American municipalities have proved entirely
valid the economic theory of using bonds to finance
permanent public improvements. A raise in the
taxrate temporarily may provide part of the money
Honolulu needs now but is entirely unlikely to pro-
vide enough Ultimately We shall expect both bust
ness organizations and public officials to find the
bond-issue is logical necessity.

HOTEL BUSINESS
DECLINES RAPIDLY
BECAUSE OF STRIKE

That business firms of the larger
cities fear the threatened nationwide
railway strike is evidenced in the fact
that travelling men business" at the
Richmond hotels has dropped off fully
fifty per cent during the last week.
But few travelling men registered at
local hotels today. Those who did ar.
rive In Richmond to make" the town
were representatives Of firms near
Richmond. Many travelling men who
did register at local hotels were grad
ually working closer to their home
bases.
With the travelling men contingent
a near minus quantity at the Richmond
hotels 1t remains for automobile par
ties to keep the clerks busy. Ma
chine parties who registered here last
night were more numerous than for
some time.

HARRY COOPER HELD
FOR LOOT|NG SAFE.

Harry Cooper, who will be Is years
old September II, was arraigned in
city court today on a charge of hav-
ing stolen $40 from the safe of his
employer, Lester Hudson, a black
smith. He pleaded guilty. The boy
appears to be at least Fl years old,
but when it was learned that he was
not yet 16 the prosecution of the
petit larceny case against him was
halted and he was sent to the Home
for the Friendless pending arraign-
ment in juvenile court Cooper was
greatly chagrined when placed in the
custody of women. The boy is really
too old to be sent to the home, but
too young to be kept in county Jail.
The boy admits that he entered the
Hudson shop night before last, opened
the safe by working the combination,
and helping himself to $40. He states
that he has worked at four different
places since coming to Richmond last
April, in each instance neglecting to
inform his employers that he was
under the age limit provided in the
child labor law

WANTS TOWNSHIP
SCHOOL ERECTED
NEAR CAMBRIDGE

81 will favor the establishment Of
a central school for Jackson township
whenever it is decided that the build
ing should be erected west Of Cam
bridge City," DR.. A. E. Ehle, trustee
said today.
The reason for wanting the school
located outside of the town was so
that he could force all township school
children to attend it. If the building
were erected in Cambridge City, he
would be forced to give transfers into
Dublin schools to children who lived
near it. When the township transfers
are withdrawn from Dublin, it means
that Dublin too must join in the cen
trail school proposition.
Wants Land for Farming.
"If the school is built while I am
trustee, it will be surrounded by at
least IS acres of good farm land
said DR.. Ehle. Agriculture will be
taught more and more in the schools
as time progresses and Jackson will
be ready in a practical way"
DR.. Ehle said that he voted against
the Dublin school district because he
could not see why it would be the
best thing for the township inasmuch
as it would cut off part of the school
revenues
Even though new central school
building were erected, it would not
boost the tax rate in Jackson town.
ship any higher than it is at present
in some of the other townships, despite
the fact that several miles of concrete
road improvements have just been
contracted for, he explained.

ROADS OPPOSE
8-H0UR BILL
FIXING RATES

CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-The railroads
will fight to a finish any legislation
which puts railroad operation on an
eight-hour basis, even though such &C.
ton by congress averts the threatened
strike.
This was the attitude today of heads
of dozen big western roads, who are
here directing the preparation for the
rail ueup. An eight-hour day, they
held, is impractitable to railroad op.
Grafton, and they do not believe the
roads can be forced to accept such a
mandate.
E. P. Ripley, the veteran president
of the Santa Fe, acted as spokesman
for his colleagues, and he expressed
himself in no uncertain terms regard
ing the proposed legislation.
Measure Fixes Rates.
"As l understand it," he said, this
legislation proposes that the railroads
shall adopt an eight-hour day, paying
for it the same as we now pay for ten.
I don't think congress has any such
right, and even If does pass the bill
it doesn't mean the railroads will
agree to it. Even if it is passed and
the unions call off the strike 1t GER
tainly will not end the matter. It will
be case for the courts to determine
whether congress has not exceeded its
authority"
President Ripley's sentiments were
echoed by Hale Holden, president OF
the Burlington.
1T is my understanding" he said,
chat the supreme court already has
held in two cases that congress has
absolutely no power to fix wages, and
that is what the Adamson bill amounts
to-"

PRODUCE Nets TOP
PRICES ON MARKET

Farmers in the neighborhood of the
city fortunate enough to have at least
fair crops of fall produce are receiv-
ing the best prices in years, local deal
ers in produce say. Home grown po-
tatoes, melons, apples. tomatoes and
cabbage are all bringing top prices on
the local market.
But few features mark the Rich
mond produce market this week.
Sweet potatoes and tip top melons,
home grown and of good quality are
the new faces in local market stalls
for the Richmond housewife this Sat
urday. Both are selling at staple
prices.
Irish potatoes continue scarce and
local dealers predict but little decrease
in the unusually high price Of the
tubers at present. The "spuds" are
now retailing at 1925 a bushel.
