GOVERNOR HOLDS
VOTERS MANDATE
rContinned from First Panel

didates for State Offices, was given
by voters without regard to party
affiliations. 1t can be interpreted
only as non-partisan approval of his
conduct of the States business and
an expression of confidence in his
known plans for the future. That
being so, it follows that the mem
bers Of the Legislature, chosen
within their party lines by the same
voters, will give hearty support to
the plans which the Governor has
been delegated to put into effect.
Both Of the major party plat
forms made strong appeals for eco
nomy. in public business and pledg-
ed their nominees to see that waste
and extravaganza. shall be eliminat-
ed to the end that taxes may be re-
duced and that the peoples business
shall be conducted in a business
like manner.
"All Of the State lawmakers
made their appeals for votes and
were elected on the pledges to car
ry out such plans. The election of
these men was an expression of
faith on their pledges.
But the State election, particu-
larly that of the Governor. is of
even deeper significance. 1t is
mandate given iii no uncertain
terms, that partisanship must not be
allowed to interfere with public
business and that selfish factional
interference will not be tolerated.
1.-The officers of the Better Gov
ernment League of Delaware are
glad of an opportunity to congratu-
late the members on having had
share in bringing about this happy
state of affairs.
1.-The Leagues endorsement of
State candidates had the approval
of a majority of the voters in every
instance save one-that in which
there was a three-corner contest
for Representative in Congress.
"Most of the nominees for the
Legislature endorsed by the League
were the successful candidates at
the polls. Those who were not chos-
en- by the voters had, as their sue
cessful opponents, men of ability
and political integrity, pledged to
the principles of better government.
"The conduct of public business in
New Castle county has been placed
in the hands of a group of high type
citizens whose candidacy for their
respective officers had been endors-
ed by the League.
1.-THE League has every right to
feel proud of this statewide approx
al of its aims and objects. 1t should
feel also that it, too. has a mandate
from the voters at large to continue
in it's efforts to insure clean busi-
ness administration of public af-
fairs.
"The men already elected to Office
must be supported in their efforts
for the public good; and men equal
ly capable must be chosen at future
elections to continue the affairs of
town and city administrations in a
thoroughly business-like way.
'"The Better Government League
is ready TO do its share to maintain
the hign standards set within the
States boundaries at the recent

TVTOULDN'T it be a good plan
w il someone wrote a poem to
" Thanksgiving? For year
after year, ever since the times Of
our sturdy Pilgrim Fathers, an
autumn day has been set aside
in this country for rest and
Thanksgiving for all our bless
ings. So important is this sub
ject of giving thanks that it is
the very first thing we teach to
little children.
And yet this wonderful institu-
tion of Thanksgiving has never
inspired one Of our more impor-
tant poets to write exclusively on
this subject so far, at least, as
the writer Of this article and the
editors of Bartlett's Familiar
Quotations know. If anyone
knows of such a poem, it would
be a good plan to send it in to
the editor of this paper.
In all seriousness, this unique
American festival would furnish
splendid theme for a splendid

the Democratic platform on prohibition
and you know what the Democratic
platform stands for"
Discussing the Republican campaign,

"All Republican candidates in the
South are running on a platform di-
rectly opposed to their party's national

not think James A. Farley, chairman

ing the probable majority for Gov.
Roosevelt at 100000 votes.
THE character Of the Republican
campaign in the last "a or 48 hours

Government envelopes from that office.
Dismissal of Weiss followed receipt
of information by the Governor that

The corporation is considering seed
loans. With one of the largest corn
crops in history, the question has been
raised whether they would be advisable,
in view Of the prospect Of creating
larger surpluses.
The corporation also has invited the
American Municipal Association to help
it provide better understanding be-
tween the corporation and cities and
towns on local f-iquidating projects.
The corporation feels. Harvey c.
Couch, a director, said, that with the
aid of the Municipal League it will be
possible to stimulate eligible applica-
tions for self-liquidating loans.
Couch said the State Municipal
Leagues could act as clearing houses
for information, since many Of the ap-
plications were for projects on which
loans could not be made. He added
that the corporation had received re-
ports that others which might be eligi-
BILE had not applied because their spon-
sors felt they were too small or too
much data would be required.
