FOR DELAWARE
Miss Leah Burton Suggested
for the HOnOr--.NO Gift
Decided Upon

Mayor Horace Wilson. chairman Of
the committee OF the Board Of Trade
which has the matter OF purchasing a
gift FOR the battleship Delaware in
charge. said today that the committee
had not committed itself as to what it
might recommend for gift to tho ship.
The rumor was current that the commits
tee contemplated purchasing silver SER
vice. but this is not true, Mayor Wilson
said.
Congressman Hiram r. Burton thinks
Il would be better to create a fund to
be used for literature and as prizes.
Neither has any definite action been
taken regarding the selection Of a
sponsor for the battleship. Had the
launching taken place during the admin
istration Of Governor lea Il is likely that
the Governors daughter would have been
chosen as sponsor. hut the launching
will take place after the Governors
term expires
Miss Leah Burton, daughter Of Con-
Eressman Hiram r. Burton, he's been

Judge Cochran had the letters alleged to

that after careful examination OF their

as the court was concerned there was no

which Mr.. Pierce had made. The court
said that It was not proposed to have
the case drag along.
