Rain


The ch ances of getting
caught in the rain will be high
er this Labor Day than usual,
mathematically speaking. Ac-
cording to the u. S. Weather
Bureau, rainy weather occurs
on an average of one out Of three
Labor Day weekends, and the
last two Labor Days have been
free from rain.
Rain may or may not ruin
holiday picnics and outings.
But it can and does tie traffic
in knots by obscuring drivers
vision and slowing cars down
to a crawl. Worst yet, it causes
many accidents when drivers
can't see clearly.
This warning, issued by the
! Highway Wis b bility Bureau
points out that 600 of driving
decisions depend on sight. Rain
brings added problems with
wiper-streaked windshields that
blur drivers vision.
Recent findings of National
Safety Council accent the i'm
portance of good vision. In a
study of vehicles involved in
traffic accidents. where OBJ
structed visibility was a factor,
the Council reported that asa
percent of all such accidents
involved rain, snow, etc, on the
windshield. The same conditions
accounted for 37.4 per cent of
the deaths.
Ineffective windshield wipers
cause abnormal showdown and
multiply the hazards facing
drivers during bad weather.
The Highway Visibility Bureau
in a survey reported that a
ma jority of cars more than a
year old have ineffective wip-
ing equipment that merely
smears or streaks the wind
shield. While windshield wipers
Of new-model cars quickly re-
move blurring road splash, the
big problem with old cars is to
learn why the wipers streak the
windshield and have a service
man correct the condition be-
fore an emergency occurs.
Now - thanks to research
salty engineers ineffective
windshield wiping can be easily
discovered and corrected. As
soon as wiper blades start to
streak or smear. drivers are
advised TO stop at the next gas
station and correct the trouble.
If your car is fairly new, you
may simply need new wip-
er blades or wiper blade refills.
But, if your car is more than a

New regulations designed to
speed up the issuance Of non
immigrant visas for people
wishing to visit the United
States will soon go into effect
according to a recent announce
ment by the Bureau Of Security
and Consular Affairs, Depart
ment of State. Among other
things, the new regulations
provide for q simplified visa
stamp, and improved procedures
for revalidating and transfer
ring visas. Consistent with the
1854 Presidential directive cal
ling for encouragement of tour
ism and travel among all coun-
tries, the revised regulations
will support President Eisen-
hower's designation Of 1860 as
"Visit the United States of
America Year."
Earlier steps taken by the
Department to expedite the
issuance of tourist visas and to
encourage travel to the U. S.
included the adoption of a
greatly shortened and simpli-
fled application form, and free
tourist visas valid for any num-
Der Of visits within a period of
four years. Preliminary figures
for the year just ended show
that more than one-half million
non-immigrant visas were is
sued to tourists and others
coming to the United States
temporarily. Surely the Depart
ment is to be commended for its
efficient handling of these
many applications!

for the 2O0,000th telephones in
stallation, pointed out that seventy
years elapsed between the intro
duction of telephone service in
Delaware and the installation of
the 100000 telephone in the state.
1T took only eleven years for
| the number of telephones in SER
vice to double and reach the pres
ent figure" he said.
The telephone was first introduce
ed in Delaware in April, 1878, by
William T. Westbrook, then Will
mington manager of the telegraph
company.
The new communications medium
got off to a comparatively slow
start but the first telephone switch
board was placed in operation at
Wilmington in 1879 and the system
began to spread in the following
year when the first line was ex-
tended outside the city to the Gar
rett Snuff Factory at Yorklyn.
Success of this venture created
a demand for similar lines and
New Castle County was soon
honeycombed with local telephone
networks which later extended
through Kent and Sussex Coun-
ties.
In those early days, each COM
munity operated its own telephone
company and there was no sys-
tenn of intercommunication. The
telephone companies did not oper-
ate beyond the limits of the COM
munity in which the central office
was situated.
Harry A. Richardson, of the
Richardson and Robbins Company,
holder of an interest in the Dover
Telephone Company, undertook to
unite the small community SER
vices into single company. He
organized the Diamond State Tele-
phone Company in March, 1897,
and established complete tele-
phone system which connected key
points throughout the Delaware
Maryland-Virginia Peninsula south
of the Delaware-Chesapeake Canal.
The American Bell Telephone
Company, predecessor of the A
merican Telephone and Telegraph
Company, was weaving a nation
wide telephone system at this time
and, in 1905 the Diamond State
Company arranged with the Ameri-
can Company for the connection of
Delaware telephones to the grow
ing Bell System.
In 1912 the Diamond State Tele-
phone Company sold to the Chesa-
peake and Potomac Company all
its properties in Maryland and
Virginia At the same time, it pur-
chased the properties of the Della
ware and Atlantic Telephone and
Telegraph Company which served
