ColumbusJat- their council rooms. -
Whereas. the l.. :. Government en-
tered into a war with Germany and
her allies, to bring about the freedom
af the world from the oppressive hand
OF mllitarlsm; and in order TO bring
said issue 20 a successful c0nclus on
required the finest type Of youth and
manhood in our grand and glorious
country, and
where's, the call 20 arms brought
forth an immediate response from the
entire country, showing the true and
patriotic feeling Of our population and
resulted in the entry into the United
states military and naval service Of
the best that our country had, to at
tain the ideals for which this country
entered the war, and
Whereas, the entry into the vari-
Gus branches OF the service by our
boys and men in defense Of our coun-
try. necessitated in most cases the
sacrifice OF home luXuries, lucrative
positions and the leaving Of home,
friends and relations, with the deci-
sion to, II necessary, make the great
sacrifice, and
Whereas. The wonderful spirit ana
fighting ability exhibited by our boys
has brought the war TO a. successlul
victorious conclusion, and has placed
before the world, as q goal toward
Wiich the rest Of il may strive, the
tue ideals Of AmericG and now That
their work has been so nobly DONE
Glese BOYS are being demobilized az a
rate which throws an excess Of men
on the country for the positions which
are vacant; and places them in the
position where the majority Of those
not obtaining work will have, at least
temporarily, no means Of self-support,
excepting what the Government may
give them 10 tide them over their
period Of unemployment, and
Whereas, The best that can be given
20 them is only a small token and rep
sesentation Of the high esteem and
love that We hold for our boys for
their noble work
1T is hereby resolved, The Secretar-
'es OF War and Navy and the Congress
II the United states and the Cohgres-
sional Representatives from the STATE
Of Delaware, be requested 10 strive TO
10 everything in their power to- obtain
Tor the boys discharged from the ser
vice as large an amount Of extra pay
as is compatible with the sacrifices that
these boys have made and still have TO
make, having in mind n minimum Of
six months pay, and that legislation
be passed prohibiting the charging by
anyone OF any fees for assisting these
boys in obtaining whatever extra pay
The government decides TO grant
them.
1t Is Further Resolved, That a copy
OF these resolutions be sent TO the
Of War and Navy. the Con
gressional Representatives from Della

OF Wilmington, and TO the Supreme
