Celvership is complete We are ready to

lutely confident as 10 results" said william
NJ. HarEest Deputy Attorney General. who,
with Horace w. Davis. will appear for the
State in both cases MIR. Hurgcst will have
charge OF the Pension Mutual application
and Mr.. Davis will look after tho Union
Casualty case IN court.
The State expects the Union officials to
ask for continuance OF this cnse, but
Messrs. Davis and largest are prepared to
fight any such move.
The first indication OF such n step came
this week. when Commissioner O'SeIl re-
coived work from the company that It's
counsel had been greatly hampered by the
condition in which the state insurance eX-
amincrs had left tho records. IL was charged
that letters and files had been mixed and
changes and measures and cTasurCs made.
O'Neii and his examiners are ready to take

ARMOUR MAKES WoMEN'S WORK
SAFE-HE HAD TO
A deputy inspector from State,Fac-
tory Inspector Oscar Nelson's Office
walked into the tin shop of Armour
& Co. at the stock yards today.
You're still making those tin
tanks" remarked the inspector to
one of the workers. "a week ago
the whole blamed shop was doing
rush work on them. What are they
anyway, munition parts? Is this
peaceful pig stickery going to become
a shrapnel factory"
Nothing of the kind, rejoined the
worker. Armour can make more
coin selling meat to armies than he
could in making ammunition. These
tanks as you call them, have no war
like mission in life. They are only
hoods for soldering watts and emery
wheels. This tin shop got orders to
drop all other work and make hoods
right after The Day Book printed that
story"
THAT story" as the tinworker
called it, was the story in The Day
Book which told of conditions Oscar
Nelson's inspectors found in the Ar
mour plant before three of Armour's
foremen were heavily fined a few
weeks ago for disObeying state safety
laws.
Women and girls toiIed over SOL
dering watts on which there were
neither hoods or air suction system
demanded by law to protect them
from the poisonous lead fumes so in
furious to health.

POLICE UNDERMINING CAUSE
OF STANDARD OIL STRIKERS
Bayonne, N. j., Oct. IA. - Con-
WINGED they have broken strike Of
several thousand oil workers, in
which three persons have been killed
and scores injured, BayOnne officials
today planned to turn workers back
to their tasks through an entirely
new departure in handling of such
situations. A monster meeting of
strikers was called for this morning
by Com'r of Public Safety Henry
Wilson.
Wilson planned to address strik-
ers on big open plain known as ''the
fats" to tell them strike is broken
and that he has promise of compa-
MES that all will be given back their
places.
The plan admittedly was an exper-
iment, and despite claim that police
authority now prevails following gun
battles that accompanied rioting and
looting, every available policeman
was on the job armed with rifle or
drawn automatics when the work
ers started for ''the flats" in the
heart of the strike zone.
A comparatively quiet night gave
officials further hope today that the
police have thoroughly cowed riot
ers by the almost incessant raids
they have been making for the past
three DAYS on houses of Workmen
suspected. having arms and am
munition. This search will continue
tonight and Sunday. By Monday,
when big plants of the Standard Oil
open, officials must have completely
eliminated any chance for such fatal
disorders as marked course Of strike
up to yesterday.

in a few weeks they should be in
good condition The roads are hard
surfaced. Several hundred thousand
dollars have been spent and $4,000
provided for a bridge across the St
Lucie river at Stuart, and the main
line road, which is expected to be
completed during the present year.
The right-of-way averages about 80
feet, and hard-surfacing viii sbe 16
feet.
Some work has been done to
beautify the Palm Beach county roads
but there has been no systematic
plan adopted; but the West Palm
Beach board of trade and civic organ
nations of the county have committed
themselves to a policy of beautifica-
ton and requested the county com
missioners to secure a right-of-way
of at least 80 feet.
'Broward county's clerk neglected
to report, but it is known that the
roads and bridges are in fairly good
condition and plans are being con
sidered for their improvement. Nine
miles of the main road is to be re
built with money provided by. the re
cent bond issue sold by Palm Beach
county, from a part of which Brow

urge all civic bodies composing the
organization to pass suitable resolu-
lions to this end.
"A further recommendation urged
that all affiliated civic societies adopt
definite policy or highway beautifi-
cation and devise ways and means for
its execution, the work already done
in Dade and St Johns counties being
pointed to as notable examples of
what can be accomplished. The sug-
gestion was made that schools and
women's clubs be interested Shad-
ing was declared to be necessary to
the economical maintenance of roads.
at was declared that the European
custom of planting fruit trees along
the roadside, while an attractive plan,
would be impracticable under existing
conditions of law enforcement, as
vanGals would probably rob the trees,
or decaying fruit pollute the road
side.
The legislature of the state should
be requested to designate a holiday
TO be known as highway beautifica
ton day which should be observed
| throughout the state to create a sen
timent favorable to better roads and
more beautiful roadsides, was an
other recommendation.

"Dade county and St. Johns coun-
" roads were declared to be the best
on the East Coast as reported to the
committee. The committee com
mented on the excellent condition Of
the Dade county roads and the beau
tiful Australian pines bordering the
main highway from one end to the
other.
While the entire highway from
Jacksonville to Miami is passable for
automobiles, and part of it is as
fine a roadway as can be found in
America, it is to be deplored that
the entire distance is not up to the
standard, or average automobile road
in the Northern or Western states,
Mr. Kishpaugh continued.
John D. Baker, of Jacksonville
representing that city's chamber OF
commerce, deplored the failure OF the
clerk to make a report, and added
that the condition of Duval county's
roads was on the whole excellent, ex

been placed so as to show the curves,
tributary roads, distances and mile
