COL YER LOSES IN
COURT OF APPEALS

A dispatch from Frankfort in the
morning papers said: The act Of the
Legislature creating the Office of
superintendent of insurance rating
was held to be valid Friday by the
Court of Appeals. The court com
strued the act by deciding the case of
the State Insurance Board against r.
l.. Greene, auditor and II. II. Coyler,
member of the State Rating Boards
against N. o. Gray, superintendent Of
insurance board and provided for the
appointment of superintendent of
insurance rating. Conceiving the act
to be invalid. C. F. Thomas, insur-
ance commissioner and Coyler, a
member of the board, filed suit to
restrain auditor Greene from appoint
ing a superintendent of rating. The
lower court construed the act to be
valid and N. O. Gray, who was at the
time a member Of the insurance
board, was appointed superintendent
of insurance rates. Coyler then sued
Gray to restrain him from perform.
ing his duties as superintendent Of IN
surance rating and the two cases wers
consolidated and taken to the Cour,
of Appeals. The court holds that
there is sufficient clearness IN the ac'
to abolish the State Insurance Boart
and the officers of secretary and at
tonty and declines to pass on thu
other questions in the case.

HIGH SCHOOL PLAY
DELIGHTS EVERYONE

Eleven seniors of the Caldwell
High School played to a crowded
house last night, when they gave
their play, Standing By" The
story was full of pathos with just
enough humor which was fur
nished by Aunt Polly, black face
and tender of heart, to make the
whole play intensely interesting
from the very start Mary Bron-
ston, who played the role of Aunt
Polly, completely won the sympa-
thy and admiration of the audi
ence by her devotion and un-
swerving loyalty to her master,
Mr.. Carey. The part of Mr.. Ca
rey was taken by Walker McKin-
ney, who was most able substi-
tute for Leon Elder, the latter
being unable to be present
Mary Alice Tudor, as the wife
of Mr.. Carey, and the designing
mother who tried in vain to mar
ry their daughter, Ethelind to a
millionaire, took her part with the
ease and grace of a professional
player. Stella Ramsey as Ethe-
lind, showed real dramatic ART
when she dehed her mother ano
overcame all obstacles which kept
her from her soldier lover whom
she had promised to marry on hi:
return from overseas. 1t is regret.
ted there is not space to- speal
of each character, SO perfectly die
each take the part assigned. Rich.
mond should indeed congratulate,
herself on having such remarka
BILE talent, and much credit is du'
to Prof. Bridges. who so ably
coached the play.

HIGHER PHONE
RATES NOW ON
Injunction In Favor Of City Is
Dissolved By Judge Shackel-
Ford After Big Courts Act

The United States Supreme
Court and the Kentucky Court OF
Appeals, having dissolved other
injunctions sought to prevent in
creased telephone rates, Judge
Shackelford on Friday dissolved
the injunction he had granted
during the recent term of circuit
court upon motion of the city of
Richmond, seeking to prevent
phone rate raises here. A formal
order was entered by Judge
Shackelford, citing the action of
the two higher courts. He made
a notation, however, that the in
junction is set aside with the
right to the plaintiff, the city of
Richmond, to make motion to
have it reinstated at any time it
may see proper.
Thus ends legal steps for the
present, in the local courts to pre-
vent the increased telephone rates
for the city patrons. The new
rates have gone into effect this
month and next bills sent to tele-
phone subscribers will be on the
basis of $3.75 per month for bus
mess phones and 500 for resi-
dences. Many phone subscribers
are saying that if Richmond must
pay these rates, she should have
the central energy system by
which ringing of the bell to call
central is unnecessary. Dan
vile, Winchester, and many other
towns the size of Richmond have
this Improvement, and are paying
the same rate as Richmond. 1t
is understood that the telephone
management will soon make a
proposition to the officials of
Richmond covering installation of
this system and other improve
ments, and it is being eagerly
awaited, and will be scanned with
interest.

SAYS HUNS
|. CAN'T PAY and WONT
(By Associated Press)

London, June -Dr. Bernard
Dernburg, German minister OF n
nance, in a Berlin interview in
sists upon Germany's inability to
meet the financial demands of the
peace terms. He said Germany
cannot pay and the entente can
not make Germany pay. You can
invade Germany and occupy and
raid its banks and nobody will
stand in your way if you wish to
come to Berlin. But when you
are there, what are you going to
do? Your only hope of reparation
lies in getting the German people
to work, producing goods which
they can give the allies against a
money indemnity but they first
must have the raw materials rea-
sonably soon. You do not sup
pose our children are going to re-
main slaves because their parents
lost the war"

SPLENDID CHANCE
TO GET HUN CANNON

If Senator J. c. w. Beckham
can possibly secure it, Richmond
will obtain one of the captured
German cannon to ornament the
court house yard. A long petition
was forwarded to Senator Beck
ham by Mrs. Jonah Wagers a
shot time ago, requesting that he
use his best efforts toward that
end, and Senator Beckham has
written that he will do all in his
power. In a letter to the editor
of the Daily Register regarding
the matter, Senator Beckham
says:
Hon. Shelton M. Saufley,
Richmond, KY.
Dear Shelton:
| have your note of May 10Th,
expressing your personal interest
in seeing Richmond secure one of
the captured German cannon to
be placed in the court house yard
there, and it is hardly necessary
to tell you that it will give me
pleasure to be of any assistance
possible in the matter.
l have taken the matter up with
the War Department, and urged
in the strongest terms possible
that Richmond be given one of
these cannon. I hope it may be
done, and I shall gladly do what
/ can to aid in it.
Very sincerely yours, =
J. c. w. BECKTIAM.

JACK PHELPS GOES
AS RAIDInC DEPUTY

Jack Phelps, who recently re-
turned from fighting overseas,
has just been appointed U. S.
Deputy Internal Revenue Collec-
tor. He has already gone to work
again for Uncle Sam. Mr.. Phelps
is what is known as a "raiding
deputy" which means that he
will have lot Of raiding to do in
the mountains, hunting out the
festive moonshiner, and the illicit
booze that he is making and will
probably make on a more extern
sive scale than ever before after
the first of July. This raiding
business has gotten to be rather
risky at times, for the Sinners
have a disagreeable way of hiding
behind stumps and bushes and
taking shot at anyone they
think is trying to interfere with
their business. To a man who has
been over No Mans Land after
the pesky Hun, this will seem but
child's play, however, and Mr..
Phelps many friends at home are
satisfied that he will more than
make good. 1t is understood that
his headquarters will be at Co.
lumbia, in Adair county, out of
which he will work over 16 coun-
ties with Deputy Charley Win
frey, one of the old heads at the
game, and one of the very best
men in Uncle Sans Service.
