COURT SUSPENDS
CAR INJUNCTION
B. & O. and Other Roads May
Keep on Distributing Car
riers to End Coal Crisis.

ASHEVILLE, n. c., July 20.-An in
junction issued by United States Dis
trict Judge Dayton recently at Phil
lippi. W. Va. restraining the Balti
more and Ohio and all other rail-
roads east of the Mississippi river
from distributing special coal cars in
the mining territory as an emergency
step in the face of the present coal
shortage was stayed and suspended
here yesterday by the United States
circuit court of appeals.
The order was written by Judge ].
c. Pritchard of this city. senior cir
cult judge presiding. and concurred
in by Circuit Judge Martin 4. Knapp
Of Washington. ID. G., and Charles A.
Woods of Marion, S. c., and United
States District Judge Henry a. NJ
Smith of Charleston, S. c., sitting in
ar advisory capacity.
Under the order of district court,
Judge Dayton. the injunction was to
have become effective today.
After devoting almost two days to
the motion for appeals. the circuit
judges were unable to reach a de-
cision. Realizing that the order would
become effective in a few hours and
taking cognizance of its far-reaching
result, they decided to stay and suS
pend the Injunction until the appeal
IS finally determined.
The railroads are said to have sent
the special cars into the mining dis
tricts under an order issued by the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
This order was the chief point of dis
cuSSion. the commission holding that
it was empowered to issue such an
order under section fifteen of the in

MARION, Ohio, July 25.-Mrs. Edna
S. Blair, prominent as suffrage worker
and as a club woman in the middle
west, and now attached to the Harding
headquarters here as one of the office
staff. expects to undertake number of
organization and speaking tours in the
states of this and other sections when
the campaign warns up. Mrs. Blair was
born in Ohio, but her family later moved
to Michigan, where her father, Judge
don is one of the charter members of
the republican party, and in his youth
supported Chase and Fremont
Mrs. Blair was only seventeen years
old when she first went on the stump"
Her father was up for election that
time and he was ill. She jumped into
the campaign and carried the election
for him. Since then she has had a great
deal of experience as a public speaker.
In 1914 Mrs. Blair was state organizer
in Michigan for the woman suffragists,
chairman of the publicity committee and
editor of the Michigan Suffragist. She
has been closely associated with the
women's club movement in America and
at one time was member of the civil
service reform committee of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs. She is
writer and has done newspaper work as
well as contributed to magazines. Suf-
frage, child welfare, hygiene and health
are some of the subjects she has written
about.
During the war Mrs. Blair did her
'bit'' in the War Department as a sta
tistician. When the fighting ceased she
joined the republican national commit
tee headquarters in Washington, and it
was by the national committee she was
assigned to the Harding headquarters
here.

Harding was going to have a notable
victory in Wisconsin when the votes
are counted week after next.
"There is no sentiment for Cox in
my territory" was almost the unani-
nous statement of the men directing
the newspapers of the state. Even
men who are inclined to be Democra-
tic in their sentiment, admitted that so

Lenroot Coming Strong.
The visiting newspaper men echoed
the strong sentiment for the re-
election Of Senator Lenroot. They re-
ferred to Professor Reinsch as an ex-
cellent fellow but man with no
chance to be elected United States
senator from Wisconsin. Professor
Reinsch is an excellent fellow" said
one of the league leaders, "but people
who have seen professor" Wilson
in action are not anxious to have any
more school teachers in charge Of the
government at Washington"
Sentiment for Blaine was lacking
among the Kenosha visitors and they
brought the word that all over Wis
consin the Republicans were turning to
Judge Mccoy as the man who is the best
candidate for governor of the state.
WI. Morgan of Milwaukee, Repub-
lican candidate for attorney general
came down this morning to be present
at the MONDAY luncheon of the league
and he brought a message of good
will to the newspaper men. He did
not talk politics during his stay in
Kenosha and declared that he had no
idea of talking politics. In an in
terview he declared that the campaign
was going fast and fine and that the
people were rapidly turning from the
non-partisan league visitation.
Have Luncheon at Elks.
The members Of the league were the
guest of the Kenosha News Publica-
tion company at the Elks club at noon
when a luncheon was served with COW
ers laid for twenty-four guests. The
only men outside the members of the
Fourth Estate present at the dinner
were, Mayor John G. Joachim and Mr..

American Youth Sees
Advantage Of College
Julius Fl. Barnes the Chairman of the
Public Service Institute, Makes
Figures known.

New York-American youths enter
ing college have increased in numbers
at record rate during the past six
years and if the proportionate growth
is continued to 1860 there will be
1,138,000 students in 210 institutions
where 100000 were enrolled last year.
These figures, compiled by the Insti-
tute for Public Service, have raised
the question of where the money
needed to educate these larger groups
will come from.
Julius III. Barnes, chairman of the
Institute, found in a study of the
figures compiled that this years in
crease in the number of students
enrolled in the colleges has set a
new record.
Colleges which in 1914 had $4,000
students and last year $4,000 will en-
roll 1900 in 1880 and $4,000 in
1850, if they continue the same num-
Der increase each year, a report of
the Institute states. But, If they
grow at the average percentage rate
of the last six years, they will have
$4,000 students in 1880 and 1,138,000
twenty years later.
Taking the lower estimate for 1850,
1t means finding facilities for more
than three times the total for 1920
at six or seven times the salary cost"
said the report. "It means adding
$4,000 students, or 200 colleges the
size of Yale last year
The Institute asks, "will the money
70 provide education for the increased
number of students. come from taxa
ton, endowment, private gifts and
larger fees? Must present universe
ties grow or more universities be
built?"
In numbers, the largest increase in
six years is credited to the College
of the City of New York with growth
Of $500, followed by the University Of
California with $500 increase and Bos-
ton University with 4,7OO. Yale was
one of four institutions which had
fewer students than six years ago,
Its decrease being 81, the Institute
reported.
Concluding his observations, Mr..
Barnes said there is treason to believe
that in any future democratizing of
opportunities for higher education,
afternoon and night classes at colleges
and extension classes away from col
leges wilit be needed to give the elias
relty which the demand requires"

Chief Still Suffers
from Ancient Attack
Chief O'Hare Forced to Sacrifice Front
Teeth as Result of Injuries of
Eighteen Years Ago.

Chief of Police Owen O'Hare is GO
ing to have "store" teeth. His friends
who met him today were greeted by
a toothless smile as on Thursday the
chief hied himself to a dentists shop
and had the full row of front teeth
pulled out. In short time he is GO
ing to have a new supply of the most
modern works of the dentists art.
The troubles of the chief are the re-
suit of an attack made upon him more
than eighteen years ago. He was tax
ling a couple Of prisoners to the county
Jail when they attacked him and one
of them struck him with such vio-
lence that two of the front teeth were
broken off and made loose. The chief
has been nursing the teeth ever since
in hopes of saving them. The records
indicate that the fellows who attacked
the chief did not escape.

George Green Tells Manager of the Company
How to Widen Main Street and I'm
prove Service.
SEE MERIT IN PROPOSED PLAN
Would Build New Line on Sheridan Road and Spur on
Pearl st. to Aid in Keeping Cars Moying-North
and South Operation Not Interferred.

George Green, who leads the Since
band nights and works on things for
the improvement of the city good
part of the day has sent to the local
manager Of the Wisconsin Gas & Elec-
trio company suggestions for the
widening Of Main street" and the i'm
provement Of local street car service.
The manager of the company has con-
scented to consider the propositions
made by Mr.. Green and it is expect
ed that sooner or later the suggestions
will find their way to the head officials
of the company.
The Green" plan proposes an aux
iliary track for the company on sheri-
dan Road between Market street and
South street with re-routing of the
cars so that it will make it unnecessary
to have double track on any portion
Of Main street. He declares that with
the removal of the switches and dou-
BILE tracks on Main street a large
amount Of the street will be released
for the use of vehicles and that the
change would bring vastly improved
street railway traffic
Would Keep Cars Going
Green declares that the greatest
amount of the running time of street
cars is spent waiting at switches and
at crossings. He suggests that with
the Sheridan Road loop and more
considerable use of Market Square, to-
gether with the building Of a short
spur on Pearl street, between Main and
Exchange street will eliminate lot of
the troubles Of the company in solv-
ing the question of more rapid and
more satisfactory service.
His plan includes the taking out of
the center Of Market square and open
ing this ground as a parking place for
automobiles as we'll as place for
more car tracks to make possible bet
ter handling of the street cars. He
suggests along with the other things
the government giving up portion OF
the land to the north of the postoff1ce
to make possible che widening out of
Market Square as far as Sheridan
Road
How Cars Would Run.
Under the Green plan the cars would
be operated as follows: Cars coming
from South Sheridan Road and from
West Elizabeth street would turn east
on South street and run to Main street
and go north on Main street; the
