in Richmond for Tourney

Entertainment for large number of
the basketball boys Of this district
will be furnished by members of the
Rotary club according to the action
taken by them at their meeting Tues
day noon in the X. of P. building.
Jerome Bentley, superintendent of
the city schools, presented the propo-
sition and the Rotarians entered into
the idea readily 1t was pointed out
that he hotel facilities of the city
we're such that it would be impossible
for the boys who would be here enter
ing in the tournament to be adequate
ly cared for.
Arrangements for backing the dis
trict tournament in every respect are
being made by the club. Men of the
club expressed the hope that this
years tournament would be the most
successful ever conducted here. and if
the plans of the club go through they
will have much to do with the making
of the tournament.

ton at Evansville Monday and Tues

MAINTENANCE FUND
OF 100000 FOR
ROADS, MORAY IDEA
(By Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. Ex-Governor
McCray's program of road improve
ment throughout the state will call for
the creation by the state highway
commission of a maintenance fund of
100000 a year, which sum would be
used annually in the repair of roads
throughout the state.
In addition the governor has inform
ed legislators that he proposes that
state funds shall match the annual APP
preparations granted by the federal
government, for road building. The
program, it is estimated by state Of
ficials, would call for the annual ex-
penditure of $4,000, 900 or more, on the
roads of the state.
Opposes 10 Cent Levy.
The proposed 10 cent tax levy for
the highway commission is opposed by
Governor McCray, who today told
visitors on the grounds of economy
alone, he did not believe the tax levy
for roads should exceed cents on
each 800 of taxables. The levy last
year was SO cents, but the governor
is inclined to have this increased, say
ing that he believes better mainten-
ance of the roads should be provided
by the state.
The question of fixing the state levy
for raising road funds will be left to
the state tax board, but the governor s
program calls for the legislature en-
acting new road legislation that will
provide for n patrol system to main
tain the highways in good repair.

Work of Chamber of Commerce
is Pushed by Corps of Workers

Persons making up the member
prospect committee of the Richmond
chamber of commerce worked "over-
time" Monday afternoon and evening
in order to insure that their part of
the work would go over in scheduled
time. The committee met at $3.50
O'Clock in the afternoon, held a con-
tinous session until 5 o'clock, then,
when they found the lists they were
making up had not been completed,
they took their work home with them
finishing it during the evening.
That the work of making the
chamber of commerce felt as a civic
institution will suffer no "let-up' from
now on is indicated by the fact that
a force of stenographers is busily en-
gagged in the office handling the pre-
liminary correspondence.
Industry Goes to Waste
This community is carrying on it's
biggest industry. taking the raw ma
terial, developing it for years, turn.
ing out the finished product, and then
forgetting to take advantage of the
existence of this industry" said Frank
Chaffee, secretary of the chamber OF
commerce, Tuesday. II refer to the
schools, Richmond schools turn out
finished graduates every year and
these. graduates seek opportunities in
other cities because there have been
none provided at home"
"This will be one of the factors
the chamber of commerce will seek
to eliminate. By taking away the
temptation of distance, the younger
element will be encouraged to remain
in Richmond. and contribute their
energy to the PROCESS of the city"
Another discussion of the chamber
of commerce from the standpoint OF
the business men was furnished Tues
day when one of Richmond'S best

"The new chamber of commerce is
purely a business proposition from

TELEPHONE COMPANY
REQUESTS A CHANGE
IN UTILITY STATUTE

INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. 15-At the re

resentative James Knapp extending
until July 1, 1923. the time in which
public utilities may elect to surrender

OF the public utilities act.
The action of the local telephone

Regulates Other Utilities.
Many utilities over the state nt
have franchises in which rates are
stipulated, it is said. This gives the
a decided advantage over other ut
