INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY
CLOSED NEW RIVER INLET

Wilmington-The scheduled clos
ing to navigation of the Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway between
Browns Inlet and New River April
24-26 will be effected, it has been
announced by the Wilmington Dis
trict, Corps of Engineers, on the
premise that the scheduled U. S.
Marine Corps training maneuver
is a military necessity" and any
intermittent opening would serious
ly interfere with that training.
The district office pointed out
that past practice of the Marines
has been to throw series of pom
toon bridges across the waterway
to carry tanks, trucks and similar
equipment. Any opening of these
bridges for passage of boats would
impose loss of six to seven hours.
Such step, the District emphas-
lied, would create unbalanced tim
ing, an element of vital Importance
in military operations.
The closing orGer will start at
1901 am. April "a, and will end
at IL o'clock midnight April &c.
Closing of the waterway to navi-
cation occurs infrequently and is
allowed only under the most urgent
circumstances, the District ex-
planned.

TUBERCULOSIS
CONTROL PLAN
New Wonder Drugs, New
Methods of Treatment, Can
Bring TB Under Control
CHRISTMAS SEAL MONEY

Dean William o. Penrose, pres
ident of the Delaware Statewide
Chest x-ray Survey stressed
that Delaware's tuberculosis
control program is at a crucial
point this year. This coming
year can mark the beginning of
the eradication of tuberculosis.
Techniques are now availab BILE
which can come very close to
making tuberculosis a disease of
the past" Dean Penrose contin-
ued. "New wonder drugs, new
methods of treatment, better case
finding techniques like Delaware's
recent X-ray Survey can bring TB
under control and keep it there.
How soon complete control will
come in Delaware depends on how
much money and manpower is
available to do the job," Dean
Penrose added. "And it is a tre-
mendous job we face, for if there
is just one active case of tuber-
culosis that is not properly iso-
lated or treated, you and and
our families can catch the dis
ease. The money you give for
Christmas Seals can help make
complete TB control a reality"
Dean Penrose said. Your Christ
mas Seal money will help buy
larger TB control program than
ever before-more hospital x-rays,
more nursing service for tubercu-
losis patients, a bigger and bet
ter rehabilitation program to pre-
pare tuberculosis patients for nor
NAL everyday living, and better
research, case finding, and thera-
py projects of many kinds. I'VE

TO IMPROVE ROADS
Bids Asked on Improving Several
Earth Roads in State


The State Highway Department
is planning to improve the exist
ing earth road leading from
Ford's Corner, along the Hartly
to Kenton highway to the Mary
land line at Pearson's Grove. The
project is one of two for which
the Department received bids
on December 8th, the other prof.
ect being the improvement of the
Murphy-Wilson road in northern
New Castle county. The improve
ment of the road from Ford's
Corner to the Maryland line will
provide another hard surfaced
traffic artery in the northwestern
section of Kent County. Highway
Department plans provide for the
present earth road to be reshaped
and given a twenty foot bitumin-
Gus surface for the entire dis
tance of 4.70 miles. With the
completion of this project there
will be another hard surfaced
traffic artery leading from U. S.
Route 13 to the northwestern
section of Kent county. At the
present time this highway is hard
surfaced from Denney's Corner,
about three miles north of Dover,
to Ford's Corner with the exist
ing highway intersecting the Sal
