and a course may be determined best
calculated to accomplish the most

Approval of the Mayors course in

baton, as did other city officials and
business and professional men gem

appeared to be agreed was the need
OF starting actual work on as many
OF the proposed improvements as
possible so as to provide employment
for the thousands OF idle workers in
Wilmington.
This phase OF the situation is ex-
pected to figure strongly in this af-
