to be used in road construction, and that it will take practically year to fill the order. This is regarded as significant, coming on the heels of the rumor that the United States government intends to construct highways through the south. It is a known fact that eight miles Of the highway, paralleling the artillery range camp at Aniston, will be built by Uncle Sam.
 The fact that five mobilization camps already designated by General Wood are directly on the line of the Bankhead highway, between Washington and Bir- mtngham-Spartanbu Greenville and Columbia, s. C., Anniston and Atlanta-it 'eems practical and logical that such a move might be anticipated by the govern ment For military purposes, no better route could seemingly be designated.
 Upon the return of the highway off, cials from Washington, President Flow man will cali meeting of the executive committee of the association for the pur- pose of naming an official date and an nouncing the itinerary of the pathfnders committee, which will definitely and per- manently locate the route of the Bank head highway.

"BLUE LAW" AGAIN FAILS.
Jury Fails to Convict Alleged Sabbath
Breakers at Iowa Falls,

Special 20 Times
Iowa Falls, June 2.-It did not take
a jury long to decide the blue law
case tried in this city Friday, and a
few moments after the evidence was
in the defendants were found not
guilty Of violating this much discussed
Iowa statute. Last Sunday the lid
blew off and ali the restaurants and
refreshment parlors opened as before
the Havner edict was proclaimed. To
test out the matter, c. A. Wartchow,
OF the Sweet Shop, and H. H. Turner,
OF the Turner cafe. were arrested, and
they demanded jury trial which was
held before Judge c. E. Gilchrist. Pub
lie sentiment seems to endorse the YER
dict and the restaurants and refresh
ment places will probably remain open
each Sunday unless other tactics are
taken to enforce the closing law. This
city has never had Sunday movies or
Sunday baseball so that the only point
involved seemed to be the one decided
in this instance.
