He was elected Senator after serving in the
Il. S. Navy, in 1913. He was named majority leader IN
955 when the Democrats took control. It was in that
ear that President Johnson suffered heart attack
which was described at that time as serious. This
heart attack was brought up to political disadvantage
hen he tossed his hat into the Democratic ring as a
residential candidate in 1860.
He received 400 ballots at the Democratic National
Convention on the first ballot. It was thought that this
strength was the reason why he was selected to run on
the Kennedy ticket as Vice President.
The new President was raised on a farm and work
ed his way through college. He married Lady Bird
Taylor in 1884 and has two children.
This morning he is leading Governmental officials

The Inactive
Guard Will
Be Revived

The Delaware National Guard
plans to revive the "hactive"
National Guard, which was aban-
doned several years ago.
Maj. Gen. Joseph j. Scannell,
state adjutant general, said the
decision to have the Guard OBJ
tain ffillers" itself rather than
from the "ready reserve REIN
forcement poolo administered by
the Army.
Guard units are maintained at
less than 100 per cent strength
and stfillers" are put in the
vacancies when the units are
mobilized.
The move was explained in
Washington as part of a plan
to free the guard of a bottle
neck encountered during the Ber-
lin crisis in 1861 when $50, 1000
civilians were mobilized. This
included $4,000 'sfillers" who
we're ordered TO duty to bring
the recalled Guard units to full
strength. In many cases they
did not have the needed mill
tary occupational specialities.
Scannell said the Army's ex-
perience in trying to supply sfil-
lers" has resulted In the rea1iza-
tion that the job can best be done
by the Guard.

each year at the holiday
season, many Christmas Seal
letters are sidetracked with other
cards and letters and are for
gotten," DR.. Beatty said. stWe
want to emphasize that replies
to ChriStnas Seal letters will
still be included in the returns
for the 1862 campaign"
Christmas Seal contributions
help make possible a broad pro-
gram of detection, rehabilitation,
nursing, education and research
directed toward the eradication
of tuberculosis and a reduction
in the impact of other respiratory
diseases.
DR.. Beatty pointed out that TB
continues to be a problem in
Delaware, as evidenced by ITO
new cases this year against 169
last year.
The TB Society president said
that reminders have been mailed
to many Delawareans who
normally contribute to the

the fight against tuberculosis and
other respiratory diseases has
the opportunity to do So" DR..

Walls Seated
By Majority
Despite COP
Blocking

A Republican effort to block
the seating of Rep. Joseph B.
Walls, Sussex County Democrat,
was shouted down by his political
colleagues on Tuesday, as
the 122ne General Assembly got
under way.
The House and Senate or
|ganized and adopted a series of
similar, routine resolutions.
The legislators were informed
that Gov. Ebert N. Carvel plans
to address a joint session Thurs
day, January 10, to present a
combined estate of the state"
and budget message.
The futile COP attempt to keep
Walls out of the House was made
by Minority Leader William T.
Best, Nassau. He asked his col
leagues to delay seating Walls
until the State Supreme Court
acts on a writ of mandamns In
which 1t is asked to reconvene
the Board of Canvass.
The writ was filed on behalf
of w. w. Baker, the defeated
Republican, who contends he
would have been elected If the
board had not thrown out 36 alb
sentee ballots on the grounds they
we're not properly signedby elec-
tion officials.
Best said he does not queS-
tion the integrity of Walls, but
that a Sussex inspector In the
9th Election District is facing
two criminal charges and that,
accordingly, the seat should be
left vacant until the litigation
is resolved.
Best later changed his state
ment to a formal petition, but
got nowhere when Rep. Sherman
w. Tribbitt, D-Odessa, who was
later unanimously elected speak
er of the House, pointed out there
Is no restraining order from
the State Supreme Court.
In his statement Best said that
the criminal charges pending and
the Supreme Court action, s1eave
this whole matter UP In the air".
