DISCHARGES ARE REPRODUCED.
Photographic Copy Is Made by Adju-
tant General.

More than 5000 discharges Of kan
sas ex-service men have been repro
duced by the photo-copying machine
in the office of C. I. Martin, adjutant
general. Two copies are made of each
discharge. One is furnished to the
soldier for his use, and the other re-
tanned in the files of the adjutant gen.
erals office for permanent record.
Upon return from service in Europe
numerous Kansans presented their dis
charges to registers of deeds request
ing that their discharges be recorded
in order that true copies might be OBJ
tanned in case the originals are lost.
The attorney general rendered an
opinion that recording of The dis
charges in the office of register of
deeds was not authorized by law.
The 1919 legislature then passed a
bill, proposed by Adjutant General
Martin. providing for filing of copies
of discharges in the adjutant general S
office. Approximately one out of ten
service men so far have taken ad-
vantage of the law.

Are the people of Topeka
exercising their right to
rule as was intended by the
founders of the constitution
of the United States?
Why should city execu-
tives disregard this inherent
right Of the people?
There are three major of
fees in Topeka which are
of vital Importance to every
man. and woman. Our laws
vest in the mayor the power
to appoint these officers. Is
this in accord with the de-
sires of the thinking man
and woman who, under the
present system, have no
voice in naming these execu-
tives?
Even the most casual OBJ
server cannot fail to realize
that these appointments are
ordinarily made under the
pressure of political obliga-
ton. Hence the public must
accept what is handed it
frequently to its sorrow.
In my candid opinion, the
civic bodies of Topeka,
rather than a single individ-
ual, are better equipped to
name the chief of police. 1t
is my judgment that the To-
peka members of the Shaw
nee County Bar association
know best who is qualified
to be city attorney and po-
lice judge. And it is upon
these principles that l come
before the people Of Topeka
as a candidate for mayor.
/ come unfettered by obliga-
tions for political assistance
and l mean to remain that
way. My only obligations
shall be to the voters who
elect me.
Il is not with any desire
to side-step the responsible
ties of appointments that l
make this request of our
civic bodies and attorneys,
but because l contend that
greater efficiency and econ
ony in city government can
be obtained by this method
rather than by the domino
ton Of an individual paying
off his prediction promises.
If elected mayor, / will ap-
point for these Offices the
executives named in the
manner explained above,
thus giving the citizens of
Topeka a government by the
people.
Why should not every
candidate for mayor name
the men, if he intends to ap-
point them himself, whom
he has in mind for these
Offices, In order that the vot-
ers may not be kept in the
dark until after election?
IF you believe in the prin-
ciples ! have explained, l

posing a deficiency appropriation of
$50,o00,000 for the shipping board.
Senator King, Democrat of Utah.
charged in the senate today that the
management of the boards affairs
was in the hands of incompetent
men hostile to the sale of govern
ment ships because that would put
their jobs out of existence"
The senator declared that in five
years the shipping board and the
emergency fleet corporation had spent
approximately $1,000 900, 900.
What have we got for it," he
asked.
Some 400 wooden ships useless
seven concrete ships, also useless and
1900 steel ships of doubtful value"
The senator attacked what he
termed the boards policy of allocat-
ing ships to operators instead of
chartening them to agents. He
charged that the operators did not
invest a dollar and that obviously
their profits have been enormous"
He said he could not call the policy
dishonest, but added
1T looks bad to mo and I don't
think congress ought to condone it,
Chairman Warren of the appro-
priations committee said that the
government had invested SO deeply
In the shipping business, that cit
