"In addition, we are geographic
ally located in a most attractive
area, and our own natural re-
sources are indeed of wide inter-
est and great drawing card to
peoples of many areas. In view of
this rapid growth, it seems most
essential that we as a state pre-
serve, protect and develop wisely
our splendid natural attractions
and facilities for good, healthful
recreation, fishing, hunting and
camping for our citizens"
Unusual Interest Seen
In his opening remarks the Con-
gressman said, "IU is indeed a mat
ter of great encouragement to Re-
publicans throughout the State of
Delaware to note the unusual in

that the first shock wears off. We
must not get used to corruption.
We must stay shocked by it as we
were the first day blaring head
lines proclaimed that Williams had
unearthed a tax official stealing
our money.
Corruption Condemned
1--WE must not get used to cor
ruptiOn. On the day that we do we
