A more auspicious time
could not have been chosen
for the sixth annual confer
ence Of the Southeast Asia

was the consensus of guests

viSers' meeting precedes the
second phase of the confer
ence which opens Tuesday
with convening of the
SEATO Council of Foreign
Ministers.
Diplomats and high rank
ing Americans at the party
expressed agreement with
the sense of Secretary Gates
welcoming remarks to the
conferees earlier in the day.
The secretary had pointed
out that one thing %of great

The ranking cabinet officer,
who is seldom seen on the
Washington party circuit,
created quite a stir at the
Argentine Embassy when he
attended the 7-to-9-p.m. re-
ception given by Ambassador
and Mrs. del Carril as part of
a day-long celebration of
Argentina's 150th year.
Mr.. Herter, who stayed
about a quarter of an hour,
was escorted from the eleva-
tor to a place of honor in one
of the Second-fl receiving
rooms where he chatted with
his host and others before
making his departure.
Several regular embassy
party-goers said they could
not recall seeing the Secretary
at a reception since he took
over his present duties.
His appearance was, of
course, highly pleasing to the
Argentines, who are observ-
ing their sesquicentennial
with a variety of programs
this year.

ceremonies in Buenos Aires
and was part of a worldwide

where the accident occurred and
that no employee of the railroad
was waving a lantern or otherwise
warning traffic of danger, although
in the past employees often had
given such warnings at the cross
ing in question These, they say,
are special circumstances not pres
ent in the cited cases.
s'The railroad, on the other hand,
points out that the existence of the
crossing was well known to the
plaintiffs who are residents of the
vicinity, and it maintains that
there is no showing of any negli-
gence on its part.
AS to notification that the cross
ing existed, the usual sign was OBJ
structed by the railroad cars, but
the railroad cars were themselves
large notice of the existence of
danger. Likewise, the facts that
other crossings are better marked
and that other switching opera
tions have been protected by
switchmen with lights do not es-
tablish the existence of negligence

New u of d Irrigation
Bulletin Now Out

What's the story on irrigation
1t all depends.
On one farm a sprinkler irriga-
tion system can increase profits
while on another farm it may be a
costly luxury, according to DR.. Will
liam E. Mcdaniel, chairman of the
department of agricultural eco
nomics, University OF Delaware.
Whether or not to install an ir-
rigation system is a question fac
ing many Delaware farmers today.
To help farmers make the right
decisions about irrigation systems,
the University of Delaware Agri-
cultural Experiment Station has
published a research bulletin en-
titled, Irrigation in Delaware.
The publication is now available.
Write the School of Agriculture,
University of Delaware, Newark,
Delaware, and ask for bulletin
number 335 (T).
DR.. Mcdaniel said the bulletin
discusses costs of operating vari-
Gus irrigation systems and in
cludes comments by farmers on
their experiences with irrigation
systems. Also included are costs
of putting in basic irrigation sys-
TENS contributed by Professor
Ernest N. Scarborough, agricu1-
tural engineer.
The agricultural economists coll
lected facts from more than two
hundred farm records. Potatoes are
the most important irrigated crop
in Delaware. Data was also taken
on other irrigated vegetable crops,
such as tomatoes, green peas, snap
beans, asparagus and watermelons
as well as on field corn, soybeans
and hay.
The bulletin shows the total
amount of money needed to install
an irrigation system. On the small
er farms $481 was invested per
acre while on farms irrigating $50
or more acres, an average of $97
was invested per acre. In other
words, the more acres one system
covers, the less investment required
per acre, DR.. Mcdaniel said.
The operating cost of irrigation
is also less with the larger acre
age For example, it costs S71 per
year to irrigate an acre on farms
with less than 25 acres under ir-
rigation, while it costs around SIS
per acre on farms with $50 or more
acres under irrigation
The bulletin represents a CO.
operative effort of Delaware farm
ers and the University. of Della
ware, DR.. Mcdaniel said.

Judge Andrew Christie has de-
cided in favor of the Pennsylvania
Railroad in the suit brought a
gainst it by David j. Conley and
Louis v. Spencer, both of Milton,
for injuries sustained November
20, 1858, within the town limits of
Milton.
Conley, volunteer fireman, was
on the way to fire in response to
an alarm and was accompanied by
Spencer, chief of the Milton Fire
Co, when his car collided with a
railroad car stopped across the
highway at Chestnut ST., on a sid
ing
The railroad car was one of five
such cars engaged in a shifting op-
GRAFTON on the siding.
Conley and Spencer, through
their attorney, Everett F. Warning
ton, claimed negligence on the part
of the railroad and the railroad
denied this negligence and asked
for a summary judgment in it's
favor which was granted
In his written decision, Judge
Christie stated, 1T is well estab-
lished in Delaware that the mere
presence of railroad cars across a
highway does not establish negli-
gence on the part of the railroad
and the railroad has no duty to
provide lights or signals to warn
travellers.
plaintiffs seek to avoid the ap-
plication of this rule by showing
that no signs marking the cross
ing were visible to the driver of an
automobile on the night of the ac-
cident, that a number of other rail-
road crossings in Sussex County
are better marked than the one
