ding" sponsored by the Rising sun

day evening last. The advance sale
of tickets was so large that 1t was
Necessary to hold the show on Satur-
day night to accommodate ticket
holders who had been unable to get

The show was rollicking farce,
one big laugh after another, and all
the parts were well taken. 1t was
interspersed with songs, dances ana
instrumental musical numbers that
added greatly to the production.
Miss Madge Paydon, of the Produc-
ton Company, was in charge OF the
direction.
The portion of the receipts accru-
ing to the Lions Club will be devoted
to charitable purposes.
The Lions Club tenders its thanks
to every member of the cast, as well
as the many others, who cooperat-
ed so willingly and heartily and
made the production such success.
Following Saturday evenings
show, by way of celebration, about
thirty members of the cast assem-
bled at the filling station OF Jim
Scott, near Porters Bridge, and en-
ioyed an old time square dance. Mr..
Scott is a man measuring seven
feet, three inches in height, and
claims to be if not the tallest in the
United States, at least one of the
tallest. He took the part of the
shrinking bride in the cast, and was
draped in lace curtains as a bridal
costume. The groom, impersonated
by Kirk Brokaw, measures five feet
four inches, in contrast to the tow

SAVINGS ACCOUNTS
NOT TO BE
CONFISCATED

Rumors have been afloat that the
Government is planning to confiscate
savings accounts. Alfred H. Will
liams, President of the Federal Re-
serve Bank of Philada., has issued
an emphatic denial that anything Of
the sort is contemplated.
ANY rumor or intimation that the
Government is planning to confiscate
savings accounts is unfounded and
is injurious to the morale of the
community and the nation. The Sec
rotary of the Treasury strongly de-
MED it. Said the Secretary, Il wish
to state most emphatically that
there are no foundations whatever
for such rumors. The Federal Gov
eminent does not have under con-
sideration any proposal involving
the confiscation of savings depos
it's of this country for any purpose.
Furthermore, any one circulating
rumors of this character is acting
against the welfare of the nation.
"In this national crisis" stated
Mr.. Williams, 'it is imperative that
we guard ourselves against any
propaganda that tends to inject fear
of the sort that such rumors may
engender.
"To help curb imitation, it is es-
sential," added Mr.. Williams, "that
every receiver of income puts part
of his or her current income into
Defense Savings Bonds. This will
have two great benefits-first, it will
help us to win the war and, second,
it will enable buyers of these bonds
to save money for the future.

Raid Warnings Explained

In order to prevent misunder-
standings regarding blackouts and
air raid warnings and the relation
between them, Mr.. e. D. e. Rollins,
Chief Afraid Warden of Cecil Co.,
released today the following official
definitions:
"a blackout is precautionary
darkening Of lights which might aid
hostile aircraft in locating particular
targets. Under blackout 1t is ex-
pected that all normal activities will
continue except those which mean
showing lights. A blackout does not
necessarily mean that there are
enemy aircraft in the vicinity. Black
outs are precautionary measures.
ION the other hand, an air raid
warning means that there are hos
tile or unidentified planes close by.
1t means that normal activities must
be modified to get people under
shelter and preparations made for
casualties and other damages as the
result of the dropping of bombs,
should that take place, within few
minutes. Air raid warnings are pro-
tective. All air raid warnings at
night include blacking out, of
course; they likewise include the
alerting of the various elements of
the Citizens Defense Corps.
Thus, all air raid warnings are
also blackouts, but it does not fol-
low that all blackouts are also air
raid warnings.

Publishers Discuss
Wars Impact
Loss Of Advertising Il
Serious Blow To Press

The effect of the second World
War, particularly upon weekly news
papers, was thoroughly discussed
Saturday by publishers of the Del
marva Peninsula at the joint an
nual meetings of the Del-Mar-Va
and Maryland Press Associations in
the Hotel DUPONT, Wilmington.
Loss of national and local adver-
Using as result of wartime condi-
lions was particularly in the focus OF
the discussions.
Emphasis of the entire meeting
was also placed on problems of cir
culation, advertising, and the hand
ling of public information released
through federal, state, and munich
pal authorities.
Proposals to increase the annual
subscription rate of weekly news
papers were studied as means OF
supplying revenue which has been
lost since large manufacturing COM
panies, formerly national advertis-
ers in weekly papers, have in many
cases discontinued advertising alto
gether. 1t was suggested that an av-
erage of so cents a year be the in
crease in subscription rate to offset
losses during this war period.
Theodore Townsend II of Milford
was elected president of the Del
Mar-Va Association to succeed c.
L. Vincent of Snow Hill.
Other officers of the Del-Mar-Va
organizations elected are: Vice.
president, Wallace White of Sails
bury, Md; secretary, A. o. H. Grier,
Wilmington; directors, Murray
Metten, Wilmington; G. Arthur Nc
Daniel of Federalsbury, Md, and
Glenn E. Bray Of Easton, Md.
The Maryland Press Association
elected the following slate: Presi-
dent, G. Arthur Mcdaniel; vice-pres-
ident, e. o. Diffendal Of Westmin-
ster, Md: secretary, Sam E. Shana-
han Of Easton, Nd; directors, Mr..
Vincent, Frank r. Wallace, Balti-
more; John d. Worthington, Bel
Air; P. G. Stromberg, Ellicott City,
and Leo M. Moore, Havre de Grace.
The Maryland association also
elected a legislative Committee: Will
liam B. Usilton III of Chestertown;
]. w. Cronin, Aberdeen; Leo M.
Moore of Havre de Grace, and Mrs.
Mary Melvin of Denton.
The publishers and editors agreed
that some new methods of support
ing their publications must be found
as the losses in revenue, which have
become increasingly alarming in
recent months, might soon cause
curtailment in the space available
for disseminating essential informa-
ton.
A proposal to ask that publication
Of federal and state releases be paid
for by the federal and state agen-
cies at space rates Of papers on
Eastern Shore was made by Leon A.
Andrus Of Queen Anne Record OBJ
server, Centreville.
Mr.. Andus said that he did not
believe papers could afford to carry
the increasingly large amounts of
publicity releases without having
some revenue to support additional
costs of printing these releases.
