Sunpapers Back Bid
OF Charles Matthias

OF the seven battles for Congress
in Maryland this term the Sun
papers have backed three Republi-
cans. Morton, Matthias and Ram
say.
An editorial has the following to
say;
Sixth District
Charles McC Matthias, Jr, Re-
publican incumbent, versus John
r. Foley, Democrat. AS a freshman
congressman Mr. Matthias has al
ready served with distinction in
Washington, and if continued in of
flee can be expected to enlarge on
that beginning. Mr.. Foley, in one
term in Congress before his de-
feat by Mr.. Matthias in 1860, be-
came known principally as an adj
vocate of heavy spending without
adequate discrimination. Vote
MATTHIAS.
First District
Thomas F. Johnson. Democratic
incumbent, versus Roger c. B.
Morton, Republican. Because of his
undistinguished record in the Mary
land Senate we opposed Mr.. John
son for election to Congress in
1858 and, finding his record there
also undistinguished, opposed him
for reelection in 1860 For the
same reason we oppose him again.
Mr.. Morton, new figure in Mary
land politics, gives promise that
he could effectively represent the
Shore in Washington. Vote NOR
TON.
Seventh District
Samuel N. Friedel, Democratic
incumbent, versus Caroline r. Ram
say, Republican. In the House of
Representative for the past ten
years Mr.. Friedel has worked more
diligently than most congressman,
and has no marks against him eX-
cept lack of distinction Mrs Ram
say, noted for her civic-mindedness
and public spiritedness, would be
a maverick in Congress, and
mavericks when few in number
are useful to prevent somnolence
in the herd. Vote RAMSAY.

Use your vote carefully. Make
sure your vote counts for continue

Dismal History
By SYLVIA PORTER

tration. In the less than a de-
cade Of its life, the Consumers
Council frequently fought with
the Administration of which ii
was a part, for the AAA was
trying to raise farm prices and
control the flow of such prod
ucts as milk to the market to
stabilize prices. This office was
killed in World War II.
CD In 1887, a third expert
ment took place when a Con-
sumers Council was appointed
to the National Bituminous
Coal Commission, designed to
control coal production and fix
prices at the mines. The con-
flicts Of interest were over
whelming. This one was short
lived too.
a. During and for a while
after World War II, consumers
were represented in the war
time agencies Of the Office of
Price Administration and the
Office of Price Sterilization.
These consumer committees
says DR.. Campbell, identified
themselves as consumer repre-
sentatives, at least with respect
to price control and rationing. "
They died when the agencies
were dissolved.
Dismal Record
90 From 1916 to 1852, the
Presidents Council Of Eco
nomic Advisers conferred from
time to time with q National
Consumer Advisory Committee
which it had appointed. The
committee had no influence. II
faded away.
Why so dismal a record?
An obvious reason is that
most consumers wear two hats
and the hat with which they
rarely identify themselves is
that Of the consumer as such.
You, as a wage-earner, will
identify yourself with your
union battling for the biggest
pay raise possible, or you, as a
businessman, will identify your
self with your industry trying
for the best price-profit setup
poSsible-but neither Of you
will identify yourself primarily
as a consumer who might Suf-
fer from your wage-price-profit
policies.
1t may be that as a result
the consumer just cannot be
organized or speak with a pow
erful voice in this country. But
that only makes it more i'm
portant that he be recognized
and represented at the national
level.

against a background Of re-
peated failures. 1t must, as Mr..
Kennedy told the members,

Mid-year, 1862, has brought
dramatic changes in the stock
market. Prices are consider
ably lower than they were six
months ago. Stocks purchased
six months ago, a year ago or

As a result, you are called
upon to revise much of your

your holdings in the light of
present conditions and alter
native values.
Today, the stakeholder should
ask certain questions. For ex-
