NEW PROGRAM WORK

The community committees of the
New Castle County Farm Bureau
should begin to think about their new
program cf work. During the month
of November a meeting of each COM
ittee will be held to adopt the commu.
nifty program of work and plan for the
farm buteau membership campaign for
the ensuing year.
At each of these meetings which will
probably be held in home, each COM
mitteeman will report the achievements
in his line of work during the past year
and make recommendations for new
work to be taken up. These reports
will be summarized into a community
program of work.
The membership campaign is always
an interesting topic at these meetings
Each community will 1e divided into
districts and committeeman made re-
sponsible for interviewing every farmer
within the district incident to becoming
! a member of the farm bureau.
1t is appreciated that often times the
ermers of the community are not fam
r with the program of work as
pted by their committee. To facili-
better understanding of the farm
ea1 work during the coming year a
meeting will be held in each COM
ty where the program of work as
ted by the committee will be dis
ID and amended. The executive
hit'ee recommends that wherever
lie that these mass meetings be
conjunction with the subordi-
ranges and the farm bureau and
may cooperate in perfecting
Eeloping the program of work in
OIs communities.

COLLEGE NEEDS 100000

With q total enrolment of 428 stu
dents, of whom 2l4 are new students,
Delaware College and the Women's
College, with all departments overtax-
ed, are confronted with the necessity of
a fund estimated at 100000, to make
ends meet during the next two years;
and an appeal is being made by the
alumni and trustees to the friends of
the colleges throughout the state to
raise this sum before November l.
The money is to be spent to pay new
instructors whom it has been necessary
to employ at once, to provide for the
increase of salaries necessary to hold
together the present staff in the face
O. the competition of better endowed
colleges, and to put up temporary
engineering building.
The engineering department, with
ITO students as against 73 only five
years ago, is the most seriously cramp-
ed. It has already been necessary to
shorten the workshop and laboratory
periods, and to take over much needed
classrooms from other departments.
To relieve this congestion temporarily,
it is proposed to transfer to the Green
q frame building used at Carney's
Point in wartime. The cost Of moSing
and assembling this building and fitting
it with machinery will be about $50, 900.
Work on this transfer will be begun as
soon as the fund is assured.
The college finds itself crippled by its
own growth and continuing high costs
at time when it is extending its pub
lie usefulness in many directions. The
extension work of the agricultural de-
partment throughout the state, the
opening of extension night courses in
Wilmington this week, the new school
at the Women's College for the train
ing of Delaware teachers within the
state, and the work of the summer
school along the same line, are signifi-
cant of the effort of the colleges not
only to educate the coming generation,
but to render service to the public
directly.
The Emergency Fund will not be used
to provide for expansion or new de-
velopments, but is represented as
Immediately necessary to enable the
colleges to hold their own.

U. S. Regulation Of
Rail Employees With
Companies Is Urged

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Demands
that railroad employees submit to gov
eminent regulations as do the COM
panies was made by President B. NJ.
Robinson, today at the convention
here of the American short line rail-
road association.
In view Of the reckless extrava-
gance" of the government in all its
business, Mr. Robinson said, the de-
lnand for railroad economy was "ridic-
ulous." He denounced the claim Of
Sis, 900 900 saved in the first year Of
government operation as unjustified
and charged that, in fact, government
operation caused deficit of one mil
lion dollars every day in the first six
teen months of government control.
while government regulations of
the carriers is extended to the most
minute DETAIL he said, "the employees
are left to exercise their own sweet
will. which they often do in a most
autocratic way. Wage demands have
absorbed already the one billion dol
lar rates increase which is being paid
by the public"

For great many reasons 1t is

If any, reduction in the cost of living
for cSme time.
Undoubtedly prices never will re-
turn to pre-war levels.
There are some very substantial
reasons why they viii not recede,
which may be summarized as fol-
lows:-
Enthusiastically there is worldwide
movement among the laboring classes
toward higher wages and shorter
hours. The standard of living among
the masses of the people is rapidly

age of food. In all European coun-
tries there have been tremendous re-
auctions in the herds of food animals.
Furthermore, it is estimated that
since the signing of the armistice 2oo,-
100000 additional people have become

twelve BATTLESHIPS
RELIEVED FROM DUTY
tBy Associated press)


WASHINGTON, June 3.-Twelve
pre-dreadnaught battleships will be re-
lieved of active duty with the fleet,
placed out Of commission and probably
eventually broken up for junk or used
as targets by more modern vessels
under plans now being worked out
by the navy department. The ships
are of the mixed battery" type, and
are not considered to be OF any value
against latest type of fighting craft.
Four of the battleships, the historic
squadron comprising the Oregon, In
diana Iowa and Massachusetts, have
already been relegated to the scrap
heap. The remaining eight, apparent
ly doomed to the same fate, are the
Kearsage, Kentucky, Illinois, Alabama,
Wisconsin, Maine, Missouri and Ohio.
The twelve vessels, built between
1893 and 1901, represent total ex-
penditure for hulls and machinery
alone of more than $33V,000,000.
When placed out of commission they
will release for other duty approx
mately ten thousand enlisted men and
nearly four hundred officers.
The ships long ago outlived their
usefulness as combatant units in a
fighting fleet although when they were
built, they were among the most form
liable war vessels afloat. All of them
were used during the war with Ger
many as training ships or coast de-
tense units. Slow Of speed. with a
small coal capacity, inferior ordnance
equipment and insufficient protection
against present day projectiles, the
ships, If kept in commission would be
more of a liability than an asset, in
the opinion of naval experts. They
are armed with old type II and Is
inch guns in the main batteries and
eight inch guns in the secondary de-

LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT
By W. sTRAUs. Preidsns Amsiean Society for Thrift

food supply can be brought back to
place where all of these people will
be independent of this country for
their food supplies.
Besides the tremendous loss in man
power, which means loss in producing
capacity, there has been loss of ma
terial resources so prodigious as to be
absolutely beyond the grasp of the
human mind.
A noted British economist recently
stated that the total cost of the war
to all nations would exceed $3.50, 0OO,-
100000. During the Napoleonic wars
the index number of commodities rose
72 points in 60 years. In the recent
World War it rose 109 points in AZ
years. At the same time there has
been tremendous credit imitation, SO
that the purchasing power of the dol
lar has been tremendously depreci-
ated.
Thus the wealthy have suffered
heavy losses, and they, too, must prac-
tice thrift just the same as those who
are in moderate circumst ances.
All progress, both individual and
national depends on thrift. Through
saving alone can the new capital be
created with which our war bills are
to be paid. Men and nations alike can
fulfil their destinies only through the
practices of thrift.
Let us not be misled in the belief
that because the war is ended and
we have completed our final Liberty
Loan campaign we need no longer
practice thrift in America. This
virtue Is as much a necessity as it
ever was.
