ACTIVITY AMONG MAKERS
Many Detroit Makers Are Said
To Be About Ready to Make
Necessary Pledges.

Western automobile makers are thor
oushly in earnest about the proposition to
build n stone road across the continent
and believe that the project IL destined
to be carried through within the next I'VE
years, and possibly in time for the open
ing OF the Panama Pacific Exposition In
San Francisco during 1915 This If the
assertion Of c. =. Henderson. president or
the Henderson Motor Company, OF Indian
apolis, who spent Friday in this city IN
conference with wally owen, the COM
pany's representative In the Eastern ter
rttory.
That little has been heard recently OF
the great idea does not mean inactivity
according to Mr.. Henderson. The work
that Is under way right now Is TO Induce
the Detroit manufacturers 10 get back or
the project with the same unanimity that
marked the initiation OF the movement In
Indianapolis under the spur OF Carl
Fisher and James A. Allison. Many OF
the Detroit makers have practically de-
cided TO pledge their share-that is, per
cent of their gross earnings for a year or
one-third OF ! per cent for three years.
While Detroit Is the principal point or
activity on behalf tf the stone road Mt
this time, the motor car builders in other
cities are giving the project close con-
sideration. There are more than go plants
in the United States devoted exclusively
to the production of complete cars and
several times that number OF accessory
plants. and IT is the hope OF the origina-
tors OF the idea that they will be able to
induce nearly all these manufacturers. as
well as users OF cars, to help along.
Owners will be able TO contribute by TAX
ing out memberships in the association.
The proposition is entirely feasible from

published by The Power Wagon" there
are from 30 to 60 automobiles to every

OF motor buses has increased from Al in

horse buses has during the same period
dropped from 75 to H. In other words.

 CLOSED DOORS.

Little Rock, June 4.-After a se- cret caucus in the mayors office last ing few minutes, the city council brought up the franchise to furnish electrical current of the Arkansas Cold Storage Company and passed it by vote of Ii to 2. Aldermen Whit comb and Younger stood out against the ordinance, but the following al- dermen voted in favor of it: Me Cain, Harper, Leiser, Rogoski, Smith, Hollis, Lange, Cunningham, Adams and Pardee. Immediately after the minutes of the preceding meeting were read, Alderman Smith moved that the regular order of business be dispensed with and the franchise matter be taken up. The ordinance was then read the third time and passed without discussion. If there was any fighting it was evidently in the star chamber session.
 The Arkansas Cold Storage Con- pany, by the terms of the franchise, is granted the right to lay pipes, con- du;ts, wires, etc., through the city and supply electricity for term of 30 years. It is required on January 20 of each year to pay into the city treasury one-half of one per cent of the gross receipts during the first 10 years, one per cent of the gross re- ceipts during the second 10 years, provided that no annual payment shall be less than $500.

Little Rock, June 4.-Political chaos and governmental anarchy are certain results of literal interpre- .tatlon of the initiative and referen- dunn, especially what is known as the Joker; this is the deliberate opinion 'of Ashley Cockrill of Little Rock president of the Arkansas Bar Asso- ciatlon, in a learned address deliver ed by him at the opening of the an- nual convention of that organization. lie pointed out the inevitable result of the application of the principle of direct leg station to the constitution showing that it is thereby made un- stable and a practical nullity.
