JOHNSON VOTE In
MICHIGAN TO Be CLOSE

DETROIT, Mich. April 4.-The
most strenuous political campaign in
the history OF Michigan closed last
night with a barrage OF oratory from
scores OF candidates and their work
ers.
The main issue in the State is pre-
ferential Presidential nominations
which are to be made in Mondays
primaries by both Democratic and
Republican voters. The hottest fight
has been waged between Senator
Hiram Johnson, Of California, and
Gen. Leonard Wood for the Repub-
lican preference. There has also been
some activity by Senator Miles Poin-
dexter and his hackers, but chief in
terest on the eve Of the balloting
centers around the Johnson-Wood
contest.
Herbert Hoover, whose delayed an.
nouncement Of his candidacy created
stir in political circles. will also
receive more than mediocre support
in Michigan, as will Governor Low
den, Illinois, who has made several
campaign tours through the state.
In the Democratic primary William
Gibbs McAdoo will probably lead the
race for the Presidential nomination,
according to close observers.

Congress to Grant Definite
Building Program.

Congress will be asked this week
to pass a bill creating a school buiid-
ing commission composed OF the Dis
trict OF Columbia Engineer commis-
sion and the Municipal Architect.
which will be granted permission TO
make a detailed survey of the entire
school system OF Washington and
map and enforce a fiye-yeaT building
program.
This action was decided upon yea
terday by the National Capital School
Betterment Council at a meeting held
in the Willard Hotel The council
will also ask Congress to establish
separate appropriation fund from
which funds will be drawn to erect
school buildings, together with tn"
request that Snowden Ashford, Mu-
nicipal Architect, be called before the
Senate subcommittee on appropris-
tions to determine what appropria
tions should be granted for new
schoolhouses.
Committee IL Named.
A committee consisting OF Jesse c.
Suter, w. B. Todd and Ellen Spencer
Mussey. of the District Bar Associa-
tion. Will appear before the Senate
Appropriations Committee in supper
of the separate school fund.
A communication prepared by Jess
c. Suter, pointing out the necessity
OF postponing the erection OF municl-
pal lodging houses, swimming pools,
public convenience stations. etc. and
advocating the construction OF new
school houses was read and will be
presented TO the Senate committee.
Called Imperative Need.
In his communication Mr.. Suter
states that unless something is done
to relieve the conditions in certain
school buildings of the District. many
school children will suffer the handi-
cap OF going without a sufficient edu-
cation. II adequate relief is not af-
forded in the pending school bill for
1921, no additional school rooms will
be available for several years, and by
1923 the conditions will be calamitous,
according to the communication.
The sum now appropriated for tlN
proposed erection of lodging houses
swimming pools, etc, amounts -
$l29 9,291. and the council committss
will ask the Senate TO transfer this
amount to the school funds. The ap-
propriations now on hand for rHs
school buildings amounts to s604.971.
and by transferring the appropria-
tions of 1929 POI to be used for other
buildings. the school appropriations
fund will be brought up to S743,262.

The Phoebe Mines Company. working
in conjunction with the officials of Lin

portant and much needed repair work
on the roads between the mines oper-
ated by the company and the town OF

the Improvement being met. by the Pr
oche Mines Company.
This stretch OF road is located on the
Lincoln county highway and extends
for distance of between two and two
and one-half miles. which. according
to Mr.. Huson. can be made into a real
road for approximately 500 per mile
The system of preparing the road for
heavy traffic Is n simple one, but one
that officials of the company are GER
tain will put the highway in excellent
condition at minimum expense. In
stead of being permitted to swerve to
the right or to the left promiscuously,
the grade will be so constructed that
the highway grades will be tuned on
the order of a railroad grade. In addi-
ton to this the road will be smoothed
up.
