Appliances Are Time
Savers

Good equipment saves valuable
time for relaxation or n0n-home-
making jobs" says Miss Louise r.
Whitcomb, home management spec
ialist. According to research stud
les, homemakers can save thous-
ands Of hours of drudgery by using
good equipment.
OF all appliances, good laundry
equipment is the greatest time saw
er per dollar invested. An ordinary
washing machine with a wringer
saves the housewife 1880 hours
during its lifetime. OF course, the
automatic washer is an even great
er time saver. 1t saves a total Of
2,417 hours. Either washer saves
plenty Of energy.
The vacuum cleaner not only
does a cleaner job than can be done
by hand, but it also saves the house
wife 344 hours during the cleaners
expected lifetime.
So, says Miss WhitcOmb, the next
time you need solid facts to back up
your reasons for buying a piece of
equipment, just think of the ours
you will save.

YOUR UNITED
S T AT ES
BY FLOYD cRAMER
President Of the National Association for the
Preservation Of Free Enterprise, Inc.

Some of our American business
men are failing to do their part to
preserve the Free Enterprise sys-
tenn. They probably talk more--and
do less-than anyone else. From
what they say, you'd think they in
vented Free Enterprise; in fact,
you'd think they owned it.
refer to the type of business
man who fails to live up to the OBJ
legations that the Free Entelp prise
system imposes on all business
men.
What are these obligations?
WhaC are the things businessmen
must do, if Free Enterprise is TO
he perpetuated and strengthened?
BUSINESSES responsibility begins
in Cmploye relations. All businesses
must remember that an emplOye is
fellow man, and not a commodity
or a machine.
1t is businesses responsibility to
pay as high a wage as good man
agement will allow; to provide
pleasant, healthy working condi-
tiOns; to consider the future well
fare Of employees by offering PRO
lection against sickness and acci-
cent, by life insurance and by some
type of retirement plan.
Business also has a responsible
ty to it's customers. 1t has a dWty
to honestly try to give the best
product for the lowest price. That
is The essence of free enterprise
at work, and unless this RESPONSE
bility is met, free enterprise Is not
working to the peoples advantage.
In the majority of cases, cOmpeti-
tiOn forces business to do just this,
(Which is a good reason to keep
competition aliveD. But in some
other cases, supposed competitors
put their heads together to limit
competition and keep prices up.
Every time they do this, they are
weakening our whole American
system.
The responsibilities of business
men also go beyond employees and
product. They go into the very life
of the community Every business
pays taxes for the general welfare,
but as member of the community
/ it has a duty to improve local con-
ditions; to sponsor civic programs (;
and to give support to. community
activities.
Our businessmen-as champions
of free enterprise-must show their
willingness and ability to meet So
cial problems. A "let George do it,
attitude toward welfare problems,
is to invite the government to play
George.
Men are happiest when they do
not NEED to turn to the govern
ment for help. But business must
never forget that the socialist
planners gained ground ONLY
when the friends of free enterprise
failed in their responsibility to the
people.

Wise Spending Means
Happier Living

Knowing where money goes and
better spending plans based on
past spending mistakes, means
wiser use of family money" says
Miss Louise r. WhitcOmb, Delaware
home management specialist. Ac-
cOrding to her, families who con-
sistently keep records each year
get closer to some of the goals they
hope to reach-new equipment,
education for their children, or
perhaps a family vacation.
These goals are not reached in
one year." says Miss Whitcomb.
Neither will just dreaming make
them possible. However, cutting
down spending for unimpOrtant
things, systematic saving for emer-
gencies, and teaching money man
agement to children can make those
goals a reality"
Farm families, cooperating with
Miss WhitcOmb in her summary of
household accounts found some in
teresting facts. The families found
they were spending three times
more for family health than they
did five years ago. Their spending
for gifts, church and community
needs had almost doubled since
1949. They were amazed to find that
personal items like hair cuts, to-
baccO, etc, took $135. One-hundred
.seventy-eight dollars were spent by
the families for newspapers, maga-
zines, and movies.
According to Miss WhitcOmb, it
isn't the amount of money, but the
way the money is spent that means
happier family living. An easy way
to keep tract of money spent is
through household accounts.

Fire Calls

Wednesday,, August q: The fire.
men were summoned to battle FIRE
at James Deputy's farm home in
Milford Neck at 1:15 a. m. Despite

ed down, the blaze having gained
too much headway before being
discovered. Loss is estimated at
nearly $4,000. Later the same day

wet down the ruins which, flaring
up, were threatening adjacent

work but expressing doubt as to
their ability to raise OpeDational
funds.
Each Unit Sent Queries
Ellis Kyttle, a member of the
CD state council, told the firemen
that certificates" had been sent
TO each of the II companies con-
tanning a list of questions to be
answered and that upon the basis
of information thus received the
75 per cent of companies required
to gain participation would be
made. He urged the return of the
certificates by the individual COM
panies. The consensus of opinion
in the meeting was to the effect
that Sussex County, while not yet
designated as a critical target area,
definitely should be a part of the
network. The association has re-
lquested information as to whether
the operation of the network in
Sussex County could be carried on
on a volunteer basis" but thus far
has received no such information,
officials say.
A statement carried in the press
earlier this week stated, "If with
in a set time the Sussex County
Volunteer Firemen do not agree to
the conditions set by the state de-
paTtment, then the equipment will
be distributed to other volunteer
companies in or near the critical
target areas" This statement,
coupled with the lack of replies
to queries as to the possibility of
manning the central station with
volunteer fiTemen, in the absence
of ability of companies to furnish
the 1900 has left member COM
panies unable to reach a possible
solution.
The association at their meeting
voted to adopt a plan of education
in latest firefighting methods and
will use a question and answer
plan. This plan was suggested by
Ellis Kyttle, education chairman.
The Blades, Lewes and Laurel
companies will report on questions
at the September meeting in Days
boro Fire Hall, September 23rd.
Gambling Bill Discussed
A discussion on the so-called
gambling bill, was followed by a
motion by Rev. John w. WOOtten,
of Bridgeville. chaplain of the Sus-
! sex Association, calling for in
creased appropriations to vOlun-
teer companies to offset the loss
of revenue.
Granville T. White, of Laurel,
announced that Ladies' Night would
be held on November 14th with the
following as committee chairmen
for it: Robert D. S. Mustard,
Georgetown and Rev. John w.
WoOtten. Bridgeville, entertain
ment; David Boyd, Bridgeville,
tickets; DR.. T. G. Mulligan, pro-
grams, and Elbert G. Bailey and Mr..
White, of Laurel, as the dinner
committee.
J. Herald Brittingham, of Lewes,
president of the State Fire Chiefs
Association, urged full participa-
ton in state association activities.
Elmer Dodd, RehObOth, president,
presided at the meeting. The Rev.
David Campbell of Blades gave the
invocation and the benedictiOn was
by the Rev. John w. WOotten, the
chaplain. Reuben Stewart, SeafOrd,
past president, presented a cash
token of appreciation to Mrs. Mar
garet Hastings, president of the
Blades Auxiliary which served the
dinner. Mrs. Hastings, also mayor
of Blades, welcomed the firemen.
