Auditorium Site

In area the Marine Hospital site is
well adapted for the auditorium build
ing, particularly as it is the understood
intention of the City Council to include
the adjoining Robert Strange play
ground in a combined recreation park
project. AS much cannot be said for
it geographically.
The Councils decision is liable to
draw criticism and complaint from a
large section of the population on the
ground that land of ample area could
be secured at moderate price further
from the center of the city through no
streets run and on which no buildings
exist.
The Council, however, can defend
it's decision as the hospital land, for
which the City Of Wilmington had been
in negotiation for more than two de-
cades, was finally acquired by purchase
from the War Department for this
specific use and other close-in property
lis held at prices the Council consider
ed exhorbitant.
If the administration at the City
Hall finds means to finance the audi
forum it doubtless will be built there
and so be neither quite downtown, as
many wish, or suburban, as others de-
sire, but can be the central useful
adornment of a tract capable of great
development as a play and entertain
ment center which will place Whining
ton more nearly on a par with the
larger cities of the state.
1t is questionable if the seating
capacity of either the main auditorium
or the music hall will prove adequate
as now proposed, but as there is no
probability of quick start on con-
struction there will be time for recon-
sideration of the plans and the needs
of a growing community receive the
attention they deserve.
In view of the investment contemp-
lated it must be noted that the build
ing ought to serve the public need, not
merely at the projects time of COM
pletion but for many years to come.

On Volcanic Ground

Considering his forensic limitations,
President Truman was far more eloqu-
ent and forceful in his Army day adj
dress at Soldier Field, Chicago, than
he ever before gave evidence of, but
nevertheless ventured on volcanic soil.
He called for unification of the arm
ed forces, for example, subject that
has caused grave dissension among the
heads of those forces and can hardly
be expected to win congressional ap-
proval.
He renewed his appeal for universal
military training, a European system
which is bitterly resented by great
numbers of Americans and contrary to
the nations long standing policy OF de-
pending on citizens army IN war
emergencies.
But particularly it is to be noted
that almost on the heels OF the Sc
curity Councils permitting Russia to
get away with another Moscow trick
the Iranian oil deal-on it's own terms,
Mr.. Truman proclaimed universal
American foreign policy aimed at stop
ping GEORGIAN and penetration of the
weak It ia not to be forgotten that the
United States, through its Secretary
of State and it's permanent Security
Council delegate, however bravely they
bearded the Russian regime at the
state, fell in line when Iran, obviously
under heavy pressure from Moscow
gave it's consent.
It is not easy to determine whether
Mr.. Truman has given a demonstration
of exceptional courage or, as happen.

par advice in preparing his speech.

small boats to pass up the stream
which is now the northeast corner
of Market and Second streets. In
time the stream became known as
Jacobs Run, and it's origin was
near the intersection of Fourth and
Princess streets. The mouth Of the
run afforded good docks for the
boats and the street which termin-
ated nearby became Dock street.
From this point On the river, also,
there was established ferry,
called the 'Haulover', for conveying
passengers and vehicles to the site
of the present village of Navassa

This ferry avoided the impossible
swamps of Eagles island on the
west side of the river.

Johnson, the newly appointed
Scotchman who was to head the

This is Want AID Week. Some five

I'm 1889 Newton became an in
corporated town, but under a new
name. This was Wilmington. the
name being given in honor of Spen-
Ger Compton, Earl of Wilmington,
under whose patronage Governor
Johnston received his appointment.
Tie provincial assembly, or legis-

in 1741.
Thus Wilmington came into be-

at the expense of Brunswick. The
two towns had, however, many
things in common. There were fam
