CHANGE IN FOOTBALL RULES.

~ HE National Football Rules Committee IS
Il in session in New York and for several
days the solons of the sport will wrestle with
the problem of making the game less dangerous
so that hostile criticism will be averted and
fewer lives lost in future contests.
The football men are not finding their task
easy The first question that may be asked is,
why is it that the game has become so dangerous
as compared with the way in which it was
played some years ago? But years ago football
was considered rough sport. Men were ire
quenty injured. but not much was said about
the accidents because the sport was not in the
public eye as it is today. Then again, compared
with the present time, few young men and boys
played football 1t is doubtful whether the
percentage of injuries, il we eliminate last year,
which was a particularly unfortunate year, Is
greater. considering the numbers engaged in
the play than it was some twenty years ago.
Be that as it may the demand is that the
sport shall be made less injurious or else the cry
for its abolition will persist No change in the
rules could be made which would free football
from all danger. The forward pass is being
debated considerably. some of the football
authorities thinking that there is something
wrong with the pass. But to the spectators the
forward pass has been interesting and spec
taouar feature of the game, not attended by
great danger.
The rules may be further amended as to
prevent mass plays by keeping all the rushers
i'm line when play is made by half back This
is revival of the old-style game when the half
backs played more openly. Pushing pulling
and dragging the runner together with inter
ference NAV be abolished, and that would do
awav with considerable of the roughness.
If the runner were required to cry down as
soon as tackled another element of roughness
would be lessened. And If the officials strictly
enforced the rules against foul play, most of the
plav of that kind would be done away with.

Editorial
Opinion
sussex Road EnaiEeer.

Sussex Road EnsiEeer.
At the meeting Of the Levy Court last
Tuesday at Georgetown that body was re-
organized for 1910 by electing Thomas A.
Williams Of the Second District, presi-
dent, and Daniel J. Layton, attorney. An
effort was made to elect some one to the
office Of Road Engineer. but nothing was
accomplished. The attorney asked for
moro time to consider the laws which
once were in use that permitted the SOW
eral districts to raise special moneys for
lettering the roads.
The new law has a clause IN it which
says; "that all laws conflicting with this
law, are hereby repealed" The new law
also says that "all roads now built. or
hereafter constructed. shall be under the
joint control Of the Levy Court and the
Road Engineer; and that no money shall
be paid out without the approval of the
latter officer" No matter what construc-
tion is put on the law by the attorney for
the Levy Court the County Treasurer
would not have the right to pay any
money out for work done on the roads
without the approval OF the Road Engi-
neer, and his bondsmen would surely be
held accountable for this act The people
know that road work cannot be done at
this season, but they are willing to let
those in authority have all the time neces-
sary to work out the situation but there is
one thing the people will demand aud It
is, the wiping out Of the old system of
working our roads, which was fully half
wasted and that a practical system be
orranized under the laws provided by the
/ legislature.

LECTURES FOR
SINGLE TAKERS
The Rev. H. 5. BiGelOW and
John 2. White to Speak
Here

Members of the Delaware Reform
Association and others who heard the
address by +. II. Monroe, president Of
the Henry George Lecture Association
here on Friday night, will be given
opportunity to hear two other well
known speakers of the lecture asso-
citation in the near future. They are
the Rev. Herbert S. Bigelow and John
n. White. both Of whom have spoken
here before. Mr.. Bigelow is pastor of
the Vine Street Congregational
Church, Cincinnati, o., and Mr.. White
is a prominent resident of Chicago.
They have addressed many large and
important gatherings.
Mr. Monroe made an excellent ad-
dress on Friday evening, and single tax
ers will doubtless endeavor to have him
come here frequently. Mr.. Monroe says
the progress of the Single Tax move
ment has been most encouraging. In
an interview with an EVENING
JOURNAL reporter he said:
ut Is now thiry years since Prog
ross and Poverty was written and
the progress of the movement during
that period has been extraordinary.
No ideas have ever been promoted
with more system and greater en-
/ efgy than have those OF the great
/ Henry George. The Henry George
men claim that no other civic or re-
form association in the United States
can show such practical results dur
ing the past ten years. Owing to the
fact that the Henry George men have
not acted at any time as a political or
| ganiZatiOn preferring to cooperate
with either the Democrats or the Re
publicans usually the former, much
! OF the real practical work accom-
plished has lost its identity as
! Single Tax work, but the good
has nevertheless been accomplish
ed. One Of the results obtained
is the securing Of court decisions in
a. number Of cases where laws have
been affirmed by the higher courts, em-
| bOdying principles which reach far into
the Single Tax theory. In other cases
where laws have been declared uncon-
stitutional the Single Takers nave been
enabled to direct their work towards
the securing of constitutional amend
ments which would make possible the
reforms proposed. There is scarcely a
state in the Union that cannot point
to some legislation of great value tC
| the community, the adoption of which
has been due almost entirely to Sin
gle Tax influence. Even where the
laws proposed have not been adopted
the educational work that has beer
carried forward has resulted in the
modification Of other pernicious laws.

the past few years has been astonish-

the grace and speed OF these foreign
