Although noncommittal,
Miss Perkins and the union
executive committee, headed
by Mike Tighe, Pittsburgh,
appeared optimistic.
Government observers also saw
storm clouds lifting and expressed
the belief settlement was i'm

1t was conceded the strike would
be called off if the Iron and Steel
Institute, the operators organiza-
ton, accepted the union proposal.
The institute was reported meet
ing in New York today, presumably
to consider the offer.
The plan differs slightly from one
proposed by the recovery admins
tration ten days ago and accepted
by the steel barons. Also it fol-
lows closely provisions of the newly
enacted federal labor disputes reSo-
luton.
William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor and
spokesman for the union executive
committee, appeared enthusiastic.
He said that even though the oper-
ators rejected the plan, they still
would have to abide by the new fed
eral setup.
I'VE are not threatening STRIKE"
he said, although the union offer
was in the form of an ultimatum.

want every one to have a clear

BILL TO SHIFT STATE FUNDS
Transfer of $385,OO0 Would More
Than Meet Expenses of Budget

AS a means of retaining the
solvency of the general fund be-
tween March 1 and June 80, which
fund is now facing a deficit of
$3.50, 309.89 at the end of the cur
rent fiscal year, Governor c. Doug
lass Buck has transmitted to the
House two bills designed to carry
out suggestion he made in his
special message to the General As
sembly last week to accomplish
this end. One Of them would pro-
vide that the redemption of county
aid highway bonds from April /,
1884, to June 80, 1885, which is
now an obligation Of the sinking
fund made so by legislative action,
be transferred to the State High
way Department. This. it is esti-
mated would release about $685.
900 for transfer to the general
fund, which would be more than
enough to meet the expenses of
the general budget for the re-
mainder of this fiscal year, June

consist of first liens on crops, live
stock or other personal property
on which a lien, or chattel mort
gage may be taken to secure the
loan adequately. The lien may be
taken on property already in the
possession of the borrower, or to
be purchased with the money bor-
rowed. 1t is not intended that
production loans shall be secured
principally by mortgages on real
estate. Where this type of secur-
ity is taken it will be regarded
only as additional collateral. The
charges on production loans will
be as low as possible in keeping
with business credit A small fee
is charged to inspect the property
offered as security by the appIi-
cant, but usually no charge will be
made for inspection if the loan is
not granted.

OUR SMYRNA SCHOOLS

The bids for building addi-
tions and remodelling the
Smyrna High School Building
to the extent of 100000 are
in and as soon as the bids are
gone over the contract will be
awarded. Supt. Schantz and
the Building Commission are
anxious to get started as
early next month as possible.
The plans which call for the
dismantling of the old school
building and the building of
more additions along the
South Street front, call for a
rOOmier and more command
ing edifice and with the extra
class rooms and recitation
halls to be provided, Smyrna
will have one Of the best
school plants of its kind to be
found in the State. 1t is
something to look forward
to. Besides the need it will
fulfill for Smyrna Special
School District, the building
work will give employment to
many who are in need of jobs.
We wish Supt. Schantz and
the Commission well.

of January until now, trappers
have been able to catch only a few
muskrats due to the freeze. He
said the extension of time would
give the trappers an opportunity
to do a little more trapping after
the ice melts off the marshes. SEN
ator VanSant argued that passage
of such a bill would be a step in a
dangerous direction, because next
year there may be shortage of
muskrats, as a result of the extern
sion of the season. He contended
it would be false economy to allow
the trappers an extension of time
and thus destroy what few breed
ers there are in the State. Repre-
sentative Cleaver replied that as
far as he is concerned, he will
make his trappers quit March 10.
He pointed out, however, that many
of the inland type of marshes were
protected by the storms. He show
ed, further, that many trappers
had no opportunity to go over
their marshes. He argued that
any trapper who does not want to
take care of his own marshes, does
not deserve to have the muskrats.
He informed the Senate that he has
been engaged in trapping musk
rats since he was Is years old.
Senator Keith said it seemed to
him that if this bill was passed, it
would be an incentive for others to
make similar requests on other
types of game. He pointed out
that if that occurs, the Legislature
will be delayed in reaching a pub
lie works program. President Pro
TEN Simonton asked Representa-
tive Cleaver if he knew what the
Fish and Game Commission thinks
of the bill. Mr.. Cleaver replied
that Chief State Game Warden
Clarence S. Foster told him he
thought the measure was entirely
wrong. Senator Latchum con-
tended that passage of the bill
would enable trappers to make
some money so that they may pay
their various debts, such as taxes
and mortgage interest. He argued
depriving them of this op-
after the handicaps they
have suffered from the weather.
The vote on the bill follows: Yeas
Cannon, Davis, Frasher,
Glenn, Hart, Latchum, McCabe,
and Wharton, 9.

AN OFFICERS DUTY

1t pays for an officer to keep
within bounds when he makes
an arrest and not become
brutal. The Kent County
Court in session at Dover,
weighed the evidence against
former Chief of Police James
A. Selvy of Dover, seriously
and rendered a verdict
against the officer and fined
him $500 which he paid. The
preponderance Of evidence
seemed to be against Selvy,
though he felt he was doing
his duty. Our State and
municipalities want officers to
be fearless and enforce the
law but will not stand for
brutality. The Court showed
this by making an example
of it.
