CITY IS TO PROBE
BREAD WEIGHTS
Charge Denver Bakeries Are
Selling ''ShOrt" LOaves
Councilman Spacey Brings Matter Up
at the Council Meeting Monday
Night and Secures Action

Councilman Thomas o. SPacey, labor
representative in the City Council, is out
after the Denver bakeries for selling
short weight leaves of bread. He brought
the matter up at meeting OF the Coun-
ell Monday night, thru a report of the
committee on fire, police and excise, of
which Councilman Spacey is chairman,
and Manager OF Safety Bailey was In
structed to see that the ordinance
against short loaves Is strictly enforced
City Attorney Marsh, in an opinion to
Councilman Spacey, declared that the
ordinances require a single loaf to weigh
10 ounces avoirduPOis. Personal investi.
cations by members of the committee
disclosed that loayes from a number of
bakeries ranged in weight from llA to
1917 ounces.
They also found that wrapped loaves
did not disclose the weight of bread. as
required, and that there was no stamping
on unwraPped loaves giving their weight,
as the city ordinance demands.
The sample loaves bought by the com
mittee were weighed by the sealer or
weights and measurs.
Concluding that a number of the pro-
visions of the ordinance on the subject
are not being followed" the committee
expressed the opinion that 'if said ordi-
nance is valid, it should be enforced" !"
The recommendation therefore was made
that the entire subject be put in the
hands of Manager of Safety Bailey with
the request that he investigate alleged
violations and enforce all provisions Of
the ordinance. This Recommendation was
adopted by Council.
Councilman Spacey's investigations fol-
lowed receipt of a complaint from V. De-
vinney OF Edgewater that the weight Of
a loaf of bread he bought in Denver was
less than the weight stamped on the
wrapper.

Bridge Opens New Route

The Kent County Levy Court
has purchased the trolley bridge
across the Brandywine at Pine
street, Wilmington, and will rect
it over Leipsic Creek at Leipsic,
thus opening another fine road
route from Dover to Wilmington
over improved roads which have
not been available for long dis
lance travel owing to lack of con-
nection. From Dover one will be
able to travel to Leipsic, across
the new bridge, on fairly good
road to Fleming's Landing, on
Smyrna River. Thence into New
Castle county over improved roads
to Taylor's Bridge and Odessa,
thence to st. Georges and on to
State road through Farnhurst to
Wilmington. Sections of the new
route not improved will likely be
resurfaced. The sbridge will be
loaded on two barges and trans
ferred to a large railroad car
barge and fioated down the Della
ware to Leipsic Creek.

sued them through the tall weeds
and over the yielding ground.

not fired BLANKS" Mrs. Jarrel
would have been a dead one"
