Plan Bill
To Change
Terms of
.LeUy Court

Legislation will be introduced
In the General Assembly to
change the election of the Kent
County Levy Court so all
members run at large for six
year terms.
James B. Messick, Levy
Court president, suggested the
measure to the Levy Court at
Tuesdays meeting and Edward
Kelly and Carl P. Prettyman
approved the idea.
Levy Court commits sioners
run now for wo-year terms
from three Levy Court districts
which are combined election
districts.
Messick's bill will call for
each commissioner to re-
present a Levy Court district
but election will be at large as
In New Castle and Sussex Coun-
ties.
81 think It is ridiculous to run
for two years, "Messick said. 81
think there should be continuity
of programs.
The bill would begin stag
gered term of two, four and
six years In 1864 which would
allow one man familiar with
past problems always on the
Levy Court. argued Messick.
This will mean experienced
persons will always be on the
Levy Court to provide CONT
nuity of government, said Mes
sick.
AS an example, he cited Zon-
ing for the county which may
take six years to bring In.

Added to the twelve pre-
viously proposed street i'm
provements in three blocks on
East Street, between South and
North Streets. The improve
ments represent $l00, 900 worth
of work and will be broken

to be determined during the

David P. Buckson, town at
torney, and two aides, William
Hudson and Harry Farrow we're
present at the meeting. There
was discussion on the erection
of a tent on Fisher Street,
granted on temporary basis
on June 20, 1862 on property
owned by Emma Johnson.
No plans were submitted and
the towns building code was
not complied with. Buckson
noted that the situation showed
the need for legislation, with
emphasis on zoning.
Councilmen Guy M. Edmond
son, Jr. and George Bryson re-
ported on meeting with Martin
Roberts when tentative Of
fers for street right of way on
Locust Street Extension were
made. He will reply to the pro-
posals.

had almost doubled its electric
consumption since 1854, from
5,594, 400 kilowatt hours to
l0,228,000 hours in 1862.

PrOUide Taa Relief

of our economy in the le60's.
"Our economy is envied by
the world, but 1t needs realistic
changes to insure solid and dy-
mamie growth. ! intend to sup
port tax measures which will
contribute to a prompt increase
of production and employment
and which will set the stage for

SkAA5A S1DAAAoh AAoA 40 De lflS
Dowell, Jr., Democrat, Del
aware, said today he would in
troduce a bill this week de-
signed to provide both individual
and corporate tax relief.
The new Mcdowell bill would
increase personal income tax
exemptions from 5000 to $500
and reduce the corporate nor
NAL tax rate from the present
3o% to 25%.
Congressman Mcdowell po-
inted out that his bill removes
part of the present tax burdens
on small business concerns, as
we'll as the tax burdens on other
business firms.
He said these reforms are
those most needed to stimulate
business and national economic
growth.
Congressman Mcdowell went
on to say:
''This kind of tax cut is i'm
portant both in terms of its
decisive impact on the economy
as well as in fair tax treat
ment of all groups in the pop
ulation.
''Low and middle income
families spend all or almost all
their incomes. They spend ad-
ditional income very rapidly.
''There would be a fast and
substantial boost of consumer
sales from such a tax cut. AS
the increases in sales spread
through the economy, these
sales would be accompanied
by rising business profits and
increased investments as we'll.
"Over the course of the year,
the increases in employment,
personal incomes and business
profits would begin to generate
additional tax revenues.
"a $500 increase in personal
income tax exemptions would
apply to every Federal tax
payer. 1t would give immediate
relief, therefore, in an area
where it is needed the most -
to the older citizens dependent
upon reduced earning capacity,
and especially to the familyman
in providing for his children
as they approach high school
and college age. Moderate
income families are today feel
ing the squeeze of these in
creased costs as they struggle
to balance the family budget and
provide adequate education of
their children.
while | fully endorse the
basic outlines of President Ken
nedy's tax reduction proposals,
as revealed in his State of the
Union Message, | am hopeful
that the principle which | am
suggesting in my bill, may also
be included in the Presidents
recommendations to be pre-.
sented to the Congress later
this month.
"This principle of my bill
is only the first step in tax
reduction. 1t leaves ample room
for further tax reduction across
the board and provides for fur
ther reductions of the corporate
tax structure.
81 favor tax cuts first for the
individual and for the small and
independent business concerns.
81 feel that an immediate tax
cut such as have proposed
should be followed, during 1868,
by a thorough reform of the
whole tax structure. Reform of
the tax structure is necessary
so that sound foundation can
be built whereupon we can sus-

ALCOA EXTENDS
VACATION PLAN
TO EMPLOYEES

PITTSBURGH (AP). -
The Aluminium Co. of
America says it will extend
a vacation program to its
some $4,000 salaried en-
ployes starting the first of
next year.
The plan will give en-
ployes credit for 1.6 weeks
pay each year for five
years. The individual en-
ploye may elect to take it
in company stock as part
of the present savings plan,
or in cash, or as a vacation
plus cash or stock. An en-
ploye can take no more
than three weeks extra
vacation.
The program is similar
to that won by ALCOA
wage-earners in recent ne
gotiations by the United
Steelworkers Union.
In addition, salaried en-
ployes also will be granted
improvements in fringe
benefits, including hospi-
talization. life insurance,
maternity, sickness and
accident. The full hospi-
talization plan will be in
creased from 100 to 365
days. t

Miss Genevieve Pau, daugh-
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Anton Pau,
became the bride OF Marlin
Norby in a double ring cere-
mony at st. Matthew's Catholic
Church on Saturday, April 20.
Rev. Thomas Powers performed
the marriage ceremony. The
groom is the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Alfred Norby of rural
Fairview.
The bride, escorted to the al
tar by her father, wore a floor
length gown of Chantilly lace
and silk organza trimmed with
sequins. Her fingertip veil was
made by the groom's mother
and she carried a bouquet of
pink roses and white carnations
from which fell a shower Of
satin streamers strewn with
miniature roses.
Betty Pfau, sister of the
bride, was bridesmaid, and
Lynn McWilliams was the
brides attendant. The groom's
attendants were his brother,
Dean Norby, and Dean Nielsen.
Ushers were Robert Pau and
Leroy Pfau, brothers of the
bride; Dennis Johnston, a neph-
ew of the groom; and Grin An
derson, a cousin of the groom.
Following the marriage a re-
ception was held at the Moose
