MRS. HILLES SURE OF
VICTORY, SHE ESAYS

"The difficulty OF believing that Della
ware Republicans will deliberately jeo-
pard'ze the SUCCESS OF their party In the
national elections next November IS
ground for hope that the Republican
majority IN the Legislature will put
through ratification OF the suffrage
amendment during The coming week. ="
the statement OF Miss Alice Paul, ma
tlonal chairman OF the Woman's Party,
who is In Wilmington for the weekend.
Miss Paul has been In constant attend
ance at the Legislature since II con-
vcncd.
she points out that II Republican
legislators care so little for their party
that they VIII enter into combination
with Democrats to oppose a measure
which national and State leaders are do
Ing their utmost to secure they must
expect to feel the displeasurcs not only
OF woman suffraglsts, soon TO be voters,
but OF all Republicans who have the
welfare OF their party at heart.

STATE HOUSE. DOVER, March 27.--
Representative Lyons chairman OF the
House Revised Statutes Committee, an
nounced that his committee win give
hearing at a o'clock Monday morning.
or as near that hour as possible, to
any persons Interested In the two Diils
now In his committee. one the So
called workhouse ripper and the
other to amend the Workmen's Com
pensation Law
The workhouse ripper" would oust
the present trustees OF the New Castle
County Workhouse on June 1 and su-
s.horlze The governor to appoint their
successors with the provision, how
ever. that he may if>he so desires, re-
appoint one OF the present trustees.
The appolntive power Of workhouse
trustees at present rests with The
judges OF the State Court. The bill
was introduced by Representative
Francis.
The amendments 70 the Workmen's
Compensation Aot would make several
radical changes In the present law. One
OF the most important OF these pro-
posed changes is the provision that one
of the three members OF the Industrial
Accident Board. which carries out tho
act. must be a physician. II sets out
that the next appointment Of a member
OF this board by the governor after the
approval OF this act shall be a surgeon
or physician OF the State. The present
three members Of the board are Sylves-
ter D. Townsend, Jr., OF Wilmington;
Harry Mayer. OF Dover. and v NJ. Muir
ray, OF Selbyyille. and their salary Is
81 $50 annually.
Another amendment relates 10 medical
aid that the employer Is required 10
furnish for an employe who has been
injured. The law at present provides
that the employer during the lrst two
weeks after injury shall furnish reason
able surgical. medical and hospital
services, medicines and supplies, not !
90 exceed S75
The amendment would make Il In |
cumbeni upon The employer TO furnish /
such medical services for one year II T
the injured person so requires il.
This amendment VIII likely be Bit I
terly opposed as Il Is commended that
such a law would practically make in
suranoe rates TO employers prohlbitlye.
The bin was introduced by Representa-
live Brooks.

law can be amended where defects
have been found. Everyone admits
there are defects in the code. Il is
pointed out that ~ would be impose
ible TO enact such a big piece Of legis-
latlon as the school code that did not
turn out TO have defects ami need
amending from time to time. u has
been suggested that probablJ the most
reasonable and effective way TO adjust
the matter would be for committee
or commission TO be named by author-
ity OF the Legislature to cooperate
with the State Board Of Education.
While some members OF the Legis-
latlure are Insisting that nothing short
Of repeating the code will satisfy them.
there are only a few who believe thst
the code will be repealed The demand
for reasonable amendments and a fair
trial for the law is growing each day.
and that will no doubt be the outcome
OF the present agitation.
Senator Palmer. who apparently Is
one Of The most bitter opponents Of the
code in the Legislature, yesterday af-
ternoon introduced a bill IN skeleton
form which he said was paving the
way for a repeater. He also intro
duced a second bin which evidently
has for It's object the preventing Of
the operation OF the law. This bill
would prevent the construction OF new
buildings or the purchase Of any lands
for school purposes. but It is doubtful
il 70 will get very far.
The House yesterday afternoon
adopted a resolution offered by Repre-
sentative Clend7niel. requesting rep
resentative Of the STATE Board Of Edu-
cation to appear before the House
committee on education Monday morn
ing at II O'Clock. The committee desires
to give the State Board an opportunity
to be heard on Representative Soper's
bin TO repeal the school code and re-
enact the old school laws

who departd this life two years ago today,
March %, 1918:
In a graveyard safely sleeping.
Where the flowers gently wave;
Lies the one we love so dearly
In her lonely. silent grave.
We often sit and think OF her,
when we are all alone
For memory Is the only thing.
That grief can call its own
Friends may think we soon forget her
And our wounded hearts be healed,
But they little know the sorrow
That's within our hearts concealed.

but the cave man certainly did not

wearing his hat continuously during

was a carpenter who seemed very tim
orous concerning the safety of his mon

some one day. the banker said to him.
