Dear Dan: I run around with
kids a few years older than l
am and so do a few of my close
friends. These kids are bright
and can think of some pretty neat
things to do.
My parents don't think I should
hang around with them but they
are a lot of fun. What do you
think l should do? = Wondering
at Is.
Dear Wondering: What do 1
Shink you should do? Mind your
parents. If you're 13, your older
friends are probably 10 and II
and to be perfectly frank about
it, teen-agers of your age have
very little in common with older
teen-agers. It's a wonder they
haven't already told you to "get
lost" Stick in your own age
group. You'll have just as much
fun and you'll know you're obey
ing your parents.
Dear Dan: I've been invited
to a formal dance at our high
school next month and would
like Ito know if l should buy my
own corsage or will my date
bring me one? My parents say
hell buy me one. Is that true?
Anxious.
Dear Anxious: The boy should
buy YOU a corsage and I'm sure
he will. You, by the way, should
buy your date a boutonniere, {
flower for his lapel. A carnatior
will do fine.
Dear Dan: My father is being
transferred in his job to out-of.
state city next month and we've
got a problem. He's already rent
ed a house for us and wants m.
mother, my sister and myself III
join him as soon as possible. I'm
a high school senior and will onl.
have five months of school re
manning and 1 want to stay her
and graduate with my class.
1 guess the big reason my par
entS don't want me to stay witt
a friend is because l might &c
into trouble or might not stud,
or something like that. There ism
any reason for them to worry bu
try to tell them that. My buddy
parents said 1 could stay wit
them and I'm sure we woul
make cut fine. What do you thin
l should be able to do?-Walt.
Dear Walt: I'm afraid I'LL hay
to answer your question as
parent and as a parent, 1 SO
your place is with your motht
and father. l realize what
means for you to graduate wit

trial and residential areas. The
hodge-podge of growths in Kent
County in recent years more than
anything else illustrates the criti-
cal need for zoning and planned
development Trailers and trailer
courts have sprung up next to
farms and residences almost over
night. Industries undesirable to
their neighbors have been estab-
lished without the neighbors hav-
ing voice in the location of these
industries and many new desirable
industries have been discouraged
from settling. in Kent County, Del
aware, because the county did not
provide them with the security
that comes from zoning

protect the character of our COM
muinty as it now exists and at the
same time to bring new desirable
industries to Kent County it is
Milford chronicle., 1960-11-04

growth of Kent County should give
serious thought to countrywide
Water and Sewer Authority in or
der to provide the needed water
for our farms and adequate waste
facilities for our residences and
protect the health, welfare and de-
velopment of all our people 1t is
of paramount Importance to sup
ply such service adequately, eco
nomically and without Interrupt
ton.
Our county streams are relative
ly small and can consume treated
waste only to a small extent with
out creating undesirable water
quality. In addition, underground
disposal of waste in Kent County
is limited due to the imperviOus
nature of the SOIL For these rea-
sons areas of recent residential de-
found the problem of waste criti-
cal. In addition, the new homes
and industries in Kent County
with their demand on the exist
| ing sources of water supply in
Kent County will require deeper
and deeper wells and special treat
ment which will be costly if a
countrywide water authority is not
| created. in order to protect the
supply of water to our farms and
in order to supply the water needs
of our growing industries and res
licences, steps must be immediate
ly undertaken at the county level
| for the creation of a water au-
thority. Our county government
must look to the future and take
immediate steps in this area to
protect our farms, our industries
and the health and welfare of all
| our citizens:
1. Under existing state laws a
! Kent County Water and Sewer Au-
thority can be created such as has
been created and now serves New
Castle County.
2. We propose that immediate ac-
! ton be taken to create such an
authority under existing laws to
serve the needs of Kent County.
8. We propose that such a Wa
/ tOI duQ OOWCI UC
ced by revenue bonds so that the
people receiving the service will
pay for the service and thus it
would not be necessary to raise the
taxes from their present level in
Kent County.
ZOning
1t is the belief of the Republi-
can Party that the people of Kent
County desire to retain the essen
tial character of Kent County as
a farming community. If the ru-
raj and farm nature of our coun-
| ty is to be retained we can only do
so by adopting countrywide zoning
which would in the outset zone
our existing farms and our exist
ing residential areas and indus
trial areas as such. Zoning not
only protects our farm areas but
| it also protects our present indus.

Republicans In Kent
County Have Developed
A Platform
CONTINUED from page one)

continued from page one)
county government has taken its
toll upon the opposition party
Power and control have become a
habit with the Democratic Party in
Kent County. AS a result the par
ty in control has become self-satis-
fed, indolent, and sterile. The pub
lie interest which should be the
paramount objective of the party
in power has been subOrdinated to
the party interest For this reas-
on the Democratic Party in Kent
County is devoid of any programs
or principle for the advancement
and well being of the public inter-
est of the people in Kent County.
This in 1860. During the past
ten years our population in Kent
County has increased from $4,000
to 65,000-an increase of approx
imately 759o. During this same
period the Democratic Party in
Kent County has had exclusive
and uninterrupted control of the
machinery of our county govern
ment. What has been the pro-
gram of this Party during this per-
iod of explosive change? What has
been it's guiding principles? How
has it met our problems? What
plans has it offered? What lead
ership? The answers to these
questions are apparent-there have
been no plans, no programs, no
leadership. no solutions. In short,
there has been no concern with the
public good. After more than a
decade of absolute power in Kent
County, the Democratic Party
stands before the people of this
County shorn of all except naked
political power and patronage.
AS Republicans we have ans
wers to some of the many prob
lens which confront us in Kent
County. The population growth
of the next ten years will be as
great, if not greater, than the past
ten years, and so also will be the
growth of the problems which such
population explosion brings with
Milford chronicle., 1960-11-04

it. While we cannot offer an easy
solution to all these complex
problems. we can offer a program
"a plan which will at least begin
to come to grips with our prob
lens. We offer to the people of
Kent County an approach to our
problems which the Democratic
Party for over a decade has ignor-
ed, either through lack of imagi-
nation or lack of interest in the
public good.
In order to develop a program
of county government beneficial
to all of the people of Kent Coun-
ty, it is first necessary that our
county government be in a sound
financial position. Unfortunately
this is not the case today. The
Democratically controlled county
government has for years been on
the brink of bankruptcy. For ex-
ample, at the end of fiscal year
1859 there was deficit tOtaling
$84,680.34. Our total county bur-
get is rapidly approaching mil
lion dollars annually. 1t is there
fore a big business and sound,
proven, business principles must
be applied to its operation.
/. Under the present operation
of the county government, the fis-
cal year runs from November 30th
to November 30th. The budget year
runs from July 1st to June 30th
and the tax year runs from June
1st to May 31st. In other words
the present county government, in
it's three major financial func-
tions, operates all three under diff
ferent fiscal year. Is it any won
der that there is great confusion
and the financial affairs of the
county are in disorder? The first
necessary change, therefore, is to
make the three fiscal years of our
county government coincide.
2. All expenditures should be
controlled by the Levy Court. I'm
der the present system approx
mately 509o of total disbursements
are not controlled by the Levy
Court. For the most part these
uncontrolled expenditures are well
fare expenditures which totaled
for the fiscal year 1859, $346,000
1t is obcious expenditures of this
Milford chronicle., 1960-11-04

nature for welfare assistance
should be controlled to the extent
possible by our county govern
ment rather than not controlled at
all as it is presently the case. 1t
is no wonder that there may be
so many abuses in welfare pay
ments when the county govern
ment is not controlling the purse
] strings.
| 8. Although it is common prac-
tice in the operation of county
governments and although several
accounting firms have recommend
ed to our Levy Court that test con-
| firmations of tax payments should
be made, our county, government
has neglected to put this accept
ed method into practice in Kent
County. In addition to failing to
confirm tax payments directly
with the taxpayers, the Levy Court
has also failed to adequately and
accurately check on the financial
affairs of the various county Of
fees such as the Prothonotary and
the Sheriff. For example, for the
year ended 1859 the fees and costs
earned by the Sheriff's office
amounted to $1,940.00, while at the
same time the travel expense for
the Sheriff's office was $5,034.OO,
for a total deficit during the year
of $3,094.00. In addition to the
obvious financial short comings
of the present procedure, out of
the complicated, needless organi-
cation which now prevails, arises
another serious defect-divided and
obscure responsibility for the fl
nancial affairs of our county gov
ernment
----ASSessments----
The most glaring inequities in
the operation of our county gov
ernment by the Democrats in the
inequities resulting from the op-
Grafton of the Board of Assess
ment where favoritism and person
alties are the rule and profession
| al standards of assessment are un-
heard of. Although New Castle
County, Sussex County and many
cities and towns in Kent County
have employed out-of-state pro-
fessional appraisers to do away
with the inequities which must
| necessarily result from unframed
Milford chronicle., 1960-11-04

imperative that county zoning be
adopted.
Mosquito Control
One of the most irritating and
obvious problems in Kent County
is the problem of mosquito control.
This problem has been with us in
the past and has been solved in
the past, but in recent years the
mosquito control program on the
state level has been inadequate to
solve the problem. 1t is therefore
incumbent on the county govern
ments to explore the possibility of
aiding in a solution of this prob
lem. Our county government, in
conjunction with the Sussex
County government and New Cas-
tie County government should un-
dertake a study of this problem to
determine what steps can be TAX
en- at the county level such as
Milford chronicle., 1960-11-04

personnels assessing the property
of their neighbors, the Kent Coun-
ty government has refused to adopt
this method The present county
government has chosen to retain
the political power inherently
found in the operations of the
Board of Assessment by their par
ty workers who have no profess
ional standards which they must
live up to, rather than engage pro-
fesisonal appraisers whose main
objective would be to see that all
Kent County property owners are
treated on an equal basis
The most obvious example of
the unfairness now practiced is
the case of any one who has pur-
chased property in recent years
and did not have personal pOliti-
cal influence with the Board of
Assessment In such cases as
these, there have been literally
thousands in recent years in Kent
County, the Board of Assessment
has applied fiat assessment rate
of 60&o of the purchase price. al
though such standard is not ap-
piled to older property owners in
Kent County.
/. The Kent County Republican
Party has pledged itself to gem
eral reassessment of real estate
in Kent County by competent, ex-
perienced, professional appraisers
with a view towards equalizing the
assessments of real property in
Kent County so that all the prop
erty owners in Kent County will
be treated alike regardless of par
ty affiliation.
2. After the general reassess-
ment is completed the Kent
County Board of Assessment will
follow the professional standards
set up by the appraisers so that
property assessed after the gen.
eral assessment will be assessed
according to the same standards
as applied in the general assess
ment
g. After the general assessment
is completed the assessment and
or tax rates will be equitably re-
duced to the point that the same
amount realized today from coun-
ty taxation will be realized after
the general reassessment 1t is
the belief of the Republican Party
that the amount presently being
realized by taxation is more than
enough to operate our county gov
ernment, although, this has not
proven to be- the case under the
Democrats, and no increased tax
alton will be necessary after the
general reassessment which is to
be undertaken solely to remove the
existing unfairness.
