GOVERNOR WILL
ADMINISTER ALL
EMERGENCY sums
Budget Directors An
nOunce New Ruling At
Meeting In Dover.
NEW POLICY MADE
Sharp Reductions Made
In Amounts OF Many
State Departments.

Emergency funds" long a sub
ject of contention in State admins
trative departments, will henceforth
be eliminated, it was announced on
Tuesday as the Budget Directors.
holding their first public hearing,
settled down to the work of effect
ing a general 10 per cent reduction
in appropriations.
Money that previously went to the
administrative branches for emer-
gencies will henceforth be handled
directly by the Governor, the Bud
get Directors announced. All calls
for extra funds will be referred to
him and will be decided by him. This
policy marks a new departure in
public finances in Delaware.
1t was estimated by Charles Fl.
Grantland, Secretary of State, and
one of the three budget directors,
that this method will result in a
saving of at least $4,000 in the to-
tai appropriations for the depart
ments. While it will probably be
necessary to provide fund for the
Governor to draw upon for emer-
gencies, in addition to. the regular
governors emergency fund, it is be-
lieved the new system will result in
considerable savings to the State, by
reason of greater efficiency and the
fact that dubious emergencies y
will be eliminated.
1t is not yet known whether the
emergency calls will be taken care
of by the Governors regular emer-
gency fund, or whether a separate
fund will be placed at the Cover
nor's disposal
Two of the largest departments,
the Board of Agriculture and the
Board of Health, presented their re-
quests for appropriations on Tues
day and IN both cases sharp reduc-
tions were ordered
Throughout the debates over fig
ures for various departments only
two increases were allowed and
these were fixed at a minimum. The
tentative appropriation for the Gus
todian of Buildings was increased
by $4,000 to care for the new State
House.
A Sl5,OO0 allowance was made Lne
State Board of Health for improve
ment of facilities at the Brandywine
and Edgewood tuberculosis sanator-
iums. This action was taken in view
of the fact that there has been a
sharp rise in tuberculosis in the
State recently, and that the present
facilities are generally pronounced
to be inadequate.
The increase allowed the State
Board of Health, however, was just
half of the sum requested by that
body, which estimated an increase
of between 100000 and $4,000 would
be required.
Reductions of approximately 10
per cent were ordered in these de-
partments: State Auditor, State
the Insurance Commits
sion and the State Library.
In addition to Mr.. Grantland, the
budget directors are Harry B. Van
Solver and Lieutenant Governor J.
Henry Hazel. They have announced
q determination to keen the budget
within a S2.O00O00 total. /

BARBECUE LUNCH IN
KENT CAMPAIGN

A barbecue luncheon is to be Civ
en- at Mapledale, Saturday, October
Sth, by Senator Daniel o.. Hastings
to meet the national, State and cOun-.
ty Republican candidates. Five or six
hundred guests will be invited.
The revival of this old time ad-
junct to a political campaign is eX-
-pected to arouse much interest in
Kent county. There was a time many
years ago when the "speakin' at the
barbecue" was one of the chief in
cidents of every campaign in each
county but in recent years the Gus
tom has fallen into disuse. While
the political aspect of barbecue is
the strong feature it is always of i'm
portance in providing a means of
seeing old friends and making new
ones.
