II will be the third or fourth world war
monument to be erected in this country
Henry Ridgely, leading Dover attor-
ney, was given the privilege Of the floor,
and while he did not oppose the plan
to erect monument he took the stand
that II would be inadequate TO properly
pay tribute to Delaware's sons and
daughters who served during the war.
He had petitions signed by several hun
dred citizens Of Dover requesting that
Instead Of putting the proposed monu-
ment on the Green, a north wing
Of the State House be constructed as
Ia memorial building, with a Hall OF
Fame containing the proper inscrip-
tions relative to Delaware's part in the
war.
Mr. Ridgely pointed out that the Del
aware soldiers went TO war to fight for
something practical, and that It would
only be right 10 erect a practical and
useful memorial, such as the proposed
addition TO the State House would be.
The State has already purchased the
County Building, north Of the State
House. and with the $4,000 asked for
TO provide a monument, with what
ever additional funds that may be nee
essary. the north wing could be con-
structed. He called attention 10 the
fact that 81 cities and towns are erect
ing monuments, and declared that Della
ware, as a sovereign State, should do
something more than a city or town is
doing. He Urged the members TO follow
the advice Of the governor In his mes
sage and do something worth while for
the soldier boys. Referring to the fact
that the State could not erect a mon
ument adequate for the purpose for
$4,000, he made a strong plea
that something more substantial and
lasting be accomplished.
Following the Soldiers Monument
Commission hearing, upon melton Of
Speaker Corbit, Captain C. B. Ballard,
U. S. A., OF Birmingham, Ala, now sta
toned at Baltimore. Md, in the vice and
liquor control law enforcement divis-
lon Of the War Department. was given
the privilege Of the floor, and made an
appeal 10 the members OF the
two houses 10 enact laws TO regulate
health conditions in this country. point
Ing out the vital necessity OF taking
such action now that the war is over.
Captain Ballard pointed out that when
his country called the men OF the ma
ion into service at the beginning OF
he war, 1t found a great part Of the
population disabled on account OF
llthy disease. He declared that eighty
'ut OF one thousand young men exam
ned were suffering with disease. and
hat the army regulations and sanitary
work had reduced this number to twen-
y In each thousand. He explained that
ow the war Is over the army officers
viii have no more jurisdiction in such |
ases, and that IL was now up to the |
tates to take IL up and continue the |
ood work that has been started.
The captain paid tribute TO the Amer
an soldiers, pointing out that the
nited States soldiers in Europe were
lean physically and morally, while
Lrse percentage Of other armies were
elpless with disease.

Austrian Republic
Facing Crisis On
Rights Of States

public is passing through a states
rights" crisis very similar TO that which
marked an earlier stage Of the American
republic Provinces are demanding
high degree OF independence from the
central government, and in some Of
them, such as the Tyrol and Upper Aus
tria and Stylria. Il amounts almost to
complete autonomy. If their demands
are eventually granted about the only
thing that would be left to the central
government would be foreign relations
and the regulations of foreign import
and export traffic and limited taxation
The states insist upon their right to
levy export duties on goods destined
for other states. Students OF the stu
alton say this Is merely a phase Of the
transition stage through which the new
republic Is passing and will gradually
cure itself.
