Votes on Radical Changes

Omitted Press Day Service)
Detroit, Mich, Feb. 10.--After ono
of the most spirited camp2ions in the
history of local politics, voters of De-
troit went to the polls today to ratify
or reject the proposed mex city char
ter, written last fall by n board of
charter commissioners. Early indica-
tions were that voting would he heavy
The proposed charter is considered
more or less of compromise between
the demands of those who wanted as
few changes as possible in the old doc
ument, but it leans to the radical rath-
er than the conservative side.
1t provides for a separation of city
from state and national elections; the
election of city officials every four
wears on a non-partisan ballot with a
preferential feature, permitting citi-
zens to vote for second and third
choices; concentration of power in
the hands of the mayor, who, like
other city officials. is made subject to
the recall; the initiative and referen-
dunn; municipal ownership of the gas
plant and the extension of the public
lighting service to private consumers
and control of telephone rates and
service by the common council. City
ownership of the street car lines was
authorized at special election last
April, but a new charter amendment
on that subject strengthens the old
provisions.
The old charter provides that the
common council shall be cut from SO
to 81 members, one from each city
ward. The board of estimates is abol-

AUTHOR BRINGS EARNINGS
TO BACK ANTARCTIC TRIP

+ New York, Feb. 10.-The reason Sir
Ernest Shackleton has been able to
announce that he has finally collected
the necessary funds for his Antarctic
expedition is that Sir j. M. Barrie,
the playwright, has come forwa I'd
with the remaining sum desired, it
was learned today.
The Barrie contribution, without
which the expedition would not have
been possible, was made with the
single stipulation that i: should be
kept private. Even now the Barrie
donation to the Shackleton fund il
not known in London. The sum with
which Barrie has rounded out the
funds deemed necessary for this
newest dash to the South Pole is
$4,000. The entire equipment
needed can now be furnished, ac-
cording to the estimate of Sir Ernest
Shackleton.
Charles Frohman, who has pro
duced all of j.. M. Barrie's plays in
England and America, and is one OF
his closest friends, explained tonight
the probable reason for Barrie S
great interest in the Shackleton
polar expedition.
"Knowing Mr.. Barrie's extreme
sensitiveness to any publicity con-
cerning his gifts" said Mr. Froh-
man, "I don't wish to be quoted as
confirming or denying the fact that
he has completed the sum necessary
for the Shackleton expedition. But
if you say it is SO, l can easily ex-
plain the donation to you. Naturally
everybody will be interested to
know the connection between one OF
the gentlest, shyest and most retlr-
ing of men with a huge, daring eXpe-
dition into a land already so tragic
for Englishmen.
"Two influences make Sir Ernest
Shackleton's coming polar eXpedi-
ton an event of the most absorbing
interest for J. M. Barrie. One influ-
ence is typical of Barrie sentiment
and the other is typical for Barrie
heredity. One Of the closest friends
of the late Capt. Scott amon@ the liv-
ing men of England was j. M. Barrie
"Capt. Scott was Sir Ernest Shack
leton's chief and Mr.. Barrie regards
the Shackleton expedition as a full
fillment of an ambition that Capt
Scott gave his life for. Barrie now
possesses one of the last messages
found beside Capt. Scott's body in
the tent that finally became his
grave.
"But heredity, too, enters largely
into the explanation of Mr.. Barrie :
interest in the Shackleton expedi-
ton. J. M. Barrie is, above all else.
his mothers son. He has told me
that as lad his mothers favorite
reading was the biography of ex-
plorers. This great admiration for
explorers, felt all her life by Barrie's
mother, worked out as an interesting
bit of heredity in Barrie himself"
