BUILDERS DID WORK WELL
Roof of Westminster Hall, London, Is a Wonderful Piece of Expert
 CarpenteFing.

A party of members of the Royal Institute of British Architects re- gently inspected the renovation of Westminster hall roof.
 Sir Frank Baines of the office of works explained the progress of the renovation and pointed out the glories of the old roof, which he de- scribed as wonderful carpentry, agreeing with others who have writ ten of the roof as remarkable alike for the beauty and the ingenuity of its construction, says the London Times. Apparently there was not single nail used, nor metal plate nor 8 bolt.
 The ravages of the minute para site called zestobium were ex- plained. Such was the care exer- cised by the old builders, said Sir F. Baines, and the excellent quality of the oak selected that dry rot was practically nil, although there was much decay. Only the marvellous ac- curacy of the design in every detail enabled the enormous pressures to be resisted and saved the roof from falling.
 
 For the benefit of posterity, it was added, many water-color drawings to scale have been made of the de- tails of the roof. It was only natural that there should be requests for some of the old wood to ta made into snuff boxes and other souvenirs. For various reasons these could not be gratifed. The wood will be sent to great museums all over the world.

KHAN PROPOSALS

,Lynchburg, Va, March 16-Busi-
ness and professional men this after
noon held a meeting to develop ways
and means of combating the organi-
cation for the local branch of the Ku-
Klux Khan, which according to paid
advertisements appearing in local pa
pers, is now organizing in Lynchburg.
The Khan is said to have been char
tered under the laws of Georgia.
Statements opposing the forming
of the Khan here were afterward is
sued by United States Senator Carter
Glass, Judge Frank P. Christian Of
the corporation court, Mayor Fred
Harper, Major Harry Holt, command
er of Lynchburg Post, American Le-
gion, Commemorative Attorney Rob
ert D. Yancey and others.
Senator Glass said:
81 should be very much amazed if
there are to be found inLynchburg
many persons who are simple enough
to respond to the invitation to waste
their time and energy in anything SO
mischievous."
Other officials who issued state
ments declared there was no reason
for the forming of Khan here, and
Judge Christian said its secret activ.
tiles would "foster race prejudices
which sooner or later would break Out
in disregard for law"
Commonwealth Attorney Yancey
said he did not know whether there
was any legal remedy against the
Khan, but denounced it as "a mora
wrong which cannot be justified"

NEWS CONTEST TO
CONE To A CLOSE
NEXT WEDNEs DAY

Next Wednesday evening at 8
o'clock the craftsmanship campaign
which the News has been conducting
for the last few weeks, will come to
a close and the seven handsome prizes
will be awarded the following Satur-
day afternoon, this time being taken
by the judges to check over the rec
ords, inspect the returns of each con-
testant and make the awards.
The management suggested an ex-
tension of one week in the time for
closing the contest beyond that orig
inally set, due to the fact that it was
found necessary to make an entire
change in the management of the
contest. There was some objection
to this extension, and in order to
abide strictly by the original plans
and regulations it was decided to end
on the date originally decided on.
There has been a considerable
change in the relative standing of
the contestants within the last few
days and those who have been well
in the lead should not let up in their
efforts, as there may be many sur
prises. Taking advantage of the fl
nal bonus, which ends Saturday even
ing at 8 o'clock, will mean a great
deal in the end. Those who delay
turning in their subscriptions until
the last hour will find that they will
gain a great deal more by turning
them in this Saturday and taking ad-
vantage of the 10000 extra votes that
are offered.

CITIZENS TO VOTE ON
BOND ISSUE TO BUY
WATER PLANT
Continued from Page u

will also be decided whether or not
only tax payers will be allowed to
vote in the election, and it may be
necessary to vote on two different
amounts, one providing for the act
ual purchase price and consolidation
cost and the other providing for these
two items with $4,000 additional for
filtration, metering and softening
equipment.
Indicating the cost of consolidation
Captain Randolph submitted alterna-
tive suggestions, indicating mini
mum amount of cost and a maximum
for some improvements that would
not be imperative. His plan provides
for the moving of the entire equip
ment of the present pumping plant
to the site of the old pumping plant,
making one overhead. The two
standpipes could be connected, but
this is not necessary. As the water
supply from either plant at present
is not adequate to meet the city's
needs, and as the boring of additional
wells at the new plant would mean
necessity for additional reservoirs,
the report recommends the piping of
all water needed from the new plant
to the old plant by gravitation, us
ing the hard water only in emergen-
cies when the supply from the old
plant is not sufficient.
Tests of fusing of the two waters
have been made by the state Board
of Health, the result being entirely
satisfactory, the degree to which the
hard water is softened being the same
as the amount of the soft water add.
ed to it. 1t is believed by Captain
Randolph that it will seldom be ne.
cessary to use any of the hard water
except for fire purposes. The items
of cost of consolidation, actually ne.
cessary, are estimated by Captain
Randolph as follows:
Connecting of two sys-
TENS at Morris and Kirby

A SPECTACLE FOR AMERICANS

What a spectacle for this country
George Sylvester Vierick, former ed
itor of the Fatherland, heading del
egation of German-American citizens,
emerging from a conference with
Preident-elect Harding with the state
ment that I'VE may look forward not
only to an immediate, but just and
equitable peace with Germany"
Upon what did Mr.. Vierick base his
confidence that the next administra-
ton would take such action as can be
interpreted only as betrayal by
America of it's allies and associates
in the late war, deserving them in
their efforts to execute the Versailles
treaty with Germany and setting up
a different arrangement with the ma
ton so recently the enemy of the
American soldier boy?
For Americans who think in terms
of America and who have not forgot
ten the sacrifices of blood and treas
ure made to subdue Germany, this
prospect of a separate peace is not a
pleasant one. Mr.. Vierick, while at
times a windy talker, probably had
more than air on which to fasten his
prediction. He has also the recollec-
ton that many G. o. P. senator's, dur
ing the treaty debates, recommended
a separate peace and that there are
strong limitations that Mr.. Harding
will wait only to warm the presiden-
tial chair before recommending a SIM
liar measure.
1t will not be long, now, until the
American people reap the full harvest
from last November's sowing-a har-
vest that may sicken the sturdy
American boys who went to France
to join with the other enemies of Ger
many in her subjugation and to re-
main comrades of their allies at least
until the terms of the peace were ex-
ecuted and made good.

Necessary cost of consolidation, min

Following the decision Of council to
put the matter squarely up to the
people, Captain J. D. Points, mama
ger for the Palatka Waterworks Co.,
said that he had been advised by Gen.
Wheeler, president of the company,
that whenever matters assumed such
shape that purchase of the plant was
possibility that he would come to
Palatka to confer with council or any
committees authorized to negotiate.
1t is believed that the figures of
$4,000 quoted to council some
months ago will be materially reduc-
ed when it is seen that the city is in
earnest about making the purchase
and has provided the necessary ma
chinery for consummating the deal.

a year. more than $4,000 per-
mlts were issued in the state. This
number, Mr.. Weber said, was aug
mented by necessity for more than
one permit to be issued for n fire.
He explained this point by stating
that permits were usually good for
only a few days, at the end of which
tlme renewal was necessary.
/. During 1920 fifty arrests were made
by h department for failure to abide
by the burning aw. Leniency was
granted a majority of these cases
when the accused pleaded ignorance
