promotion, not only brought to The
First State its greatest influx of
tourists but also produced more
favorable publicity for Delaware
and its many attractions than ever
before in the states history ac-
oording to Mr.. Hugg.
Information concerning Della
ware and it's attractions has already
appeared in many magazines and
other publications having nation
wide circulation, and additional re-
quests for articles and illustrative
material are still being received.
This publicity, according to Mr.
Hugg, is in addition to that regu-
larly provided by newspapers and
radio stations in this state and ad-
jacent areas.
That interest in Delaware is be-
is proven, according to the infor-
nation officer, by the fact that the
mail volume of the Development
Department and other state tour
ist information sources increased
considerably during 1860, with the
Development Department alone
handling as many as $50 inquiries
per day. Many of the inquirers, ac-
cording to Mr.. Hugg, have either
since visited Delaware or else plan
to visit this state in the future.
Despite the fact that Delaware
has the smallest promotional bud
get of any of the fifty states, bro
chures and other literature pro-
duced by the Development Depart
ment continue to compare favorably
with that being distributed by other
larger states, reports Mr.. Hugg.

had tried petitions before to
no avail.
This ought to give a little
prestige to law and order from

legal procedure to handle these
problems. They have to be
shown they can't take matters
into their own hands"
Mr.. Collar said the Govern

after the Bureau Of Indian Af-
fairs in Washington, D. c.,

them.
I'VE asked them to give up
and open the doors, but they
refused" Mr.. collar said
There was a window open
anyway, so we threw the tear
gas in. After that. they came
out calmly and walked over to
