Eastern Kansas was favored with
fine rains last Saturday and Sunday
that totalled from one to two inches in
the northeast counties, and near half
an inch in the southeast, but most of
the central and western counties are
still very dry. according to reports of
100 correspondents of the weather
bureau. The fine Indian summer
weather continued the fore part of the
week, with temperatures averaging
several degrees above normal. On the
2Ith there was a rather severe freeze
in the western counties, which resulted
in very little damage. however as
most crops had matured and, owing to
the extreme dry weather.. frost did not
form sufficiently to kill tender vegeta-
tion, such as tomato vines, some of
which are still green.
Wheat was greatly benefited where
the rains fell. and is looking fine in
the eastern section. In the western
half and the north-centraI counties as
far east as Clay and Marshall, it is
showing the effects of Nthe drought
rather badly. From Ford and Lane
counties west most of the seed is sti!l
lying in dust, where it was sown sew
eral weeks ago, while in the north
western counties, where seeding began
in August, a considera ble part of it has
turned yellow and died, altho recent
rains there greatly improved stands
still alive. A soaking rain would work
wonders thru the dry counties where
the present outlook is decidedly
pessiInistic. In the southwest counties
10 to 30 per cent of the seeding is
being delayed for rains heavy enough
to sprout the crop.
Corn husking is now general over
the state. Pastures are dry in all Sec
tions except where the recent rains
fell. III

It was a disappointing answer. It
didn't give a bit of information re-

men must be protected.
Never mind it doesn't make any

well, do you think they should be
protected?"
No answer.
DO you expect to assure them pro-
tection?"
Even the nod had gone. Judge
Crawford merely looked off into space.
Seemingly some train of happy thought
had been wrecked and the court judge
failed miserably in trying to hide his
resentment.
Don't you believe the public is en-
titled to some statement from the
court instead, of relying entirely on
announceme from federal authori-

eyes. Mention of sordid strike mat
ters seemed to annoy him.
Did the court hold a conference to
determine the number lof persons
necessary to present a motion to ad-
vance the Howat case before the
United. States supreme court?"
Judge Crawford came back with a
tired yes and no nod that seemed so
sorely to make clear that questions
were rude interruptions.
Don't you think the public is en-
titled to know about these matters?"

thing in the law to compel us to talk
about them" came the unexpected
but emphatic response.
In Judge McDermott's office an in
terview was sought as to his absence
from the state house Tuesday.
Did he go to Pittsburg for a con-
ference with AL Williams? No state
ment.
Was he in Kansas City attending
the American Legion convention?

The Topeka state journal., 1921-11-02

The Industrial court is seemingly
trying to forget the mine strike. Nor
does it want to be disturbed with the
possibility of a nationwide tie-up in
production. The fifth floor of the
state house is such a quiet, restful
place, fairly well heated and fully re-
moved from contentious and disputes
of the coal diggers. Maybe that was
the reason the court didn't want to be
aroused today by discussion of worldly
affairs.
Almost every day there are impor-

Judge McDermott was in conference
with a woman who had come to

ney for the court, was entertaining
Judge Crawford with a humorous
story about a negro who once drank

went to sleep. So with McClain's

was interviewed.

METERS CUT TAXI RATES
Would Reduce Fares to Minimum,
Says National Official.

The lowest possible reduction OF
taxicab rates, making rates lower than
those in Kansas City. will be effected
by the installation of meter system
on Yellow Cabs here. according 20
John C. williams. secretary of the
National Association of Taxicab Own
ers, of Washington, D. c., who is here
today visiting Roy Payne, operator of
the Yellow Cab company.
Williams says the most satisfactory
charge system, both from the stand
point of the paying public and the taxi
operators, has proved to be the meter
system whereby the customer pays a
fixed rate for each mile or part of a
mile travelled. Under a flat rate Gus
toners sometimes feel that they have
been overcharged for a short haul be-
cause it would be possible to ride fur
ther for the same fare. Meters have
been perfected that cannot be tam
pered with by taxi drivers, protecting
both the firm and the customer
Payne will probably install this meter
system if it proves that Topeka senti-
ment cons ders it desirable.
The Yellow Cab company of Topeka
was classified by williams as one
of the best conducted transportation
systems he has ever examined.
