FRANCE CERTAIN
TO DEFAULT ON
DEBT, is BELIEF
No Provision for Payment
Made in Budget for
1884.

PARIS. Dec. Frances default
on theDec. Is war debt payment to
he United States became virtual
certainty today, with the govern
ment of Camille Chautemps prepar-
ing to face the chamber of deputies
on the budget for 1884.
There is no provision in the bud
get for making the payment, which
calls for S19154,046, as a half years
interest on the French war debt for
the fiscal year 1933-1934. Moreover,
Frenchmen seem more than ever
convinced that the debt should not
be paid.
When the first default was made
last Dec. Is, many Frenchmen be-
lieved the government acted un-
wisely They watched Great Britain,
Italy and other countries make full
payments, and believed they would
be granted a new deal before last
June's instalments became due.
But when no revision was made,
and the same countries paid cnly
token" sums last June, French
opinion became almost unanimous
that the government had been
right.
This conviction has been strength
ened by failure of the British to
receive concessions during the re-
cent Washington negotiations.
French officials circles continue
to point out that France never has
challenged the principle of the debt,
but contended that changed world
conditions made new arrange
ment necessary.

The storm which swept over
Smyrna and vicinity last Wednes-

in this section for a number of
years. Trees were uprooted and
many branches were blown from
trees all around town. The most
damage was done on South Main

another one in front of the resi-

trees that fell at corner of Main

electric light wires and threw the
town in dargness for two or three

SEE NEED FOR

Baltimore Joins Wilmington
and Philadelphia for Stream
To Admit Ocean Liners
PUBLIC WORKS PROJECT

Baltimore shipping interests
have Joined with Wilmington and
Philadelphia in seeking to have the
Chesapeake and Delaware Canal
deepened and widened so as to
foster ocean liner traffic. It is
hoped to interest the Federal gov
ernment sufficiently so as to have
the project included in the $780,
100000 Federal public works pro-
gram. Col. Earl I. Brown, U. S.
District Engineer in charge of Viii
mington and Philadelphia areas, is
completing survey of the project
which he will submit to the U. s..
Engineer Department. The Balti-
more Association of Commerce will
ask the government to have the
canal deepened to permit transpor-
tation by deep draft vessels and
thereby shorten the run between
Baltimore and to the northern At
lantic seaboard and Europe. Sur
veys have been made in the last
two years which show the poten-
tial benefits to shipping from this
project and from the completion of
the ports general program of i'm
provement. With the operation of
the Baltimore Mail Steamship Line
the Baltimore has obtained di-
rect service to European ports for
two years and maritime interests
are now seeking further develop
ment of the port. The Baltimore
Association of Commerce says of
the Chesapeake and Delaware can
al improvement: This waterway
has long been viewed as Balti-
more's solution for a closer outlet
to the sea and for more intimate
contact with the important ports
of the north at which our ships
must call in their assembling and

DUAL HIGHWAY.
NOW TO SMYRNA
Will Be Opened to the Public
On Or Before Friday
June the 30th
ROAD TO WILMINGTON

Two more sections of the Dual
Road will be opened by Friday,
June 80. One of these will be the
road from Smyrna to Reynolds
Corner below Blackbird and the
other from the State Road Police
Station of Rogers Corner, known
as the Dual Road to Wilmington.
This, when open, will give from
Wilmington to Smyrna one of the
longest stretches of Dual Road in
the country. There are about
three miles and a half from Smyr-
ma to Reynolds Corner and thir-
teen miles from the Police Station
at State Road to Wilmington. The
concrete, Smyrna to Reynolds
Corner, has been laid and work
men are now building the should
ers to be ready for the opening on
or before June 30. Much spec
ulation is had over the road
from the north side of Duck Creek
Bridge thru Smyrna to the point
above the State Welfare Home,
where the dual will branch out to
Cheswold and Dover. One report
is there will be separate two-way
lanes thru Smyrna. Business plac-
es on the Boulevard are opposed to
this, fearing it will hurt their bus
mess and insist on a four. lane traf-
fic. The highway department has
not announced their final plans on
this. From a scenic point of view
a two-way road with flowers and
shrubbery between will be beauti-
full but eating houses and filling
stations and garages see it very
disturbing to them. The section
from Rodgers Corner to Farnhurst
including the new Farnhurst
bridge over the Pennsylvania Rail
road tracks and the traffic circle
at Rogers Corner, has been COM
pleted since April, but has not
been opened in order that the cost
of constructing the necessary con-
crete crossover would not be in
Cured. The old tavern at Hare's
Corner was torn down as part OF
