DELAWARE DAY AN
ANNUAL OCCURRENCE

The proclamation issued by
Governor. Buck designating
December seventh as a day for
special observance is direct
outcome of a movement
launched by E. Paul Burkhol-
der and the Georgetown Ro-
tary Club last May. After Mr..
Burkholder suggested the idea
to the club, steps were imme-
diately taken to have petitions
circulated throughout the
state advocating the plan. Eff
forts were also put forth to
secure the endorsement and
cooperation of other organiza-
tions.
More than six thousand citi-
zens signed the petition. The
movement was endorsed by the
Delaware Citizens Associa-
tion, the Delaware Education
Association, the Daughters of
the American Revolution, the
State Federation of Women's
Clubs, and the American Le-
gion. The petition and endor-
sements were presented to
Governor Buck several weeks
ago by a committee of the
Georgetown Rotary Club COM
posed by E. Paul Burkholder,
Ben Ableman, George S. Will
liams and DR.. Joseph B. Wap-
les. The same day a resolu-
tion was drawn up and pres
ented to the Legislature by
Speaker Thomas ]. Robinson.
The Resolution passed the
House and Senate and was ap-
proved by the Governor. This
action by the Legislature
makes the observance an an
nual affair. What occurred on
December seventh 1887 gives
Delaware rightful claim to be-
ing the first State in the Union

MRS.sslEDAVIS
GIVEN EN{,EGO GOLD
"Aunt Sally"v vHOnOred By
Avenue Methodist Epis-
cOpal Church School.

At a session of the Avenue Meth
odist Episcopal Church School on
last Sunday morning, Mrs. Sallie r.
Davis, better known to the Avenue
Methodists as well as to the COM
munity as "Aunt Sallie" was pre-
sented with a purse of gold on the
occasion of her leaving Milford for
the winter. The superintendent, Mr..
G. Roland Messick president at the
session and after the worship period
and some suitable Introductory re-
marks, called on Mr.. M. Haswell
Pierce to present the purse. Mr..
Pierce a former superintendent of
the school called attention to the
fact that when he was a small boy
he had attended the primary depart
ment over which Mrs. Davis had
supervision for Al years, and that
his children had attended the same
department. He called the names
of numerous people in the audience
who had been taught by Mrs. Davis,
and marshalled the names of wo-
men and men in important positions
at home and abroad, whom he con-
sidered as her jewels.
DR.. Herson called attention to the
wonderful usefulness of her life, to
her love for the Avenue Church, to
her loyalty to the long line of ex-
cellent ministers, and hoped that
this leave of absence granted her
for a winter vacation would restore
her health, so that when the SPRING
time came she would be in her ac-
customed place.
Mrs. Davis sweetly and feelingly
responded in a few we'll chosen
words, expressing her love for this
dear church, its many organiza-
tions, and particularly the school,
and wishing Gods blessing upon all
present,

This is what has given the English the
impression that nothing has changed.
The same phenomenon can also be OBJ
served in other countries where cur
rency deprecated at the same time.
As far as England is concerned, how
ever, there is special factor which We
must not fail to notice. England is
the largest importer in the world; there
fore, II the purchasing power of her
money diminishes the demand for world
products diminishes at the same time
and In such q way that the fall Of the
pound acts As . cause Of deflation. It
has been observed at various times that
the fall of the pound brought about a
fall In the price Of cotton. We should
not regard the pound, which is an in
ternational money, IN the SAND light
IS, for example. we regard the franc,
which Is q national money.
T. therefore develops from what we
have said that for the English the prob
lem of their currency is not entirely.
not even principally, monetary prob
lem; 1t is commercial problem. For
England the desirable level for the
pound will be one which viii permit
British industry to uphold its suprem-
acy In the international markets. We
are touching here the crux Of the ques-
ton, which Is the cost Of English pro-
ductiou g effected BY the level Of her
money.

troll Of the administration of relief in
any State or States where in his judg-
ment more effective and efficient CO.
operation between the State and Fed

in carrying out the purposes Of the
relief act.
The appointment Of Harry L. Hop
kins, former relief administrator of the
State Of New York, to the new Fed
eral post Of Federal relief administrator
has already oeen made In selecting
Mr. Hopkins, President Roosevelt took
into consideration a fact all to often
forgotten-that in dealing with human
problems trained and experienced So
cial engineers are needed. Mr. Hop
kins Is one Of these.
Experience in social service work
these days has been found to be worth
something In dollars and cents and also
In service. There are many striking il
Illustrations of what this experience will
do. In Worcester, Mass, 200 families
on relief were recently turned over by
the Public Welfare Department Of the
city to a special relief service bureau
financed by the Community Chest and
stated by trained case workers paid by
the Chest. Through this arrangement
it was possible to make plans for ~ of
the 200 families which made relief en-
tirely unnecessary and resulted in a saw
ing In expenditures Of 20 per cent.
Relief Sums Vary.
In some States the proportion of
people receiving relief varies from as
low as 10 per cent to as high as 90
per cent of the population in the city
or county. Such a discrepancy Is not

the Government, In selecting an expert
in social service work for its representa-
tive in the Federal partnership, had
made a move which should result in
wise and discriminating economy OF
public money and at the same time
bring the greatest good to our needy
unemployed.
We who are the John and Jane Does
of America may have felt when We
read of the entrance Of the Federal
Government into the relief field that
there was little left for us to do. Moth
ing could be further from the truth.
The Federal government, the States
and the municipalities realize that it is
only by the inclusion o. the private CIV
er in this partnership and a pooling
Of resources that the nations welfare
problem can be solved
As President Roosevelt stated in sign
ing the relief bill:
Il want to make it very clear to
citizens in every community that the
bill I have just signed authorizing an
appropriation of $500, 000. 900 of Federal
funds for unemployment relief. does
not absolve States and local communi-
ties of their responsibility to see that
the necessities of life are assured their
citizens who are in destitute circum-
stances.
THE bill. in effect, is a challenge to
governors, legislators and local officials
to stimulate their own efforts to pro-
vide for their own citizens In need.
For these and other good reasons,
citizens who are able should voluntarily

No matter what Englishman you talk
to, you perceive at once that he has
become accustomed to considering SAL
aries, on one side, and fiscal charges,
on the other. as together constituting
an element that Is not to be modified

Wage Level Defended.
The lowering of wages could not be
suggested; every one would oppose that.
At the same time, the national budget
is fixed at q high level, and for all
practical purposes the British have re-
nounced lowering 1t in any substantial
fashion. 9t,
In the British system, there Is some
thing So very rigid, something so din
cult to change, that under these condi-
tons 1t seems almost impossible to
tighten the weight Of the cost Of pro-
duction by any normal means. This
being the case. the only possible solu-
ton Is to depreciate the money and
thus obtain relief surreptitiously. Nom
inally salaries would remain the same,
though they would be expressed In
money of less value; and as long Is
prices did not mount, the wage Garner
would not perceive that his wages had
been diminished.
Under this system the relation Of
money to gold is not 50 important as its
relation to the fixed and frozen salaries

AUTHOR of America Comes of Age"

Author OF America comes OF age.
TT IS an interesting moment for TAX
ing a look at England; the economic
conference in session at London
i forces the Englishman, whether he
likes It or not, to take a positive
stand on the basic questions: The
sterilization Of currencies, price levels,
the cost Of production and the condi-
lions Ct international competition.
Nearly two years have gone by since
the fall Of the pound sterling, and We
now are able to see, In the proper
perspective, both the effect Of its fall
on price levels and the attitude OF
British opinion on the monetary
problem,
As to prices, 1t Is easy to verify the
fact that they have fallen, contrary to
what every one expected. It Is not only
wholesale prices that have behaved in
this manner, but retail as well; and
they have dropped to such an extent
that the internal purchasing power Of
the pound has increased rather than
diminished
An Englishman, If he does not leave
England, does not realize that his ma
tional money has undergone an impor-
tant change in its very nature; q
stranger, after living short period
in Britain, does not realize it either,
provided that all his funds have been
exchanged for English money. We can
even 60 further: It would be just as
difficult for an Englishman who
travels far and wide to notice that
anything has happened, because prices
have fallen everywhere, and the crisis
has made hotel accommodations so
reasonable that he certainly does not
have to spend any more pounds sterling
than formerly.
The same soundness Is to be found
in salaries: They have been lessened
scarcely at all, and their nominal level
remains the same-which means that
with the fall in prices the actual salary
of the English workman Is worth more
than before. When the worker Is en-
ployed he has no reason to complain.
Price Level Stays Put.
Both our reason and our experience
have taught us that prices mount when
money declines, and have taught US
also that . protective tariff raises the
cost Of living. But IN England this
double proposition has not come true
at least, up to the present-for in spite
Of a depressed money and fairly high
tariff, the general level Of prices has
rot budged.
However, II you reflect . little this
situation, which seems so paradoxical,
can be explained. The world level Of
prices in terms Of gold fell at the same
time the pound sterling deprecated,
and In about the same measure; the
rise that should have been produced In
England was compensated Tor BY the
general fan produced everywhere, and IN
such . way that the situation result
ed in . sort Of general equalization.
