Frosted Drink

Detroit, July 21.-Mayor Codd Is In
earnest in his campaign for municipal
ice houses. City plants will be estab-
ished next winter and ice will be, fur
nished the householders Of Detroit at
the actual cost Of production.
81 have taken this matter up with
Park Commissioner Breitmeyer and the
water commissioners, " said Mr.. Codd.
ttThe plan is to erect number OF ice
houses on the water board property,
just east Of the pumping station. The
ice can be cut principally around Belle
Isle, which the city of Detroit owns.
tThe park department has number
of men and superintendents. who have
very little to do in the winter months.
The work of cutting and storing the ice
can be put in their charge.
stThe cost to the consumer can be
held down to the actual cost Of the
maintenance of the municipal ice de-
partment. The plan would be god
send to the struggling. poor.
"It would be my aim to supply the
householders first Later we could ex-
tend the scope Of our operation.

Chicago, July 21.-The Chicago
Tribune does not take much stock in
the reported plan of James J. Hill to

ambitious scheme which he is said to

THE plan and scope Of investigation
of the life insurance business in this
State as outlined at the first meetings
of the Senate investigation committee
differ radically from the plan sugges-
ted by the Colbyites last winter, they
assuming that the financial methods
of at least one of the big companies
organized in this State were irregular
and corrupt and that it needed to be
hauled over the Goals. The Senate
committee is not acting on such i'll adj
vised assumption, but is first seeking
light on the actual situation and also
invites suggestions from any source as
to reforms needed or legislative re
strictions which should be applied tc
the life insurance business. The com
mittee's attitude is not one of hostil
ity to life insurance or to particular
company, as was the ill-disguised atti
tude of the Colbyites, bnt one of hon
est inquiry and disposition to be
lieve that the companies are managed
well and their methods not to be con
demned until bad practices are re
yealed.
