Bond Sales
Off BY so

Cash sales of Series of E
& H Bonds In the nation for the
first nine months totaled So, ,2o6
million which is off 5% from
last year. Gross redempions
(including accrued interest) for
the same period, totaled $3.627
million, 4.8% above a year ago.
Under Secretary Roosa,
speaking to The Mortgage
Bankers Association In Chicago
this month remarked, Savings
Bonds still account for almost
one-sixth of the entire outstand-
ing debt. Since the continued
success of the program is a
vital part of the whole debt
management program, 1t is
gratifying that Savings Bonds
have kept their place in our
debt structure during these re-
cent months when the compet-
tive pressure from higher
rates on bank deposits and saw
ings and loan shares, in part
icular, has loan shares. In part

Recall Early
HaILOWe'en
Customs Here

The approach of Halloween
with its tales of ghosts and
goblins for the very young. SER
YES to recall that many of Del
aware's early settlers, like
their kinfolk elsewhere in the
American Colonies, believed, In
varying degrees, In witchcraft,
and even practiced some un-
usual customs to ward off evil.
advises the Delaware State De-
velopment Department. sa
AS an example of this, the
state information agency notes
that 1t was once the custom In
this area to place a psalm book
beneath the head of a newly
born child to supposedly lyprevent
its being exchanged for an elf
child by witches.
Another early Delaware Gus
tom was to cut crosses into
broom handles so that witches
could not ride on them. A still
stranger custom was to feed
cattle with crumbs from each
course of a meal on Christmas
Day to protect the animals "a
gainst witchcraft.
According to some sources,
witches" even gave Johan
Printz, the third Swedish COVER
nor of Delaware, the goose
pimples". Although thought of
as hardbitten warrior, Printz'
blood reportedly ran cold when
he accused Karin, a Finnish
woman, of ''witchery". Karin
and her husband, who had come
to Delaware with the Swedes,
were subsequently banished
from the main settlements of
New Sweden, and their farm re-
portedly was seized by the
governor.
Even in the time of William
Penn, a woman, ''of common
fame being a witch, "was hailed
into court on charges of be-
witching her neighbors' poss-
essions, perhaps their live
stock.
In more recent times, notes
the Development Department,
witches" have obviously been
less In evidence and have only
been "seen" In the fertile minds
of small youngsters whose i'm
aginations have been stirred
with tales read or told to them
by older folks at Halloween.

Do Not Mis-
Home Cleaners

You're asking for trouble
when you mix household
bleaches and cleaners, warns
Miss Coral Morris, University
of Delaware home management
specialist.
According to the National SAT-
ETY. Council, one homemaker
wasn't satisfied with the results
derived from using a we'll
known cleaner In the toilet bowl.
In an attempt to clean the bowl
better, she added household
bleach to the cleaner and stirred
the mixture. The acid content
of the cleaners liberated
chlorine gas, which is a deadly
poison, when the bleaching COM
pound was added. Death oc-
Cured In a matter of minutes.
Household bleaches - which
have variety of trade enames -
are solutions of solium hypo-
chlorite. Acid substances -
even vinegar - added to such
bleaches will create and re-
lease poisonous chlorine gas.
Use these precautions, urges
Miss Morris:
Never combine cleaners and
bleaches.
Store them safely in separate
places.
Keep them away from food and
medical supplies.
Never leave them where
children might have access to
them.

Senate Will Investigate Surplus Stockpiles

WASHINGTON tR Senate Republican Leader Everett Dirk sen said yesterday he will ask that a joint congressional com mittee investigate the nations mounting surplus of stockpiled materials.
 President Kennedy announced at his news conference Wednes- day that such study will be made by Senate Armed Services Subcommittee headed by Sen. Stuart Symington.
 Describing the surplus stocks as so excessive as to invite profiteering and mismanagement, Kennedy said
 'sThe cold facts on this matter must be open to the public"
 Dirksen told reporters that Re publicans twill be more than happy to join full-dress investi- gation of this whole stockpile situation
 But he said it should be under taken by the joint Senate-House committee on essential gov- ernment expenditures, headed by Sen. Harry Byrd, O-Vao, rather than the three-member Armed Services Subcommittee.
 Dirksen is a member of the Byrd committee. He said the com mittee does not need any addi- tional authority from Congress to handle the stockpiling inquiry.

Ike Calls on US. To Glorify Hard Work

LOS ANGELES lR = Former President Eisenhower has called on Americans to ssrepudiate feather-bedding and to glorify hard work at all levels.'' Addressing more than 1000 per sons at Chamber of Commerce banquet Wednesday night, he de- clared: Wherever malingering in any group or class is condoned-- whether in management, scientists or Worker-progress is destined to be slow.
 Adequate leisure is not only desirable, it is healthy for mind as well as body, but unwarranted idleness in any part of the popu- lation cannot fall, corresponding ly, to slow up the rate of growth.''
 Eisenhower said the public grew suspicious of make work prof. ects--both public and private during the depression years of the 1930s.
 Tie auueu. Later on, in the 1940s, huge demand for all va rieties of goods and services led to inefficiency and to neglect of true productivity in work per- formed. Today we are not lacking in specific indications that we are drifting toward a feather-bed economy.
 ssIn saying this" he continued, VI am not referring merely to the make-work rules adopted by some unions; rather I think we should be concerned with all the practices and trends in fields that may put present influence above needed accomplishment that may di- minish incentive, stifle competi- tion and, in the name of security, lessen opportunity

US. Surge for
 Recreation Needs ssMoney-Lots of It.
By Douglas Cornell

WASHINGTON R = A specia commission reported "Wednesday that a surging need for more out door recretation in America mus be met by imagination, large scale action and smoney-lots o1 it."
 But the Outdoor Recreation Re sources and Review Committee left it to President Kennedy and Congress, and to state and local governments to figure out price tags and what specific areas should be acquired or improved.
 The 15-man commission, head ed by Laurence Rockefeller, New York, did say that tsthe first task is to provide recreation for the metropolitan regions, which have the biggest population and de mand for recreation and the least space for it."
 Tn urging immediate acquisition of ocean and lake shores, it said that: Highest priority should be given to acquisition of areas To- cated closer to major population centers and other areas that are immediately threatened. The need is critical al-opportunity to place these areas in public ownership is fading each year as other uses encroach."
 Basically, the Commission said there is plenty of land and water acreage for recreation, but mos of it, lis where the people are not
 Rockefeller told news brief ing that it was on purpose that i've haven't come up with either acres or dollars" The Cornrnis- sion's idea, he said, was to discuss the principles and tools and leave it to others to determine how they can be used best.
 No plans have been developed, he told a questioner, for follow ing through on the report in the legislative field. Sen. Clinton An derson D-N.M), commission member, said he was sure bills would be introduced to carry out many of the recommendations.
 Rockefeller said the report is oriented toward people rather than resources with the objective of meeting the great demand for outdoor recreation. He sai d quantity isn't enough and the Commission attempted to stress
