MIR. HOOVER'S CRYPTIC PHRASE

Whatever criticism might be hurled at President Hoover respecting lis historical statement that pros peliy is just around tic c0Iner the fact tat not only his statement tue but had the tghtwads followed his advice the depression would have dissolved at the mo- ment ke said it would
 What the President actually meant, but dared not wrath of the drys, Just around the corner side door Give three raps the door and you will be admitted Smile at the bartender and tell him to decorate the mahogany with any of his best brands and not to allow the glasses become empty At about three clock eek emma you'll feel like millionaire, wander home, throw the bankrol onto the dresser and tell friend wife 70 % out and blew the vorks!'
 In other words what the country needs IS one big Jag
 The jag should be of those dimensions when the Jagee places his about his agors shoulders sheds few tears and eternal friendship pulls out his wad and says "S right, Charlie; splenty more; Jes one mo III drink an we'll go out an buy tn wifies somn pretty; Shay gotcha Des' Til girl world; nushin too good fr (hickD spardon Til wife; kinda wife to have l tell ga wife evervZing
 Charlie might respond: "Sll righ but whut ell good does zat to me; an't got no wife"
 Bill $ danshame; yorter have nize lil wife, doll her up Ata boy whoopee! whynt you lead IT out I'm zhe shoulder, ash her. Cm on; les go righ n ash her. al'ays shed you sport"
 Multiply this by several million jags and even the men protected by the statute of limitations would be out paying bills and shooting the bankro for fear other ags would shun him a tightwad.
 Somebody ought to apolog ize to MT. Hoover He had the right hunch, but no packers.

DEEP SEA STATUS

Baltimore Interests Back
Route Plan; Hearing Set
For November 10Th
BENEFIT TO SHIPPERS

Efforts to get improvements in
the Chesapeake and Delaware Can
al which will open it to vessels in
the long-voyage deep-sea trade, an
ambition of Baltimore port inter
ests for more than a century, will
be concentrated at Baltimore this
month when a public hearing will
be held by United States Army en-
gineers. The hearing at p. m.
November 16, viii bring to con-
clusion a program of investigation
inaugurated last January when
Congress passed a bill authorizing
a study of plans for the future de-
velopment of the waterway. Repre-
sentatives of New York, Philadel-
phia, Trenton, IN. J.,) Camden IN.
J.,) Wilmington, Newark, On. J.,l
Norfolk, Newport News and Balti-
more port interests will attend the
hearing, which will be held before
Col. Earl T. Brown, United States
district engineer in charge of the
waterway, and Capt. Harry o.
Tunis, engineering officer, who has
completed a survey of the canal un-
der Congressional authority. The
public hearing will be the only one
to be held prior to submission of
the final report to Congress. I'M
prcvement to the canal is being
/ considered from two angles, the
first that of making passage thru
the waterway safe and speedy un-
der present conditions and the sec
ond that of making it a full-depth
waterway for deep-draft ships in
the long-voyage trade. G. H.Poud-
er, director of the export and i'm
port bureau Of the Baltimore Asso-
citation of Commerce, who attended
a conference Wednesday in Will
mington, Del, with Colonel Brown
said that the improvement would
prove of untold value to that
port Where the canal to be made
available to ocean-going sevvels, "
he said, ''it would mean the cutting
of a full days sailing time from
/ Baltimore to European ports and
would save other shippers as much
as two days sailing time in the
/ cases where vessels must first come
to Baltimore to discharge cargo
and then in making up full cargo
from a number of ports is forced to
return to Baltimore for smaller lots
of freight. For one hundred years
persons interested in the develop
nent Of this port have been seeking
to enlarge the facilities of the
canal and at the hearing in Novem-
Der the Association of Commerce
will submit its survey and recon-
mendations concerning the i'm
rrovement OF the Delaware-to-the-
Chesapeake waterway" The sur
vey mentioned by Mr.. Pouder was
submitted to Colonel Brown in ten
tat've form. A number of addi-
tional suggestions and studies are
TO be made. including recommenda-
tions regarding the Improvement
Of channels in the upper bay which
void have to be made to accom-
modate the additional traffic which
would follow an increase in capac-
ity of the canal The completed
survey will be submitted at the
public hearing.

from a fresh fire built at the home
on the farm of H. w. Savage, three
miles west of Dover, destroyed the
building, large two-and-one-half

noon. Savage, who was the only
occupant Of the home at the time,
his son and his wife being in Phil
adelphia, ran from the building, all
though crippled with rheumatism,
to the home of neighbor to give
the alarm. The Robbins Hose Com

unable to save the building or con-
tents, except a few pieces of furn-
iture on the first floor.

SERIES ROBBERIES
DOWN THE STATE
Safe Stolen By Thieves Who
Looted DOwn-State p. o.,
Found Minus Contents
GET AUTO AND TRUCK

Police are investigating a series
of robberies which occurred in Mil
ford and vicinity Thursday night,
the supposed work of the same
men or gang. The Houston post
office, near Milford, and the Simp-
son Feed Company, on Washington
Street, were broken into, a safe
was carried away, an automobile
and truck stolen, and a store was
ransacked. The safe was taken
from the post office, which is locat-
ed in the store of John w. Whar-
ton. The store was looted of mer-
chandise and several blankets. Mrs.
Wharton is the postmistress. En-
trance to the place was gained by
jimmying the front door. The men
are believed to have carried the
safe out Of the building, tied it onto
the bumper of a machine and then
to have driven off. The safe was
found near the farm of William
Collision, about two miles away, on
dirt road, early Friday. The top
of the safe had been battered in, ev-
identity with an ak, and practically
all of the contents had been taken
out. The safe contained between
$500 and $400 in cash and checks
and about 5000 worth of stamps.
Everything was taken with the ex-
ception of few dollars in change.
Safe Tied to Bumper
When found. the safe was tied to
a bumper, said to have been part
of a Buick car. 1t is believed that
the safe had been too heavy, caus-
ing the bumper to break off. Col
lison declared he saw the men early
Friday at the spot where the safe
was found but paid no attention to
them as he believed they were re-
pairing an automobile. The safe
was discovered by George Downes,
who was driving along the road
He traced tracks showing it had
been dragged along the road from
the post Office. The men were seen
by Collision at daybreak. The
Simpson Feed Store was entered in
the same manner as was the post
Office, the front door being jimmied
open. They broke open cash reg
lister but found no money, and then
made an unsuccessful attempt to
take away the safe. It had not
been opened.
Truck Parked Outside
After leaving the store the men
drove away in a truck which had
been parked outside the building.
1t is believed that they then went
to the post Office and took the safe
away in the stolen truck. They
also took an automobile owned by
/ c. d. Holzmuller, which was park
ed in front of his office in the Com
munity Building, headquarters of
the Carlisle Fire Company Mr..
Holzmuller had just had the tank
filled with gasoline, and had stop
ped off at his office for a few min
utes. When he returned to the
street the car was gone. While
police have no clues, the manner in
which the robberies were commit
ted indicates that they were the
work of the same persons. It is
believed that there were number
of men working together on the
robberies.

Something Less Monumental, In

in Financial Difficulty.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
PARASITIC financial troubles of the
Paris Opera have led to the suggestion.
put forward by a Partisan critic, that
the famous monumental opera house
should be abandoned as too garish for
these times and that operatic perform
ances should be given in another the
ater more in keeping with modern con-
ditionS.
The argument is that the present
building was designed for times when
Paris boasted an imperial court and
a high society that no longer ex-
lists. In those days-the middle of the
past century-the vast marble staircase
and the elaborate rococo decorations
were just the proper background for
brilliant diplomatic uniforms, jewels
and luxurious evening gowns Nova
days, the critic says, people in simpler
dress feel foolish amid such splendor Of
decorations and prefer to go to modern
theaters, where the surroundings are In
harmony with their clothes.
The suggestion Is made that the old
opera house should be kept for public
