JEWS TO HEAR BLIND RABBI

Rabbi Michael Aaronsohn who

Jews of the entire area outside of
Wilmington will assemble in the

Michael Aaronsohn in his mission

has been heard by thousands of
Jews and non-JeWs in scores of
cities throughout the land. He has
organized Jewish student groups
in high schools and universities;
has visited hospitals, asylums and

POSTMASTERS NAMED SOON
Changes Likely in Seaford, Milford
and Claymont Rumored

Rumors were prevalent recently
of changes that are likely to take
place in three post offices in Della
ware towns 1t is expected by
many observers that there will be
new postmasters in Seaford, Mil
ford and Claymont in the near fu-
ture. The present occupants of
these positions are J. Avery Wiley
in Seaford who has been postmast-
er there for years; Mark Dav-
is, of Milford, who has been a
postmaster for the same length of
time, and Richard Mcclure, of
Claymont, also a postmaster for
eight years. Mcclure has asserted
that he intends to move to Cali
fornia when his successor is ac-
cepted. The terms of Davis and
Wiley expire in March. Accord
ing to reports from these towns
competition for these posts is keen
There are said to be eight candi-
dates in Claymont, five in Seaford,
and several in Milford. 1t was not
known until recently that there
might be change in Milford, but
reports from that town now are to
the effect that there may be a
change in postmasters there soon.
In discussing the possible changes,
it is pointed out that there is no
criticism of the postmasters or the
method of performance of their
duty. Milford is first-class post
Office, as is Seaford, and these po-
sitions pay over S24O0 year.
Claymont is third-class Office and
is not such an attractive plum, al
though it is one that is wanted by
eight persons, it is said. 1t is said
that the other two postmasters
want to return, but that eight
years is considered by some in
postoffice circles as a sufficiently
long term. Just what the result
will be is not known, but develop
ments are expected soon.

PORTER POST OFFICE CLOSES
Discontinued by Postal Depart
ment After March 31st, 1880

According to a report from
Washington, it was stated that
Porter's post Office will be discon-
tinued by the postal department as
"a fourth class post office after
March 81. The postmaster is
Archie w. Bradley, who is assisted
by one clerk. The move to discon-
tinue the office is a part of the
program to further centralize and
simplify the service, it was stated.
From March 81 on, all mail ad-
dressed to Porter will be delivered
through Bear, and persons sending
mail through Porter should notice
this change. The Postal Depart
ment as a result of the use Of the
automobile for making rural de-
liveries, has found, it was stated,
that many rural post Offices in
many states are no longer used as
much as formerly, due to the fact
that the farmers go to the nearest
towns to do business, passing by
many of the small post offices in
communities where there is little
business enterprises. The other
stations which have been discon-
tinued in Delaware during the past
six months are Erenford, Forest,
Oakley, Hickman and Harmony.

Truck Drivers or Tourists Passing

1t looks war to the finish on
the part of the motor vehicle au-
thorities of New Jersey against
i Delaware motorists. No sooner
had Secretary of State Charles H
Grantland come from an amicable
conference with Motor Vehicle
Commissioner Eynon at Harris
burg, Pa, than he learned of the
drastic way in which the New Jer-
i sey authorities were treating Del
aware truck drivers. Secretary
Grantland got into communication
with Motor Vehicle Commissioner
Dill, at Trenton, to learn that
there would be no reciprocal rela-
tons between the States of New
Jersey and Delaware, which would
permit Delaware truck drivers to
drive on New Jersey roads without
"a Jersey license. Commissioner
Dill informed Secretary Grantland
that his term of Office would eX-
pire in a few months and that it
was "up to the new man to make
any other Interpretation of the
New Jersey motor law" Della
ware truckers who use New Jer-
sey roads are learning to their sor-
row that they must take out a
New Jersey license. But the mat
ter doesn't stop there. The New
Jersey motor authorities have
made a ruling that all Delaware
motorists, whether truck drivers
or tourists, passing through the
State Of New Jersey must carry
liability insurance. AS not every
one takes this precaution it is like
ly that the coming touring season
will bring a lot of unpleasantness
for Delaware motorists, who for
any reason fall afoul of the high
way police of New Jersey. In in
stances that have occurred up to
this time in New Jersey where
Delaware motorists have been
called to account because of some
technical traffic violation and the
highway police have learned they
carried no liability insurance, Del
awareans were told to get out of
the State and not. return unless
they carried liability insurance.
Mr.. Grantland said that because
of the refusal of Commissioner
Dill to do anything regarding rec
iprocal relations that he was pow
erless to make any further head
way in adjusting the trouble until
the new motor vehicle commission
er takes Office. Concerning the
Pennsylvania situation, Mr.. Grant
land said he had effected a gen
tlemen's agreement" between
Pennsylvania and Delaware. Penn
sylvania truck drivers will be al
lowed to operate on Delaware
roads with a Pennsylvania license
without having to take out a lie
ense in this State. The same
courtesy will be accorded Della
ware licenses in Pennsylvania

FORTUNE FOUND SECRETED
IN ROOM when WOMAN DIES
$4,000 HIDDEN IN ROOM OF
MISS FANNIE HURLOCK
Believed to be Relatively Poor was
Employed for Every Evening 80
Years-Natiye Smyrnian

When relatives Of Miss Fannie
Hurlock, who died at the age of
81, at the home of Mrs. Walter G..
Hurlock, 1017 Spruce Street, Will
nington, with whom she boarded,
Friday, March IA, and who was
buried Monday, March II, started
looking through the effects in Miss
Hurlock's room, sum in gold,
bills and represented by bank
books, totalling nearly $4,000 was
found. Miss Hurlock, who was be-
lieved to have been relatively poor
and who worked until she was
forced to stop by sickness, had
accumulated small fortune
which no one was aware of. Miss
Hurlock learned the printing trade
when young and for the past 80
years, prior to her death, she had
been employed in the office of
Every Evening. In later years her
work was on the copy desk in the
composing room. About S1.100
was found in an old stocking hid
den in the back of a clothes press,
S115 was found in gold coins in
bureau drawer, and four bank
books on various banks were
found in the furniture about the
room. A bank book of the Arts
ans Savings Bank showed savings
that totalled S3,768.41 when the
interest is added. Another on the
Security Trust Company, entered
in a book of the old Security Trust
and Deposit Company, was for ST.
150.39. Another was found for
the Equitable Trust Company
which showed an amount totalling
S1,137.00 having been deposited.
Smyrna times., 1930-03-26

The fourth book was one of the
Wilmington Savings Fund Society,
and this showed an amount in this
bank when last totalled in 1912 of
about $2,876. Since that time, de-
posits of very close to $4,000 have
been added to the account in this
bank, which have never been to-
tailed according to the book which
with interest will make an amount
of well over $4,000 in that bank.
The money and the bank books
were found lying around in var
ious odd corners of the room, and
were turned up one after another
by relatives who thought that
Miss Hurlock may have had lit
tie money, but, did not know she
had small fortune. They were
amazed when first one bank book
and then three other bank books
and a small bag of gold turned up
in the plainly furnished room of
Miss Hurlock, who worked day in
and day out for years, and would
not miss a days work if she could
possibly help it. The money, it is
generally conceded by the rela-
tives, will 60 to a widow, a half
sister of Miss Hurlock, who lives
on a small farm near Cowentown,
Md, not far from Elkton. This
is Mrs. Mary E. Price, who was a
daughter of Miss Hurlock's father
by his first wife. Mrs. Price is a
widow and has no children, and is
herself about 20 years old. She
declined to give her exact age. It
is understood that her only close
relative is an adopted daughter.
Mrs. Walter S.Hurlock, with whom
Miss Hurlock boarded at 1017
Spruce street, is the widow of
Walter Hurlock who for many
years was the grand secretary of
the Grand Castle of the Delaware
knights of the Golden Eagle. He
maintained his office at their home
and worked at Harlan's for many
years. Mr.. Hurlock was a cousin
of Miss Hurlock, and so Mrs. Hur-
lock agrees that she probably has
40 right to the money. Mrs. Hur-
lock has a sister, Mrs. Elizabeth

of this route is now concrete road

use this route in order to avoid
