GOVERNORS FRIENDS
FEAR UNFAIR MOVES
Say They Are Deprived of List OF
Candidates for Republican State
Convention.

Special Correspondence of Every Evening
Georgetown, April 12.--Repubiican pol
iticians in Sussex county, especially the
leaders who are giving support to Cover
nor Townsendlfor delegate to the Repub-
lican National Convention, have been
very much perturbed since "Wednesday
night because of their inability TO obtain
list of candidates filed with the secretary
of the county committee for delegates to
the Republican State Convention at the
primary election next Saturday. The
fight in Sussex between the Layton faction
and the supporters of Governor Town.
send and General r. G. du Pont is waxing
warm and no stone is being left unturned
TO win the fight, which promises to be the
most bitter for many years.
The secretary of the county committee is
a staunch supporter of the Laytons, and
the friends of Governor Townsend believe
they see "nigger in the woodpile, else
list of delegate candidates would have
been handed out to them long ago.
Despite repeated efforts on the part OF
some of the most influential Republicans
in this district, they have been unable to
obtain the list, and they are at loss To
understand why such should be the case.
The secretary is said TO give as the reason
for not preparing the Inst that his time has
been occupied with other matters and that
when he starts its preparation he wants. TO
devote enough time and attention to see
that the list is properly prepared. 1t has
been promised the first of this week, 1T ls
understood, but whether or not the friends
of Governor Townsend will be able to get
copy remains to be seen.
The belief prevails, however, that the
Townsend faction will win the fight in the
county, unless there is a change of sentl
ment within the next few days.

conclusions on che foundation Of
delusive analogy.

One Of the most unfavorable aspects
Of the general situation Is to be found
in the crop outlook. The promise OF
the seasons agricultural yield is way
below normal. This is due mainly to
the acute labor situation. Reports OBJ
tained by the Department of Agri-
culture in practically every state OF
the Union. show that the supply of
hired farm labor in this country is only
about 72 per cent of the normal supply
compared with approximately 81 per
cent of a normal supply year ago,
This years shortage is almost in the
same degree as that Of two years ago,
when the army took large numbers of
men from the farm. Without adequate
help the farmer is finding it difficult
to plant the usual acreage, despite the
big profits offered by the high prices
prevailing for all farm products.
The views of the Federal Reserve
Board on the credit position, as set
forth in the April bulletin, are espe-
cially interesting at this time. ut
would seem," it is stated, chat what
ever may have been done to bring in
flation under control, the needs of in
dustry and the seasonal requirements
Of the spring agricultural and manu-
factings now in progress in certain Sec
tions have combined to Offset the effects
Of contraction by increasing the total
volume Of commercial business which
the banks are required to handle. How
far the demand for funds to meet
speculative requirements enters into
the increase in loans and deposit ac-
count cannot be precisely determined
by the board. Whether, therefore, the
increase in any appreciable degree is
taken as indicating lack of ability to
control credit expansion is far from
certain. At all events, the situation
emphasizes the necessity for bringing
the speculative use Of credit facilities
Of the Federal Reserve system under
control at as early a moment as possi-
BILE in order that credit shall be avail
able as needed for the requirements of
industry as the season advances. There
is some reason to think that an in
creasing share of banking funds, both
at the Reserve institutions and at the
member banks, is being offered to the
direct service of commerce and indus
try, but what has already been done in
that direction needs to be carried fur
ther and rendered more effective. This
situation has an important bearing on
the problem of foreign financing. 1t
indicates that legitimate needs for cap
ital and credit have become SO intense
as to make it essential for the banking
system to meet them, and for the bor-
rover to take loans, even at the very
high rates Of interest that are now
current. The difficulty that the for
e'gn borrower or buyer experiences
therefore, in obtaining funds in the
United States for European use has
been in no way lessened by reduction
in speculative activity, and is not like
ly to be materially lessened in the near
future. So far arc the requirements
Of the United States from being satis-
fed that it will undoubtedly be con-
siderable time before there will be a
margin Of funds for foreign use"

TROUBLES WITH TIRES
LESSENED EACH YEAR

Tire troubles. once the bugaboo oil
the motorist, are being gradually
eliminated from motor travel.
A few years ago, says the Diamond
Rubber Co.. Inc, it was a common
sight to see a car laid up at the side
of the road with its owner repairing,
laboriously and profanely. a flat cas-
ing. Today such a sight is compare
lively rare. despite the fact that count
less more autos are in use. Long tours
are made without any tire trouble
whatsoever.
The main reason for this reduced
number of tire mishaps is that tires
are made much better now than ever
before. Improved methods of manu-
facture are being used which add
many extra miles to the tires The
tires are built scientifically and the
chances of defective workmanship are
reduced to the minimum.
Proof that the manufacturers con-
slider their tires now superior to those
few years ago is given by the fact
that practically all the principal com
panies now base their adjustments on
d basic mileage 1900. to 5000 miles
more than before.
A mother reason for the better SER
vice tires now give is that motorists
have learned to give more attention to
their care. The motorist now repairs
injuries when they are slight instead
of waiting until they have done SER
ious damage. Small cuts which for
nerly were neglected are now taken
care of promptly
Tire manufacturers say that much
of the trouble still caused by tires re-
suits from inner tubes. The tubes are
neglected much more than the castings
and are used even when they are ready
for the scrap pile. With poor inner
tube. the best OF castings are bound to
break down before their time.
