FREAR URGES
DEFENSE CUT
Senator Has Urged President
Eisenhower to Devote Per-
sOnaI Attention to Budget
CUT PROBABLE

United States Senator ]. Allen
F'rear has urged that President
Eisenhower devote personal atten-
tion to the Nations Defense Bud
get and, if possible, make substan-
tial reductions in it. In his week.
ly statement from Washington, the
Senator declared that while Con-
gress will probably reduce non
defense expenditures, greater saw
ings can perhaps be brought about
by elimination of unnecessary ap-
propriations within the Military
Services. Mr.. Frear pointed out
that since the President has had
years of experience in Defense
matters, he can be relied upon to
appraise the Defense Budget, and
perhaps lower it considerably.
"Some authorities" added the Sen
ator. ''believe Defense costs can be
cut by as much as 10 billion dol
lars" Senator Frear said that as
an advocate of economy in Govern
ment, he is always happy to see
cut-backs either in new appropria-
tions or in unexpended balances of
funds which have been approved at
earlier dates. However, he noted
that such reductions should be
made for purposes of efficiency in
the operations of the Federal Gov
ernment. 1.-THE overall objective
in lessening the cost Of Govern
ment is twofold," Senator Freal
said. "First, to balance the Fed.
eral Budget and remove the exist
ing deficit, and second the even
tually lower taxes. Both of these
are highly commendable goals"

KNOW AND OBEY
TRAFFIC LAWS
Traffic Laws Are On Your
Side; Whose Side Are You
On? Questions for Citizens
LAWS PROTECT

Traffic laws are on YOUR side.
Whose side are YOU on?"
This question was put to the cit
liens of Delaware this week by F.
]. Jamison, Assistant Manager of
the Delaware Safety Council.
Mr.. Jamison, speaking in behalf
of the Know and Obey Traffic
Laws program which is being con-
Quoted by the Council and the Ma
tional Safety Council during Feb
ruary, branded as suicidal the cur
rent disregard of traffic laws so
prevalent throughout the country.
He said that in almost all traffic
accidents one or more traffic laws
are violated by motorists or pedes-
trians or both.
"It is high time" Mr.. Jamison
said, "that motorists and pedestri-
ans recognize the fact that traffic
laws and regulations are made for
their protection. Too many people
are inclined to regard these laws
as restrictive and to ignore them
when ever it suits their conven-
lience."
Mr.. Jamison said it is estimated
that if every driver and pedestrian
observed traffic laws and regu1a-
tions and safe walking and driving
rules, the annual traffic toll would
be reduced 85 to 80 per cent. This,
he painted out, places the burden
of responsibility for his own safety
sqnuarely upon everyone who trav-
els our streets and highways.
/ The driver, Mr.. Jamison said
CANDLES his life and the lives OF
other motorists and pedestrians
each time he is guilty of one of the
following unsafe acts:
Exceeds a safe speed.
Fails to give a car on the right

ties of water, a large diameter
gravel packed-well is better.
If a stream is ON your property,
it will be the cheapest water
source. Before using the stream,
make sure that water is available
during drought periods and that
the water does not contain harmful
chemicals.
Ponds are usually less expensive
to construct than wells, but must
be deep enough to supply the need
ed water. Water from a pond
source, however, is not as safe as
water from a well.
In closing. DR.. Groot said, 81

tell Delaware farmers that we are

water when you need it rather
than water where you need it,,
said DR.. Johan J. Groot, State Ge-
ologist, at today's Farm and Home
Week session. ''That should be
our slogan in areas where there is
an excess of water at one time and
a shortage at another time"
According to Groot, even in
poorly drained areas, plants may
lack water in drought periods and
irrigation may be necessary. But,
said, Groot, irrigation or no irriga-
ton, water demands in rural areas
of Delaware are increasing. A gen.
Grafton ago farmers used about 6
gallons a day per person. Now,
farmers use ten times as much
water.
'SWhat water sources are avail
able in Delaware? Where are
they found? How much water is
available? All of these questions
are the problem Of the Delaware
Geological Survey.
Wells are the most important
water sources in rural Delaware
and where only few hundred gal
Ions of water are needed per day
wells supply enough water. How
ever, with supplemental irrigation
wells do not always supply water
needed. 1t takes $1,000 gallons oi
water to apply one inch of water
to one acre.
Groot named three sources O.
water for supplemental irrigation
wells, streams, or ponds.
An ordinary well with steel cas-
ing and a good screen of non-cor
rosive material will usually pro
vide enough water if not NOR,
than 100000 gallons per minut
are required. For larger quaint

One Of the elements was seen

William Ramsay, was heating a
mineral when he observed that a
strange gas came from it. He
studied this gas with his spectre
scope, and saw a bright yellow
line. When he compared this
with the yellow line produced by
the suns helium, he found that
the two were the same!
Ramsay's discovery came 20
years after the helium line was
first seen on the sun. News Of the
event was spread around the
world, and it gave people one
more proof of the amazing things
which scientists are able to do.
Since that time, helium gas
has been obtained from various
materials. Some of it is taken
from certain mineral springs.
Several kinds Of minerals will
supply helium after being heated.

The bidding:
North East South West
l club Pass 1spade Pass
3 hearts Pass 3spades Pass
GNT Pass S clubs Pass
6spades All Pass
Miss Brash had such a big
hand that she decided to make
it as easy as possible for her
partner to respond. She there
fore opened the bidding with one
club instead of a spade.
When her partner bid spades
and rebid them, she took charge
and finally put the hand in a
small slam.
Mr.. Champion got off to his
best opening, the queen of hearts.
Dummy'S ace won and Mrs. Keen
took two rounds of trumps, end
ing on the board. She then led
the ten OF diamonds.
If Mr.. Masters had won with
the ace. the queen could have
been pushed through Mr.. Cham
pion's king on the next lead of
the suit. Eventually, the jack
of diamonds would have pro-
Vided parking place for
dummy's small heart.
But Mr.. Masters did not play
his ace of diamonds. and here
was his reasoning: First, Mrs.
Keen was not laying the hand
down and claiming the rest, so
there was still something to be
done to rack up IL tricks.
There were no tricks for the
defenders in clubs. If Mrs. Keen
had either one or two clubs,
dummy's ace and king would
take care of the situation. If she
had three clubs, then Mr.. Cham
pion could have only two and,
even if they we're the queen and
jack, they would fall under the
ace and king.
So, if the defenders had any
chance at all, their only hope
was to win one diamond and one
heart. If Mrs. Keen had as good
as K-Q-J in diamonds, obviously
the defenders could do nothing
about it. But if Mr.. Champion
had the king of diamonds it was
imperative that he be allowed
to win the first trick in the suit.
Risking the slight chance that
he might be letting Mrs. Keen
make seven-odd. Mr.. Masters
ducked the ten of diamonds and
after that Mrs. Keen had no
chance for her contract.
