of absolute certainly that vicious and
illegal dives can not exist in any we'll
policed town without the knowledge
of the police and equally absolute that
these can not exist and flourish un-
der determined and sincere effort of
the police powers to abolish them.
So country people, and the people
of the smaller towns and cities which
group about Marshalltown az the me-
tropolis of central Iowa, watch and
note with a personal interest the cleo
tions and the administrations of the
biggest town in their territory. Smaller
towns are demanding of Cedar Rapids
abolition of the saloons under threat of
loss of trade. They assert that they
will refuse to patronize the merchants
of that city unless their sons are pro-
tected by the city. a clean city in a
country community like that of central
Iowa is an asset to the meTchandizers.
The people of the courtrIsides and
contiguous towns demand safety first
for their youth.
Two things every city needs in adj
ministrative circles: A clean city where
Inc ponce powers make WdT instead OIL
fellowship with vice, and cusinesslike
administration Of business affairs. The
! theory that vice and vicious resorts
are necessary to the maintenance OF
business has been most thoroughly
! exploded. On the contrary the clean
! town is the prosperous town 1t is an
! insult to the high character of Iowa
citizenship to assume otherwise.

HAVE A "JITNEY' SMILE
Jensen Says: This Summer People Will
Take "Jitney" Rides instead OF Joy
Rides-Save Time, Take the "Jitney."

Have a "jtney smile is the latest,
and Jensen says: The women of Mar
shalltowr are much quicker to catch on
to new ideas than the men as they
have that smile" and all ride.
1t will be jitney rides this summer
instead of the joy ride.
Jensen is right when he says the
people want time, not service. 1t is
like taking dinner in cafeteria, its
help yourself and don't expect table
de hote dinner for the same price. The
idea of the "jitney" is quick service,
when you want one and see it just
raise your hand and it will stop for
YOU. If you want the service to stop
at your house then phone 513. It's only
% cents to any part of the city on
the paved streets. Jensen.

CUSHING DAMAGED
BY GERMAN BOMBS
American Minister Van Dyke Reports
American Steamer Was Hit by
Missiles From German Aircraft.

r
Washington, May 1.-American
minister Van Dyke at, The Hague, re-
ported to the state department to-
day that the American steamer Cush-
ing from Philadelphia Yor Rotter-
dam was damaged by bombs dropped
from German aircraft in the North
Sea but that no lives were lost.
The report was brier, transmitting
a message from the American consul
Mt Rotterdam, where the Gushing ar
rived yesterday. It gave no indication
/cf the nature or extent of the damage.
Officials here said the case was the
first of its kind during the present
war and that so far as they could
recollect there was no precedent in
other wars. While there are no inter
national conventions specifically cover
ing the incident, it was generally be-
lieves today that representations
would be made to Germany with re-
quest for payment Of damages on the
ground that a neutral vessel, which
under ordinary rules Of international
law should be free from molestation,
had been attacked
1t was not thought in official quar-
ters that any serious issue would be
raised, because it is accepted that the
bombs were not dropped deliberately
Tut under the impression that hos
tile vessel was being attacked.
The Cushing had $4,000 insur-
ance on her hull and cargo, issued by
tile government wils risk She is a
Standard Oil boat formerly under
German registry and named the Pro-
netheus.
