ROAD AROUND
DOVER IN PLAN
One of Four Road Projects To
Be Begun This Fall and
Winter-Other Roads
ALL FEDERAL AID JOBS

Contracts for four projects total
ing eight and half miles of con-
crete paving will be awarded by
the State Highway Department on
September 10. The work will be
done under the new Federal road
appropriations passed by the last
Congress under the Hayden-Cart-
wright Act The Federal appro-
priations are contingent upon the
State matching the amount and
also upon the State using its gaso-
line taxes or motor vehicle income
for no other purpose except the
building of roads. Delaware has
always followed the latter policy
and therefore had no difficulty in
qualifying for the Federal appro-
priations. One contract will be for
a cutoff at Chestnut street in New
Castle which will complete a by
pass from the New Castle Penns-
vile ferry line without sending
traffic through the buster streets of
the town. Another contract offer
ed is a continuation from Glasgow
station to Bear of the dual high
way on Route 40, stretch of a lit
tie more than three miles. The
road from the Police Station at
north of Dover to the kits Ham
mock or Bay road east of the cap
ital, a stretch of concrete laid sew
eral years ago, and another project
from Little Heaven on Route 113
below Magnolia connecting with
said Bay Road will give complete
bypass 20 feet wide which will cut
out entirely the traffic between
Bowers Beach road and Dover and
which will probably be used exten-
sively when completed, giving a
much better route to Milford and
Rehoboth. These projects are be-
ing hurried to provide work for the
unemployed during the Fall and
early Winter and will use several
hundred men, all of whom must
file for employment at the Nation
al Re-Emp1oyment offices at Sixth
and King streets in Wilmington or
at the County Office at Dover.

forced eight-hour rests. All driv-

OPPOSE TRAIN
SERVICE SLASH
Say Dropping of Two Trains
on d. Nj. & V. Affects the
Entire Peninsula
HAMPER MAIL SERVICE

Efforts on the part of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company to
abandon the morning train leaving
Franklin City, Va, at 5.33 for Phil
adelphia, and the afternoon train
leaving Philadelphia and reaching
Georgetown about $40 in the ev-
ening are meeting with stiff oppo-
sition on the part of business men
and general public throughout the
entire length of the D. NJ and v.
branch. 1t is contended that the
abandonment of the two trains will
hamper the mail service to Phila-
delphia, Wilmington, Baltimore and
New York, as well as mail from
those cities to points between Har-
rington, Del, and Franklin City,
Va. The places affected would be
Milford, Glendale, Georgetown,
Millsboro, Dagsboro, and Berlin,
Snow Hill, Stockton, and Ocean
City, popular resort, in Maryland.
An attempt was made some
months ago to abandon some of the
trains, but the Maryland Public
Service Commission refused the re
quest, contending that it was det-
riment to business and had bear
ing on the entire Eastern Shore.
Lower Delaware would only have
one train, it is stated, from north
ern points to bring mail and news
papers and that would be between
10 and IL o'clock in the morning
There would be but one train car
rying mail north, it is said, if the
proposed plans are carried out.
This train, it is said, would leave
Georgetown between 2.30 and 4
o'clock.
