WILL ASK new
HIGHWAY BODY
Chamber Of Commerce to Lend
Support to Measure for Fed
eral Commission.

The Rock Island Chamber OF
Commerce, in compliance with a
request from the federal highway
council, will ask of committeeman
of the Republican and Democratic
parties of this<state that they work
for the Incorporation in the nation
al party platforms of a plank call
ing for the creation OF a federal
highway commission. Bulletins
outlining the policy for this COM
mission have been ordered by the
Chamber of Commerce, and several
hundred will be sent to Rock Is
land citizens with a request that
they support the measure.
As outlined the plan calls for:
"The creation of a federal highway
commission Of five members, Sc
lected geographically, with author
ity TO take over the present high
way activities OF the department OF
agriculture in cooperation with the
states in the expenditure Of pres
ent and future appropriations for
federal aid. This plan means that
instead of federal administration Of
highways, involving the expendi..
ture OF hundreds of millions Of
dollars, being handled by one Of 16
bureaus of a governmental depart
ment, the responsibility will be
placed in a separate body, with di-
rect responsibility to the public,
whose sole duty will be the study
and administration of highway af-
fairs"
Five Districts.
The United States will be divid-
ed into five districts, in each of
| which a commissioner will study
conditions and advise with distri.s
highway engineers.
The plan further calls for the
establishment of a national system
| of highways with two roads cross
ing each state, to be selected
constructed and maintained by the
federal government" under the ad-
ministration of the commission.
The third a.ticle calls for the
continuance Of federal aid to states
after 1921 for such period as will
enable the states to complete their
state systems. and the fourth calls
for the expenditure of all federal
appropriations SO as to provide def
mite system of the connected high
ways, national. state and county.

DISSENTING ON
LOYALTY STAND
Men Who Walked Out Coming Back
One at q Time-UniOn to Iron
Out Affairs Tonight.

Not over ten members of local
No. 1873, Switchmen's Union of
North America, still remain of
duty in connection with an at
tempted forced strike, it was learn
ed today.
There were slightly more than
this number who walked out in the
last few days, but they have been
coming back one by one.
The Rock Island road is the only
system affected, and it was learned
that the road officials have deemed
the dissension SO unimportant as
to practically pay no attention to
the matter and are taking the men
back with no questions asked.
Information was at hand today
that due to the conditions in other
nearby points the road has con-
siderably less work for the men
now, but has never mentioned a
layoff on account of the loyalty
shown by the union and also in re-
Spouse to public sentiment. which
has been exceptionally favorable
to the men on account of their
stand to remain loyal to their in
ternational union.

ST. OLAF CHOIR
| TO SING HERE
Fifty Mixed Voices to Be Heard in
Concert Of Lutheran Music
ut Augustana.

A musical organization Of so
young men and women from st.
Olaf's college. Mortified, Mimi,
will appear at Augustana college
gymnasium at 8:15 o'clock Satur-
day evening, May 5, in concert OF
Lutheran music.
DR.. Gustav Andreen is chairman
Of the local committee arranging
the concert. Tickets have been
placed on sale at Schmidt's Music
store, the Cable Music house, Dav-
export, and the Tri-City Piano com
pany, Moline.
The organization comes highly
recommended and bearing tributes
from music critics wherever it has
appeared, testifying to its WORTH
ness to receive the support of the
public. Rene Devries, writing for
the Musical Courier, New York,
says:
"st. Olaf choir, from St. Olaf
college: Mortified, Mimi, under
the leadership of F. Melius Chris
Hansen and under the concert di-
rection Of Vessels & Voegeli, won
an overwhelming and richly de-
served triumph at Orchestra hall
this evening. 1t is the best organi-
cation Of its kind heard in Chicago,
and this includes Sistine choir,
which appeared here last winter.
voicing the demand of the public,
N. H. Hanson, tour director, stated
that return engagement was as
sured before first intermission.
Choir, admirably well trained, sings
superbly. Voices young and Of
luscious quality. Attacks precise,
exquisite shadings and in perfect
unison. Altogether a glorious or
ganization we'll worthy patronage
OF layment and musicians"
In commenting upon the nature
OF the musical offering, Karleton
Hackett writes.
"The choir did not exactly give
= concert, at least not in the usual
meaning Of the word, since they
sang religious music exclusively
and not for the purpose of display
ing their technical skill but to lift
up their voices in praise. The
whole atmosphere of the evening
was one Of religious fervor.
They. however, evidently believe
that adequately to sing the praises
Of the Most High should call forth
the utmost skill of those chosen
because Of their special gifts. In
their singing nothing was left to
chance, but everything bespoke the
results Of the most rigorous rou-
tine under the direction of a man
who knew how the thing ought to
be done. They sang the most diff
ficult music. Bach anthems for
double chorus, Gretchaninoff an.
them for eight voices and other
numbers Of almost equally taxing
character. and all with q precision
that was remarkable. In all Of
there numbers, ! noticed but one
occasion when any of the singer.
used music. One consulted the
printed page during one number
otherwise they all sang without {
note Of music before them. tt
memcrize such music and sing will
the certainty they displayed all the
evening tells its own story to thosl
who know ANYTHING of music"
