Women Oppose Daylight Saving Time at Frederick Meeting
The Frederick County Homemakers, in their 28th annual meeting at Frederick High School, narrowly adopted daylight saving time retention over a faction of "no" votes. Guest speaker Miss Venia M. Kellar shared Europe impressions, praising war refugees care in Switzerland and Italy's postwar revival, while noting Danish hardships and Italian progress. The gathering also welcomed Dr. Symons and numerous local officials before police briefly investigated a suspected break-in at the armory late Sunday.
