The plan of building good roads near
Townsend does not meet with the APP
proval of the Middletown Transcript.
In its last issue it says:-''The Levy
Court has advertised for bids for the
construction of an improved gravel
road in Appoquinimink Hundred. This
road is to be on both sides OF Town
send, running east and west. We have
no desire that our neighbors should
not enjoy a good road. and we realize
that this proposed road would be prac-
tically The feeder of Townsend. Prob
ably three fourths of the business
coming into that town does, and will
come over that road Therefore we
see why they want it. But the Tran
script felt at the time that the road
from Middletown to Odessa was
built that a mistake was being
made and we think the same thing
now. On the broad proposition that
all the improved roads should be con
structed with the end IN view of hav-
ing one good road at some time, every
body with whom we talked is willing
to agree. In other words there should
be some plan or system about expend-
ing twenty or thirty thousand dollars
year. But when we come to consider
a particular road, we find that per
sonai desire oyercomes theory, and
each wants a road for his own or neigh
borhood advantage. While road of
equal length to the proposed one, run
ming north or south from Townsend
along the State Road would probably
nok,be of near as much benefit to the
town as the proposed one, it would be
of more value as a part of a system
which would in time extend from the
State line on the north to Duck Greek
on the South. The probability is that
the proposed road will become a fact,
and The Transcript hesitated about
taking the matter up But we are op-
posed to the plan and we want to go on
record as being opposed to this partic-
ular part of it. We have talked this
matter over with many prominent and
thinking tax payers and as stated
above, ali agree in theory with us. !"

Berlin. Nov Chancellor Won
Buelow from the place in the reichstag
where he fell unconscious seven
months ago, spoke for forty-five min
utes today on Germanys foreign rela-
t1ons before highly Interested and
distinguished audience. During the,
course of his speech Won Buelow said:
Our relations with the United
States continue on the most friendly
basis, resting as they do upon histori-
cal and natural reasons. The frontiers
or the two countries do not touch, nor
do our political interests collide any

nomic relations it will be necessary to
arrange mutually beneficial agree
ment in an obliging spirit. AS both
sides have this spirit it seems impos.
sible that we should not come to an
understanding"
