Robert E Miller says Donations to date are and while a few donors of former years have not yet been heard from and several teer workers still have to make reports to meet the established goal some special plan must be carried out Mr Miller declares He emphasizes the fact that this year's quota above that for 1949 is a minimum for the eight agencies to maintain their service schedules and

Prohibits Posting Of Any Kind He Tells Recent Candidates Mayor Elmer F has called upon candidates in the re- cent election to remove their signs from poles and trees in Frederick city In a letter to the nominees of the two political parties whose signs were reported still affixed to poles and trees the Mayor referred to a city ordinance which he said states very clearly that the signs should not be so posted at all The ordinance It shall be unlawful for any person to paste any poster or advertisement upon any city electric light pole in the city of Frederick or to attach the same in any manner thereto or to place any board containing any poster or advertisement against any electric light pole or against any telegraph or telephone or against any awning hitching or other pole or posts or fire plug on any of the streets lanes or alleys of Frederick Although many of the political signs appear to have been removed from the center of the city police say there are still a large number affixed to poles in the outlying sections The letters were only addressed to the candidates whose political signs still appeared on the poles it is understood After the city election both and defeated candidates traveled about the city on a truck removing all the political signs i The Mayor's letter said he had a survey made by the Police ment of the entire city and some of the signs were tacked to poles trees etc which is not very good I This he said makes a dangerous situation for men who climb said poles j The letter also said that strings had been used exclusively until very recently in the signs and nothing was said concerning them when the use of tacks was i made it was necessary that some action be taken He said prompt action in re- moving the signs would be Fair Meeting To Be Held In December Amendment Regarding Use Of Proxies To Come Before Life Members With the possibility of mutuel harness racing meets ruled out by the voters in the recent election the annual meeting of the life members of the Frederick County Agricultural Society on December 9 is not expected to produce any unusual developments Had the voters approved the pari-mutuel had been sanctioned by the life members action could have been taken at the December meeting toward im- plementing the enabling act which passed the legislature with the referendum attached Major interest at the meeting would now appear to be directed to a vote on an amendment which would have the effect of barring proxy votes in the election of the Board of Managers The amendment was introduced at the last annual meeting and in accordance with the society's rules had to lay over lor a year before coming up for a vote For years proxies from absent life members have been used in elections of Boards of Managers The resolution if adopted would require life members to be present in person at the annual meeting if they desired to have a vote in the election of their governing board The resolution would have little effect in years when there is no contest for the Board of Managers but might be a deciding factor when contests develop Last year there was a bitter fight for membership on the board and the old Board of Managers emerged victorious Both sides used proxies Although there had been rumors of another contest earlier this year there have been no developments lately to indicate that such a con- test is in the offing The Proxy resolution it is understood would have no effect except in the voting for members of the Board of Managers Proxies could still be used in votes on amendments or additions to the charter etc The meeting is being held for the tirst time in December under an amendment adopted at the last annual meeting It has been tomary for years for the annual meeting to be held in The

Last Night Indicates Fight To Finish Washington Nov 18 tary of State Dean has de- to fight it out with his Re- publican critics some of whom want him fired This became clear today in the light of his sharp attack last night on statements made by Senator Taft It was verified by Acheson's aides In last night's speech said without naming Taft that he had read that the isolationist has disappeared from the American scene and that a new figure has appeared whom he called the Taft in statements said that anybody is an who calls anybody else in isolationist lie called for a re-examination of tlic American program for re- arming Western Europe Acheson spoke before the tional Council of Negro Women In an acidly numerous series of jibes which frequent chuckles from his audience he suggested a re- is the same thing as an isolationist and declared those who advocate such a course in- capable of the very Inundations of leadership But the significance in the appeared to lie not so much in what he said as the fact that he said it Ever since the election Republicans have been demanding his resignation on the ground that the voters had shown their lack of confidence in him His own Democratic party is re- ported to be some loaders considering him a political liability and others convinced he should remain in office President Truman a news conference Thursday that stays Staying Acheson appeared at least in henry to have these he could take his political beating in silence and perhaps seek some working truce with his tics Or he could Last night he lashed out and there appeared to he no doubt that as a result Washington was in for a first class fight particularly in view of the strengthened lican minority in the Senate and Taft's position as a party leader Acheson launched his attack a- gainst a background of foreign policy development in the last few years He stressed the leading role of the United States in Europe and pictured the ment of the west as the creation of a military shield against Russia The organization of the west be- hind this shield and the promotion of nationalism in Asia as a force against Communism he said are things which demand years and vears of effort Shol Hunting Jerome Snyder 57 Wounded In Thigh Brought To Hospital By Companion A old resident of Route 4 Mt Airy was accidentally shot in the left thigh while hunting with several
