Attorney General Sylvester d.
Townsend. Jr.. has drawn amend
mcnts to the present city charter OF
Wilmington as substitute for the
now charter act prepared by the BIZ
partisan committee and approved by
the general citizens committee.
Under tho attorney generals bill
Council Street and Sewer Directors
and Water Commissioners would be
abolished and their powers vested in
board OF five. commissioners. The
bipartisan committees bill provides
for the lection OF five commissioners
at large The Townsend bin pro-
vides for election Of one at large, two
from the district east of Market
street and two from the district west
Of Market.
The Offices Of mayor. city treas
urer. assessors and tax collectors
would be retained under the attor-
ney-gonerars measure. as would alss
the Park Board and Harbor Com
mission. Mr.. Townsend is Of the
opinion the Park Commission should
be maintained as long as William p.
Bancroft survives. He also believes
the harhor project could be dovel-
oped better under the present board,
which planned it. The police and
fire departments already are in pro-
cess Of consolidation in a separate
act.
Tho attorney general feels his
plan would be a start toward con-
solidation and would have the ad-
vantage that the language constitut-
ing the charter would not be
changed. thus preserving in the orig
inal language the provisions Of the
laws and ordinance which have been
construed by the courts. This. he
maintains, is a valuable feature, as

BRITAIN'S NAVY LEADS
Double the Strength Of the
Japanese Navy.

WashingtOn.-What officials believe
relative naval strength of the principal
world Powers now is in possession of
| the American Government, Whether
it will be presented to the Senate For
egn Relations Committee in cOnnec-
ton with that committees cOnsidera-
ton of proposals looking to world
disarmament has not been disclosed.
The Information has been compiled
in the form of tables, which show that
Great Britain's sea power is double
that of the United States, and that,
although the British preponderance
in capital ships practically will have
been overcome by the United States
with the completion, in 1928, of the
American building program, the
American navy will still be inferior in
types of vessels which naval officers
regard as extremely important, nota-
bly, destroyer leaders, cruisers and
light cruisers, cruising submarines and
airplane ships.
to this information, has l1ore than
dolble the strength of the japanese
navy, and this ratio will be maintain
ed even with the completion of the
building programs of the two countries.
The United States will be far superior,
not only in capital ships, but also in
destroyers and submarines. Japan,
however, will have double the number
of battle cruisers, now possessing four
such vessels, with eight others project
ed, while the United States has none
completed and only six building.
Without reference to Second-line
ships of which Great Britain has
prepOnderance in all classes over the
United States and Japan, the British
navy contains 26 battleships carrying
at least 10 guns each of twelve.inch
caliber or larger and displacing 10000
tons or more. The United States has
16 such vessels, Japan 6, France and
Italy 4. Great Britain has no first-line
battle ships under construction, while
the United States has II japan Z,
France and Italy 4.
The British navy, pioneCl in the de- !
of the battle cruiser type, |
navy contains PC battle ships carrying |
of modern ships of war, with 6 first |
line battle cruisers and others class
ed as "second.llne." The United |
States has none completed and 6 under
Japan in service and s
projected. France and Italy have no
battle cruisers built or building.

Industries to Reopen and Resume

New York.-Manufactu should
now resume their buying of raw prod
uctS in discriminating way to keep
the wheels of industry turning and aid
IN maintaining the economic balance
of the country.
This is the optimistic and hopeful
message sent out by J. Philip Bird,
General Manager of the National AS
sOciatiOn of Manufacturers, who adj
vanced the suggestion in a review Of
the general business situation.
'"The time has now come" said Mr..
Bird, 'for every far-sighted manufac-
turer to return to the kind of discrim.
inatOry buying necessary to sustain in
dustry and restore prosperous business
conditions.
1--WE have passed almost through Il
brief period Of the closing down Of

reopening and resuming work on al
most normal scale. We will have more
and more of this as we adjust our

We have seen great changes

Detroit, Mich.-The building pro-
gram of the Municipal Street Railway
Commission, which has under construc-
ton few miles of line near the north
erly city limits, struck a new angle
when big squad of laborers, guarded
by 200 police officers, ripped up a Sec
ton of the Detroit United Railway
track at Mack and st. Jean avenues,
and then crossed the company'S lines
with city-Owned diamond and the
necessary trackage. The crossing was
made before daylight and while E. j.
Burdick, Assistant General Manager of
the Detroit United, was held IA prison
err on Bell Isle. Mr.. Burdick was
rushed over to the island by police of
ficerS, who kept him marooned there
by raising the draw bridge.
Tine bridge was lowered when the
"prisoner" made his way back to the
city. He was just in time to see the
wOrkmen on their way home from the
Mack avenue Job" The result of the
treatment accorded to Mr.. Burdck will
be an action against the city of Detroit
for alleged improper arrest, as well as
the institution of contempt proceed
1ngs against those city officials re-
sponSible for the construction of the
tracks at st. Jean and Mack avenue.
At the moment he was seized and
hustled away the Detroit United Off
cial was engaged in serving an injunc-
against the city. enjoining it from in
terfering with the street railway COM
pany'S tracks in any way. Mr.. Burdick
stated that when he protested to the
officers upon being taken away, he was
informed that they had "Orders" to do
what they were doing.
After reaching Belle Isle Mr.. Bur
dick was searched at the police sta
tiOn there and everything of value
taken from him, he said, except his
glasses. He was informed that he
was held for disturbing the peace"
Even the telephone of the island was
disconnected so that he could not in
form members of his family of his
plight, Mr.. Burdick said. The plan to
outwit the Detroit United Company
apparently was well defined one, Off |
Gals said. The laborers who were to |
do the LOB" were locked up at the |
yards of the Department of Public
Works until the time came for them
to go to work, when they were rushed |
to the scene on motor trucks and ac- |
companied by patrol wagons carrying |
the policemen.
