CANAL TO ADMIT
LARGE CRAFTS
Senators and Congressman of
Delaware, Maryland and
New Jersey Urge Project
FOR WIDER WATERWAY

Republican Senators from Della
ware, Maryland and New Jersey
have arranged for a conference
with Secretary Ickes, public works
administrator, at which they will
urge speedy approval of funds for
the $12,5OO,OOO Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal project. Senator
Goldsborough (R-Md), arranged
the conference, and Senators
Townsend (R-DeD and Kean CR-
ND are planning to attend. 1t
will be held as soon as Ickes, still
suffering from the effects Of a rec
ent fall returns to his office. The
three will urge approval Of the plan
from standpoint Of benefits to
commerce and in relieving unem-
ployment, stressing the point that
although they are Of the opposite
party they are solidly with Dem
ocratic officials backing it. I'm
provements to the Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal, proposed by trade
groups of the three States above
would increase its dimensions SO
that naval vessels Of the cruiser
and lighter types could be accom-
modated, it was reported to the
Baltimore Association Of Com
merce by Admiral w. H. STANDBY,
acting Secretary of the Navy A
grant from the Public Works fund
is being sought for the widening
Of the canal and the approval Of
the Navy Department was sent by
G. H. Pouder, executive vice-presi-
dent of the association, to the
President and Harold L. Ickes, Ad-
of Public Works. Adj
miral Standby said in part: PRO
viding the transit of the canal is
not unduly hampered by overhead
obstruction, it would undoubtedly
be of considerable value to the ma
tional defense in war and particu-
larry if the theatre of operations
lies in the Atlantic waters"

Cheswold Corner, a distance of
4.763 miles. This stretch of dual
road from Smyrna to Dover occa-
sions keen interest in this vicinity,
not only because it will employ
labor but because it will be an
improvement that citizens of
Smyrna and Dover have long look
ed forward to. It's going to
change the complexion of the
north and south bound dual roads
thru Smyrna and with the an
nouncement the road is to be
shortened by taking out the kinks
and bends toward Dover, makes
it all the more appealing. Duck
Creek and Lake Como bridge wild
ening is about completed. Road
grading will be pushed as winter
weather will allow.

We commemorate the birthdays of
great men according to their
chievements it is fitting that we

times of old. The giving of gifts
is symbolical of the great gift CIV
en- the world in the birth of Christ.

the widely known Christmas Song,

ever be used as a reminder of the
night when the three wise men

Well Known Pair
Will Be Wed At
Legion's Carnival
To Be Featured at Indoor
Event and Trade Fes-
tivaI Nov. 6 to II

Recent activities of Dan Cupid
indicate that the economic de-
preston is waning. according to
officials Of Hubert NJ. Smith post
Of the American Legion.
The Legion will sponsor an in
door circus and trade festival at
the high school gymnasium Nov.
6 to II, and in order to arouse
interest in the event it decided to
enlist Cupid's aid. Dan pulled
off his coat, rolled up his sleeves
and got busy. The first thing he
did was to buy a little space in
the classified columns of The
Times-News, and that certainly
helped. Within three days he had
applications from four couples
who wanted to be the principals
in a public wedding at the indoor
circus. One man heard about it
down in Spartanburg, S. c.. and
asked that he and his best girl be
considered for the roles. But
Dan has everyone guessing on
whom he finally selected. All he
will say is that it is a well-known
Hendersonville couple and that
he will announce the names dur
ing the week Of November 6.
