URGES SUBSTITUTE
FOR L|NSEED OIL
Speaker at Painters Convention De
clares That High Price Of Lin.
ied Makes Change Imperative.

That some substitute for linseed oil
in the manufacture OF paint must be
found or invented, was the emphatic
declaration of John Dewar. OF Pitts
burg. in the meeting of the Master
Painters and Decorators association
In the Wayne Gardens THURSDAY
morning. He based his assertion on
the fact that linseed oil has jumped
from 40 TO 80 cents per gallon. II
would be much more profitable for
northwestern farmers TO raise flax
than wheat in view OF these prices. he
asserted.
George d. White. of Newark, n. j.,
read a paper on waterproofing and on
painting cement. In this he spoke OF
the uses OF ning-to oil. imported from
China, and which, he said formed q
vehicle that would carry the pigment
and cling to cement surfaces There
was much discussion OF the qualities
OF this Chinese oil as a possible com
petitor with linseed oil

MAYOR MAY URGE
CITY OWNERSHIP
This Is Program if D. U. R. Refuses
To Make Just Bargain-Negotia-
tions To Be Hurried.

Although sessions OF the committee
OF fifty and OF the franchise commit
tee OF the common council have not
yet begun and cannot wen begin until
the reports OF the "hftys' sub-com-
mittees are printed, program has
ALREADY been laid out for rushing
through consideration of the question.
Ii Is on the success of this program
that Mayor Breitmeyer bases his hope
for an early submission OF the street
railway question TO the people.
As outlined now. the franchise vote
will be taken between July 10 and
Aug. ! next This is contingent upon
one thing besides the length OF time
necessary for negotiations, that one
thing being the fate of the municipal
ownership charter amendment TO be
voted on in June.
1t may even develop that the city
administration will be urging municl-
pal ownership before that time. That
Is something that depends upon the
attitude OF the Detroit United Rail
way management.
Just as soon as the reports are
pI inteu. the committee OF fifty will be
GdllGu lOBNAANl III frequent oNooAoAAos
The u. U. r. management will be CIV
Ell only a limited time to controveit
tho statements made in the sub-com-
mittee reports OF the fifty Hear
ings on the whole matter will be held
during a week or ten days more, and
then the negotiations for permanent
settlement will be on.
Mayor Breitmeyer will stand by the
decision OF the committee OF fifty and
the council franchises committee as
Ia what is a fair and just settlement
If the ID. u. r. will accept such set
Element. then the proper notice OF
election will be given. But If the ID.
Il. r. delays or refuses TO make a
Just bargain, the administration forces
arc likely TO urge the adoption OF the
municipal ownership amendment
which will have been passed upon by
the council in the meantime.
Given the completion of the printed
reports by March land the mayor
hopes that the printing may be done
earlier-the intention is to end nego-
tiations with the d. u. r. by Marcn
20, If possible. and by April as the
outside limit.
In any event, there will be vote
on municipal ownership before there
Is q vote on a franchise.
The council committee on charter
and city legislation has the municipal
ownership amendment in charge, and
is expected to report in favor OF sub
hitting il to the people. this action
coming this month and about month
ahead OF the earliest possible submis-
sion OF franchise agreement
If the municipal ownership amend
mcnt should carry, the later election
can be held for the purpose of voting
OH the security franchise which is re-
CURED in any plan for the municipal
operation of street railways.
A request came TO the mayor this
week for his permission for the
municipal ownership advocates TO
place men At downtown corners 10
secure signatures to their petitions for
tie submission OF the question. AS
surance was given that there would
not be the slightest objection from the
mayors office.

II Is said that at important court

diamond bracelets, many Glamol@

wonderful precious stones and a few
superfiuous jewels were affixed To the
imperial fan.
During the court functions two
pages watched necessarily TO make
sure that none OF the gems were lost.
Most of the jewelry is the property
OF the Prussian crown and descends
from empress TO empress. The En-
press own iewelry is worth less than
that OF many mld6le-class ladies' At
the conclusion OF each court festiyity
the crown jewels are replaced in fire
proof safes and guarded day and night
by military sentinels. No one out
the ladles-in-waitine is allowed to re-
move the jewels from the Empress.
Four court ladies' attend this work
and sign a statement witnessing the
safe return OF the valuables TO the
safe. The greatest formalities are al

Political PalaVer

Mayor Breitmeyer is not quite as
sure about coming up for reelection
as his close friends would like him to
be. He las given more time to the
work OF mis- Office. and to the hundreds
OF people who like to drop in and tell
their troubles 70 the mayor. than any
Of his predecessors I'm many years.
Therefore. ne has found that his time
has been largely lost to his extensive
private business interests
II is this question as TO whether he
wants To spare another two years for
public duties that gives a certain APP
pearanco OF doubt TO his candidacy.
Il have started number of things
that ! think will be for the benefit Of
the city. and il would take another
two years 10 bring these policies TO
completion he says. But do not
want TO be mayor unless the people OF
this city approve OF my policies. |
do not want the office for my per-
sonal qualification. The work is inter
esting aud like II, and would like TO
continue IL.
AS to his success, II he should be-
cone a candidate Mayor Breitmeyer
has not even doubt.

IAN for the nomination last year
against Milton Oakman, is expected 10
be a candidate for the legislature next
fall but he Ia reckoned on as formid-
able bidder for the authorship two
years hence.
Two factors are disturbing the Re-
publican leaders this year with regard
10 their bearing ON the mayoralty cleo
ton. One Is the Prohibition vote. and
the other the German vote OF the east
side. The voters who support the Pro
nibiton ticket as a matter OF princi-
pie are reckoned as being, for the most
part. naturally Republicans, since they
come from the conservative element

quently. a stronger campaign in the

peCted this year.
AS far as the German vote, the cry
is going out that the Germans have
gone back on Breitmeyer. 1t will take
the election returns to prove whether
this is true The Republicans will be
able to point TO the appointment Of
Public Works Commissioner Haarer,
Assessors Marx and Plass and numer-
