GOOD ROADS LEGISLATION.


INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 16.-Editor
The News-Times: Senate bill No.
152, the county unit bill. is undoubt-
eddy one Of the most important
measures now before the legislature.
This bill provides that the county
commissioners in every county Of the
state of Indiana shall decide on the
public utility Of roads: IL makes the
county a new unit for issuing bonds
it makes a limit Of four percent tax
on the total assessed valuation Of
the county. With the new tax bill,
which will undoubtedly pass and be-
come o law and which will require
cash valuation on property. will
double the total assessed valuation
Of every county in the state. With
the scanty safeguards and the ire
mendous amount Of money which
may be expended for roads under
to me that in it's present form IL is
very dangerous and it should be
amended.
Figure out how much your coun-
" can expend for roads under this
bill.
The bill should have amendments
which will in effect require the COM
missioners Of each county TO lay out
a system OF county roads TO be built
over q period TO be determined by
the board OF county commissioners
and that a special election shall be
had which will either approve or
disapprove the action of the county
commissioners and make it i'm
possible for the county commission
ers TO improve roads with hard sur
faces that have not received a ma
jority OF the votes of the county cleo
tors on the proposition.
The tremendous increase in the
cost OF everything, the demands from
all sides for more pay and the in
creasing number Of causes for the
expenditure Of the public's money
are going to make taxes high, and it
is necessary that the people should
be consulted in this matter.
The demand for new and better
roads was never so urgent as at the
present time, and if the amendments
above stipulated are incorporated in
this bill will help its passage, and
remove most of the opposition.
would deem IL an especial favor if
you would bring II before your read
ers and ask them to write their sena-
tor and representatives regarding this
important measure. A. II. b.

The Melting Pot
COMES TAKE POTLUCK
WITH Us

Mixed up with the general un-
pleasantness OF being confined in bed
for a couple OF days with what
everybody insisted was the flu. was
the happy experience Of finding out
just how good TO one the other mem
bers Of the family can be at times.
And having ones meals in bed is also
an experience that may be enjoyed
by others than young and frivolous
maidens.
DR.. Emil G. Freyermuth, secretary
or the city board OF healths is in
sisting that if the general assembly
increases his salary, he will need
more office space. The health Sec
rotary evidently believes that his du-
ties will increase along with his pay
check.
Witnesses in the case against Tony
Barrett in the city court evidently
are more interested in getting a
pension for themselves than they
are in forcing law violators to pay
the penalty of their transgressions.
AT least it looks that way whenever
Tony is implicated.
Mayor Carson is to have hit up on
successful way in which to avoid
saying the things he ought not to
say. The mayors plan of avoiding
being quoted officially is to remain
away from his office at the city hall.
Little John Warner lives over on
W. Division St. and although he is
only five years old, he already has a
we'll developed desire for everything
in the way of cake and cookies.
John has the happy faculty of
making friends with the neighbOrs,
especially the housewives who do
their own baking, and include cake
and cookies in the daily output
Among Johns friends is a lady
who makes excellent cake and cook
les. and just about the time the pro
ducts are ready to be taken from
the oven,-the tiny youngster is sure
TO appear on the kitchen scene.
The other day the lady Of the cul-
mary proficiency had just taken a
handsome, toothsome cake and a
painful of crisp cookies from the
oven. and was just placing them
on the table when she was fright
ened almost out of her wits by an
object running into her.
Almost overcome by fright, the
lady turned to perceive that the oh
ject was John. and still under the
influence of the fright she had just
received. she grabbed hold of the
youngster with the startling decla-
ration
why. John Warner" she said
I'm never going to give you another
piece Of cake as long as l live"
The boy looked at the angry and
frightened lady unabashed. and with
the sweetest smile imaginable he
asked,
That doesn't mean cookies too,
does it,"
That was too much for the lady
so John left with big piece of cake
in one chubby fist and a handful OF
cookies in the other.

DEGNAN GIRLS
 MOTHER THOUGHT
 WELL OF BRADLEY

The testimony of Howard J. Brad ley, of S5 Gem avenue, that he had known Miss Anna Degnan only about a month before they took the fatal automobile ride last Monday night was corroborated this morning by Mrs. Eliza Dcgnan, mother of the dead girl, who appeared before the coroner. It had previously been re- ported that members of the family said Bradley had known the girl for two years.
 Mrs. Degnan testified that her daughter told her a short time ago that she and Bradley intended to be married the latter part Of this month. They intended to keep the fact secret, however, because they did not have money enough to 20 housekeeping and the girl meant to continue work ing
 Mrs. Degnan said her daughter met Bradley at Walnut Beach. where the girl was spending her vacation. The mother declared she liked Bradley and had confidence in him because her daughter trusted him. No find ing will be made by the coroner un- til next week.

 It was reported this morning that the police had located the missing Packard automobile in a local garage. Detectives who are working on the case refused to discuss this phase of the matter, however, and no further definite information could be secured.
 Conflicting reports as to whether Kauvar and the Kline woman have been released from custody were nu- merous this morning. Chief Maher of the Milford police refused to confirm or deny any Of the rumors. He re- ferrrcd all questions to Coroner Mix. The coroner is keeping mum, how ever, and his tactics are being fol- lowed out by every official who is in vestigating the affair. The conference which was held this morning may re- suit in further arrests in the near fu- r1lrc.

GEVALERA BITTER 0M SUSPENSION
 OF PARLIAMENT

Providence. R. l.. Sept. 13----At ui1- night 11st night EGmonn de Valera issued tho following statement con corning tl suspension Of the Sim F'ein Parliament:
 As ! stated Wednesday, the proc -qwotfC0s are simply to provide 9 cover for military ruthlessness in Ire land. The war front is now tIans- rarred to Ireland. where the one-ume Commander in Chief in France, Lord French. and the former Chief of Stan. Sir William Robertson, are now in command. If law and order are all that is wanted in Ireland 1t can be had within 2i hours.
 ''T'ne alien Government of Britain has only to withdraw It's army of oc- cupation. This occupation is the cause Of disorders Let the will of the Irish people prevail The suppression by armed force of the Congress of Freely Appointed Representative of the Irish People Is a commentary which Americans will understand on Eng lands desire to make the world safe for denOcracy.'
 ''The activities of the suppressed Congress were directed toward devel- opiug the material resources of the nation and the organization of pro- ducriOn and distribution on cooper gtive lines One of the members ar rested is Minister for Trade In the Cabinet Of the Republic. The recent dccrces of the Congress were.
 '"The appointment Of a commission to inquire into and survey Treland's industrial possibilities; to establish a Consular system to promote direct trading with American and other countries to found a bank for the purchase of the extensive bIllOCk ranches for landless men who would otherwise be forced to emigraJe; to develop the fishing industry by pro- . noting cooperation among the fish ermen; to appoint an arbor day and appoint an inspector for refOrestra- ' ton, and so on.
 "It is primarily because of The DaiIy's activities in material recon ! struction work that it is now sup ! pressed. The British Government ' can't suppress and imprlson the wE0IC ' Irish people. and Ireland will never . acknowledge an alien authority.-Jhe

 James O'Neu was elected business agent defeating Joha J. EaEan who was appointed busiless agent by Sec retary DavisOn,
 The opposition to the old set of officials claimed that they were spend- ing all of their time working for the interests of the officials of the Grand Lodge and were not paying enough attention 10 the interests of the mem bers of the union.
 Ono of the members who was friendly to the Dawson officers said q at they we -e defeated by friends of sam L.avi- and local No. &a and that he wouldn't be surprised if t',e reNt thing they did was to have the new lodge endorse the petition of No. 90 for reinstatement by the Grand Lodge and to help Bavit in having his union card restored 10 him.

of Agriculture for allotment to the various states for road work. Ap- proximately l9 ,OOO of the 36,O0o mo- tor vehicles on hand had been alIot- ted to the various states and were be- ing shipped as rapidly as state of ficers were prepared to receive them. Then came an act of Congress pro hibiting this form of allotment and in the sundry civil bill approved in July the Department was directed to sell it's supplies in the open market.
 These motor vehicles are now be- ing prepared for sale. As soon as an inventory of what the Government has to sell in this line can be made ready, a money-saving and money earning routine in any sanely con- ducted business, they will be placed on the market
 Meanwhile, they have been rusting all these months for lack of funds to protect them. With millions of dol lars worth of other government sur plies. in spite of the beseechings ana advice of such a capable executive as General Goethals, they have been left exposed to deterioration because a. short-sighted Congress apparently is trying to make political capital of what it is calling a system of eco nomy.
