general elections have a fixed and
determinable date. Special cleo

partment Of Elections could not be
held responsible foY predicting when
such an election would be called so
as to make available the voting
machines one month prior to such
date. Similarly, primary elections
vary in date. Certainly, the legis-

While Senator Frear has a good
record in the Senate, and is noted
for his honesty and sincerity, per-
sonally favor the candidacy of Jus
tice Tunnell, who also is honest
and sincere. l believe that Justice
Tunnel will be a more vigorous
campaigner than Senator Frear, if
he becomes the Democratic can
didate, and l believe that if he is
elected his voting record will be
more in accord with the philosophy
of the Democratic Party.
IF the majority of the delegates
at the state convention choose Sen
ator Frear as our candidate, l will
work whOleheartedly for mis- cleo
tion. I believe that my feeling is
shared by the majority of the Dem
ocratic City Committee, and by the
majority of the Democrats and
liberal Independents in Whining

Justice Tunnell also received the
support of the Sussex County Dem
ocratic Committee at a session of
that body held in Georgetown last

Tall Cedars Won
Festival Prize

The Band and Ranger Units of
Evergreen Forest No. 49, Tall Ced-
ars of Lebanon, took part in the
Delmarva Chicken Festival parade
held in Georgetown on Wednesday
evening, June 23rd. The Units were
headed by Grand Tall Cedar Charles
E. Saunders of ChincOteague, Va,
Senior Deputy G. T. c. Jack HOugh
OF Georgetown, Junior Deputy
G. T. c. Thomas Roadway of Dover.
District Representative Harland Le-
Compte of Cambridge, Past Grand
Tall Cedar II. Edward Mau!l of
Lewes, and Past District Represen-
tative Edward B. Green of George
town.
Evergreen's Band, under the di-
rectiOn of William E. Marsh of
Seaford, former Navy Band di-
rector, won the first prize of 500
in the senior band division. This
band is one of the best known in
Delaware, having won many prizes
at the National Tall Cedar Con-
ventions in Atlantic City.
The Forest Rangers, under the
capable leadership of Major Roy
Palmer of RehOboth, presented a
fine appearance in the line of
march. This is one of the outstand-
ing Ranger Units in the Tall Cedar
organization. 1t was honored by
winning fourth prize at the Nation

parties in the holding Of primary
elections this year to nominate can
didates to be voted for at the gem
eral election to be held on Tuesday.
Nov. 2, 1854.
1t is clear that voting machines
are to be used eventually in primary
elections. Is Del. G. Sec. 5OO4 as
amended, provides in part: Voting
machines shall be used throughout
the state in all general and special
elections, in municipal elections in
the City of Wilmington, and in
primary elections held under the
provisions of Chapter 81 of this title
in those districts where a contest
exists - The question which Won
have presented, however, is the
problem which arises from Is Del.
c.. See. 5005 (b) relating to the
time when voting machines must be
first used. This section provides in
part as follows: :. -. Thereafter,
not later slan Sept. 1, 1853, the
Department of Elections shall certi-
fly to the Levy Court the bid to be
accepted and the Levy Court shall
award the rental or purchase con-
tract. Such machines shall be de-
livered in such time that they will
be available at least one month
prior to the next election
"The difficulty arises because it is
not clear from the underlined words
in the statute above whether or not
the election referred to is the next
general election or the next primary
election. AS / understand it, the De-
partment of Elections had original
ly felt that the phrase referred to
the next general election. AS a re-
suit of this date only 55 voting ma
chimes have been delivered and the
ShOup Voting Machine Corporation
does not plan to complete delivery
of the remaining 26O machines until
July 80. 1854. In review of the fact
that the primary elections may be
fixed as early as July II, 1854, it
would be difficult if not impossible
to comply with this statute If the
voting machines must be available
