NAVAL SURVEY SHIPS
EQUIPPED WITH RADIO
Vessels Greatly Aided in Observa'
tions by Means of New
Devices.

The survey vessels of the Navy are
now equipped with radio and sound
devices. which aid materially in max
ing scientific observations, checking
time and measuring depths and shoals
with increased speed and accuracy.
This Summer three vessels, carrying
members of the photographic Office of
the Navy, are to make extensive sur
veys in the Gulf of Panama, the Pa
cific entrance to the canal and along
tie coasts of Central America and
Cuba.
The ships to operate in this cCnnec-
tion are the u. S. S. Hannibal, Mako
mis- and Niagara, all equipped with
the latest radio devices and also what
are known as sonic depth finders, a
sort of close relative to radio, handled
by radio operators, although it utiliZes
sound instead of magnetic waves. The
sCnic depth finder, a war invention,
originates and transmits a sound from
device on it's bottom when it is
under way.
Detecting the echo of Ills sound
when it returns to the receivers on
the ship and noting the time elapsed
gives data from which the depth of
the water may be calculated. Actu-
ally, no calculation is necessary. 1t is
performed mechanically and rapidly
by the instrument, thus permitting a
number of soundings to be made in
rapid succession.
Radio proper is used in these ma
rine surveys in connection with a re-
cording chronograph, or time-record-
ing device, so that the ships chrome
meter may be accurately checked
against time signals sent out by NAA
or other radio transmitters. The
slips timepiece must be kept accu-
rate, or it's exact variation, fast or
slow, must be known in determining
longitudes, the basis of all naviga'
ton and surveying. Besides it's reglI-
lar use for communication, radio is
now being used to receive the daily
weather forecasts, and by some vessels
so equipped even to record the
weather maps. 4 later development
of this map apparatus enables OBJ
servers to study static in connection
with storm centers and paths.

SMYRNA-CLAYTON FOLKS FAVOR
BALTIMORE BRIDGE PROJECT
SEE IN CHESAPEAKE SPAN THE
OPENING OF INTERSTATE ROAD
Also a Ferry From Woodland Beach
to Bay View, Connecting Up With
Jersey Roads to Atlantic City

People in this section of Delaware
are awake to the advantages which
will come to this section if the pro-
posed bridge across the Chesapeake
Bay from a point near Baltimore, on
the West shore of Maryland, to a
point near Colchester Beach, on the
Eastern Shore, is constructed. Many
are also interested in the proposed
ferry from Woodland Beach across
the Delaware Bay to point near
Bay View on the New Jersey shore.
The completion of concrete roads
from COLCHESTER Beach to Woodland
Beach would make a short route for
motorists and also for freight trucks
from Baltimore to Atlantic City and
other points. 1t is estimated that
the proposed route would cut off
about AZ miles of travel. There is
now concrete road leading from
Smyrna to Blackiston's Cross Roads,
a distance of about five miles, and
there is also a concrete road from
Smyrna to point within three miles
of Woodland Beach on the Delaware
Bay. 1t is understood that the State
Highway Commission intends to con
tinue this road to Woodland Beach.
At a mass meeting, held recently in
Chestertown, Nd, John n Mackall,
chairman of the Roads Commission
of Maryland, told the people that
there are good prospects of Maryland
continuing its good roads system
from the Delaware State line to a
point near Millington, Nd. There is
no question that all the roads now
proposed will be completed by the
time that the bridge across the Ches-
apeake is completed. 1t is pointed
out that Delaware would also benefit
in another way because the heavy
shipments of fruit and produce com
ing up the DUPONT Boulevard by mo
tor truck would probably turn off at
Smyrna and take the road to Wood
land Beach and then cross on the
ferry to New Jersey in order to avoid
the heavy traffic which is encountered
along the boulevard and also through
There is little doubt
that the people in this section will do
everything possible both to secure the |
building of the roads proposed and |
also the establishment of the ferry |
across the Delaware Bay as a portion
of the project.

DELAWARE SOLONS WILL HEAR
VIEWS ON LIQUOR LAW REPEALS
HOUSE AND SENATE ARRANGE
JOINT HEARING FOR FEB. 16
Will be Limited to 1O-Minute Speech
es = Desire of Both Vets and
Drys to Get Rid of Measure

BY unanimous vote in each branch,
the Senate and House Monday after
noon concurred in Representative Vir-
| den's concurrent resolution providing
for joint session of both houses in
the Hall of the House of Representa-
tives on Wednesday, February 16, be-
tween the hours of 2 and o'clock in
the afternoon, for the purpose of
hearing any citizen of the State who
desires to be heard on the question of
the repeal of the so-called Klair and
Loose laws. The resolution sets forth
that whereas, there is a Statewide
interest and increasing public discus
sion as to the merits of the bills in
troduced in the Senate and House for
the repeal of the laws, it would ap-
pear to be the wisest policy and the
proper procedure for both branches of
the General Assembly to have the ad-
vocators of and the opponents to the
passage of these measures, present
their views on the same day. Speak
ers are to be limited to not more than
ten minutes. Introduction of the res
olution followed a joint meeting of
the temperance committees of the two
houses early Monday afternoon. The
decision of the members of the two
committees to have the resolution in
troduced was concurred in by both
wet and dry members who are mac
cord with the prevailing sentiment of
members of the General Assembly
that Legislation on other matters of
paramount importance to the citizens
Of the State should not be held up,
as it was two years ago, by discus
sion of the pro and con of this per
ennial question. Throughout the pres
ent session members of the Legisla-
ture have been the constant prey of
lobbyists for or against these dry
law repealers. Several members of
the temperance committees We're in
favor Of setting next Friday for joint
hearing on the bills in order to clear
the calendar for the more important
work to come, but some of the "dry"
leaders objected to this date, and the
following Wednesday was agreed
upon. The Legislature reassembled
Monday after a recess during which
they visited the University of Della
ware to investigate the need for a
100000 Engineering Hall and other
state aid institutions. An avalanche
Of new bills is looked for the next two
weeks. The dead line for new bust
ness is fixed for Friday, February 25
at four o'clock. Several important
bills on the calendar have apparently
remained dormant in committees
since being introduced. Included in
those are the repeater of the So fl
ing fee, the bill to repeal the 25-cent
real-estate tax for schools, the bill to
create a Public Utility Commission,
the Allen bill to create a State Fores-
try Department and the Klair and
Loose law repealers. All Of those
bills, however, will furnish some spir-
tied fights later in the session.

Rev. E. A. Lemoine, the Rector
Next Sunday at the eleven o'clock
service the rector will begin a series
Of sermons on the Church. They will
be given on the second and fourth

Bishop Crusader. The Rt. Rev. Philip
Cook, D. D., bishop of Delaware, will
be the special preacher, other clergy

nationwide movement, and every
Episcopal person should manifest his
and her loyalty by attending the SER
vice, and urging others thither also.

ASSAULT CASE AT CHESWOLD
Charles Craig Arrested for Striking
His Blind Father. a Spanish War Vet

His Blind Father, a Spanish War Vet
Charles Frank Clifford Craig, a
young married man, of near Ches-
void, was held in $1,000 bail for court
on a charge of murderous assault on
his blind father, Charles Craig, a
Spanish-American War veteran, Tues
day, by Magistrate w. D. Burton of
Dover. In default of bail, Craig was
committed to the Kent county jail
He pleaded guilty Saturday. Sentence
deferred. An argument over a stalled
automobile near the farm, where the
veteran, blinded while in active SER
vice in the war with Spain, spends
part of his time, caused the trouble
between father and son, according to
testimony at the hearing. The father
refused to allow his son to get horse
to pull the stalled machine out of the
mud. The son is alleged to have
struck his father with his fists. As
the blind man attempted to grope his
way to the house his son is said to
have picked up a stick of wood and
struck his father over the head with
it. Eight stitches were required to
close the gasn caused by the blow,
testimony showed. Young Craig was
arrested by Privates Bonafcino and
King. At the hearing before the
magistrate, the blind war veteran
asked that his 15-yeaar-old daughter
student in the high school at Dover,
be brought to him. He asked those
in the magistrates court to see that
his girl was well taken care of, as
he believed he would not live much
longer. The veteran bought the little
farm west of Cheswold with his small
savings and government pension.
He divides his time between the little
farm and a soldiers home.
