for the position of territorial gov
ernor.
However. he emphasized that be-
cause there is at least one territorial
judgeship vacant in Hawaii today.
the nominee should be Nisei.
He made no specific suggestion
as to whom should be nominated.
Persons of Asiatic ancestry
play large role in the communi-

MESSAGE BY
SENATOR FREAR
Weekly Message From United
States Senator Frear To
People of Delaware
EXPRESSES VIEWS

United States Senator ]. Allen
Frear Monday night praised the
Marshall Plan Program of econ
omic aid which, he said, has halted
the spread of communism in Eu-
rope. In a radio address over
WDEL, Mr.. Frear paid tribute to
General Marshall who founded the
plan, and said that the Marshall
Program has become the first line
of defense for western civilization
in the struggle for freedom.
Senator Frear declared that in
view of the present situation in
the Far East, the Importance of
Western Europe to the strength of
the free world has greatly increas-
ed. He added, ut is evident that
the United States cannot under
take to equip all of the free ma
tions by itself. We must call on
the European production plant, "
he said, ito do it's share in provid-
ing the armies to defend the North
Atlantic area" The Senator said
that without the economic assist
ance which the Marshall Plan has
brought to Western Europe, those
countries would be unable to even
begin the task of rearmament. Mr..
Frear warned that the Marshall
Plan nations will have to make
sacrifices for their own defense.
This, he explained, will result be-
cause after military production
has gotten under way, Europe will
not be able to export as many
goods as she had hoped and SO will
be unable to earn as many dollars
as she had counted on.
Senator Frear said that Marsh
all Plan economic aid and the mill
tary assistance program to West
ern Europe are working hand in
hand and together are keeping the
Red Army from marching west
ward. This action, he concluded,
plus the historic decision on the
part of this country and others to
defend Korea has seemingly STEM
med the Red tide Of aggression.
"The great problem now is to as
semble enough of the worlds free
strength to discourage further at
tacks against liberty-loving ma
tions. We must protect the front
door, which is Europe" Senator
Frear added, land we must watch
the back door, which is Asia"

PROGRAM FOR
ROAD SAFETY
Nighttime Is Time to Drive
: Carefully Says Delaware
Safety Council
NIGHT DEATH RATE HIGH

Darkness - Death! All too Of
ten, the Delaware Safety Council
said today in connection with the
october program of traffic safety
education, the two go hand-in-
hand.
In the back of the mind of prac-
tically every motorist lies the
knowledge that nighttime is the
time to drive carefully. Unfortun-
ately, this small coice Of common
sense is neither sufficiently loud
nor persistent to save thousands of
thoughtless and careless motorists
each year.
The Delaware Safety Council
cited the 1880 traffic fatalities
that occurred after sundown in
1949 as proof of darkness deadli-
ness.
Although this figure represents
an increase over the number OF
persons killed in daylight accidents
during the year, the really signiti-
cant factor lies in the fact that the
United States Bureau of Public
Roads estimates from their studies
that only about 81 per cent of the
countrys driving is done during
the hours of darkness. This would
indicate that the nighttime death
rate is about three times the day
rate.
The Council listed the following
hazards as factors in the high toll
of night traffic accidents:
1. Reduced visibility.
2. The difference between what
is a safe speed at night and what
is a safe speed for ordinary, day
light, driving.
8. Fatigue.
4. Drinking drivers.
5. Failure of pedestrians to
comprehend that approaching mo-
torists cannot see them as rapidly
nor as clearly as the walker can
see the car.

BUSINESS GOOD
DURING AUGUST
Factory Working Forces En-
larged and Production Up
During Month
DUE TO REARMAMENT

1t was quite clear in August that
business in the Third Federal Re-
serve District was still on the up
and up, feeling the impact of re-
and the Korean War.
With summer vacations ended,
factory working forces were en-
larged and production was stepped
up. Department store sales tap
cred off from the "scare buying"
peak reached in July but contin-
ued buoyant. Building contractors,
anticipating higher costs, short
ages of materials, notably cement,
and perhaps government controls,
rushed to complete construction
started or planned for the near fu-
ture. In response to rising busi-
ness requirements, the output of
both anthracite and bituminous
coal was increased as was the vol
ume of bank loans.
Spurred on by the growing back
log of orders, Pennsylvania manu-
facturers expanded operations in
an effort to meet the demand for
their products which was given
impetus by the Korean War. The
greatest gains in output again oc-
Cured in plants making durable
goods. Iron AMI steel plants, which
had been running near top capaci-
ty for months, managed to in
crease production, and cement
mills are running their machinery
ragged to meet demands. In the
nondurable field, the apparel and
textiles mills were scenes of great
er activity. To raise production,
manufacturers in both major
groups hired additional workers
and heightened the work-week. The
substantial increase in the number
of employees which occurred in

One of the most noticeable
changes during this period is
the gradual reddening of the
leaves. When such changes oc-
cur, then it is time to mulch.
Place the straw over the en-
tire strawberry bed so that 1t
settles to a layer of three to
four inches. In some places it
may be necessary to hold down
this mulching material with
chicken wire as otherwise it may
be blown away with the wind.
Early spring frostS frequently
destroy the entire crop of June
bearing varieties, or the early
crop of everbearers. Mulching
helps to overcome this situation,
providing that the mulch is not
removed too early in the spring.
It is not necessary to remove
all the straw mulch in the
spring. A little left around the
plants during the summer helps
keep the berries off the ground
and makes for a cleaner pro-
duct. Mulch along the straw
berry rows also helps to con-
serve moisture.
Strawberry mulching may
mean additional work this fall,
but it will pay big dividends in
carrying plants through diff

Strawberries Need Protection

Strawberries Need Protection
Strawberries are a profitable
small fruit crop in the home
garden. Pay a little attention to
them this fall-that's good in
surance against a crop failure
next growing season.
A good snow cover is an ex-
eellent protection against the
killing of plants during winter.
But some things may happen to
this natural protection. It might
not come till after very sharp
freezes this fall. Or, there may
be a thaW during the winter
forming a layer of ice at ground
level and thus destroying the
insulating value of the snow.
Late spring froSts may occur
after most of the snow has left,
which will destroy the plants
fruit blossoms.
It has been found that mulch
ing strawberry plants with clean
straw, or similar materials, helps
to protect them over winter. But
don't use material like leaves
which mat down too heavily.
Thanks to some experimental
work done in Minnesota a few
years back, we can now time
our mulching better, so that it
will give the maximum amount
of protection. In early days one
was advised to mulch after the
ground was frozen, but that
can be too late. The expert
ments have shown that the
plant can be severely DAMAGE
If the temperature around the
crown of the plant falls below Is
to 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
On the other hand, applying
the mulch too early can be
equally detrimental. The plants
need to be subjected to a few
frosty nights in order to en-
courage certain chemical
changes in the plants. These
few frosty nights will cause
chemical changes within the
plant to make them more resist
ant to temperatures below freez-
ing, but above the critical level
of Is to 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
This process is sometimes refer
red to as the hardening off"
