CIVIC PRIDE VS.. PUBLIC UTILITY
NEWARK CITIZEN ADDRESSES LOCAL REPRESEN-
TATIVE ON ECONOMY MEASURE

to state a Public Utility Commis-
sion created in such spirit will
serve it's masters only, and those
masters are the leaders OF the
political parties of which they are
members. When it is undoubtedly
possible to secure the services OF
competent citizens Of the State for
such a board without compensa-
ton, / am at loss to understand
why such heavy salary should
be attached or should be proposed
for service ON such Commission.
"It appears from the papers,
the Legislature are actually going
to attempt to save for themselves
appointments to this Commission,
instead of permitting the Governor
to make the appointments as he
should make all appointments.
This gives further color to the
suspicion that comfortable berths
are being arranged for the occu-
pancy of political heeler who
would establish a Public Utility
Board in name only.
"I hope you will use your in
fuence to see that compensation
for the members of this Board is
not proposed, and that an attempt
be made to secure the service OF It's
members without compensation,
so that the only possible expense
to the State would be a small ap-
preparation to provide for the nee
essary records and keeping of the
records of such Commission.
"I hope you will give your as.
sistance to this idea, to the end the
Legislators may be made to see
that a better quality of service
may be had without compensation
at times than with compensation
and Just at this time when every
body is experiencing a business de
preston, every useless expendltur'
by the State should be eliminated
as the citizens of the State look t.
the Legislature for reduced taxa
ton and reduced expenditure
rather than any increase at tn
present time.
Yours respectfully,
J. P. WRIGHT.

MANY RETURN FOR
ALUMNAE REUNION
Round of Festivities Marks
Annual Midwinter
Gathering

LOYAL ,alumnae Of the Women s
College of Delaware, 72 in number
came back to their Alma Mater on
Saturday for a joyous mid-winter
reunion. A round Of class re-
unions, parties. teas and midnight
spreads, in addition to the usual
banquet kept students and visitors
busy every minute of the time and
made manifest the spirit Of pride
that animates every student that
has ever enrolled at the Women s
College.
The first event in the gay round
Of festivities was tea given to the
alumnae by Ruth Clendainel Baus-
man of the pioneer class of '1S at
her attractive new home on Park
Place. Here erstwhile dignified
teachers, business women, and
staid married folk threw off the
mask of maturity and resumed
the care-free irresponsIbility OF
undergraduate days. The gay
pleasures and pranks of those days
were, lived again in reminiscence
which precluded all possibility OF
the deadly dullness ordinarily as
sociated with formal teas.
The interval between this event
and the banquet was spent In visit
ing friends and acquaintance II
college and town, inspecting the
new kitchen and the mushroom
emergency dormitories, and visit
inc the scenes made dear by many
happy associations.

The following letter concerning
the proposed Public Utility Com
mission was received during the
past week by Representative Char
les L. Medill:
February 18th, 1921.
Representative Charles Il. Medill,
Newark, Delaware.
"Dear Sir:
"It appears from the news
papers that a Public Utility Com
mission is to be established in the
State, and that it is proposed to
pay the members of such a Com
mission large salaries, somewhere
between $4,000 and $4,000 per
year each. This proposal is an in
excusable waste Of public money.
"It may be open to argument
as to whether or not a Public
Utility Commission IS required IN
this State, but admitting that it is
considered to be necessary, why
can't the Legislature take a leaf
from the experience OF Governor
Townsend and call upon public
spirited citizens to serve upon
such Commission without compen-
sation. If l was thought to have
sufficient ability to serve on a Pub
lie Utility Commission, l would be
glad to serve without any COM
pensation, and I know this feeling
exists among our citizens who are
fully capable of serving on such a
Commission. 1t is only necessary
to remember the days OF the Draft,
to recall the Governor had at his
command any citizens in the State
who were glad to serve on various
Draft Boards without compensa-
ton, even. though that service re-
quired all of their time.
81 do not believe that sufficient
thought has been given to the
possibility Of securing the assist,
ance and cooperation of citizens OF
the State without the expenditure
of money.
CAS- the Bill is proposed, it is
quite apparent that it is obviously
introduced for the purpose of find
ing four political plums TO be deal
out to those politicians who have
been most faithful to their respec
tive parties, and it is unnecessary

TOWNSEND FARM
BUREAU FIXES
WAGE SCALE
Appoints Committee for Co
operative Purchasing of
Clover

The Townsend Farm Bureau at
a recent meeting, at which forty
five representative members were
present, devised "a farm wage
schedule which will probably set
the standard for New Castle coun-
ty during the coming season. Mr..
j. d. Reynolds was chairman and
authorized the publication of the
following wage schedule:
Man with board-$3O.OO per
month.
Man with board and horse keep
-$25. 90 per month.
Day wages for ordinary work
$1.O0 to $3.50.
Day wages for harvest-$2.5O
Mr.. Reynolds stated that there
will be cases when it is necessary
to deviate from these figures, but
so far as possible Townsend farm.
ers are going to adhere very close,
ly to this schedule.
One of the purposes for calling
the meeting was the cooperative
purchase of clover seed. Quotations
from local dealers and the leading
seed houses of the East were pre-
sented and discussed. An order fol
two hundred bushels Of clover seeC
was taken which, it is expected
can be bought for about $12.O(
per bushel. The following purchas
ing committee was appointed

The regular meeting OF the
Board of Trustees of the College
was held in Newark last Saturday,
Unanimous approval of the
Bill before the Legislature to
change the name Of the two col
leges to the "University OF Della
ware was given. DR.. Hulllhen s
plan to provide Physical Training
throughout the whole college course
was approved in principle and IN
structions given the President to
work out the details Of the system
and present it to the Board at the
June meeting.
DR.. Hullihen says in his re-
port, "The recognized disadvant-
age of the existing system OF col
lege athletics in the United States
is that attention is almost ex-
clusively centered upon the de-
velopment of candidates for the
athletic teams. n # Those stu
dents, who need physical training
least, have nearly all of the instl.
tution's physical resources and
energies devoted to them while the
remainder of the student body
shifts for itself and has no sys'
tematic program Of exercise ano
physical development. One OF the
serious disadvantages of this sys

DR.. Hullihen who was due also

marvellous growth Of the Women 5
College, urged the cooperation OF
the alumnae and the student body
in the upbuilding of both colleges

and their eagerness to "embrace'
every suggestion offered to tha
end.
