HOT CAMPAIGN IS
 ON IN MERIDIAN

Meridian, Miss, November B. Special )-In opposition to building a light and power plant to be owned and operated by the municipality, $600,00 bond issue already having been voted for the purpose, Mayor John w Parker, Councilman J. A. Covington and Councilman J. M. Slaughter, have addressed a communi- cation to the people of Meridian fla voring ratification of an agreement entered into between the city coun- cil and the Meridian Light and Rail way company owners for the ap- pointment of a board of directors composed of seven men. three ap- pointed by the council, three by the company. the seventh and presiding officer of the board being the mayor of Meridian, to operate the property. The election for ratification or re- jection of the agreement Is to be held December g, and there Is a red-hot campaign on for and against the prop osition, with the final result In doubt at this time. In their communication favoring ratification of the agree ment the mayor and members Of the council state that should the issue of $600,000 of bonds voted for mu- nicipal light and power plant be sold, the city's borrowing capacity would be exhausted, leaving the municipali- ty without authority to issue bonds for any purpose, not even a hospital, school building, sanitary sewer, street or sidewalk paving, all of which they say are greatly needed at the pres ent time; that the issuance of the bonds and the building of competi- tive plant means, not only long ana expensive fight, but the probable loss to the city of a gas plant and street railway, both of which properties are owned by the Meridian Light and Railway companq. They further say that in the opinion of the council It is safer to experiment with the Meridian Light and Railway companys money ana the help of their experts, by means of the proposed directorate than to experiment with the peoples money ana have the Meridian Light and Railway company and their ex- perts on the other side of the table playing the game against the munlcl- pality. The official communication concludes by calling on voters to think soberly about the matter ana vote according to their convictions as the election is one or the most lm- portant ever held in Meridian and the responsibility for what may hap pen is squarely up to the voters ana that it is sincerely hoped there will be no mistake made.

WAR COST ITALY
67,OO0,OOO,OOO LIRE
Figure Given By Statisticians,
However, Does Not Include
Many Expenses.

Italian statisticians have just ar
rived at the total cost of the war
to Italy.
The figure is placed at 67.6oo, ,oOo,-
600 lire. although this Is admittedly
far below the complete cost.
The figure was arrived at by ind
ing the difference between the ex-
penditures of the Italian ministry OF
war and the ministry OF marine for
the period beginning August l. 1914.
and ending December 81. 1920. and
the expenditures OF the two minis
tries for the preceding correspond
ing period OF peace conditions.
During this peace period the two
ministries spent a total Of $780,
0oo, 900 lire. while the total eXpen-
ditures for the war period men,
toned above were 74,30o, 100000 lire.
According to Italian statisticians
however. the difference of 67.sOO.-
900. 900 lire still lacks about 20 pei
cent of what the war cost Italy. be-
cause. in addition to the money
actually spent for war material. the
maintenance of the army and navy
other derivative expenses have been
thrown on to the government, such
as the war pensions and assistance
to the families of the mobilized.
With this additional 90 per cent
added to the actual war expenses
the total cost of the war to Italy
would. therefore, reach approx
mately $1,000. 900. 900 lire.

Here is a set of rules for truck
drivers on the care of solid and
pneumatic truck tires formulated
by the technical department of the
United states Tire Company for the
beneft of truck owners:
All truck tires have load limit
Constant. slight or occasional heavy
overloads shorten tire life.
Distribute the load in the truck
body so each tire will bear its pro-
portionate share Of the weight car
ried-
When applying and dismounting
pneumatic truck tires, flap and tube
must ht properly and casing at
properly on rim.
Know-don't guess-your infla
ton pressure Proper initiation
pressure is as important as proper
loads and speeds.
Running in car tracks causes
tires to break down early. Avoid
car tracks.
Check your wheel alignment

Trim off loose slivers of solid tires
Mend the small and repair the large
cuts in pneumatic tires
Chains and other antiskid device,
injure tires Use chains only wher
necessary and apply them loosely.
Turn corners slowly to prevent
tire strains. Apply power anc
brakes gradually to avoid useless
spinning or locking Of wheels.
Tires are cut or scraped occasion
ally by bent tenders when th'
loaded truck travels over rougi
places.
Tires are limited in shock absorb

on rough or rutty roads will reduce

Oyerspeeding a tire has the SAM
harmful effect as overlooking. Keel
