Blair House hostess idea storms Maryland politics
The Blair House, owned by the government and used for visiting dignitaries, sparks a plan from Katherine Byron to become Blair House hostess. Maryland's coast guard auxiliary plan grows, with volunteers to patrol Baltimore harbor and the coast, and Maryland labor politics show CIO scrutiny of freshmen congressmen Ellison Baldwin and Beall. Farm wages reveal Maryland farmers push for realistic policies amid inflation fears.

Eastern Shore timber could more than double output
A Maryland Department of State Forests and Parks bulletin argues the Eastern Shore timber stands, damaged by neglect and fire, now yield about 31 cubic feet per acre but could reach 73 under scientific management. If adopted across roughly 600000 acres, annual wood production could rise by 145 million board feet with stumpage value not less than 726000. The commission urges landowners to seek free examinations and appraisal and notes a timber marking service.
