NEW YORK, April Tho New
York papers showed marked differ
ence Of opinion today in their COM
ment on the Panama tolls repeal bill
in the house. Some devoted them
selves to Speaker Clark's speech,
touching but lightly on the passage
of the bill.
Following are some excerpts from
leading editorials on the subject.
The Press (Progressive)-To dead
certainty the American people, are not
in sympathy with calumny, insult and
vituperation belched at President VIII
son in the campaign against his re-
peal of the exemption clause Of the
Panama canal law.
/ The American observation-disclosures
cratis)-The transcontinental rail-
roads aided by the British foreign
office and the President of the United
State have won the first battle In
their war upon the Panama canal as
a regulator of railroads. The house
of representatives has alienated, so
far as it's power goes. the only useful
ness the Panama canal possessed as q
check upon the extortions of the trans
continental railroads and as a finan-
cier in the upbuilding of the American
merchant marine. ... .
The World (Democratic)-The peo-
pie have had several opportunities of
late to take Champ Clark's measure,
but never one like that afforded by
yesterdays self-revelation. AS per-
fidious migrate in command Of dis
credited Republican minority and a
handful of boiling Democrats, he Is
not only weak, but futile. Like any
other advocate of a ship subsidy at
Panama. Mr.. Clark took refuge behind
an artifice.

is it to be regretted that the Re
publican party did not stand more SOL
idly behind the president.

no reason why Republicans should
oppose the repeal bill simply because

Superintendent Ford Makes
| Plans for Making Various
improvements at City's big
! Fairgrounds.
no BUILD UP ROADS
Flower Beds to be Set Out,
Lake Spillway Repaired
: and New Home for Three
Alligat0rs Built.

Spring cleaning will soon have Glen
Miller park in it's grasp. superintend-
ent Charles Ford and force of men
have been busy raking the leaves from
the ground. This operation is done
each year as soon as good weather
"opens up.
According to the plans Of Superin-
tendent Ford the park will take on a
new appearance within the next
month. Several contemplated changes
will take place. The building of two
alligator pools, re-arranging Of flower
beds, re-surfacing roads, and rear
rangement of animal cages will be
completed before the summer season
opens.
New Alligator "Home."
Glen Miller now houses three alli-
gators. One has been at the park for
the last five years, and the other two
are young, one arriving last year and
the last one sent by Clifford Price to
Mayor Robbins a few weeks ago.
1t is the plans of the park superin-
tendent to build two new pools. The
pools will be circular with concrete
basins. There will be small sand
island in the center of the miniature
bask in the Indiana sun. These tiny
lakes will be surrounded by high wire
fences.
To Set Out Flowers.
Flowers and potted plants which
will be set in the ground within a
few weeks are being planted in the
park dollhouse. There is some talk
among lodgemen to revive the custom
Of each organization maintaining a
flower bed at the park. This matter
we preached last year but was post
poned.
The spillway at the end of the lake
will be remodeled and in many places
strengthened by pouring extra con
crete piers. When the freshet came
last year the dam was materially
weakened and in fact so weak that ir
some places the concrete has crumbleC
away. Stone masons and concrete
handlers will be employed to repair
the spillway.
superintendent Ford Is anxious te
inform all automobile owners and
drivers to refrain from driving on the
park roads during the rainy weather
At this time, especially, the roads are
very soft. so that the heavy machines
would destroy the surface and necessi
tate a large expenditure for repairs
Plans are under consideration FOL
the re-arranging Of some of the ami
NAL cages The superintendent is at
tempting to place all the cages along
the one shady walk The cages which
now are scattered around the center
of the park will be moved to locations
along the main walk.
