CITY TOBUILD
new CREMATORY
Council Decides to Erect
Property at Cost of
$45,OOO
COVER GARBAGE
FOR SIX WEEKS

Dr. Charles NJ. Handy. president
OF the Board OF Health. az a joint
meeting Of the board with City Coun-
ell last night. for the purpose OF
solving the existing garbage troubles.
due TO the destruction Of the crema-
tory by fire last Friday night. said
that since the Legislature had au-
thorized Wilmington to own and
operate its garbage disposal plant.
he favored the erection OF a pcrma-
nent plant. He believed the incin-
GRAFTON process was the best for the
disposal Of garbage. but that it
would take several months before a
permanent plant could be put in
operation. He suggested in the
meantime that the Marsh road plant
be put in running condition for the
present.
John Welch, superintendent Of the
destroyed plant, said the machinery
Is in good condition. and that the
plant could be placed in operation
within two weeks at a cost Of about
$1,000, which would not include
roofing.
Charles Forwood, chairman Of the
finance committee Of Council said
that the thing to be considered at
the present was the disposal OF the
garbage now accumulating Then
plans for the permanent plant could
be considered. All present were OF
the opinion that the best way at
present was to put the destroyed
plant In shape temporarily.
City Council practically agreed 20
erect a new incineration plant on the
site of the plant destroyed one year
ago. at a cost Of $4,000. and at
present. having secured permission
OF the Wilmington Gas Company.
the garbage Will be dumped on a lot
in the vicinity OF the old plant in
the Eleventh ward and covered with
lime This condition will last only
until a neY plant can be placed in
operation. probably six weeks.
Following the opening Of the meet
ing. the members adjourned TO one
Of the committee rooms. Alexan-
der Abrahams. chairman OF the

ell, presided. and asked those as

remain in Washington all summer, it was deemed advisable for the diplomatic corps to do likewise.
 Regardless of the senate recess, a large number of senators will remain in Washing ton as there will be several important com mittees holding sessions throughout the sum- mer preparatory to introducing legislation in the regular sesison of congress which con venes in December.
 As an example of how diligently the execu- tive branch of the government is sticking to the job, it may be cited that during the Fourth of July holiday period, the majority of the presidents cabinet remained at work. Although Vice President Coolidge had dou- ble reason for celebrating the Fourth of July, inasmuch as it was his 49th birthday ami versary, he did not leave Washington, but remained at his desk all day July and part of July A. Secretary of State Hughes also remained in Washington.
 Secretary of the Interior Fall spent the holidays in intensive work at his office, so also did Secretary Hoover Postmaster Gen era Hays spent the holidays at his home in Sullivan, Ind, in conference regarding sweep ing reforms in the postal savings division of his department Attorney General Daugherty packed case Iull or Drle1S and memoranda covering legal matters requiring prompt dis position and went to Baltimore, where he spent the holidays with Mrs. Daugherty, who was in a Baltimore hospital.
 J. R. McCarI, newly appointed controller general of the United States, under the new budget law, set an example, not only for his newly created department, but for all execu- tive departments. Taking office on July l., he called his chief clerks together and "broke the news" that there would be no holidays for them. All were ordered to report for a full days work on Saturday, July ?, and on the Fourth. Led by McCarl himself the force Loyalty removed their coats and stuck to their desks. In practically every department, scores of bureau chiefs, clerks accountants, stenog- raphers, etc, spent the doliday at their work.

EDUCATION IN ALASKA

The Journal of Education, published in Boston, one of the most prominent educa- tiOnal publications in the country, In short review of the last report of the territorial commissioner of education, has a good word to say for Alaska's system of education. It finds in the report reason to believe that the educational needs of Alaska children are well looked after and saney administered. The Boston paper comments as follows:
 "The present activities of the United States bureau of education include the formal educa- tion of these (native) children, with special attention to vocational education and personal and community hygiene; social service in ma tive villages; medical service; the reindeer industry; and cooperative stores. w. T. Lopp is the present head of the educational service of the federal government
 "The territorial schools for white children are now under the control of the people of Alaska They provide for every phase of edu- cational activity, from diagnostic tests to thrift stamps.
 ''The difficulty of sustaining such school system must sorely test the judgment, tact and endurance of Superintendent Lester D. Henderson. The matter of communication alone presents almost insulmountable difficult ties. But the report breathes a spirit of cour- age and optimism which augurs we'll for the little citizens of that far-off land"
 The work of Commissioner Henderson merits all that has been said commentators of it. He, in comparatively short time, has inaugurated a system which is elastic enough to meet conditions peculiar to the territory and at the same time adequate to insure edu- cational facilities of no mean order. The work done in Alaska schools, since the inaug- uratiOn of the present system, compares favor ably with that done in the more thickly popu- lated communities of the states

FEDERAL EMPLOYES KEEP NOSE TO
 SANDSTONE

The order has gone forth, from the highest to the lowest that economy is imperative and that every employe who hopes to remain on the government payroll must give a little more than dollars worth of work for every dollar in salary The saying has been current in the business and industrial world that ''hard times are not coming; it's just the easy times that going.' But it is only recently that this bit of wisdom has found lodgment among the thousands of employees in. government offices. Not in the memory of the oldest of them was there ever a time when they had to apply themselves as closely and conscientiously as they are now doing
 This situation is not peculiar to the en- ployes in the ranks. With the exception of the hectic days of the war period the higher officials of the federal government have not kept so diligently on the job as they are doing under the present administration.
 All Washington has accepted the situation philosophically and has arranged to remain on the job all summer. Several foreign diplo- mats have cancelled their plans for two or three months vacation at summer resorts It is advisable that representatives of foreign governments remain in close and constant touch with the seat of government to which they are assigned. Inasmuch as the presi- dent, secretary of state and other executives who deal with the foreign situation are to
