KENTUCKY EDUCATIONAL
LEAGUE WRITES J. G. SEARS

Louisville, Ky, April 25, 1921.
Mr.. j. c. Sears,
Bryants Store, Ky.
Dear Sir: -
Your cooperation with the Ken
lucky Educational League Is very
much appreciated and will be pro-
ductive of good results, we are sure.
Our specific objective at present
as outlined in bulletins that have
already reached you or will reach
you, is to urge upon the Kentucky
Senators and Congressman the great
need of passing at as early date
as possible the SmithTowner edu-
cational bill. which has been report
ed out favorably and will come up
either at this special session Of Con-
gress or at the regular session.
Replies from all Congressman
show them to be either for the bill
or hesitant about taking a definite
stand until they are thoroly CONVEX
SAINT with the situation. Two have
confessed they never read the bill.
For your information, therefore,
as a member of the League in your
county and community, we are work
ing Systematically under the follow
ing plan: -
Each member is expected to
personally urge the Senator or Con-
gresham named below 10 vnte for
the bill and reeuss: him to ieply
''yes" or ''ho," Tha letter uaed be
only feaf or Apa lines. but shows

!assA, seciai. patriotic or church as
ISOLATION, will personally urge as
many others to do likewise as his
or her time may permit. Until the
bill is brought to a vote and passed
we want this work of letter writing
kept up, since nothing will better in
dicate to a public official popular
demand than the voice of his own
constituents.
OF the two Kentucky Senators,
Hon. Richard p. Ernst of Covington,
has given assurance of his support.
1t is therefore unnecessary to write
him unless you care to send him a
letter of appreciation.
| Senator A. o. Stanley, Henderson,
Ky, should be addressed at the Sem
ate, Washington. d. c. He has not
satisfactorily assured us Of his sup
port, tho writing that he would give
the measure careful consideration"
Your Congressman, Hon. ]. NJ.
Robsion, is for the bill and 1t is
therefore unnecessary to write to
him.
| AS we are concentrating all educa-
tional forces in this State just now
on this particular measure the above
is all that is necessary in the way of
work and your time will not be
called upon otherwise for meetings
or conventions.
Each county and community has
the privilege of organizing local
branches of this League if desired,
but it is unnecessary as the League
is merely the clearinghouse for in
formation and activity of many 9TH
er educational movements. .-.
| Cordially,
.. Kentucky Educational League,

The capitol building of West Virginia

A laborer was killed and several fire
men were injured, one seriously, when

The building was of brick construc

fire broke out on the Lee street sid
and within half an hour two floors of
that wing were a mass of flames.
Fire Spreads Quickly.
All the fire companies in the city
were called to the capitol, which
stands in a park directly across tn
street from the executive mansion.
The fire started on the third floor
just above the senate chamber and IL

Detroit to Ask Change
inLaFolIette Seamens Act

(By Associated Press.)
DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 4.-Claims of
various shipping companies operating
vessels on the Great Lakes that the
Lafollette seaman's act has worked a
distinct hardship to lake carriers dur
ing the past year. has prompted the
Inland Waterways committee of the
Detroit Board of Commerce to begin
a study of the situation, with the idea
of seeking relief from congress. Com
mercial organizations of Cleveland.
Chicago, Milwaukee and other large
lake ports will be asked to cooperate,
it is said.
According to local navigation COM
pany heads, the seaman's act makes it
necessary that lake boats carry larger
crews and more life-boats than are
required in lake shipping. This cuts
the number Of passengers and the
volume Of freight that may be carried,
and reduces income of navigation
companies, it is asserted. An effort
will be made to have the act amend
ed as it affects Great Lakes shipping,
if in the opinion of committee mem
bers, the study of the situation war.
rants such step.
The committee also will continue its
campaign for direct route from the
Great Lakes to the Atlantic via the
ST. Lawrence during the coming year,
it is announced.

The committee is being formed in the

George went on will want to cut the

cut down the cigar bill, and the men

in the pu.lic expenditure. But it is
essential, if the nation is to recover,
that there should be rigid, duthless
