KNOCKING"

MITH heavy hammer The Sunday Star
" knocks the Board of Trade hard blow The
Star considers that the Board engages in nothing
but chin music" and that it is time for the board
to get move on it. The Star thinks that the
board does not command the confidence of the
people because it does nothing but talk In other
words according to the view of The Star there
should be general overhauling. The people would
be ready to move for a progressive Wilmington,
but the board is not in position to lead. What
is needed, according to The Star, as we take it,
is that the board should develop more progressive
leaders. If things we're changed, the people would
respond Indifference would give way to inter-
est.
We could not 60 so far as The Star has done,
1t so disposed in criticsing the board Certainly
some unselhsh men have devoted without recon-
pense their time and their money, in many in
stances, to advancing the work of the board If
they don't know how to do it, if their methods are
failure, other men who think they can do better
should realize that they owe a responsibility TO
the city to help out and not become disguised as
The Sunday Star evidently is. Matters will not be
made better by abandoning the board to its fate
and merely grumbng at those who are still on
the ship.
No matter whether we like the board and the
way II does things or attempts to do them or not,
the fact remains that the board is the official body
OF the business and manufacturing community
IT the present directors Of the board should LAY
down and no others should take their places we
should have no board at all. And yet if there are
others who think they could do better, let them
come forward and manifest their ability when the
sessions Of the board are resumed No doubt the
experience of The Star with the Board of Trade
Journal is not such as TO incline The Star to be
enthusiastic but conditions, we think have some
what changed
There has been, however ample evidence that
some people in Wilmington have determined TO
push the city forward-the duPonts for example.
Hence It seems to us that unless we are content
to do nothing, we should support the board as the
only body we have and try to make It better
body

TAFT AND THE EXTRA SESSION.


EROM the great stir made by Congress during
the last FIVE months during which time the
extra session has been held, il might be supposed
that considerable legislation had been enacted.
Only three measures have become laws-the Cana
dian reciprocity agreement the campaign public
ty bill and bill to reapportion the membership
of the House.
The extra session was called TO consider the
Canadian matter. and the President is TO be con-
graduated on the fact that this measure has been
passed The campaign publicity law is splendid
thing but there was no need of an extra session
for it.
The Democrats have attempted to make great
deal of political capital out of the session and the
Progressive Republicans tried 10 recover from the
blow they received because of their opposition to
the Canadian agreement by forcing through bills
changing several tariff schedules
The President, however, stood by his expressed
intention to veto other tariff measures for the
reason that the tariff board is collecting informa-
ton and any revision made now would simply be
patch work to be altered at the next session OF
Congress when the information of the tariff board
is available.
Mr. Taft is therefore prepared to go before the
country without fear that his tariff attitude will be
condemned, except by his political opponents. He
can we'll afford to stand on his record.

Shopping note: Kitchen cabinets
are selling as low as $3.50"
The kitchen cabinet is thing OF
the past. The tennis cabinet is also a
matter of history. Presently we have
the golf cabinet. 1t costs more than
$3.50, however.
Now that the traffic strike situation
in England Is in fair way to be
settled, we shall have to listen to the
dolorous walls of returning travellers
who have been stranded in London
and on the Continent pending the
sailing Of ships which have been
held up.
II there is anything more depressing
than listening to the described joys of
returned voyagers it is the forced at
tention to their tales of varying woes.
Truly there is some good In staying
home. One gets more used to the
daily repetition of joys and sorrows.
Numerous correspondents have
asked us what a faLcal voice is. II
will be remembered in the Lexicon
contest of last week that we said "the
farmer approached with taucal voice
"Fauca" means "hoarse" or "rau-
cous," throaty." The history Of the
word is interesting. It's root, "foc" is
allied 10 the voc" as in vocal" ''Vo-
ciferous" shows also the root word in
its explosive tense.
In the Latin or Romance languages
such as Spanish, Italian and the like
the "" is interchangeable with "b'
as is shown in Havana-Habana.'
Hence we have voc" and Doc" az
correlatives. This is curiously noted
in the use Of doc" as a name for 9

cation of DR.. Wiley. Doc" or book

Delaware because of the enactment of the public

view be correct, take out their spite on Chester,
make that city suffer punishment for something

the correct theory. We are inclined to take the
view that the company needs the money, and this
is the explanation made by the company's officials.
