SILVIS REGISTRAR
REFUSED TO SERVE
WHEN APPOINTED

People Of Silvis are very indig-
nant over the action Of the appoint
ed registrar in his refusal to serve
in such a capacity on registration
day, according TO an open letter
from Fred 0. Hartline. president of
the Silvis village board of trustees.
Mr.. Maritime writes:
Editor Argus: l notice that Mr.
Dumbeck has made the assertion
that he opened his office on the
morning of Sept. y and registered
% men. This is not true. The men
registered by Mr.. Dumbeck were
registered on or before Sept. II at
his office. the day before the time
set. He also stated that the village
officials ordered to close his office
and go to the village hall. This also
is not true, as the village officials
were not in charge Of the registra-
ton and were not giving any orders.
"A large number of men went to
Mr.. Dumbeck's office on the morn
ing Of Sept, 70 as they understood
that it was the place to register,
and were informed by Mr.. Dumbeck
that he had nothing to do with reg
even in face of the fact
that he had been duly sworn as the
chief registrar of the Silvis pre-
cinCt
1t became necessary for citizens
Of Silvis to go to East Moline and
get George D. Long, chairman of
the East Moline registration dis
trict, to come and round up enough
men to man the board at Silvis,
which was done without much trOu-
BILE. but the opening Of the Silvis
registration was delayed until 8 or
9:15 O'Clock.
If Mr. Dumbeck had been the
man that he should have been he
would have complied with the re-
quest Of the heads of the registra-
ton board. and gone to the legally
assigned place. the village hall
The people of Silvis are very in
at the actions of Mr.. Dunn
beck. and are asking that he be
made to explain why he did not do
as he was requested to.
Since his action of Sept. -, the
men on Mr. Dumbeck's bond as JUS
tiCe of the peace have withdrawn,
and up to the present date Mr.. Dunn
beck has not been able to secure
new bondsmen.

MANY FORCED TO
LEAVE CITY FOR
LACK OF HOUSES

Demands for houses. apartments
and light housekeeping rooms in
Moline are unable to be met, &C
cording to the report forwarded to
Washington by Mrs. E. Kennedy, in
charge Of the United States home
registration bureau here.
Mrs. Kennedy declares that
scores Of men who have come here
to work have been forced to leave
because of lack of housing accom-
mOdatiOus. Mrs. Kennedy asserted,
We have secured the city in an
automobile in an attempt to find
houses for two expert mechanics
who had been employed by an East
Moline factory. Our efforts were
unavailing. The result was that
the men returned to their homes
in other cities"
Another appeal is made to those
who have rooms for light house
keeping, a vacant house or apart
ment, to Immediately inform the
registration Office in the lobby of
the Peoples Savings Bank and
Trust company. Sleeping rooms for
rental are numerous, according to
Mrs. Kennedy.

ers of the alleged blind pigs raided

Four policemen entered the home

around the table indulging in what
is said to be whisky. Two quart
bottles of what is alleged to have
been whisky were on the table at
the time. After search of the res
idence bottles of beef and whisky
and empty bottles of the same vari-
ETY. were found. Huyvaert lives at

Minck was present at their resi-
deaces when the raids were made,
but sufficient evidence to convict
both are assured.
This is the second time that Huy-
vaert's place has been entered by
