at the Beebe Hospital in Lewes,
Del DR.. Tormet was not satisfied
with the negative picture of the
electrocardiogram. He took X
rays which demonstrated til e
growth attached to the wall of the
heart. No time was lost in sending
Paul Hess to the University of
Pennsylvania Hospital where DR..
Zinnser, head cardiac diagnosti-
cian of the heart surgery team,
confirmed the findings. Surgery
was indicated, approved and per-
formed successfully.
The case is one of many which
heart research has saved. In a
conversation with Mrs. Frank
Lynch, Sussex County chairman
of the Delaware Heart Association
DR.. Tobin very strongly pointed
out the need for periodic check
ups. Many heart ailments are
known to occur when least sus-
pected by its victims. They can be
saved by keeping in touch with
their personal physicians.
On February 26, 1861, you will
have an opportunity to help in
this great work. On that day, des-
ignated as Heart Sunday, your dol
lars will be solicited in the hope
that they will save another Paul
Hess who may turn out to be you,
or your child.

construction or corporate profits. .
THE year 1860 was a varied
year." he said, "a year still dis
torted by the effects of the steel
strike in 1889"
1T was a highly competitive
in industrial commodities, but a
continuing slow increase in prices
of goods and services purchased
by the primate consumer.
There may be a mild decline
in activity the first half year." he
said, but the decline will be the
most moderate since 1926.
The decline will be concentrat-
ed largely in business spending
for capital improvements, new
plants and equipment, because
productive capacity is now equal
to the demands of the current mar
ket, he said.
Consumer and governmental
spending, Ellis said, will account
for the bulk of the national pro-
duct, with a great portion being
for national defense, assuming
that a shooting war. does not throw
the whole picture out of focus
he said.
Even with a decline in employ
ment the money from unemploy-
ment compensation, private and
public pensions, combined with
increase in salaries and wages
will keep total personal income
high, Ellis said. =.
Therefore, he said, "the out
look for 1861 is favorable for re-
tail sales of soft goods-food
clothing, and services, including
education, medical care, vacations
dry cleaning, TV repair, church
contributions, and so forth.
He predicted the consumer price
index would rise about one pei
cent during the year, but there
would be some declines in indus
trial goods, which would not af-
feet the overall price index be-
cause of the increase in costs OF
services.
Personal income in Delaware
ne said, would go from $1.5 billion
to about $1.575 billion, with av-
erage income going from $3.50 tC
$3.50.

of the Mayor, Council and myself.
The Mayor on account of sickness
is not able to be present tonight
and of all meetings this is one
that l wish he was present be-
cause | know that he could do a
much better job than | can at
this first meeting in the new city

citizens of Milford should be very
proud of and / am sure that the
donor of this building will be
watching and hoping that great
good can be achieved for the City

the citizens of Milford.
Also, l want to congratulate the
building committee on their fine
selection of furniture and draper

Ward seconded the motion and it
was unanimously approved.
The Resolution as adopted fol-
lows:
Whereas, it has pleased our

of the City of Milford through the
expression of their interest and
love for our community has at
tanned living memorial in his
memory, now therefore, the Coun-
Gil of the City of Milford with
deep feeling and personal sense of
loss and disappointment at the
untimely event, wishes to express
our most sincere sympathy to Mrs.
Vale and the immediate members of
the family. The greatness of his
life and contributions to his fell
low man can only be expressed
by solemn reflections and feelings
of gratitude that we were pleased
as community by his hav-

Square be flown at half mast for
the customary period of time and
that the Charter of the City of
Milford be draped for a period of

Untapped Source
Of Tax Revenue

A late issue of the Harvard
Business Review carries an impor-
article by Professor Harry G. Gut
hman entitled TAX Favoritism to
CO-Operatives" His thesis is that
tax discrimination provides the e.
lectric co-ops and other publicly
owned utility systems with a sub
stantial competitive advantage
and it is an advantage, of course,
which ultimately is paid for by the
taxpayers at large.
In 1858, DR.. Guthman reports,
taxes accounted for 22.2 per cent
of all the revenues the private
electric utilities received from their
customers. But they came to a mere
81 per cent in the case of non
federal publicly-owned operations,
or less than one-seventh as much.
Professor Guthman wonders, and
with every reason, why so little eff
fort has been made to tap the rev.
enue source of publicly-owned
power agencies. And it is high
time that wonder became general
among the boters and taxpayers,
and was translated into specific
action. Tax favoritism of this kind
this the national pocketbooks in two
ways-by depriving us of the tax
es private enterprise would pay if
it conducted the businesses, and
through the direct and indirect
subsidies that go to socialized sys-
TENS Government in business is
always bad, but when government
does go into business, it should
be taxed on precisely the same
basis as the private self-support-
ing enterprises with which it COM
peteS.

Recruiting Started
By National Guard
Continued from page one)

tCOHLluucu lIOm page Ou0I
Being a member of the Army
National Guard offers many OPP
portunities to the veteran as we'll
as men who have had no previous
service.
To the veteran there is an op-
pOrtunity to earn extra pay at the
rate of one days pay for each drill
that is attended based on the
grade that you held while in ser
vice. Those who have reserve OBJ
legations remaining can shorten
their active obligation by serving
with the Guard. Veterans have no
opportunity to advance in grade
The retirement program offered
by the Guard means greater sec
urity after reaching the age of so.
To the young man coming into
the Army National Guard without
any previous service there is un-
limited opportunities. Young h & h
school graduates or seniors can
attend tn g Delaware National
Guard Academy and qualify as a
commissioned officer, with the
Reserve Forces Personnel Act
now in effect the opportunities
were never greater as many of
the veterans will be leaving the
service. Joining the National
Guard while a senior in high
school you can wait until after
graduation before going on si x
months active duty and then re
turn to your home town unit and
servie the remainder of your mill
itary obligation-an obligation
which all young men face. While
on active duty for six months
you can learn many trades that will
not only help you to advance in the
Guard but will be of value in
your civilian occupations. The
young man also has an opportun-
ity for a worthwhile retirement at
the age of 60 which would cost
thousands of dollars. There lis no
cost to the GuardSman.
These are just a few of the part
iculars veterans and young men
with no prior service can learn
about by visiting the Army Nat
ional Guard Armory in your area

Many of the men spent a lot of their time bowling, kating and working out at the Village Gym. About the largest sport
 that the Marines participated
 in was fishing. Somo of the linen went and stayed overnight at various places, and from all reports, had an enjoyable time. Quite a few nice fish were caught and wore prepared fortho fishermen by the cook iof the Marine Club. Through the hard work of the 1 Marines and the expert super vision Of Sergeant Ma jor DONO- VAN, the club is improving all the time. It is probably one l of the finest clubs on the is-
 land and it was the Marines/

DEAR ABBY: My husband
owns q garage and I keep
his books and send out the
bills. There is a woman who
lives near us who has owed
us a bill for over a year. !
sent her one on the first Of
the month "a year ago. but
she ignored it. My husband
told me not to send her any
more bills and just to forget
it. When I ask him why, he
tells me to mind my own
business. She works and so
does her husband, so they
can't be hard up. Why do you
suppose he doesn't send her
a bill?
SILENT PARTNER"
Maybe she paid him. In
cash.
DEAR ABBY: I'm curious
about what a person should
do in a case like this: I have
a relative who invites me to
spend week ends at her home
frequently. She never asks me
If I would like a cup of cof-
fee, tea or a glass of water.
No lunch is served and !
must go all day without even
a snack until dinner.
She is well-to-do and her
cupboards are stocked with
plenty of everything. Should
I ask for a bite to eat? Or
should I excuse myself, tell
her I'm going for "a walk"
and then 60 to a luncheonette
to eat? I was advised to write
to write to you. What would
YOU do?
OOO1 SO1t4OOO
I, too, am curious, Why,
when you are treated so in
Hospitality, do you continue
these week end visits? 1 would
ask my hostess IL she OBJ
jected to my fixing a little

I'd go to it.

showers and all the girls strip
and shower together. This one
girl with the slip is the laugh
ing stock of the gym class.
Everyone is talking about her,
but she is to dumb to know
it. Don't you think someone
should tell her to take off
that silly slip and shower
like everone else? No one can
understand her thinking.

Despite the rough time it
gave Civil Service Commission
officials in questioning them
on the justification of the ad-
ministration's request for more
than 800 super-grade and Pub
lie Law 313 jobs, a House Civil
Service manpower subcommit-
tee is expected to approve a
goodly portion of the requests.
However, the group is not
expected to okay all the addi-
tional high-paying jobs at
once, but to parcel them out
over a period of several years.
The House unit feels that all
of the requested super-grade
jobs are not. needed imme-
diately and that they can be
distributed to the departments
and agencies over a period of
two or three years as the need
arises. The additional jobs
would pay up to $18,500 and
$4,000 a year.
While the House group is
critical of some of the job re-
quests, it's known that Presi-
dent Kennedy is personally
very much interested in the
situation. It's reported that he
discussed with Chairman Muir
ray Of the full House commit
tee the urgent necessity of get
ting these additional super
grade jobs approved by Con-
greSs. >rr ..-..
csc Chairman John Macy
yesterday stressed the admins
tration's view that it is vitality
essential to the Nations de-
fense and security programs
and vital domestic operations
that the additional top-salaried
jobs are approved to reward
adequately the vital personnel
in Government concerned with
these programs.
Representatives Johansen of
Michigan and Gross of Iowa,
the Republican members of the
subcommittee, were sharply
critical of the requests, declar-
