The Blue Hen-State Bird

The Delaware Legislature
in designating unanimously
the Blue Hen as the official
state bird Of Delaware have
rendered a service that meets
with the preponderance of
public opinion in the First
State of America. Selection
of the Blue Hen as the state
bird has more than sentiment
al interest. The fact that the
Blue Hen gained prominence
while the matter was under
consideration has inspired in
tensive study of state history,
particularly that having to do
with Delaware's part in the
War Of the Revolution, when
our soldiers because of their
valor and aggressiveness were
designated Blue Hens Chick
ems. Mr.. 7. Gilpin Massey, a
former resident Of Middle
town and a Delawarean who
obviously has made exhaus-
tive research into Delaware
history, recently cleared up
the question as to whether or
not the Blue Hen is a myth,
declares ''We have done right
well by ourselves under the
emblem of our State Bird and
can see no semblance of a real
reason to desire a change"

VIII Open Season Sunday With
the Port Richmond Club

The Dover Orioles of the East
ern Shore League will swing into
action at Oriole Park, Dover, on
Sunday afternoon when they play
Port Richmond, of Philadelphia, in
their first exhibition game which
will be called at 2.30 o'clock. Man
ager Ray Brubaker will face a
rather stiff task in getting his
Oriole squad in shape for this in
itial contest. Although the squad
was scheduled to start their train
ing program on Monday of this
week, they were delayed two days
by inclement weather. More than
thirty players reported at Dover
for spring training during the past
weekend and included among
them were some with whom the
followers of the Dover Orioles are
familiar. Present indications are
that the Orioles will be able to de-
velop a strong team for the COM
ing Eastern Shore League season.
Among the players who saw ser
vice in the Eastern Shore League
last year, who are members Of the
present squad are Clemence, Logd-
son, Bosser and Muller, Dover
pitchers; Kucinski, a Dover catch
er; Monchak, a Dover infielder;
Reisinger and Locates, Dover out
felders; Schulter, a Pocomoke in
fielder and Vergnani, an Easton
outfielder. Manager Brubaker has
decreed two practice sessions daily
at Oriole Park during the remand
er of the training season.

Warrington, Sept. - With a
historic stream of proclamations
and significant but informal
statements, President Roosevelt
told the world of America s
neutrality today, clamped down
the neutrality acts tight embar-
go on arms shipments to the bell
gerents and disclosed that:
Gaps in the national defense
are soon to be filled by increas-
ing the personnel of the navy,
now at only IS per cent of peace
time stregth, and augmenting
the defensive garrison at the
Panama canal.
A flotilla of World War destroy
ers will be reconditioned to take
up the dramatic task of patroll-
ing American territorial waters,
presumably to see that they do
not become the scene of viola
lions of MURAL rights by belli-
gerent warships.
Measures will be taken to com
bat propaganda, aimed at the
American form of government,
espousing Communism, Dicta-
torshp and the like, and to pre-
vent the United States from be-
coming a center for the gather
ing of information to the belli-
gerents.
In all, there were three pro-
CARNATIONS, the first, in accord
ance with international law,
notifying the interested nations
that America would be officially
neutral, the second invoking the
arms ban of the neutrality law,
and the third dealing with pro-
tective measures at the canal.
But, the President had press
conference, too, and, seated at
his desk opposite big map of
Poland, on which brown and
black lines showed the progress
of the fighting there, he out
lined the additional things which
the administration had in mind,
and commented on the various
aspects of the war situation, as
it affects the United States.
One thing he made as plain
as day: that the embargo auto
matically supercedes any or
ders for aircraft which AmeriL

can manufacturers may be filing
for nations at war.
He m d e it clear, too, that
Germany's denial that a Nazi
submarine sank the British lin
err Athena, was not yet accept
ed here lit had many Americans
on it, Investigations are being
made, he said, with officials of
the American diplomatic corps
in England and Ireland question
ing survivors and otherwise
assembling information. 1t was
plain that a diplomatic protest
to the Hitler government was
possible. 50
In addition, the President
disclosed that one decision had
been made. American naval
vessels will not be sent to con-
voy American ships through the
submarine bne. Instead, the
ships will have American flags
painted on hull, deck and super
structure, will keep to the usual
shipping lanes and will not
darken ship, will not follow a,
Zig-zag course, and will make no
secret of their schedules, he add
ed that under no circumstances,
would it be highly difficult for a
belligerent submarine to make
mistake. -"
1t was another busy day for
the Chef Executive. In early
afternoon, he signed the first
proclamation. After his press
conference he signed the others
And always he was in touch
with the State Department on
on developments abroad.
In invoking the neutrality act
Mr.. Roosevelt gave effect to a
law with which he is in down.
right disagreement. He wants
the arms embargo removed, so
that all belligerents will have
access to American markets. In
practice this would mean that
Great Pritian and her allies
could buy here, and that Ger
many could not. The British
fleet would see to that. The
President has announced he
will call special session of con-
gress to revise the law, but to-
day he still left Indefinite the
date on which that would be.
Aside from the arms embar-
go, the law forbids Americans
to travel on ships of belligerent
natione after 90 days - to
furnish supplies to British war
ships, or grant loans to belli-
gerents. 1t let's the President,
with some reservations, specify
what war articles are subject to
the law.
Those listed in today's pro.
clamation include virtually all
firearms of more than % calibre
ammunition for them, all sorts
of ordnance, all aircraft and air

and poison gas and it's ingredi-

Proclaming neutrality in the
Panama Canal zone Mr.. Roose-
welt also issued an executive
order designed to prevent
damage or injury to the canal
1t authorized canal officials to
take complete charge of tran
sitting vessels, even to the point
of ejecting the officers and crews
from the ships. 1t specified that
no more than isx ships of belli
gerent or it's allies may be in
the canal at one time, and that
no belligerent vessel may be in
it for more than "a hours.
The activities mentioned in
clude enlisting within the United
States for service in a belliger-
emit army, or inducing another
to enlist, fitting out vessels of
war for a belligerent, financing
or participating In military
expedition to a belligerent ma
ton and helping an informed
person to escape provisions of !

They may not engage in any

visit American ports for war;

take on only normal provisions
and mechanical supplies (no arm
aments or ammunition) and |
may remian n port, except in
circumstances, only for
"a hours. Moreover, it is forbidd-
en- that more than three war
ships of bellierent and it's allies
may be in a U. S. port at the
same time. II
To the ban on travel on belli-
gerent ships by Americans, Sec. /,
Hull announced the exception |
that Americans may use these
vessels, he said, if travelling over
waters other than those adjac-
ent to Europe and other THANH
toe in the submarine zone.
The first proclamation of
neutrality was issued early Tues
day afternoon.
