Test Pits Dug At Jug Bridge For New Route
Test pits are being dug south of Jug Bridge as the State Roads Commission tests sites for a new Route 40 bridge over the Monocacy River. Two routes are under study near the old bridge, one north and one through Dr. James A. Long property, both avoiding the steep eastern approach. Local clubs back relief efforts, with Kiwanis Lions Rotary and chambers endorsing plans to petition the Roads Commission for immediate action.

New Maneuver By Farm Bloc Watched
Washington reports the Senate farm bloc moves to block sales of government held crop surpluses below parity as senators delay a 32.76 billion military appropriations bill. Senator Thomas of Oklahoma plans an amendment to ban expenditures on commodity purchases under parity, while a separate measure aims to prohibit CCC sales below parity. Prime Minister Mackenzie King told the House Canadians trained under compulsory service could be sent to Alaska or the United States to help repel any invasion attempt.

Federal Road Funds Frozen in Budget Talk
Annapolis reports Governor O Conor asked State Roads Commission Chair Ezra Whitman to gather all data on possible curtailment of Federal highway funds to Maryland. He cited President Roosevelt’s alleged move to freeze about 500 million for nondefense highway projects, noting Maryland’s ongoing access roadway program would likely be unaffected. The governor warned the order could affect state programs, while a shelf of projects might exist to employ workers after the emergency ends. The piece also notes New York City first used traffic lights in 1918 with officers operating levers.
