Inspections OF Harness Now May

Now that winter has practically
departed farmers will soon be bus
lily engaged in preparing the farm
grounds for summer crops. Now is
an ideal time for farmers to care

spection at this time will save many
unnecessary delays and possibly
severe accidents later on. The Della
ware Safety Council says that worn
harness, rotten and wired neck
yokes and weak bitches make
wrecks. Tongues, neck yokes and
double trees that have been soaking
and rotting in the mud will break
easily and should be replaced at the
very beginning of the farm season.

lecture by Thomas Dixon, disting-
uished author and orator will be
given under the direction of the
Senior Glass of the Milford High
School at the high school auditor
ium on Wednesday, April S, at p.

Before writing his first novel. Mr..

most lecturer of the nation.
Silent in his library for a quarter
of century, he now returns to this
work with an inspiring message
which ne speaks with fire, force,
an eloquence that holds an audience
in a spell.
The growing threat of radicalism
against the future of America he
handles without gloves. reaffirmins
with passionate conviction our own

ment of Soviet Russia.
An evening Of inspired thought,

MONEY in SCHO ~
SEEN AS WORK AZ
p. S. du POnt Writes Gov.
Buck Project Would
Benefit Many.

A $2,500,000 school building pro-
gram would furnish work for arti-
sans and laborers in Delaware to
the amount of at least $1,0O0,000,
Pierre s. du Pont states in a letter
to Governor Buck, regarding the
need of a new Wilmington High
School and commenting on the gem
eral financial situation of the State.
Such program, Mr.. DUPONT
states, would relieve the unemploy-
ment situation in the State and
would avoid further State appropri-
alton TO that extent.
Mr.. du Pont not only discusses
the situation at the Wilmington
High School but also the State bud
get as it was submitted by the Gov
ernor to the General Assembly and
he develops the new forecast from
these figures in the light of more
recent developments.
Regarding Delaware's highway
system, Mr.. du Pont writes that the
State is more fortunate in having
system that is self-sustaining and
he urges that no tampering be done
with this ideal condition by divert
ing highway revenue to other pur-
poses."
Taxes for carrying on the prin-
cipal work of the State in the future
need not be increased, Mr.. du Pont
writes, as developments already
made give assurance that compare
lively small further capital expend-
itures will be necessary. t
One of the outstanding para
graphs in Mr. du Points letter is:
Delaware has reached a most
enviable financial position. It
should be our endeayor to safeguard
this position by defending most rig
Orously its chief support; namely,
The policy of allotting definite reye-
nue. for. definite purposes"
Mr.. DUPONT also recommends that
the entire education system of the
State be under one head.

Delaware Democrats might as

cessity of patience in the matter of

all signs point to the probability Of
further delay in the welding of the
axe on Republican incumbents of
Offices and jobs destined eventually
for followers of the Roosevelt

Congressman Wilbur l.. Adams, of
Wilmington, the lone Democrat in
Congress from Delaware in recent
interview said that at this time he is
giving little thought to the question
of patronage, realizing, in common
with all Democratic members, that
i. is idle to expect to make any
headway until the administration
pauses in its huge emergency pro-
gram of legislation to indicate what
policy is to be followed in the filling

some quarters that the administra-
tion may indeed permit many in

that the hands of Congressman are
practically tied.

by the district superintendents, in

activities and also legalization of
