Shore and Washington. 1t

which tends to building up

tions of the State separated
by the Chesapeake, and it
knows that whatever makes
for greater prosperity for
these sections helps all of
Maryland. The ferry will be
a link in a splendid highway
leading through Delaware
from the north down the
Eastern Shore to the bay. 1t
should attract both CONNER
cial and tourist travel, and
when visitors become ac-
quainted with the many ad-
vantages the Shore offers as a
place of sojourn and residence
they are certain to fall vic
tins to its charms.
And Baltimore, while it will
also be brought into closer
contact wit the Eastern Shore
BY the new service, is also in
in seeing a steadily /
swelling tide of traffic cross
ng the Chesapeake. This

live executives the State OF
Delaware has ever had and he
IS making a record that is be-
ing commended. The Every
Evening pertinently says: "If
the course mapped out by
Governor G. Douglass Buck in
dealing with State obligations
is adhered to by all who have
anything to do with the mat
ter, it ought to be possible, in
the near future, to give
thought to reduction of tax
es, particularly those imposed
now for operating automo-
biles. The S12,O0O,OOO debt
incurred during the past II
years, in order to carry out
the highway building pro-
gram, has been reduced to
S4,000,000, and by the end of
the current year what re-
mains to be paid is likely to
be only about S3,OOO,OOO. To
show for the outlay the State
has upwards of 500 miles of
hard, durable roads. And
none have been permitted to
deteriorate.
"The liquidation of this
debt, in so short a period, is
a matter for congratulation
1t reflects credit upon the
State Highway Department,
the admirable management of
which has made it possible
for Governor Buck to pave
the way for pay-as-we-go
policy, which he has been ad-
vocating.
-Now, if the incoming Leg
islature will follow the Gov
ernor's advice, and do what it
can toward liquidating what
of the State debt remains un-
paid, rather than waste mon
ey on non-essentials, it will
score another achievement.
"The governor seems to
have pointed the way not only
for a road-building and main
tenance program that will
take care of itself, but also
for lessening the expense to
the motoring public, which
rightfully pays the highway
bill"
