MANY CARS SKID
ON ICY STREETS;
ARE WRECKED

a large number OF Rock Island
auto owners took chances with their
lives this morning when they
braved the icy streets and steered
their machines as best they could
Early this morning pavementS
were icy sheets, but much of the
ice melted before noon.
The police received no reports OF
auto accidents, although there were
many. There were no collisions
between cars, but many cars crash
ed into curbings and telephone
poles. In all parts of Rock Island
automobiles were lodged against
telephone poles or broken down
over street curbs where they had
skidded and the wheels broken.
The sight OF such wrecks served
to cause only a few to abandon
their machines. Most drivers kept
on, but some cars were left parked
along the streets, the drivers not
daring to go any further in them

HOPEFUL That
ARSENAL WORK
WILL RESUME
MAYOR SchriVer Receives Eneourag-
ing Response to Plea for
PeAce-Tfme Orders.

Mayor Harry M. Schriver today
called upon every civic organiza-
t,ou in Rock Island 70 get behind
the m5ve to have the Rock Island
arser.aI opened up to meet the I'M
employment problem
The mayor declares that many
families are depending entirely on
charity, and that with little hope
for private plants opening up in
any large scale, it is time that civic
organizations consider the situa-
ion and do what they can along
other lines to bring relief
The mayor has written officials
IN Washington, urging that the
Rock Island arsenal be opened for
the manufacture of peace time
needs of the government ! 1t is
claimed that supplies can be manu-
factured al much less cost than in
private manufacturing plants.
Claim is also made that with all
the arsenals Of the country working
day and night only 80 per cent of
the peace time needs could be
Manufactured Dy lnem.
The mayor received letters today
from George B. Christian, Jr., sec
rotary to President Harding, and
z. f. Hunt, secretary Of the presi-
dents unemployment conference,
In answer TO the suggestion two
weeks ago that steps be taken TO
have the arsenal opened up. Both
letters suggest that all efforts to-
ward this end should be directed to
the Office Of the secretary of war.
Mr. Hunt in his letter said:
81 am very much interested in
your letter Of Nov. 7, and the en-
closure. Have you presented this
matter to the present secretary of
war? II certainly seems to me that
you should do so, and especially
that you should do it in view of the
program OF the conference on limi-
tation Of ornaments"
Bigger Hope Held.
Mayor SchriVer believes that
there is now even brighter hope
that the arsenal may be brought
into the field OF manufacturing
peace time needs OF the govern
ment, and thereby furnish a large
amount of work for local people. He
declares that one of the main
things upon which hinges general
prosperity is the disarmament con-
ference. Should there be an arma-
ment agreement among the powers,
the mayor believes that one of the
hrst results to be felt locally would
be the reopening of the Rock Is
land arsenal. 1t is thought that
the government will feel itself
bound TO find some use for its ar
senals, although there remained
small likelihood of any manufac-
ture OF war material except in the
smallest quantities from time to
time.
Realtors Give Support.
The Rock Island Realtors in
their regular meeting today at the
Rock Island club voted a resolu-
ton to support the efforts of Mayor
Schriver to have the arsenal re-
opened. A set Of resolutions adopt
ed presented the attitude of the
real estate men, and copies are to
