Oakland and a number of other
Garrett county towns will follow
most of the Eastern United States
on Sunday morning, April 20, at
o'clock, and turn up their clocks

the railroad schedule will hold to
standard time. The County Com
missioners made no move about
changing time so officially the
county will remain standard. The
office of Richard L. Davis, clerk
Of the Circuit court, will operate
on daylight time. Other offices,
while being conducted officially on
standard time, will nevertheless
have their workers come to work
an hour early and they will quit
an hour early.
The West Virginia legislature
passed law making daylight time
mandatory in that entire state this
year. from May &c September, in
, elusive.
The ticket agent of the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad said there
would be some changes Sunday
and additional changes on May ID,
but no definite times we're avail
able.
Daylight time is still considered
inconvenient for many farm peo-
pic and the Farm Bureau consist
emily has opposed daylight time.

T arm Bureau Will
Give Wheat Issue
F acts TO Farmers

Garrett County farmers are to
lie given facts, including the pos
sible effects of a mo" or a Eyes"
vote, in the forthcoming wheat
referendum, stated Robert o. Glot-
felty, president, in discussing this
subject at meeting of the Board
Of Directors of Garrett County
arm Bureau, last Wednesday,
April IT,
1T is virtually important to the
future of agriculture that all farm
crs know the issues involved
said Glotfelty. "as wheat produ-
GERS prepare to go to the polls
May 21st. to cast their votes for
or against a certificate program as
set forth in the Food and Agri-
cultural Act of 1862"
The farm leader pointed out that
wheat growers are being led to
believe that their only choice in
the referendum is between sup
ply control, as provided in a COM
plicated multiple price certificate
wheat plan, or chaos"
This choice totally ignores the
fact that if growers disapprove
the program" stated Mr.. Glotfelty,
the Secretary of Agriculture
would be required to support
wheat for those staying within
their allotmcnts at 500 of parity"
Also ignored is the fact that Con-
gress is i'll session and that sew
eral prominent members of both
political parties arc already draft
ing new wheat legislation for en-
actmcnt in the event the certificate
plan is voted down.
The Board OF Directors CON
Guided that the real issue in this
referendum is not just a vote on
another onc-ycar wheat program,
but point of attack to bring
wheat and several other important
farm commodities under govern
ment-operated supply control
programs.
1T is my belief that the wheat
producers Of Maryland and the
United States said Glotfelty, "if
given the facts on the real issues
involved in this coming referen-
dunn. will vote no by an over
vhelming majority"

Final Two Train
Bus Suits End
In Hung Jury
Jurors In Westminster Un-
ubIe To Reuch Verdict;
Discharged Monday

The final two suits among the
number filed against Leroy A.
Campbell, bus driver, and the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad, as the
result of the school bus-uain crash
on the Mt Lake crossing in Sep
TENDER. 1859, were concluded Mon
day night with a hung jury.
Jack Turney, one of the attorneys
for the plaintiffs, said the jury had
deliberated for some nine and one
nalf hours. The suits were COM
bined to simplify procedure and
the cases were presented in the
!, Carroll County Circuit court at
Westminster starting last Tuesday.
A recess was ordered Friday and
court reconvened Monday when
arguments were concluded. The
Jury got the case shortly after l
p. m, and after some nine hours
they notified the judge they could
not come to any decision. After
further instructions by the judge
the jurors retired again for brief
time but came out within half
hour and announced they we're
not able to agree. The Judge then
dismissed the jurors about 10:45
Monday night.
Four other suits had been tried
and vcrdicts rendered in favor of
the plaintiffs, Sandra Jean Patton,
Mary Jane Lee, Roy Glen Hinklc
and Frances Dixon. Amounts
ranged from S22,500 to $4,000 with
additional amounts specified in
each instance for parents of the
children for hospital expenses, etc
The Patton and Lee girls had
their suits heard in November,
1860, and appeals we're taken. The
Court of Appeals sustained the
verdicts of the local juries in these
cases. The Frances Dixon and
Hinkle suits were heard in West
minister and judgments rendered
there last August
Other suits we're also filed but
did not go to trial, several being
settled out of court.
Stanford Hoff, Westminster, and
Fred A. Thayer, Oakland, were at
torneys for the defense, but
'rhayer was called away following
the death of his father-in-law. Jack
Turney, Oakland, assisted John
Fox, of Baltimore, for the plain
tlffs. Plaintiffs in the cases last
week were James Allen Hinkle
and Patricia Ann Hinkle, children
OF Roy Glen Hinkle, ST.. One son,
Richard Hinkle, was one of seven
school pupils, killed in the acct
dent.

can be classed a spiral if the
need arises. This line persona

its character.

BEAUTY IN FLOWERS
Apples Appear
As Random Sturs
BY MRS. HERBERT H. GREGER

The cranberries are on the
counter and the turkeys in the
freezer. Thanksgiving, our spe-
cial American way of giving
thanks for our many blessings,
Is almost here.
We begin to take stock of our
larder for the feast. We check
the jams and jellies, the pic
kles, we count the napkins and
the noses Of an expanding fami-
ly. And, while we make a physi-
cal rundown Of all the things
that need doing and planning,
we cannot help but look at our
selves and our blessings.
They are personal and univer-
sal. They are permanent and
they are ever changing. They
are overwhelming or perhap:
microscopic visible and invisi,
BILE, loud and noisy or Just a
whisper, the touch of a hand.
They are abundant.
Everyone of our senses
shares our beautiful dwelling
place on earth. Do we take
enough time each day to absorb
what is newly spread before us?
We know that tomorrow will al
ways be different, newly ar
ranged for us who have been
asleep for a long, dark night.
We, too, are changed into a
blank page of our book of time.
Our actions, our impressions
will fill it by eventide, when we
again lay our heads to rest.
What an opportunity and what
a challenge to make use of the
blessings of a completely new
day. Whatever we sense and
see, hear, taste, feel or smell
could be as old as time itself,
but on this day it has a new set
of circumstances which set it
apart from yesterday.
Take this funny spiral line
which l used for an arrange
ment in the room which we use
