mo SPECIAL SESSION
OF LEGISLATURE
Morrow Doesn't Want Too Much
Money For Roads At Start
School Bills Thro'
(By Assocfated pressl

Louisville, March 1.-The Times
Frankfort special today says
there will be no extraordinary
session Of the Kentucky General
Assembly to enact revenue meas
ures to finance the new state high
way project. 1t can be definitely
stated that Gov. Morrow is salts
| fed there will be sufficient rev.
fenue available for all work that
can be done in the next two years
and he believes too much money
at the inception of the project will
constitute a real danger.
The Kentucky Educational As
sociation saw the major portion
of its legislative program success
fully carried out when the Senate
gave its appoval on Friday to two
House bills submitting constitu-
tional amendments and the bill
fixing a minimum salary of SIS a
month for rural teachers.
On Thursday the House had
concurred in the Senate bill re-
moving county schools from poll
tics by requiring the election OF
non-partisan school boards and
the appointment by this board of
the county superintendent. This
measure alo contained the provi-
sion that counties must levy tax
of at least Is cents on the 500
Of property for school purposes,
There are a number of other
measures for the good of KEN
tucky's schools, some of which
are as yet not acted upon, but
these four now ready for the gov
ernor's signature, are the most
important and the campaign for
reorganization of the state educa-
tional system can be considered
success.
State Superintendent of Public
Instruction George F. Colvin,
State Supervisor of Rural Schools
Virgil Chapman, and others in the
department have worked steadily
for the program and have placed
their campaign on so high a plane
that members Of both parties have
willing supported it.
One of the proposed constitu-
tional amendments does away
with of the election of the State
superintendent of Public Instruc-
tion and provides for his appoint
ment so that he will not be sub
iect to the vagaries of politics.
The other gives the state legisla-
ture power to determine the
method of distributing the state
school fund in place Of the present
method of apportioning it to
counties in direct prportion to the
school population. 1t provides
further that all except 10 per cent
shall be distributed upon the per
capita basis as at present and the
remainder shall be used as a state
aid fund to assist especially needy
districts and to stimulate and en-
courage increased local taxation.
This fund will amount to approx
1imately $30O,0O0. The two amend
Iments will be voted upon at the
November, 1922, election.

City Attorney Harry Miller, of Lex

at the American Legion memorial SER
vices at the First Christian church
Wednesday evening. Post Commander
Harry D. Rice is arranging a very at
tractive program for the presenta-
ton of the French diplomas to the
families of the Madison county boys
who gave their lives for their coun-
try. He will probably have it ready to
be published Tuesday The diplomas
presented by the French government
will undoubtedly be very highly priced
by everyone who receives one. The
diplomas are officially described as
follows:
The group is placed on a csnotaph

following decicace, above the sigma

Republic, Raymond Poincare.

The principal figure of the group
symbolizes the soul and spirit of the
American Army which helped France
to maintain alive the flame of the
torch of liberty and justice.
The sword is not in the scabbard
but ready at any moment to protect
and defend against the weak and op-
pressed-Who are symbolized in the
group to the left, by mother holding
her baby to her breast-s!nd to in
sure freedom and justice to the COM
ing generations, represented by the
figure of the kneeling boy, praying
and thanking God for deliverance.
At the right, the figure of a man,
chained and shackled, symbolizes the
spirit of evil and the victory over our
enemies. Also at the right, crown
ing the spirit of America, stands
"Glory" who rejoices with the old
war veteran, standing to the left of
the principal figure, symbolizing the
armies, who are always ready to fight
for the good Of humanity.
Universal fame is symbolized by
the winged figure, flying over the
group, and trumpeting to the world
the great triumph in which the United
States participated. The American
eagle posed on the staff of peace
watches zealously, and stands ready
to swoop in case our enemies again en-
deavored to disturb the peace of the
world, so dearly acquired.
The entire group is framed by a
border of oak and laurel leaves which
are always discerned to the visitors.
At the foot of the cenotaph the
flags of France and America are drap-
ed and Joined together by a wreath,
which is the mark of gratitude and
homage which France pays to our
sons who gave their lives for liberty
and justice.
The lines engraved on the wall be-
hind the group are taken from one of
Victor Hugo's famous poems, and
when translated read
"Those who died piously for their
country,
Have the right at their graves, the
people come to pray.

biased commission, and action thereon, TO be his own. 1t $ a stand
ard with which to measure his grasp of public business, and his conr-
age in dealing with large public questions of vital importance.
No later than Tuesday night, at Vaughn, Mr.. Hanna assaied the
Australian ballot law of this state, knowing that Il is as good as sim
liar laws in other states, and as carefully enforced; seeking to instill
suspicion of election boards into the public mind and TO set up ss-
picion of fraud, apparently as a sort of advance explanation for his
impending defeat. 1t is a standard with which to measure his cour-
age, because all of the election machinery of this state is under the
watchful eye Of the federal government, and all Of the agents Of that
government are Mr.. Hannas supporters in this election.
In this same speech at Vaughn, Mr.. Hanna advised the people
of his home community to receipt and ratify a deal in which persons
acting for him and in his behalf including his intimate business as
.sociate and political hacker, Ed Chase, propose to trade the county
government back into the hands of a discrelited boss, in exchange
for a handful of votes for Hanna for governor. 1t is a standard with
which TO take his measure and to gauge the sincerity of his attack
upon bosses, and corruption in the opposing party.
There ara other matters which might be found in the record and
introduced here as standards furnished by himself in his own cam
|paign, by which Mr.. Hanna may be fairly measured. The matters
mentioned, however, are matters Of general public knowledge at this
time. They are from the record Of Mr.. Iama's speeches as quoted
in friendly newspapers, and from the reaction to those speeches, as
brought fairly and squarey before the people.
Measured by these standards which lac himself has supplied in
course of his campaign, how does Mr.. Hanna measure NJ, in the mat

AIR. carl G. Magee,
Editor Albuquerque journal,
Albuquerque, ~. NJ.
In your issue of October 20 In an
article %purporting to he news you
state among other things, which
statement reflects directly upon the
character and conduct nf the under
signed with reference to his relations
to the Fo-called Independent republic
can faction of Valencia county, as
follows to wit:
Among those nominated at Los
Lunns yesterday by the regulars was
Gab.iel Sandoval OF san Mateo, who
was n delegate to the Independent
convention at Bclen. FusioniHts de-
clare that he was taken from Beleu to
san Matoo IN Ed. otcro'a automobile
and they declare Il is their belief the
promise of an office on the Otcro
Ticket caused him to desert the lnde-
pendent republicans OF san Mntco
who had named INN to represent
them at the convention OF funlonists. =
The above statement IL misleading,
ialse In part, nnd wholly intended 10
deceive the public. II Is true that 1
was affiliated with tho so-called In
dependents, and had been selected as
n delegate at their convention. This
%nffilintion md my consent to act as
a delegate for such Independents was
based upon the representation made
by so-cnlled Independent leaders. or
who Night better he tcrmed now
since | know the facts as sorohend,
dlsgruntled republicans who had per-
sonnl grievances which they desired
to revenge at the expense Of the re-
publican party.
The representations made to me
were to tho effect that the so-called
independent movement was general,
widespread. and tia there would he
delegates from zach OF the several
precincts of the county, representing
the sentiment Of the majority OF the
several precincts throughout the
county who would participate at SAID
Independent convention. Upon my
/ arrival at Belen | found that the con
vention was In no sense Representa-
tive Of the sentiment OF the people
Of the county as a whole, that eleven
precincts We're not represented ny
anyone, demonstrating the fact that
la those eleven precincts. which COM
posed the large precincts OF the
County except Belen, there was no
sentiment whatever In favor Of the
fusion movement or boiling from the
republican party. ! found further
that a substantial part Of the repre-
sentntion present at the convention
as "a matter Of fact did not represent
in good faith the districts which II
was pretended voiced the sentiment
of such districts. For instance, In
the precinct of lie Vega there was one
delegate, who elected himself, or
rather hoped on to an automobile
OF one OF the independents and rode
into Rclen and represented his pre-
cinct. Upon informing myself of the
situation, / and n delegate from Grants,
Mir. Nathan Bibo, returned to our re-
spectiye precincts, advised with our
neighbor republicans, and came to the
conclusion that tho fusion movement
was not worthy OF u support, and
upon such instructions thereafter pro-
ceeded In accordance with the wishes
Of our constituents.
