A better chicken house than
ever before is the aim of a COM
pany which Albert Makens of
Philadelphia was representing here
on Monday. All latest improve
ments are said to make the idea
a very popular one, but we didn't
hear whether he will establish one
here or not.
Our earliest cannery history
dates back to 1888 when an en-
terprising firm from Aberdeen,
Md. decided to put one of their
plants here. 1t was promptly
erected and for many years it
gave employment to large force
of home workers. The firm was
known as Wells, Herring & Com
pany, and they gradually enlarged
the plant until it gave employ
ment to about 30 people. Their
products were chiefly corn and
tomatoes, but one season they
canned sweet potatoes. 1t was a
fine local enterprise from the
start. Later on the plant was
bought and operated by the Phil
lips Packing Company of CAM
bridge, Md.
Historic Smyrna often declared
holiday when day was set
aside to be market day. On those
occasions the thrifty people from
sections all around would go to
the busy town to do their weekly
or monthly dealing. Vehicles of all
types were pressed into service to
transport the would-be buyers
from various places to get the
bargains there. Every kind of ve-
hicle was used to haul the throngs
of buyers to the stores there. 1t
seemed that everybody, or nearly
everybody quit work to go to
Smyrna to get into the bargain
class. Some sixty or seventy peach
wagons were put into use to haul
the many shoppers. We recall

Income Tax on Damaged

Der destroyed by such casualties
as hurricane Hazel should be
treated IN income tax reports. The
matter came up at the Kent
County Income Tax Short Course
Meeting, and the following an
swer has been provided by Mr.. H.
L. Brown, District Director for
the Internal Revenue Service at
Wilmington:
"The basis for determining the
amount of the timber loss is the
basis of the timber destroyed, less
any insurance or salvage received
To make our explanation as SIM
pie as possible, we shall assume
that the timber tract was pur-
chased after March 1, 1913, and
that no timber has been removed
from the tract for sale or for use
in the taxpayers business since
that date. We shall assume fur
ther that no cruise of the timber
has previously been mads. Ir
such circumstances the taxpayer
must first determine the basis Of
his timber by allocating thereto
the proper portion of the purchase
price he paid for land, timber
and any building. thereon. Next he
must determine as of the date
Immediately preceding the casual
ty the board feet of merchantable
timber in the tract. The third
step is to divide the allocated
basis of the timber by the board
feet to determine the cost pei

thousand board feet. Finally he
estimates the number of beard
feet destroyed in the casualty, ap-
ply the cost per thousand board
feet previously arrived at, and
Immediately, if there is no SAL
wage or insurance received, has
his deductible loss. In caIculat-
ing casualty loss, the taxpayer
may not claim a deduction fer in
cidental or minor damage to the
trees, or for mere retardation of
growth.
''In Agricultural Handbook No.
50, issued by the Forest Service,
u. S. Department of Agriculture,
the following helpful statement is
made: "A consulting forester may
be employed to estimate the dam

stantial amount of work is involv-
ed. But in many cases the local
district forester, forest warden, or
other representatives of the State
Forestry Department will be able

itself during the following grow

DAILY Worker" published an
attack on Israel reminiscent
of Gerald L. K. Smith and 9TH

lunatic fringe. 1t accused Is
rael of attacking Egypt and
said the policy of the Egypt

ant contribution to world
peace" Israel was accused OF
acting as Americas tool "to
make Egypt another Guate-

Meyer Viln er, one of the
few Israel Communists, wrote
that even the Egyptian COM
mando attacks on peaceful Is

the basic character of the pres
ent policy of the Egyptian gov
ernment, which is a policy OF
independence and resistance
to the formation of aggressive
military alliances.

broadcast a Tass dispatch ac-
cusing Israel of provocative
actions aimed at her Arab

Western circles which are try

tween Israel and the A ra b

Tending security in that area"

commons that gave rise to the

Many states have considered
changing, but it is hard to adam
don a tradition so closely con-
nected with the growth of demo
cratic government for hundreds
of years.
Because it is so hard to change
once adopted, Alaskans will want
to choose carefully in drafting
a new constitution. It would seem
that a single legislative house,
by Supreme Court and Cover
nor's veto, as well as by popu-
lar initiative and referendum,
should provide simple and de
mocratic government.
Since the charter of the legis-
lature is one of the most impor-
tant aspects of constituiton-mak-
ing, his subject should be dis
cuSsed further.
