DEMOCRATS TO
HEAR KENNEDY
Senator John f. Kennedy To
Be Speaker at States
Jackson Day Dinner
THURSDAY, MAY 9

u. S. Senator John F. Kennedy
Of Massachusetts, was officially
named Monday as principal speak
er for the Jefferson-Jackson Day
dinner at Wilmington Armory,
Thursday, May 9, sponsored by
the Democratic State Committee.
William ]. McClafferty, Jr., chair
man of the committee on arrange
ments, said that the popular
young man who made a strong
bid for the Democratic vice pres
idential nomination last year, fin
ally arranged his affairs to appear
in Delaware. I'VE are most for
tunate to have a man of Senator
Kennedy's calibre," McClafferty
said. Because of his very busy
schedule, we cooperated with him
by giving him several dates from
which to choose to come here,
and that is how he was secured"
Mr.. McClafferty also pointed
out. as did Garrett E. Lyons, state
Democratic chairman in a speech
last week, that there will be only
one featured speaker on the JET
ferson-Jackson Day program, ana
Mr.. Kennedy draws that assign
ment.
I'VE are depending on him to
bring the message of the evening
to Democrats from all over the
state. The rest of the evening
following dinner will be given over
To a program of entertainment
and dancing" Mr.. McClafferty
said. After a meeting at wnicn
other committee chairmen VIII be
announced, the full program Will
be prepared.
Senator Kennedy is member
of a prominent Boston family
long associated in the political
arena. His younger brother Rob
ert Kennedy, is currently counsel
to the committee investigating
the trouble in unions throughout
the country, and his father, JOS
eph P. Kennedy, is former Am
bassador to Great Britain.
During World War II, he serv-
ed in the u. S. Navy as a PT
boat commander in the South
Pacific. He was decorated twice
for the serious injuries he receiv-
ed when his boat was rammed in
two while attacking Japanese

before the Senate as the current
week opened.
Mr.. Frear pointed out that the
further advantages seen under the
bill would be to broaden public
understanding of how funds are
handled by the various Federal
Departments. The Joint Budget
Committee would study appropri-
alton requests. analyze spending
programs and compile data on
agency activities. 1t would also
review the conformity of Federal
programs with the legislative
authority under which they are
established. The Joint Committee
would advise the Appropriation
Committees and other members
of Congress for their information
and guidance in approving vari-
Gus requests.
Senator Frear expressed the
hope that if the bill is passed, it
will promote more economic and
cient utilization of funds which
American taxpayers contribute to
the support of their national gov
ernment in Washington.
In other remarks the Senator
referred briefly to pending legis-
lation designed to stimulate the
availability of mortgage funds
for housing construction. The
Senator said that a number of
home builders in Delaware and
other states are concerned over
their inability to secure financial
assurances for home buyers and
that as a result the number of
new housing units is being reduc-'
ed. The Senator explained that
pertinent legislation is now pend
ing before the Senate Banking
and Currency Committee and 9TH
er committees of the Congress.

Suicide
HYDE Showed Under In School PhOen
Election BY Bishop Gerber

Ill health was given as pos
sible cause of suicide Of 81
year old Phoenix man who was
found hanging from an orange
tree, last Saturday afternoon,
on North 24th Street.
The suicide victims body was
identified as that of Walter r.
.Merriweather, 1917 East Adams.
The body was discovered by the
dead mans brother, Rankin
Merriweather, 14341a East Jet-
ferSon.
Mr.. Merriweather had been
ailing according to his wife for
some time. The recent attack
was presumably the flu, altho
he had not been seriously i'll,
but had been off his job about
a week.
Mrs. Merriweather said the
only thing about her husbands
action which arounSed suspicion
was during breakfast, WedneS-
day morning, before she left for
work. they had a family discus
sion in which he asked if she
had forgiven him for the wrong
things he had done since their
