.P.S. DUPONT ASKS
R. G. HOUSTON TO
BE HIS ADVISOR
[COmiHHed from FIH Pagsl
n that viewpoint that Mr.. DUPONT

Ou that viewpoint ludl MI. Jul Ohe
takes exception.
Defends Liquors Act
"The act is a statement in detail
concerning those who may nlanufae-
ture, sell, purchase, transport and
possess alcoholic liquor of all
kinds" Mr.. duUont writes. "Licens-
es and reports are required to in
sure proper conduct of the busi-
ness. The days and hours during
which sale is permitted are officially
stated. | doubt if more detailed
plan could be devised. Details seem
to be in line with popular opinion
and will soon prove their worth"
Mr. dupont reminded former Con-
gresham Houston that past en-
deavors to control the liquor traffic
have been based upon the assump-
tion that the partaking Of alcoholic
drink is undesirable, perhaps moral
ly wrong and sinful; that, therefore,
those engaged in the conduct of the
liquor traffic are to be classed some
what as the 'untouchables' OF India
Another phase of the editorial in
question, which charged that Mr..
DUPONT appointed someone else to
do the work" of the State Tax De-
partment of which he is head, was
answered.
Praise Office Force
"The remark implies neglect or
lack of personal supervision on my
part" Mr.. duPont's letter read.
while / have the greatest conf
dence in the personnel of the de-
partment and am quite sure that the
latter could be conducted satisfac-
tory without obligation on my part
to 40 tho work. / assure you that
during the eight years since my APP
pointment to the position of State
Tax Commissioner practically every
expense voucher and every state
ment of the tax Office has passed be-
fore me, and every important case
involving dispute has been discussed
with me, and that the return OF ev-
cry taxable of moment and the ad-
iustment of every tax return has
been presented to me for personal
inspection"
Must Retrieve Business
Regarding the suggestion that
members of the w. C. t. U. sell beer,
Mr.. dupont continues:
'Your reply to this seemingly fam
tastic suggestion will probably inn
ply that the ladies of the w. e. T..
u. and their male counterparts
would not associate themselves with
such a business, but if they are IN
willing to take this step how can
they expect others to retrieve the
business from its fallen position?
prohibition has been an easy
means toward relief from RESPONSE
bility. We forbade the liquor trafiic
and washed our hands of the whole
affair, thus leaving the business to
the underworld thereby playing di-
rectly into its hands. No step could
support more successfully the con-
tinuation of the intolerable condi-
tions of prohibition than the refus-
al on the part of the better class OF
people to have contact with the liz
uor business"

DRY ARGUMENTS
HIT NSTATEMENT

[C0ntinned from Err Pagel

[COHfiHHed from Firm Pagel
in Manitoba for the years 1921-1925
average 1948.
again DR.. BARLEY says The Mon
treal Star states, Drunkenness
among women increased So per
cent. 1t is not made clear when or
where this increase was noticed,
but the arrests for drunkenness in
the City of Montreal, with over S1S,-
900 population, decreased from 1865
in the year 1927 to something less
than 1000 for the year 1882. These
figures are again of interest as COM
pared to the City of Wilmington.
Holds Spirits Not Increased
I'VE find again that DR.. Bartley
says The British Columbia Liquor
Board states since the opening Of
the beer parlors the sales of hard
liquors increased so per cent The
first year in which the sale of beer
by the bottle or glass was authoriz-
ed was 1929. The sale of spirits were
$6,703,00O; of beer, $5,562,000 in 1926.
In 1882, the sale of was S6,3SS,OOO,
and of beer, $4,462,O0O.
81 was unable to check the source
of DR.. Bartley's statement though
his information indicates that there
is a lack of accordance with official
figures. However, it might be well to
sum up the Canadian situation by
calling attention to the following:
"In the year, 1929, the Provinces
of Quebec and British Columbia in
augurated the Canadian system,
having previously been under the
prohibition laws that had been in
force. Manitoba and Alberta fol-
lowed in 1924 and Saskatchewan in
1926; Ontario in 1927 and with
small provinces in later years. The
small Province of Prince Edward
Island is the last remaining adher-
ent of prohibition in Canada. Ger
tainly there is merit in this Canad-
ian system, which appeals to Canad-
ians as II does to a number of Amer
leans, including myself. 1t is to be
noted that the Delaware Liquor
Conrtol Act is sufficiently broad to
permit adoption of nearly all of the
details embodied in the laws of the
Canadian provinces, excepting that
the individual licenses cannot be
required of consumers"

KENT COUNTY AGENT SUGGESTS
PRE-BLOSSOM SPRAY FOR GRAPES
Continued From Page one)

before the grapes touch each other
in the clusters. or. when they are
about the size Of garden peas.
These sprays are for the further
protection against the spread of any
diseases such as black rot and
brown rot, as we'll as for the control
of the grape berry-moth, leaf-folder,
root-worm and rose bug in the event
these insects should be prevalent in
sufficient numbers to .injure the
vines and the prospects for a crop
of grapes. In seasons when the
period between the pre-blossom and
after-blossom is delayed more than
one week, it may be necessary for
growers to make an extra applica-
ton of Bordeaux to hold these dis
eases In check and to insure clean
er crop of grapes at harvest.

MORE CANNING
BY HOUSEWIVES
[COntinned from Err Pagel


however, that would profit by car
rying out this same plan, that every
effort possible is being made to urge
the rural people to take advantage
of the opportunity which is theirs.
Canning should begin now with
the coming in of asparagus and 9th
er spring vegetables as peas, beets,
etc. The young, tender vegetables
can to much better advantage. For
successful canning, one must not
wait until vegetables have grown
old and tough.
All fruits and vegetables should
be handled quickly, with no time
lost between gathering and placing
in the processing equipment. With
large quantities a portion has to
wait, so deterioration has an oppor-
tunity to start. Delay encourages
spoilage, and because of this many
times food spoils after it has been
canned. All fruits and vegetables
should be free from blemishes. Use
only sound products. They should
be under-ripe rather than over-ripe.
The hot packed method for vege-
tables and cold pack fruits are the
latest recommended methods for
canning. In the hot packed meth
cd, the vegetables are pre-cooked
for a few minutes and then put i'm
mediately into the clean, hot jars
and then in to the processing. This
may be either a water bath of hot
water or a steam pressure cooker.
The time period for processing is
much more in the water bath than
the pressure cooker. The pressure
cooker is recommended for non acid
vegetables and meats.
Information regarding time tables
for processing, etc, may be had for
the asking of the Home Demonstra-
tion Agent in Georgetown, Del.

sential that the vines and clusters
be sprayed thoroughly. This pro-
gram includes not only the use of
efficient spray machinery with
pumps that will maintain and deliv-
er the spray at a high pressure, but
that the arms and nozzles must be
adjusted so that the spray will come
into direct contact with the vines,
leaves and clusters.
This predecessor spray should be
followed with another application of
