LEGISLATORS TO
CONSIDER change
IN ELECTION LAW

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, Del, Oct THE two
houses OF the Delaware Legislature re-
s'une, reading Of the proposed new re-
vised code here today at an early hour
the House starting at $50 o'clock and
the Senate at o'clock. both continuing
from the recess taken at o'clock yes
terday afternoon.
The Senate concluded the reading of
the fourth volume. which ended 1855
pages, and began the reading of volume
five, and up to the noon hour had read
l2l pages Of that volume.
In the House. the reading of volume
three was continued and was completed
during the noon hour
During the reading Of the primary
and general election laws as well as the
registration laws i'm volume three, the
question was raised as to the meaning
of the appointment of inspectors or reg
istrars by the Department of Elections
of the city Of Wilmington and whether
the registrars so appointed were also
inspectors of the election, as had gem
orally been considered.
That part of the law reads as fol.
lows;
"That the inspectors of election Tor
the city of Wilmington shall hereafter
be appointed by the Department of
Elections for said city in the month
of June in each year in which general
election is held"
H. H. Ward, code commissioner,
was called upon to explain the mean
ing of the law in which he stated
that there had been some uncertainty
as TO the appointment of such in
spectors by the Department Of Elec-
tions of the City of Wilmington For
that reason it was thought best to
clear the matter up, he said. Acting
on this suggestion, Representative
Grantland moved that this particular
section, section two, OF chapter 49,
be referred to the committee on re-
vised statutes, which was done.
On the question of publication of
notice of an election ten days be-
fore such election is held there was
some discussion as to The daily and
weekly newspapers, the decision
finally being reached that where
there was daily paper such notices
should appear in il, and that where
there was no daily paper. a weekly
paper would answer the purpose.
In one other part Of the same sec
tion relating to the newspapers, il
was discovered that the word
Papers" was used instead of News
papers, This brought forth some
remarks against the newspapers.
Representative GrantlanG said that
there We're some papers in Whining
ton, but not always News" papers.
Speaker Holcomb added, Eyes, more
generally political papers. After
this matter had been adjusted the
reading of the volume vas continued.
The completion of the reading of
volume three in the House was ac-
complished at 1920. Volume four
was at once began. In the Senate
at 1870, 142 pages OF volume five
had been read.

TODAY 5 MOVES
IN THE WAR ZONE;
What THEY MEAN
BY J. W. II. MASON,
Former European Manager of the
United Press.

NEW YORK, Oct. I'll a. M
The critical position in which the
German westehn battle front will find
itself il the allies succeed in heavily
massing troops along the Belgian
border, is indicated by the appear
ance of a strong German mounted
corps at Lille and the continued
violence of Won Kluck's attack along
the Disc. Both have the same objec-
tive; to interrupt the Anglo-French
northern concentration and prevent
its use for a movement eastward to
cut the German communications.
The German cavalry at Lille is un-
doubtedy accompanied by motor car
artillery This device newly created
by the Germans, permits heavy guns
to keep pace with quick moving
mounted troops for the first time in
warfare. By turning loose the guns
before the cavalry advances en-
masse, the offensive power of the
hOrsemen is greatly Increased.
These tactics, which, it is surmised
were first used effectively by Won
Kluck during his advance Oh Paris,
are probably appearing again, at the
same spot. on the FrancO- Belgian
frontier border that saw their ORR
ginal employment
The Germans, who have never shown
special genius for cavalry strategy,
have overcome their natural handicap
in part, at least, by attaching the
highly mobile motor artillery to their
mounted corps. The degree of eff
cheney shown in co-ordinating these
two opposite arms of service will
mark the effectiveness of German re-
sistence at Lille.
Il is very improbable that the allies
are running serious risk of being out
fianked at the northern end of their
battle line. The German mounted
force at Lille is said to number twen-
ty thousand, too small by far, to con-
duct fianking operations. Nevertheless,
as a diverting power, twenty thousand
cavalry with motor guns can be made
highly effective.
The cavalry leaders of our Civil
War, who revolutionized mounted tao
tics showed how disconcerting a fast
moving raiding body could be to
far larger number or less mobile
troops held to fix bases. The addi-
tion of artillery having a mobility
equal to the mounted troops. has enor-
mously increased this power.
The Germans at Lille. therefore.
while unable to inflict anything re-
sembling a crushing defeat upon the
allies, can seriously interrupt the de-
velopment of an offensive against the
German communications, and if the
