Displaced Farmers
Available

WASHINGTON - up - Ameri-
can farmers with labor problems
can find a solution in the skilled
European farmers now coming in
to this country from countries un-
der the Communist yoke.
Rigidly tested by u. s. agricul-
tural experts on their practical
farming experience, the displaced
farmers are mostly Of German or
igin who were thrown on their
farms by Communists. They are
willing to start at the bottom as
American farm workers. The more
than 1000 DIP farming families are
dairymen, pOultrymen, cattlemen.

mers and hog raisers, for the most

MILFORD's ELECTRIC PROBLEM

Years ago the question presented to Mil
ford voters at the annual town elections was
"WhO will be elected Tax Collector? Are
you for John Roach or against him? Year
after year that one issue predOminated-
and men were elected to Council more for
their stand on this one issue than any other.
With the adoption of the City Charter sew
eral years ago this was changed, for the
Office of Tax Collector was abolished.
But the new Charter brought forth an
other and greater problem for Milford resi-
dents. The adoption of the Charter abol-
ished the old Light & Water Commission
which operated the Light and Water facili-
ties of the town. The whole operation was
dumped in the lap of City Council-and Mil
fOrd'S electric power troubles had their be-
ginning. Year after year the electric plant
had been operated by father and son team
the late Thomas Banning and Charles
Banning. They did good job; but, in doing
1T, naturally made enemies. "TOm" Ban
ming died, but Charles kept on the job After
years of wrangling, he resigned and enter
ed private business in which he has been
successful. But in the process of operating
the power plant, City Council ran into diff
iculties. The result was a deterioration of
the equipment and the eventual purchase of
current from the Delaware Power & Light
Company. That service is now offered to
the citizens of Milford, through resale by
the City Of Milford to them.
That, in brief, is the story of the cleo
trio problem now confronting the people
of Milford. Again we hear an agitation for
the City to construct a modern diesel equip
ped plant which is to be operated at an i'm
naense profit. One advocate has raised the
issue of "pride of local ownership" Let's
dismiss this as so much "mush" and dis
cJSS the problem on a buSinpSS-Eko haSis
Frankly, we have heard the pros and
cons presented until we cannot have a clear
picture of the problem. Briefly our sugges-
tiOn to both the advocates and dissenters of
municipal ownership is this. Begin by get
ting legislation amending the Charter
through the General Assembly which will
put the entire responsibility of handling
electric current and water problems direct
ly under a permanent Commission elected
solely for this purpose To eliminate the
danger of getting incompetent men on the
group, they should be elected by a property
vOte-each taxpayer, Individual or corpor-
tiOn, being allowed one vote for every dollar
OF tax paid. In this MANNER and only in
this way, will you be able to get men quail
ified to do the job to run for Office
Once this group has been elected and
qualified for Office, let them, as businessmen
looking to the best interests of Milford, make
an impartial survey Of the needs of our
community. Let them decide whether it is
advisable to continue to purchase current
from the Delaware Power & Light Com
pany or to manufacture the current here
in Milford. There are innumerable details
that would have to be worked out before the
legislation is prepared for the General AS
sembly; but it can be done if the effort is
made.

Similar ones were also presented
to the new Delaware State Museum

General Nam II "Slams the Door"
AGAIN


The. cease-fire conference at Kae-
song appeared on the verge of an
other breakdown following the
23rd session, and this time for
keeps unless the U. N. forces
in the field really have been de-
feated, as the Communist attitude
would indicate.
The truce meeting following the
break over the Chinese violation of
the truce zone with armed troops,
found the Communists, under the
leadership of General Nam II, as
adamant as ever in their refusal
to consider or discuss any truce
line other than the 38th parallel.
Vice Admiral Charles Turner Joy,
chief of the U. N. truce team, told
Nam he had slammed the door"
on every attempt to make prog
ress.
At the next meeting, Nam pro-
duced a map showing the lines de-
manded by each side, after refus-
ing to look at one the day before,
and the way appeared open to the
discussion of a compromise truce
line. Yet he was later quoted over
the PyOngyang radio as saying
that no progress could be expect
ed unless the U. N. delegates
changed their attitude.
And at the 23rd session, the last
at this writing, and very possibly
the last you will have to squirm
over; the enemy reverted to his
insistence on the 38th parallel as
the truce line, and refused to leave
the matter in allegiance and go on
to other subjects on the agenda.
At one point, after listening to Ad-
miral joys answer to. a question
General Nam read from a prepar-
ed statement he had brought with
him that the answer was "unsatis-
factory"

"Moolight and Roses" was the

| staged by the junior class last
Friday night, in honor OF the

The theme was reflected in

administrative staff, school
board members, and others
gathered to enjoy a feast pre-
