DIES In AUTO CRASH
Driver of Death Car Admitted Hav.
ing Several Drinks

Frank D. Satterfield, As years old,
an orderly employed at the U. S. Vet
erans' Hospital at Coatesville, Pa,
was killed last Saturday night
when the automobile in which
he was riding with DR.. Frank
Dwyer, SO years old, also connected
with the hospital, crashed into wall
at the side of the bridge near Silver
Lake, north of Dover.
DR.. Dwyer received a broken right
leg and decorations, and is under
treatment at the Kent General Hos
pital. Corporal Conrad and Private
Moore, of the State police, were in
formed by other motorists that short
ly before the accident, they were
forced off the road by DR.. Dwyer who
they said was driving at high speed
The police said DR.. Dwyer admitted
he had several drinks, but he was not
intoxicated when examined by a
physician.
He will be arrested on a charge of
reckless driving and manslaughter
upon his release from the hospital.
The inquest into Satterfleld's death
has also been deferred until that
time. Satterfeld's home was near
Bridgeville and the body was taken
there today for burial.

RURAL FOLKS TO

Postmaster Murphy Has
Arranged Schedule At
Request Of Farmers.

Postmaster William r. Murphy,
of Milford, has made important
changes in the schedule for deliver
ing mail to the patrons of the rural
routes served by the Milford post
office. Beginning with the first of
this month all mail delivered on the
thr@e routes out of the Milford post
office now leaves the office each
morning at 8 O'Clock. Formerly the
mafl left at 11.30 o'clock. For some
time past the farmers have been an
xious to have their mail sent out
earlier in the day. Two very i'm
portant considerations entered into
the favorably action for the change.
One of these was the fact that in
rnGst Instances the farmers may now
get their newspapers before noon
each day. The second is the matter
of shipping perishable goods. I'm
der the old method it frequently
happened that the drivers of the ru-
raj routes arrived back at the post
office too late for the packages to
be forwarded the same day. This
resulted in loss and inconvenience
to the shippers of perishable mer-
chandise. Now this is done away

Last Connecting Link OF

way Under Contract.

Delaware is at present building the
last link in a very important United
States Highway that when complet-
ed, will connect the Atlantic and
the Pacific oceans. At present u.
S. Route so starts from San Fran
cisco in California and runs to An
napolis, Md, where a continuous
highway runs east to Milton in low
er Delaware.
At this point an eighteen foot
concrete road is now being construct
ed which will connect with the Mil
ford-Rehoboth Beach road, which
when completed will provide the
last link in the direct route from
one ocean to another and which will
probably be finally designated by
the United States Engineers as the
continuation and end of Route so,
it's final terminus being the Allan
tic Ocean at Rehoboth Beach.
The only state road in Delaware
that is completely closed to travel
is the concrete road between Bacons
and Whitesville in Sussex County
where bridge has been washed out.
Bids will be received November Is

Present Resolution To

Following Canvass New
Commission Members
Are Sworn In.
VOTE IS CANVASSED

At a meeting of the State Board
of Education, a resolution has been
adopted urging the Legislature, il
school funds are borrowed, to place
safeguards about the procedure OF
loaning. This was done in order
that in the future assurance will be
had the monies will be returned to
the school fund.
Other matters considered by the
tSate Board included the canvassing
of the votes taken at the special
school elections held at Delmar and
at Magnolia for new and improved
school buildings at these two places.
The Delmar district was first con-
sidered, the result of the election
showing the selection as members of
the school commission of S. N. Gull
yer, George M. Nelson, H. E. Phillips
and S. M. Ellis. These persons to-
gether with Messrs. Simon, Beebe,
Brown and Huber, of the State Board
constitute the building commission.
Organization was affected here af-
ter the members of the commission
had been sworn in by the selection
of George M. Nelson as chairman;
E. A. Simon, vice-chairman; secre-
tary, D. H. V. Holloway; acting Sec
retary, S. M. Ellis. Robinson Stan
hope and Manning were selected as
the architects for the building.
The Magnolia school commission
also appeared before the State board
1t includes Caleb Johnson, Geo. w.
Collins, w. P. Jackson and ]. Leon
ard Soper. The State board mem
bers include Messrs. Pierce, Beebe,
Simon and Huber. After being sworn
in, they organized by the selection
of J. Leonard Soper as chairman;
Warren Price, vice-chairman; DR..
H. V. Holloway, secretary, and Caleb
w. Johnson as acting secretary.
They selected George Edwin Polk
as architect for the. building and
also accepted the services of the
Delaware School Foundation as to
the services of the engineer.
The board considered at some
length counter proposals from Re-
hoboth, Roxana and Odessa as to
building larger schools than the
State Board had planned. 1t was fin

DRY ERR NEARS

VOTE REPEAL
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Utah
And Kentucky Seal Dry
Amendments Doom.
NORTH AND SOUTH
CAROLINA VOTE DRY
Former State Has Over
wheIming Majority;
Other Has Close Vote.

The Eeighteenth Amendment to
the Federal Constitution is doomed.
This was definitely decided when the
votes on the question we're tabulat-
ed following the elections last Tues
day. Joining the steady parade OF
States favoring repeal were Penn
sylvania, with a majority approxi-
mately one million votes; Ohio with
approximately 100000 majority;
Utah with a 3 to majority and Ken
lucky seemingly going for repeal as
the vote is slowly coming in from
that state. The vote in Kentucky is
not counted until Wednesday at noon
thus making the returns day la
ter than in other states. North Caro-
lima and South Carolina remained in
the dry column. North Carolina gave
a two and half to one majority for
retention of the amendment; but in
South Carolina the majority was
less than 1000.
With the final tabulation of votes
on the liquor question it would seem
that the final actions looking to the
elimination of the 18th Amendment
will be taken on December 5. Ken
lucky holds its convention this
month, while Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Utah conventions meet December 5.
According to the Attorney General
of the United States liquor may leg
ally be sold in states providing for
its sale Immediately after the rati-
fication of the 21st Amendment on
December 5.
Liquor may legally be sold in 19
states when the last step in repeal
OF the 18th Amendment is taken il
December.
These States are:
Arizona, California, Colorado, Con-
necticut, Delaware, Illinois, Louisi-
ana, Maryland, Massachusetts,, Mon
tant, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mex
leo, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Rhode
Island, Washington and Wisconsin.

ton, and repeal of national constitu-
tional prohibition leaves them unaf-
fected.

Investigation Of
Sussex Relief Work
State Commission Report Asks That Attorney Gener
al Investigate Landreth LaytOn'S Work While A
Member Of The Commission Make Serious
Charges Against Georgetown Man.

In a report submitted to Governor
Buck, which he forwarded to both
branches of the General Assembly
last Friday afternoon, members of
the Temporary Emergency Relief
Commission allege mismanagement
on the part of Landreth L. Layton,
of Georgetown, former relief director
for Sussex County, in the conduct
of relief work in this county.
The report recommends to Cover
nor Buck that an investigation of
relief work in Sussex County be
made by the Attorney General. The
report was signed by all of the mem
bers of the commission, including
John Wiley Thought, who succeeded
Mr.. Layton as a member of the com
mission.
Mr.. Layton was the Democratic
candidate for Governor at the last
general election. Some of his
friends indicate that they think that
politics had something to do with
the report. The report submitted
carries full details of relief work
conducted by the Commission for
each county in the State. That por-

ties gives figures and statistics show

URGE TYPHOID
NOCULATTON
State Board Of Health
Says Milford Has Been
Well Protected.

The State Board of Health has
just issued a notice to the effect
that the period of immunity from
typhoid fever from the inoculations
made three years ago has about ex-
pired. 1t will be recalled that three
years ago there was an epidemic of
the disease in Milford and vicinity
and at that time practically every
person in the City was inoculated
against the disease. Since that time
there have been but three cases of
typhoid fever; and in each instance
the victim had not been inoculated.
The State Board of Health is again
advising all persons to go to their
physicians and have this preventa-
tive work done. Next Tuesday,
November 18th, DR.. Sargent, of the
State Board of Health will be in
charge of a free incubation clinic
in the City Council rooms in Mil
ford between the hours of 10 in the
morning and o'clock in the after
noon.
The clinic in Milford will be for
the benefit of those persons who can
not afford to have the work done by
their family physicians. Regardless
of whether you take advantage of
this free service or not, the State
Board of Health says that it is i'm
portant that the incubation be done
at this time in order to protect your
self and your family against the di-
sease. The last inoculations were
made in Milford in October, 1880.
The treatment is said only to prevent
for three years. No school children
will be inoculated at the clinic next
Tuesday. This will be done at the
school building with the consent of
the parents.

THOMAS SIMPSON DIES
SUDDENLY AT HOME
Milford Feed Merchant Expired Al
ter Eating Supper on Monday

Thomas Simpson, well-known Mil
ford business man, died suddenly
Monday evening shortly after he
had eaten his evening meal. Death
was the result of a heart attack.
He was Al years of age. Mr.. Simp-
son had not been feeling well for
a few days before his sudden death,
but on Monday he had been at his
place of business to direct affairs.
After he had completed his evening
meal, he started to go to the living
room. He was not feeling well, but
there was no indication that he was
seriously ill. AS he entered the
room he fell across a davenport. A
physician was called, but before he
arrived death han ensued. Mr.. Simp-
son has been active in the feed and
farm supply business for many
years. He is survived by his wife
and two daughters. Funeral serv-
ices were held yesterday afternoon
at o'clock at his late home. Rev.
Frank Herson, pastor of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, officiated.
Interment was made at Odd Fellows
Cemetery.

"The work was badly mismanaged
from the start, and all efforts to cor
rect the difficulties under its former
direction were unsuccessful. Numer-
Gus and widespread complaints were
made by residents of Sussex county,
including many of its leading citi-
zens of the policies and methods of
the former Relief Director. Protests
came in from people receiving relief.
Some pitiful cases of destitution
were not given adequate attention.
Although the number of people re-
quiring relief in Sussex county is
so small in proportion to that of the
rest of the State, the complaints
from Sussex alone to the Federal
Emergency Relief administrator
were ten times those from all the
rest of the State. Relief clints were
publicly warned that they would be
given no further help if they patron
lied chain stores, although there was
no warrant for such extreme action.
Men employed on work relief were
paid with food orders instead of
cash, which was contrary to the re-
lief act and to the rules of the Com
mission. Cash subscriptions were
obtained from property owners for
20 per cent of the cost of drainage
ditch projects, though nothing in the

Safety Council Advises Motorists To
Use Care In Winter Starting Of Can
Says Death From MOnOride Gas May Result From
Failure To Open Garage Doors And Windows Be
fore Starting The Motor.

Carbon monoxide gas is the un-
seen killer that turks in every gar
age. The Delaware Safety Council
urges motorists to beware of ex-
haust gas. 1t contains large
amount of carbon monoxide, which
is a deadly poison. Never start a
car in a garage without having the
doors and windows open. Carbon
monoxide gas is colorless and taste
less but is deadly poison. Poison
ing by carbon monoxide is cumula-
tive. A slight exposure daily may
ultimately cause death. Five min
utes continuous exposure is usually
sufficient for asphyxiation. Carbon
monoxide poisoning is too rapid to
wait for the usual symptoms of
headache and neusea. After a per-
son is overcome by carbon monoxide
gas to the extent that breathing is
stopped, artificial respiration should
be rendered at once in the open air.

tim from the gas-filled garage, begin
