Baltimore Flu
Called Past Peak
BALTIMORE. Feb. l6 (Ap)

BALTIMORE. Feb. 1e (AP)
- The influenza outbreak In
the Baltimore area appears to
have hit its peak a week or
10 days ago, DR.. John H. jan
ney. chief of the departments
division Of epidemiology said
today.
More distant counties in
Western Maryland and on the
Eastern Shore have been in

ing much Illness" he said. "It
is too early to say what the
next few weeks will bring.
Flu may disappear as rap
idly as 1t came or may con-
tinue to be prevalent on a slowly
diminishing scale until well into
March"
The influenza has been iden-
titled as the much-feared Asian
strain in some Maryland cases.

generally is not q serious dis
ease in a normally healthy per-
son. 1t is especially dangerous,
however. for persons over IS,

trash disposal problems. The
committee also urged elimina-
ton of the councils contri-
button to groups trying to re-
place Federal control over area
mass transit with a tri-state
compact. All three projects are
of special interest to Mont
gomery.
Last week, the Montgomery
Council voted 4 to 2 to with
draw its membership in the
metro agency on July /. Its
membership contribution next
year would have been $23, 400,
the exact cost of the studies
and services suggested for
elimination in yesterdays re-
port.
The Operations Committee,
although not specifically men,
tioning the Montgomery ac-
ton, also took swing at COM
plants that the metro coun-
Gil had abandoned its original
purpose by expanding its staff
and undertaking area-wide
surveys.
Original Purpose Cited
The council Of governments,
founded in 1857, has never de-
waited from its purpose to "re-
solve problems affecting the
metropolitan region and
to defend the autonomy Of
local authorities.
The three major projects
earmarked by the committee
for cancellation, however, were
of specific interest to Mont
gomery. The septic tank study
was triggered by water pollu-
ton problems experienced in
the Potomac and Poolesville Sec
tions of that county.
Last week, some Montgomery
Council members said that
they would consider rejoining
the metro unit if there were
sufficient guarantees that Fed
eral control over planning and
transit would be curbed.

A staggering number of them

plodded mechanically along on

District Rejects Claim
For Roosevelt Plaque

A claim by a sculptress who
had appealed to Mrs. Jacque-
line Kennedy for help has been
turned down by the District
Government.
Miss Selma Burke, of New
Hope. Pa, wrote Mrs. Kennedy
last october that the District
Government still owed her $3.50
for casting a bronze plaque of
Franklin d. Roosevelt.
This plaque was installed on
a wall In the lobby OF Re-
corder of Deeds Building at
Sixth and D streets NV. in
l945.
Miss Burke's claim was re-
ferred by the White House to
the District Government, which
after months of rummaging
through old files has decided
to reject the claim, according
to Walter N. Tobriner, presi-
dent Of the Board of Commits
sionerS.
When told OF the District ac-
ton. Miss Burke said that Il
will take this back to Mrs. Ken
nedy and tell her what has
happened. This is a Just debt
and there Is no reason why the
Government shouldn't pay It,"
Miss Burke said that she had
made previous attempts to col
lect from the District, but has
never been successful.

As he tried to quiet them,

This youth tried to snatch
the change carrier but was un-
able to break it loose from q
chain. The youth then got out
the back door, ran up to the
front, and renewed the attack,
striking the driver again in the
face and again trying to seize
the change carrier.
The driver drove to the En-
gine Company No. IA firehouse

Questions NeedIessly
Apprehensive

FIRST, I WISH to thank you for
providing an opportunity of expression
on the wheat referendum 1t is very
important matter and one which we
must all consider carefully.
In your March 18th issue, I believe
what Mr.. Taylor has to say is very
realistic and honest. He paints very
unhappy and discouraging picture but,
as one who was a local representative
of the Federal Land Bank during the
early thirties and as one who has
studied the 1862 C.E.D. Agricultural
Report with its deplorable philosophy
and many brainwashed endorsements,
I firmly believe his terrifying conclu-
sions really could happen in our good
United States of America.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1963-04-01

But with the other explanation, L
cannot be so appreciative-
The author could not escape the
monetary value of yes vote. That
is very conclusive and nobody in his
right mind can argue otherwise. Yet,
at the closing of his article this writer
could not seem to refrain from tossing
in a lot of doubts and fears which L
submit herewith, are completely un
founded and unjustified.
1st question: What will be the effect
on efficient production? The answer is
Very salubrious and beneficial. This
brings out one of the most desirable
features of the certificate plan. The
self-interest of every wheat grower will
prompt him to produce every bushel
possible (within his allotmenD as
reserve against the hazards of his oper-
alton since all excess can be carried
