New York Not So Bad,
Latest Figures on
Crime Show

NEW YORK, April New
York isn't such a bad town, not
nearly so wicked as a lot OF
other American cities.
Crime statistics made public
by Frederick L. Hoffman, Stats
tician of the Prudential Insur-
ance Company today, show that
while the murder record of %
cities has mounted in the last
year, New York is fairly low
in the list.
This condition is confirmed by
Police Commissioner McLaugh-
Inns announcement that serious
crimes have declined in recent
months. Arrests for major
crimes in the first two months
of 1926 totaled 1,435. In 1926
they totaled 1887. There was
a slight boost in the homicide
list.
In the rate of murderers per
100, 900 population, New York is
graded at 6.4;5 Chicago at 1873,
and Jacksonville, Fla, at 1878.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, April e.
Eastern Tennessee is another Sec

bid for President CooIidge's sum-
mer rest period.
A movement, led by w. p. Davis,
president of the Great Smoky
Mountains Conservation Associa-
ton. is on foot bere to bring the
President to Tennessee and the
Great Smoky Mountains for his va:
cation. Davis has written a per-
sonal letter to the Chief Executive,
urging him to visit the South and
spend several weeks on or near the
site Of the proposed national park.
The invitation was extended the
President after it was learned from
news dispatches that he would not
spend his summer vacation at
Swampscott this year, but instead
will go to the mountains for the
benefits which a higher altitude
will bring to him.

To wtnekeepers the ''scofflaw

merely wipes his hind feet in a
bucket OF sweetened water and
converts it into high powered

knew OF the properties of "bee

where the bees "fe1nented" the in

Later settlers watched the "wine

the fermentation was accomplished
by pollination, but the secret of
the correct pollen remains a mys-

Recently whole family of

Colma, just south Of San Francisco,
going from there in increasing
numbers to San Mateo and Bur

Beekeepers in that section recog.

them with materials for their trade.
All that is required is a jar OF
sweet water. The bee hunts

points. He was particularly interest
ed in the perfection of strawberry cul-
ture at the w. F. Allen Nursery at
Salisbury, the evergreens at Harri-

small farm possibilities of Sussex
County. Nowhere within a thousand
miles are there such opportunities for

cause Del-Mar-Va products to be de-
manded by the consumer as indeed
they are now in demand by dealers"
Mr.. Hart is particularly interested in
flowers, being a nationally known
authority on dahlias and gladiolii. He
made an interesting suggestion to the
effect that the Dutch specialists on

American markets, because of the
embargo against the shipment of

spect the Del-Mar-Va Peninsula
where soil and climatic conditions are
ideal for their purpose. ''This is just
one instance of a wide range of pos
sibilities in the fruit and horticultural
field in Del-Mar-Va," remarked Mr..
Hart. Another visito over the week

DELAWARE TO GET S2,93O,0OO
FOR FEDERAL AID HIGHWAYS
THIS WITH 100000 OR MORE THE
STATE SPENDS, MEANS MUCH
Federal Government Will Expend, 1t
is Said, More Than Billion Dollars
In ROads-DeIaware Share


Of the more than a billion dollars
expected by the United States Bu-
reau of Public Roads to be expended
in 1926, $2,93O,OOO is listed as the
probable expenditure by the Delaware
State Highway Department, supple
mented by 100000 listed as the prob
able expenditure of the local author
tiles in the State. Of the fund to be
expended by the State Highway De-
partment, $367,537 is in the form of
Federal aid available to the State. A
summary made public Wednesday by
the Bureau of Public Roads shows
that a total of $1,000, ,286,948 is avail
able for the construction and main
tenance of all rural roads. Fifty
eight per cent or $685., 8,39O,918 is to be
available to the State Highway De-
partment, of which $461, Sic, 400 is for
construction and S137,O75,548 for
maintenance. These funds, it is stat
ed, will provide for the construction
of 6,751 miles of asphalt, concrete and
brick paving, 14,32O miles of sand
clay, gravel and macadam, and 8,145
miles of improved earth road. The
states also plan to maintain 234,582
miles of road. The total expenditures
by counties and local units for both
maintenance and construction is esti-
mated at $431, 100000, which is less
than the similar estimate made a year
ago by $31, O,OOO-offset, however,
by the increase of more than $58,OOO,-
600 in funds available to the state
highway departments. The trend con-
tinues towards placing control of all
important state roads in the hands of
the state higway departments.
