Of Bailey, at Laurel. he was given

CLOGGING OF INDIAN
RIVER INLET SERIOUS

Mosquitoes from the marshes sur
rounding RehobOth and Indian River
Bays, which are in a food condition
since the recent heavy rains, may
prove a more or less serious bother
to Rehoboth residents and visitors
during the next week or ten days,
judging from reports gained from
scientific trap collections in that
section, it was announced recently
at the control headquarters in
Lewes.
The elogging in recent years, of
Indian River Inlet, connecting these
extensive waterways with the At
lantic Ocean, at a point approx
mstely seven miles below RehOboth,
has resulted in the elimination Of a
tide range sufficient to flush these
marshes; each serious rain leaves
the adjacent marsh lands covered
with stagnant sheets of water in
which mosquitoes breed prOlificly.
The condition has proven a serious
problem to control authorities.
Sporting, sea food, agricultural,
numbering, shipping and mosquito
control interests have been waging
a campaign during the last nineteen A.,
months to secure moneys to perma-
nently open the inlet, and the pro- !
iect is now in the hands Of the Dis
trict Engineers Office; recently this
Office requested that local business
interests supply them with data and
estimates of business expansions
which might result from the perma-
nent reopening Of the inlet, which at
bne time furnished liVelihoods to
thousands of persons in Sussex and
southern Kent counties, and is esti-
mated to have brought approximate
ly S620,O00 worth Of annual income
to the section.
Mosquito control work has been
almost entirely a matter Of INSTALL
ing bitches to eliminate sheets and
pools Of stagnant water wherein
might find breeding
places, or through which fish might
swim to eat the larvae. Due to ex-
,essive cost, and lack Of permanent
y. spraying has been resorted to in
,nly the rarest instances.
Until Indian River Inlet is perma-
lently maintained at a size sufficient
o furnish these bays with a tide
,ange that will completely flush the
MARSHES, say control
authorities, satisfactory mosquito
control cannot be attained in this
ection.

Complaints are being made by
many of the citizens on Walnut

about the manholes and cutters not
being properly attended to. Where
the manholes exist, the odOr is some
