That there will be no contests at

GRAPE DEMONSTRATION
Additional Vineyards Will Be Added

In addition to the continuation OF

of commercial fertilizers in the Con-

the supervision of the agricultural

County Agent Russell E. Wilson in

section of the county.
Demonstrations on the use of one
hundred pounds of muriate of po-
tash per acre in addition to the
other fertilizer in six vineyards in
the county last year showed some
very interesting results in that on
the average the yield per vine was
increased and in most instances the
grape clusters were larger and more
compact with a less degree of shat
tering at harvest time. These facts
and observations, therefore, seem to
indicate that more potash is needed
in the majority of our grape vine-
yards, and these results also supple

MOTORISTS OPPOSE
GAS TAX INCREASE
National Organization Says Many
States Take Advantage OF Owners

Vigorous opposition to the grow
ing tendency on the part of state
legislatures to increase gasoline
taxes beyond reasonable limits was
expressed by the American Motor
lists Association, the National Body
of the Delaware Automobile Asso-
citation, in a warning issued at
Washington this week.
Motorists do not object to paying
a reasonable gasoline tax when the
funds are used for the construction
and maintenance of roads," the as
sociation declared, "but they do OBJ
ject to the payment of unreasonable,
unjust and inequitable gasoline
taxes and particularly where por-
ton of the tax fund is diverted to
general public uses"
The privilege of taxing gasoline is
being abused in some states simply
because it is a convenient method of
raising revenue and because the
is available for use immedi-
ately upon collection, the associa-
tons statement points out.
Motorists now pay gasoline taxes
in each of the 48 states of the un-
ion. Fifteen states, and the District
of Columbia, charge rate Of two
cents per gallon, fourteen states
charge three cents, twelve states
four cents, six states five cents, and
one state six cents.

imposed in Oregon ten years ago,

GOVERNOR ASKS U.S..
MONEY FOR ROADS
State Department Hopes To Build
Farm Highways Under Della

Governor Buck was in Washing.
ton, D. c., this week with Chief En-
gineer Mack of the Delaware State
Highway Department, where they
had conference with P. st. ]. Will
son, Chief Engineer of Bureau of
Public Roads.
Reluctance on the part of the Fed
eral Engineer to approve of FEEDER
al aid for number of secondary or
so-called farm roads that the High
way Commission had planned to
build, induced the Governor to take
the matter up at once with the Fed
eral Department as the State High
way program for this year depends
largely upon Delaware's share of
Federal funds, and any cause that
would prevent the State from re-
ceiving all of its share for the year
would seriously curtail the seasons

When asked if he believed he
would encounter much difficulty in
out the matter, Cover
nor Buck replied that he hoped that
as soon as he and Mr.. Mack had
placed the facts before the Federal
Chief Engineer, that he would i'm
see the justification of the
claims and approve of apportioning
the Federal money for the roads that
the Highway Department had al
ready chosen to be built this year.

IMPORTANT PLACES
Senator's Hastings And Townsend
Fare Well On Appointments

Both of Delaware's new Republi-
can Senators Jared exceptionally
well at the hands of the Republican
caucus, in the matter of committee
assignments, it was revealed Mon
day.
Senator Hastings will serve on the
following committees: Postofice and
post roads, judiciary, privileges and
elections and the committee on the
District of Columbia.
Senator Townsend was assigned
to membership on agriculture and
forestry, banking and currency,
claims and the committee on irriga-
ton and reclamation.

both Senators will give them an op-
portunity for much important work
in the interests of the states.
Senator Townsend was especially
anxious for assignment to the agri-
cultural committee which will deal
with pending farm legislation.
Senator Townsend said in connec-
tion with this committee work that
he would go along with President
Hoover as regards the debenture
plan, but that he was without ex-
preston from Delaware farmers on
this subject.

SEEK INFORMATION ON
CONTROL OF CANCER
Delaware Committee Asks Physi-
clans To Report On Cures

Everyone in Delaware desires to
know the cancer situation as it is
related to the possibility of cure. No
group is more interested than the
physicians. The problem to be solved
is whether available skill and exist
ing knowledge are being given all
the opportunity to which they are
entitled to reduce cancer mortality
and to relieve suffering.
Delaware up to the present time
has not evaluated the results pro-
duced in the field of cancer during
the year 1923 Give years ago). On
the other hand, many cancer insti-
tutions and specialists point with
pride to their results. To solve these
problems as they relate to cancer
clinics, cancer records, and social
and nursing service follow-up is one
of the aims of the Delaware Cancer
Committee. That the conditions
found in these fields can be improv-
ed is already evident.
In order to bring this fact home to
every physician and in order to get
a minimum figure which will serve
as a basis for comparison five years
hence, the Cancer Committee is en-

Senator Daniel o. Hastings, of
Delaware, has reintroduced in the
Senate the du Pont super-highway
bill, providing for the construction
of post road and military highway
from a point on or near the Atlantic

Former Senator T. Coleman du

connect the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts in order to take care of the
ever increasing automobile and
truck traffic, as well as to provide
for modern means of motor trans
portation that might be utilized by
the nation in time of emergency.
Senator du Pont first introduced the
bill in 1926. It was referred to the
postoffice and post roads committee,
but no action has been taken.

"GOLD STAR" MOTHERS
TO VISIT FRANCE 1890
To Make Pilgrimage To American
Cemeteries In Europe

In response to a request from the
Secretary of War James w. Good
the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the
U. S. will cooperate with the gov
ernment in sponsoring the pilgrim
age of Gold Star mothers and wild
ows of A. E. F. heroes to the Ameri-
can cemeteries in Europe, accord
ing to an announcement released
this week from national headquar-
ters by Eugene P. Carver, Jr., Bos-
ton, Mass, national commander.
The pilgrimage, made possible by
legislation vigorously advocated by
the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the
U. S., for the past three years, will
provide mothers, and unmarried
widows of those men still buried in
France, their first opportunity to
visit the graves of their loved ones.
The Secretary of War is authoriz-
ed to arrange this pilgrimage, to be
made at the expense of the govern
ment, and only those mothers and
widows who have not previously
made a visit to the American ceme-
teries in France are entitled to par
ticipate.
The bill, making the trip possible,
set the dates for these trips COM
May 1, 1880, and ending Oc-
tober 81, 1888. Special passports will
be issued without cost to alien mo-
theirs and widows so as not to inter-
fere or jeopardize their re-admis-
sion into the United States.
The pilgrimage will be made by
the most direct route and for the
shortest practicable time. In no case
will the mothers or widows be per-
mitted to remain in Europe for long
er than two weeks from the time of
to the time of re-em-
barkatiOn.
At the present time there are
80 ,405 bodies buried in American
cemeteries in Europe and 130 Amer
lean soldiers buried in graves out
side of these cemeteries.
Gold Star mothers and widows ell
igible for the pilgrimage are urged
by Commander-in-Chief Carver to
contact local posts of the Veterans
of Foreign Wars of the U. S. for as
sistance in making arrangements.
Advice and aid will also be available

chairman of the national
legislative committee of the V. F. W.,
D. c., who will coop
crate with the Quartermaster-Gener-
al of the Army in assisting those ell
Igible for the trip to Europe.
