EDITORIAL OPINION

Board Of Education as 10 the estab-
fishing OF an afiliated college in Della
ware for women is an interesting artt-
Gle for the people to consider, and
for that reason we have printed the
report made by a special committee of
that body to the board at its meet
ing last week in Dover From the re-
port itself the impression is given,
that the establishment OF a college
tor women is to be rather expensive
as to buildings ct the start, but mod
erately costly in its maintainance.
This we think is the reverse Of what
the people expect from the real con-
ditions, and the matter will be treated
from that standpoint by the legisla-
ture next winter. That there must be
higher education for women in Della
ware, we believe every person who
knows anything Of educational mat
ters will admit and that it must
come now is certain, but the ways and
means will have TO pass through the
channels Of criticism and suggestion
before it arrives, a completed plan.

MEMPHIS OFFICIAL LAUDS
NEWARK TAXING SYSTEM
Visiting City Treasurer Ex-
presses Admiration.

That Newark's taxing system as
well as financial rating is regarded
as one of the best in the United
States was further proven today by
the declaration of Frank s. Omberg,
city treasurer of Memphis. Tenn.
The Southern official will spend sew
eral days in the city. He visited City
Treasurer Elmer A. Day, Tax Re-
ceiver Richard Franz and other Off
Gals.
II was In Buffalo and MI. Justice

the system in Newark, N. j., was

RAILROAD INQUIRY
HALTED BY COURT
Federal Grand Jury Suddenly
Dismissed as Books Are
Turned Over.

NEW YORK. Nov. 21.-The sudden
dismissal Of the Federal grand jury
which was to begin an investigation
into the twenty-five year trafic
agreement pending between the
Grand Trunk and New Haven rail-
roads to determine whether that
agreement was designed to restrain
interstate trade and commence in
violation Of the Sherman antitrust
law has created great surprise be-
cause all official explanation Of the
matter is lacking. Subpoenas had
been issued and witnesses we're pre-
pared to appear before the grand
jury to testify. These have been
withdrawn. and for the present there
will be no investigation.
It is said that Mr.. Wickersham's
action in calling off the inquiry was
due to the fact that President Mellen,
of the New Haven railroad, has an
nounced his willingness to submit his
books for the inspection of the Fed
eral officials and will show all data
concerning the proposed agreement.
This may eliminate the necessity for
an inquiry If it can be shown that
there was no intention to form a
monopoly in restraint of trade.
If not, the governments case will
be strengthened by the inspection of
the books and al investigation will be
ordered. Mr.. Wiekersham is also de-
sirous of a further conference with
the members of the Rhode Island
Public Utilities Commission and the
railroad commissioners of Massachu-
sets, who are still in Washington.
