COMMITTEE AGREE
ON RER0UT|MG PLAN
Would Run Cars From Gintcr Park
Through to Broad Rock
Road.
INTERESTED PARTIES AGREE
Plan for Highland Park Change Is
Tabled for Meeting OF Committee
OF New Council in September.

After hearing from Assistant City
Attorney George Wayne Anderson,
Captain A. B. Guigon, and members
of the committee yesterday evening.
a ub-committee on streets, embrac-
ing Aldermen Powers, Gunst and
Councilman Atkinson. adopted reso-
luton offered by Mr.. Gunst. recon-
mending an ordinance providing for
the rerouting of the street car lines
from Ginter Park to upper Hull
Street.
A companion resolution rerouting
the Highland Park line. so that 1t
might Join the Forest Hill line at
Seventh and Broad Streets, was ia
bled, to be considered in September,
after the reorganization of the City
Council.
The ordinance as recommended, 1t
was stated last night, meets the ap-
street car people. the residents of the
Northside. and the residents of the
Southside.
The ordinance provides for a double
track on First Street, and eliminates
certain tracks, including the Rich
mond and Henrico tracks In Jackson
Ward, except on Fifth Street from
Baker to Broad. From Baker Street
the tracks are to run to Broad. at
Fifth, thus eliminating the tracks on
Seventh Street.
This will make the stopping point
at Broad Street--at Fifth and Broad,
instead of at Seventh and Broad. as
now effective.
During the period Of rerouting the
First Street cars, the company Is per-
mitted to discontinue temporarily the
use of the tracks from Broad to
Baker Streets, the temporary aban-
| donment not to exceed the period of
eighteen months.
In the meantime the Seventh and
Broad terminal will remain.
The plan IL to run the Richmond
and Henrico line from Church Hill,
on to First Street thence to Ginter
Park. and on to the Northside.
This will eliminate the Richmond
and Henrico tracks from Jackson
Ward. and It Is the idea OF all con-
cerned TO give the Highland Park
people straight line into Broad
Street at Fifth.
With this plan the cars from La
burnum Avenue and Cham IBERIA YIN e
will reach the city at First Street and
will go down Broad TO Seventh, to
Main. to Fourteenth, to Hull. Re-
turning from the Southside over the
same route, the cars will run up Mint h
/ Street TO Broad and thence to First.
The Richmond and Henrico cars
Will run from the eastern terminus
to First and Broad instead of to Fifth.
as at present. and proceed to the
! Northstde and return the same way.
| Nothing in the proposed ordinance
shall affect the question as to foes
| for the use OF Mayo Bridge That
question Is now in the courts, and
both the city and the company waive
all consideration of that In passing
upon the proposed ordinance.
| In a word. II the ordinance is
adopted by Council. It will mean a
through line from Ginter Park to
Swansboro. with a ten-minute sched-
ule, and with sufficient number of
cars TO handle the traffic.
! The full committee will meet on
July "a. at which time the proposed
ordinance as recommended by the
subcommittee will be disposed of, so
Council may act before IT passes
away,

MUST PAY TAX ON
INTEREST SECURED
In Recording Deed Of Trust Law
{ Makes Unreasonable Requirement.
But 1t Must BE Paid.

State Auditor c.. Lee Moore yester-
day sent out circulars to all the clerks
of courts of the State. advising that
the tax laws for recording deeds of
trust or mortgages requires that the
tax for recording be based upon the
amount of bonds or other obligations
mortgages, and in computing the tax
the clerks must include not only the
principal, but the interest, whether
the interest be evidenced by obliga-
tons or not.
Mr.. Moore requested the opinion
from Leslie G. Garrett. Assistant At
Etorney-Generaf, at the instance OF
Nelms. Colonna and McMurran, at
torneys OF Newport News. The ques-
ton arose over the payment OF taxes
on the interest on promissory notes,
this interest obligation not being
secured by separate notes
Mr.. Garnett says the law requires
that on deeds OF trust or mortgages
the tax shall be upon the amount OF
bonds or other obligations secured
thereby The interest obligation Is
Just as much secured whether It il
evidenced by separate note or not Mr..
Garnett declares, and he says where
deed of trust secures the payment
OF a principal sum with interest.
whether or not either the principal
or interest Is represented by notes,
both the principal and interest are to
Fhe con sidered as the amount secured
fby the deed of trust for the purpose OF
fixing the tax on the deed.

CUSTER LAW CAUSE
FLOOD OF QUEal0


The passage OF the Custer law haxs
brought into the office of Attorney~
General Pollard a food OF Inquiries
concerning tho duties of various local
officers. especially In reference to the
enforcement of the Sunday and liquor
laws.
Under the statute the Attorney-
General Is only legal adviser at the
seat of government to government Of:
ficeholders. and he is. therefore. not
empowered to render official opinions
to justice OF the peace. county shsrif4
notaries public and other officers. but
as a matter OF personal courtesy to
those who enquire. he has referred
them to section 1912 of the code.
which makes every Judge. justice Of
the peace, clerk in chancery. notary
public and county surveyor a COM
servator OF the peace, which means
that II is the duties of these officers.
as we'll as constables to arrest, or
cause TO be arrested, those who violate
the laws in their presence.
The Attorney General has also re-
ferred all inquiries to the provision
of section 39SS OF the code, which re-
quires every sheriff, constable or other
s1offlcer to give information of the
violation of any penal law TO the Com.
monwealth's Attorney. who must in
stitute and prosecute all proper pro-
ceedings in such cases.
These statutes have been so long
ignored that II will come as a distinct
surprise to many officers who have
not known It was theiT. duty to report
violations OF law. Thousands of no.
taries public in the State. including
many women. have not had the slight
3st idea OF the duties evolving on them
20 see that the law Is enforced. There
seems to be almost no public officer
who has not duty to perform. and
Is liable 20 lose his position IL 1t Isl
proven that he has failed

Main Street. during the summer. Mr..
Serns SAYS he is much pleased with
Richmond: its charming bouievards,
delightful suburbs, and clean streets
are an example worthy of Imitation
elsewhere
Besides his talented wife the evan
workers He will deal from night to
night Except Sunday very largely
with the great prophecies OF the BIZ
bic. In interviewing him. he said;
The current notion that the twin
books Daniel and the Revelation are
sealed is a mistaken idea. The seal
is broken. Present-day movements
can be read from their pages as news
items"
The necessity OF bodily resurrec-
ton was the theme last night at the
institute The speaker said In part;
The hope Of the Christian church,
tho hope of every wailing widow and
orphan and child Is the resurrection.
The popular belief in inherent immor-
taltty has wrought untold mischief TO
the human race, being responsible for
the backward condition of the great
empires China and India. They are
miilenniums behind in the march OF
civilization. The vain superstitiona
ana reverent regard for the dead. the
habitat Of the soul have made for
eign mission fields out OF these heath
en- nations"
