MAKINC Delaware
INTO Thrift CLUB
War Savings Campaign Has
Been Carried Into Churches
of State
REV. s. G. Won BOSSE
TAKES 500 WORTH

The War-Savings campaign has beer
carried into the churches Of Delaware
where it is believed that the idea OF
thrift and its possibilities for good can
be better explained than anywhere
else. Next week is TO be observed as
thrift week, beginning with thrift ser
vices in all the churches next Sunday
Governor Townsend's proclamation,
calling upon the ministers to present
the subject to their congregations Is
one step in the plan Of the campaign.
The state director Of the War-Sav-
lngs committee has sent the following
letter TO every minister in the state,
and he has received assurances Of cor
dial cooperation from a great many Of
them:
1--WE are making Delaware into a
Thrift Club.
THE plan worked out Is being re-
celved with much enthusiasm. The
hope is that practically all Of our
population will be members.
we are sending you, under separate
cover, about 100 cards. which explain
the endeaVOr and we request your
prompt and active cooperation. Please
encourage the signing Of them, putting
the canvasser's name at the end of the
card and have them forwarded 10 this
Otilce
I'VE should very much like 10 know
how this impresses you. The best plan
seems TO be TO appoint an active church

One Of the first TO take action was the
Rev. s. G. Won Bosse. pastor OF Zion

Bosse not only made personal appeals

he set example by signing one OF the

Fabricated Ships.

America has turned out its first fabri-
Gated steel ship. She is the Agawan, OF
$500 lightweight tons, completion of which
by the Submarine Boat Corporation at
Port Newark. N. j., was announced by
Chairman Hurley of the Shipping Board.
The Agawan is in the nature of an exper-
iment and 1903 days were required for her
construction. Approximately q steel
mills, Sc fabricating plants and 200 foun-
dries, machine and pipe joiner and equip
ment shops produced parts for the hull
and machinery.
The Submarine Boat Corporation has
contracts for $50 duplicates of the Aga
wan and delivery of completed vessels is
expected at the rate of two or three
every week.
After all the above plants have install
ed the machinery for making that part OF
the ship which each is to make the vari-
GUS parts are sent to the shipyard and
the parts are put together. It follows

Senator Lewis has often assumed to
speak for the President, but probably in
this instance his only intent was to tickle
Mr.. Wilson's ear. There is no danger
that the Senate will pass these resolutions
because that body as whole, is not yet
on par with the Reichstag. 1t has not
yet become SO completely Kaiserized.
There are great many of our citizens
who believe that the mania for individual
power is increasing in this country to an
alarming extent. There is feeling that
economic and political sanity should rule
in the United States, in accordance with
fundamental axioms which almost CEN
tury and a half of experience has crystal
lied into something which has proved to
be safe and dependable. On the contrary,
Senator Lewis evidently believes that one
man should have entire control of
democratic form of government. One
man power is not to be tolerated in
republic. and it makes no difference
whether the man is Democrat or he
publican.
