There was a lively and long bat
tie as to whether the bridge should
be placed at Broome street or Wash
ington street." he said. Decision
finally went to Washington street
because a shorter span was required.
The old bridge was 693 feet long
and was s5 feet above the level OF
the rocks and creek beneath it, II
cost $1,000, and was built by the
Delaware Construction Company, of
which Alvin r. Morrison was presi-
dent. Steel for the bridge was fur
nished by the Edge Moor Bridge
Company"
Pronounced by engineers as well
as laymen to be a structure that will
compare most favorably with any
bridge of its size in the country, the
new bridge was thrown open to
traffic last Christmas.
The bridge is 72O feet long and
70 feet wide over all.
The first meeting OF the Bridge
Commission was held April 2s. 1919.
shortly after the General Assembly
had passed the act naming the body.
Actual work on the bridge began
on August 21, 1920. following the
closing Of the old span to traffic, Au-
gust 9, 1920. The cost of the struc-
ture is well within the sum set in
the act, when authority was given to
issue sS50.OO0 in bonds. all Of which
were sold at a premium.
Davis and Torbert, OF New York
City are the architects and engineers
of the structure. The firm consists
of Benjamin II. Davis and Vance w.
Torbert. the latter being a Delaware
boy. The Walsh Construction Com
pany has been the builder.
The entire bridge comprises
fifteen arch rings. or three rings to
each arch. To concrete a ring, a
huge steel centering is used for sup
port. On this steel centering is
built the frame work of the ring
which is finally completed with con
crete and crushed stone.
Four concrete pylons of large size,
crowned by bronze lights. ornament
the bridA. These contain the
bronze memorial tablets in recognl-
tlon OF Delaware's soldiers who serv-
ed during the late World War. Two
smaller pylons also adorn each end
of the bridge.

MANY citizens OF the State OF

them is =. S. DUPONT. whose kind
ness has furnished US with many
schools. We should appreciate his
generosity and thoughtfulness and
we as a race should not forget that
the best white people are on the
side OF the colored people. Senator

zen who has done much for the col
ored citizens Of Delaware"
The crowds which attended the
services were said to have been the

New Qualifications for
Labor Leaders Demanded

SYDNEY, N. S. w. Jan 2-(Asso-
ciated Press Mail)-Qualifications ne
cessary for the ideal union labor
leaders of Australia were made public
today in the semi-annual report of the
S~tovemakers union.
"The day of the reformist leader
of the working class is over" the re-
port said. The worker who aspires
to official positions in his union, but
who has not made a study of the
working class movement, economics,
industrial history and more particu-
larly, the events of the past four
years in Russia, is a menace to his
fe~llow-workers. On times of peace he
may be a good man, interviewing the
boss over minor grievances, or at
tending the arbitration court, but the
moment a real crisis occurs, his i'm
potency is revealed. He becomes a
menace and ultimately, through ig-
norance, betrays his fellow-workers,
who had him elected to his position
of trust. The betrayal of the British
coal miners by the Triple Alliance
was a case in point.
