URGES ROAD FUND
Use Auto License Tax for Hard
Highways, Pettijohn Plan.
Unprogressiye To Use 1t All for
Dragging, He Asserts.

Recommendation that the enormous
funds turned into the state treasury in
automobile licenses be utilized in the
creation of a permanent hard sur
faced road building fund was made
this afternoon by L. ]. Pettijohn.
secretary of state, in an address be-
fore the county treasurers, county
commissioners and county engineers
at the EIks' club building
Il believe" said Pettijohn. that
the people of Kansas have determined
that they are not getting the worth of
their money out of this fund, and that
the only way that they can get a
lasting benefit is to place the greater
part of the automobile license fund
into a permanent hard surfaced road
building fund, administered by the
Kansas highway commission
Pettijohn told county officials that
this year Kansas will have more than
a million dollars in the automobile
license fund. deposited with county
treasurers thruout the state. Accord
ing to the present automobile license
law. this can only be used to apply on
the dragging of legally esta tablished
county and township roads.
Docs Not Better Roads
This" said Pettijohn, is too large
a fund for the state of Kansas to spend
every year without getting hard sur
faced roads built. In<fact, after this
million dollars has been spent within
the coming year we will find that, one
year from today. our roads will not be
in any better condition than they are
at the present time.
This fund will grow from year to
year and l am heartily in favor of a
radical change in the present law to
protect it properly. Further, I am in
| favor of all cars in Kansas being ex-
empted from personal taxation, that
the license fee be increased. that the
minimum tax be IS or $40 with a
graduated fee based on horse power or
value of car. and that the entire
amount of this money go into a hard
surfaced road fund"

BOYS FRANKS MENACE
Drop Electric Wires Carrying 1880
Volts to Strcets-Arrests Threatened.

{ Several nights in the last week many
Topekans were exposed to instant
death by youthful marauders who
-loosened ropes on street lights. letting
them sdrop to the streets below. Super
intendent Painter declared today
- The boys do not know that the wires
carry 2.300 volts, Painter said. and
should "a person walk into the wire
in the dark instant death would occur
Should motor car drive into one of
them the completion of the circuit
would probably kill every one in the
car.
Most of the trouble occurred in
North Topeka in a. small radius, it was
declared. It is expected the offenders
viii be pickedup- Fines are going to
result, Painter and Commissioner
Stanfield asserted.
The grief of the department is not
limited to North Topeka On the west

ing target practice" by busting
electric light globes. The resulting
explosion. like the noise of a shotgun
going off, is JOY to their young ears,
but the city officials are going to
spring a new kind of noise on them
in the near future, they declared to-
day.
Commissioner Stanfield today urged
parents to take the youn gsfers in hand

STEAL CITY WATER
stanfield To Prosecute Hy-
drant and Meter 'sTappers."
Evidence of Wholesale Thefts
Checked Up to City Attorney.

AItho no charges have been pre-
ferred, Commissioner Stanfield today
prepared to take action against num-
ber of Topeka consumers who have
stolen city water.
Evidence is collected. the commits
sioner asserted today but he is wait
ing until the city attorney can inform
hin=as TO how far the charges can
be pushed 1t is his intention to
push as far as possible.
He has on his list several varieties
of cases. Some are deliberate thefts
of water. Lines were tapped or meters
switched. In others. Stanfield feels
convinced the theft was due TO igner-
ance of the fact that permits must be
had to use water, and some users be-
ieyed that other parties were paying
the water bill on the property.
The entire water system was in
spected secretly with practically no
intimation that an effort was being
made to ascertain where water was go-
ing. Commissioned Stanfield iutimat-
ed that disclosures of a y decidedly
startling character could he made. For
the present he does not intend to make
them public he said. except in cases
where glaring attempts o~defraud. the
city have been made. and this will be
thru court procedure.
Stanfield was threatened this morn
ing by three lawsuits against the wa
ter department because water was
turned off for non-payment of bills.
This was in accordance with the rules
of the department and within its legal
rights, he said. N@
The commissioner intends to insti-
tute a stringent campaign to get mon
ey that is due the city. to stop water
stealing both in private lines and at
the fire hydrants. he said. The latter
practice has increased recently, the
commissioner declared. Evidence was

JAPAN CLAIMS CHINA POLICY
 IS JUSTIFIED

TOXIC, June 12 Correspondence of the Associated Press).-Japan does not pretend to be wholly unselfish in her policy toward China" says the Herald of Asia, conservative journal of Japanese thought. Japan is pro- tecting China chiefly for the sake of her own security" the paper con- tinues.
 Japan can not allow China to bar ter away her birthright even if she is simple enough to engage in such folly. If China wants to test Japan's sincerity, let her refuse all further concessions to Occidental nations and secure for all time the inalienation of her territory, and Japan's task in re- gard to China will be finished.
 Tt is question, however, whether China is yet able to do without the assistance of Japan in keeping foreign nations at bay; and this help, strange to say, is just what China does not want Is it that China would rather be slave of the white races than the equal of Japan? We can hardly credit this.
 There is no need for China to be anxious about the return of Kiaou- chow. Japan has promised to restore the territory to China just as soon as China is able to guarantee that it will not again fall into the hands of a third party. What more can China desire? And does justice require more? China talks as if she were an absolutely independent nation, grant ing concessions to no country. If she will take this attitude toward all west ern countries Japan will be ready to concede China her new status. But to show desire to cast out Japan while leaving others in place is some thing no one can expect Japan to ap- prove"

 THE BIG LEAGUES

New York, June 15.-New York teams led both the National and American leagues last week, the Giants having maintained their lead while the Yankees took advantage of Chicagos 800 pace and went into the top position Thursday. The Yankees fell back behind Chicago today. when Shocker of St. Louis shut them out.
 The western teams in the National league showed remarkable strength on their home grounds. winning q games out of 25 played. Cincinnati cut slightly into New York's lead, Chicago gained considerable ground and Pitts burgh climbed into fourth position by winning all of it's games. Phila and Brooklyn lost all of their games. the Dodgers, who suffered their tenth straight defeat Saturday. volplaning from first to sixth position.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS REAcTloNARY.

New York. June 16-The stock mar ket continued its reactionary course today chiefly as a result of adverse !aonC " conditions and other unfa- voranle developments which precipf- tated further liquidation of speculative holdings.
 Call money again rose to 12 per cent fer n.'xeG collateral and as much as 15 ra- cent was paid for loans on all industr:a' security.
 Time funds were distinctly firmer. TEe rate for commercial paper also hardened and heavy discounting was re ported by the local federal reserve bank
 These significant incidents were re- inforced by cables which suggested a demonstration by the allied forces, the more critical situation in Mexico and disapproval by the shareholders of the plan to dispose of the Mercantile Ma rine tonnage and assets to British in- terests.
 Trading was again very large and varied, but most of the activity oc- cured during the intermediate and later stages of the session, when prices were at lowest levels and pressure most general.
 Among the popular oils extreme re- cessio~~ ranged from four to almost ten T } ts. motors reacted three to seven, shiDpings two to almost eight, steels and kindred equipments two to seven and feathers, textiles, tobaccos and food shares two to eight points.
 Rails held better than any other branch of the list, the setback in that quarter, save among a few of the sec ondary or minor issues. running from one to two points. Sales amounted to 1,fG5,000 shares.
 Further exports of gold to South America and Japan were in process of negotiation, these being neutralized by prospects of additional imports of the metal from Canada.
 Bonds as whole, including Liberty and foreign issues. eased slightly on relatively light turnover Total sales, par value. aggregated $11,600.00o.
 Old U. s. bonds were unchanged on call.
