County Commissioners
On Tuesday

Ten highway projects on the
state system in this county will
receive top priority in the high
way needs study now nearing com
pletion, John B. Funk, chairman
director of the State Roads COM
mission told the County Commits
sioners on Tuesday.
Mr. Funk made the list public
in a meeting Tuesday morning. He
explained that number of prof.
ectS on U. S. 2l9 and U. S. 40 also
were critical but would be done
under the current "go-roads" pro-
gram of accelerated construction
on the primary highway system.
Mr.. Funk told the County Com
missioners, members of the Gener-
al Assembly and other county
representative that data assembled
during the past year is now being
evaluated by Needs Study work
committees.
When completed in October, the
Needs Study will contain these
items, Mr. Funk said: recommenda-

county and municipal systems of
highways within the framework of
a 20-year planning period; a four
year construction program on the
state highway system; maintenance
needs on all three systems; a
recommendation as to how the
money required to fulfill the needs
can be raised; and a recommenda-
ton for distribution of highway
funds among the counties, munich
palitics and Baltimore city.
The study, with its recommends
tions, will be submitted to the
Legislative council this fall and to
the General Assembly in Febru-
ary, Mr.. Funk said.
At Tuesdays meeting Mr.. Funk
traced the history of state high
way construction and financing.

Farmers Parade Tonight

The seventh annual Garrett Coun-

with top quality products and a
high level of interest and activity,
according to fair officials.
The number of exhibitors jumped
almost 100 with the number now
at 694, and it was certain that the
exhibits also jumped quite a bit,
but the exact number was not
known.
There was feeling that garden
crops would be somewhat leSsened
by the late season, but those en-
gagged in judging Wednesday said
the garden crops we're surprising
ly good and numerous. There were
more animals at the fair also and
everything in general showed i'm
provement.
H. G. Gortner, president, said
the judgers had told him the quail
ity was much improved over items
of a year ago. There was still am
pie room for displaying articles.
Yesterday was children's day
and many classes were judged. The
pet show and horse show were
features of yesterdays program.
Today is farm and city day and

Concern Voiced
Over Use Of Gas
Field For Storage
Lessons Claim Move Would
CurtuiI Funds To County
And Landowners

Concern over the use of the Ac-
cident gas field area as storage
reservoir before all the market
able gas has been distracted from
the producing wells there, has
brought together a group of prop
erty owners in an attempt to keep
the flow of money moving toward
Garrett County and toward the gas
lessons.
Some eighty persons attended a
meeting last Saturday night in
the Accident fire hall with B. O..
Aiken as chairman and Mrs. Wal
ter Harman as acting secretary.
A group also met with the Coun-
ty Commissioners and county legis-
lators on Monday and has arranged
for an organizatiOnal meeting for
Monday. August IL, also at the Ac-
cident fire hall, at 8 o'clock p. m.
A story appeared in the New
York Times, and subsequently in
The Republican few weeks ago
which told of the plans of the
Texas Eastern Transmission cor
poration to use the Accident field
as an underground gas storage
reservoir. The right of using it as
such was granted in the leases and
unit operation agreements now in
effect.
Persons who have an interest in
the producing wells have received
letters telling them that when the
field is used for storage the annual
payments would be less and the
income would be extended over a
longer period of time. The COM
pany offered to purchase oil and
gas rights at $50 per acre, based
on full ownership of the oil and
gas rights.
MIR. Aiken stated that number
of the lessons have felt the area
should not be used as gas stor-
age field until the field is depleted
and they felt that there is still as
much gas in the field as has been
taken from it during the past ten
or more years. He pointed out that
the county stands to lose a great
deal of revenue as well as the indi-
vidual lessons.
MIR. Aiken said these lessons feel
that $50 per acre for the oil and
gas rights is only one-fifth or one
sixth of the actual worth in the
areas where there are producing
wells

Hodges referred to him to the
press as "Mr. Burnside" .
Jim Coates was on a pre-game

was handed a dozen golf balls.
When he opened the box he
discovered they were beat up,
cut-up balls, a gag by Ralph

Hodges a big hand as he pre-

tors dugout. Roger Maris

ready TO return TO the lineup.
