PLAN FOR TRAFFIC
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE

CoNIINUED FROM PAGE ONE,
named recently a committee to study
the highways problem, with Roy d.
Chaplin. as chairman. The great
systems of waterways as yet have
practically no consideration as a big
FACTOR in transportation.
At the capitol there is a growing
sentiment that the water systems be
utilized and developed. Senator New
lands. chairman of the Interstate
Commerce Committee, has a bill for
the extensive improvement of the
waterways.
May Name Chambers.
Fairfax Harrison, chairman of the
board. said that because the govern
ment had not seen its way to grant
requests for priority by the roads,
the carriers now are 1000 locomo-
tives short that would have been
finished If their urging had been
needed.
Mr.. Harrison said that heretofore
the Federal priorities had defeated
themselves, but relief was in sight,
through an official assurance of the
naming of a Federal Trafic Man.
ager who would centralize all orders
for preference shipments. 1t was
thought the American War Council
would name Edward F. Chambers,
now traffic manager for the Food
Administration, and vice president
of the Santa Fe Railroad. The Fed
eral Traffic Manager would order only
preference in shipments and priori-
ties would be decided. as now, by
Judge Lovett.

THE PRICE OF SILENCE"

At the Star Theatre next Tuesday
and Wednesday, January % and "a,
the public will be given an opportunity
to see one of the most instructive
and deeply interesting picture plays
Of the day.
Two generations ago rivers of blood
and billions Of treasure were given
to lift the yoke of bondage from mil
lions of negro slaves-men, women
and children. Today the hideous con-
dition of slavery is again rooted in
the land. A condition of wage slav-
ery, serfdom, has taken the place of
chattel slavery and its victims are
more miserable, and particularly hard
is the burden upon children. More
than $4,000 children between the
ages of 10 and 13 years are wearing
their young lives away to enrich the
heartless plutocracy; more than l.
100000 children between 10 and Is
years of age are going to their daily
grind and giving their lives to fill
the Golfers of the noartiess manu-
facturers Of the things we eat and
wear.
Another wave of revulsion has COM
menced to roll in upon the votaries
Of the greedy god Mammon, and the
lovers of humanity and justice must
lend their aid to sweep them from
the face Of the earth.
THE Price of Silence" is a great
educational photodrama, produced by
VIM. Fox, who presents the great
actor William Farnum in this great
play, showing with tear-compelling
truth the infamy Of Mammon. 1t
shows the black shamelessness of
misbegotten greed.
See this great photodrama at the
Star next Tuesday and Wednesday
and you will be well entertained and
instructed.

RATE GU I WILL
COST $4,000.
Will Have To Spend Much
To Reduce Insurance
Price. 3

It will take approximately $4,000
|or $4,000 in excess OF the amount
stated yesterday to get the reduction
in the fire insurance rate for Ottum-
wa that is sought by the Commercial
club and the local business men. The
inability to get the figures yesterday
on the cost of the required improve
ments for the water works consisting
of larger mains and more hydrants,
prevented giving the total cost OF ad-
ded fire hghting facilities when the re-
port from the rating bureau was pub
lished.
Superintendent H. A. Brown Of the
water works says that based on pres
ent market prices of iron pipe, the
cost of the improvements called for
by the insurance survey will approx
mate $4,000. The cost OF this fire
equipment needed in addition to the
present supply and the seven addition.
al fireman's annual salaries will aggre-
gate $4,000, $500 being for salaries
and $20,500 for equipment.
The reduction from fourth to third
class will make an approximate re
duction OF II per cent OF $4,000 for
the estimated amount of premiums
paid here annually is 100000 The
reduction will pay the added cost in
three years.
MUST RAISE VALUATIONS.
"If the business men are willing to
allow the council to raise the valua.
tion OF down town property high
enough to take care of the additional
salaries IL will be all right. The general
fund can not stand the expenditure of
$500 annually and the millage is as
high now as it can be placed" said
Mr. Menefee.
"The equipment needed can be pur.
chased as easily as arrangements can
be made to pay for it, but money must
be, on hand for the salaries"
MONEY NOT AVAILABLE.
Mr.. Brown said today that the i'm
proyements suggested by the survey
while not actually underway, have
been favorably passed upon by the
water works board and would have
been put in before this II the money
was available. However. the board is
about to construct a wheel house and
dam which will take some $4,000 and
consume all available funds this year.
AWAIT THE MACHINERY.
The construction Of the new wheel
house has been purposely delayed as
to the building proper until the ma
chinery arrives Word was received
today that the machinery is progress
ing favorably and should be shipped
on time. This will probably mean the
starting of the work by the last OF
August or the first Of September.
Gravel is being accumulated for the
concrete work to be used In the new
dam and it is expected that the first
part of next month will see the pre-
liminary work of building the dam
started. Once begun, shifts will be
employed night and day to get the
concrete in and the job completed
soon
