Confronted With Recti-
flying Mistakes Made
Under Wilson Regime.

Washington.-(Special correspond
ence)-One of the objects to which
the new Republican administration
will devote itself is the proper care
of disabled veterans of the World
war. The alleged heartless way in
which those returned heroes have
been treated by the Vocational Edu-
cation bureau, the War Risk bureau,
and the Public Health service in pro-
viding and maintaining hospitals is
notorious. All of those divisions of
the government must be recognized
with the single purpose in view of dis
charging the debt which the country
owes to the disabled men from over
seas.

DUBLIN, April Ireland is rapidly
being plunged into social revolution, ac-
cording to all indications.
The air is electric with suppressed ex-
element
Rumors are freely circulated that the
republicans may launch another revolt
next week similar to that of 1916.
Official cognizance has been taken Of
these rumors by the British government.
Large masses Of British troops have
been concentrated at strategic points
throughout southern Ireland as a pre-
cautionary measure.
Sim Fein leaders declare that it Is
becoming more and more difficult to re
strain their followers.
These leaders claim that, but for their
discipline. ireland might be today in a
death struggle the like of which has never
been known before in this country.
Sim Fein leaders emphaticaliy deny
that any band Of extremists has broken
from the Sim Fein ranks and is com
mitting terrorist outrages as intimated
by certain London newspapers.
They deny with equal yigor that any
vendetta Of "Ku Klux Klan" nature ex-
lists against any Of the leaders. as was
suggested by the story that the late
Lord Mayor Thomas McCurtain of Cork
was murdered by men from the ranks of
his own society.
In refuting stories Of the alleged ven
delta, the Sim Fein leaders point 20 the
fact that the British military author
tiles, which raided McCurtain's home
Immediately after his death, carried a
warrant for his arrest.
1t was declared that the British gov
ernment, as well as the Sim Feiners,
knew McCurtain to be one Of the ablest
republican leaders in south Ireland.

HIGH
COURT UPHOLDS
UNIT ROADLAW
Madison County Decision
Testing Validity of 1919
Legislation Affirmed.

Validity Of the county unit road law
passed by the 1919 Indiana legislature
was upheld by the state supreme court
today IN the case-of George c. Forrey
against the Madison county board Of
commissioners and others.
A demurrer Of the appellee was allowed
and the decision of the Madison county
circuit court affirmed.
The attack on the road law was based
on the ground that the board OF county
commissioners could not be given the
right. under the constitution, TO pass on
improvements and then sit IN judicial
capacity on remonstrances against such
Improvements.
Effort was made to enjoin the Madison
county treasurer and county auditor from
selling bonds and expeDdlng money un-
der the road law and to prevent the
levying OF taxes by the commissioners.
A great era Of road building In Indi-
ana is expected to result under the
county unit road bill
In many counties roads have been
projected under this law. but held W
Awaiting action by the supreme court
The suit 10 test IL was brought by
financial men, ruling being necessary
before bonds could be sold.
In Marion county alone about thirty
miles Of road building estimated cost,
Sl500.oo0 has been projected under this
law.
The roads are:
Pendleton pike, from Ft Benjamin
Harrison 10 county line
Allisonville pike to county line
Brookvilie road, Arlington avenue to
county line.
Bluf road. Troy avenue 20 county line.
West Newton road from West Newton
TO county line
Crawfordsyille road from Speedway
City to county line.
Michigan road from Fifty fourth street
to county line.
All these projects have been approved
by the county council
