The Delaware School Boards
Association has added its voice
to those expressing concern
over proposed self-insurance of
state properly.
The association unanimously
adopted a resolution at its win
ter meeting in Dover Saturday
expressing concern that schools
might be caught without ade-
quate coverage under the pro-
posed self insurance plan.
The association went on rec
ord in favor of maintaining the
present level of insurance on
school property--that is insur-
ance on 90 per cent of a prop
ety's assessed valuation.
While not expressing a pre-
ference for any particular type
of insurance, the school group
indicated it wanted protection
at present levels, whether by
the state or private industry.
Gov. ElbertN. Carvel's fiscal
1864 budget contemplates a ssv-
ings of Sl95, 900 in fire and cas-
ualty insurance premiums by
launching the state on a self
insurance program.
The budget eliminates about
$295,0 in premium payments
and replaces it with a Sl00, 600
special fund to reimburse state
agencies for any losses.
The plan has been attacked
by the Delaware Association OF
insurance agents as "risky"and
a "gamble" with the states
$3.50 million worth of property.
The question of self-insur-
ance now is before an eight
man study committee named by
Carvel and Insurance Commis-
sioner Robert A. Short.
Also at its session, the DSBA
formally gave its support tc
six bills now before the General
Assembly. But one bill - tc
allow retired school employees
to come back to work in tirne
of critical need--was opposed
by the group.
The members expressed q
widespread fear of misuse" o.
the measure, SB 27. 1t was
pointed out that if the bill be-
came law, a teacher retiring
at relatively early age could &c
back at full salaryplus pension,
Bills which the group agreed
to support we're:
--SB %, which would subsi-
die students taking courses Of
study in out-of-state schools
that Delaware institutions dc
not offer.
lib 20, which would con-
solidate school districts. The
group agreed to seek changes
in some provisions.
HB l3, which calls for the
reversion of unspent construc-
tion funds.
--HB 7, which appropriates
over 81 million for emergency
school repairs. Some boards

Start Super
Taxi Service
at Dover AFB

Five-minute, "Super Taxi
Service" is now in effect at
Dover Air Force Base, thanks
to the lo07th transportation
Squadron.
The old system of reserving
a vehicle hours in advance is In
the past. Instead, base per-
sonnel give the motor pool a
ring five minutes prior to the
time they wish the vehicle.
(And pickup is prompt).
Initiating this system has
boosted the number of daily runs
from 80 to about 20 = 1873
per cent increase.
Officials in the transporta-
tion section say there are few
bugs in the new system, but
none are caused by drivers or
dispatchers. They say, THE
one problem encountered is that
after the drivers are dispatched
they have to wait on the riders.
But other than that the system
is working quite WE'LL"
To compensate for the extra
rigid schedules placed on driv-
ers, the squadron is building a
drivers lounge.
When queried about the "Sup-
er Taxi Service, one official
said. Esprit de corps Is at an
all time high among the drivers
and there has been an improve
ment in our operation"
Depending upon the utilization
of this five minute taxi service,
transportation people foresee
an increase up to 100 runs per
day.

20 Years Ago

New air raid signals, uni
form throughout the Eastern
Military Area, were announced
at meeting Of the Smyrna
Civilian Defense Council this
week. The new signals are eff
fective at 1901 am, Febru-
ary IL, l943. Changes also
we're made in the fire alarm
signal, in order to avoid con-
fusion. Hereafter, when the 81
rem blows one long and TWO short
blasts, this alarm will signify
a fire. The following are the
new signals which will be used
according to regulations re-
ceived from the Office of Ci-
Smyrna times., 1963-02-14

william Defense in Washington.
A long, steady blast on the
siren means that this is the
Blue Signal, meaning that en-
emy planes probably are COM
ing. Upon hearing this signal,
residents must black-out lights
in homes and business places.
Anyone in an automobile is to
proceed wherever he is going
with dimmed lights, and to start
thinking about getting TO a safe
place. Pedestrians are TO con-
slider where they will go if a
raid signal follows.
A series of short blasts on
the siren, a rising and falling
sound, signifies the Red Signal
meaning enemy plans are over
heard. All lights are to be
blacked out, drivers are to pull
TO the curb, turn out lights,
and seek shelter, and pedes-
trians are TO 60 to the nearest
air raid shelter. After the Red
Signal there will be a Blue
Signal. which is not an "All
Clear, but means that enemy
planes are no longer overhead,
but may return. Residents are
advised to keep alert. Lights
are to be kept blacked out,
but drivers andpedestrians may
proceed with caution. A Blue
Signal may not always come
before a Red Signal, if there
is not time, but a Blue Signal
always follows a Red Signal.
"All Clear" is the switching
on of the street lights.
To avoid misunderstanding
on the part of the public there
will be no registration at the
local War Price and Rationing
Board for War Ration Book
Two. A recent news release
listing the schools for regis
tration sites in the various
board areas throughout the State
of Delaware, may have lead the
public to believe that regis
tration would be held at the
Board offices. There will be
no registration at the Board
offices.
The public is reminded that
it will be necessary for them
to have with them, when they
register at the John Bassett
Moore School on February %
to 2o, a list of all canned goods
on hand over 5 ounces, ex-
elusive of home canned pro-
ducts, their War Ration Book
One will not be able to get
Book Two. Application may be
made at the local War Price
and Rationing Board by those
persons not having Book One
on or after March is, and re-
ceive Books One and Two. The
hours of registration at the
school on February 23rd to
10th, are from 10 am. to s
pm.
Amendment No. | to Stove
Rationing Regulations effective
January 80, l943 will enlarge
the list of persons who may
establish eligibility for acquir-
ing coal stove certificates from
the local War Price and Ra-
tioning Board, thereby conser-
wing fuel oil as well as off

misses by means of oil burn

The Health and Welfare
Council of the National Capital
area will study the impact of
future highways on the people
who live in its path.
The National Capital Plan
ming Commission has asked
HWC to look into relocation
problems of some families, and
the needs of others whose
neighborhoods will be changed
by the projected path of the
north leg of the inner loop.
NCPC is paying HWC $4,000
to do the job.
Isadore Seeman, executive
director of HWC, told the
HWC board yesterday that a
planning consultant, Miss Bar
bara Kemp, has been hired for
the study. She will direct inter-
views with families who live
along the projected route. One
possible path would be along R
street, running east and west
from Rock Greek Park to Fifth
street NV.
Last year, HWC worked with
NCPC in planning for people
in North Capitol West, a pro-
jected urban renewal area
around Union Station.

The plan of HWC and its
sister agency, the United Givers

to reality yesterday. The board
approved a resolution to be pre-
sented tomorrow to a third
agency, United Com unity

ward purchase or lease of land
being offered at a low rate
by the Redevelopment Land
