CurveI Calls For
Citizenship Day

"I urge all citizens Of Della
ware to participate by becoming
better acquainted with our Con-
stitution and with the guarantees
of freedom and liberty 1t pro-
vides for all our people," said
Governor Ebert N. Carvel this
week In endorsing the observance
of September II as "Citizenship
Day" and the period September
IL through September 23 as
"Constitution Week."
In statement issued at Dover,
Governor Carvel praised the
courage and foresight of those,
who, on September II, 1887, at
Philadelphia, signed what the
chief executive cited as ga docu-
ment that formed the foundation
for our own nation and establish
ed pattern for many other ma
tions seeking liberty and justice
under the law.'
Governor Carvel also pointed
out that con December z Of that
same year, thirty Delawareans :
by unanimous action gave to the
little state of Delaware the honor
Of being first to ratify this Fed
era1 Constitution" This action,
he noted, gave Delaware its nick
name of "The First State"
The full text of Governor Car
vel'S statement follows:
"On September II, 1887, a
courageous and foresighted group
of great American Statesman,
meeting In Convention at Phil
adelphia, affixed their signatures
to a document that formed the
foundation for our own nation and
established a pattern for many
/ other nations seeking liberty and
justice under law.
"On December 7 of that same
year, thirty Delawareans ten
from each Of the states three
counties met here In Dover
and by unanimous action gave to
the little state Of Delaware the
honor Of being first to ratify this
Federal Constitution. The i'm
portance of this action is indicat-
ed by the fact that we proudly
refer to our State as fThe First
State' and Delaware is accorded
the place of honor at national
celebrations and gatherings.
fDoWn through the years, our
Constitution has safeguarded the
principles of liberty, justice and
opportunity for all Americans
while providing the framework
for the growth and progress Of a
great Nation.
"Now, the President of the
United States, in compliance with
appropriate joint resolution of
The Congress, has again desig-
mated the seventeenth day of Sep
tember as citizenship Day, an
occasion for appropriately COM
memorating the great event that
occurred at Philadelphia 176
years ago, and the period Sep
tember II through September %
as Constitution Week, a time
for commemoration of the acts
and events which followed the
drafting and signing of this great
and significant document.
''I welcome the opportunity to
wholeheartedly endorse this OBJ
servance and I urge all citizens
of Delaware to participate by be-
coming better acquainted with
our Constitution and with the
guarantees of freedom and lib
erty 1t provides for all our peo-
pie. During this period, let us
resolve to dedicate ourselves
to the preserving and protecting
Of our Constitution and the A.
merican Way of Life which it has
made possible.

you about it. At the D. C. wharf
we often buy clans and when
we do we get at least two dozen
at a time. Naturally, we don't
use that many at once, but we
freeze them. Have you ever
tried this? They're so nice to
have in the freezer, on hand for
seafood hungry guests. Wash
them well, put them In the
freezer, and when you want them
for chowder take them out a
couple Of hours early. AS they
thaw they open and there is
really time saver! We like
potatoes, onion and bacon in our
chowder. It's so easy to fix and
so good!
Leslie today has been to
kindergarten all OF four days.
Last night l asked her at dinner
If the teacher knew her name
yet and she said, ayes, it's
LeSlle." We all just roared.
Dinner time is a "catching up''
time in our house. We usually
don't get to eat until seven, six
thirty at the earliest, and by
that time we have lots to tell
the other members Of the family
about the days activities. Lynne
and Dawn always have school
news to convey, Of course, and
Leslie was quite perturbed that
she couldn't participate in the
news-telling and AT LAST this
year she, too, can join in.
We go to court tomorrow night

you about it next week.

School days are here again
and once more I have my little
pre-school visitors, Dawn and
Mark Fisher. They are real
1 JOY, and we discuss many things
together as we go about the
household routine. Together we
make beds, do dishes, feed the
chickens, empty trash and
garbage, take care Of the dogs
and cats and plan our lunches.
After the lunch dishes are done,
we all three take our maps in
the living room. We load the
stereo with records, and they
settle down on the sofa, while

clining chair. | really take lots
more rest when they are here,

pressure, so DR.. Gray says.

ing with my teenage daughter.
She IS in the 18th grade this
year, so l am learning Spanish.
l was little disappointed that
she could not get French this
year, because I wanted a re-
fresher course in French my
self. However, it will be fun
to learn Spanish. l could not
do much with it at the time
Ronald took it, because then
Ellen was small and there were
two old and sick grandparents in
the house to care for.
am also learning Gregg
shorthand with Ellen. l am so
ancient that l write only the
Pittman method. Now, even
Gregg is revised, SO l am
making curlicues on the paper
and find it quite easy. l hope
the time will never come when
cannot study something.
once more we have done the
weeks marketing. Since our son
and daughter have grown up, we
no longer have the problem Of
buying the cereal that has the,
correct box top or the prize
inside. l was always so CRATE
full to the cereal companies who
put the prize right in there
where small hands could plunge
in and recover 1t.
Then on our marketing tours,
there is the soap problem. Him

widely advertised for B. O.;
Ellen favors the one with the
cold cream added; and Old

Congressional action.
The President personally
urged House District Commit
tee Chairman Mcmillan, Dem
ocrat of South Carolina, to
hold hearings soon on the Fed
eral payment-loan and District
tax program, proposed by the
White House. Mr.. Mcmillan
promised such hearings as
soon as his committee winds I'D

legislation.
But Chairman Mcmillan long
has opposed larger real estate
taxes-the core Of the Presi-
dents local tax increase pro-
posal.
If Treasury estimates are
considered reliable, some OBJ
servers believed that Congress-
men might question tax rate
increases at the same time
yields from present rates could
bring in at least as much.
One Senate economist said
the s to 8 per cent increases
fixed in the States might not
apply in the District because
the health Of private business
could have less impact here
than in areas supported by
private industry. Federal ac-
tivity wields major impact
here, he reasoned.
No Reason
A Treasury spokesman said
he knew Of no reason why
the District was excluded from
the list of States, except that
the city is not a State.
Both congressional and ad-
ministration aides agreed that
the Treasury calculation of ex-
panded economic activity an
ticipated from the Presidents

tive estimate"
In broad terms, the compu-
taSion assumed that a $40 bill

Council members also moved

President Kennedy's tax cuts
could increase District tax rev.
enues by $14 million annually
by 1865, administration figures
indicated yesterday.
The windfall would follow
more local tax dollars paid by
stimulated business, aided by
Federal tax benefits.
This yield, at current tax
rates, is more than the Presi-
dent estimated would come to
the District through the local
tax rate increases recon-
mended by the administration.
The figures are speculative.
They, assume that the White
House would guess that busi-
ness activity spurred by Fed
eral tax cuts would raise Dis
trict tax yields to comparable
levels estimated for the States.
Increases Estimated
State estimates run from 6
to 8 per cent increases in local
and State revenues in each of
the so States.
Senator Douglas, Democrat
OF Illinois, released the Treas
ury Department statistics to-
day with this assessment:
"The estimate is heartening
news for State and local tax
payers.
THE additional revenue
which should come to the
States and to their local gov
ernments when the Presidents
program is fully in effect would
provide substantial relief from
the critical financial problems
which State and local govern
ments are now facing"
President Kennedy. while
recommending q national tax
cut, has asked for District tax
increases to produce 50 million
in 1864 and from $ll to $12
million in 1865 and 1866.

hike. This can be imposed by

port has been submitted, and
comments received from the

Grated with a special tax levied

Mr.. Kordella recommended
against a request for setting up

there is adequate parking at
