CHANGE STREET NAMES
ONLY In JULY, AUGUST

A Wilmington street can change its
name only In July and August This
Is a serious fact There Is a city law
in good standing which says so.
Whether the promulgatOrs OF this law
thought a street would catch cold II
II changed its name in winter or
whether they thought July and Aug
ust were lucky months for naming
streets. has not been disclosed.
Anyhow. Il is because OF this law
that the Street and Sewer Directors
have not met the wishes OF the city
by giving some prominent highway
the honored title OF Lafayette"
The Street and Sewer Directors an
nounced this morning that they have
every intention OF thus honoring the
son OF France as soon as
they lawfully can. They are Of the
opinion that the street now known as
"The Boulevard" would be flttlngly
called Lafayette Boulevard" There
will soon be another. boulevard In the
western part OF the city, making a
distinction necessary. For the western
boulevard they suggest the name
Bancroft Boulevard.

NO PARKING AT
NINTH AND MARKET

George W. Sparks, president. gave
notice q a resolution prohibiting all
auto parking on Ninth street between
Market and shipley streets, at the meet
ing Of the Street and Sewer Department
today The prohibition will apply all
twenty-four hours Of the day.
The directors expressed the opinion
that Ninth street Is the most dangerous
thoroughfare In the city, because Of its
congestion OF swift-moving traffic.
The cuggestion made by the Manu-
facturers Association to confne the
parking to one side Of Ninth street Is
open 90 the objection, said the dlrec-
tors, that whichever side is chosen,
property holders on that side will con-
slider IL an injustice. The alternative
suggestion made by the Manufacturers
Association, to make Ninth street a one
way street, also presents difficulties. ac-
cordins to the board. Logically, they
say, Ninth street Is a westbOund street.
but In that case Eighth street would
have TO be devoted TO eastbound traffic.
which would cause it 10 run in an oppo-
site direction TO the West Eighth street
cars.
The completion OF the paving on Del
aware avenue will divert traflc to that
street from Ninth street. There may be
considerable less traf1c on Ninth street.
thereafter. Consequently the Street and
Sewer Directors will wait until the paw
ing on Delaware avenue is completed
before deciding the Ninth street one
way question.

NEW YORK, oct 22.-Allled occupa-
tion OF Germany for at least three or
four years Is an essential condition OF
any kind Of permanent peace, according
TO Stephano Lauzanne, member OF the
French Commission IN the United
States.
Commenting upon the German note
today, NJ. Lauzanne said:
Germany. today even in her present
extremity, says her actions In France
and Belgium are In accordance with
international law. Perhaps the Ger
man people still think such barbaritles
are part OF the natural consequences
Of war. The German people must be
cured OF such beliefs. The only way
to cure them Is 10 permit them 70 have
taste OF military occupation in their
own country.
unless the Allies and the United
States keep an army OF occupation In
Germany; unless Allied troops march In
Berlin; unless the German people have
French. British and Americans quar-
tered In their homes as we have had
German officers In our homes for four
years; unless we can Impose such force
war 20 night over again In twenty years
for the Geramns will not be cured OF
their insane worship OF force.
These people understand force only.
Very well, let us talk to them 10 their
own language. German women must
be made TO clean the boots Of English,
American and French officers for a
couple years at least, even as our wom-
en- have had 70 clean German boots.
Their tactics are In accord with in
ternatlOnal law, they say. They are
all right. Very well, let the junkers
turn over some OF their castles and
fine homes 20 Allied troops OF occu-
patton for a while. II some Of the
furniture should be a little SCARED as
a result that would be all right. II
would be no worse than furniture In
French and Belgian homes occupied by
German troops.
II do not ask this as revenge. II Is
not a question OF exacting Justice, II
IS merely that we must have a guar
antes that Germany will not again at
tack peaceful nations. II there were
no Allied occupation OF Germany, what
would the Germans at home know OF
war?
"They have suffered a few pains OF

NO REDUCTION
in FOOD PRICES
Instead Coffee Cups Are
Smaller, Minced Ham"
10 Cents More
PHILADELPHIANS
TOO, NOT BENEFITED

Wilmington patrons continue to find
prices and food an interesting study 81
the sO-called popular priced restaurants,
whose prices are getting more unpopu-
lar every day. II the coffee has not
changed TO 10 cents a portion, the cups
have been changed for stoneware three
sizes smaller and quarter Of an inch
thicker.
The oreamed minced ham is only 10
cents higher a portion, but the dish is
really gristle and -four gravy.
Eatables climb the scale few cents
at a time, or shrink by slight degrees
In size, so that the process VIII be as
little prominent as possible In tue minds
Of patrons.
Delaware can derive a sad satisfaction
in knowing that the cut In restaurant
prices, ordered in Pennsylvania by the
Food Administration Of that State, has
proved a farce. Some Of the ways In
which Philadelphia restaurants have got
even on enforced cuts in prices are re-
lated rs follows:
Any smiles Of qualification that flit-
ted across the customers faces van
ished when they were Informed that
bread and butter, which had heretofore
been served with the same dishes,
would cost five cents extra.
Another group Of restaurants has new
menu cards ct the tables today. Regu-
lars at the restaurants find little other
change. The prices. with the exception
OF one or two things, are IDENTICAL with
those charged previously.
Here is another sweeping reduc-
tIon"-nye cents of for a breakfast
platter. Inspection reveals toast is
crossed on the order, In accordance with
a new regulation. But you can find IL
on the menu-price ten cents.
The order Of the food rulers bringing
back the fve-cent coffee. tea and milk
Is generally observed IL the customer
Is careful. Some restaurants never in
creased the prices; others did. A visit
20 one OF the latter establishments
showed a change in price providing you
bought something else. Coffee alone
cost ten cents.
Scanning the menu in hope to find a
reduction of prices where bread and
butter were not served proved unavail-
ng. Such edibles continued the same.

EVERYBODY MUST
WORK NEXT WEEK

The Compulsory Work Bureau Of the
State Council OF Defense suspended
many Of its active measures against
idlers and slackers during the influenza
epidemic. Early in the epidemic, the
bureau realized the pathOs Of many a
mans situation. A man would be re-
norted tO the bureau as an absentee
from his work. The investigation made
by the bureau sometimes revealed that
the man had members OF his family
lying dead at home, stricken by the
pneumonia. Another Investigation would
disclose that a man was acting as nurse
for an entire household who were in
fluenza victims. Stlll other cases were
those Of men who had the sickness
themselves. Under all the circumstances,
the bureau has not felt that 1t could
act as Il would under normal cOndi-
tions.
Next week, the Compulsory Work
Bureau expects 20 return TO routine in
IT'S system OF checking up the slackers.
The total number Of names upon the
bureau records is now over $500.
