assured the joint legislative COM

The plan follows one which
has been adopted by the state of
Illinois, Pennsylvania, Michigan
and other states and which is up
for consideration in twenty other
states. In addition to giving
assurances that the road system
will be completed, the enabling
act permits the Governor and the
state highway department to go
ahead with the completion of the
system of highways just as rapi-
dly as is possible to efficiently do
so. This is considered highly
important as it is recognized that
the more quickly the system of
roads can be constructed and in
use the greater benefit it will be
in the development of the state.
1t will also enable the state to
give more employment to its
citizens which is generally re-
: cognized as being greatly needed

presantatives 70 Memorial Services
TO Be Held In Metropolis On
Wednesday Evening

The flag above the Red Gross rooms
was at half mast today. Lowered, but
brilliant with its sacred symbolism, it
fluttered its last homage to Miss Jane
Delano, the American Red Cross nurse,
who gave her life on the field Of
honor in France.
Kenosha has arranged no individual
memorial for the national heroine but
it will participate in the ceremonies
to be solemnized at the Fourth Presby-
terrain church in Chicago on Wednes-
day evening. Special delegations from
the Kenosha hospital and from the
local Red Gross chapter will attend this
service in a body and thereby express
the city 3 grief at the death Of q dis
tinguished woman, patriotess and mar
tyr.
Cablegrams from France attest the
heroic service Of Miss Delano. A mes
sage from Livingston Farrand, dated
April "a, 1919, says:
+ cannot express the loss which the
American Red Cross has suffered in
the death Of Miss Jane a. Delano, Di-
rector General Of the Department. Of
Nursing. Not only her long service
both before and dnring the war, but her
broad sympathy, her sincerity and her
Judgment made her one of the most
striking and valuable figures in the
entire history Of the American Red
Cross. She cannot be replaced. I need
not add on behalf Of the entire person
mel Of the American Bed Cross, the ex-
preston Of personal bereavement
which the thousands who have worked
with Miss Delano feel at her Ioss.''
A radio dispatch from Henry 2. Das
vison reads:
EsTEhe. News Of the death Of Miss
Jane A. Delano, Director General Of the
Department Of Nursing, American Red
Cross, is a shock not only to the people
throughout the United tSates but to
many thousands of her friends in Eu-
rope who knew Of her International
work. She was a commanding and no
bic woman. Serving as a full voIun-
teer throughout the war, and for many
years before the war, as Chairman Of
the National Committee on Red Cross
Nursing Service, Miss Delano recruit
ed nurses both for duty with orr army
and with the Red Cross.
stThe value Of what she did for our
cause can never be measured. Appre
citation Of her individual services will
grow as the knowledge Of the work
done by nurses during this war becomes
more known to the world. She was
beloved by al who knew her, and Of
those who worked with her it may be
said that they learned quickly to re-
spect her ability, to be inspired by her
fervor, and TO realize that no one Was
ever more truly animated with spirit Of
the Red Cross. I am sure it can be
said Of Miss Delano that her thought
from beginning to end was never for
herself, but was for the service Of
humanity
