LEGISLATION FOR SILVER

The silver problem steadily
grows in Importance. Increasing
interest is being shown in it by
the general public.
J. S. Culinan. president Of the
Fidelity Trust Company of
Houston, Texas, recently said,
Il attach great Importance to
the Legislation for restoration of
silver at this session of Congress.
The effect of this. in my judg
ment, would be Immediate in re
lieving pressure on the banks.
and in turn on debtors by the
banks, in increased employment
and buying power. and definite
start upward"
International trade has faded
away to below the pre- war level.
and the monetary standards of
many important countries are in
a state of confusion. largely be
cause of depressed prices for
silver. The worlds gold supply
has proven inadequate to keep
the complicated economic mach
inc in motion. Any plan to at.
tain international stability must
include as one of its important
planks a program for restoring q
fair ratio of value between gold
and silver. Private and public
groups are working on such pro
grams now. and the support they
are given will largely determine
how quickly we shake off the eff
fects of depression.

KEEP TO THE LEFTI

Custom has ordained that the
pedestrian on the rural highway,
like the vehicles, shall Keep to
the Right" That is proper for
the vehicle. but for the pedes
trian the right side is the wrong
side. according to Maxwell N.
Halsey, Traffic Engineer of the
National Bureau of Casualty and
Surety Underwriters.
Two thousand persons are kill
ed annually in the United States
and many thousands injured be
cause they cling to the ancient
custom. They are struck at
curves, over the crest of bills
and in narrow passes by auto
mobiles coming from behind.
Dusk, before the headlight is
turned on, is very dangerous,
but later in the night, when the
silhouette of the pedestrian
blends into the background even
under the strongest headlights,
is the most dangerous time Of all.
Until the states provide side
walks for the country road, the
The border vidette., 1932-02-27

pedestrian should always keep
on the left side, "Mr. Halsey de
clares;" then at least he can see
the cars coming and move to
safety if the occasion demands it,.
1t may feel awkward at first, but
it will pay.
There are signs of an awak
ening in this matter. North Ca
rolina, West Virginia. Kansas,
Delaware, Massachusetts, New
York, New Jersey have laws
which authorize the proper
authorities to build side walks
along the highways. Iu other
states, county authorities have
been authorized to undertake
similar construction"
Remember, when walking on a
country road, that the left sid da
is the right side.

SEEK ROOSEVELT DELEGATES

Casa Grande, Ariz. The cam.
paign to secure Roosevelt dele.
CATION from Arizona to the Dem
ocratic national convention in
Chicago June 81. has been put
under the management of A. T.
Gilcrease, veteran of many po
litical battles in the state, is was
revealed here today. Kilcrease's
acceptance of the responsibility
is in compliance with the request
of the leaders of the party of the
state, be said.
Although the work in Arizona
is being launched in cooperation
with and under the authorization
of the association of Roosevelt
Southern Clubs. with headquart.
ers in Atlanta. Ca. it is not .
part of his plan to form Roose
velt Clubs in Arizona. Gilcrease
said. This step would be futile
effort because of the fact that no
presidential primary is held in
this state, but the delegation to
the national convention is elect
ed by the state Democratic Gen.
trail Committee at the state
convention to meet in late March
or early April. The primary
presidential campaign in Arizona
consists of an effort to secure
enough votes in this body, which
was elected in the last Demo
cratic primary election in the
state, to name a delegation ia
vorabie to Roosevelt.
In speaking of the possibility
of Roosevelt's success in both
the state and national conven
tions the state manager predict
ed sweeping victory:
II have found that there is an
overwhelming sentiment in favor
of Roosevelt not only among the
leaders in Arizona, but among
the rank and file both in Arizona
and other Democratic States" he
said. State leaders are out
spoken in his favor, and I do not
believe opposition to the New
York governor will appear at
all in the state convention"
Il believe Roosevelt will also
carry every state holding Dem
ocratic primary, and that be will
be nominated on the first ballot
at the Chicago convention.
Roosevelt is the man of the
hour-the man the people want
and | believe the Democratic
leaders of the state and nation
realizs that his nomination
means certain victory in the
presidential election.
Senator Kilcrease, the Arizona
Roosevelt manager, has been
constantly active in state politics
for Is years, and ia 1925 retired
from Office that be might devote
his energies to party rather than
personal politics. He is one of
most throughly informed in
party activities of any man in
the state.

OFF IN MARSH
Hurls Hundreds OF Tons of
Black Mud About 500
Feet Into the Air
SHOCK FELT AT MILFORD

Hurting hundreds of tons Of
black mud as high as 500 feet in
the air, 62OO pounds of dynamite
were set off last Wednesday at
Barker's Landing, near Magnolia
on the st. Jones Greek. The blast
was set off to clear the mud from
the marsh to reach a firm founda-
tion for the causeWay being laid
across the marsh from St. Jones
Neck or Bay road to the main
State highway beyond Magnolia.
The dynamiting was supervised by
Larry Livingstone, of the dupont
Company, Wilmington, who is an
expert in such matters. The blast
was acclaimed by experienced ex-
plosiVes men to be one of the most
perfect they had ever seen. When
the blast was touched off by Milton
B. Steinmetz, an employee of the
State Highway Department, there
was muff1ed report, and but little
vibration of the earth. Because Of
the muff1ed report, the mud and
water seemed to rise skyward Of
its own accord. Hundreds of tons
of dirt will be dumped in to the
dynamited area to complete the
causeway being constructed to con
meet with the dual highway, which
is about to enter Kent county from
the New Castle county line Sew
eral hundred feet of the causeway
have already been filled in Be
cause of settling across the marsh,
however the Highway Department
thought it advisable to dynamite
the mud for the remaining distance
so more rapid progress could be
made Officials of the Highway
Department who witnessed the dy-
namiting were Chief Engineer w
w. Mack, Allen Craig, secretary of
the State Highway Commission
and William A. MacWilliams, resi-
dent engineer The force of the
explosion was felt at Milford.

SEE FIRE BUG IN
MILFORD FIRES
Think "Fire Bug" May Be At
Work Because of Two
Recent BlaZes
VICTIMS ARE IMPROVING

There is some suspicion that
there may be a fire bug" working
in the vicinity of Milford. Recent
ly two large newly completed
buildings have been burned near
Milford, and in each instance, the
fire has been of suspicious origin.
The large dairy barn of Douglas
Fry, near Milford, was burned to
the ground early Saturday morning
and as far as known no one had
been in the building since early
Friday evening. 1t has been sug-
guested that spontaneous combus-
ton might have caused the fire
which entailed great loss to the
owner. On Tuesday large four
roller mill owned by Thomas Best
and just completed was destroyed
by fire. Mr.. Best left the mill
about seven o'clock that evening.
He made thorough inspection of
the building before leaving. He
even swept up the shavings and
rubbish. AS the mill was about
ready to operate he even thought
of fire before closing, and person
ally took a look over the entire
structure to see if there was any
thing that might cause a fire. The
fire was discovered at 10 o'clock
that evening. The mill had been
completed at a cost of $4,000 on
which there was only $4,000 in
surance.

Salvagers in Quest of S40,-
100000 Pirate Gold Off
Cape HenlOpen
FORTUNE IN BOAT HULL

Declaring they had dragged
across the hulls of at least four
sunken vessels off the Delaware
capes, with their lowered cables
and graphing irons, two New
York and Baltimore treasure seek
ers who have spent several days
at Lewes doing preliminary work
for their big salvaging project,
have returned to New York, en-
thusiastic in their discovery. The
men, A.C. Robertson, of New York
and ]. H. Steel, of Baltimore, are
desirous of raising the lost English
brig, DeBraake, which sank with
S40,000,000 of pirate gold off Cape
Henlopen in 1898. It is known
that other vessels have gone down
in this spot, and there are the ones
probably felt by the salvagers
when trying to locate the gold-lad-
en- ship. The other ships are be-
lieved to be fishing craft wrecked
from time to time around the
capes. The men reported to the
hotel where they are stopping that
they expect to return this week
with additional facilities to con
tinue their work.

Brake, which sank off the Della
ware capes in 1898 with cargo val
ued at $4O,O0O,000, the Union Ship
building Company's tug Columbine
left Baltimore Thursday with
party of engineers aboard. Mys-
terry surrounded the destination Of
ship, but it was learned that the
Columbine had been chartered for
an indefnate period of not less
than five days and was going to
hunt for "the wreck of a vessel
off the Delaware coast. The Co
lumbine is commanded by Capt.
Paul Cullison. John Mitchell, mar
inc surveyor of Baltimore, whose
name was linked with the Column
bine's charter, declined to discuss
the expeditions plans. Dispatches
from Lewes, Sunday, said repre-
sentatives of a salvaging party,
thought to be from Baltimore, ar
rived at Lewes taking with them
maps indicating the spot where the
DeBraake was supposed to have
gone down. The party also was
to have had possession of
documents obtained from England
recording the ships history and
the worth of her cargo, pirated
from two Spanish galleons, one of
which sank the brig. Last week
the party made a number of trips.
The DeBraake is believed to be
resting approximately eighty feet
below the surface Of the water. A.
c. Robertson, of New York, report
ed to be head of the treasure hunt,
expressed the belief that the brig,
which was built of lakewood, still
was intact and could be raised.
