RADIOS FOR
POLICE CARS
Bill in Legislature Would
Prove Saving and Be More
Efficient Than Telephone
RESOLUTION SUBMITTED

In compliance with resolution
adopted by the House at the spec
ial session of the Legislature last
Fall, Allen Craig, secretary of the
State Highway Department, Thurs
day transmitted to the House a re-
port showing the cost of telephone
service to the State Police for the
months from July to December, in
elusive, in 1882 was $1373.35 and
for the same period last year, 3d.
GIBBS. The resolution had been
submitted by Representative Rees
who reminded the House that he
had also introduced a bill to APP
propriate $4,000 to equip police
cars with radio sets so they could
keep in touch with headquarters
without the use of the telephone.
He said this radio equipment
would eventually prove a saving to
the State and would be more eff
ficient than the telephone service.
He explained that State Police
while on patrol now have to report
by telephone to headquarters at
regular intervals and it was the
cost of this service that he wanted
to determine to prove his conten-
ton that radio equipped cars
would be more economical. The
report of Mr.. Craig, several mem
bers thought, would bear out this
contention. Representative Nc
Cabe who recently called attention
to the fact that last Fall he had
introduced a resolution asking the
State Temporary Emergency Re
lief Commission for a report on the
amount of relief funds spent for
automobile inspections said he had
received this information from the
commission, the report of which
showed the following expenditures

PRINTING OF
THE BALLOTS
Bill Provides Contracts Must
Be Awarded to Lowest Com
petitive Bidder
OTHER BILLS APPROVED

After several previous attempts
the House Thursday afternoon
succeeded in passing by the unan-
imous vote of the 81 members
present Representative Rees' bill
to require the clerk of the peace in
each of the several counties to
award the contract for the print
ing of ballots and other election
supplies to the lowest bidder after
competitive bids have been receiv-
ed. The proposed act now goes to
the Senate. For violating the law
the penalty provided is a fine from
$1,000 to $4,000, and from six
months to ten years in Jail. Repre-
sentative Bonham introduced bill
that would give the members of
the General Assembly the right to
claim exemption from jury duty if
they so desired. Representative
McCabe called up for final action
Senator Stems bill to amend the
town charter of Dagsboro and the
House passed the measure without
a vote.
Order Bills Paid
The House concurred in the Sen
ate joint resolution authorizing the
payment Of certain bills outstand-
ing against the State. One of
these is for $4,000 Cue G. Marvel,
of Laurel. 1t developed that dur
ing the storm last Summer some
houses in Laurel were washed
away in the flood and Mr.. Marvel
moved them. Governor c. Doug
lass Buck authorized this work
and he gave Mr.. Marvel his word
that if the State did not pay the
bill he, the Governor, would pay it
himself. In urging adoption of the
resolution, Mr.. ReeS declared it
would be unjust and unfairlto per
nit the Governor to meet this
charge. Another item authorized
was for S124 so due the Hortsman
Uniform Company for a flag which
was carried in the inaugural par
ade in Washington last March. A
third was for S89.75 due Buffers,
Inc, of Wilmington, for supplies
for the State Librarian. The last
item was for S3740 due to the
Harrington Hotel in Washington
where the Delaware legislative del
egation to the inauguration last
March made its headquarters. The
House adopted a resolution offered
by Representative McCabe author
izing the committee that placed IN
the House chamber the bronze tab
let on which appear the names OF
all the members, to have added to
the list the names of Representa-
tives Alexander r. Abrahams and
Daniel j. Kelly, both of Whining
ton. This tablet is memorial to
the members of the 104th General
Assembly, the first to occupy the

How Gulls Helped Raid
 Crater Lake Park Mice

Citing the service rendered by the gulls in helping stem the grasshopper plague during the early days of Salt Lake City as a similar example, Chief Ranger David Fl. Canfield Of Crater Lake National park. related recently how a flock of gulls made heavy in. roads on the mouse population Of Wood river valley. in the park. says the Detroit News.
 In this valley lush pastures grow scarcely above the level of the water table during the summer; and during the melting of snows the entire area is in a mild flood condition, Ranger Garfield explained. After the snow had started to melt focks of gulls ap- peared to be unusually busy In the val ley and rangers decided to see what it was that was attracting them.
 Investigation revealed hat the birds were feeding upon mice that were be- ing driven from their winter homes of grass beneath the snow as the wa ter reached the level at which they had taken shelter. the birds bouncing upon the small rodents almost as soon as they appeared from beneath the shallow snow. ii
