Lawson Building
Bigger Plane
Alfred w. Lawson Announces Plans
for Building Soon at Milwaukee
E'the Biggest Airship."

Another giant airliner is being built
by Alfred w. Lawson at his airplane
factory at South Milwaukee. This air
liner will eclipse by far the famous
Lawson airliner which made a success
full trip to New York and Washington
last fall. The new ship is we'll under
way and will be able to take to the
air probably by September. It will be
a regular speed demon for it will have
three 600 horse power Liberty motors,
giving it an aggregate speed Of from
115 to 100 miles an hour, says the in
ventor. It will be Of the most modern
type, for it is to be equipped with
washrooms, a baggage and express
room, nicely upholstered chairs, and
the enrance is to be near the tail at
the left side instead Of at the port
side near the wing as in the Lawson
liner No. 1. There will be a. buIkhead
at the bow which will separate the
pilots from the passengers: there will
be starboard and portside lights, for
the big liner will fly by night as well
as by day, and it will be nearly two
years ahead of aircraft as it is today,
says Mr.. Lawson.

Court Proceedings
on Death Curve
Appeal of Railway Company May De-
lay Work on the North Shore
Road for Several Years.

AS result of litigation it may be
several years before the bad stretch
Of highway between this city and RAJ
cine, on the Lake Shore road, is i'm
proved. At the present time there
are ruts and holes that make it posi-
lively dangerous to the hundreds Of
automobiles that travel that way every
week. The trouble over the straight
ening out Of the road originated over
what proportion the Chicago and
Northwestern railway should pay.
Hearings were held before the state
commission and that body fixed the
amount against the railway company
at $4,000. The railway officials took
an appeal to the Dane county circuit
court and the prospects are that the
case will go to the supreme court be-
fore it is finally settled. In the mean
time automobilists believe that the
highway commissioner should resur-
face the road where needed.

KIwANIANs PLAN MEETING.


The regular meeting Of the Kenoshs
Kiwanis club on Thursday at the Elks
Club will be another session devoted
to threshing out problems of both
club and community interest. The
five questions which are to be dis
cussed this week are Of special in
terest to the members of the club in
order to prepare for the meetings Of
the future. The Kiwanians viii state
their preference regarding the follow
ing points:
Whether the noon meetings should
be devoted entirely to local matters
with special speakers for evening
meetings Of the Kiwanians,
How meetings Of the braves can be
made more interesting.
What the program committee should
do.
How long a luncheon should be.
How to secure prompt adjourn
ment.
While the meeting is to be largely a
Kiwanis affair it is believed that it
will be of sufficient interest to the
community that every member of the
club should be present Doctor Caug-
hey, who presided at the meeting last
week will be in the chair again.

ceived at Lawrence College seeking for

WELLS FACTORY
FIRSTT'OREPORT
Employees at Wells Ma
chine Shop Vote 40 to 80
for Daylight Saving.
WILL GO TO COUNCIL

The first indication as to how the
ballot being taken in all Kenosha in
dustries today on the question Of the
re-establishment of the daylight saw
ing time schedule would result, came
from the Wells Machine Shop where
the seventy employees who voted on
the measure cast 40 ballots in favor
Of daylight saving and 80 against it.
Early this spring vote was taken
among the employees Of the Frost
Manufacturing company and more than
5000 voted for the change at that time.
Secretary Conrad Shearer Of the
Manufacturers association completed
the work of distributing the ballots
for the referendum vote in the fac
tories this morning and employees in
all of the larger industries were cast
ing their votes today. No report from
other industries is expected until late
this afternoon.
Present Reports to Council.
The plan Of those pushing the move
ment is to present the result of the
ballots taken in the factories to the
council at the special session on Fri
day evening and ask that resolution
be passed putting the daylight saving
time schedule into effect the first Of
July. They seem convinced that the
majority of the working men will be
in favor Of the change and they be-
lieve that the council will be ready to
consider the project favorably.
1t was declared that the employees
Of the factories had taken strongly to
the plan of submitting the proposal
for referendum and that a fairly
large vote was being cast in the fac
tories. Merchants of the city have
taken no united action regarding the
plan but it has become known that
they will not be averse to the change
in the event that it meets the approval
Of the majority of the working men Of
the city.
