HANLY veToss MADE LAND BILL
Refuses TO Confirm Title Along Lake
in Steel Corporation.

lndianapolis.-Go Hanly has We
toed the bill introduced by Rep
resentative Faulkner for the purpose
of giving the title Of certain submerg-
ed land al the Indiana end Of Lake
Michigan 10 the owners of the land
abutting the lake IL was introduced
In the interests Of the United States
Steel Corporation and the town OF
Gary.
The veto was based on two reasons
that the bill in its present form
probably is not constitutional. and that
IL safeguards the rights OF neither the
state nor the steel corporation.
As the bill reads. those owning
property on the lake front could get
the title to the submerged lands. out
TO the dock line. by having prepared
a plat showing the number OF acres
thus submerged. This done. the state.
on receiving s25 an acre. was to turn
over the title To such land 10 the
property owners This submerged
land was to be filled in and the steel
company was 10 build on it.
The governors veto suggests that
the title should not be given until the
land actually has been fielled In.

JUVENILE NATURE FAKES
CRUSHED BY PROFESSOR
President Jordan of Leland Stanford
University Sides with President
RooseveIt-M other Goose
Beliefs Shattered

BOSTON. Mass. Sept. president
Jordan of Leland Stanford university
at the convention of biologists said
that he agreed with President Roose-
welt rather than with his critics on the
question of nature taking. When
asked If it were possible for wolf to
kill bull moose with single bite
he said:
81 do not believe it is possible at all.
1 should lay my bets on the moose"
When asked If dog could kill
wolf with twenty bites, he said that 1t
largely depended on. what kind of
dog it was and where he bit the wolf.
When asked about the wolf guiding
lost children home, he said If he had
children that he was fond of he would
select some other guide for them.
He was asked his opinion as to the
declaration made to the effect that fish
have been able to swim up waterfalls.
In reply he said that undoubtedly fish
were able to swim up rapids and
sluiceways alongside of dams, but as
for swimming up precipitous waterfalls
the idea was ridiculous.
