor" on
similar jobs. He said premium
wages actually paid turned out
to be less than usual.
/ He added that the price per
ship paid New York Shipbuild-
ing was higher than the price
the Navy had negotiated less
than 10 days earlier for four
other destroyer escorts. He said
the Navy acknowledged it did
not check the figures on which
the Camden company based its
price and thus was unaware
there were errors and that the
premium pay allowance was I'M
usually high.
Mr.. Weitzel said the Navy
defended" its failure to check
the figures on grounds that it
considered the price reasonable.
He said the Navy added that
the company needed the bust

$500 Million
Waste Seen
By the Associated Press

A Senate report says as much
as "one-tenth of federally sup
ported electronic researoh and
development may consist OF
unwilling. needless duplication
of efforts"
The report released yester-
day added:
There is no reason to doubt
that space science has been
slowed by absence to date of
a reliable, comprehensive sys-
tenn for centrally indexed
broadly and promptly dis
seminated data on current and
completed research and devel-
opment contracts and subcon-
tracts
The report was signed by
Senator Humphrey, Democrat
of Minnesota, as chairman of
a special Government Opera
tons subcommittee.
THE waste may add I'D to
5000 million out of So billion
currently expended for this
type of work per year." SEN
ator Humphrey said, adding,
however. that there was little
definite proof on which to base
the estimate.
The report said red tape and
lack of facilities are so acute
that "innumerable scientists
and engineers state that it
takes less time to perform their
own research than it takes to
try to find out if the research
has already been performed or
is being performed"
For an estimated So million,
the subcommittee said, facil-
tiles could be provided for quick
checks and easy location OF
! this data.
