The importance of Mclean and
his kilograms have been unduly
magnifed. Mclean was an intl-
mate friend of the late President
Harding, but leaders of both
parties agree that he does not
hold this relationship with the
present occupant of the White
House. 1t is common knowledge
that Mclean inherited a vast
fortune including two news
paper properties here and in
Cincinnati. He later augmented
his wealth by marrying an
heiress. Mclean has little or nc
influence in national politics and
those who were intimate with
the late President know that
Mclean never exercised any In
fluence on Mr.. Harding's politi'
cal affairs.

Senator Couzens, Democrat, of

granting the privileges of the

favored by the present admins

An amusing spectacle is pre-
scented in the efforts of both par
ties to claim the credit for tax re-
duction. The Longworth compro-
mise income tax rates as passed
by the House does not meet with
the approval of the Administra-
ton. Senator Smoot, chairman
of the Senate Finance committee,
contends that a deficit of $780,
900, 900 year would follow the
enactment of the House bill by
the Senate. 1t is obvious that
the Senate Finance committee
will make an effort to restore
the rates contemplated in the
Mellon plan when the bill is re-
ported to the Senate. There is a
contest among Democrats and
Republicans as to who will reap
the political benefit coming from
immediate tax reduction. AS a
result the Senate Finance COM
mittee hopes that Republican
members of the Senate and
House will settle their differ
ences and enact a joint resolution
providing for 25 per cent reduc-
ton in personal income taxes
payable this year. so that it may
apply to installments, due March
Is. Unless this question is set
tied within few days great con-
fusion will naturally ensue at in
ternal revenue offices owing to
the general misunderstanding of
the tax plan.

nothing of the boon it will be to

understand a lively delegation is
going before the Kent County

the building of a concrete road

mean much to upper Kent Coun-

velop into one of the best re-
sorts on the Delaware Bay. It's
a hopeful sign the way Wood

some day, and other buildings
too, will go up in Smyrna. AL
ready some of our merchants

towns, is feeling the effect of
good roads. In a few years Nil
lington, Sudlersville, Marydel
and a number of towns on the
Eastern Shore of Maryland will
be nearer to us when the con-
crete roads are extended from
| Clayton and Kenton. This trade
coming thru Smyrna, to reach
the Boulevard, cannot but help
lSmyrna's business growth. With
the increasing number of cars
that come here Saturday nights
one would naturally conclude
that Smyrna is far from a "deaC

this matter of schools. 1t

privilege and a pleasure, this
search for a better education.
AS the Wilmington Evening
Journal, pertinently says: "You
Delaware children who are re-
turning to school this fall are
experiencing the best part of
your life, though you will not
realize it until later. Youth is
the most glorious period. In
old age you will look back to it
as a mystic fairyland. And yet
it is a very practical fairyland,
for youth is training time. You
are going to school for this def
mite purpose-to train yourself
for making a living after you
graduate. The kind of living
you will make in maturity is
largely determined in schoO,
days. The foundation of failure
or success is almost without ex
ception based on the training
the brain gets in school. Study
hard and you will be rewarded
later.
''The world that you will grad
uate into will be a very differ
ent world than the one entered
by your father when he com
pleted his schooling. Each yea
the intellect plays a greater par
in daily life. So neglect no op
portunity to develop you
