Plea for Traffic Regulation in

hOled. e.
2 DEATHS DUE TO LACR

The death of Mrs. Elizabeth McAbee,
127 West Twenty fourth street, after be-
ing hit by an unknown speeder in Mon
ument circle last Friday night, recalls
the fact that Col. Oran Perry, superin-
tendent of the Soldiers and Sailors mon
ument, called the attention Of Mayor
Charles w. Jeyett to traffic conditions
in the circle and suggested a remedy
for them last April.
This was about the time of the death
of Sister Mary Blanche of st. Vincents
hospital. who was hit by a taxicab, the
driver of which was racing with another
in Monument circle.
In his communication to the mayor,
Col. Perry declared that in the two years
he has been In charge of the monument
he has never seen policeman exer-
clsing his authority over drivers who
race around the circle two, and some
times three, abreast"
He suggested that policemen be sta
toned in the Circle to compel drivers
to traverse II at a more moderate speed
and to prohibit them from passing each
other.
COL. PERRY's
LETTER TO JEWETT.
Here Is the letter in full:
'My Dear Sir:
"The circle is the most dangerous
place in the city and absolutely with
out police protection. I have been here
nearly two years and in all of that time
have never seen policeman exercising
his authority over drivers who race
around the circle two and sometimes
three abreast.
After being held up by the traffic
H.
make up the lost time on the circle.
The only way to remedy it is to issue
orders that under no circumstances shall
one automobile pass another in the cir
Gle. This will compel them to travel In
single hle and the people VIII know
what to depend upon and how TO govern
themselves in crossing.
II am sure you do not realize the
amount of traffic passing over this race
track every day.
"Only a couple Of days ago / stood In
the door Of the monument and counted
1O5 automobiles in Ave minutes, equal to
], ,265 an hour. Nothing special, just the
ordinary every day traffic.
Il would rather assault fort any day
than TO cross the street to or from
the monument. Just at this time Circle
street is no mans land when every
driver Is a law INTO himself-and 1t Is
time that the authorities should set up
some kind OF government in It,
Very truly yours
"ORAN PERRY"
How deeply the Civil war veterans

Tanpico Oil
Tangle Held
Very Complex

Mexico City, Nov. L. The Tam
pico oil tangle is one of the most
complicated in the world. Such a
riddle as to property rights could
exist, probably, in no other country
than Mexico.
The trouble is not entirely due
to Article 27 of the new constitu-
ton, which shakes the value of IT,
| ties and leases that have cost many
millions. In fact, the most vigor-
Gus controversy is over the conces-
sions granted by President Carran-
"a to some of his generals and
| friends.
These concessions to enrich a
few were made while the radical
Article 81 and 123 were being
| framed.
Carranza found that an old law
| of Mexico reserved ninety feet on
| the banks of rivers as national
property, and he gave his friends
oil rights on these narrow strips
along the streams in the oil region.
Until the concessions We're made,
I the oil companies believed that
they were owners of the oil rights,
| and the appearance of the new
| claimants caused an uproar.
As many of the greatest oil
wells are close to the banks of the
Tancochlin and the Panuco rivers,

Part of her duties must be the
management of the house to which

fairs.
They don't like 1t bit.
And in any management for
which she is responsible she must

I'm many respects she can dis
play her activities beneficially, but
there is nothing to be gained by as
sertiveness.
"She drops into her place just as
naturally as she does in married
life. The old adage speak when

are called is entirely applicable.
There is no excuse for a lady
mayoress pushing herself forward

to speak they will ask you quickly
enough.

the Carranza concessions were
enormously valuable, and both the
holders of the concessions and the
oil men, who thought that their
rights were benign invaded, were
disposed to fight.
This struggle has been going on
under the shadow of Article 27, un-
de (which the Mexican government
can do almost anything with the oil
properties.
Uphold Concessions.
Z When Carranza was driven from
power there was hope among the
oil men that the new government
would declare the Carranza conces-
sions void, but instead the govern
ment has upheld the concessions.
It has also added a new ,compli-
cation by proposing to take its rev.
enue in oil instead of money, so as
ito keep part of the oil in Mexico.
The payments made to the MeM-
can government range from 5 to 10
per cent of the value of the oil.
This means that as matters stand
The government would get between
IS and 10 per cent of tie oil, but the
governments share would be Is
per cent under certain conditions.

The lew Kelly Show"

Lew Kelly will return to the Ma
jestic theatre next Monday at the
head of his own 1.-The Lew Kelly
Show" The name was on the wheel
last year., but that is the only old
thing about this years production.
Jack Singer, after the close of last
years record breaking season, got
busy on a new show for his star and
he has succeeded in writing a book
that is perfectly fitted to the peculiar
dope character interpreted by Kelly.
The audience gets its first laugh in
"The Broadway Follies," a little
sketch that is built around Kelly's
character and filled with laughable
situations. The second vehicle is
entitled The Mexican Borders" and
as the name implies it is a satire on
the country revolutions. The sec
end act finds Kelly at his best In
THE Dream Man" 1t is in this
burletta that he gets his big chance.
The story is light. and is con-
structed merely for laughing pur-
poses.
''The Lew Kelly Show" Is the
equal of any of the big musical
shows that have played Broadway,
New York, in fact many critics have
stamped 1t as much better than the
majority of those attractions that
have played at much higher prices.
