Mrs. Kimmel's topic for her

husband, then 1t. Kimmel, USN,
we're stationed there for three
years. Dressed in a native cos
tune, she gave the interesting
aspects of the island, as to situ-
alton, weather, native customs
and many things that brought to
her audience much of which was
novel and appealing. She inter-
preted the hula dance as given
by those of other years and a
modern version as well. Her
personality and her choice of
items for her talk made a pleasant
interlude in the meeting of the
day.

At Close To
One Million
Governor Carvel Will
Ask The Current
Legislature For A
Supplemental Appro-
priation To Start In
June.

Gov. Ebert N. Carvel is ex-
pected to ask the General As
sembly shortly for a 81 million
supplemental appropriation to get
emergency school repairs under
way in June.
The governor, this week, in
formed Legislative leaders of both
parties, meeting behind closed
doors, that the money is avail
able and he prefers to handle the
repairs by direct appropriation
rather than a bond issue.
The governor emphasized,
however, that day-to-day repairs
of a minor nature should be
handled within a school districts
regular unit appropriation.
It was disclosed today that a
new survey of emergency repair
needs of Delaware's school dis
tricts has been conducted by DR..
Rene L. Herbst, assistant state
superintendent of public instruc-
tion.
The survey disclosed that the
local needs, after wedding out
those which could be postponed,
come to about 81 million.
There seemed to be agreement
among the legislative leaders
that the Carvel approach would be
best. II the repair money we're
to be placed In the regular fiscal
1864 budget due next week, the
funds would not become available
until after July 1st.
The idea of a supplemental ap-
preparation is to give the Depart
ment of Public Instruction time
to investigate the proposed
projects for real need, advertise
for bids, and let contracts In
time to get work underway when
school lets out in June.

Change In the 'inve Stment

code changes explained In the

w. T. McAllister, extension

the University of Delaware, said
the change allows farmers and
other businessmen who pur-
chased certain types of depreci-
able property to take a tax de-
duction equal to 2 per cent of
the purchase price.
To qualify, McAllister said,

annual report covering the fiscal
year which ended June 30th.
Tax Commissioner E. Hobson
Davis disclosed in the report
that a ruling from former Atty.
Gen. Januar D. Bove, Jr. holds
that requiring a copy Of the
federal return to accompany the
state return would be legal under
the state constitution.
Although the report made no
recommendation that such step
be instituted, the fact that an
attorney generals ruling was
requested, gives a broad hint
Of some official thinking.
Davis, in his annual report,
made four broad recommenda-
tions for closing some of the es-
cape matches through which state
revenue is leaking. He recon-
mended that:
Employees at local race
tracks be required to pay an
occupational license fee of one
days pay If they are not sub
ject to Withholding of Delaware
income tax. Such a step would
affect hundreds of track work.

Somehow, 1t is hard to think of

birth to a number of surprising
events that have not, as yet,
