The other day we had to go
to the RKO Palace to see that
superb actor, Horace Mcmahon,
in a sketch called Three Time
Loser" by James Davis, the
greatest sketch writer since Will
lard Mack. We stood in the back
of the old theater. leaning on
that curved marble rail, and
heard every whisper just as
plainly as though we were in the
first row. The Palace is 40 years
old but it is still one of the most
wondrous playhouses in New
York and it occurred to me that
the theater is crying for a
musical comedy on its stage
rather than the combination of
movies and vaudeville it now
offers.
1t was built in 1918 and de-
signed by Thomas Lamb, a thea
ter architect who had to learn
about acoustics before the micro
phone was invented. It has 1913
seats, bigger than many musical
houses and, even with the old
fashioned boxes, the sight lines
are purely perfect. 1t has a
tabled history. 1t was here that
Sarah Bernhard had to be paid
pro rata in gold before every
show and also had to have a red
carpet leading from dressing
room to stage. 1t was here that
every great entertainer head
lined, with the odd exception OF
AL Jolson. Norman, Berle and
hundreds of other current stars
appeared on its stage.
All the great actors played it
too, from Ethel Barrymore in
1.-THE Five Pound Look" to the
silent movie stars trying to
develop voices for the talkies.
It's right there on the main stem
mad, with the older theaters
going to films and TV. or being
torn down to make parking lots,
some musical producer should
rent or buy it.

There have been a number of
inquiries concerning water stains
on carpets, and with fall and win
ter approaching there may be
many occasions on which little
knowledge on the cause of water
stains may prevent such happen.
ing to you
An unexpected Storm catches you
away from home and your living
room windows are wide open
Junior carefully hangs" his drip
ping slicker and hood on the hall
carpet-Great Aunt Mary near
sightedly knocks a glass of water
to the floor-or baby has an acci-
dent. The end result is the same
in all cases-the makings of wa
ter stain on your rug or carpet.
The National Institute of Rug
Cleaning has made an extensive
investigation of this problem. The
Institutes research department
points out that a permanent stain
may be caused by water soaking
through to the backing of a rug,
unless the water is dried up imme-
diately. The staining is explained
in this manner: The water that
gets through to the backing rises
again to the surface through the
tufts which act as wicks. When it
does, it may bring soluble color
ing matter and other impurities
from the back of the rug The wa
ter evaporates, but the colored inn
purities will not.
These colored substances collect
at the tips of the rug tufts. There
they react Chemically with the f.
bers and dyes of the rug to cause
discolorationS and stain which in
many instances will be indelible.
The best way to prevent stain
ing is to blot up all the water pos
sible at the time of the accident.
This should be done with clean,
white, unstarched terry cloth,
white absorbent tissues, or white
paper towels.
When the spot has been dried as
much as possible, place fresh alb
sorbent, towels or tissues on the
wet area. Place weights on the
towels to insure close contact be-
tween this blotter and the rug. The
towels must remain in place until
the spot has completely dried
AS the remaining moisture rises,
it will continue into the towel, car
rying the discoloring impurities
with it.
Drying of damp spots on rugs
may be speeded considerably by di-
recting a fan or the blowing air
from vacuum against the BACK
of the rug.

Incredible as it may sound, my

necessary to forget the idea of

across some new welfare program.
This idea must come as shock
to all those people who have been
pleased that President Eisenhower
this year achieved a balanced bud
get and a substantial debt reduc-
ton, thus enabling us to look for
ward to tax reduction.
"My opponent made a big point
of the fact that Harry Truman had
balanced the budget several times.
However, Democratic Senator Har-
ry Byrd, an expert in these matters,
has called the Eisenhower debt re-
duction the first bona fide debt re-

leagues who control the 18th Gen
eral Assembly by an overwhelming
majority. He is trying, however, to
disassociate himself with that rec
ord by disregarding it in his pub
lie utterances so as not to offend
those who are running on the same
ticket with him.
This he shall not be permitted
to do. I call upon him to state pub
licly whether he approves of the
actions and the methods by which
the Democrats, without regard for
the Constitution of this state, grab
bed control of the Highway Depart
ment, the Departments of Election
in all three counties and the Liquor
Commission.
Those commissions and depart
ments were all properly constituted
and no charge was ever made
against anv of the members of un-
fitness to hold office or improper
conduct while in office. The sole
purpose of these ripper bills-all
of which I vetoed-was to grab pO-
litical power without regard for
the due processes of orderly gov-
ernment
THUS far in this campaign. -
Governor Boggs continued, my
opponent has reflected a willing
ness to talk about agriculture and
farm prices-in which he quoted
inaccurate information, as he now
knows but refrains from admitting.
also in this campaign he has
been willing to talk quite freely
about his program to sell state
bonds only at low interest rates
when he must know by nov that
this simply cannot be done without
delaying indefinitely and unneces-
sarily the programs for construct
ing our schools, highways, college
buildings and other institutions.
"My opponent in this campaign
has also been anxious to endorse
such principles of good govern
ment as civil service and central
chasing-without making any
effort to tell the people that both
of these pieces of legislation were
recommended to the General AS
sembly by me and without explain
ing why he endorses such legisla-
tion which his own Democratic
colleagues defeated.
"The people of this state" Gov
ernor Boggs concluded, "have a
right to know what the issues of
this campaign really are and where
my opponent stands on those is
sues. They have a right to know
what the issues of this campaign
really are and where my opponent
stands on those issues. They have
a right to know whether he en-
dOrses and condones the actions
of the very men who are running
on the same ticket with him or
whether he condemns their parti-
san political actions. and disregard

then po;:sitt 0ut that, in recent years,

sion upon cwhich a grateful nation
could pay tribute to the memory

Mention is made of the fact that
Delawareans, like good Ameri-
cans elsewhere in this great ma
tiOn of ours, have continued to

servance to Veterans Day and all
that it stands for"
The v.F.W. and American Legion
leaders have also pointed out to
Mr.. Horty that their organizations
have, from the start, shown much
interest in the designating of the
Delaware River Bridge as a Me-
mortal Bridge and in having the
site appropriately marked by a
marked honoring the war dead of
the two states which the bridge
Joins. In view of this continued
interest and the fact that their or
CARNATIONS are dedicated to keep
ing ever green the memory of our
honored war dead. the two COM
manders have, they say, natural
ly assumed that the War Memorial
Plaque, when completed, would be
dedicated on either a Veterans
d. November 11th) or a Me-
mortal Day (aIay 30th), the only
appropriate dates, in their opin-
ion, for such dedication.
The letter to Mr.. Horty from
Comdr. Hugg also calls attention
to the fact that certain disting-
uished members of the clergy, rep
resentatives of all three major
American faiths, who, in the
V.F.W. leaders opinion. gave out
standing service to state and ma
ton. as chaplains in our armed
forces and then continued to serve,
in Deacetime and as clergymen-
civilians, as spiritual leaders of
veterans organizations and veter-
ans groups" should have "promin-
ent roles in any exercises staged
