Is THOUSAND
BOOKS TAKEN

These Are For The Use OF The

Maryland. Quota $4,000

More than fifteen thousand books,
donated for the use of the men in the
armed forces, were collected through
out Maryland in the first six days of

rector, Miss Abilene J. Pratt, announ-
ced this week. While this. represents
only about u percent of the States
total quota of $4,000 books, Miss
Pratt pointed cut that the first weeks
showing was actually better than had
been anticipated.
Moreover" she said, "our reports
from many of the Baltimore depots,
as we'll as from the counties, arc in
complete. When complete reports
come in they will probably show that
the first weeks collections have a
mounted to considerably more than
$4,000 books. 1t should be empha-
sized, too, that a majority of the To-
cal and county committees and coop
Grating organizations are only getting
into full swing. BY the end of the
present week, with all of these groups
working at top speed, we should GER
tainly be within reach of our goal"
At the same time Mauritz Hallgren,
chairman for the counties, announced
the quotas for the twenty-three c0un-
ties of aMryland. "These quotas"
he said, "have been worked out on a
population basis In each case the
quota given is the bedrock minimum.
1t represents the total number of
books we must collect in each county
if we are not to be branded as fail
ures in this all-important cause. Pre-
liminary reports indicate that most
counties will not only reach their quo
tas, but far exceed them
The quota for Worcester County is

STAFFORD CORPORATION
WINS JUDGMENT FOR $685.

The town of Seaford won a judy
men of $1,655 from the Eastern Shore
Public Service Company in Superior
Court ending long civil action which
began in September 1886 in the Court
of Chancery. 1t has been appealed to
the State Supreme Court and then
taken to the United States Supreme
Court which denied the Company a
writ of certiorari.
The specific action involved con-
cerned the payment of appeal bonds
and damages to the city whose bill of
complaint stated that it had had to
pay a larger price for a new plant
facilities and interest charges due to
the legal proceedings and had suffer
ed because the company had delayed
removing poles and equipment as or
dered by former Chancellor Josiah O.
Wolcott.
The city sought approximately 49,
900 damages plus counsel fees. The
court with Judges Richard S. Rodney
and Frank L Speakman sitting, had
found the damages to approximate
$1,000. Counsel fe IS were denied.
In September 1886 the Seaford City
Council granted Il 20 year franchise
to the Seaford Light and Power Com
pany, a subsidiary of Fairbanks,
Morse and Company OF Chicago to e.
rect an electric plant, but the Eastern
Shore Company whose 20 year fran
chise had expired in 1885, notified
council that it would continue to serve
consumers in Seaford.
Councils action was the climax of
long controversy between the city and
the utility company in which the city
contended that it was ready to lay the
foundation for a municipality owned
electric plant. On September the 9Th
the Council ordered the company to
dismantle its Seaford plant not later
than May l, 1857.
Council then applied for AMI got
WPA grant of $50,200 for construc-
ton purposes, but the company OBJ
tanned an injunction against granting
of the funds and another Injunction a
gainst the floating of bono issue of
$4,000 both restraints granted by
former Chancellor Josiah o. Wolcott.
On July %, 1888 several months
after Chancellor Wolcott had ordered
the company to remove its lines and
equipment from the town, the State
Supreme Court upheld this order. The
company then took the case to the
United States Supreme Court, which
refused a review.
Throughout the contest the COM
rany maintained that the city had no
right to acquire plant of its own.
The city fought this successfully and
entered into an agreement with the
Seaford Power and Light Company
whereby it could gain control of the
new plant five years after the fran
elise had been granted,
