WE ASK EVERY DELAWARE VOTER TO READ 1T

DDS of safeguarding the life and limb of en-
ployes which, in turn, will lessen the employers
liability from industrial accidents. We advo-
cate fair play and cooperation between labor
and industry for the common good of all con-
cerned. We advocate strict enforcement of our
child labor laws, and the existing legislation
safeguarding women from occupational exploit
tstion.
Taxes and Economy
The general welfare of citizens of the state is
best served by an efficient and economic govern
ment, and to this end we advocate gradual re-
duction of all taxes and of certain classes of
license fees, both upon individuals and bust
nesses wherever feasible and possible. We be-
lieve this can be made possible by the careful
budgeting of our state income, by the CONSOLE
dation of overlapping departments of our state
government; by the elimination of wasteful and
needless expenditures and by the adoption of a
'pay- as-you-gO" policy. In short, we advocate
return to the sound economic policies of former
Republican administrations which contributed
so materially to the prosperity of the state, the
efficiency of the government and the welfare of
the people as a whole. We condemn the increase
in political jobs and salaries by the present
Democratic state administration and its applica-
ton of the "spoils system" in the dispensatiOn
of patronage without regard to efficiency or
economy.
We call attention to the reduction of county
taxes under Republican administrations in the
past, and pledge ourselves to further reduction
of these taxes to point commensurate with
the actual needs of the county government in
GLIDING the necessities of emergency relief. We
advocate a reduction of the fees for drivers Ii
censes and for the registration of motor vehicles
to an amount in keeping with the actual cost of
the administration of the motor vehicle law in
this respect. We also advocate a revision of
the existing state dog taxes.

Education

The Republican Party has consistently sup
ported high standards of public education for
all our children. Under Republican leadership
our school system advanced from thirty-second
place to tenth place in education and sixth place
in school buildings in period of approximately
ten years. We pledge ourselves to a continu-
ance of the support which has made this prog
ress possible and which will result in even great
er achievement in the future.
We favor a program of vocational education
for all children Of the state, both colored and
white, who are interested in and are able to
profit from this type of training.
We look with favor upon the study which has
been authorized to formulate sound retire
ment system for teachers and we pledge our
selves to give careful consideration to the
recommendations Of the retirement commission.
The Republican Party pledges itself that the
payment of the regular salary inerements to
teachers shall be resumed and that proper and
adequate salary schedule be established and
maintained for teachers, custodians, clerks, and
other school employees.
We recommend that the State Board of Edu-
cation and other employing boards give prefer
ence to qualified citizens of Delaware in filling
the various positions under their jurisdiction to
the end that insofar as possible every qualified
Delaware teacher and educator may be given
immediate employment.

The Federal Licensing Bill

The enactment of a Federal corporation IL
censing bill is admittedly an objective of the
New Deal Administration. This bill, if enacted
as law, would largely destroy one of the prin-
cipal sources of revenue of the State of Della
ware and would take away large part of the
franchise taxes which are devoted to the build
ing and support of our public school system
and the payment of teachers salaries. We con-
denim this legislation.
