Church street was widened and re-
constructed last year. In the fu-
ture, if traffic on this highway is
heavy, construction of a new Third
street bridge may be necessary. as
it will be the only obstacle for
rapid transit through traffic by this
route. While there is already a
fairly good road connecting Rogers
Corner on the DUPONT Boulevard
with South Wilmington, il cannot
be considered a major alternative
route through the city, it was
pointed out. For one thing, i is
not wide enough, and for another,
Head street is not in the best con-
dition. The present 20-foot con-
crete road from Rogers Corner to
the city line will be doubled and
Heald street will be improved,
probably with the cooperation of
the city, Mr.. Mack said. Develop
ment of this route will be a major
step in the program to relieve the
congestion of traffic at Front and
Market streets, a situation which
has long attracted the attention of
road engineers and which led to
the project for a cutoff along
Water street south of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad tracks. The de-
partment's program will include
several other important projects in
the northern end of the State, Mr.
Mack said, but announcement of
most of these must await Federal
approval. One Of the principal
things, however, will be completion
Of the dual highway on the Glas-
gov road from its present stage,
to the Maryland State line, he said.
Several projects viii be undertaken

Townsend, Oct. 3-The tomato
market has shown a poor demand
and prevailing prices have been low
and discouraging to growers. While
the open market has held at about
Is cents per basket, the canneries
as per contract are paying slight
ly better price, these outlets being
heavily used to clear out the crop
before a frost comes. The demand
for boat shipments has not been as
general as last year, but some of
the crop has been trucked away to
the cities and shipments to Balti-
more, Md, by rail.
The poultry business has receiv-
ed quite boost by the advancing
prices in the egg market. With
the eggs still climbing in price the
buyers are more eager to handle
all they can find and some feel the
price may continue to the high
mark of former years.

left Hampton early last week to
be present at and have part in the
Inauguration of DR.. Frederick

executive head of Tuskegee.
Hampton was well represented

Frissell carried to the inaugural
exercises at that time the interest
of DR.. Booker Washington's alma
mater in its second alumnus to be
called to the leadership of the
great school in Tuskegee. Presi-
dent Howe by his presence contin-
ded unbroken the tradition of care
which Hampton has for its most
famous off-shoot.
President Howe was accompan-
led by the Director of the Hamp-
ton Institute Trade School, Will
fred E. Carter; Captain Lorenzo
c. White, in charge of the Record
Office; and by Chief Accountant
