MAKING PROGRESS
ON TRUST BUILDING
Lower Floors Ready for Inside
Workers While Upper Stories
Are Completed.

Notable progress on the enclosing OF
the structure of the new banking build
ING for the Delaware Trust Company Is
being made just at present. The stone
work of the three lower stories Is all set
and the brick work is goirg along rapidly
under the hands of large force OF brick
LAYERS.
The photograph herewith reproduced
is of interest for several reasons, the CHIEF
one being that no other unobstructed view

walls of this are rising rapidly behind the
protectirg & fierce and temporary arcade

tower over the middle tier of windows
seem higher than the roof of the adjacent
three story brownstone house adjoining
on the south, which then occupied part
of the side of the new bank building.
The fact that these towers show, as
they do, beyond the corner OF the new
building brings out another point namely
the increased width of the street, due TO
setting back the new front several leet
beyond the customary building line. This
viii probably set the fashion for the rest
OF the block front on Market street, max
ing the width OF that thoroughtare uni
form from Eleventh to Ninth street.
Another thing to be noted Is the adop-
tion of the practice of the larger cities
in protecting the sidewalk by an arcade,
during building operations, the roof serving
as a scaffold from which work on the
walls can be carried on and where materials
can be received and stored, and an office
shantv placed for the clerk OF the works.
The expenditures of a relatively small sum
I'm addition to the bare structural cost, on
paint and lattice work principally, gives
an ornamental touch to what would other
wise present raw and unfinished aspect,
if not positive eyesore.
At the rate of progress now being made,
there is every prospect OF the building
being ready for occupancy by the end OF the
the Fail season 1t is understood that
practically the entire office space OF the
building Is under lease or option.

TRAFFIC LAW VIOLATIONS.
Gratifying Decrease is Seen by Local
Traffic Officers.

A gratifying decrease in traffic viola
tions handled by the local police force is
shown by the fact that durng the seven
months previous to July /, 1920 there
were las arrests as compared with
statistics for the corresponding period
previous to July l,1919 during which 1sI
arrests were made.
An increase is noted, however, in cases
handled during June, 1920, when there
wereS39 cases as compared with 27 cases
in June 1919. Thirty-one of the offenders
in June 1920 were fined.

Marine Insurance in Maine

Governor Miliiken recently received a
letter from the subcommittee of the
United States Shipping Board and Mer-
chant Marine and Fisheries committees
in relation to marine insurance. the
idea being that some states are showing
q lack Of interest in and lack Of force
in meeting the activities of foreign ma
rine insurance companies in securing
the business IN this country: that there
has been unjust discrimination and lack
of cooperation on the part OF the states
in their treatment Of American COM
panies authorized to write marine insur-
ance. subjecting them to unnecessary
restrictions. thus preventing a more lib
eral and broader expansion Of this spe-
cial form of insurance: and appealing
to the several governors for the es;ao-
lishment of uniform regulations and
laws. asking the views of the various
states and what might be accomplishe1
by legislation.
It is not understood that any specific
charge is made against the Maine laws
or regulations. Governor Milliken sub
mitted the matter to Insurance Commits
sioner Smith, who has carefully been
over the entire matter so far as it re-
CARDS Maine and reported to the gov.
ernor.
Commissioner Smith in letter to the
subcommittee assured them that
Maine has been and will be liberal with
marine insurance companies and that no
ha ndships had oeen imposed by regula-
tons or restrictions. This is proved by
the success Of two home companies
building up reasonably profitable bust
nesses. 1t has been the policy to re-
move any restrictions that proved trou.

her ability. It would seem that any
man ought to be content with such a
wife as that and Barbara tries to

lowing him all kinds of freedom. He
attributes this to a lack of interest in
him and whole lot of things happen
as a result. Not only does Miss Tai
madge have number of big scenes,
but she is called on to wear some ex-
ceptionally beautiful gowns that show
off her rare beauty.

Il did not say we have solved the
rural school problem and that we
are paying a minimum Of $500 to ru-

substance as follows
The rural school situation presents
our greatest problem, the hardest to
solve and perhaps the most import
ant because Of its connection with
The conservation of our food produc-

country boys and girls a square deal
we bust give them as good teachers
as can be found. The country teacher
should be as we'll paid as those who
