Miss Adeline Hoffman, Clothing
Specialist from the University of

on New Fabrics and their care"
then stated that new developments
in the field of textile have been so
numerous in the past few years that
it is difficult to keep up with the
changes. The biggest news interest
to homemakers and all users of
textiles is the new finishes and eff
cheney to fabrics. Some of these are:
Controlled shrinkage and stretch
ing; crease and crush resistance;
water repellent; flame, mildew, and
moth resistance; permanent glaze
and crisp finishes. The new mater
ials are those further developed on

Structed for war to reconstruction

lone of the best in the country"

Hold Meet At Seaford
Informative Paper Is Read BY Col.
w. T.. Lank At Sussex COncIayp

At meeting of the Spanish AM
erican War Veterans at Seaford,
the following paper was read, and
it being something that the large
majority of the citizens of the Uni
ted States do not know and un-
derstand, the members thought it
should be given more publicity,
by having the home papers pub
lish it. The paper was by Hugh L..
Stephenson, Department Comman-
der, U. S. w. ", of Pennsylvania,
and published by ]. X. Weaver
Camp No. SO, of Norristown, Pa.
The paper was sent to one of the
members of Delmarva Camp, U. S.
w. ", and was read by Colonel w.
E. Lank.

Older Persons Should
Consider Their Health
Comprising $50 OF The POpula-
tiOn They Should Exercise Care

Today elderly people, those Ov-
er SO, comprise approximately 6.S
per cent of the population. Too
often, says the State Board of
Health, these older folk feel that,
because of their age, they do not
need to follow the health rules
of which they speak so easily to
their grandchildren.
In Delaware, as in other states,
health for mothers and children is
constantly being urged. 1t is also
important, says the State Board of
Health, that older folk, men and
women over so. consider their
health. For them. too, periodic
physical check-ups are important.
They, too, need a balanced diet
with plenty of fruits, vegetables
and liquids. These older people
also need sufficient sleep and ex-
ercise in keeping with their gen.
eral physical condition.

New Labor Bill
Passes The House
$50 To IS Is Far More Than Need
ed To Override Expected Veto

WASHINGTON-(P)-A compro-
mise bill to clamp restraints on
strikes and unions won final ap-
proval of the House last Wednes-
day by the terrific margin of 800
to 70, far more than enough to ov-
erride a Presidential veto.
The measure now goes to the
Senate, where hackers predict it
will pass probably today, also by a
lop-sided vote. The Senate passed
it's original labor bill, 6S to "a, or
considerably more than the two
thirds necessary to nullify a veto.
The final tally in the House on.
Wednesday showed PIT Republi-
cans and 103 Democrats for, &C
Democrats. IL Republicans and one
American-Laborite against.
Representative j. Caleb
Boggs (R-Del.) voted in favor
of the bill)
Although the bills backers' are
sure it will become law whatever
President Truman does, he is fac
| ing one of the most momentous de-
cisions of his career because of its
possible effects on the 194S elec-
tions.

Tax Cut Bill
Given Truman,
Veto In Doubt
Senator Taft Says Presi-
dent Can't Afford To
Reject 1t; No Comment
From White House.

WASHINGTON -(P)- Congress
dispatched the $4,000, 900 ,000-a-year
income tax cut to President Tru-
man last Tuesday-and word cir
culated that the President is
strongly inclined to bounce it back
with a veto.
One Democratic official on Capt.
tol Hill went so far as to tell re-
porters Mr.. Truman intends to veto
the measure, and will do so unless
he has a last-minute change of
mind. Others, however, were not
so sure.
The Senate, by a As to 2S vote
completed legislative action on the
bill which would reduce taxes 10.5
to 80 per cent effective July 1.
