Milford chronicle., 1925-04-24

The country is still suffering from
the off-hand creation of independ-
ent governmental agencies all inan-
ced with the money of the tax-pay-
ers and all functioning largely indie
pendent of direct control. The total
expenditures of these various depart
ments runs into many millions of
dollars. Ostensibly under the direct
control of the President and free of
ordinary departmental supervision,
it has been long appreciated that
money was being wasted, and that
the country was being committed to
a number of "fOlderol" activities. All
this for some time has been holding
the attention of the President and in
his own matter-of-fact way he has
now ordered a survey of these de-
partments, their personnel and their
and particularly their pay
rolls, with the idea of eliminating or
consolidating those divisions which
are not justifying the expense. It is
about time this was done, and the
President has selected the proper
moment. 1t is already intimated that

More Results For Money Spen

More Results For Money Spent
Jardine, the new secretary of ag-
riculture, is making good 1t is ear
ly, very early, to deliver a blanket
approval of his activities, but all
those who have come in contact with
him are very sincere in their ex-
pressiOns of admiration for his abil-
ity and his methods of administra-
ton. The Department of Agriculture,
it is generally admitted, has become
a rather unwieldly organization with
so great number of bureaus and
divisions that many of these sub
chiefs have for some time been func-
tiOning according to their own Wis
ion and in their own way. That the
thoughts contributed by these chiefs
have been valuable in many in
stances is not to be denied, but for
all that it is agreed that the lack of
coordination makes for danger. The
new secretary has pledged himself,
and in this he has the complete sup
port of the President, to restore at
least unified control, and the spec
tacle which we have witnessed in the
past of various divisions of the same |
conducting campaigns
against one another and spending
the taxpayers money in their bat
ties, will be stopped. The Secretary
is going into the country during the
period to talk to the people.
This is a wise decision. The trouble
with reforms in general, is that in
90 many cases the promoters start
he reforms before the people have
)een made acquainted with the pur-
)ose of the same. Secretary Jardine,
Turing his tour, will take the people
ully into his confidence, and it will,
is believed, secure their confidence
nd their approval of what he is try
ng to do.

the responsibility for the debt nee
essary to acquire these improve
ments where it belonged. He de-
clared that if the people as a whole
wanted this plan they could send
men to the Legislature two years
from now who would do their bid
ding if the building program were
made an issue in the next campaign.
Senator Allen pointed out that the
people had not been asked about
the other bond issues the Legisla-
ture had provided for the expense
of special appropriations of money
the law makers had appropriated at
this session for different purposes
and he could not understand why
there should be objections raised
against a bond issue for good
schools for the children He said
he could not see why the Senators
stood in the way of this project
when the people from all sections
of the state wanted it.
Referendum Constitutional
Senator Hardesty asked Attorney
Nelson if the referendum amend
ment was unconstitutional and Mr.
Nelson replied that if the amend
ment provided for other expense Of
a special election he could not see
how it could be unconstitutional
but in any event it would be up to
the courts to determine this ques-
ton.
Senators Simontons amendment
was adopted by a vote of II to 6. |
The six members opposing it were
Senators Cam, HighfieId, Jester, |
Lord, Prettyman and Ridgely. 1t |
will be noticed on this vote that |
Senator Lord switched to the side |
of the six Directing senators, while
Senator Hardesty, one of the six |
went over to the side of the friends
Of the bill.
Senator Ridgely declared after the
adopting of the amendment that
here had been a possibility of the
dill being passed with the amend
nent attached to it but the second
just adopted, changed
he whole intent of the thing in
such way that he could not vote
or it.
Bill Finally Killed
The bill with the two amendments
vas then put to a vote and killed.

ether to the end in their Opposi-
ion and their votes sounded the :

ter, of FELTON,; Senator Jacob Pret-
lyman, of Lewes; Senator Charles
dupont Ridgely of Camden. Sena-
tors Highfield and Ridgely are Re-
publicans. Senators Cam, Hardes-
ty, Jester and Prettyman are Demo-
Gratis.
The members Objecting to the bill
said they did so chiefly because they
declined to assume responsibility
for such a heavy debt and secondly
because they were afraid the bur-
den of this debt would eventually
fall upon the real estate of Della
ware and thereby necessitate a big
increase in the taxes.
Offers of Guarantee.
The Senate had not been in ses-
sion long Thursday afternoon when
of State Taylor arrived
with a message from Governor Rob-
inson. This proved to be a letter
from him notifying the Senate of
an offer from the trustees of the
Delaware School Auxiliary guaran-
-eeing to make good any deficit

er to the governor and the mem
)ers of the General Assembly and |
vas from DR.. Joseph H. Odell, pre-
ident of the School Auxiliary.
Senator Highfield read a lengthy
statement explaining why he was
opposed to the bill and giving his
easons for this opposition.
Senator ,Ridgely then offered an
mendment to the bill providing for /
special election at which the peo-
lie of the state could voice their
piniOn of the measure.
There was a short recess during
hitch the friends of the bill went
ito a caucus and they there agreed '

ing it were, Senators Kramer, Pool,
SimOnton, Steele, Viven and Presi-
dent Truitt. This lineup shows that
the six Senators who opposed the
original bill voted to accept this
amendment.
SimOntOn'S Amendment.
Senator Simonton then offered an
amendment which read: eff any
amendment which read: eff any
section or provision of this act shall
be decided or declared by the courts
to be unconstitutional or invalid, the
same shall not affect the validity of
this act as a hole or any part or
section thereof, other than the part
or section decided to be uncOnsti-
tutional or invalid"
Senator Ridgely was on his feet
at once in opposition to this amend
ment.
Senator Mcdowell said he did not
for a moment question the right of
the opposing Senators to their Opin-
ions, nor did he question their in
tegrity and sincerity on the stand
they had taken. He said he was
sure none of them was influenced
by any but the highest motives. He
said he made this statement in JUS
Lice to them and because of state
ments he had heard.
He declared there has never been |
any question of the enormous bond !
issues for good roads nor has the
states ability to carry this debt
ever been doubted. He pointed out
hat if the school building plan
proved unsatisfactory or undesir-
lble or the people wanted it stop
Jed after the first $2,000,000 bond

Democratic Leaders Discord

Democratic Leaders DiScOrd
Democratic national disunion has
now reached the point where the
friends of Al Smith and the support
ers of William G.. McAdoo find it i'm
possible to meet and break bread
without the risk of a public scandal.
even on the day sacred to the mem
ory of Thomas Jefferson, who, with
out his permission, has been elected
as the patron saint of the Democrat
ic party. AS a result the Jefferson
Day banquet which was to have been
held in Washington April 18th, was
cancelled, and other celebrations
have also been thrown into discard.
Officially, the Washington banquet
was disposed of because William
Jennings Bryan, Franklin D. Roose-
welt, JOsephus Daniels, and others.
could not attend. Apparently these
gentlemen had more wisdom in their
destinations than the Democratic
leaders who originally invited them.
1t is important, however, that the
Republicans do not attach too much
to these riffs in the DEM
ocratic lutte. For all of these wars
and rumors of wars the Democrats.
by reason of the solid south elector-
al college backing, have as many

will be wailing on the part not only
of the chiefs of these little govern
mental principalities at losing their
jobs, and there will be additional
wailing on the part of the gentle
men who got them their jobs in the

not worry, and is not likely to wor-

RepubIiean Machine Organized

Republican Machine Organized
In contrast to the drum-beating
demonstrations which are the strik-
ing features of political organiza-
tions, the low-speaking and effective
functioning of the Republican organ
izatiOn under Chairman Butler,
marks a happy and satisfactory de-
parture. 1t can be said without fear
of contradiction that the Republican
National Committee has an operating
efficiency record today which is quite
extraordinary. While Chairman But
Ter has trimmed the expenditures to
a modest figure on the theory that
the people who contribute to cam
paigns are entitled to a careful ex-
penditure of the monies which they
give, the lines of connection through
out the country and into the Repub-
lican centers have been materially
strengthened.
Chairman Butler unconsciously
has the habit of really surprising |
the newspapers by the length of his
vision. Because they had failed to
note the burning of red fire, a group
of New York newspapermen recent
ly called on him to discuss the cam
paign in '26, and in five minutes he
spread before them his program for
not only holding all that the RepUb-
leans now have, but making gains,
4 program so complete in it's way
hat they expressed their admiration9l
or it in the newspaper stories which
hey wrote.
An important fact, well worth not
ng, is the complete association of :
bought between. the President and l
he Chairman. While the President
S president Of all the people OF the
United States, he is also the titular
ead Of the Republican Party, and it
S a matter of congratulation to the
Party that in this case
he Chairman and the President have
his complete unity of thought. This
vas made evident the other day,
5hen the President during a news
aper conference voluntarily spoke
4 most complimentary manner of
he work which the Chairman was
ding and of the confidence which he
ad in him.

ferent primary operations. The mer
who have held their utilization with
the creatures who created them DO.
litically, as paramount to the inter
ests of all the people, have built fOI
themselves political funeral pyres
on which their future is sacrificed by
those who have used them as tools.
Two years hence the people of Del
aware will realize that they must
nominate men and women for the
legislature who are capable of rec
ognizing the fact, that they are not
automitons, to represent any sec
ton, clique or individual; but, are
representatives of all the people and
that their individual district has not
the right to ask individual recogni-
ton, only as a unit of the whole
state. More men of the calibre of
Louis A. DreXler are needed in our
legislative assemblies; but they will
not be nominated by politicians-the
people must attend to that at the
primary elections.

THE ONE HUNDREDTH session
of the General Assembly has passed
into history, and results accomplish
ed, or which it failed to accomplish
are debatable questions. without
question it spent money with a more
lavish hand than has any Delaware
legislative body in the history of our
commonwealth. Providing bond is
sues for new armories, for the Wo-
mans College at Newark, for both
County and State Highways, and al
lowing the several municipalities in
the state to issue new bonds, it ap-
parently took the stand that the fl
nances of the state were unlimited.
But-siX members of the Senate
through their votes-killed the
Pierre du Pont school rebuilding
plan, even though an offer was made
by Mr.. du Pont through the Della
ware School Auxiliary, to guarantee
The state against one penny loss. In
his instance, only did the General /
Assembly bear in mind the financial
of the state. In the face j
If apparent statewide demand for /
he passage of that bill, they stood t
o the last as unit to defeat it; and i
accomplished that purpose. I
The sinister force of personal mall /
ce and hatred factionalism, is di- i
ectly responsible for the injury in !
licted upon the school children of t
Delaware, and while the curtain has t
creened the individuals responsible, '
hey are known and will have to pay v
Or their crime. r
Starting early in the session as a i
legislature, the session t
nded much as it had started, with d
he two houses fighting each other, b
nd with no possibility of formulat-
lg a plan for the public schools
7hich would meet with the approx
of those in opposition. Fine high +
'ays have been provided for, higher l,
ducation advanced; but the children a
the poor cannot afford to pay their Il
-ay through college, must still study h
buildings which are a disgrace to D
ny community This is the sum to- il

KICKING is A HABIT, and may
be either natural or acquired. The
habit of complaining, of criticising,
of fault finding, or grumbling over
tri1es, a habit of looking for shad-
ows, is a most unfortunate habit to
contract, especially in early life. The
victim is sure to become a slave. All
the impulses will become perverted.
The tendency to pessimism and Gym
icism will become chronic.
