old HENLOPEN LIGHT

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL,
LEWES, Del, Dec. S.-During the
storm yesterday the old Cape Hen
lopen lighthouse. at the point of the
capes, which has been seriously un-
dermined the past score of years by
tides, was cut away more than forty

Large groynes and jetties have been
built at the foot Of the lighthouse this
summer but they were as nothing and
were soon washed away, causing the
water to undermine the lighthouse
The groynes being built at the Marine
Hospital were also washed away while
other work being done there at the
present time suffered some.
The land between the new Lewes
canal and the beach front is COW

flooded TO a depth of from five to ten
inches. No damage has been report
ed to vessels anchored in the Break

Nations DEFENSE
NOT neglected,
President SAYS

final session OF the 63rd Congress.
This was the real business opening
OF the regular short winter session.
There was much interest in advance
as to whether the President would
acQuiesce IN the opinions OF the lead
ers and agree that legislation should
be held down to the big appropriation
bills until they wero out OF the way.
Although formal addresses by the
President are now regular thing,
the popular interest continued in
tense. Admission today was, as usual,
by card, and the pasteboards were
in great demand For the most part,
because Of the limitations on the
space, the audience was composed Of
members of the families of the legis-
lators and their intimate friends. The
public as represented by MIR. and Mrs.
Common People had to content itself
largely with standing outside of the
Capitol building in the gray damp
weather, hopeful of catching a
glimpse of the President as he was
whisked to the main entrance and
hurried back to the White House after
his address was completed.
With the message out of the way
Senate and House planned to throw
the machinery into the high speed
and start the legislative program i'm
mediately.
