COMMISSIONERS
SHOULD BE CAREFUL

Editor Star: Last Sept smber put
this question to each of our county
commissioners:
"What has it cost Marion county
for the work the state road depart
ment has done on the Dixie High
way?"
Each one of the commissioners an
swered, 81 don't know"
These figures are taken from the
auditors report on the state road de-
partment made to our governor March
IL, 1921.
The balance due Marion county on
county road vehicle fund Dec. 81, 1920,
was $6,722.40. By adding the 1921
tax from the same fund the state
road department is due Marion county
about $4,000, besides we paid taxes Of
two mills for state road purposes for
two years, making Marion county
short about 100000.
The charges against US for the
work done in this county by the state
road department on Dixie Highway is
as follows:
Equipment cost ........$ 1,4O3.07
Engineering, cost .... 3,964.14
Construction cost .... 11,679.94
1928 days convict labor. 13,S56.00
Total .....,......$ 30,9O3.l5
The $30,903.15 that we tax payers
paid to the state road department for
the work done on the Dixie Highway
was The most extravagant road work
ever done in this county, and should
the state road department finish this
road and like extravaganza prevail,
the bond issue of $504, 900 would build
but a short distance of the road.
A comparison of cost of road con-
struction in Marion county under con-
troll of county civil engineer with
the state road expenses, proves that
the board of county commissioners
should know before they turn this
work over to the state road board the
exact amount the state road board
viii spend.
A careful study of the state audi
tors report to our governor justifes
me in saying county commissioners
be sure you know what you are doing
before you turn our board monies
over to the state road department.
Yours truly, L. S. Light.

MONDAY, APRIL rs, 1921.

The village trustees and local
editor in Mddebury are quarreling
over a question of publicity ethics.
The editor insists upon attending
the trustees meetings and printing
their deliberations, while the trustees
frown upon once popular, but sub
sequently abandoned, maxim of "open

ether words, the Middlebury officials
prefer to sit behind closed doors and
then later, if they so elect, to publish
such parts Of their proceedings as
they believe should reach the public.
From this distance it is not possible
lat this writing to forecast the result
at Middlebury; and The Banner
having in mind what happened once
tic. "a, great American statesman in

the race suicide, or birth control, ele-
ment of her sex, for she has intro

four children The incident might
have been allowed to pass without
comment, provided the women attend

very likely pigeon-hole Mrs. John

with Christian sentiment. One can

CONSIDERS BIDS
ON EQUIPMENT
Sanitary Engineer Has Prices
on Materials for Sewage

Of hospital beds. Early in the fall,
arrangements were made with the Robert
Long Hospital to take cars of four chill
dren a month, but very often the
hospital was so crowded that even this
small number could not be admitted.

st. Francis Hospital at Beech Grove
very kindly offered to take care of the
children for a very small hospital fee.
Some Of the best nose and throat special
lists in the city volunteered their services
