GOVERNMENT TO CALL HALT ON NEW PWA JOBS
Governor Troy Rec elves Word that No More Proj-

Official confirmation of the item printed in The Empire last week that a halt was being called on new applications for Public Works Administration funds for munich palities was received yesterday by Gov. John w. Troy from Secre- tary of the Interior Harold l.. Ickes.
 The communication to Governor Troy said in part:
 We have now in this office ana in the offices of the State Engin- eers more projects than we can possibly hope to get money for. No more projects should be accept ed. It would be unfair to permit municipalities to spend money ln preparation of projects when there will be practically no chance or the Government being able to fi- nance them.
 twill you please send out word that no further projects VIII DC considered?"

COUNCIL PLACES CONTRACT TO
COMPLETE MAIN STREET SEWER

At a recent meeting of Smyrna
Town Council, it was voted to
award the contract to George G.
Lynch, Dover, to complete the sew
er at the south end of Main Street
and the Boulevard. George &
Lynch put force of men on the
job yesterday and promise to COM
plete the work as expeditely as
possible, expecting at least to have
south Main Street trench, from
Hamilton's Lane to Mill Street fill
ed in and graded by tomorrow,
Friday, 50 that said street can be
opened to traffic for the weekend.
Town Council had originally start
ed to do this sewer work under the
offer made by the CWA which or
ganization was to be given finan-
cial assistance by the Federal Gov
ernment. This work, slow by rea-
son of the fact they were allowed
a limited number of work hours a
week, had been hanging fire. for
weeks and since Federal aid was
withdrawn and all hope of getting
funds was lost, Council was COM

PEELED to take over this job and
complete it with town funds. I'm
der the circumstances it was deem
ed best to put the completion of
this sewer contract out at bids
with the result that George &
Lynch, Dover, was given the con-
tract AS matters stand, it will
take as much work to repair the
cave-in to the trenches and other
repairs, as they have already ex-
pended on the job, proving that the
Town of Smyrna would have been
better off if they had never fooled
with the CWA. BY reason of the
delay, Council has received the blunt
of the abuse from residents of
south Main Street whose patience
has been worn threadbare" by the
shutting off of south Main Street
traffic. Council, in the meantime,
has been exhausting every effort to
get CWA assistance but to no
avail. George & Lynch are now
completing the job which will cost
the Town of Smyrna approx
mately $4,000.

WAR ON ILLICIT
STILLS is PLAN
Delaware In Area For a Set
up to ROut the Bootleg
ger of His Job
FEDERAL STATE TEST

Delaware, Eastern Pennsylvania,
and New Jersey are to become a
laboratory to test a model plan
to stop bootlegging and other
liquor law violations. The model
scheme was agreed on Tuesday in
Philadelphia at a conference at
tended by Leon A Crossen, super
visor of industrial alcohol; John d.
Pennington, head of the regulative
investigating division, and DIR.
Ambrose Hunsberger, head of the
permit division. It will be set up
within week. A greater force of
agents than was in the field during
prohibition will operate in this area
under the model set-up. State,
county and local officials will be
asked to cooperate. The illicit rum
traffic still is a great problem in
the State, with bootleggers supply
ing 40 per cent of the hard drink
trade, officials of the Delaware
Liquor Commission declare. In
support of this, the commission
recently turned over to Federal
authorities some 1900 gallons Of
seized alcohol and liquors. Some
of the alcohol being sold by boot
leggers is regarded from a chem
lists viewpoint, as good stuff. F."
Most of the alcohol is being i'm
ported here from northern New
Jersey and is being sold at a price
ranging form so to rs cents a
quart, almost one-half Of the pre-
vailing alcohol price per quart dur
ing prohibition. Very little beer is
being handled in speakeasies be
cause of its bulk and because of
the low profits. In the average
speakeasy in Delaware, liquor is
being sold by the drink for %
cents a drink, a small highban %
and 80 cents and where there is
beer, it is sold at 25 cents bottle
or Is cents a small glass. The
speakeasy trade is principally af-
ter midnight when the legitimate
places close. 1t is said that a
number of licensed places may
have difficulty in obtaining a re-
newal for 1934-1935 because of
their illicit traffic. Federal agents
of the Internal Bureau of Indus
trial Alcohol in this district are
not paying as much attention to
the small speakeasy as they are to
the problem of cutting off the sup
ply coming into the State.

dents of Wilmington and New Cas-
tie county would be fed. 1t was
pointed out that 100000 could be
diverted from funds in the New

eral aid would also be obtained
and also contributions from citi-
zens to create a fund of $500, 900.
Federal aid was assured when the
