CLINTON HILL IS
STILL FIRM FOR
MEMORIAL SITE
Objections BY Two Members of
Improvement Association
Are Merely Personal.

+ Theodore S. Fettinger, president Of
the Clinton Hill Improvement Asso-
citation, said today that Frederick \.
Fisher and DR.. William Buermann
spoke for themselves, and not for the
Clinton Killers yesterday at the meet
ing in the Board of Trade rooms.
where abandonment of the memorial
building project was urged.
The Clinton Hill Improvement AS
sociation has approved the Lincoln
Park site for the building, and never
has considered further action, he said,
nor has the association yet become Il
member of the Federation of I'm
provement Associations The matter
of abandoning the memorial building
project was taken up yesterday at a
meeting purporting to be preliminary
to organizing the federation. and Mr.
Fettinger says they were putting the
cart before the horse.
Not a Member.
so far as ! know" said Mr.. Fet-
finger, 'the Clinton Hill Improve
ment Association is not yet a MEM
ber of any federation of Improvement
associations. At our December meet
ing we authorized DR. William Buer-
mann. chairman of our federation
committee, to attend the preliminary
meetings looking to a federation and
learn the purpose of such federation.
AT later meeting of the board of
governors of the association DIR. Buer-
mann reported on the federation
proposition, stating that he had at
tended the meeting and heard the
views of various representatives, and
gave it is his own view that a per-
manent organization was hardly nee
essary, because the associations could
federate to act on any important
question that might come up.
No permanent federation org9niz-
alton has as yet been formed, and the
temporary body is one responsible to
or for no body but itself. Whatever
action the representatives may take
cannot be binding upon the organiza-
tions whom they represent at these
meetings preliminary to a permanent
organization.
when DR.. Buermann reports back
to us on n proposition to form a
permanent organization and the pro-
posed dues and the purposes of the
Federation, our association will no
doubt take action one way or the 9TH
er on the proposition, and the chair
man of oar federation committee will
likely continue TO be our representa-
tive in the federation body. If we de-
eide to sanction membership in the
federation.
As It is, the representatives at the
federation meeting have put the cart
before the horse in acting upon a
question and going on record before
their associations have even discussed
-Aaa matter"

JEFFERSON HI(H-
 WAY ASSURED
AShdOwn Is On the Route of the Pro. posed Highway; Two Routes ire
 Being Considered.

A representative of the Jefferson Highway proposition was in this city short time ago talking with local people and trying to interest theit in the project The most direct route and the nest favored is the one lying along the Kansas City Southern from Fort Smith to Shreveport Securing road over this route will depend large ly upon the efforts of the towns along. the route. Hope is on the ether part of the route, and the most indirect, our effort to secure the road and that will weigh largely when the time for decision comes. Texarkana is sure of being on the line in either case. That puts it up to the smaller cities to get busy
 On the othter hand Ashdown and Little River county have very sub stantial argument in the fact that we! have just completed IS miles of mod ern pike exactly where the Jefferson highway would run if it comes this way Nine miles to Ogden, nine miles to Pine Prairie. They can take either route they like best or both. In addi- tion to that it is proposed to form dis tricts and build roads entirely through the country north and south and con- meeting up with the one already built. All the Jefferson highway would de- mand of us has already been antici- pated and will likely be done anyway. If any county can show more cr even as much that looks like business, then we should beat them on the point of the shorter route While the others can talk and boost We are in g position to show 'em. We must remember that even our having the goods may fail if we fail to advertise them and show them. There is going to De some thing doing. Let's keep awake and get in on it.

Two Routes to Texarkana.

TeXarkana, Jan. 23.-Blueprints of the Jefferson highway have been re- ceived by the Tekarkana Board oi Trade, and Secretary Quinn expects within few days tc' call all of the persons interested in this project to- Gether in meeting for consideration of the proposed link of the highway which includes Texarkana and which will be built from Joplin. Mo, to Shreveport, La.
 There are two routes mapped cut of TeXarkana, to Waldron. Ark. one of which includes the towns of Mena. DeQueen. Ashdown and Ogden, anc the other including the towns of Fultcn. Hope, Washington, Murfrees- bore. Womble and Mount Ida.
 Both of these proposed routes out of Tevarkana are considered of suf- ticient importance to cause local peo- pie 70 feel that whichever route Is selected the ether should be laid out in a lateral to the main highway and thus both sections of country incor- rorated under the highway proper.
 Just when the meeting will be call ed MT. Quinn was not prepared to state yesterday. but 1t will be within the next few days.
