Washington, Jan. 26.-The Shack
elford good roads bill, carrying an
appropriation of S25, 100000 to aid the
states in improving their post roads,
was passed by the house late today,
28l to 81. Three members voted
present. "
States would share in the appropri-
alton on the basis of their population
and the number Of their post roads.
The money would be disbursed
through the various state highway
commissions.
Opponents of the measure insisted
that this proposed appropriation
would be only the forerunner to re-
quests for others of a similar nature.
Representatives from the larger cities
generally opposed the project on the
ground that the roads would not be a
general benefit, but would 90 to fav-
ored sections of rural districts.
1t was freely predicted that strong
opposition would be encountered in

SAVED KISS; WANTED $1,000

property owner, wherein the plaintiff
sought S., 600 damages on the ground
that Stuart attempted to kiss her.
Mrs. Gortz told the jury Stuart's
advances caused her to lose her rea-
son temporarily, and she further
charged she suffered great physical
discontinue.
Stuart, who is seventy-one, alleged
he had paid Mrs. Gortz Sl00 and that
she signed waiver of all damages
against him. The jury deliberated
several minutes and held that Stuart
had paid enough.

"Purify the Source" I"

"The State of Kentucky is going far
enough when it provides free schools
for children. Another set of schools
for adult illiterates would be an ex-
pensiye experiment for a State deeply
in debt. Solve the problem by let
ting the illiterates attend the regular
schools. "-Hopkinsville Kentuckian.
For obvious reasons adult litter
ates would not attend the regular
schools. 1t seems to be a matter of
no doubt, however, that the Legisla-
ture should hesitate about appropriat-
ing any large sum of money to estab-
lish other schools. The solution of
the whole matter, in our opinion, lies
in making the attendance Of children
at school reallycompulsory and keep
ing them at school long enough to re-
ceive some sort Of training worth
while. If the State takes care that
the crop of illiterates shall not be in
creased by accessions from the pres
ent generation of children, we believe
Kentucky will be doing about all that
can be reasonably required. Gym

German submarine U-53-17 days
out from NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
in Newport harbor this afternoon.
AT SAT- the war craft weighed an
| chor and sailed from the harbor.
Her mission, besides delivering
mail for Ambassador Bernstorff,
is not yet known.
The U.53, in command of Capt.
Hans Rose, appeared spick and
span upon her arrival. She looked
as if she had been out only for
maneuvers. Her commander re-
ported that he had not sighted
any hostile craft on his voyage
over, adding that the boat was
plentifully supplied with provis-
ions and fuel and that nothing
would be taken aboard here.
Shortly after the submersible
came in Commander Rose paid an
official call upon Rear Admiral
Austin M. Knight, commandant of
the Narragansett Bay naval sta
ton, to whom he stated that he
was preparing to leave port to-
night
The submarine anchored in the
outer harbor, two miles down the
bay. No one came ashore but
representative of the Associated
Press was allowed to go aboard
and learn the vessel s story. The
U-53 will go outside the harbor
for anchorage during the night.
The newspaperman who board
ed the submarine was asked to
take ashore a large batch of Of
ficial mail for Count Won Bern
storff, the German ambassador,
and this was forwarded this af-
ternoon. While not disposed to
discuss the details Of his voyage,
Commander Rose said chat he had
a sufficient supply Of food aboard
to last for three months.
Besides the commander, the
vessel carries four officers and 33
men. The U-53 was escorted in
the harbor by the United States
submarine DE-.
Commander Ross explained that
the submarine, which is a regular
war vessel and equipped with
had put in here only to
deliver official mail for the Ger
nan Ambassador. He declined to
'ay whether he had been ordered
