Blue Cross
‘Laymen’
Plan Told
The majority of the Board of
Directors of Maryland’s Blue
Cross hospitalization plan will
be laymen, according to new by
laws recently approved by State
Insurance Commissioner F.
Douglas Sears.
The new regulations call for
17 public directors with 16 rep
resentatives of hospitals and
medical organizations. Also, at
least two trustees will be chosen
from the Eastern Shore, and
two each from Southern and
Western Maryland.
Formerly, representation was
largely concentrated In Balti
more City and Baltimore Coun
ty. The changes In Blue Cross
by-laws in Maryland was hailed
by Sears.
Relatives recall that when the
post office was to be named,
its now forgotten postmaster
told Mrs. Peters’ father, John,
that he was going to submit the
child's name for the post office.
Mr. Thomas is said to have
agreed, not knowing that the
postmaster had not spelled his
daughter’s name correctly. The
name “Ednor” stuck and was
never changed.
Mrs. Peters was a lifelong
resident of Montgomery Coun
ty. She was born at “Clifton,”
family home of the Thomas
clan for more than 200 years.
The old house, of Flemish
Bond, still stands but is no long
er in the family. It was sold
last year after the death of
Mrs. Peters’ brother, William
John Thomas, last family oc
cupant
Mrs. Peters was educated at
the Sandy Spring High School
and was a member of the first
graduating class at George
School, Bucks County, Pennsyl-

“forgotten man in the economic
market” the head of the Na
tional Association of Letter Car
riers charged this week in
launching a “Crusade for Eco

William C. Doherty, associa
tion president, said the average
hourly pay of a postal worker
is less than that paid garbage
collectors.
“The average letter carrier
with three dependents takes
home only $64.97 a week, or al
most $lB less than a factory
worker,” the postal union chief
declared.
He went on to stay that cur
rent rates of pay for letter car
riers are so low that the em
ployes cannot even qualify for a

ocratic precinct 13-3 (Kensing

Mrs. Alice Hostetler, mem

Mrs. Sharpe by two votes in
the first election, failed to file
for the second election. Mean
