a GOOD APPOINTMENT.
.om the Dover state News.

From the Dover State News.
Former Governor Charles R. Miller,
who counts his friends by the score
throughout the entire State Of Della
ware, has been appointed by Mayor
John w. Lawson, Of Wilmington, to be
chairman Of the committee TO erect a
community hall as a lasting memorial
TO the brave soldiers and sailors Of that
city who made the great sacrifice that
the war might be won. This is a
splendid appointment and one that will
not only meet with the approval Of the
people OF Wilmington but all Della
wareans as well. 1t is safe 10 say that
Mayor Lawson could not have selected
a better man to head the committee had
he searched the city or the State over
with a fine tooth comb. And II is also
safe TO predict that under Governor
Mlller's efficient direction. Wilmington
will get a memorial hall Of which II
will indeed have reason TO be proud.

CHICAGO LEADS In
FOOD ECON N0MIES

WASHINC ~, April i9. - Omitted
Press).-Chicago is the most economical
Of food among the nations big cities.
Chicago throws away less food, cuts
her potato peellngs most thinly, and
consumes crusts OF bread that make
rosy cheeks.
This Is indicated by a survey of gar
bage collection made by the Pittsburgh
Sanitary Commission, whose figures are
used by the government experts in di-
recting national campaigns for waste
elimination.
Washington, the survey shows, Is the
most prOdigal, since her municipal gar
bage pail each year contains 2i5 pounds
OF discarded food per inhabitant. Cleve-
land, with a discard OF i66 pounds per
person. is in the wasteful class. New
York, despite it's title as the big spend
ing town. discards only i57 pounds per
person. Chicago discards but 50 pounds
per person.
Municipal garbage pals Of some other
big cities contain: Baltimore, 2ii
pounds per person; Cincinnati, 233
pounds: Pittsburgh, 2s5 pounds, and
Kansas City, 299.
Chicago also leads other cities in low
costs on garbage collection. she pays
but i3 cents per capita for this service
each year st. Paul gets the work done
for II cents while Cleveland pays 81.
Cleveland, however. realizes more from
sale Of products made from the garbage,
since her income from this Is $500 per
ton, while that Of Chicago is but s4.2i.
Cleveland's high income from reduc-
ton products puts her ahead Of Chi
cago, expects found. in comparing net
cost Of collection, plus disposal. Cleve-
lands net cost is si.5i a ton, while that
of Chicago Is 1913.
Experts say Cleveland would be far
in the lead If she could reduce cOllec-
tiOn costs.

'You ask an indication Of my desire

reversal Of our constitutional practice

foreign affairs. I am confident that 1
am supported by competent constitu-

the initiative in directing the relations Of
our government with foreign govern

constitution in an advisory capacity

for only when sought by the executive
in regard to the explicit agreement with
foreign governments and the appoint
