UTILITY Bill.
PASSES ON TO
HOUSE FIGHT
. O w e Allies Lose
Close Decision To
F.D.R. In Senate In
Holding Battle

WASHINGTON. June II. R1-An-
other bitter-end fight now confronts
the bill to abolish unnecessary" util-
ity holding companies. The measure,
which passed the senate, Sc TO 80,
late Tuesday after President RooSe-
Welt had interviewed to prevent q
sweeping alteration. dropped We'd
nesday into the hands OF q sharply
divided house commerce committee.
The committee has been struggling
with a companion measure for four
months. When the legislation will
reach the house floor for debate APP
feared highly uncertain.
I'VE will continue TO work as far
as we can. and We ought 70 be able
TO work pretty fast from now on"
was all Chairman Rayburn
D-Texas) would say.
See Smoother Path
Senator Wheeler D-Mont), who
had asserted that the bill would re-
store public confidence shaken by
such events as the insult collapse,
said Of the vote:
Il think this means the end q
the holding company system gen.
orally. Sentiment against holding
companies is building up. This
serves notice that the people are not
going 20 stand for the practices"
Wheeler, who is co-author OF the
legislation with Rayburn, joined
with ether hackers in expressing the
belief that the senate vote would
give the bill a smoother path to the
house.
The abolition feature OF the bill
has drawn most fire. A house SUBJ
comittee has divided, three and
three, between abolition and mere
regulation.
BY the margin OF one vote. the
senate Tuesday turned down an
amendment by Senator Dieterich
D-ilD to eliminate provisions en-
powering the securities commissions
to dissolve or reorganize in 1912 all
utility holding companies 1t found
contrary to public policy"
Confines Activities
Senator Borah R-Tda) succeeded
In amending the bill to make 1t more
drastic. II orders the securities CON-
mission to prevent pyramiding Of
holding companies. No more than
one holding firm could be imposed
on an operating concern.
Senator Clark D-Mo) also sue
ceeded in getting the senate TO alter
the definition Of a gas utility. He
said the change would bring the
Standard Oil Company Of New Jer-
sey and Mellon Gas interests under
the bill.
One section Of the measure Is de-
signed 10 provide machinery TO
break up nationwide holding COM
panieS into "regionally and geogra-
phically integrated systems" They
would be deprived OF control OF all
but one type Of utility, and their ac-
.tivities would be confined to one
section of the country.

Representative On Pork Pro-
cessing Tax to be In Dover


For the information of those far
mers, butchers and retail meat deal
ers who are affected by the process
ing tax which the Federal govern
ment placed on dressed pork over a
year ago In connection with the
corn-hOg allotment program Of the
Agricultural Adjustment Adminis-
tration, arrangements have been
made for a representative of the In
ternal Revenue Department to be at
the Kent county extension office,
second floor Of the PostofIice build
ing in Dover on Friday, January II,
between the hours of 8 a. m. and
4:3O p. m.
As the result of numerous inqhir-
les which have been coming into the
extension office on the various pha-
ses of this dressed pork processing
tax, County Agent Russell E. Wilson
has arranged with the Wilmington
office of the Internal Revenue De-
partment for G. Earl DOnOho, dep
uty collector, to be i'm Dover for one
day each month during the winter
season. The agricultural extension
service is in no way connected with
the Bureau of Internal Revenue, hut
these two Federal departments are
cooperating with each other in en-
deavoring to place this information
on the pork processing tax before
those to whom it may concern. It is
for this reason, therefore, that the
extension service has planned these
monthly conferences, and it is hoped
that number of people in this sec
tiOn of the State will avail themsel-
yes of this opportunity to become
better informed regarding this Fed
erai tax.
When the processing tax first be-
came effective on November 5, 1888,
the rate was so cents per hundred
weight of live hog. On December I.
1888, the rate was increased to 81
per hundredweisht, and the tax was
raised to $3.50 on February !, 1884,
md to 1925 on March /, 1884, where
I will remain until removed or other
wise adjusted by the Federal govern
nent. This tax is payable by the
,erson, association or corporation
Who does the first domestic process
ing of pork
During the months of January,
and March last year
arge number of farmers and meat
ealers contacted Mr. DonohO on the
ays that he was in the extension
flee in Dover. and they expressed
heir appreciation of this service
-hich was decidedly more convent
mt than getting in touch with the
Internal Revenue office in Whining

ON BUYING AT HOME

There is trusm in this simple
statement: The value of the home
town merchant depends upon two
things: first, the quality and guam
tity of the merchandise he has for
lsale; second. the vigor and manner
in which he tells his hometown folks
about H.
People, iB these modern times of
fast motor transportation, are often
hard put TO maintain continuous 10y
atty to their hometown merchants
e. pecially if they live near large
cities. The best way for any local
merchant. TO compete with larger.
centeTs of trade, is 10 forever and
ever keep telling human beings in
his community about his wares.
While this statement, published in
a newspaper that depends upon ad-
vertising for its chief revenue, may
seem prejudiced. it is, nevertheless,
the absolute truth.
Every time the local newspaper
goes to press without the advertise
ments of some local business that
has something to sell. that local
business is not cooperating with
other advertisers in the common ef-
fort 10 keep local citizens buying
"at home"
The individual store that contains |
everything in its particular line. |
stands good chance of getting and
keeping customers. The community !
Of stores that offers the widest range |
OF needed merchandise for its people I
stands the best chance Of getting /
and keeping the trade of its COM
munity and adjacent areas.
Advertising is merely telling about
a thing. Some businesses need to
tell often and loudly. others may get
along with softer voices; it depends
upon the type of business, together
with its quality of management. A
community Of merchants that wins
success is one that stocks its shelves
with what people want and need.
and then tells about it on every pos
sible occasion.
We are your past, present. or fu-
lure customers" declare Mr.. and
