Rector Uses Horse
And Buggy To Mark
Special Anniversary

The Rev John F Rollman, rector
of St Mary's Episcopal church in
Woodlawn, Baltimore. was featured
in a Baltimore Evening Sun article,
not for going to church as usual,
but by driving there in a horse
and buggy as part of an anniver-
sary event.
The event commemorated the
ninetieth anniversary of its found
ing. This took place September %.
His destination was st. Luke's
Episcopal church in Baltimore
where he celebrated a solemn high
mass of thanksgiving, with some
$50 parishioners of St Mary's join
ing him there at the II a. m. serv-
ices.
1t was a pastor of st. Luke's
church who was instrumental in
the founding of St. Marks 80 years
ago St Mary's church was the
first Episcopal church in the west
ern section of Baltimore county
and services are still he'd in the
Victorian-style white frame build
ing.
1t was Rector Rollman's first
time to drive a horse-drawn car
riage but the 33-year-old former
air force chaplain, is an expert
enced horseman, as he rides at
least once a week
The rector is a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Clarence Rol.man, of Deer
Park. When he arrived at the
church Sunday he was met by the
Rev G. Stanley Schwind, rector of
ST Luke's, who was a former rec
tor in Mt. Savage and Cumberland
areas. The Rev Mr. Rollman drove
back to St Marys in his automo-
bile when the celebration was over.

we plan to withdraw tariff conces-
sions on Common Market export
trade worth S46,000,000 annually,
an amount equal to poultry eX-
ports we have lost through the
tariff increase. Mr.. Herter has an
nounced that we will increase
tariffs on selected European inn
ports, and that hearings to deter
mine the extent of the increases
will begin on September 4. He is
sued a list of 19 items from which
the United States, after hearings,
will select q final list. Our tariff
increases could go into by mid
October if the issue of the Com
mon Market tariff against American
poultry is not resolved in the
meantime. Chief among the Euro
pcan items listed for possible tariff
increases by us are wine, trucks,
buses, Photographic papers, film,
gelatin, brandy and electric shavers.
Behind this move is deep con-
Germ among our people particularly
our farmers, that the Common
Markets exclusion of S46,000,000
worth of chickens a year is "only
the beginning. If we should be
defeated on chickens, we could ex-
pect defeat also on cereals and on
all other farm exports to Western
Europe, amounting to some $780,
000000 annually. Thus while our
poultry exports are but small
part of our farm exports, the pOul-
try tariff increase is significant.
Officials here recognize that they
are up against the desire Of Com
mon Market countries to protect
their own agricultural products, but
they view the Common Market ada
mant stand on chickens as a pre-
cedcnt which cannot be left un-
challenged. For one thing, new
burdens would be placed on the
balance-of-p problem if the
Common Market should continue
placing high duties on U. S. agri-
cultural products and cause seri-
Gus shrinkage Of these exports.
The decision to increase duties on
selected European imports is an
American warning to the Euro
peans that any further Common
discrimination against farm
products would force a wide re-
assessment of American trade
policy. By rctaliating against the
chicken tariff with counter-tariffs,
it is hoped that threatened Com
mon Market action against our
farm products may be stopped.
Reaction of American business in
general to our retaliating move is
one of relief. The United States,
our ncgotiators seem to say, is at
last serving notice that all conces-
sions cannot be made on this side
of the ocean We can only hope
that the Administration has re-
alistically sized up all facets of
the problem and is prepared to
hold firm.

Domestic Peace Corps Maybe
BY hairline margin of AZ to A,
the Senate passed the Presidents
bill to establish a domestic peace
corps" after writing in some strong
restrictions. The members of the
Corps, the official name of which
would be National Service Corps,
would help local communities
with public-service programs.
working in slums and depressed
areas, with the elderly, the disabled,
the mentally i'll, with school drop
outs, with migratory farm families
and with Indians. They would be
paid SIS a month salary plus
"minimal" living allowance. One
wonders about the caliber of
workers you can hire at that figure.
The Minority opposed the estab-
lishment of the Corps on the
grounds of its being unnecessary
and an ineXcusable waste Of the
taxpayers money Some saw in it
similarity to Hitler's Youth
Corps and Stains Farm Worker
Brigade. We, of the Minority, sue
ceeded in the Senate in limiting
the Corps life to two years and in
preventing it from going into any
State without a written request
from its Governor The Corps may
have trouble getting off the ground;
a tough fight on its approval is
expected in the House of Repre-
sentatives.
Federal Government, An Unfair
CompetitOr-Today the Federal
government runs some 10000 COM
mercial and industrial businesses
which are in direct competition
with private concerns. The U. S.
Government manufactures surgical,
medical and dental equipment, rope,
chain, watches, clocks, fertilizers
and paints. 1t runs embarrassing
plants, rum distilleries, printing
and power plants, and nurseries.
1t is in the plastic-laminating busi-
ness, the cement, railroad and
MISREPRESENTATION business. 1t
operates movie theaters and runs
ice-cream plants. Your taxes help
keep up these businesses for
Uncle Sam; being under Govern
ment control, they rarely make
ends meet. Businessmen who run
the same kind Of businesses that
the Government runs must meet the
competition of the Government and
still make profit after paying
taxes to the Government. The Gov
ernment takes buSineSSmen'S taxes,
and goes into business against
them. These Government-oWned
businesses got started in a big
way during the 1930s and 1940s.
During President EisenhoWer's
term in office, Government-owned
businesses were closed down by the
hundreds every month-as rapidly
as possible-for President Eisen-
hover felt that they offered unfair
competition and represented atroci-
Gus waste of tax money, and further
more, the Government has no
business in competitive business.

The presence Of peat in this
county was said by DR.. Melvin
Brown. instructor Of science at
Beall High school, Frostburg, who
is a member of the corporation, to
be extremely rare. When tests were
made he said it was almost impos-
sible to believe that the material
was actually here and not in Can
ada. and that it was of such high
quality The top layer is said to
rival Michigan peat. while the
lower section equals the peat that
is imported from Germany.
Apparently the land which has

Peat Moss
Continued from Page One)

The newest industry will draw
upon a natural resource for its
raw material and also finished
product Peat was explained in
bureau of mines information cir
GUAR as partly decomposed and
more or less disintcgratcd vegc-
table matter that has accumulated
in places where ordinary decay
Or chemical decomposition of the
material has been retarded by inn
mersion in water.
Assuming that peat began to ac-
cumulatc in lakes and ponds soon
after final recession of the ice
sheet, some 10 to 80 thousand years
have elapsed and the rate of for
nation can be computed at ap-
proXimatcly 1l2 to Az feet in q
500 years That would make some
of the peat in this Bittinger area
at least 5000 years old.
This peat was made by the
gradual filling in OF an impounded
area by successive stages of plant
growth. Plants largely responsible
for this were MOSES of the sphag-
sea bases built by the United States
in Morocco and used by us as adj
vance bases against the Soviet
Union. These bases have cost the
American taxpayers many millions
of dollars to build and maintain
Already, one of these former U. S.
bases is occupied by Russian per-

Berlin Wall Years Old-The
Berlin Wall. built by the Reds to

West Germany government reports
that total of 16,456 East Germans
have escaped through the wall to
freedom since the barbed-Wire-and-
concrete barrier was erected At
least 65 persons have been killed
trying to escape. Before the Wall
was erected, about 100000 East
Germans fled from the Communist
rule to freedom in the West.
A Bounty For Soviet Defectors

West cashed two high hearts
and then led O trump. South,

vague hope that somebody
might make q bad discard.
Finally South cashed the ace
Of clubs and gave up. II can't

bled as he conceded a one

South then went after his

we probably shouldn't get that

There was nothing In this
complaint. -Four spades was q
very reasonable contract and
South should have made the

Marked with Strength
West was marked with all Of
the missing high cards for his
vulnerable opening bid in first
position. That Is, West needed
the king and queen Of clubs in

If South relies on Vests bid,
he makes the contract by way
Of an end play. Declarer draws
