ADJUSTMENTS
Smyrna times., 1929-01-23

Some of the members of the Legis-
lature Thursday had an informal talk
with Governor G. Douglas Buck in ref
erence to claims of the members of
the last Legislature which We're ap-
proved by the two houses and later
vetoed by the Governor. The claims
to which no objections had been made
have already been paid. It has been
practically agreed to have the present
committee on claims approve the bills
for mileage, but all other claims will
have to be taken up with the COM
mittee. The extra pay and number
of other allowances which were pre-
viously asked will be dropped.
The first session Of the Dover Night
School was held Friday night at the
school building with a very large en-
rollment. The subjects and teachers
of these classes are as follows: Ele-
mentary, (reading, writing, spelling,
arithmetic), taught by Mrs. Harry
Heite, of the Dover High School; Par
liamentary Law and Public Speaking,
taught by Mrs. Floy Booth, Of Will
mington; Salesmanship, taught by
Prof. Talbot, Of Wilmington High
School; Child Study, taught BY Mrs.

Boy Accused of Firing
Home to See Sweetheart

Cumberland, Md.-Arrested after he
is said to have made a confession to
police, David P. Lewis, eighteen years
old, is in Jail here on a charge Of at
tempted arson.
Lewis, authorities declared, con-
fessed that he attempted to set fire
to the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Francis
Screen on October % in order to scare
Bernetta Wilson, his sweetheart, who
was in the house, outside, so he could
talk to her.
Lewis was arrested on information
furnished by Mrs. Eva Wilson, who
lives with the Screen family and who
reported hearing noise late on the
night of the fire. She went to a win
dow and saw a familiar form hurrying
away. The fire had been kindled in
the basement and was extinguished
before it caused any damage.

Democrats were mentioned as the men
who were going to offer the resolution
but they denied that they were at this
time although expressing the opinion
that something might be done later.
They admitted that they had heard of
te plan but refused to talk for publ
cation. When asked who was to be
investigated, one of the men who IS
familiar with the plan declared that
they were after no one in particular.
What the Legislators desired to as
certain was whether the prohibition
law was being enforced, and if it was
not being enforced they wanted to
know why it was not. They thought
it would be well to have an investiga-
ton SO that the public might know
exact conditions. If the law is not
being enforced then conditions could
be remedied by either giving the of
ficials additional power or by chang
ing the entire system of handling such
cases.

Tramp Unable to See
Idea of Wasting Pie

A tramp called at a motion picture
studio, begging for something to eat.
'Just the man we need!" cried the
director. "You require no makeup.
Our tramp failed to show up. Do
what you're told, and I'll see that you
eat.
"Now, when l give the signal, you
steal this custard pie from the Win
dow-sill, and run around the house.
A policeman will chase you, and when
he is about to catch you, you throw
the pie at him.
"Take careful aim, and, if possible,
hit him in the face"
At the given signal, the tramp ap-
propriated the pie and disappeared
behind the house. In a little while
a policeman gave chase, and cornered
him.
The director shouted:
''Throw the pie, throw the pie!'' No
pie was forthcoming!
The irate director had the camera
stopped and then he roared: "Why
didn't you throw the pie? Where
is it?"
The tramp, wiping his mouth with
his coat sleeve, answered: "When
gets my hands on a pie. l eats it."
You're f1red!" thundered the di-
rector.
"WrOng again, pard," said the tramp
when I eats, quits!"

LEGISLATIVE BOOTLEG PROBE
Move F0stered in Lower Part of State
Due to Rumors About Enforcement

Efforts are being made by the Dem

have a legislative investigation made
of the bootlegging situation in Will

being made by the authorities to en-
force prohibition. 1t is understood
dry Republicans will be asked to join

prohibition enforcement in the last

that Wilmington was suffering from
illegal liquor sales. Both parties, it
is claimed, stood for enforcement of
the law and now it is proposed to as

positions of the different horses are
determined by the avreage percentage
of the membership quota obtained by
the Legion and the Auxiliary depart
ments in the various states. The
Minnesota department is in the lead
because of the splendid work of the
Auxiliary in that state. The Auxil-
iary has attained more than 20 per
cent of its 1929 quota while the Leg
ion has only reached little over 80
per cent of its quota, which gives the
Minnesota horse an average of 81 per

A meeting Of the Cecil County
Chamber of Commerce, the Elkton
Chamber of Commerce and the East
ern Shore Highway Association was
held in the Court House at Elkton,
Nd, last week, for the purpose Of dis
cussing the proposed plan to have a
bridge erected across the canal at
Bethel. Congressman Goldsborough
ard other prominent men Of Maryland
discussed the proposition. The Con-
gressman advised those interested to
work with the County bodies of the
Eastern Shore, and the State Highway
Commission on this project. When the
new canal was constructed the Gov
eminent removed the old bridge which
spanned the canal at Bethel and de-
cided that bridge at this point was
not necessary, and there has been a
great deal of dissatisfaction among
the people of Cicil County, over its
removal. About 100 people attended
this meeting and all of them were
very enthusiastic over the proposed
movement for new bridge.

1t is doubtful if Delaware farmers
will raise much broccoli, Italian green,
this winter. For several years pre-
vious, it has been the first crop har-
vested in the spring. Years ago it
brought good prices and because it
grew without much cultivation. Farm
ers in other States, however, learning
of the little amount Of attention re-
quired and the good prices obtained
for it have planted thousands Of acres
Last winter broccoli was sold in this
section, coming all the way from Tex
as. Many southern States are raising
it and the Delaware farmer, antici-
pating another glut in the market this
winter is not going to bother it. Many
farmers have ploughed their broccoli
patches under.
