DO YOU MARCH
MEMORIAL DAY?
Ii So, Call Marshal WI. Franks,
So That He Can Complete
Plans for Formation.

W. L. Franks is buster than the
proverbial one-armed paperhanger
with the hives. AS chairman of the
Rock Island committee in charge
CT arrangements for the welcome
to returning soldiers he is fairly
well occupied. On top of that he is
trying to arrange the formation of
the Memorial day parade, of which
he is to be marshal, and in this
connection he is trying to get in
touch with officers of about two
score organizations which usually
take part in these events.
To facilitate matters Mr.. Franks
urges that heads of all such bod
les, patriotic, fraternal and other
wise, communicate with him at
once. The time is short and a
great deal is to be done. His tele-
phone number is 14i4

mo CORN BORER
is FOUND HERE
While Many of the Common Va
riety is Seen, None of Deadly
European Located.

W. P. Flint. chief field entomol-
ogist of Illinois, visited Rock Is
land county yesterday to investi-
gate rumors relative to the Eu-
ropean corn borer being present
here.
County Adviser Palmer r. Ed
gerton drove Mr.. Flint to both
ends of the county yesterday and
while large numbers of the com
mon American borer were found,
none of the harmful European
borer were located.
This European corn borer' is I'M
questionably the most serious
menace that has ever threatened
corn growers. So far the damage
has been confined to limited areas
in New York and Massachusetts,
but only the most vigorous and
drastic control measures will hold
this pest in check.

WILL NOT DEPART
FROM ROUTINE IN
CASE OF BATTERY

Congressman W. J. Graham used
his best efforts without avail to in
fuence the war department to set
aside it's regular order OF proceed
ure in order to give Rock Island
and Moline a chance to see Bat
terry F as a unit. In a letter re-
ceived today by a member of the
local committee arranging for the
welcome he says:
Replying further to your tele
gram of the 18th instant, relative
to having the One Hundred Twen-
ty-third field artillery parade in
Rock Island, l have to say that /
have had this matter, as we'll as
the matter of demobilizing this
unit at Rock Island, up with the
department, and find the depart
ment will not vary its rule to de-
mobilize these men at the arsenal.
The department has sbeen consist
ent in ordering the rehabilitation
of the soldiers at the camps, where
the necessary machinery is all set
up, instead of breaking them into
small units.
at will be readily seen, of
course, that if the men cannot be
demobilized at Rock Island, it
would be very expensive to the
government, as well as a cause of
considerable delay in getting the
men out of the service, if they
were to be ordered from Chicago,
where they Will parade, to Rock
Island and then back to Camp
Grant for rehabilitation.
II am advised, however, that the
commanding officer at Camp Grant
has been directed to effect the de-
mobilization of the units in such
manner that the men coming from
any particular community may re-
turn home in body, so that a
homecoming welcome may be &C
corded them if It is desired. They
will, of course, be in uniform, but
without arms or equipment.
II regret that conditions are
such that the request of The people
of Rock Island cannot be granted,
but have done all 1 can in the mat
ter.
Sincerely yours,
''W. J. GRAHAM"

the east where he studied the borer
first hand. He says the expense
and work involved in the eradicat-
ing of this pest is terrific. For
example, an infected corn field IS
to be cleaned up, the state sends
in a force of men who pull every
corn stubble, carry them to the
ends of the field and burn them.
The ground is then raked and this
trash burned with burning oil III

The work of the European corn
borer is easily spotted because of
the fact that he seems to have an
especial fondness for the tossel.

corn plant and working his way

the borer's work usually break

ScHRIvER TO
STUDY AUDIT
RAIL REPORT
Mayor VIII Go Over Every Phase
of Document Submitted by j.
J. Fraser.
MUCH INTEREST ATTACHED
Report Follows Closely on Heels
OF HuntOOn's Statement Re-
gardiag Company Finances.

Mayor Harry NJ. Schriver stated
today that the report submitted to
the city by ]. ]. Fraser, auditor of
the Illinois public utilities commits
sion regarding the yearly business
Of the Tri-City Railway company,
will require an exhaustive study be-
fore any conclusion as to the pres
ent financial standing of the con-
Germ can be reached.
Much interest is attached to the
present report, coming as it does
following the statement of ]. H.
Huntoon, general manager of The
railway company, that the finances
of the company are in anything put
a favorable status and that unless
some increased. revenue is immedi-
ately forthcoming to enable the
company to meet the demands of
the employees, the alternative of the
company is bankruptcy.
The report at a first glance shows
that the observations of Mayor
Schriver are correct as regards the
business of the company in this
city. The mayor suggested at the
last meeting of the commission that
in his opinion the railway company
was doing a good business in this
city and Davenport and that the
loss was being Occasioned by the
subsidiary traction companies. How
ever, the mayor is not willing TO
make a statement regarding the re-
port until he has deveIed into every
phase of the document.
Good Business.
The total revenue during 1918
was $799,23205, according to the
report andthis is a contrast to the
previous yearly report which was
$762, S5S.32 In 1915 the report
showed a total revenue of $685.
01045.
In addition to the transportation
revenue of $799, 23205 in 1918 the
company received ,$39,785.2S
through other railway operations,
making a total of $S19,O17.39.
The report shows the operating
expenses for the year amounted to
S515, $3.50, leaving a net revenue
from railway operations of $685.
1894. Taxes assignable to railway
Operations amounted to $46, 663.15,
leaving an operating income of
$261 ,8O0.79
The non operating income
amounted to $7SS; interest during
construction, $5,2S6.26; total non
operating income, $6.074.26, making
a gross income of $267, S75.05. De-
duction is made of $50. $50 as inter
est on funded debt and S25, 1924. SIS
as interest on unfunded debt, maxi
ing total deductions from gross in
come of $1S970050. In contrasting
this sum with net income for other
years, it is shown that the net in
come for 1917 was $500, 6496O for
1916, S212,4S2.12, and for 1914,
$135,146.50.

ance of Mr.. Flints visit here, M.
Edgerton said: Just a word about
the value to a state of mon like
Mr.. Flint. Here is a situation ~
veloping which threatens Illi6ois'
most important crop. What would
it mean to us here in Rock Island
county and to the whole corn belt
If the European corn borer gained
foot hold? And yet how few Of
US stop to realize the important
part our state bug men," as they
are usually called, are playing as
guardians of our interests. IL
seems to me the bug men" have
never had quite all the credit
that was coming to them.'
