attempted to teach the New Orleans
Black Sox, the original colored bali
club of the South, how to conduct a

The game was all in all a good one,
with plenty of hitting and lots Of
grand stand playing. James, the
burly Tiger backstop, bumped triple

round trip in the same direction.

TO TEST GASOLINE
Oil Inspector Begins Drive on
Filling Stations.
To Lock Pumps Which Register
Short Measure.

State Oil Inspector H. H. Motter and
seven deputies today qualified as depu-
ties under the state board of health
for enforcement of the weights and
measures act The move marks open
ing of new drive on the filling sta
tions.
Armed with standard measures the
state oil inspectors today began in
spection of filling stations. They will
test the amount of gasoline and oil
sold thru the pumps. Where short
measure pump is registered, it will be
marked condemned" by the repre-
sentative of the state department and
business at that station will be sus-
pended until standard pump is in
stalled.
Drive Follows Recent Probe.
The new drive on the filling stations
followed a recent move by Inspector
Motter regarding quality of oil and
gasoline sold. Motter recently in
stalled a laboratory in connection with
his offices in the state house and de-
creed that samples of all gasoline and
oil shipped in Kansas would be tested
in his immediate office. This an
nouncement brought CONSERVATION to
many inspectors who had formerly
submitted the refinery reports to the
state department and drawn monthly
pay checks.
Now Motter proposes to follow his
quality tests with standard gauge
test. He stated today that he expected
to put q lock on every oil and gasoline
pump in Kansas which registers short
measure.

Harding observed the opening of the

phatic warning to the government
bureaus in Washington that the full
force of the administration is back
ing up Charles G. Dawes in his ef-
forts to create a budgetary system
which will curtail the enormous ex-
penditures of other years.
He warned too, that there may be
rough spots ahead on the road to
economy which he has pledged his
administration to follow, but he left
no doubt in the minds of the budget
representatives that General Dawes
has the unlimited backing OF the
White House in any steps he may
take.

WHAT Is THE MATTER?

WHAT Is THE mAYIEtty
Topekans trained in conservative
salesmanship and held in respect and
confidence in the community are run
ming up against disbursement in the
sale of stock for the new hotel.
This is not a happy fact to admit
but it is true.
What is the matter?
1t is most apparent. from the argu-
ments that the statesmen meet, that
the trouble lies not in the question of
the necessity for modern hotel but
in the fact that without a chosen site
the statesmen have nothing to SELL"
Scores of patriotic citizens-men
with financial means-have refused
to subscribe owing to the reports of
deals" and bargains in sites.
These reports have become common
talk along Kansas avenue and the ho-
tel proposition has suffered severely
on that account.
If this keeps up Topeka will de-
velop a town row instead of a new
hotel.
AS one man said the other day: 'It
is just like trying to sell oil stock with
the provision that the company is
undecided as to drilling in North Da-
kota or Texas"
There are three sites given leading
consideration-Ninth and Kansas
avenue, Fifth and Kansas avenue and
Seventh and Jackson.
What have these sites to offer?
Owners Of the Ninth street prop
erty-the original hotel promoters in
Topeka-have been reported as offer
ing to appraise their property at
fair and square value and taking this
amount out in common stock in case
that corner is selected. 1t is reported
also that the owners of this corner
will rustic out and sell 100000 in
additional stock. At Seventh and
Jackson and at Fifth and Kansas it
is rumored that the owners will sub
scribe to the entire issue of common
stock in case the proper selection is
made to satisfy their interests.
The salesmen are running up
against another stone wall in their
attempts to explain why the city's big
interests are -ot subscribing.
IF this stock is such a good prop
osition why don't the big fellows buy
it?" is heard on every hand.
This Is a natural question. The fo-
tel enthusiasts cannot expect q hotel
to be built by the small investors If
they are not giver the proper conf
dence in the subscriptions of the heavy
investor.
1t is unfortunate that the attempts
to fill Topeka's most vital need have
been stone-walled against problems
of this kind.
There is wave of discomfort over
the city in connection with the sale of
hotel stock. For the best Interests IF
all it is best to admit this fact right
now. flushing unrest with silence IS
not the right means of cleansing the
city's civic system of poison. Better
that we air our grievances and hasten
to compromise and agreement.
To bridge over the difficulties it is
best to remove the driftwood that is
lodging against the pilings. The
problems of the site and the heavy
investor loom today.
Out into the open, men, out into
the open!
Topeka is alive with proud citizens
who are anxious to assist in the con-
struction of hotel. Don't let their
minds be clouded with doubt and
suspicion.
Swat the bug under the chips!
