FOUR DIFFERENT TIMES
ON CLOCKS IN OHIO

COLUMBUS. O., May 12.-Ohio
will have four different names for
It's clock time this summer, II three
actually different kinds of time. They
are: Eastern standard. sun time, GEN.
trail standard and advanced central
standard.
The last mentioned is a name only,
for its comedies with eastern standard
time. The name came about through
action of communities in western
Ohio deciding to advance their clocks
one hour 1t was the same as eastern
standard time. but they preferred
to call it advanced central standard.
About half of Ohio is on eastern
standard time because the regular
dividing line runs midstate from-north
TO south.
When it is noon at Youngstown,
1t will be IL a. m. at Cincinnati, Day
ton II Toledo, but it viii be noon
at Hamilton n Springield;- which
are but a few miles out of Cincinnati
and Dayton. At the same time, it

eu sreoiGI CORRESPONDENT
TRENTON, May 1.-THE housing
legislation is now up to the state SEN
ate. where It's fate seems to be in
doubt. Piloted by Republican House
Leader Hershfield, OF Passaic, the five
bills to relievt the situation and curb
the rent profiteers yesterday were ap-
proved by the House without a dis
Senting vote. They were introduced
and passed under a suspension of
The rules In the lower branch of the
legislature with a number of victims
of the rent profiteers sitting in the
gallery watching and a~pplauding the
proceedings.
Impetus to the passage of the leg
islation in the assembly was lent by
Governor Edwards who sent TO the
lawmakers his record housing mes
sage of this session of the Legislature.
In il III praised the action OF the
legislature in appointing "a housing
Investigation committee and urged
immediate action upon the bills which
had been drafted to cure the evil.
IL will not rehearse the facts" said
Mr.. Edwards, 1.-THE conditions are
known to everyone; the untoward ef-
fects and suffering resulting from the
Jack of proper housing accommodh-
lions are visited upon all the people
of the state: the situation is acute
ana Cltlltdl. we NOulh pS a.
in the discharge OF our duty were
we to fail to help"
But the hitch came when the 1--WE
bills reached the senate Senator Kun
Son, chairman of the Investigating
committee, was surprised to learn,
that the bill he was to ave INTRODUCE
ed in the upper body and which had
been printed with his name upon

nfhot. Sifra3 and lslahph through
the House. He. however, declared
there was no intention to slight him
by this action of House friends of
the bills. which he also favors.
But Senators Allen. of Salem, Re-
publican floor leader. Pilgrim, of Es-
sex, Republican. and Simpson, hudson
Democrat, verbally jumped all over
the program. As the result OF their
opposition the bills are not now OFF,
cially before the senate. Upon the
motion of Allen. who a week 6 said
the housing problem was a pet idea,
they were referred to the investigating
committee, which plans to hold hear
ings in Newark, Jersey CITY and this
city.

time
Both Pilgrim and Simpson are SEN
ate members, along with Runyon. OF
the investigating committee, but
neither of them attended the confer
ences held last week and on Monday
here to draft the bills, claiming they
received the notices too late,
Both used their legal training to
throw a cloak of doubt about the ac-
ton OF the House in passing the meas
ures.
A strong lobby of real estate brok-
eFs appeared in the corridors of the
state house yesterday ready to fight
the bills and they will attend the
hearings to present their opposition.
Senator unyon said he would call
the hearing for next week.

BOURBON TOBACCO WAREHOUSE
co. ISSUES STATEMENT

PARIS, KY, Dec. 16. 1925.
To The Tobacco Growers of Bourbon
County:
The Bourbon Tobacco Warehouse
Company wishes to announce that by
consent of the market the opening
sale of the season will be held at the
Old Bourbon House on Tuesday, Jan.
a, at 9 a. m. We will begin receiv-
ing and weighing on Dec. %.
We further desire to announce
that we will continue to sell at the
same old fees, 2 per cent commission
and Is cents per hundred pounds.
This company has consistently stood
for these fees for years and we claim
to have built up one of the very best
markets in the State and to have
earned the growers many thousands
of dollars by our stand.
We have prospered, and the tobac-
CO growers have prospered, and now
that bad year seems to be staring
us all in the face, we think it would
be unfair for us. to refuse to bear our
part of the readjustment to changed
conditions by passing the burden on
the tobacco growers. We will not do
it. We will be on the job as in the
past doing our best for every seller
at the same old fees.
Very truly yours,
BOURBON TOBACCO WARE.
