TOWN ELECTION ON MONDAY
Six Nominations Made For Council
Two for Alderman and Collector
Lively Contest is Anticipated

All is set for the Annual Town
Election to be held at the Town
Hall next Monday afternoon from
2 to 5. At the meeting of Town
Council six nominations were filed
for members of Council, out of
succeed Edward T. Porter, V. Lay
Phillips and George Reynolds Stew
enson. Mr.. Phillips withdrew from
the contest and his name was not
filed. Messrs. Porter and Steven
son are candidates to succeed
themselves. Other candidates for
Council filed are George w. Turn
er, S. Creadick Ennis and Matthew
V. Ford. There promises to be a
lively contest growing out of the
recent Referendum Election at
which the offer of 100000 for
Smyrna Light Plant and distribu-
tion system made by the Eastern
Shore Public Service Company was
turned down. The victors are
largely back of the Stevenson
ticket, composed of G. R. Steven
son, S. Creadick Ennis and George
w. Turner and the losers are be-
hind the ticket headed by Edward
T. Porter, M. V. Ford and George
w. Turner. The latter is on both
tickets. Henry D. Boyer, the pres
ent incumbent and Robert H. Den
ney are in the race for Alderman
and collector 1t will be remem-
bered that a year ago when Mr..
Denney, then the Alderman and
Collector, was running for re-elec-
ton, Mr.. Boyer came back from a
trip South and entered the race
and defeated Mr.. Denney. Now
the contest will be on again this
year, with Mr.. Denney trying to
get the coveted position back.
/ There promises to be lively con-
test between these two. Walter
w. Hynson is the nominee for
Town Treasurer and William j.
Holland the nominee for Town
Assessor. Both are unopposed and
their nomination is equivalent to
election.

CHEST[RTOWN HAS RIVAL IN
CENTREV|LLE FOR SHORE LINK
FORMER ADVOCATES BRIDGE
LATTER FAVORS TUNNEL
CentreyiIle Record Learns That
Tunnel and Causeway Could Be
. Built for Sum of S14,750,000

Centreville, Md, seems to be a
competitor of Chestertown, Md,
for the Chesapeake Bay route be-
tween the Eastern Shore of Mary
land and the city of Baltimore.
Chestertown has been fighting for
months for a bridge from the vi
cinity of COLCHESTER to Miller's ISL
and Centreville seems to be in
terested in tunnel under the river
between Kent Island and Sandy
Point (Annapolis), as the best and
most central Eastern Shore route
to Baltimore. In the meantime
the Maryland Legislature is doing
little to back the bridge project
and rumors are that the whole
bridge plans may be thrown out.
The Centreville Record says:
Kent Island-Sandy Point route
gets great boost in report of Ches-
apeake Bay Bridge Commission
recently submitted to Governor
Ritchie, as the most practical cen
tral point for construction of bridge
or tunnel across bay. The report
states, 'if the needs of the State,
as a whole, be considered, the de-
STABILITY of connecting link
placed at a more central point be-
tween the Eastern and Western
shores of Maryland, then the Mill
ers Island bridge be-
comes apparent. A careful sur
vey of the Bay shows only one
central point that is at all practi-
cal. Between Sandy Point on the
Western and Kent Island near the
Eastern Shore, there lies a route
which is the shortest of any route
south of the extreme upper part
of the Bay. A crossing at this
point would bring about great saw
ings in travel between large por-
tions of the eastern and western
shores" The report further states
that while a thorough engineering
survey would be needed to estimate
the cost, they have letter from
H. Kent McCay, former City En-
gineer and Harbor Engineer OF
Baltimore, stating that he and as
sociates would guarantee the COM
pletion of a tunnel and causeWay
for S14,750,000, which includes all
necessary operating machinery ano
equipment.

BILL FOR SELLING ICE CREAM
BY WEIGHT KILLED IN SENATE
NO CHANCE OF SUCH LEGIS-
LATION GETTING THROUGH
Manufacturers Opposed Measure
and Said 1t Would Harm Indus
trY-HOuse Had Passed Bill

The State Senate yesterday af-
ternoon unanimously defeated Rep
resentative Virden's bill for the
sale of ice cream by weight and
requiring one quart of ice cream to
weigh pound and three-quarters
and one gallon to weigh seven
pounds. Senator Griffenberg &C.
scribed the measure as 'unWiSe
Legislation" The measure was
opposed by Philadelphia, Whining
ton and other dealers thruout state
Members of the miscellaneous
committee of the Senate Monday
afternoon heard a number of ice
cream manufacturers in opposition
to the bill passed by the House re-
quiring ice cream to have weight
per gallon of seven pounds. Fred
Russmusser, secretary of the Ma
tional Ice Cream Association, spoke
in opposition to the bill. No one
would eat ice cream weighing sew
en- pounds per gallon because it
would not be palatable. He de-
clared it would be impossible to
make ice cream of the weight inc.-
Gated. James Buckley, of the
Supplee-Jones-Wills Company, also
spoke briefly. The company in
1880 spent more than S1,10O,o00 in
Delaware for milk. Professor
Dohls, of Pennsylvania State Col
lege, declared it was impossible 10
control the weight of ice cream.
/ During the discussion it was
brought out that in some places
milk dealers were purchasing milk
and then dumping the SKINNED
milk into the river because there
was no market for it. Senator
Griffenberg, who is an ice cream
/ dealer and manufacturer, also
spoke against the bill which has
already been passed by the House.
