WHERE TO START
ON HARBOR WORK
Engineer Meigs Submits Two
Plans in Report for Start on
Wilmington's Port.

John Meigs, tho river ard harbor OK
pert of Philadelphia, in his report sub
mitted to the Harbor Commissioners,
suggests the development of the river
front living between Christiana river and
Pigeon Point, embracing In all 400 acres,
the diverting of the waters OF the Brandy
wine creek into the Delaware river and
the erection of piers, cold storage ware
houses and car storage yards on the south
side Of the Christiana river.
The report, which embraces more than
60 tvpewritten pages, is illustrated by
numerous maps and contains extracts
from the report OF n. III. Richardson,
who was employed by the Board OF Har-
Dor Commissioners TO make a commercial
and industrial survey of the city.
Mr.. Meigs, who is noted as an expert
on water terminals, submitted two plans,
each accompanied by maps. The first
plan would acquire by purchase or con-
dernnation the land lying along the
Christiana river near the Lobdell Car
Wheel Co. plant to Pigeon Point and
extending westward to the cutoff
of the p. b. Il W. Railroad Co. This
tract would embrace 400 acres. He sug-
gested that the Board of Harbor Commis-
sioners have complete control of the
same.
This plan. which is considered large
by Mr. Meigs, is followed in the report
by a smaller and more comprehensive
one. which provides for the acquiring
of 100 acres Of land extending from along
side the Lobdell Co. plant south bring
ing the terminal within the city limits.
II is also suggested that IN the upper
portion of this tract one covered pier
and two open ones be constructed to-
gether with a cold storage warehouse
and car storage yards. Spur tracks
would extend from these 10 the three
main trunk lines Of the railroads nearby
Along with this project il is suggested
that on the north side of the Christians
river, East Seventh street be widened
and paved TO the Delaware river ard
East Twelfth street he similarly i'm
proved. Under this plan Shellpot creek
would be made into canal and the upper
Brandywine creek diverted into tbs
Delaware river.
Relative to the city's only municipal
wharf at Church street, Mr.. Meigs' re-
port states that the city OWNS 600 feet
of water front there which is hulkheadec
and this, he suggests, be improved and
a market house be erected there at g
cost Of about $4,000.
The recommendations Of Mr.. Meigs
also suggest that the piers be made OF
lasting materials and the sheds OF steel
and concrete.
The estimate made by Mr.. Meigs for
these improvements. providing that the
necessary dredging would be done by the
government, was iteInized as follows;
Cost Of damages for acquiring
B.
Cost OF erecting piers, ware
houses and bulkheading and
constructing car yards =. 100, ,0od
Total 80 000 O0c

fidence in him.

dent Of the Board Of Education was
elected by 200 majority.

elected in three out of six wards in which
there were contests.

tee on Educstion, exclusive Of General
Service Board office and staff. were met in
full by the membership contributions OF
the Citizens Committee.
RELATION TO COOPERATING CITIZENS
COMMITTEES.
The General Service Board assumes no
undue credit for the kind of work done by
either of these committees. The men and
women who represented all the cooper
ating organizations, contributed work,
enthusiasm, and ideas. Principles, poll
cies, plans and conditions were all discuss
ed In open meetings and decisions arrived
at by majority vote.
The General Service Board Executive
Committee believes that few cities nave
had more energetic. intelligent, and widely
representative groups OF citizens behind
their progressive educational movements
than the cooperating committees which
took part in the Wilmington campaign
for better schools.
INCIDENTAL WORK.
AS an emergency measure, the use OF
the General Service Board offices was
rendered TO the Delaware Council OF
National Defense, both to the Mems
Committee and the Won MS Committee
The facilities Of the office and the ser
vices of the staff were devoted almost
wholly to the work of the Womens
Committee during the late summer and
early fall months.
The Offices have been used in most of
the departments of national service work
to date, including the food production
and gardening campaign. Hoover pledge
and food conservation, Liberty Loan,
child welfare program, etc.
Various movements of local organiza-
tions have also been assisted.

NOTICE SERVED ON
REPUBLICAN MACHINE
"Old Guard" Left High and Dry,
According to Morning
News.

According to today's issue of the Morn
ing News, Alfred |. du Points statement,
printed yesterday, has left the "old guard
in the Republican party high and dry"
The News SAYS:
Whether The Republican psrty shall
regain full power in the State of Della
ware depends entirely upon the willing
ness of the machine TO break away
from its disgusting tactics of the past
and come out for honest selections, thus
safeguarding the Will of the voters. This
seems to be the consensus of opinion OF the
rank and file of voters following the mes
sage delivered to the State G. .. P. by
Alfred l. du Pont of the Independent
Progressive Republicans whose memorable
fight against the machine In 1916 resulted
In the defeat of United States Senator
Henry A. du Pont for reelection. Only
praise was to be heard of the high-minded
statement OF the man who has resolved TO
purge the Republican party IN Delaware,
BY those who have the interest OF their
party genuinely st heart. That the dec
laration has left the old guard high
and drv without excuse for existence was
generally conceded, and the general yer
dict was that future Republican success or
defeat In Delaware rests entirely with
those who In the past have brought
discredit upon the party by their desire
to place self above party and who have
repeatedly thwarted the will OF voters.
The News also says, in the same be-
half:
Republicans generally point out that
the statement of Mr. du Pont leaves no
loop holes for excuses. In the first place he
points out the necessity OF having the best
of men IN charge of the government in this
crisis and that Delaware naturally beng 8
Republican State, should have such rep
resentation st Washington. Again he
points out that the coming campaign
presents an opportunity to strengthen
Republican representation in both branch
es of Congress, and states that anv good
Republican qualified TO represent the
State ID the United States Senate will meet
with his approval. This carries with il the
proviso, however, that such a candidate
must not be dominated Ii the slightest de-
gree by any political machine or group
of individuals. This provIso seems TO have
met with general approval judging from
comments to be heard about the city
Yesterday, for it is asserted that future
rarty success demands the breaking away
from the support OF such candidates as
there must be other departures.
