lowing letter, in regard to the collect
ing Of peach stones and pits and other

be shipped to Washington:
Dover, Oct. %
Dear Teachers-For sometime Della
ware has been collecting and shipping
peach stones and pits Of other fruits
and shells Of nuts. believe IL is not
too late for the teachers to collect thou
sands of pounds of this material ALy
Of the materials on the list given below,
no matter how old, can be used, pro-
vided they are not decayed. No attempt
need be made 10 keep the various ma
terials separate, but they must be dry.
ut is not necessary TO extract the
kernel from such of the pits as con-
tain kernels, but for the sake of food
conservation, the shells OF hickory nuts.
walnuts ana butternuts alone should
be sent-the kernels being kept for
food.
"The government needs carbon 10
asks the boys and girls Of America to
save the pits of peaches, apricots,
plums, cherries and prunes and the
shells OF hickory nuts, walnuts and
butternuts.
Two hundred peach pits or seven
pounds Of nuts produce enough carbon
for one gas respirator.
Carbon is made from fruit stones
and nut shells.
1T may be that many peach stones
can yet be picked up in peach orchards.
Let the children investigate. Don't
wait too long before sending your sup
ply to Washington.
Yours truly,

When the Bethlehem group was given
the big contract It wac intended to
make the Alameda plant a transport

i2. 600 deadweight tons were TO be built.
Early in the summer it was seen, ac-
cOrding TO officials. that the first troop

APPEAL MADE To
DELAWARE VOTERS
Non-P artisan League Asks
That Republicans be
Supported
CIRCULARS ARE
BEING SENT OUT

The Voters Non-Partisan League hi
prepared a circular setting forth WI
the wOrkingmen should vote for =
L. Heisler Ball and Or. Caleb r. Layto
Republican nominees for senator ar
Representative in Congress RESPECTIVE
ly." The circular follows.
Peace may come upon us over
night. Just as did war. Shall we
be as unprepared to meet it?
Now is the time TO prepare for
reconstruction. For practical pur-
poses we can read The lesson for
tomorrow in the pages Of yester-
day
The Republican party is now
stenpously advocating peace pre-
paredness.
The Republican party realizes
that the problems OF peace will out
master the problems OF war. 10
realizes that the war is merely the
preliminary era from which this
nation is TO be projected into the
flercest economic strife Of all time.
There have been two bills intro
duced In Congress TO start the work
OF reconstruction. The Republican
bill proposes this TO be done under
the direction Of a bipartisan con-
gressional committee Of twelve
members.
The Democratic bill refers the
work TO a committee TO be appoint
ed arbitrarily by the President.
The Democratic bill would thereby
result in delay and procrastination.
while the very essence Of recon
struction work is expedition. Tie
Democratic bill would continue TO
centralize in the President in peace
times, the same extraordinary pow
ers that are exercised by him dur
ing the war. We may thus reduce
Congress to q debating society as in
the case OF the German Relchstag
or the old Russian Duma.
No matter how wisely this CEN
tralized power might be exercised
by one man, we will have lost our
constitutional guarantee Of true de-
mocracy, perhaps for all time. II II
be conferred upon him.
The Republican party alone is
competent TO construct the bridge
across which the nation may safely
pass from a victorious war TO a
prosperous peace.
II Is obviously the party for re-
construction, and we therefore urge
the workingman to vote for the Re-
publican candidates for Congress.
lt is obviously the duty OF every
wage-earner who now is making
good wages and, with his family,
living in greater comfort than ever
before. to protect those wages and
those vital home interests. by vot-
ing for the candidates Of that party
which always has stood for good
wages and high standards OF liv-
ing.

HUNS Will KNOW
ARMISTICE TERMS
tContlnned from nage ono }


by impending developments as to Ger
many. That the armistice terms would
be presented to Germany soon was the
indication here. But, whether or not
final peace terms would accompany Il
as rumored in press dispatches. was not
revealed here. II was believed un-
likely
In any case, il was said that there
will be prompt conclusion of the i'm
portant negotiations at Versailles as the
conferees are now in fun accord on the
general underlying principles Of peace
and armistice terms.
Their slate was practically written in
advance, and the terms thereof are as
outlined several times by. the United
Press. However. one point still remains
obscure here, namely, the extent to
which the naval demands will go.
The original ticket was that Ger
many would have TO give up her sub
marine feet and permit occupation Of
her grand fleet pending the outcome Of
the final peace negotiations. British
pressure may have altered that for
press dispatches from abroad now sug-
gest that surrender Of not only the
U-boats, but the grand fleet will be re-
quired.
Austria's note of yesterday will prob
ably be forwarded to Versailles at once.
Her supplementary appeal, from Count
Andrassy, the new foreign minister. 90
Lansing, is unusual. Diplomatic pro-
cedure ordinarily would require that
she ask neutral TO aid rather than
ask an enemy Secretary Of State direct
for his good offices
The semi-ofilcial Austrian explana-
tiOn TO the press that her appeal need
not imply that she was asking for a
separate peace apart from Germany was
interpreted here merely ss a feeble ef-
fort to show that Germany and Aus
tria are still united. However, the ex-
planation showed that what was wanted
was a separate peace-in the interest Of
general peace.
President Wilson has said that the
Czecho and Jugo-Slavs must be salts
fed with the peace outcome. The
Czecho-Slovak National Council is
TO insist on nothing short
OF unconditional surrender Of Austria
Hungary, with complete military and
political evacuation Of the Hapsburg
regime from Czecho, Jugo, Pole and
Italian territory.
