STATE HOUSE. DOVER. Del.
March 19.-One OF she bitterest
legislative battles during the entire
session took place In the senate to-
day when Senator Robertson made a
strong fight for the passage OF his
bill which had for It's purpose the
return 20 the various cities. towns
and hundreds. for the Improvement
OF roads and streets, one-half OF the
merchants and Manufacturers tax
paid 10 the state by citizens OF those
particular districts or communities.
The bill. which had been reported
unfavorable by the revised statutes
committee. was defeated by a vote
OF TO 4. In addition to Senators
Robertson and Lutz. OF Wilmington,
Senators Richards Of Newark and
Senator Highheld--of Brandywine
Hundred voted FOR the bill. Those
who voted against it were Senators
Alice. Bennett, Hopkins. Latta. Pal
mer. Price. Short Walker and Presi-
dent protein Handy.
A similar bill introduced by Rep
esentative Kramer was killed in the
House some weeks ago
Senator Robertson led the fight
for the bill. while Senators Alice,
Bennett. Palmer and Price opposed
20 on the floor. Senator Alice pro-
tested that the argument that will
mington pays to the State more than
she gets back Is false.
Senator Robertson al the conciu-
sion Of his argument predicted that
i the time would come when this or
some future Legislature would see
the Justice Of such a bill and that IL
would become a law
Senator Robertson in explaining
the bill said it has for its purpose
the division OF the mercantile and
manufacturers licenses collected in
the various localities between tho
state and the locality. When Sem
ator Robertson said the bill had for
its purpose certain things. Senator
Bennett. Of Frankford. remarked:
I"A little notoriety."
III the Senator from Frankford. =
replied Senator Robertson. "had in
troduced this bill It probably would
have been for notoriety. with me IL
is a matter OF justice"
senator lAuutileun explained Iutl
the money would go towards the inn
provement Of the highways lie
said for instance n Frankford
should pay $4,000 OF this tax to tho
State under the bill the town would
get back $1,000 for its streets. and
he added: God knows. anybosy
who has ever been there knows the
town needs H."
Senator Robertson also said tho
same applied 10 Milton (Senator
Palmer's home). He said he had
nothing TO say about the residents
Of those towns, but il was a fact the
towns could stand improvements in
that way The Wilmington Senator
said the question would probably be
asked what Wilmington would get
of H.
Wilmington. he said. last year paid
$4,000 OF the tax referred TO and
consequently would get s56.OO0 OF IL
back. He argued that Wilmington
should be given something back OF
what Il pays. The Senator said
the people of Wilmington consider
the State FIRST and the city next. but
that it is from Wilmington that the
State expects to get the greater
share of the revenue that is needed.
