PRICE CONTROLS ARE OFF of meat The
beginning of the end of all controls by Washington
bureaucrats has started The law of supply and de-
mand will within reasonable time be allowed
work in the proven American way. This, in short,
is the meaning of the removal of controls by Pres-
dent Truman in his speech to the American people
on Monday evening. This is just what the Republ-
leaders and those conservative Democrats who
put country above radical theories have been de-
mandin9 for months and months That the President
has reluctantly been made realize that his political
price fixing club cannot endure longer TO brow beat
the public IS evident Certainly those Senator'S
and COngreSsmen who have followed him, the c. l. Q.
and the p. A. {. radicals find themselves out on a
limb. Ii will be interesting watch their line Of
campaign that the props have been knocked
from under them. Their criticism OF clear thinking
Americans who could, and did, forsee the mess into
which the Democrats have led u.s. has been shorn of
all semblance of sanity. Once the people of this
nation aroused they and do, compel the
most arrogant of bureauCratS change their poll
cies-this is just what Mr.. Truman has done,
though is hard for him eat his words. The fight
is partially won. The November elections must elect
men TO Congress who will see to it that the radical
c. |. O. p A. c. group never again take over the
government.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS of the Milford
Memorial Hospital has taken forward step by in
creasng the membership of the governing body of
the hospital Under the old set-up the membership
was largely confined to residing in Sussex Coun-
", and those having interests in that county. The
enlarged group, and the new members TO the board,
have been drawn largely from Kent County. This
will give more balanced board, and will remove
much Of the criticism which has been leveled the
hospital by elements in the community The
late Dr. Frank L. Grier and the late DIR. G. Layton
Grer did much carry the burden OF the early
days of organization and operation of the institution
1t was natural that with the passing of DR.. Frank
Grer, his brother would gather men about him with
whom he had worked in the past. situation
now confronts the hospital and the Board of Direc-
tors has been enlarged in recognition of the growing
need of representative cross section of the
community in its management. New men named 70
the board are William A. Berry, Jr Irwin Burton,
Frank J. Elton, the Rev Frank Herson Harry II.
Mulhoand John A. Nailor, David n. Sills, George
a. Swain and c. Van MUS Wilkerson. The addition
OF these men the hospital governing board should
bring broadened knowledge of the needs of the
community, with resultant increased interest in the
hospital. The enlargement of the board is wise
move which long overdue.
The campaign for funds TO make possible the
much needed hospital expansion program is about to
come TO head Ii will be over, and we are sure
successful, within about month. Ii succeed
only as we all help, only by giving, but by work
ing. Every man on the board is busy. Most everyone
in the community is busy. But this is important
