Funds Pledged
For Canal Span

With the retention by the House
of Representatives of the 81, 100000
item for the building of a new bridge
over the Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal, the first link in the proposed
dual Eastern Shore Highway between
Elkton and Salisbury is now assured.
Rep. Dudley S. Roe of Centreville
reported to Maryland authorities
this week that he had succeeded in
getting the House to retain the item
for the bridge to replace the one at
Chesapeake City that was destroyed
by a passing steamships collision
more than three years ago. Since
that time the government has operat-
ed ferry for pedestrians and We
hicles at that point.
The State Roads Commission au-
thorities reported last week that
practically all of the rights of way
for the new dual highway between
Elkton and Chesapeake City had
been secured and that the only thing
that was materially holding up ac-
ton on the project was the uncer-
tainty about the future of the canal
span.

Eclipse Of The Moon
Due December ID

A total eclipse of the moon-the
first visible in the United States since
1942-will occur the night of Dec.
Is
If skies are clear, the eclipsed
moon will look like giant red
Christmas tree bulb. Even at total
eclipse the moon is never completely
darkened by the shadow cast when
the earth comes between the sun and
the moon.
Rays from the sun are bent in
the earth's atmosphere SO that some
light actually sidesteps the earth.
The eclipsed moon shows up as ruddy
in hue because the red light from
the sun gets through the earth's at
mosphere easiest.
During total eclipse of the sun,
the sun is virtually "blacked out" be-
cause the moon, which comes be-
tween US and the sun, has no atmos-
phere to bend the suns rays.
The eclipse will start at 1880 p. m.
(E.S.T.) and will end at 11.03 p. m.
The period of totality will be about
one hour and 20 minutes.
According to Abbot, astronomers
don't get excited about eclipses of the
moon because there is no further sci
entific data to be gained as far as is
known.
when the sun is shining full up
on the moon, the temperature on the
moons surface is that of boiling wa
ter. But during the eclipse the tenn
perature of the moon falls below the
temperature of dry ice-in excess of
40 degrees below Zero!"

General jonathan Wainwright fire.
quently mentioned his comrades who suf-
fered in battle and in the cruel months of
captivity that followed" because "for
while we were careless of the nations
safety"
He asked, I'm the name of all my
comrades who suffered with me-" that
this nation will never again neglect the
strength of its defenses," and added that
1.-The American people must realize fully
the nature of the enemy we knew so we'll.
Only on a just consideration of his nature,
as it was revealed to us, will we be able to
decide such measures as must be taken to
insure our future security from his lust
for power"
These are the words of man who
took command of hopeless cause in the
Philippines, was compelled to surrender
to overwhelming power and, with his men,
"to suffer more cruelty later on under the
inhuman treatment received in Japanese
prison camps. For many months in prison,
he had only the memory of America and
the faith that his nation would eventually
restore him to freedom and, during those
months, he had ample time to carefully
weigh the tragic events of the war.
1t is not too much to expect Ameri-
cans to make effective the plea of General
Wainwright that the sacrifice of his men,
Giving on the thoughts and deeds of Amer
lea, can protect this nation from the lack
of practical foresight which brought about
the tragic events"
