STRIKE AIDS HIGHWAYS
Ban on Cars for Material on Tonight,
State Hears.
There is some balm in Gillead.

There is some balm in Gillead.
The coal strike will provide cars for
the movement of material for high
way construction. Late this afternoon
the state highway commission re-
ceived notice that the embargo on
open top cars will be lifted tonight
OF course a coal famine may tie up
transportation. But until that time
materials for road construction may
move without federal interference.
Highway construction work in Kansas
has been practically at a standstill as
a result of the government embargo
on open top cars. With coal cars re-
leased for general use, it is the belief
of officials in the state highway COM
mission offices that facilities will be
provided for immediate movement of
materials sufficient to continue high
way building.

PARTY A BIG ONE
Four Hundred Shriners Hold Rescr-
vatlons Wednesday Nights Affair.

Approximately 400 Shriners and
their ladies have already obtained
reservations for the big party to be
given Wednesday evening by the To-
peka Abdallah Shrine club. The total
attendance is expected to exceed 500,
according to Theodore Meuller, secre-
tary.
The Shriners will attend the first
performance at the Novelty and then
parade to the Elks' club, where dane
ing and a buffet luncheon will follow.
A ladies' quartet was engaged to give
several vocal selections
Shriners' widows and their escorts,
as well as any visiting mobiles who may
be in the city at the time, are cordial
ly invited to attend the party. 1t is
requested that the secretary be noti-
fled as early as possible in order that
proper reservations may be made
AS no one ever knows what bunch
of Shriners may do when they get to-
gether, so no one knows what may
happen that isn't on the regular pro-
gram. Every Shriner should wear his
| fez on this occasion. 1t will be his
| passport"

RIGBY BLAMES NEGROES
They Didn't Know Soda Water Tanks
Were Not Fire ExtinguisIlers.

Negro porters who didn't know the
difference between a soda water tank
and a fire extinguisher were blamed
by Harper Rigby today for bringing
him before Judge Rad NJ. Lee in the
court of Topeka for failure to place
fire eXtinguishers in his pool hall, 612
Kansas avenue. Rigby explained to
the court that following a fire in the
pool hall several months ago he
ordered negroes to clean up the place
and they took the fire extinguishers
and placed them in a pile of debris in
the basement. Judge Lee fined Rigby
$40 and costs.
