vember 9.-Action has been postponed
for at least fortnight on the request
of the Spanish government for extra
dition of three prominent Spanish Off
GERS arrested three weeks ago at Nice
in connection with the conspiracy
against Gen. Primo de Rivera in Spain.
The Spanish government has been
asked by the Chamber of Indictments,
before whom the extradition pleas were
made, to furnish before the expiration
of that time additional information as
to the charges against the three off,
GERS, who are of a most prominent
Spanish family.
These charges are not of completely
in the plot against the Spanish premier,
although their arrests were made orig
inally on that count, but involve the
alleged swindling of an American.
whose name has been given variouSly
as Paul Rosenbaum of Philadelphia.
and "Blumenthal," banker of Phila-
delphia, of $4,000.
In this connection the explanation
has been made here that the Spanish
government had evidence to support
both the embezZlement and conspiracy
charges against the men, but preferred
to prosecute on the former embezzle-
ment being most serious offense In
Spain.
The officers are Col Ildefonso de los

BERLIN, November 9.-The tenth an
niversary of the proclamation of the
German republic today rekindled Jour-
nalistic passions over the fate of the
fatherland with surprising vehemence
The daily papers were sharply divided
between paeans of praise for the new era
which began on November 9, 1918, and
what was described in the monarchistie
press as "Germany's day of deepest dis
grace"
Depending on the point of view. Ebert
Scheidemann,~ Noske and their CO.
workers for the republic were described
as courageous men who saved the
fatherland from disaster or as usurrers
who forced their Emperor into exile.

NAVY IS SEEKING
AIRSHIP BASE DATA
Selection of Site for Two New Dir
igibles' Port Sought in De-
partment Statement.

Information that will aid in the Sc
lection of a site for new airship base
for the two new dirigibles, contract for
| which has been let, is being sought by
the Navy Department, according to a
statement issued by Assistant Secretary
of the Navy for Aeronautics Edward p
Warner. He said that the Pacific Coast
was the logical place, and added there
have been several offers of sites, some
of which have been on terms that
amount almost to gift of the land.
While there is no authority from
Congress to establish new base, the
matter is one which must become &C
tive shortly if airship development Is TO
continue.
THE Navy Department" the state
ment continues, sis particularly DESTROYS
that the base be located where metz
geological and other conditions will be
as near ideal as practicable. A salts
factory site requires at least an 800
acre tract of drained land. The mini
mum dimension of the tract should oe
at least 1000 feet. Approaches to the
site should be clear of high obstruc-
tionS, and there should be no mountains
for a number of miles in any direction
1t is desirable that the site be near
some existing naval activity. Winds
should be gentle and so far as possible
constant in direction.
1.-THE Navy Department is endeavor-
ing to obtain data of the following
character:
AREA available, including map show

SCHOOL MEETING
LARGELY ATTENDED TO
TALK CONSOLIDATION
[csntinned from frst taael

for any questions which might be
asked. Senator l. d. Short asked
several questions bearing upon the
financial side of the problem. One
of these was to the effect, that if
Milford does consolidate and votes
for the bond issue, will state money
be available? This neither DR.. Hol-
loway, Mr.. Shilling nor George Will
liams, president of the State Board
of Education, would definitely
promise. They gave as their reason
the fact that Seaford, Georgetown,
Bridgeville and other towns are also
after money for building programs,
and that all will be decided upon
their merits when application is
made for State aid. Senator Short
also asked whether the conditions
at Milford or at Seaford were
worse. He was told that Seaford
has poorer conditions than has Mil
ford, but attention was also called
to the fact that Milford may expect
aid from both Kent and Sussex
counties, while Seaford has only
the Sussex county fund to draw
from. Regardless of the lack of a
definite promise, it is the consensus
of opinion among those familiar
with the conditions here that Mil
ford will get a school if a consOlida-
ton is made.

MILFORD GRANGE

The time was so fully occupied
last Saturday, with balloting on
names of candidates and other bust
ness, that the expected practice did
not take place. However the degree
team has worked faithfully all the
week, and much progress has been
made. Next Saturday afternoon a
short business meeting will be held
at two o'clock with Juveniles meet
ing at the same hour. In the eve
ming the first and second degree will
be conferred in full form on a large
class of candidates, who will come
from many oranges in Sussex and
Kent counties. This will be the first
meeting in any of our local oranges,
and is going to do much toward adj
vancing interest and enthusiasm in
grange work throughout the state.
The Juvenile matron will attend and
will take care of any children who
may be present. Every patron
should make an effort to be at this
meeting. Preparations for the play
are going on and date will soon be

SUSPEND STUDENTS
FOR FRESH" HAZINCS
[Continred from first taae1

Council was unable to get the par.
Elephants of the hazing and agreed
that the faculty conduct an investi-
cation of the matter.
AS result of the investigation by
the faculty it is said that the eight
students confessed their part in the
alleged hazing. 1t is rumored, how
ever, that the students who actually
padded some freshmen are not
among the eight who have been sus-
pended and consequently the probe
to learn the names of the others
may continue.
Both the Faculty and the Student
Council have kept secret the names
of the eight students suspended. It
is understood that these students
will remain in Newark during the
four weeks suspension and try to
keep up with their work even
though they do not attend classes.
There has been some criticism of
the fact that the violations took
place last November and action of
the faculty was not taken until this
week. The answer of the faculty
to that criticism is said to be that
the investigation was not completed
until recently and that the faculty
then decided not to take action until
the end of the first term so that
the students would get credit for the
work of that term, whereas had they
been thrown out" in November they
would not have gotten credit for any
work done.

courses in no way replace profess
! sional opinions.
Other lectures deal with Infant
Care" and First Aid"
DR.. Sargent and DR.. Arthur II.
Davis, executive secretary of the
State Board of Health, are much
gratified with the results obtained.
| The course of lectures was institut-
ed as an experiment and were cleo
tive on the part of the students,
there being nothing compulsory
about them. The response though,
and this later fact that the students
mothers now want to enjoy the ben
eft from the lectures, is proof that
they are considered valuable.
Another activity that DR.. Sargent
will inaugurate in Kent county is
classes for teachers in the public
schools. Once a week at the reading
circles of teachers and with the en-
dorsement of the Kent County Board
of Education, DR.. Sargent will eX-
plain how to detect various contagi-
Gus ills.
Recently at one school he visited
the teacher called his attention to a
girl who was sick, and so ill from
tonsilitis that she could not sit Up.
She came to school rather than |e-
main at home in order that her rec
ord of attendance might not be i'm
paired. Fortunately for her and also
the remainder of the students, her
sore throat was tonsilitis. But it
might have been diphtheria, DR.. Sar-
gent pointed out and in that event If
the proper precautions were taken
the school would have been closed
for a day or two until it could be
fumigated and this would have
meant lost time for all the students.
At another school he visited there
was a sick pupil, and there was lit
tie trouble in diagnosing the cause.F
It was whooping cough and there IS

PLAN STRICTER
CHECK ON MILK
[COntinned from first Bagel

grandfather, great-grandfather and
other forebears have been used to
washing the milk pans and cans in
the kitchen sink. This is contrary to
regulations if the milk is offered for
sale. Each time that an inspection
has been made, in these three years,
farmers whose home made dairy in
cluded the kitchen, has been notified
that this should be remedied.
Many have not realized the seri-
BUSINESS of the situation and nave
disposed of the inspector by promis-
ing to make the necessary changes.
It is this situation that has brought
about the suggestion of standard
grading of all diaries. This grading
plan would mean that the standard
dairyman would be graded. The
creamery or purchaser of milk
would be able to detect from the
compulsory marking of the milk bot
tie cap whether the milk he was
buying was bottled under clean con-
ditions.
R. c. Beckett, sanitary engineer of
the State Board of Health, is re-
inspecting the dairies to determine if
any of these who have been granted
licenses have been remiss in keep
ing them up to standard. AS whole
it has been found that the licensed
dairymen are maintaining their
plants satisfactorily.
It is believed that just as soon as
the dairymen, who have failed to
obey the State law, realize the bene-
fit that will accure from doing so
through a more advantageous sale
of their milk they will comply with
it, officials believed. There are some
which refuse to buy milk
from any except legitimately licens-
ed dairymen. In this connection the
dairyman who is without State
license has no chance whatever of
selling his milk to them. Fortunate
ly many of the unlicensed dairymen
have but trifing irregularities that
could be corrected if they desired to
DO so. the inspectors say.

BASKETBALL PROVIDES
LOCAL ENTERTAINMENT
rcnntinred from first taqel

Groves. playing a position that
, receives little recognition from the
fans, played the finest game OF the
wear. Sharp, Capt. Wooten and
Griffith, the high scorer of the game,
had their eye on the basket. Some
of Grifith's shots drew gasps from
the SPECTATORS as the ball cut clearly
through the cord for a field goal.
George Wroten, the little southpaw
forward. had little chance to show
his wares for he was closely fol-
lowed by guard throughout the
game.
The girls game was rather one
sided affair that was interesting
only from the standpoint of the
clean basketball displayed. The
Smyrna forward proved their super
iority over the Milford guards early
in the game. The same plug went
for a score time after time.
The Milford center duo is the best
seen on the Community Club floor
this year. The forwards hold their
own, but the guarding has been
woefully weak all during the year.
The fast-moving 1927 State cham
pions from Frankfort defeated the
boy basket tossers of Milford in a
rather listless game at the Com
munity Club by a score of 1926.
The Milford girls prevented the eve
ming from being a total loss by
handing a defeat to the Frankfort
girls.
The girls met little opposition and
had a comparatively easy time Of it.
The guards showed marked i'm
provement and kept the Frankfort
forwards from striking their stride.
The Milford girls have developed
better passing game than the boys.
The work of the center duo and the
forward pair is very delightful to
watch.
The first half of the boys game
found the teams tied at 1920. The
second half found Milford jumping
into a short lead that was destined
not to last long. Sharp, the fighting
center, went out on personals, and
with him went the teams fight.
the Frankfort team
jumped into a lead that was never
overcome.
