AMENDMENTS / N z

Mrs. J. E. Bray, in her address before the Wnson-Marshal club
Tuesday evening, called attention to the importance of the two amend
ments % the state constitution to be voted o November 9TH.
No. is for the purpose of permitting the investment of the perma-
lei school fund In approved farm loan bonds. A vote of eyes" on this
amendment will ear a higher rat of interest o N invested school funds
and, therefore, more money for the schools. and at the san time helping
to develop the agricultural resources of the state.
No.2 is an amendment permitting the state to be bonded for per
cent of the assessed valuation of the property in the state as shown by
the last assessment roll, instead OF 100000 as is now the limit.
Congress recently appropriated several millions of dollars for good
roads work throughout the United States-but with this proviso-each
state must raise a sum equal to the amount given by the government
to that state. California and the Lincoln Highway association stand ready
to donate thousands of dollars for that portion of the great transcontin-
entail highway crossing Nevada, but they also expect Nevada to dol her
share.
Unless the second amendment passes W e cannot accept the help of
either the government or the Lincoln Highway association.
If you realize what good roads mean to the future development and
prosperity of Nevada you will vote yes n Amendment No. /.
If you are interested in the schools of the state and the development
of the state along agricultural lines you will vote Eyes on Amendment
No. l.

The favorable balance of $2,136OOOOO is just about double that of
the previous year under war conditions and almost three and a aaf
times the highest record before the war. \
These are staggering totals. They ire conceded on every side to
reflect an American prosperity which is beyond all precedent. II. as

WHERE THE VOTE BELONGS

Has the Utopian dream OF the publication OF things political by ex-
tending the right of suffrage to women vanished in thin air? Can their
votes be tied up in a parcel and be delivered to any n political party
by a few would-be leaders? If the Martin idea is the paramount issue,
cast your vote with the Prohibition or Socialist parties. If not, vote for
the candidates of the Democratic party-the party which has accom-
plished more for advancement of humanity in the last three and a half
years than the Republican party did in forty years of power.

FURMAN PRAISES
PA. EMPLOYERS
Have Co-operated For Enforce
ment of Compensation Law
as Nowhere Else

Pennsylvania employers have ac-
cepted the spirit as we'll as the letter
of the workmen's compensation law"
PauI N. Furman, chief of the Bureau
or Statistics of the Department of
I.apor and Industry. told members of
the Harrisburg Rotary Club, whose
guest he was at luncheon to-day.
In no other State where compen-
sation laws have been adopted" he
continued, has there been such gen.
eral and so hearty cooperation by
employers. Some of the largest of
them go even beyond the requirements
OF the act in either the payment of
doctors bills or damages"
Mr.. Furman said one of the objects
OF the compensation act was to reduce
industrial accidents and he believed
that both employees and employers are
working to that end.
During the luncheon A. e. Buchanan,
speaking for the Chamber of Com
merce, asked for the cooperation of
the Rotary Club in preparation for the
Halloween festival and the president
was authorized to appoint a committee
for that purpose.
