lNCE Saturday there
NICAI has been celebration
MN~Ml of one kind OF an
"a ZZZ/ other, cOmmemora-
-.----@-@-------1 ting Delaware Day.
The date of December is i'm
pOrtant to us i'll the Diamond
State for reasons peculiar to
us, but the larger meaning of
the day will always remain in
the Infamous attack by the
Japs at Pearl Harbor. However,
the date is important and it
has occurred to many, perhaps,
that there should have been a
page in American history de-
voted to Caesar Rodney's ride
just as space has been given to
Paul Revere's ride. Certainly.
we take nothing away from the
much lauded Paul when we say
that Caesar Rodney's signing
of the Declaration of Independ-
ence after his long journey
from Lewes to Philadelphia,
made way for the real begin
ming of this wonderful country
which we call America, the
Beautiful"

Army Relaxing Hold
On Manila Housinq
BY the Associated Press

MANILA, Aug. 8.-United States
Army headquarters for the Western
Pacific took note today of civilian
complaints that it has an unfair
share of Manila's inadequate hous-
ing and docks. and announced that
it was reducing its leaseholds "as
fast as consistent with military
needs"
Maj. Gen. J. G. christensen
deputy commander, withheld any
other comment on the complaints
from varied civilian sources, but the
public relations office at headquar-
ters announced.
Leaseholds in the Philippines, at
the peak numbering "a LOO, now total
10,750 plus 1000 new ones under
negotiation. The figures include
docks, dumps, warehouses and other
commercial facilities as well as
housing.
The American Chamber of Com
merce said the Army was abandon
ing Quonset huts to move into pri-
vate residences. Other sources said
Army-flxed rental prices were too
low and that the extent of Army
leasing was delaying civilian re-
habilitation. Clyde Dewitt an
American businessman, said Army
officers were drawing criticism for
retaining swank private homes and
a country club.
The Army public relations Office
said the Army's residential lease
holds in the Philippines have been
Icut from 98 on March ! to So at
present, including eight apartment
or hotel structures and As residences
mot including Air Force leases.)
