The Richards mission to study

The HOLSTER party had to fol-

The fact the effort was made
to meet with Afghan leaders in
these circumstances helped

mountainous kingdom, Mr.. Hol-
lister believes.
I'VE have friends in Afghanis-
tan and the country is having
difficulty making up its mind
which way to CO. he said. He
referred to recent Soviet over
lures to supply Afghanistan with
a reported 500 million worth of
aid.
He said he could not say
whether the Russians were fol-
lowing through on their offer.
Wants to Help Transport
Mr. Hollister reported he has
been pushing very hard to use
Asian development funds to help
develop the transportation sys-

He noted the United States
already is developing an airport
at Kandahar. ICA is now trying
TO arrange steel-mesh mats for

He said his Office also is study

Secretaries Plan
Natl Observation

Calling attention to the vital
roles which secretaries play in the
American business life, Governor
]. Caleb Boggs has declared the
week of April. 21-27 as National
Secretaries Week, it was announ-
ced today.
Governor Boggs also said that
Wednesday, April "a, should be
particularly marked as National
Secretaries Day, "When," he con-
tinued, 1T is my hope that al en-
plOyers in the State CT Delaware
will fully honor the First Lady of
business-the Amerlcan secre-
tary."
The proclamation follows:
WHEREAS, in keeping with the
best traditions of their profession,
secretaries throughout the United
States are shouldering vital re-
sponsibilities and
WHEREAS, they are performing
important roles in commerce, in
dustry and government and are
bringing to their positions a wider
knowledge of world affairs of bus
mess than was considered a neces-
sary part of their sphere in the
past: and
WHEREAS, the American secre-
tary is an integral part of the
economy which has brought to
the world "The American Way of
Life" free enterprise
freedom of choice and the
highest standards of living exist
ing in today's troubled world; and
WHEREAS, in order to honor
secretaries for their diligence; to
pay tribute to those constantly
striving to improve their skills
and abilities in order to better
equip themselves as part Of the
management team; a week is to
be set aside to recognize them
now
THEREFORE,, /, j. CALEB

ther, set aside particularly We'd

office equipment, he said.
eve believe this efficiency in
serving members is unequalled by
any other similar business" he
asserted.
Mr.. Maybee said the dramatic
growth of Blue Cross and Blue
Shield has been accompanied by
an increasing use of modern busi-
ness machine equipment to support
personal service to members. Cur
rently, Blue Cross has more than
250,000 members in Delaware and
handles an average of 1000 hospi-
tal-surgical-medical cases monthly
from all parts of the world.
Blue Cross, which was organized
in 1885, started getting automatic
equipment with an electric sorter
in 1889. This is used for securing
statistical rate data. Increased
membership and new complexities
in contracts presented the possi-
bility of achieving more efficiency
through the use of more automatic
equipment. Now Blue Cross and
Blue Shield uses advanced elec-
tronic tabulating equipment, and
other aids to modern business
management including the tele-
type, automatic filing machines and
micro-filming.
The next step, it is expected, will
be installation of electronic equip
ment to afford speedier access to
membership records.
Naturally, the staff of the Del
aware Blue Cross-Blue Shield Plan
takes satisfaction in being able to
offer comparison of its methods,
operational efficiency and overall
business standards with those Of
any business organization, any
where" Mr.. Maybee said.
He told the members: "This is
your plan. 1t will continue its poll
cy Of looking toward future inn
provement in methods to give you
the best possible service at the
least possible cost-through the
use of every modern means"
The annual report shows that
during 1856 Blue Cross, the hos
pital plan, used 91.7 per cent of its
income to pay members hospital
bills in the amount of $3,990,963.
Only e.3 per cent of incone-$272,- :
225-was used for operating ex-
penses, and $86.644 was put in the
reserve fund.
In the Blue Shield surgical
medical plan, 1927 per cent of in
come was used to pay members
bills amounting to $2,435, 1862. OPP
Grating expenses required 9.5 per
cent, and 7.S per cent went to re-
serves. In the two plans combined,
SS1 per cent of income went to
payment of members bills, 7.6 per
cent was used for operating ex-
penses, and 4.3 per cent was re-
tanned for reserves.

DOUer Planning For An
nuGL Celebration On
May As
(Continued from page onel

IL that year the construction of
this building, begun in 1887, was
being Completed. A quarrel soon
developed between the General
Assembly and the Levy Court OF
the Codnty over a question of ex-
penses.
The fight became so bitter that
the sheriff, John Clayton-with
drawn sword, it is reported-de-
manded possession of the building
so that the workmen could get on
with their labOrs.
The General Assembly's temper
also rose-and in high wrath, the
legislators pulled out, presumably
lock, stock and records. and hur-
ried on over to Duck Greek Cross
Roads. Tavernkeeper Thomas Hale
welcomed the legislators with open
arms.
The House of Representatives
seething over the situation, drew
up a resolution, to the effect that
the General Assembly should not
be subjected to 'the caprice of any
individual i'll the State and that il
will not be proper for them to hold
their sessions in the town of Do
yer until the Levy Court of Kent
County or some other proper au-
thority shall appropriate to their
use the chambers in the said
Court House"
The State Senate, however, hav-
ing cooled off bit, didn't pass this
resolution and within a few
months, the differences between the
General Assembly and the sheriff
were settled-and the Legislature
returned to the court house which
continued as a dual purpose build
ing until 1873 when it became sole
ly the State House of Delaware.
AS in the past, the Dover Green
flanked by the State House, the
Kent County Court House, the ole
Ridgely House, and shaded by an
cient elms, will be the heart of the
two-day "at home" celebration OF
Dover over the first weekend oi
May.
Here will be held maypole and
folk dances and here, visitors will
find it convenient to meet friends
and start their tour of the old
homes of the capital.
Guide pamphlets will enumerate
each one of the open homes and
public buildings, giving a brief
history of each and pointing ul
some of the folk lore of the COM
munity.

Delaware collected s124.96 per

stantially less than the national
average of $685.. Delaware put
out $76.66 per capita for education,
compared with only STATS per
capita in the nation as a whole.
Again, this is understandable, it
is shown, since Delaware supports
wholly some segments of educa-
tion and contributes literally to
the whole program.
Another S34.6S per capita was
spent for highways, compared to a
national average of $32.74, which
seems to be pretty well in line,
when the projects undertaken and
the proportiopate population are
considered.

state spent 1858 per capita as

average.

by providing for training at train
ing school similar to that of the
State Police Dept and merits the
careful, unbiased, non-partisan
consideration of this important
legislation.
Regarding the "anti-gambling
act, the Grand Jury report states,
This proposed legislation merits
consideration for the reason that
it strikes at The very roots and in
ception of crime within our state
However, we take issue with the
provisions in this Act concerning
the legalizing of pin ball machines
where such pin ball machines may
be played for a free game or free
replay as prize. We know that
recreation is a thing of value and
to play game of chance on a pin
ball machine which may give the
right of a free play constitutes
playing for a prize, to wit, recrea-
tion which is a thing of value and
constitutes gambling as such. Pin
ball machines have been gradually
made more and more attractive and
alluring, because of the fanciful
nature by which they are made and
the gadgets and lights contained
thereon. In many, many cases,
banks of pin ball machines can be
found in our local restaurants,
gasoline service stations and in
other places of business near our
public schools which attract our
| teenagers and it is our honest opin-
ion that these machines are con-
tributing to the development of
gambling instincts in our children
and such practices should not be
permitted"
