(P).-A man alleged to, be Forrest With

and said to be wanted in Kentucky,
Tennessee and Oklahoma on bank rob-

The man probably will be turned over
to Louisville authorities in connection
with robbery of the Bank Of New Hope
in 1929. Withers was indicted in Louis

A special session of the State

This followed approval Monday by

Meanwhile the industrial phase of
the recovery program reached the
public directly as the blue eagle

the blanket code went into effect.
Governor Buck has not yet an
nounced that he would call the spe-
cial session, but persons close to the
State administration, as we'll as men
most active In advancing Delaware's
cause in the recovery program, are
confident he will do so, especially in
view of the commissions action.

DEPUTY SEEN
AS NOMINEE FOR.
REVENUE POST
Assistant To Farley Says
That Announcement OF
Rust's Choice An Error.
CONFERENCE HELD
Choice Of Laurel Resident
Victory For Adams In
FactiOnal Fight.

Willard F. Deputy, of Laurel, will
in all probability, be nominated for
collector. of internal revenue for the
Delaware District, Joseph c. O'Ma-
honey, First Assistant Postmaster
General and aide to Chairman Far
ley on patronage said on Monday.
Mr.. O'Mahoney said the White
House announcement of the nomi-
nation of Townsend P. Rust for the
post late Friday was an error but
declared he did not know how the
error occurred.
Mr.. Rust was the candidate of the
Tunnell-Biggs-B faction be-
fore the settlement of that factions
dispute with Congressman Wilbur
L. Adams and his name had been
presented to Chairman Farley some
weeks ago. His particular backer
was James M. Tunnel, National
Committeeman, of Georgetown.
A few hours after the announce
ment of Rust's appointment mem
bers of the Sussex County Demo-
cratic Committee and the Sussex
members of the Democratic State
Committee met at Georgetown to Sc
lect a candidate for the post of in
ternal revenue collector as agreed
at the conference of Adams, Biggs,
Tunnel and Mrs. Bodziak with o.
Mahoney last week.
The committee chose Deputy, who
was the Adams candidate, over Rust
and a copy of the committees reso-
luton has been presented to O'Ma-
honey. The nomination hay have to
swait the return of President Roos-
evelt from Hyde Park.
Under the plan originally suggest
ed by Congressman Adams for the
appointment of patronage between
the three counties the post of col
lector had been scheduled to go to
Kent county but under the agree
ment worked out in conference with
O'Mahoney it was shifted to Sussex.
Kent county will probably get the
post of United States marshal.
The committees selection of Dep
uty over Rust was a victory for
Congressman Adams.

SUMMER MEET
Delaware And Maryland
Press Associations To
Support Recovery Act.
CLEVELAND SPEAKS

The proposed newspaper code oc-
cupied the attention of 40 editors
and publishers who gathered at Re
hoboth Beach Saturday for the mid
summer joint session of the Del
Mar-Va and Maryland Press Asso-
Citations.
They adopted resolution pIedging
full cooperation with the Presi-
dents blanket code under the Ma
tional Recovery Act" but urged
that in the adoption of the finGi
code covering the printing industry
special provisions be made for pub
lisher-printers as differentiated from
commercial printing plants because
of the wide variation in the prob
lens confronting the two groups.
The resolution also urged adop-
tion "of the code submitted or to be
submitted by the National Editorial
Association for the operation of
country publish-printer plants, or
inclusion in the code to be adopted
of such provisions as will adequate
ly comply with the spirit of the
National Recovery Administration
but will not work serious hardship
on the country publisher-printer.
The principal speakers at the din
ner meeting in the Hotel Belhaven
were U. S. Senator Daniel o. Hast
ings and Richard Cleveland, son of
former President Cleveland. After
reminiscing over his early political
associations, Senator Hastings brief
ly discussed the NRA program, de-
claring he is giving it his full sup
port, although he is doubtful as to
the achievement of all its aims.
President Worthington of the Mary
land Association, also spoke.
Fred G. Usilton, publisher of the
Kent News, of Chestertown, Md,
discussed the NRA program as it
applies to newspapers. Richard
Cleveland, Baltimore attorney and
son of the late President Cleveland,
also discussed the NRA program.

DELAWA ARE WHEAT
CROP QUOTA SET
Allotment Aimed To Cut 1894 Yield
From Yearly Average OF 1,799,6OO

The Roosevelt administration has
decided to go ahead with its domes-
tic wheat program without waiting
for an international grain agree
ment.
Simultaneously with the recess of
the London wheat conference, Sec
retary Wallace announced the
amounts that each state and county
would be allotted to grow next year
of the 456, 6,196,5S8 bushels of wheat
that has been estimated as the
amount that will be needed for do
mestic consumption. ?,
Wallace set Delaware's wheat
quota at 971,7O3 bushels, as compar-
ed with the States average yearly
production of 1,799.600 from 1928 to
1888.
Quotas set for three counties fol-
lows New Castle 392,007; Kent,
420,0S5, and Sussex, 1851.
Wallace said that within ten days
he would proclaim the percentage of
acreage reduction that would he re-
quired of farmers in order to quail
fly for benefit payments of up to
$196.OOO, 900 under the voluntary do
nestle allotment plan.
Previously, he had announced that
he would require an acreage reduc-
tion up to a maximum of 20 per
cent with the final figure to await
the outcome of the London wheat
conference. After that meeting re-
cessed until August 21, he refused
to express an opinion as to the
prospects of an International agree
ment being reached later.

The 198th Coast Artillery, Anti

Artillery, Harbor Defense, Delaware
National Guard, swung into active
training at Bethany Beach on Mon
day. Although the day was hot and
the routine difficult owing to de-
sire on the part of commanding Off
GERS to get into stride as soon as
possible, both officers and men en-
joyed the fine swimming in the At
lantic Ocean, a quarter of mile
from the camp, later in the day.
The First Battalion, under Major
Henry c. Ray, placed its six 3-inch
anti-aircraft guns into position, fac
ing the entrance to the camp proper.
Settling shots were fired and tests
of the funs made to determine if any
repairs, fixtures of improvements
over last year was needed. The bat
teries, all of them from Wilmington,
quickly manned the guns and firing
started Tuesday morning. The pre-
liminary work of tracing targets
towed by an airplane over the ocean
was carried out and communication
lines established with the comman-
ding officers headquarters.
Battery A, 261st Coast Artillery,
of Laurel, also placed its gun into
position across the road from the
three-inch guns. This gun, 155
millimetre or 6-inch type, fires
projectile weighing around 121
pounds, including shell and charge.
Owing to the economy movement by
the Federal Government, the gun
will not be fired in camp, unless or
dered to do so at the last minute
and if ammunition is shipped to the
camp for it. The gun and battery is
commanded by Lieutenant Luke L.
Light, in the absence of Captain
William A. Torbert, who is on
