SEEK LOWER RATES
ON FIRE INSURANCE
Commercial Club Launches
Campaign to Reduce Cost
of Protection.

A campaign for lower fire insurance
rates in Richmond was launched last
night at meeting of the insurance
committee of the Commercial club.
A Is per cent decrease in basic rates
and lower general rate probably will
be the result. A campaign of publicity
to teach the citizens of Richmond how
to secure lower rates under the pres
ent rating system will also be under
taken.
This includes the promotion of such
movements as fire prevention day and
cleanup week. Little improvements,
costing almost nothing can be made on
property and lower rates obtained, it
was held Cleaning of cellars, wood
sheds and dumps aid in bringing about
the aver rate.
Within a short time the insurance
men of the city will be asked to meet
with the committee and cooperate
with it in the movement. The Indian
apolis bureau of insurance of the In
dianapolis Chamber of Commerce has
offered the Commercial club it's man
ayers to aid in the campaign.
Later, E. Nj. Sellers, head of the
Sellers Insurance bureau, will meet
with the committee members and the
list of recommendations he made in
1909 will be gone over. The commit
tee will be able to show him that every
recommendation but one has been car.
ried out. This is the purchase of an
aerial truck, which is not a pressing
matter.

NEGRO WILL CAUSE
NEXT WAR OF j. 5,

Racial Harmonization" as a neces-
sity to the future peace of the United
States will be the subject of the Rev.
Mr.. Jonah at a meeting of the Citizens
Union tonight at the colored Masonic
temple at Sixth and Main streets
Having just returned from tour
of the northern part of Mexico, where
he became acquainted with conditions
! in entire Mexico and especially in Viii
las army, Jonah is prepared to give
some startling facts of the danger OF
the United States and particularly of
the southern states.
The Welshman declares the south
ern people with their disdain of the ne
gro, as their refusal to see him in
any light other than as servile crea-
ture, will be the cause OF another
, civil or revolutionary war. 1t will be
a repetition of the rebellion, he says,
| but instead of fighting for the negro,
| it will be against the negro and some
other nation.
Jonah says his investigations have
shown that the Japanese, Mexicans
and Chinese are working to estrange
! the negro from the white people of the
United States.
! The meeting is open to the citizens
of Richmond who are interested in
learning more of the racial question as
applied to the whole United States.

HOLD CITY TEACHERS
School Officials Lose ONLY
One.

Richmond was fortunate in keeping
almost all teachers in the public
schools this year. Only a few re-
signed or left for other positions.
There is only one vacancy in the
whole teaching force of the city.
Miss Belle Bishop, shorthand teach
er at the high school, who is regarded
as one of the most successful instruc-
tors in the high school commercial
department, has resigned and her
place is unoccupied. She will teach
at kankakee.
Miss Florence Ratliff of this city, a
teacher in the Anderson schools, was
elected by the school board as teacher
in the Joseph Moore school. She fills
the teaching corps of the school. The
various teachers at the new school
have not been assigned to their

POLICE CHIEF GIVES
ADVICE TO GIRL

Chief Goodwin today gave a four
teen-year-old girl some fatherly advice
the child had never received at home.
He told her that no good would be de-
rived by her running the streets and
keeping company with man who is
said to be thirty-five years old. In
tears the child told him that in the
future she would be good girl Po-
lice say there are many other young
girls in Richmond badly in need of
such fatherly advice.

city TO ADVERTISE
FOR LIGHT SYSTEM
When Bids Come in Board
Will Determine Style of
Lamps.

Bids for 375 street lamps will be
advertised for some time next week
and until these bids have been re-
ceived no decision will be made as to
the type of lamp the city will pur-
chase, although the city officials
strongly favor the luminous arc
lamps
At the present time the city has 1926
street lamps which are not only anti
quated and provide poor illumination
but are also not located to the best
advantage in many instances 1t Is the
understanding of the board members
that the company which secures the
contract for the city's new street
lamps will provide an expert to locate
them in the most advantageous places
without expense to the city
The board is about determined not
to place ornamental posts on Main
street or any other of the principal
streets and will suspend lamps in
such places to trolley poles by the use
Of brackets. These brackets will be
of ornamental design and when they
and the posts are painted will provide
a most attractive appearance.
Placing arc lamps on ornamental
posts on Main street is opposed be-
cau:<A such a plan would double the
nuNer of poles now on that street,
noH too wide at the best, and not only
givA> it fenced in appearance, but
provide handicap to firemen in the
event of a blaze.
At Akron, O., one of the best illum-
mated cities in the country, city Off
Gals told Mayor Robbins and men,
bers of his party on their recent visit
there, that if the lighting system of
that city was to be rearranged,
lamps on business streets would be
attached to trolley poles and the or
namental posts removed.
