These league spielers are cautioned to
use as their main argument the point
that this is not political question,
but it is a holy crusade to put an
end for all time to war. Governor
Cox's name is not to be mentioned,
but the fact that the preservation of
the Wilson league covenant is de-
pendent upon the return of the Dem
ocratic party is to be played up to
the limit of human sophistry. The
funds to defray the expenses of this
vast rhetorical drive are said to have
been derived from persons financially

school Operatlng Deficits

During last May it came to our
attention that two of the counties
and several special districts in the
State had operating deficits for their
school year. A private citizen, to
whom the Delaware public school
system already owes so much, aug
meated the fund Of the Service Cih-
zens to the extent of over $4,000,
which amount we checked out to the
embarrassed boards after we had
made a thorough audit of their books
The reason for meeting this deficit in
this way was that none OF the boards
had had experience in the making Of
a budget and were hardly TO blame
for the condition in which they found
their treasures; but in making these
remittances the boards were given to
understand very clearly that similar
deficits could not be met in the fu-
ture.
