with pride whenever opportunity
offers"
Referring to the pride which the
people Of Wilmington have in the
Republican party, Mr.. Harvey as
serted that II ne is elected Mayor
ne will be a Mayor in every sense
of the word, and will call upon the
citizens of Wilmington for help and
advice.
Howard NJ Ward referred to the
problems facing the Republican
party, and asserted that the candi-
dates assembled we're pledged to
uphold the principles of the party.
The Democratic claim that the
Citizens Committee charter would
provide a more economic form OF
government was false, Samuel ].
White said. Instead of saving the
city money. and thereby lowering
taxes, Mr.. White asserted it would
cause an increase in taxation. The
Republicans he said, are in favor
Of a new city charter, but are not
in favor OF the one to which the
Democrats are clinging, like a
drowning man to a straw"
Alexander r. Abrahams, candi-
date OF the Fifth ward for City
Councilman, urged that every ef-
fort be turned towards getting the
voters out on election day.
Anthony Corletto and DR.. p. A.
Rovitti urged members Of the league
to give their whole-hearted support
to the Republican ticket, and pledg-
ed their individual support. The
meeting was well attended and was
l most enthusiastic.

BERGDOLL Will
LOSE interest
Col. Miller May Sell Prop
critics and Turn Money
Into u. S. Treasury
ONE MILLION
LESS FOR STACKER

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, May 3d.
Grover c. Bergdoll may lose interest
on 100000 because OF the seizure
Of his holdings by the alien Property
Custodian.
Colonel Thomas W. Miller, the
custodian. and Major Vincent A.
Carroll his Philadelphia representa-
tive. have traced additional funds
and collateral Of the fugitive slack
err bringing the total up to s75o,00O.
1t is expected the amount will total
s1.00o. 600 before the search is COM
pieted.
Most Of the collateral traced con-
sisted Of mortgages held by Berg
doll on properties throughout the
city.
Under the Trading-wi with-the-
Enemy Act the Alien Property Gus
todian has power TO sell any or all
of the estate seized. The money
therefrom goes into the United
states Treasury. as does all money
contained in bank accounts.
If the property Is ever returned
to Bergdoll-and that can be only
through action Of Congress after the
Stacker has appeared personally to
make his claim-the money goes to
him out Of the United States Treas
ury without interest.
That in itself would be heavy
loss. Placing the return rate at the
low figure Of 4 per cent, $4,000 a
gear would be lost to the Stacker on
the property the Government officials
expect TO raise before they are fin-
ished. Four per cent. is an ex-
tremely low return rate. It is prob
able that an average Of per cent.
could be obtained with ease, which
would place the annual loss at
5000
Even a treaty of peace with Ger
many cannot save the Stacker and
deserter from the loss. He will con-
tinue as an enemy to the United
States until Congress acts. since his
crime was the violation Of the Trad
ing -With-the- Enemy Act.
1t is entirely probable that Colonel
Miller will decide to dispose of as
much Of the Bergdon property as
possible, so that It can be more read
lily handled as cash placed in the
Treasury.
The Colonel has appointed the
Fourth Street National Bank OF
PHILADELPHIA as depository in the
Bergdoll case.
From now on all tenants Of Grover
Bergdolls property will make renta
payments at that place. Person
upon whose property the slacke
holds mortgages also will mako set
Elements Of their obligations at tina
bank.
The entire country has given "a
approval TO the action OF Colone
Miller IN Selling the property OF
Bergdoll
From all parts there poured into
Colonel Millers office telegrams
letters and telephone congratulations
and offers Of assistance in tracing
the holdings Of the Bergdoll clan, so
that there will be no avenue through
which the notorious Stacker can gam
access TO any OF his own funds.
