MAKE 1T BOULEVARD
Residents OF The Drive Would Have
TrafIic Restricted.

Following the proposal to pass an
ordinance making Topeka avenue a
boulevard. agitation has been started
to make other streets of the city bouIe-
wards. Some of the residents of The
Drive are now anxious to get in on the
street beautiful movement.
Lying west Of Potwin. The Drive
has recently been paved with asphalt
making 1t in every respect the equal
to Topeka avenue. The natural layout
of The Drive with its beautiful curv-
ing lines winding in and out thru that
section of the city to the northwest
toward the waterworks. makes it one
of the most highly desirable streets in
the city of Topeka for making another
boulevard There is no other street in
Topeka with more attractive features
than The Drive as an addition to the
contemplated boulevard system.
No petition is being circulated at
present. However. there has been
some talk among residents of The
Drive Of getting into the new move
ment early and being the second street
in Topeka to be made into a boule-
ard.

Fighting Trim.
URGE CONSTRUCTION RUSHED

Washington, May 2s.-Unanimous
decision has been reached by the naval
general board and the leading officers
of the navy who were in command
construction of battl> ships ami battle
cruisers rather than to adopt a COM
posite ship embodying the essentials
of the tive types.
This was disclosed today with the
presentation of the general boards
report by Secretary Daniels to the
house naval committee. The board
urged that the ten battleships and the
six battle cruisers authorized in 191 S
be completed as expeditiously as pos
slble with changes in the plans of the
battle cruisers to afford greater pro-
lection at the cost of a slight reduc-
ton IN the designed speed of s5 knots
an hour
The boards communication follows:
The general board and this confer
ence recommends that the present
thorized battleship program be com
pleted as expeditiOusly possible
present lines of development and that
future designs of battleships should de-
pend upon further Developments in
battleship CONSTRUCTION.
The general board and this confer.
ence recommends to the secretary OF !.
the navy that the six cruisers now
authorized be completed as expedid-
ously as possible. but with additional
protection particularly TO turrets. con-
ming towers. magazines and communi-
cations at the expense of a small reduc-
ton in speed.
Sixteen first class battIeships will
be kept in fun fighting trim during
the next fiscal year. Rear Admiral
Mexican. acting chief of operations
told the committee.
This is an increase of one ship over
the war strength as the new battle
ship. the Tennessee will soon be ready
for commissioning in the first line.
Mexican asked for provision for 20
SS6 men as complement for the six
teen ships, this being full wal
strength.
Plans OF the navy are to equally di-
vide the sixteen first line ships be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific fleets
which are to be made of equal
strength

Haven Fights.

New Haven. May 2s.-The riot
which kept this city in an uproar
most of last night was attributed to-
day by Mayor Fitzgerald to "Bolshe-
vik element" which had taken ad-
vantage of minor clash between dis
charged service men and Yale under
ports that Yale men had Kissed the
1920 regiment band.
Thruout the night the college au-
thorities had complete control over
the students, keeping them within the
dormitories.
Those students who figured in
fights were such as were caught upon
the streets by the mobs while return
ing from theaters or dances.
The police reports showed five
young men hurt. two by bullets. none

TO.SaUe Girl From
Being Cut To Death

That he loaned an automatic rifle to
w. b. Schultz on the night Of Aug. 10
with the sole idea Of saving a defense-
less women from being cut to death by
Maihue Jones was the statement of
Capt. Frayser Hinton for whom a war
rant was sworn out Friday before John
j. Mcnamara, magistrate, charging him
with being accessory to the killing of
Jones by Schultz.
Capt. Hinton made bond OF IS, 1000 for
appearance before the criminal court.
The bond was signed by J. T., Hinton
and John j.. Collins, Schultz was exon
Grated by a %coroner's jury, which de-
clared the killing justifiable homicide.
The warrant was sworn out Friday by
w. e. Jones, Of Oklahoma, father of
the dead man.
According to Capt. Hinton's state
ment and according to the testimony ad-
duced at the inquest, Schultz and a
young woman, Mamie Hooper, were In
a restaurant at the corner OF Union
avenue and Third street on the night of
Aug. 10, when Maihue Jones and m
other man apparently under the influ-
ence OF liquor or drugs came in. Jones
ID said to have started abusing both
Schultz and, the girl. Jealousy Is said
to have been the motive.
When Mr.. Hinton saw the danger to
the girl from his undertaking establish
ment across the street. and when
Schultz came across the street and ap-
pealed for aid In ending the attack on
the d~efenseless woman, Capt Hinton
SAYS he loaned him the rifle with the
single idea that schultz, by a show Of
force, would be able to subdue the en-
ragged man threatening the life Of the
girl,
George Mulligan, automobile me-
chanic, South Third street, and Doc"
Richardson, employed at Bender's
garage nearby, were among the wit
MAsses, and both declare that Capt.
Hinton did what any other right minded
man would have done under similar
circumstances.
Frayser Hinton is the junior member
OF the undertaking firm OF J.. T. Hinton
q Son. He recently returned from over
| seas, where. he commanded o company
in the Rainbow division. He Is extreme
iy popular socially and a favorlte with
former soldiers who served under him.
