LOUISVILLE COLONELS MAJ TRAIN NEXT SPRING IN CITY
PARTY LEADERS WATCHING THE
ELECTIONS BEING HELD TODAY
While This Is an "Off Year" in
National Politics Great Inter-
est Manifested in Results.

NEW YORK, Nov 7.-Election day
tomorrow marks an "off year" in ma
tionaI politics.
Only one state, Virginia, elects a
governor. and there are but few other
statewide contests of any sort. Lead
ers OF the two major parties however,
are watching closely the result of these
few state and numerous municipal
elections in an effort to determine the
drift of popular sentiment to aid them
in preparing for the congressional cleo
tions next year.
New York elects a judge of the court
of appeals. two state senator's and a
new assembly. New Jersey elects a
new lower house Of the legislature and
six state senator's, the executive cam
paign there having been based on the
so-called wet and dry issue in con-
nection with the enforcement of state
laws. Maryland voters
win chose a state comptroller, a new
lower house OF the Legislature and APP
half of the senate, while
those of Pennsylvania elect a new JUS
tice to the supreme court.
Municipal elections will be held in
several states, one OF the most imp0r-
tant being that in New York City,
where the mayoralty incumbent, John
f. Hylan, democrat, is opposed by
Henry II. Curran, republican, running
on coalition ticket
Voters OF New York state also will
vote on seven constitutional amend
ments. the principal one being that
giving war veterans preferences in civil
service appointments
There are no statewide elections in
the west.

CHICAGO MILLIONAIRE
BUYS CATALINA ISLAND

If fortune had been very kind to
you and you had wads and wads of
money and stocks and bonds and
blocks and tracks of valuable real es-
tate scattered here and there, and
you had in fact, pretty much of ev-
erything that gold Will buy to make
you happy, would youyearn for some
thing else?
William wrigley, Jr., the Chicago
multi-millionaire and sportsman was
Just such a darling of good fortune.
Yet he wanted something more. 1t
was an Island in the Pacific ocean.
Not a little toy affair with a few
houses, a boat landing. a few trees
and containing some scattered acres,
on the contrary, a small empire in
itself. being rs miles long, 9 miles
wide and containg $4,000 acres of
some of the most picturesque noun
tain scenery in the world.
Mr.. Wrigley talked about his is
land of wonders. or rather Santa Cat
alma island, to use its full name, in
much the same matter of fact way
that a proud suburbanite would tell
of a new home he had but recently
purchased.
About two years ago | found hat
l could obtain Catalina Island at an
advantageous price" Mr.. Wrigley
said. IL was interested In a banking
deal which involved buying the prop
erty at what seemed to be a reason
able figure. l took the owners up on
their offer and a few millions of dol
lars changed hands. I didn't get to
inspect my property for six weeks,
but l knew that l had not bought a
pig in apoke. l was delighted with my
buy and have been more and more
pleased every day 1 am here to enjoy
it..
when | have completed a long
list of improvements and have the Is
land laid out according to plans that
will take several years for their exc
cution, l expect to make it a play
ground for the West. 1t will become
a Riviera of the Pacific, but it will be
distinctly an American Riviera cater
ing to Americans desiring American
amusements.
Last year the payroll OF the is
lands hotels, boarding houses, camps,
fishing enterprises, furniture factory
and amusement concessions was
~$980,000. The islands population
at the height of the Summer
was 10000. Quite a beatty business
proposition involved in Catalina"

sTABILIzINc LIBERTY BONDS

A plan for a new ISSUE Oh Gofcfh-
ment bonds as a method Of restoring
Liberty bonds to par and keeping
them there, put forward by NJ. w.
THOMPSON. chairman OF the War
Credits Board, is certain to be given
wide attention and careful consider
alton. Many tersons who willingly
and egarly underwent hardships dur
ing the war through the purchase OF
Liberty bonds, only to find them
greatly discounted a few years later,
will be especially interested in the
new scheme, says the Salt Lake Tri-
bune.
There are outstanding almost TWEEN
ty billion dollars (par) of Liberty
Bonds, including the Victory notes,
and their market value to-day is
something like two billion dollars less
than the subscribers paid for them.
According to current dispatches,
Mr.. Thompson's view is that the re-
financing and consolidation of the
public debt should be preceded by the
restoration aud continuation of pub
lac condolences, and that this is i'm
possible without restoring Liberty
bonds to par.
The security of the Liberty bonds
for payment OF principal and interest
when due is the best in the world, yet
they are selling far below par, Mr..
Thompson points out. The sole rea-
son for that is, that their interest
rate is too low for the present mar
ket, he thinks. The like is true of
great numbers Of long-term bonds Is
sued years ago when interest rates
we're lower. Thus the only way to
keep long-term bonds Of undoubted
security constantly at par is to keep
their interest rate continually ON a
parity with the comparable market
interest rate.
The essentials of the new plan may
be stated as follows:
Create an issue Of bonds having an
adjustable interest rate that shall be
predetermined semi-annually in ad-
vance to correspond with the market
rate of money invested without haz-
ard; those bonds will always be worth
par.
The plan more in detail will be as
follows:
1t is proposed to create a new
series of United States consolidated
bonds to the total authorized amount
of, say, 100000 900. These
bonds shall run, say, from twenty to
fifty years. They shall bear no fixed
rate of interest, but shall state on
their face hat the interest to be paid
for each half-yearly period shall be
fixed ana proclaimed for such period
by the treasury in advance, at the
rate per cent that, in the opinion OF
the Federal Reserve Board, represents
the then market earning power of the
money invested without hazard. The
coupons shall contain similar provis-
ions. and as each in turn falls due ii
will be paid in the amount previously
set, which will have been announced
in the financial columns Of the pa
pers.
