this sad accident is fogotten. and
from week to week other children

motor accidents.
The question arises as to whether
this slaughter is to continue indefin-
itely. Is II not time for the parents
to do something about it? Under
present conditions of speeding and
motor vehicle marauding. young chill
dren must be kept OF the public
streets IL they are not to be exposed
to dangers Of instant death without
punishment of the guilty parties and
without any redress or compensation
for the bereaved parents.
Young children cannot be expected
to realize the dangers of crossing a
street where autos are speeding in
both directions; and it is. therefore.
necessary to keep them away from
such potential dangers unless in
charge of persons who will duly
guard their safety.

More attention Should Be
Given To Fatal Child accidents

Time and again the nation has
been aroused over the kidnapping Of
some baby and the most profound
sympathy felt for the afflicted pa
rents. But it is fair to assume that
every other child is loved and idol
ixed by its parents just as much
as the much publicized kidnapped
baby. Yet. according to the Della
ware Safety Council. when a little
child is run over and left to die on
the city streets. the public reads the
account of the accident and seldom
gives the matter second thought.
Why have the people become so
case hardened to the slaughter Of
children by reckless drivers? They
seem to take It for granted that the
lives OF someone must be sacrificed
for the pleasures evolved from the
motor vehicle. But the question is
brought up regarding the serious
ness OF the accident problem as COM
pared to the kidnapping problem. Is
Il any worse. or as bad IL a child is
kidnapped or taken away tempor-
arily from its parentsi

United States Senator John G..
Townsend, Jr., chairman of the Sem
ate campaign committee, was Joined
at Rehoboth last Friday night by $50
representative Republican men and
women of the State in a rousing.
harmonious prelude to the grand
opening of the party's State cam
paign. The occasion was a dinner
given by the Senator to the party
workers in the Belhaven Hotel.
Senator Townsend, in welcoming
his guests, announced that In a
short time he will leave on an ex-
tended western tour to assist in
electing Republicans to Congress.
He said the sole purpose of the
dinner-meeting was "to bring good
Republicans together so that they
may meet and know each other and
work together in greater harmony
for Republican victory"
Sees Republican Gains
Congress needs from Delaware. he
stressed, "a strong Republican rep
resentative of the people because
there are too few men in Congress
who can say mo- and can conscienti-
ously support constitutional govern
ment"
He reiterated his recent predic-
tion that the Republican Party will
gain from 40 to so seats in the
House Of Representatives and from
five to eight seats in the Senate.
This. he said, was conservative es-
innate.
Former United States Senator
Daniel o. Hastings, national COM
mitteeman, dashed the New Deal and
declared that "only the earned pur-
chasing power of the people will
make for real prosperity and not the
governments donated purchasfng
power"
qIt is the purpose Of the New
Deal" the former Senator said, ito
create an inter-industrial council
for America to govern the activities
Of industry and labor alike"
Hits Political Control
The New Deal, he charged. seeks
to have this council controlled by
a politicaI organization in Washing
ton and to prevent this bureau. or
any of the commissions Of the New
Deal bureaucracy. from being gov
erned "by a constitutional body
which would insure constitutional
