Former Moose Hall
Purchased by K. of P.

Property decisions were made this
week which will affect business
conditions favorably. Garrett Lodge
No. 113, Knight of Pythias, has
about completed arrangements for
the purchase of the former Moose
building on Third street, while the
property on which the Pythian
building was built, is being pur-
chased by the Rolyan interests.
The Pythian building, which
housed the Maryland theatre, was
almost completely gutted by fire
a few weeks ago. 1t adioins the
present Rolyans store, at the cor
ncr of Third and Alder street.
The consideration for both these
buildings was not revealed. The
price for the Moose building was
thought to be in the neighborhood
of $4,000 to S35,OOO. No estimate
was made on the Pythian building
The Knights of Pythias lodge
plans to use the second floor for
lodge functions and probably will
rent the downstairs for offices
Homer L. Bennett, of Rolyans, said
the Pythian building would in all
probability be torn down and at
least a portion of the property
used as a parking lot, for which
he felt there was a great need. He
said it was possible that an addl-
ton to the present Rolyans store
might be constructed, but this was
not certain. The first thing he
wants to do is get the building
razed and carted away. An inspec-
ton of the building by William A
Shirer, contractor, did not give
encouragement about any plan tC
rebuild.
At present the building remains
hazard and the alley has beer
closed to traffic since the fire
There have been no definite plan,
for construction of a theatre build
ing. as far as is known.
Some other construction already
is under way in the area. Paul anC
Parke Tressler, of Oakland, are
erecting a garage and service sta
ton along the Oakland-Mt. Lake
Park highway 1t will be near the
Browning building. Footers alread!
have been poured and they hope

Gas Production
In Last Quarter
Continues Low
County Receives Check For
$4,028.6l For Period End
ing September 30

The production of natural gas
in Garrett county continued eX-
tremely low during the previous
three months period ending Sep
tember &c. according to a report
received this week by the County
Commissioners office.
The board received a check for
S4028.61. Six months ago it was
Sl1.856.33. Three months ago it was
S5,77999 The report this week was
the third for the new year. The
first S50,0OO received in a year goes
to liquidate the school building
Indebtedness and up to $25,00O above
that amount goes toward expenses
of the Garrett County Memorial
hospital The four checks last year
did not quite make the $50000
total, and there was every indica-
ton that the four checks this year
would be considerably less. Some
ySdl tHC JOIdl Ilou DCCh hlOlG tlidlA
$4,000. The total for the three
checks this year is S21 ,66493, and
a portion of that goes to incorpo-
rated towns where producing wells
are in the corporate limits.
This would mean an additional
need of $4,000 to pay off the school
bonds coming due, and would
leave nothing for the local hospital.
The report this week showed that
35,943, 900 cubic feet of gas had
been taken from the wells of the
area compared to 322,745,O00 the
previous ninety days. The report
covers the period July l to Sep
tember 80 and showed an aver
age of some 2,6O0,OOO cubic feet
per day The amount received for
marketable gas was $57, ,551 Al, COM
pared to S82,571 80 for the previ-
Gus quarter. Some checks for a
three months period have run as
high as S28,000.
Thirty-three wells were listed
as producing gas, one less than the
previous quarter. Seventeen wells
were listed under the Texas East
ern Transmission corporation,
seven under Columbian Fuel cor
poration and four under Cumber-
land and Allegheny Gas company.
Largest producer on the list was
the Mitchell Rush well with 25.-
476,OOO cubic feet, with Herman
and Hanlin well second with 21,-
100000. Barbara Miller well was
third with 21,374,000
The Norris K. Welch we'll, areas
first producer still continues to
provide substantial amounts. 1t was
listed at 1851 900 with a market
value of $2,6748O.
A breakdown showed that ST.
GIL "A of the check was from the
purchasers proportion of tax at 28
percent of the marketable gas, and
S2.41717 from the producers pro-
portion of the tax at AZ percent.
Since the first check for the tax
on marketable gas was received
by the County Commissioners in
July, 1851, the county's governing
body has received 1851 ,646 80. A
tabulated report of the gas produc-
ton appears in this issue.

Republican
Is Speaker
By RUTH DEAN
Star Staff Writer

The Republican Party has
a chance to become the DOM
inant party in the South If
Southerners can be persuaded
that it represents the pres
ervation of fundamental
governmental principles, Mr..
Horace z. Henderson. chair
man Of the Republican Party
of Virginia, declared yester-
day.
The South represents "the
greatest political paradox Of
our time" Mr.. Henderson told
the morning political study
group of the League of Re-
publican Women Of the Dis
trict.
For while it is dedicated to
the preservation Of constitu-
tional rights, it has given
blind devotion" to the DEM
ocratic Party and thus en-
abled 1t to control the de-
termination of national pol
icies in the Congress for 20
of the past 35 years and to
control the White House for
81 of the past 35 years."
This was a period, he elab-
grated, during which most
of the principles which the
South strongly supports have
been corrupted and destroyed
by liberal national policies
which will, unless soon
stopped, take this nation into
a socialist totalitarian state"
Already thousands of
Southerners who have been
Democrats all their lives are
now crossing over to the Re-
publican Party because the
Democratic Party is COM
pletely dominated by liberal
Democrats intent upon
changing all that has been
America" Mr.. Henderson
stated.
In Virginia, the Republi-
can Party is "the champion
of moderate change" Mr..
Henderson declared. Outlin-
ing some Of its policies. he
said the party has opposed
the massive resistance" pol
icy of the Democratic Party
and advocated abolishment
Of the poll tax as well as
Constitutional revision.
At the same time Mr..
Henderson decried the "trag-
edy" of political expediency
in modern day statesman
ship. "In this era Of chal-
lenge to freedom" he de-
clared, I'VE can no longer ac-
cept government by political
expediency, leadership for
political exploitation, and
representation for reelection.
The very existence Of our
American society demands
representative political lead
ership and a rejection Of rep
representative political lead
the manipulation Of minority
blocs for political expediency."
