''The advocates Of the Cramton

feasible but sound. With this,
Major Somerven agrees.

HELP RELIEVE UNEMPLOYMENT
CONDITION IN ARIZONA

| SOVOttbO ttV PNUtG0VH
| Utilizing every resource at the
command Of his Office, Dr.. John
w. Finn. chairman of the State
Committee on Unemployment.
| has issued q call to every citizen
in Arizona, to help relieve the
distress OF the unemployed resi-.
dents of this state, at least for
a few days during the Christ
mas and New Years holiday
season.
The speeding up of ell types
of road work has been requested
by Chairman Finn. through the
! Bureau of Public Roads, the
State Highway Commission. the
Forestry department and the
various counties and cities. This
applies to all other types of con
struction work throughout the
state. This is helping, but it is
far from providing sufficient jobs
for the residents of Arizona, &C.
cording to Chairman Finn who
4 are unemployed. let alone the
problem Of the transient.
! We are asking every citizen
of Arizona. who can possibly af.
ford to do so, even with sacrifice
I on their part, to contribute one
sixth Of q weeks earnings to as
sist men and women, who are
our OF work and who have been
outsof work for months. This
money is to GO TO al Employ.
ment Fund, to be expended by
the committees working under
the direction of the President OF
| chamber Of commerce or similar
Organization- in each locality of
| Arizona. who incidentally serves
as Vice-president of the state
committee" said Chairman
Finn.
Too few people realize the
seriousness Of the unemployed
situation in Arizona. The state
committee has asked each locali.
ty to handle its own problem aud
hss endeavored through state
and federal agencies, as we'll %
county, municipal aud private,
to speed up construction and
the expenditure of appropriations
already made. in order to ex.
pedite work. Advancing pro
| jacts has also been suggested
and recommended. The commit.
ttee has further urged and re.
commended the use Of resident
Arizona labor first and then
transient. For those who wish
to help aud yet may want to- do
the work on their own premises,
l-continued Flinn-they are con
tributing just the same, provid.
ing they will take the names
from the unemployment desks.
| We want every ones help.
It is only through this sort of
united corporation that suffer.
ing can be alleviated and hope
as State Chairman, to see every
man aud woman vino is secure
10 their position, give one-sixth
| OF weeks earnings to the EN-.
ployment Fund" declared Chair
man Finn. Churches are being
requested to cooperate by an.
nouncing from their pulpits the
plan. contacts have been made
with fraternal. service and all
other clubs and organizations.
Broadcasting stations have been
asked to help and the press OF
the State is being urged TO carry
such information as will awaken
a true interest in this important
| problem.
| National assistance has been
directly requested by State
Chairman Finn from Colonel
Woods, in helping stem the tide
of transients who are flooding
the state of Arizona, with the
thought that work is plentiful.

Highway Commission Adopts Res
OIutiOns ON Death of Joseph K.
Holland, of Milford

The Delaware State Highway
Department Wednesday announced
that sealed proposals would be re
ceived by the Department in Do
yer, April 10, for the following
road and other contracts author
lied by the Department: Selby-
vile Georgetown, widening 18.9

ton-Delaney, $40 miles, New Cas-
tie County; Planting dual high
way, St. Georges to State Road,
1-2 mile Contract '"T', one heavy
duty trailer The following reso-
luton was adopted by the State
Highway Commission on the death
of the late Joseph E. Holland, who
had been a member of the commits
sion since its organization in 1927:
Joseph E. Holland. our friend and fel-
low member. is dead. His death on the
eighth of March last. at the age of 70
years, left a vacancy not only in the
membership OF this department but also
in the circle Of our friends. and his place
in the community will long be untitled.
Born at Slaughter Neck he soon moved
to Milford with his family and lived there
throughout the remainder of his life, a
life filled with industry and service. He
was vice-president and director of the Ma
ford for many years a wholesale grocer
and seed man, a leader in affairs of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. and, since it's
inception, a member of this Department.
Long a friend and advocate of good
roads, he was first appointed a member of
this Department on May l. 1917, by Gov
ernor John 6. Townsend. Jr. When his
was reappointed for a new term of 8
years by Governor Robert P. Robinson.
This he served as a member of this depart
ment during its entire existence.
1T is. therefore only fitting and proper
that we, the members of the State High
way Department should order a record to
be made of our appreciation of our late
member. therefore be it
Resolved. By the members of the State
Highway Department, that in the death of
Mr.. Holland this Department has lost one
who has served it faithfully and wisely.
His great interest in this Department and
in the purpose for which it was created,
his character and his influence throughout
the State have smoothed out early difficult
ties and helped US immeasurably in giving
the State of Delaware its present network
of good roads. His service as a member
of this Department has placed the State in
debt to him.

BEETLE OFFICE AT DOVER
This is the Plan When Suitable
Quarters Can Be Obtained

The japanese Beetle quarantine
office located on the second floor
of 218 West Tenth street, may be
moved to Dover, to occupy the Of
fees vacated by the Prohibition
Department. According to w. E.
Cranston, director of the Delaware
quarantine area, he was unable to
confirm the report, but it was
learned from another source that
removal of the office was to be
made for the purpose of centrali-
zation. Already the bulk of Della
ware is in the regulated area. All
of New Castle and Kent counties
and Cedar Creek hundred in Sus-
sex are in the quarantined area.
Five of the twelve hundreds in
Sussex are in what is known as
the lightly restricted area, where
beetles have been found but not in
quantities sufficient to have impos-
ed the strict regulations of quar-
antine. The Sussex hundreds in
the 4ASHl4y ISSuIdNSO dICd dAC IL
the western part of the county,
North West Fork, Nanticoke,
Broad Creek, Little Creek and
Gumboro. The six remaining hun
dreds in Sussex not affected by the
quarantine are Broadkiln, George
town, Dagsboro, Baltimore, Indian
River and Lewes-Rehoboth Mr.
Cranston conferred with Postmas-
ter Simmons, of Dover, recently
about the acquisition of the old Of
fees of the Prohibition Depart
ment. 1t is ideally located since
Dover is in the central part of the
State and farmers in lower Della
ware will not have to motor to
Wilmington for transportation
permits.

One Of the outstanding features in the
exhibit Of the County Comptroller's Report
this year is the great gain in the amount
of money received from the work of Prls-
oners. Last year the amount reported
was only ss072, against s428.63 this
year. This sum equals the receipts from
this source for the four preceding years.
The reason for this great difference is a
question which we think viii naturally
arise in the minds of most taxpayers.
We note that night watchman for the
Court House Building has been employed
at a salary of $1,000 per month, or 100000
per year but also informed that
has has not been equipped with a watch
mans clock. and consequently. there can
be no assurance that he is awake and on
duty every hour Of the night. We re-
spectfully suggest that this officer be. at
once. furnished with an approved watch
mans clock, which will show every min
ute Of every hour of the night, whether he
was awake and on duty. and thus give a
guarantee to the taxpayers that they are
getting the service for which they are pay
ing. Furthermore, reduction in the in
surance rate and cost. will be allowed il
an approved watchman's clock is used BY
the watchman.
/ The new Indices System now being
made in the County Offices. is helping TO
swell the cost of their operation to the
extent Of about Five Thousand Dollars per
year.
! In previous reports we have been rec
ommending that the State take over all
County Roads. and we again urge this
course. The Comptroller's records show
that Road Equipment cost last year Sl0.-
SS4.S7. Road Supervisors were paid S9,-
329.10. The County Engineers Office cost
the County about 100000. In addition
TO these items. there was expended for
roads. in the ten Districts of this County
S9O,0S2.77, or a grand total of S120,296.74.
+ We think the State could handle this work
at much less cost.
+ In our comments in last years Report,
We referred to the change in officials re-
sulting from the exigencies of politics. We
are pleased to note that the office of
Comptroller has not, in our judgment. suf-
/ fered in the least. in this regard.
/ We want to compliment Mr.. Paradee
upon the splendid manner in which he has
kept his records. They are all very sys-
tematically arranged. and very easy to ac-
curately audit.

j Dispatch to The Star,

Special Dispatch to The Star,
NEW YORK, December 10.-Thomas
B. Macaulay, president of the Sun Life
Assurance Co. of Canada, has summed
up the case which he has been present.
ing for relief from the present depressed
commodity price situation. In this he
repeats his earlier suggestion that the
Federal Reserve Board purchase $780,
100000 of Government bonds as the
simplest remedy to effect the transition
from falling prices of commodities to
stabilized commodity market.
His argument is placed under several
heads, the first of which deals with gold
as the basis of the financial structure of
all of the great industrial nations. 1t is
the only medium of exchange that can
be used for the payment of international
balances. Because of this there has
been an enormous transfer of the none
tary gold of the world to the United
States in the process of the payment by
ether countries of debts contracted dur
ing and since the war. The United
States tariff has increased the difficulty
of foreign nations in paying their obl-
cations in goods. The net result is that
debtor countries are, with difficulty,
maintaining their currencies at par. This
fact, coupled with their tax burdens,
reduce their ability to purchase goods
both in the United States and among
themselves, thus holding back the trade
recovery of the entire world
Purchasing Power.
The second line of argument taken
up by Mr.. MacaUlay deals with the
purchasing power of currencies. Before
the war" he said, "the purchasing pow
er OF these currencies had substantial
measure OF stability because the flag
ship, the pound sterling, was anchored
to the quantity of gold in the world"
Great Britain, however, had to aban-
don her old policy and has now a legal
tender paper currency. Therefore, says
Mr.. Macaulay, "the control of the en-
tire flotilla has passed to the United
States, for that country owns such a
large proportion of all gold that no
other country can play an independent
role. The flagship is now the American
dollar, and to it the values of all other
currencieS are tied"
He then points out that the value
Of the American dollar depends solely
on the amount Of legal-tender notes
and credits outstanding. 1t does not
United States or in the world The
amount of legal-tender notes and cred
its outstanding at any time is deter
mined by the directors of the Federal
Reserve Banks. They have the power
of deciding what the purchasing power
of the dollar may be. Mr.. Macaulay
shows that in 1921 the purchasing
power of the dollar within a few weeks
dropped to go per cent Of its previous
level, but stabilization was effected then

FILM ACTOR HELD
IN UNIQUE THEFTS
Charged With Raids on Los
Angeles, Hollywood and
Beverly Hills Homes.
BY the Associated Press.

LOS ANGELES, December 1o-Hazen
Roxen Sanders, 80, described by police
as alternately film actor, importer and
master burglar, was charged today with
having stolen hundreds of thousands of
dollars worth of furnishings from Los
Angeles, Hollywood and Beverly Hills
homes.
Police, in recovering more than $780,
600 in loot plundered during two years
of operations, connected Sanders, alias
Al White, with the burglaries through
teItale finger prints on window ledgeS
Of imposing residences.
With Sanders in jail was an alleged
accomplice, Peter Ryan, alias Paul
Hackley, 38. also charged with burglary
Sanders and his aide, whose methods
of operation were described by police
as unique as they were startling, were
said to have looted scores of homes,
hauling away to a cache valuable rugs,
radios, silverware and jewelry.
In the role of importer, police said
Sanders sold Oriental rugs to many per-
sons of prominence, including motion
picture stars, after stealing them in
daring daylight coups. The suspected
actor-burglar and his accomplice also
are said to have played the role of elec-
trio refrigerator service men and milk
noitering before robberies.
Police said they found a chamois bag
containing $4,000 in loose diamonds
strapped to Sanders knee. A pistol was
found in his pocket, they said.
