Opposition To JWdgeSIiip

CONTINUED from nrst paael

This might reduce the case1oad
sufficiently to eliminate necessity
for the Is additional judgeships
the Senate proposes" he declared.
To Study Entire Picture
Representative Boggs was quick
to point out that Walters bill will
have little effect on the Delaware
Court because most cases which it
hears involve very substantial sums
of money. Walter said that he
agreed with this but that the whole
situation will have to be assessed
before any new judgeships at all
are created.
Members of the House group are
also reported to favor legislation
giving the Chief Justice of the
United States authority to order
judges from districts where dockets
are clear to temporary assignment
in districts where dockets are
crowded with lOng-delayed cases.
At present the Chief Justice can
only advise, not command.
Until these other questions are
out of the way, the Senate's Omni-
bus Judgeship Bill is likely to be
delayed in the House.

Ferries To Stop
Operating As New

of Delaware.
Delaware has no ferryboats vet
and probably will not have for
quite some time, it was pointed
out.
Under the act passed by the
116th General Assembly authoriz-
ing the issuance Of S3,9OO.OOO to
finish the bridge, it was specified
that the State Highway Depart
ment mast either purchase the fer
ries or start condemnation prO-
ceedings before next Friday.
The date is set in the law as
in no event later than 80 DAYS
following approval of the act
Approval was given on May 8.
There is every indication that
the highway department will have
to start condemnation proceedings,
since purchase negotiations report
edly have broken down.
The first step in condemnation
calls for appointment by the resi-
dent judge Of a five-man cOndem-
nation jury. This jury will hear
both sides in the dispute, and then
issue it's opinion on how much the
state should pay for the ferries.
Possible Appeal
If either party to the argument
disagrees, an appeal can be fled
and a sheriff's jury must be ap-
pointed to establish a condemna-
ton amount all over again.
The decision of the sheriff's iurv
is final; there is no appeal permits
sible under law.
When an amount is determined
by either course of action, the Gen
eral Assembly must be convened
in special session to authorize the
issuance Of additional bonds for
this transaction.
Payment may be made within
four months after the amount is
determined.
It was pointed out that since the
state has no vcNted interest in the
ferry company at present, the City
OF Baltimore is premature in at
tempting a business arrangement
with the state.

Safety Council Notes

Encouraging all farm residents
to adopt safe practices in all phases
Of farm life is the goal set by
President Truman in prOclaiming
the eighth Observance of NATION
AL FARM SAFETY WEEK, JULY
1928, 1851.
The Presidents proclamation said,
in part: Experience has proved
that observance of safe practices
in working and living can reduce
accidents !. Now, therefore,
urgently request each member Of
every farm family to adopt safe
practices to drive safely, work
safely and live safely.
Ned H. Dearborn, president Of
the National Safety Council, in dis
.cussing plans for National Farm
Safety Week, pointed out that it is
especially important for farm peO-
pie to adopt safe practices now, in
view of the national emergency.
Mr.. Dearborn said: THE Bureau
Of Agricultural Economics tells us
there are 100000 fewer farm
workers than there were 10 years
ago; so each mans output is more
important. Moreover, during the
present crisis, unskilled workers
and women may have to be added
to the farm labor force; so the
likelihood of accidents may be in
creased. The situation demands
more attention to safe practices"
Mr. John D. ReedeF, president Of
the Delaware Safety said: Nation
al Farm Safety Week is the time
for all farm people to resolve to
adopt safe practices in every
phrase Of farm life SO weeks a
year This will reduce the tragic
annual toll Of lives; it also will
help increase Americas manpow-
err and production, both of which
are especially needed in these
times"

Drinking Water
Fluoridation Needed
continued from arst page,


DR.. Frank M. Hopes said tha
suggestion Of putting huorine in
the Wilmington water supply was
made to the Board Of Water Com
mission at an informal meeting
with representatives of the Dental
Society more than three years ago
but was turned down by the con-
mission because of the expense
and fear that it might harm the
water.
Since then, however, one city af-
ter another throughout the coun-
try has started huoFidation pro-
grams, DR.. Hopes said. One of the
notable experiments was made in
the cities of Newburg and Kingston,
N. Y, two communities using the
same basic water supply, DR.. Win
throp explained. Periodic checks
over the past five years have indi-
Gated that it is very helpful in
those communities, he said.
Primary purpose of fluoridation
lis to reduce the incidence of teeth
decay in children, he pointed out
Drinking water treated with luor-
inc has little effect on children
over six years of age. However, in
children using fluoridated drinking
water from birth, 1--WE know we
can protect from q to 40 per cent
of the children" DR.. Winthrop
said.
The outstanding factor leading
to the recommendation is that the
great majority of young children in
Delaware are not receiving proper
dental care regularly. 1.-THE great
est possibility for prevention Of
fered is by fuoridation of every
available source of drinking wa
ter" DR.. Winthrop said.
FaVOrs Program
"The society is on record and
has been for several years as fav-
Oring this plan," he added.
DR.. Winthrop also explained the
need for control" in the FLORIDA
ton program. Not over three parts
of fuOrine can be used for each
million parts Of water, he said
"YOu just can't dump a can OF
fuOrine into water; you can't dc
it haphazardly," he emphasized.
The report of the welfare CON-
mittee will be presented at a meet
ing in the Academy of Medicine by
DR.. Winthrop, who, although nc
longer chairman of the committee
served in this capacity while the
study was being made. Present
chairman of the committee is DR.
Clyde M. Cox of Newark.
DR.. Victor D. Washburn, Will
mingtOn health commissioner, has
said of the plan that, there is nc
question in my mind but that this
is a good thing and that the dental
profession is the logical place for
it to begin"
DR.. P. X. Musselman, a strong
advocate of fiuOridation of drinking
water, was successful in having
the program adopted in Newark.
