AN EXPLANATION


II last weeks issue Of the
Chronicle we published a little
news item In which we poked a
bit of fnn at our esteemed con-
temporary, Colonel Jim Wickes,
publisher of the Delaware State
News Of Dover, IN connection
with the Colonel's recent visit 10
Milford with the Wilmington
Chamber Of Commerce Good
VIII Tour. We mentioned that
the Dover publisher had been
given a ride in Milford 8 new
police car. Every Delawarean
who enjoys Colonel Wickes' ac-
quaintanceship is of course
aware that the item was written
Just In fun, but the article was
unfortunately so worded that
persons who do not know the
Colonel might get the impress
sion that he really did run
afoul of the law while in Mil
ford The Chronicle takes this
opportunity to set its readers
right in this respect. The true
facts in the case are as follows:
The Milford police car picked
up Colonel Wickes, Gerrish
Gassaway, Edward M. Davis
and several other members of
the Good Will Tour who were
guests of Milford on that Occa-
sion and took them on a short
ride to the railroad station,
where they were greeted with
good-natured joking and laugh
ter by other members of the
party. The entire matter was
just a bit of good-natured fun
and the Chronicle regrets that
the original item did not make
this fact clear. However, we are
quite certain that any person
who knows Colonel Jim Wiekes
would know without any further
explanation that il he were
given a ride Ia the new Milford
police car it would be as a vol
untary guest only Hope the
Colonel will not have a police
car waiting for US the next
time we visit Dover.

summer day that / took this ambu-

sunlit countryside.
Walking earelessly along, inhaling
the fragrant aroma Of the wayside
honeysuckle that had climbed the
fences along the way, my attention
was attracted by a robin that had
settled down short distance
ahead.
When he spied me he quickly
took on again across the hedge but
not without calling up in my mem

beauty. Suddenly, it seemed, they
were speaking to me. They seemed
to be saying: Even Solomon in all

Perhaps a mile further down the
road it was that saw afar afield.

Looking Forward

that state wants Roosevelt "
perhaps one of the ciudest and
most tragic political hoaXes
ever perpetuated in this ma
ton. Indeed, it was a phantom
voice - but likewise it was 4
phantom convention, unreal and
un-American.
Most ludicrous of all was the
nomination of Mr.. Wallace for
the Vice Presidency as the
farmers friend! Disclosure
of what Mr.. Roosevelt desired
in this regard so angered dele
gates from farm states that
they booed every time the
name of Wallace was mentioned
Had it not been for the votes
from the city and eastern
Democratic machines Mr.. WAL
lace would not have been nomi-
mated. Obviously delegates from
farm states did not want him.
But orders are orders and the
smelly organizations of New
jerseys Frank Hague, Illinois
Edawrd Kelly and of Tammany
Hall came to Mr. Wallace's aid.
1t was their votes that made pos
sible his nomination.
Thus, as a secondary Incl
dent, we have the spectacle Of
the big city Democratic bosses
naming on the party ticket the
man who is supposed to repres-
ent the farmers of this country !!
No wonder real Democrats are
rushing to support Wendell L.
Willkie.

WINGED John l.. Lewis knew all
about it previously, and that
his parting of the ways with
Franklin last spring was an in

However the third party threat

surprising if THE miners boss
organizes a new party, or tries
to rally real Democrats on the
grounds that the New Dealers
are composed of but a few big

The Republican camp is fast
becoming larger and larger, but
there is still plenty of room for
recruits. A large part of the
'o-called controlled voters such
some unions and the like are go
ing to be quite hard to control
This fall even by leaders who
think this not possible. Too
many debunking occurrences
have been pulled off lately for
the most abuse to not notice.
There is going to be a great

no mistake there. Regardless OF

The Republican party stands
for the American way of life
