BRIDGING GAP
HEALTH BOARDS
CHIEF PROBLEM
Lack of Finances From July
to November May Require
New Loan.

Discussion of means of bridging a gap
In finances between July l and the last
of November when the fall installment
of taxes is received, will be the chief
business before the board of public health
at its weekly meeting tonight. The board
faces the necessity of either obtaining an
extension of time upon temporary loans
falling due July 1 or negotiating a new
loan Of approximately 100000.
From taxes the hoard received $4,000
in May. 1t now has in it's treasury
around $1,000 and will receive $4,000 or
$4,000 more from the county treasurer
late this month Out Of this there must
be met temporary leans and bills amount
ing to $3.50 900 One of the loans aamount-
ing to $4,000 has been carried over
from 1920 and the other, for $210,000, was
made early this year. Interest charges
to be paid on the two loans at the time
Of retirement total S10,8s2.14, making a
total of $685., So. II to be spent on account
Of the loans. BY paying up these obliga-
tons and meeting the July / pay roll OF
the health department and the city hos
pital practically all of the money to
come into the boards hands before next
November will be exhausted Or. Herman
G. Morgan, secretary, estimated
economy In order to keep the expendi-
lures within 100000 from July to NO
vember, DR.. Morgan said The board
must meet another 1921 temporary loan
Of 100000. due Dec. 4, and this, with the
5000, 900 to be borrowed now, practically
will eat up all the funds to be received
from taxation In Noymeber.
The health department has been oper-
ated upon temporary loans ever since it
was made a separate taxing unit, for
the reason that the law did not provide
for financing 1t during the first six
months Of its existence until It's money
i.cgan to come in upon its own tax
levy.
The board also will consider the re-
quest of negro physicians of Indianapolis
that school for negro nurses who will
care for patients Of their own race, be
established at the City Hospital.

so as to illuminate curves and hiIsides.
In other words the opening In the lower
part Of the reflector can be kept prac-
tically parallel and In line with the road
surface under any conditions.
ACCIDENT SURVEY IN
CLEVELAND TYPICAL.
A survey recently was made in the city
Of Cleveland of the $40 traffic accidents
that occurred during one year This was
done to show so far as possible how
many of the 1859 accidents which oc-
Cured after dark would have been avid
ed If daylight or its equivalent hid been
available. 1t showed that 202 accidents,
fourteen OF which were classed as fatal,
we're directly attributed to lack II ligAt
This conclusion WAS reached by cc:n-
pairing the number OF accidents during
the hours OF the night which are light
In the summer aud dark In the winter.
The condition In Cleveland is coIsid-
cred typical Of those in other. large
cities. all tending to show the need for
better Illumination of the country high
ways.
Now that a lighting unit has been
developed which appears TO have solved
the problem so far as illumination is CON
cerned. there remains but one outstand-
ing obstacle to make the highways safe
at night and that is a plan for appor-
tioning the expense OF ;he Improvement.
Farmers who own the land adjoining the
roads claim their benefit will be but
small compared to what autoig,s from
all parts OF the State and cour ~ will
receive. They feel tho installing should
be done the same as roads are improved,
since this is an improvement to traffic
Just as essential as a smooth road surface
1t is a job for the adjoining cities or
the State highway departments, they
feel
Several communities have already be-
come interested and plan Installations
of the new lights for short distances
and It is believed that when the decided
advantages IF better light for country
roads is actually seen, step in soliciting
tn ehelp of the States Will be taken, per
haps being fOstered by automobile clubs
and organizations whose members would
derive the greatest benefit.

SAYS BRITAIN is
SLAVE HOLDER
Senator Norris Appeals to
Senate to Recognize Irish
Freedom.

WASHINGTON, June 20.-Great Brit
ain was branded as a stakeholder" for
her refusal TO grant ireland independence
by Senator Norris, Republican, Of Ne
braska in urging adoption Of his resolu-
ton for Irish freedom in the Senate to
day.
at il just as unjust, just as unholy.
Just as reprehensible for one civilized
ntion TO hold another civilized nation In
subsection as It is for an individua. 10
own the flesh and blood Of his fellow
being and to sell and traffic in human
slavery" declared Norris.
Norris fayed the recent activities Of
the British military in Ireland and de-
clared that promises OF self determination
made by Premier Lloyd George during
the war were nu.lifed and Ireland be-
trayed by the autocrats who sat in Sc
cret around the peace table at Yer
sailes
The British military forces, Norris de-
clared, resort to methods that violate
every civilized rule OF warfare and can
not be defended before any honest trib-
unal"
He defended the methods Of warfare
employed by the Irish. asserting that
Ireland was driven to the practices In
self defense
Argument sthat Irish independence
would endanger Great Britain. because
Ireland may be used as n base to at
tack England, were rldlculed by Norris.
The argument followed to its natural con-
ciuslon, he declared, means that Eng
land must have under her flag the entire
world" 20 protect herself
"In the name of liberty and freedom
for which our forefathers fought" Norris
concluded MS appeal, "in the name Of the
silent voice of conscience that breatnes
forth from the soul Of every free man
and woman; In the name OF Christian
civilization; in the name OF progress
and humanity, appeal to the Senate to
express the sentiment Of the American
people by protesting before a suffering,
waiting world against the cruelties that
are being henped upon the Irish people
and demand FOR this long suffering, but
courageous and determined race the same
freedom. the same liberty that, by the
will Of Almighty Coz and our forefathers,
we ourselves enjoy"

I With an astounding percentage of

hea Hight glare-something the many
types CT refIectOrs and lenses does not
entirely eliminate new plan for max
ing the country highways as safe as the
we'd lighted city streets will be welcome
news to the thousands who use the high
ways
This new plan for banishing the glar-
ing headlight does not call for any change
in the automobile or it's headlight. There
are now hundreds of different kinds Of
lights and reflectors, all advertised as a
cure for this evil which is annually cost
ing so many lives, but still the accidents
occur with the same old excuse-blindsd
by the other fellows headlight.
A simple economic way for iliuminat-
ing the highways so there viii be no
more need for the glazing lights on the
country roads than on the city streets,
is the solution of the problem offered by
the General Electric Company. which has
Just completed a new type incandescent
lamp reflector after months Of study and
experimenting by the company's corp Of
Illuminating engineers. A test installa-
ton has been made at Swampscott, Mass.
which has fulfilled all pledges and pre-
dictions of the Designers well lighted

An incandescent lamp of go candle
power is all that is needed in these re-
Electors, placed at a height of thirty feet
at distances from 100 TO GOO feet apart,
to illuminate the roadway so well there
IS no need for the glazing headlights.
CALLED PARABOLIC NEST
HIGHWAY LIGHTING UNIT.
the parabolic nest highway lighting unit,
embodies an entirely new and distinct
feature for collecting the light rays and
casting them only where needed. Engi-
neers have spent years studying schemes
to prevent the illumination Of fields and
adjoining roadways and yet have light
that would properly illuminate the road
and do so without glare. A nest of re-
Electors, or a series Of three, one within
the other, is the outstanding feature Of
the new unit. There are similar openings

HoD You May Change
Your Face Completely

Any woman not satisfied with her
complexion can easily remove It and
have a new one. The thin veil of sitting,
half dead cuticle is an encumbrance and
should be removed to give the fresh.
vigorous, young skin underneath a chance
to show itself and to breathe. There's a
simple, old -fashioned remedy which win
always do the work Get an ounce of
pure mePcolized wax from your druggist
and apply 1t at night like cold cream,
washing It of in the morning. The wax
will gently absorb all the lifeless skin
and leave a healthy and beautiful com
plexion, as fresh as a chllds. Nat
urally it takes with 1t all such facial
blemishes as freckles, moth patches. sal
lowness, liver spots, pimples. 1t is pleas
ant to use and economical. The face so
treated soon looks years younger.
To keep the skin free from wrinkles
there's nothing quite so good as the old
reliable saxolite lotion. 1t is only neces-
sary to dissolve an ounce of powdered
saxoIite in a half pint Of witch hazel
and battle the face in this as required

tor now found on some highways on the
outskirts of cities.
The bracket holding the rehectors Is
adjustable in both vertical and hori-
zontal directions so that the fixture can
be mounted on poles close to the edge
