Clayton Bank Sets Friday Opening
For Kent's First DRIVEN Facility

Governor ]. Caleb Boggs will
cut the ribbon at the ceremony
marking the opening of a drive
in window at the Clayton Bank
and Trust Company on Friday
at 9 am. This is the first drive
in window installed at any bank
in Kent County and is an indi-
cation of the progressive atti-
tude of the independent bank
in the northern part of the
county. Mayor James Clark
will be in the first car to drive
up to the window and will make
the first deposit, after which it
will be open to the public. The
drive-in window is between
Main Street and Smyrna Aven-
ue, and patrons will enter from
Main Street and leave by Smyr-
ma Avenue. The unique service
marks the elimination of a
modernization program which
was started last year when the
old tellers' windows were re-
placed with modern ones and
the first floor of the bank was
completely remodeled. A large
addition was made to the Sec
ond floor which now includes a
new directors room, offices, and
facilities. A year later the first
floor was re-vamped by opening
a door on Main Street where an
entrance was built, making that
the front of the building. Off

ing this period of modernization

Rotary Presents
$500, 5000 Gifts
To Local Causes

The reports made at the re-
cent assembly of the Smyrna
Rotary Club, with Rex D. Gil
more presiding for the first time
since his election, revealed that
the club had given $500 to the
Little League, and $500 for the
benefit of handicapped children
in the Clayton chapter of the
association for the handicapped.
From the money realized from
the annual auction sale last
year, the club was able to en-
tertain outstanding guests at
the annual Boy Scout dinner, to
purchase one band instrument,
and to provide $58 to send one
boy to the YMCA camp. Pro-
jects for the coming year were
discussed, including continued
sponsorship of the Rotary Little
League baseball team, recon-
the Boy Scout Night,
the annual auction, and many
minor projects. The club ex-
pressed pride in the fact that
three club members have been
to serve on the Kent
County Vocational Committee
to study the possibility of estab-
fishing a Northumberland
High School in Kent County.
They are Lester L. Liefer, Will

Firemen Launch
Financial Drive;
$4,000 Goal Set

The annual financial drive by
the Citizens Hose Company
will start on August 5, the date
moved up two weeks due to the
fact that the state convention
of the Delaware Volunteer Fire
mems Association will be held
here early in September. The
goal will be $4,000. The COM
mittee in charge of the drive
includes Fred Harris, chairman,
Gordon Miller, Fletcher Truax,
and James TruaX. Members OF
the fire company and the auxil-
iary will call on residents and
business places in the area. Let
ters will be mailed to citizens
living in the area protected by
the local volunteers late in July.
Anyone desiring to mail their
contribution may do so, and it
is the hope of the committee
that residents in a position to do
so may meet the solicitors with
their contribution, so that they
need not call back the second
time. The drive is of the ut
most importance and a good re-
sponse is needed as the COM
pany has added $4,000 worth
of new equipment for the pro-
lection of the people of this
area. The facilities of the COM
pany are ready and waiting to
serve the people in the event of
an emergency with a well train
ed crew of firemen, four modern
and we'll equipped fire trucks;
one new and we'll equipped res
cue truck; well equipped fire
house, always ready for use as
an emergency center; also, the
use of H. H. Senger tank wag-
ons for hauling water to rural
fires.

regard to public institutions,

CARNATIONS as well.
Something along this line
did. in fact, occur just recently
when a Federal Judge slapped
punitive damages on a labor
union for allegedly discriminat-
ing against Negroes in It's work
promotion policies.
In light Of the general trend.
a recently reported New Jersey
case stands out as q legal land
mark in favor Of the view that
private organizations should be
allowed to discriminate all they
want to.
Eastern Star Case
The actual situation devel-
oped In Trenton some time ago.
1t involved q group Of So men
and women who wanted to or
ganize as a local chapter of
the Eastern Star, a Masonic
affiliate. When the officers of
existing chapters of the organ
ization denied its petitions. the
group sued a number Of the
officers, charging wrongful ex-
clusion from a. fraternal order
New Jerseys top court turned
this contention down cold in a
decision which has few, if any,
exact precedentS.
Regardless of any "underly-
ing social ethics" the court
said, 1t could not condone the
theory of those bringing the
suit. 1t pointed out that the
circumstances of the case were
entirely different from cases
involving wrongful expulsion
from a social or fraternal order.
That Is, being wrongfully ex-
PEELED from an organization is
not the same thing as being
denied admission to it,.
Exclusion Upheld
The court asserted that vol
untary associations generally
have an unquestionable right to
exclude anyone they choose
from membership mo matter
how arbitrary or unjust the ex-
cluSion." 1t added that the law
accords rights and status" to
members of such organizations
which it cannot and should not
extend to mere aspirants." Any
other rule, it was implied,

the idea that only in the theatre

time is now, the place is any

Before the curtain rises. let
us study the two characters who
will try out for the lead. Are
they to be cast sentimentally or
realistically?
Both have similar backgrounds
of farm life and hard work. They
grew up in the depression times,
one became involved with the
law through series of bogus
checks. He moved away and
changed his name. He becomes
a lawyer and enters county and
state governmental offices.

ago, he was the Civil Defense
director.
While campaigning. one man
spends most of the time lashing
at local newspapers. He assumes
a martyrs role as he completely
ignores the pertinent issues of
taxation, slum clear ance, or ed
ucation.
The other candidate appears
at meetings and rallies present
ing concrete plans for improving
governmental oper ations. He
exhibits sensible approaches to
the issues and he is fortnight
with sound proposals.
These two men have few
days before the final rehearsal
ends. The bit players have been

A route for the Districts
connection with a projected new
Washington Baltimore express
way Is expected to be pinpointed
by late this year.
The District has asked the
Clarkeson Engineering Co., a
lconsultant, to chart a path for
the proposed new freeway with
in the city, 1t was disclosed
yesterday.
The limited-access, six-lane
link will strike out from the
projected inner loop highway
at q point somewhere between
Kansas avenue ana Bladens-
burg road Me-. officials said.
This is the area west Of the
AnacoStia River which District
oficials had favored. Some
consideration also had been
given to a location east of the
river.
The $S2,50O Clarkeson con-
tract was awarded after con-
sultation with Maryland road
officials, with whom the Dis
trict is working closely on the
project.
The new intercity route is
still netirely in the talking
stage. No provision for it has
been made in the Districts
present six-year highway pro-
gram or the 13-year program
of which the six-year plan is a
start. But the project, which
would be financed 90 per cent
by Federal funds, could be
added to the 13-year plan with
no great difficulty, officials said.
