The commission has successfully

now require material to be free from

screen having circular openings IA

these chips be rolled into the surface

"The highway construction program
has reached the point where it will be
limited, not by the funds available, but
by the availability of materials, ma
chinery and contractors to do the
work. Has this situation with refer
ence to funds for construction been
formulated with due consideration for
the necessary maintenance program?
1t is the opinion of the writer that it
has not, and he believes that this Is
certainly to some degree attributable to
the highway commissioners and engi-
neers.
The opinion is held by a vast major
ity of people that the funds for he
present highway construction program
are being invested in permanent"
roads, meaning by permanent" that
they will last for at least two gener-
atoms. Is there any foundation in fact
for such belief? Have concrete roads,

MRS. zUMWALT A CANDIDATE
Widow of Late State Printer Wants to
Succeed Her Husband.

Mrs. Imri Zumwalt Of Bonner
Springs, widow of the late state
printer, today became candidate for
appointment as his successor. Mrs.
Zumwalt visited Governor Allen today
and discussed her candidacy for the
office.
During the last four years Mrs.
Zumwalt has been in charge of the
Bonner Springs Chieftain, owned by
her husband during the last eight
years. She is a practical printer and
newspaper woman and well known
among Kansas publishers.
A few days before the inaugural
ceremonies in January, Imri Zumwalt
became sick and was unable to attend
the inaugural or receive his oath OF
office. He was appointed to succeed
W. R. Smith when he resigned in
February, 1919. He was then elected
to the office in November last year
and received a plurality exceeded only
by those accorded Governor Allen and
L. j. Pettijohn. secretary of state. His
new term of office would begin July
1, this year.
Because of the big vote accorded
her husband, there is a feeling that
strong influences will be brought to
bear on Governor Allen to recognize
Mrs. Zumwalt with appointment. A
number of candidates are in the race
for the office. but Mrs. Zumwalt's
name was today presented for the
Governor Allen IS expected to an
nounce appointment at an early date

today.
The submarine sank after two at
tacks, in which twelve bombs were
dropped. Three bombs were dropped
in the first attack. made by three navy
machines at 1923.
One direct hit was made. At 1882
three planes again went to the attack
and dropped nine bombs. One bomb
hit the submarine just aft of the con-

near her.
Six minutes after the bomb exploded
on the submarine, the vessel listed
and one minute later the coming
tower disappeared.

distance from the target. Both men
were picked from the water by naval
plane.
Army Planes in Reserve.
Seven squadrons or divisions of
naval marine corps planes had been
prepared for the attack, and it had
been arranged that if the 1873 bombs
carried by them did not sink the sub
marine squadrons of army planes as
sembled at Langley field would under
take to destroy the underwater boat.
Had the former German craft re-
manned afloat after that she would
have become the target for guns of a
division of destroyers.
