Dupont Employees Got New Bonus

Saturday was a bully" day for both
stockholders and employees of the du-
Point Powder Company. The stock
holders received checks for the stock
they owned and the employees were
notified that they were to receive a
raise in wages, or salary.
The dividends checks were listed for
Saturday. and while the employees had
been hoping to receive a boost hnancl-
allv. vet they did not know when or
how much the company's financial
.angeI'' was going to award them.
During the war and ever before it,
the powder in order to inn
prove it's service and obtain and retain
the best workmen and workpeople in
stituted the bonus system. According
TO the announcement the former bonus
amounting to about 50 per cent. for the
smaller paid employees becomes now a
part of their regular salary.
In addition to this, there is another
bonus beginning now which will give
to employees making 500 a month, ~
per cent, and to those making S200 a
month. Is per cent. To those whose
salaries are $500 or more there is no
bonus.
As a consequence of this
ment, the employees began making new
plans for their own and their families
benefit. 1t was a case of smiles all
around the big building at Tenth and
Market Streets, Wilmington, among
offices occupied by the powder COM
pany.

No Need of Court

Wilmington has always had the bust
est municipal courts and a full work
house, with a need of a whipping post
in the State, but prohibition has put the
court. judges and jurors almost out of
work.
When the municipal court was called
in Wilmington oil Wednesday not a
prisoner was before the tribunal.
This is considered a record, the court
docket at various times before July 1
having held as many as fifty cases of
drunkenness, to say nothing of prison
ers charged with other crimes.
The seventy cells at police head
quarters were unoccupied all of Tues
day and Wednesday, not an arrest
having been made in the previous four
days.
When the court session was called to
order the only ones present were
Deputy Judge Finger, Police Captain
Kelleher and the court crier.

Peninsula Attracts Farmers From
West

A marked increase has been noted
in the lower part of the Delaware
Peninsula of Western farmers NOV
ing to that section. The lower part
of this State and the adjoining
counties of Maryland appeal particu-
larry to the western farmer.
Farmers from Kansas wheat fields
have been coming to the east as they
are unabl to stand the pace of the
west. They had to cultivate very large
farms, such as sections of $40 acres,
and were required to keep a great num-
till their fields. They are required in
most cases to grow only wheat.
The fact tina on the Peninsula the
farmer can raise practically everything
he eats, except sugar and coffee, is an
other thing that appeals to them. Be
ing near the industrial centre of the
country assures the farmer of an excel
lent market for his products.
Most of these m are bringing
their western stock with them and an
addition to the dairy supply is
promised. They are also bringing num-
bers of goats with them. The goats are
used extensively in the west. Their
milk has curative qualities for weak
lungs that makes it desirable.
The farmers now locating down the
Peninsula are the OF others
who will follow, it is believed.

Mr.. DUPONT Urges School Code

Pierre S. dupont, vice-president of
the State Board of Education, Tuesday
night addressed a meeting at Brandy
wine school house, near Brandywine
Springs, in advocacy of the new school
code. Mr.. dupont said the code might
not be all that is desired, but if defects
are revealed by experience they can be
remedied by subsequent legislation.
Mr.. dupont said that even if the tax
PAYERS are not satisfied with some
phases of the code they should at least
get behind good education and aid the
movement.
The storm of protests in the lower
part of the State, due to section of the
law requiring attendance for $50 days
by school children and the second and
most serious objection, necessitating
the payment of greatly increased taxes,
were treated at length by Mr.. dupont
He said taxes rave greatly increased
and in some places the tax rates have
been doubled.
One fault against the code is the
transportation problem. This alone the
speaker stated, would cost $4,000 this
year for rural New Castle county
schools.
Mr.. dupont said that he did not want
to the people into believing
that their tax would be cheaper, be-
cause under the new o they will be
greater than before.
This is to be expected, he said, be-
cause it is a costly process to rebuild
400 schools, which will be required in
this State. Mr.. DUPONT said he had
never been in but one school in the
State of Delaware until he was made a
member of the Board of Education.
The ode will not be forced upon the
people unless they want it," he added.
1.-THE Board cannot force it and there
is no intention to force it upon the
people. If we are mistaken we will
change it, if it takes five years to OBJ
lain a proper code" He appealed for
the people to get behind the educational
movement.
