HIGHWAY WORK CAN GO ON
IS WORD FROM WASHINGTON
U. S. HIGHWAY COUNCIL RE-
MOVES BAN ON MATERIALS
Word Comes Too Late to do Much
Good This Year, Plans Can be
Made For Early Spring Start

Chief Engineer Charles M. Upham,
of the State Highway Department,
has received the following telegram
from the United States Highway
Council: "The United States High
ways Council announces that no fur
ther applications need be made to it
for approval of highway projects, that
disapprovals previously made are re-
vOked, and pending applications will
require no further action. Procedure
as to securing materials and transpOr-
tation should follow normal practice. :"
While the ruling allows road construc-
tion to proceed unimpeded, it is too
late in the year to make any material
difference in the amount of work to be
competed in Delaware. 1t does, how
ever, make it possible to provide for
work next year. Engineer Upham
has also been notified of the change of
the time of holding the American As
sociatiOn of State Highway officials, to
have been held in Chicago, from Dec
ember to 6, inclusive, now changed
to December 9 to 13, inclusive. At
the Chicago meeting Delaware will be
represented by Engineer Upham, who
will discuss "Day Labor and Force Ac-
count Work Bonuses" He will also
have charge of a discussion on 'Prop-
er Engineering Treatment of Neces-
sary Railroad Grade Crossings"

ADDITIONAL STATE ITEMS

The causeway between Delaware
City and st. Georges was flooded last
week at high tide. Several automo-
biles were compelled to turn back and
go by way Of Clark's Corner to reach
Delaware City. The Port Penn cause
way has been impassablc to traffic
since April last, and no effort made to
make repairs to the river bank. So
many wild ducks have not been seen
around Delaware City for many years.
They rise in clouds as boats approach
them on the river. 1t is impossible to
get near enough to shoot. The only
successful gunners have been those on
the marshes.
The Milford Public Schools started
out with a full complement of teach
ers, but Prof. Nickle was offered sew
eral hundred dollars per year more
by a school in New Jersey, and so he
resigned" his position in Milford and
took the better paying place. 1t is the
same old story everywhere through
out the country. Rev. H. l.. Bunstein,
the president of the Board of Educa-
tiOn in Milford, is filling the position
for the present time and will continue
to do so until another principal can
be secured. The school question is
one which must engrOss public atten-
ton, and especially the attention of
the legislature during it's session this
winter.
Although word was received some
time ago that Captain Glider D. Jack
son, of Dover, had been wounded in
action, and that he was later cited for
bravery, it was not until a few days
ago that details were received by his
mother in the form of a letter from
Headquarters, U. S. Marine Corps
Commandant's Office, Washington, D
c., signed by Brigadier General
Charles S. Long, of the U. S. Marine
Corps. In this letter, General Long
points out that while Captain jackson
has been wounded in the face during
the attack on Bois de Belleau, on june
13, 1918, he continued to lead his pla
toon until the objective had beer
reached. For this act of bravery
Captain Jackson later received D.;
medal of honor. All DOverites are in
deed proud that one of DOver's owl
soldier boys should prove himself sucl
real soldier, and has reflected sucl
honor upon his home community b,
his heroism. Captain Jackson is
son of the late Glider d. Jackson, VIII

zens. He is a brother of Town Sup
