AUTOMOBILES COLLIDE

Cars driven by Harry Laws, 9th
and Poplar, Wilmington, and Emma
Walls, of Milton, collided at the
intersection of Washington and Sec
ond Street, South Milford, Sunday
night. The automobiles were dam
aged, but the occupants were unin-
Jured. Officer Davis, who investi-
gated the accident, found that Miss
Walls did not have a drivers license.
She was arrested and taken before
Justice Hendrixson, who imposed a
fine of $25 and cost. The car she
was driving belonged to Isaac Pyle,
of Milton, who was with her at the
time of the accident.

QUARANTINE STATION SITE
TO Be STATE PROPERTY
Continued from first page)


the government that he desires that
the buildings remain. The formal
transfer of the land back to the
state will be made within a few
days.
In the near future Adjutant Cen
eral J. Austin Ellison, will inspect
the tract and buildings to see if it
would not be possible to use it as a
camp site for the Delaware National
Guards.
The State Public Lands Com
mission, which will control the old
quarantine tract which was aband-
oned by the government as quar-
antine station about ten years ago,
has already turned over to the
National Guard a large tract of
land near Bethany Beach for use as
a camp The War Department soon
will erect buildings upon this tract
for use of the guardsmen.
If the quarantine tract is found
to be suitable for use as a camp
site or an auxiliary camp, the
Bethany Beach camp site will not
be abandoned, the Governor eX-
planned, stating that we've gone to
far with it to give it up"
He said that the only objection to
the quarantine tract as a camp
would be the fact that the guard
could not use their anti-aircraft
guns because of traffic in the Della
ware Bay. The big guns can be US
ed at the Bethany Beach site.
"The State is lucky in having the
old quarantine tract turned back to
it with all those buildings on it,
said the Governor" The buildings
are in a good state of repair, al
though they may need repainting.
Well find some good use for it,
sooner or LATER,
The barracks on the tract, the
Governor said, have capacity Of
about 600 persons.
