Above this frantic yell for repeal

There is a way that seemeth right

"Seek we first the kingdom of God

its attendant evils.
Those who are whooping for re-
peal are trying to make people be-
lieve that Prohibition has been a
failure. The fact is that it has not
had a chance. They are trying to
make people believe that there is
more drinking in schools and col
ieges than before Prohibition, but
with over 100000 more students
there is so much less drinking that
National educators say "Prohibi-
tion is the greatest blessing that

So that charge is just not true.
Farmers would suffer by repeal.

ministration of this law? The par
ticular point on which I need your
assistance would be proper selec-
tion of those licensed to dispense
alcoholic liquor and the improve
ment of the establishments so lie
ensed." Prohibition has been an
easy means toward relief from re-
sponsibility," says Mr.. DUPONT.
1--WE forbade the liquor traffic and
washed our hands of the whole af..
fair, thus leaving the business to
the underworld thereby playing
directly into its hands. No step
could support more successfully the
continuation of the intolerable con-
ditions of prohibition than the re-
fusal on the part Of the better
class of people to have contact
with the liquor business" There
fore your ballot on Saturday next,
May 27, to end Federal Prohibition
and bring back decency and temp
erance. The demand for Repeal
comes from the great temperate
body of the people. They want
local laws that will be enforced and
respected without Federal interfer-
ence. They want neither speak
easy or saloon. Neither the Prohi-
bition speakeasy nor the old time
saloon can exist in Delaware after
Repeal. Under Repeal law abus-
es can be corrected, effectively and
quickly. Repeal of Federal Prohi-
bition will take the profit from the
bootlegger and the Illegal distiller.
They will not be able to pay large
bribes for protection after Repeal.

FARMERS HEAR
MILK ADDRESS
Continued from Page One)

the Interstate Selling Plan was
adopted by the Association. The
average monthly production of
milk during October, November
and December of each year being
then used to establish what is
known as the basic quantity repre-
senting the approximate amount of
milk needed for fluid consumption
in this specified area. The quanti-
ty thus established by each indi-
vidual dairyman is paid for at a
higher price than the amount of
milk produced in excess thereof.
1t can readily be seen therefore
that producers of uniform guam
tity of milk were being paid a
premium for their effort by equal
izing monthly production through
out the year.
Value of an Allotment Plan
The value of such an allotment
plan throughout the entire Phila-
delphia Milk Shed is substantiated
by the fact that within five years
the production of about 35 per cent
of milk in excess of the basic guam
tity had been reduced on the av-
erage to approximately 10 per cent.
Having accomplished this result it
was necessary to modify our plan
II order to continue to maintain
this uniform production of milk.
This was done first, by modifying
the plan SO as to use the average
production during the basic months
Of two years and second by using
the average of the basic quantities
used during three years. When the
industrial situation caused a de-
crease in consumption, the produc-
tive problem was met by each in
dividual producer using first 90 per
cent of the established basic guam
tity, later this was reduced to 80
per cent and then to 85 per cent
meeting the continued decline in
consumption of fluid milk By
equalizing production to meet con
sumner demand through the appli-
cation of the plan as briefly out
lined the result has been very salts
factory on the whole. The Phila-
delphia Market however, has rec
emily been somewhat disturbed by
producers within the milk shed who
do not seem to realize the value of
keeping production in line with the
consumers requirements and have
continued excessive production to
the detriment of the producer of a
uniform quantity of milk. Our ex-
perience has proven conclusively
that it is impossible to maintain
satisfactory price to the producer
and at the same time an unlimited
opportunity to produce.
Urge Operation on Economic Basis
An allotment plan such as / have
outlined has proven its value. We
are urging the dairymen in the
Philadelphia Milk Shed to careful |
ly plan their productive operation
on an economic basis and to main
tain uniform supply of high
quality milk produced under sani-
tary conditions. The Interstate
Milk Producers Association thru
its affiliated organization, The Phil
adelphia Interstate Dairy Coun-
Gil, is spreading the knowledge to
the consumer of the food value of /
milk and its products in promoting
the growth Of the children and the /
health and welfare of the nation"

or maybe the region really makes
person sleepy.
During long period, Irving lived In
Spain. and while he was there he wrote
several books. One of these was The
Lite of Columbus" a fine piece OF
writing not Of the humorous type.
After returning from Spain, Irving
bought an old Dutch cottage near
Tsrrytown and Sleepy Hollow. He re-
manned a bachelor all his life.
Speaking of his cottage. Irving de-
clared that he was more happy there
than If he had been living in palace.
The reports which come down to us
say that Irving was a gentleman in the
best sense Of the word-that he was
kind of heart and tried TO give COM
fort to those with whom he came in
contact. With money earned from his
writings. he supported two of his
brothers and five nieces. When he
talked TO a person, he was gay and
cheerful: and 1t was a pleasure to
listen to him.

1889 He was the first American
humorLt to win fame in Europe.
Ike so many other men who have
won fame through writing amusing
things. Irving had much sorrow in his
life. In his early manhood, he was
sickly and was urged to travel for his
health" After the death of the girl he
had planned to marry, he sailed across
the Atlantic and spent two years in
Italy, Holland and England.
When he was 26 years old, he finished
writing a book called "A History Of
New York" Some persons suppose
that all history is dull" but I think
that is a mistake. Well written history
can be as exciting as a good novel.
Irving's book was not meant to be
history Of the usual kind. It was writ
ten in a serious tone; but it is filled
with good-natured fun about the old
Dutch settlers. A copy came into the
hands of Sir Walter Scott, and that
famous man declared that he laughed SO
much that his sides hurt him.
Ten years later, when The Sketch
Book" appeared in print Irving won new
favor. "The Sketch Book" contains
RIP Van Wrinkle" and THE Legend of
Sleepy Hollow"
When I visited the village called
Sleepy Hollow, had the feeling that
it was very sleepy place. Maybe that

often. Most of the time he, talked
to the Senators grouped around him
much as If he were professor lectur-
ing a class And he made the Sen
ators like it. Then came the filibuster
Old-timers in the Senate looked on
with something akin to amaZement
while Huey Long went about the task
of filibustering against the bill.
And the thing that seemed to aston
ish them most was the way the king
fish" nlaneuvered and manipulated the
rules of the Senate to his advantage
Senate rules are tricky. Often a
Senator supposed to have wide knowl-
edge Of them finds himself helpless
when colleague more skillful or OBJ
servant springs one on him. More than
one Senator has found the floor taken
from MIN IN this manner.
The fact that Long, comparative
newcomer to the Senate, has so ground
ed himself in the knowledge of them
that he was able to filibuster to his
hearts content while Senators with
years of experience were trying to pick
him off was regarded as little short
of remarkable.
Almost every known method of haz-
ing a Senator was tried out on the
irrepressible Louisianan during his fill
buster. But he refused to be hazed
A good example of how well he has
mastered the rules of the Senate came
on the second day of his filibuster
when he demanded that the Senate take
up the regular order of business, hop
ing that he could force a return tc
consideration Of deficiency appropria-
ton bill which had displaced tempo
rarily the Glass banking bill. 1t looked
as If he had slipped up.
His demand brought back before the
Senate the Glass bill, just what he
didn't want. He rallied quickly, how
ever, and managed to hold the floor by
devious ways all afternoon.
