However, private owners are

sA By George Armstrong
4. (Moss Point CD Director

II am taking the liberty of re-
porting some of the facts OBJ
tanned from the US Corps of
Engineers at two meetings we
had last week. / am doing this
because 1t appears that this
survey is an area in which
much misunderstanding can re-
suit if the facts are not known.
The Corps plans to move into
the Moss Point area in Decem-
Iber under executive order from
President Kennedy.

on a program as large as this
one, nor would they advise
private fallout shelter con-
struction if they thought the
shelters would be made obso-
lete by new weapons of TIL e
future.
/ do not believe this survey
is case of The federal govern
ment messing around" un-
warranted. in local ard private
affairs. The survey is too large
to be undertaken successfully
by city. county or state gov
ernment agencies. This survey
carries the endorsement CT
Gov. Ross Barnett and state
civil defense director r. L.
Crook.
Although the plan of 1919 by
1863 may very well be a case
Of too little and too late, ev-
cry citizen Of Moss Point
should be urged to cooperate
with the corps survey. For it
is only through this coopera-
ton that we can gain this fed
eral aid, and 1919 is better
than nothing.
There are no fe d eral
Strings" attached to the corps
program. They are merely per
forming a service to the local
ity. Once the shelters are des-
ignated and stocked, they will
permanently withdraw from
the picture This leaves the
locality with the awesome re-
sponsibility Of deciding how
the shelters will be used and
which 1919 of the people will
use them.

: The Hard Sell
By JOSEPHINE GIcHNER

Part Of the art Of home
seIling"-we learned at our
hOuse-is how to convince q
prospective buyer to come
look ut the place while your
7-year-old has the mumps.
The pressure was on US.
In Just 80 days We had to
settle on our new home and
still no buyer for the old one.
We were about to pull out
all the stops for the final,
no-offer-refused open house

Finally one did show up
with o kindly lady who even
visited with the sick little
girl for q few moments and
decided she wanted the
house.
1t was q scene that would
sell any house. There was
Diane, fully puffed out at
the face and sitting up in
bed, her two younger BROTH
ers sitting beside her for
company and her dog curled
up on the floor. This was q
house that looked lived In.
Our first house e-selling ex-

of one Of those blizzards Of

snow beating down, covering
the streets with several
inches, I decided it was time
to go house hunting.

Real estate experts may

Sow Two BusheI Rute
For Wheat And Barley

Winter barley and winter wheat
should be seeded at the same rates,
according to George Vapaa, Kent
county agent.
One and one-half to two bushels
Thy weighD per acre is the rec
ommended quantity, he says. III it
is TO be seeded to grass or legumes,
this amount should be reduced to
no more than one and one-half
bushels per acre.
Mr.. Vapaa adds that extensive
tests with winter wheat indicates
that eight pecks per acre gives the
most profitable" yield But seed
ing six or seven pecks per acre
will only slightly lower yields, he
says.
Heavier seeding than usual is
advisable if seeding is delayed be-
yond the normal date because
there is less opportunity for the
plants to stool.
The Fly free" date has already
passed for Kent County, says the
agent, so any time is alright to
start seeding.

Beginning Thursday. October II,
the Thomas Mexican Society. Chll-
dren of the American Revolution.
OF Milford, will bring, before the
public. activity promoting the an
nual observance of Patriotic Edu-
cation Week. Across the nation,
other like societies will be doing
the same. This year the theme is
Our Priceless Heritage" Each
society is allowed TO use its own
Interpretation of the theme.
The celebration and program
for the event began four years ago
in an effort to present an informal
education of the foundation be-
hind American Liberty. The lib
erty we enjoy daily has become
an accepted part of our lives, a
luxury we seldom question, but
whose maintenance has been the
life work and sometimes the blood
of men and women throughout our
short life as an independent coun-
try.
Symbolic of that freedom is a
swatch of colorful cloth called the
American Flag. In her name, great
deeds have charted course in his
tory which we, as leaders in pa
triotism, feel keen responsible
ity to cherish and maintain. In
honor of our glorious emblem, the
Thomas Mexican Society will dis
play a window arrangement at the
j. c. Penney Company in Mil
ford, for one week. Featured will
be a model of one Betsy Griscom
Ross, designed of that first Off
cial banner of these United
States. This will be one interpre-
tation of Our Priceless Herit-
age"
In conjunction with the weekly
celebration. members of the soci-
ETY. will broadcast a program en-
titled, Delaware = Landmark of
Liberty" on Saturday morning,

Invitations are being mailed. for

Churches from way back have
striven for two great principles
individual rights for everyone re-
gardless of their color and faith,
and search for truth"
This was stated by the Rev.
James A. Mays. pastor of Lewes
Presbyterian Church, before the
Lewes Rotary Club recently. The
minister's topic was "The Church
and Public Education" He empha-
sized that schools were founded by
the churches as we'll as colleges
that were founded by religious
groups.
This has been the church S
philosophy which ties in with
what the schools have been doing"
He added, Most of the church
bodies now, believe as always, that
public education should be by the
government for all the people.
Back in 1857 the Presbyterian
Church restated the Unborn right
to search for truth-which is the
major function of school systems "
He pointed out that years ago
Bible reading in schools was the
entire community. Now there
are many mixed groups who are
not necessarily of one faith Bible
reading. would be forcing discus
sions against those of different
faiths
Every man has a right to at
tend public schools, a democratic
institution. What we strive for in
churches is what is being practised
in schools. In a sense the school
stands in judgement over the
church because they can do a
better job. Schools teach facts and
sometimes the churches get a little
Side-tracked by the old dogmatic
teachings and have to switch
their position on secular things
Public schools are actually a secu-
Lar institution. Parochial schools
make an honest attempt to relate
church and school teachings"
The minister concluded by say
ing, Everyone is looking for ways
to teach children A lot of relig-
ious instruction should be done in
the home" On October II, the
Rotary Club held a joint meeting
with the Rehoboth Beach Kiwanis
Club at Rehoboth instead of its
regular meeting October 9th.

Hercules To Begin

HDQ. MATS, SCOTT AFB, ILL.
Modernization of the Military Air
Transport Service with faster,
Longer-range, more versatile air.
craft began this week when a
letter contract for So million for
16 C-130E Hercules prophets was
awarded to the Georgia Division
of the Lockheed Aircraft Corp. by
the Air Forces Air Materiel Com
mand, Wright-Patterson Air Force
Base, Dayton, Ohio.
The order for the new troop and
cargo carrying aircraft is expected
to fatal so aircraft over a two
year period with a total estimat-
ed program cost of $40 million.
MATS provides strategic airlift
for worldwide u. S. defense forces
including the Strategic Air Com
mand, Tactical Air Command and
strike forces of the Army and
Navy.
The first C-13OE is to be de-
livered to MATS in March, 1862.
1t. Gen. Joe w. Kelly, COM
mander of MATS, announced the
contract award today.
This contract Will provide
MATS with the first aircraft for
our urgently needed interim mod
ernization program" Gen. Kelly
said.
Milford chronicle., 1961-01-13

He added that the MATS stra-
tegic airlift force is moving to-
ward all-jet and turbo-prop cargo
aircraft capable of carrying huge
payloads at speeds approaching
those of current jet bombers.
He said the C-130E will be eff
fective as a long range transport
capable of fast. worldwide airlift
missions. 1t also will be a top per-
former for use by paratroops or
for heavy air drop operations. if
required. Its comparatively short
field landing characteristics allow
it to put troops and weapons into
more remote areas of. the world.
This is the first time in aviation
history. Gen. Kelly said, that all
these features have been combin-
ed in one airplane. Gen. Kelly's
military airlift command now has
two types of aircraft which can
carry heavier loads, but one 40
years old) is much slower, and
the other is unsuitable for short
field operations.
With full MATS fuel reserves
and carrying combat equipment
such as weapons, troops, litters,
or air-drop gear, the C-130E will
airlift 27,500 pounds of payload
across the Atlantic Ocean non
syop from Dover AFB., to Chat
eauroux Air Base, France. More
than $4,000 pounds can be carried
nonstop from the West coast to
Hawaii (2,465 miles) even against
So m.p.h. headwinds.
Takeoff weight will gross 1885,.
900 pounds. This is 10000 more
than the famed C-130B, already
known around the world for it's
ruggedness and large payload.
Four Allison T56-A-7 prophets
of 1850 equivalent shaft horse
power each give the C-130E 49,
200 ESHP total. Four-bladed, 13-
1-2-foot Hamilton Standard hyd-
romatic propellers are geared to
the turbines.
Two 1,36-gallon pylon fuel tanks
between engine and nacelles add
2,720 gallons of fuel capacity to
the $3.50 gallons in internal wing
tanks for a total of $3.50 gallons
for overocean cruise flights.
Landing gears and supporting
structures will be beefed up to
take care of the added weight.
