The Republican Party Joined di-

peal TO the youth Of the country for

the Constitution.
In a direct reply to President
ROosevelt's radio call to a new gen.
Grafton of voters for a united at
tack upon the "Old order" Repre-
sentative Smell, the Republican lead
er of the House, asked that they ac-
cept the challenge.
ut is not a question of what is
best for the Republican Party, but of
what is best for America" he said
in a radio address released through
the Republican National Committee.
1T is not a question of whether
the New Deal and this AdministIa-
tion have shamelessly repudiated
the definite pledges Of the last DEM
Ocratic National Convention, and in
the house of it's leader. betrayed the
principles and traditions of. the DEM
Ocratic Party.
THAT is a question solely for de-
termination by the next Democratic
National Convention. The real aues-
tion is whether or not the new eco
nomic system which the New Deal
and the present Administration is
offering as a substitute for the old
will better serve the real interests
of the American people than the one
they are asked to discard"

Mrs. Lillian E. Cullen, on the

during the past four years by funds
given by Mrs. Henry B. Thompson,
Mrs. Pierre S. DUPONT and Mrs.

Mr.. Robinson, who has judged the
contests during the past three years.
said Wednesday night he had noted
a marked improvement in the ap-
pearances of hundreds Of private
properties and commercial stands
along the highway. He said he felt
this improvement TO be in no small |
part due TO the contests.
Mr. Robinson said it had been a
task to decide the winners
due to the many splendid places to I
select from in all three counties. He
said in some instances prize winners
of past years probably again rated
prizes this year. but that it had been (
felt in starting the contest that it
would be unwise to give prizes to
the same persons two years in sue
cession.
One of the big aims of the annual |
contests, Mr.. Robinson said. is to 4
assist not only in having people
beautify and brighten up their
homes, lawns. or places of business,
but to secure the cooperation of the
public generally in the elimination

BALANCE
in GENERALFLJND
lay Have To Borrow
From Highway And
School Accounts Later.

State Auditor J. Henry Hazel at
Dover on Monday said there was a
balance of $1S5, ,4S3.63 in the gen
eral fund Of the State, on July 81.
While this is a fairly strong bal
ance, Mr.. Hazel said, the State may
have to make use of the authorize
tiOn given by the last General As
sembly to borrow money from
either the State Highway Fund or
the school fund at some time in the
near future.
Revenues anticipated for the gem
eral fund, Mr.. Hazel said, are some
times tardy in coming in and at
other times delinquent to the extent
that loans must be made temporaT-
lily. While not certain, he said, at
the end of September. if revenues
are lax in collection, it may be nee
essary to accept the transfer of
money from the other two funds
Altogether $1.OO0.O00 may
be borrowed, S60O,O0O from the high
way fund, and 100000 from the
school fund. The loans II called for
will be turned over to the general
fund in proportionate allOtments at
different periods during the next two
years.
Mr.. Hazel in referring to the con-
ditiOn Of the general fund, said that
where a dehcit had been anticipated
at the close of the last fiscal year.
June 80. due to receipt Of unexpect-
81 ,-o,,en,ros from the State fotiOr
and from inheritance
tax sources, the balance was 1885,
142.64 at that time.

I'VE shall expect everyone to

this source of complaint from his

not apply to every place in the

Since the liquor control act has

hut in the future will not be dis
posed to look with favor upon ex-
cuses based upon lack Of knowledge
or lack of understanding Of the law.

nation concerning the exact mean
ing of any section Of the law the
invites discussion and
will give an explanation or issue a
ruling in order to make clear the
point in question.

MILLSBORO LEADS
STATE IN SANITATION
Has COOperated with Health Board
To Eliminate Insanitary Conditions

Millsboro is leading Delaware in
community sanitation, and It is ex-
pected by September 1 that It will
be the first 100% sanatized town in
the State, according to Harry E..
Tunnel, who is in charge of the
Sussex county community sanitation
work being carried on by the State
Board of Health.
Insanitary privies have long been
a source of contagiOn, and a drive to
eliminate these and replace them
with sanitary structures was started
a year ago under the Civil Works
Administration.
Since the discontinuance Of all
CWA projects, the town of MillsborO
has cooperated with the State Board
Of Health by setting up a small re-
vOlving fund to enable the low in
come groups TO pay for these Inn
prOvements over a period Of time. It
has been the procedure for a group
Of wOrkmen to remodel the existin@
insanitary structure into the type Of
sanitary privy advocated by health
authorities, and the cost of labor and
necessary new materials have been
billed TO the property owner by the
town council; If he is unable to inn
mediately reimburse the council, ar
Tangements are made for time pay
ment
Many diseases, including typhoid,
enteritls and diarrhea are known to
be spread from Improperly con- /
structed and maintained privies.
