THIRTEEN STREETS
TO BE PAVED

Favorable comment has frequent
ly been made on our paved streets
and the present City Council, noting
the improvement (which has taken
place thru the paving done by the
old Council has ordered the paving
OF some thirteen more streets, which
will put Barbourville in the front
rank among cities OF its size in the
matter of paved streets.
Contractor Condor. who gave such
satisfaction in the first paving. is for
tunately in charge of the work, a
guarantee that the city will get what
1t is paying for. Engineer Murphy
has worked hard that the paving
might be expedited. Work will pro-
badly be done on Pine and Depot
Streets first.
No bids have yet been received
for the "a of a mile that connects
the corporation line with the pike
across the river which is a weak link
in the chain and prevents full use of
the pike being enjoyed. 1t is under
stood that Contractor Condor is
afraid to move his machinery across
the bridge for fear of damage. II
this cannot be done then why not put
In heavy macadam road in place of
the bithulitic paving? This weak
link should be eradicated before
another winter. g.

Noah Smith, of Elys, was here on
Monday and Tuesday meeting with
Knox. County Fiscal Court in an en-
deavor to get the road between Flat
Lick and Barbourville overhauled as
after a rain it is very hard shedding
to get thru.
Mr.. Smith says the road from Flat
Lick depot to the Bell County line
by the way of Elys has recently been
overhauled and is first class condi-
ton. The road from Flat Lick de-
pot to the Fighting Creek grade is in
need of some work at once and this
can be done very reasonably and will
last until wet weather sets in.
Mr.. Smith says the spirit of Bar
bourville merchants and citizens is
sadly at fault in not trying to get to-
gether and further the cause of good
roads. The lack of getting together
is keeping away investors in our
lands and property. The fact we
have such abominable road condi-
tions will drive away any live and
progressive man who might wish to
invest.

BOLIVIAN CITIZENS
DEPRIVED OF RIGHTS
BY REIGNING FORCE
(By Associated PresS)

VALPARAISO, Dec. S.-More than
100 citizens of Bolivia either have been
deported or are unable to enter that
country as the result Of the revo-
luton there last July, according to
a manifesto issued by Bolivian politi-
cal exiles here. Among the number
are President Guerra, who recently
went to the United States after being
deposed, and others are described in
the manifesto, as "some of the most
eminent men of the nation" all mem
bers of the Liberal party.
Included in the list of those barred
from entering Bolivia are: 1gnacio
Calderon, for many years Bolivian
minister at Washington; 1smael Vas
quez, vice president of the republic;
the Bolivian ministers to Japan, Ven
ezuela, Ecuador and Colombia; Josie
M. Gutierrez, consul general at New
York; Alberto Palacios, consul at San
Francisco; the ministers of foreign
relations and war, army officers, SEN
ators, deputies and a long list of
public functionaries under the old
regime.
The manifestants assert that these
men are denied the political rights by
the situation of force now reigning in
Bolivia and by the violent rupture of
constitutional order"
The Bolivian liberals residing in
Chile have formed a committee to re-
organize their party for the avowed
purpose of maintaining high national
ideals.
The revolt at LaPaZ occurred July
-. Jose Zaavedra, a republican, was
proclaimed provisional president. The
constituted authorities were deposed
and three or four days later many of
them were deported in special trains
to Chile.
Recent advices received from the
Bolivian capital were to the effect
the elections would be held soon, and
that a constitutional convention would
be called shortly afterward.

AUTOMATIC INSURANCE
FOR BRITISH WORKERS
AS RESULT OF new ACT
(By Associated PresS)

LONDON, Dec. Slight millions Of
British workers become automatically
insured against unemployment under
The UNEMPLOYMENT Insurance Act of
1920, which has just come into op-
Grafton.
This new act extends compulsory in
surance against unemployment to
practically all persons in receipt of
remuneration not exceeding $3.50
year.
After a waiting period" of three
days of unemployment, beneficiaries
be come entitled to Is shillings per
week for men, II shillings for women,
seven and one-half shillings for boys
under Is and six shillings for girls
under 49,
To qualify for benefit an insured
person must not quit her job without
good cause and must not have been
discharged for misconduct or have
gone on strike. There must also be
no refusal of a suitable job offered
and should a dispute arise on the
question of Suitability" the insured
person may appeal to a court of ref
erees. Not more than Is weeks ben
eft may be drawn in any one insur-
ance year.
Employers are free to set up insur-
ance schemes of their own giving
equal or greater advantages. The
state rate of contribution to such
special schemes or contracts will not
exceed 80 per cent of the amount
paid to the general scheme, as it is
taken for granted that in industries
with insurance systems of their own,
the rate of unemployment will be low
er than in other trades

CHILEAN NEWSPAPERS
EXPECT CONSIDERATION
OF PERUVIAN DISPUTE
tBy Associated Press)

SANTIAGO, Chile, Dec. 8.-Chilean
newspapers did not expect that the 40
year-old dispute between Chile and
Peru for possession of the territory of
Tacna and africa would be taken up by
the League of Nations assembly at
it's first meeting in Geneva this month
(Bolivia and Peru had requested the
League of Nations to revise their
treaties with Chile. Bolivia wanted
access to the sea and Peru wanted a
reconsideration of the Tacna-Arica
= agreement; but both these requests
were withdrawn early in the session,
thus preventing the possibility that the
league might encroach upon the Mon
roe Doctrine by considering those
questions in the absence of the Unit
ed States)
Newspapers here expressed the be-
lief that the League of Nations would
not touch any American questions un.
til il was decided whether the United
States would enter the league and
under what conditions. Ell Diario H.
ustrado said:
What does the problem of Tacna
and africa, proposed by our northern
neighbors, signify to the Society OF
Nations? 1t has waited years and can
wait longer without any ill resulting
to the world and to America. AS soon
as it is seen it's solution is not simple,
because our country asks the applica-
ton of treaty the treaty Of Ancon)
and Peru does not wish to recognize
it, the question would be postponed
until a less pressing time in world
affairs" The newspaper expressed
the opinion that it would be very diff
cult for the league to attempt even
"the initiation Of consideration of
American affairs without the concur
renee of the United States"
An interesting point not generally
known in connection with Chile's pref
erence to the League of Nations is
that it carried this reservation: The
government of Chile reserves the right
of considering notifications or reser-
vations to that pact that may be made
by nations signatory to the Treaty OF
Versailles and which have not ratified
it up to the present The date thus
referred to was November 4. 1919.
This reservation would leave the OPP
portunity open for Chile to adopt res
ervations subsequently made by the
United States.

FEW'HUNTlNG ACCIDENTS

HOUGHTON. Mich, Dec. S.-The
1920 deer season, which came to a
close this week. was notable for the
small number of hunting accidents.
To date but two fatalities have h"e7
reported, with only three or four
wounded This is considered a re-
markable record in view of the large
number of hunters in the woods and
a congestion made unusual by the
short season of 10 days.
From the hunting period just ended
the following facts were deduced:
The season was the shortest on rec
ord; there were fewer accidents than
in any previous year; the number of
hunters eQuaIled the quota of year
ago, fully 5000 crossing the straits
into the upper peninsula; the deer
slaughter was one of the heaviest in
Michigan's history. according to al!
available reports, in spite of the short
season.
The large number of deer killed is
expected to strengthen the position Of
sportsmen favoring a closed season.
