a recognition of the metal as primary money, nor will it con- tribute in any particular de- gree toward the restoration of silver as a stable monetary medium outside of the silver countries.
 To those familiar with the silver question it is clear tha. no plan which fails to recog- nize silver as basic money can be considered an adequate aid for the white metal or likely to have any important effects in enhancing it's value.
 The agreements are probably the best that our representa- lives could do but, considering the attitude of both the Senate and House as expressed in their admonition to the dele gates to make every effort to secure the restoration of silver as basic money, it is doubtful if the conference agreements will meet the approval of Cong ress when presented for ratifi- cation.
Hyder weekly herald., 1933-08-26
Silver Agreements Inadequate

Advocates of silver remone- tization are apparently finding little cause for satisfaction in the silver agreements conclud- ed by the Amenican delegat, :, ion at the London conference.
 Although of some value in the direction of preventing dumping of silver, the chief cause of the low prices prevail ing during the past three years; monetary authorities point out that the agreements can have but. slight effect in enhancing the value of silver in the world market. It is said that the quantity of silver to be with drawn annually by the silver producing and silver-using nat ions is too small to create more than a seanty margin between production and ordinary con- mercial demand, hence the an- ticipated shortage and result ant advance in price will not materialize; at least in the de- gree evidently expected by the framers.
 It is also said that any arti- ficial shortage O f supply which might be created by the annual joint withdrawal f 35,000,000 ounces could be virtually offset through the re- lease of additional quantities of silver from the stocks of India, Spain and China through the clause permitting such ad- ditional amounts to be released to European powers for pay ment of debts due the United States.
 From which it appears that there is no more than a slight prospect of the agreements having any pronounced effect on the silver situation, even if they are ratified by the sigma tory governments; which in itself is an eventuality by no means assured.
 The chief defect in the plan from the viewpoint of the bi- metallist is that it treats silver purely as commodity and fails entirely to recognize the metal as primary money. It is true that the agreement be- tween the silver-using coutries proposes the employment of silver withheld from the mark ct as coinage or backing for currency, but this is in no sense

NATIONAL ROAD
CCOntinued from Fira Page]


parking space has been built by the
State Highway Department at the
Indian River Inlet on the newly
opened ocean boulevard between
Rehoboth Beach and Bethany Beach.
Many motorists inspected the new
road last Sunday.
Preparing for any kind of winter
that may appear in Delaware. the
State Highway Department is pre-
pairing to purchase twenty blade
plows to be used by small trucks,
supplementing the work of the large
snow plOws on the State roads this
year. In light SHOWS or even in
heavy SHOWS following up the pre-
liminary passage by a large plOw,
the small plows have been found to
be very useful and much more eco
nomical than the constant use of the
larger plows.
The construction of macadam
drive ways to the various buildings
on the grounds of Delaware Colony
at Stockley and at the State College
for Colored Students at Dover has
been authorized and bids are expect
ed to be asked in a short time on
this work. These two will about
complete work to be done on State
Institutions as similar work has
shortly been finished at the State
Hospital at Farnhurst, the Welfare
Home at Smyrna, the Ferris Indus
trial School, EdgemOnt Sanatarium,
and Brandywine Sanatarium near
Wilmington.
The State Highway Department
will very shortly begin the marking
by numbers of seventeen of the more
important State routes and have
ordered four hundred sign numbers
for installation. This beginning
will bring about the eventual nam
ing of all routes by numbers and in
stead of designating a road by the
name of the towns along it such as
the Dover -Hartly road, they will
hereafter be known as State Route
10 or State Route 20. This action
is in line with the policy of most
other states in designating their
roads.

the special session of the Legisla-
ture last November for relief of the
needy throughout the State is pro-
Vided for by a resolution introduced
In the House Wednesday afternoon
by Representative Rees. 1t would
authorize the presiding officer of the
Senate to appoint a committee of
three Senators and the Speaker of
the House to appoint committee of
three Representatives and these six
would be clothed with the power to

der the provisions of the resolution,
could be carried on even after final
adjournment of the present special
session.
The members of the Relief Com
mission are: Jasper E. Crane, chair
man; Frank Collins, vice chairman;
Il. G. Ackart, Mrs. Helen w. Cav
throp, Mrs. Caroline T. Hughes,
Walter Dent Smith, John Wiley

sation.
An appropriation of $4,000 is pro-
vided for in the resolution from the
general fund of the State to defray
the expenses of the investigation.
Each member would be allowed IS

MANY SCHOOLS IN SUSSEX
EXHIBIT ART AT CONVENTION


The large new gymnasium of the
Newark Schools is housing during
this week art work from over 100
schools. A prominent place has
been given to work from the Lewes
Millsboro and Lord Baltimore
schools; SO other Sussex County
Schools are represented. One of the
exhibits from Lewes is a textile
printed with four color blocks. This
was a problem taken up by high
school class in connection with the
unit Textiles and Their Appropri-
ate Uses" Some hand woven rugs
and table covers from Millsboro
were made in connection with a
study of the same unit. Pottery and
clay modelling from the Lord Balti-
more school illustrate work ON an
other unit; namely, "Clay, Its Uses
and Possibilities" The drawings,
paintings, friezes, wall hangings,
poster, stage sets, etc, from other
schools are too numerous to mem
ton, but representative of much
worthwhile work.
The whole exhibit reflects the real
grade through the high school and
is representative of their own think
ing and reactions. Formerly, too
much emphasis in our schools has
been put on technique and adult
standards. Today educators real
ize as never before that if boys and
girls are to be prepared for success
full living in this ever-changing
world they must develop largely
through their own activities. A child
becomes strong physically only by
using his own muscles. A child de-
velops ability to think only through
practice in thinking, in solving
problems that are on the level of
his own ability and interests.
Some visitors who attend the ex-
hibit may from force of habit still
measure the work by adult stand
ards, may feel some of it is unfin-
ished or careless in its appearance.
All will agree, however, that the art
work of today is making the other
school subjects such as history and
geography much more real and in
teresting to the child. They will
also be impressed with the fact that
children who are acquiring as many
interests and learning
to do as many interesting things
as are represented by the exhibits
are at least being we'll equipped to
enjoy day by day living. The indi-
vidual who grows up with an appre-
citation of the beauty that is all about
i III g..rr
circle of impersonal interests is an
asset to any community. He keeps
his balance when the strains of life
come to him; he shares of his own
richness when they come to others.
