MAULL'S PILOT BIGL.
There is a big fight now on ever the
Mau.l amendatory of the Delaware
pilot law. This bill was Drawn at the
instance of President Virden, of the
Board OF Pilot Commissioners, and Sem
ator Maul introduced II. Captain
Wilthank, of Lewoe, has been up here
and to some Of the members of The
senate he has voiced his objections 20
the proposed measure. He says thai.
the present law authorizes the II.
rensing of but Forty pilots and Presi-
dent Nirden has exceeded that number
by licensing some Of his relatives. To
cover this excess Of authority the pres.
ent bill increases the number Of ii.
censed pilots to forty-eight. Captain
Wiltbank reports that last month tn,
earnings of the pilots, after being
pooled and distributed equally among
them, were 1926 each. Heehinks that the
number cf pilots should be increased
20 100, and that thar many families
receive comfortable subsistence from
the service, instead of restricting tho
number to forty. Not only that, but
he is opposed to the proposition Of th,
PILOTS to raise the pl,ot fees half q
dollar foot, as he fees that thcli
compensation is already sufficient. IN
addition TO this. he Is convinced THAI
the pilots. who make such large earn.
Ines. should pay a license of from s2c
TO $50 year TO the state, not a dollar
Of license being received by the publl,
treasury as a return for the great benc.
fits which pilots enjoy by reason 81
the restrictive features OF The pres.
ent law. It is understood that several
Lewes men will come mere and either
amend the Maull bill or Introduce Z
substitute, drawn along lines which
they consider more liberal ana equi
table. Captain West, Of Lewes ha.
been up here working for amendment.
