Mr.. Miller disclaims any credit, but
proof Of his aggressiyeness as treas

During the spring months Of the new
fiscal year the hospital has met its eX-
peases, owing to the wise management
of its finances. Mr.. Miller had nothing
to say as TO that, but he was much
concerned over future needs.
The Delaware Hospital is planning 10

Delaware Hospital receives an appro-
priation Of $1,000 from City Council
and $500 from the county, for care Of
city and county patients. The expenses
Of such patients to the hospital is
$1,000 yearly and is the chief cause Of
an annual deficit The expenses OF the
free clinics are also very large.
The running expenses Of Delaware
Hospital are about $4,000 annually.
and its chief source Of revenue is its
endowment fund. The fund is increased
by bequests left to the institution. Dur
ing the past year, bequests amounting
TO about 100000. have added $1,000 to
the annual income Of the hospital.
The directors are delighted that the
year has begun so favorably, so that the
hospital can increase its work for those
unable to meet fully the cost Of medi-
clnes and treatment instead OF cur
failing any OF its charitable activities.

the meagre resources which we. as
citizens Of Delaware, have placed at
their disposal We must all agree that
our direct dealings with men in public
life in this State have exhibited, on
their part, a desire to do right and TO
accomplish what is best for the com.

OF all kinds OF laxity, mlsmanagemens

1t is my earnest recommendation
that the collective efforts, organized
as the result OF this meeting, be di-
rected TO the betterment Of conditions
but in concert with the men who have
been placed in positions OF authority
and responsibility. II we as citizens
OF Delaware have provided them too
scantily in money, time or opportunity

deficiency until such time as the State

I'VE should endeavor to place the
different subjects in which we propose
to interest ourselves, in the hands Of
committees whose members
have time and inclination to follow
their calling, primarily with interest
and enthusiasm and, secondarily, with
already acquired knowledge on the

WASHINGTON, July 9--Already de-

counsel with his cabinet as TO the per-
sonnel Of the mission TO be sent to that
stricken land.
This mission will be backed by a po-
lice force Of Allied soldiers. Supplies
it decides to send Russia will have
military police protection.
Each cabinet member was to submit
the names Of able men TO form the
commission and from that list the
President Will make his choice. He
desires a representative group of
Americans whose sympsthles and train
ing VIII help In the vast task Of put
ting Russia back on her feet
Meantime the British and French are
considering names OF men whom they
desire to add TO the business army.
The size Of the allied ''police force"
Is undetermined.
Military men say IL ought to be large
enough to be safe and successful
There ls some thought that the Ameri
can Allied contribution win be relative
y small and that II need arises later the
Japanese will give their assistance.
All authorities carefully avoid the
use Of the term military intervention
In discussing the plan. They insls. the

be an inspiration TO the Russians to
help themselves.
Any extensive naval operations along
the Murmansk coast are doubtful. as
naval opinion is rather strong against
that. At present the proposal is to
send soldiers In through the eastern
ioor.
