AROLITT0N OF SLUMS

Secretary of the Interior Ickes is
considering plans to spend several
hundred million dollars on the con-
struction of low cost houses. All
large cities and many small ones
have neighborhoods of run down
and unsanitary homes, into which
people crowd because rents are low.
The provision of better homes for
such people is more important than
costly boulevards for automobiles
to roll over at high speed. When
you take family out Of an unsani-
tary tenement, and put them in a
clean little modern home or apart
ment, you open up a door of oppor-
tunity. If they have capacity to
make good, this new scene gives
them incentives.

RUSH PERIODS IN FACTORIES

One of the problems which the
NRA has to face, is as to how hours
of work shall be regulated in in
dustries that are forced to run ir-
regularly, owing to the seasonal
character of their trade.
Take the code of fair competition
for the shoe manufacturing indus
try, as one instance. This code al
lows operation on a 40 hour week
schedule, but in emergency periods
As hours a week are permitted. In
this industry and many others which
are forced by trade conditions to
run by fits and starts, it would be
beneficial to have such a code as
the above applied, if it could be
strictly enforced.
Many such industries are gov
erned by changing styles and fash
ions. The dealers do not dare order
until the styles for a season are set
and when they do order they want
the goods delivered in a hurry. The
The shops usually run very slack
for a good part of the year, after
which they are severely driven, and
may have to work nights. Such a
system is hard on the workers, and
it makes operation more costly.
But can the proposed codes be
enforced without too much cost?
Some manufacturers may think they
could violate such a code without
their action being discovered. If
so, the violator would get the trade,
while the one who obeyed the rule
would be penalized, most unsatis-
factory outcome.
We shall have to wait and see how
things work. The American people
don't like the idea of too much gov
ernment control of business. But
it is essentially unreasonable and
expensive for factories to be forced
to lie idle for months, and then
have to work nights to fill rush
orders. If any way can be found to
regulate such condition better,
and produce regular flow of orders
that shall make regular work for
everybody, it would be great gain.

Oysters Condemned
(Communicared)

Milton, Del, October IA, 1888
Editor Milford Chronicle
Milford, Delaware.
My Dear Sir:-0nly a few years
ago the oysters in the Broadkill
Greek were plentiful and palatable;
there was a living for several of the
citizens longing them.
It seems that the State Board Of
Health has condemned them because
the sewerage from Lewes flows into
Broadkill Creek about one mile
from the oyster roeks-this would
appear that the sewerage never
comes in contact with the oysters
at all, but flows on out into the bay.
The writer is advised that per-
son can take three bushels each
week for their personal or family
use, and we are wondering just why
the State Board of Health will al
low man to catch them for their
families if they are unfit for human
consumption. In other words if the
oysters are good for one family to
eat why are they not just as good
for oystermen to catch them and
sell them to other people. 1t seems
in the face of the depression, and
with so much unemployment, that
the State Board of Health would
come to realize the situation and
open up the way for fifteen or twen-
ty of our citizens to make an hon
est living without depending on
State aid,
If there is any way that you,
through your valuable paper can
render some help along this line, it
certainly would be appreciated.
Yours respectfully,
CHAS. B. PORTER

"A HUNTING WE WILL cor

The favorite old song "a Hunt
ing We Will Go" is heard about now.
A million or two men and boys are
cleaning up the old shooting iron,
and preparing to get out in the
fields and woodlands for date with
the wild creatures. A considerable
supply of game is reported in many
localities, thus contradicting the
idea that all this wild life is being
exterminated by excessive hunting,
Yet the man behind the gun needs
to have a care. The number of
hunting accidents each year is de-
plorable. 1t is a pitiful thing for
family, when the hunter who went
out so cheerfully for his autumnal
sport returns severely wounded, or
perhaps his life was terminated by
some careless sportsman. 1t is a
poor trade to go out for a fox or
deer, and lose your life.
A good many hunters become so
excited when. they see what they
think is game, that they lose eau
tion and judgment. If they see a
movement in the bushes, many of
them blaze away. Then when the
object indistinctly seen proves to
be another hunter, they have DEM
onstrated their unfitness to have
control of firearms. They should
stay at home and play croquet or
some other sport where they can't
hurt anybody.
Farmers complain in many loca-
tions about the danger to which
their families and their animals are
exposed while the hunters are blaz-
ing away near by. Never fire gun
unless you know what you are
shooting at, and where your shot
is going.
While game may be fairly abun-
dant, many excellent animals and
birds have been practically exter-
A hunter who can not or
will not strictly obey the game laws
had better stay at home. When
he does something illegal, he COM
mits an injury against the whole
people, and he deserves to pay a
good stiff fine for it.

Corley presiding. Senator McIntire
was made temporary secretary. SEN
ator Griffenberg's resolution to dis
pense with all attaches employed at
the regular session last winter and
appoint new attaches, but cutting the
number in half, was adopted by a
vote to 10 to 4. Lieutenant Governor
Corley turned the gavel over to Sem
ator Simonton and then the new at
taches were sworn in and took their
respective Offices.
After the Joint session of the Sem
ate and House to hear the message
of Governor Buck, the Senate adopt

the House to be selected by the
Speaker, to represent the State at

ference called by the American Leg
islator's Association at Harrisburg,
Pa, Friday and Saturday of this
week. The resolution would appro-
pirate $25 to each member of the
committee for expenses incident to
making the trip to Harrisburg.
Senator Griffenberg explained the
Importance of this conference, point
ing out that the problem of uniform
regulations for busses and trucks is
one of especial interest to the State
due to It's geographical situation, as
related to most of the II states to be
represented.
Senator Latchum called the atten-

The vote was then taken, with the
resolution adopted on party vote,
8 yeas to nays.
The Senate adopted the rules that
were in force at the regular session
last winter and President Pro Tenn
Simonton announced the committee
appointments would remain the

Just before adjournment, Repre-

again yesterday. A similar bill will
be offered authorizing towns in the

Dear Sir:
Farmers in getting the formula for
the treatment of the stock disease
which has been raging in this part
of the State, oftimes get it from one
another, and in the recopying nee
essary ingredients are left out re-
sulting in the faulty filling of the
formula by druggist; especially in
cases where the formula is not a
familiar one to the druggist. 1t is
therefore for the benefit of the farm
ers that these formulas are written
correctly.
Formulas have been brought to
me, and questions have been asked
as to the correct order of the ingre-
dients, some Of these have been found
to contain as many as three mis-
takes, necessitating a complete re-
writing Of the formula, also some
druggists in the upper section of the
State especially in the vicinity of
Dover seem to alter them to suit

HELP where help is needed must
be the aim of all who will come in
to contact with conditions this COM
ing winter, where assistance is a
necessity to prevent suffering. I'm
employed people are not all needy
case.; for either charity or jobs of
work at public expense. Fifty per
cent of the unemployed in rural
Delaware this winter season, will be
those with annual seasOnable idle
ness, which has prevailed for time
immemOrial, and will continue; it
is a part of the conditions which
must be during the winter season;
nature and labor are having the rest
periods which is part of usual con-
ditions. All cases of unemployed
need to be investigated before either
cash, food or employment is pro-
vided There is no question as to
idleness of many people; but for
agricultural labor there is a very
different condition from labor in
factory, store or occupations in
cities. No rent in most cases is to
be paid, and much of the edible sup
plies are in cellars. Yet there is
a disposition to take assistance
when handed out without question
in a majority of cases. Each rural
community knows who are worthy
and need public aid, and it will be
given; as it always has. There are
a few cases where illness, poor man
agement or unforeseen calamity has
befallen. which must be CARED for;
but a promiscuous hand-out of a
dole, destroys self pride. In justice
70 the worthy and needy must be in
Testigated and then provide accord
ingIy to the situation. There are a
few cases where owners of home
will require assistance-but not
Dromiscuous charity. Let us act
with humane kindness to help those
who may find the going bit hard
to provide for even themselves, as
well as a family. The Welfare Home
at Smyrna is a splendid institution
as a base for the old and helpless;
but the unemployed is another prob
lem in itself Give. wisely, but give
literally, and err ON the side of

Milford, Friday, October 20, 1888

THE general improvement brought
about within the past seven months
is wonderful. Plants have reopened,
the wheels of industry have started
to turn. At last two million men
and women who were unemployed
now have jobs. Wages have risen.
Buying power has been increased.
Business of all kinds has expanded.
We have taken our first long and
courageous strides back to normal
economic health. We are shaking
off the malady called depression,
and with heads up and eyes alert
are ready to enter a new era.
As time passes the emergency
will shrivel and vanish and the de-
preston will be remembered as one
of the major historic catastrophies
which visited its affections upon
mankind. Meanwhile, however, we
must not forget the vast numbers
still in need of food, clothes, shell
ter, medical attention and jobs.
They will need help during the
coming winter.
The Federal and State govern
ments have and still are dispensing
relief upon an unprecedented scale.
The resources however, can and will
be exhausted unless private charity
takes compassion upon those who
are not, and cannot be cared for by
public relief
1t is an established fact that in
all times good or bad many need
help. The situation of unemploy-
ment did not begin with the depres-
sion Of 1929. A certain number Of
people both men and women are in
voluntarily jobless at all times.
They must receive shelter and food.
Certain other large groups are
permanently in need of charity. In
states where old age pensions have
not been established, the aged must
be supported by charity. Children
deprived of the support of working
parents must be raised. The sick,
the manned and the unfortunate all
must be aided
1t is expected that $7S,OO0,OOO will
be given this winter for private re-
lief. Are you willing and ready to
do your share to help the Govern
ment alleviate all who are in pow
erty stricken conditions?
