County for the State Police, said
the tire marks gave no indication
of a tire blowout having caused
the crash. But they pointed out
this was no sure indication of how
fast the car actually was travelling
at the time of the crash. They
explained that frequently the first
jar of an automobile accident will
cause the instrument to revolve
either to a high or low figure.
Lieutenant Elderkin, who directed
the moving of the wrecked car to
a safe distance from the highway,
called it the worse wreck he has
ever seen in an automobile 'fix-ob-
ject" crash. The car was so badly
wrecked it could not be towed by
a regular towing car on the high
way. Relatives of the dead were
notified by Maryland State Police,
who were quickly informed over
radio by the Delaware police.
feelings name was learned from
his operators license. The car was
owned by Dryden.

telephoned from a nearby farm
house, said the car was burning

encies.
Four-Way Lights Proposed
Mr.. Mack suggested that traffic
lights at dangerous intersections,
where great caution is required,
be lighted on all four sides. He re-
ferred to crossing lights at the
Middletown school which continu-
ally flash red, so that drivers, no
matter which road they are on,
will stop before crossing. Placing
greater dependence on police offic-
ers in judging the condition of a
driver arrested for driving while
drunk was urged by Superintend-
ent Kavanaugh. Often, the police
superintendent said, police officer
is in a much better position to tell
when a man is intoxicated than a
physician, who dislikes to appear
in court. Agreeing with the revo-
cation proposal as the best way to
curb reckless drivers, Mayor J..
Wallace Woodford of Dover sug-
gested increasing the speed limit to
so or 55 miles an hour. Then, he
said, many drivers, going little
faster than allowed but safely,
would not regard themselves as
breaking the law and would facil-
itate the movement of traffic in the
safe areas. He commented that
this would lessen congestion and
observed that often the slow driver
is the one responsible for accidents.
Slower Night Speed Urged
A 90-day license revocation for
first offense Of reckless driving was
recommended by Mr.. Jackson, who
has been president of the safety
council since August /. Second
offense would be six months, and
third offense, revocation for a long
er period and until the offender has
passed another driving test. Mr..
Jackson. suggested a speed limit Of
so miles on the open roads in the
day and lesser speed at night.
Mr.. Wells declared that there are
no better police in the nation than
Delaware's, but that they are
handicapped in many respects from
doing their whole duty as police
officers. He mentioned reluctance
of physicians to examine drivers
arrested for being drunk.

Townsend, Aug. 10-Under the

Phillips Packing Company, with
headquarters at Cambridge, Md,
the Townsend cannery expected to
begin operations this week. The
manager, Frank Sylvester, has had
the entire equipment made ready
for a steady run this season. The
company has about 300 acres of
sugar corn under contract. This
will give employment to about 80
or 80 workers. Several changes
have been made at the plant, one
being the office which was moved
from the east side of the yard to
a point close to the canning house.
The plant has been a great help to
the community for a number of
years.
The tomato market has shown a
better trend the past week and big
shipments are being made to the
city markets, and finally reach the
city canning houses. The market
held to so cents per basket all day
