81 Routes Left
In Highway Bill

Baton Rouge, lathe senate COM
mittee on public roads and highways,
after much discussion and several
amendments Wednesday, reported
favorably on the Baynard road meas
ure. The bill as passed by the house
names sixty-six highway routes to
which were added in the senate com
mittee fifteen, making total OF nine
ty-one.
There was much opposition in the
senate committee to the plan of writ
ing many routes into the bill, but it
was argued since this had already been
done by the house, it would be an in
Justice to the senate body for individ-
ual members to deprive themselves of
the privilege Senator Williams stated
that if members Of the house had
right to write routes in the bill he
and any other member of the senate
had the same right. He stated further
If there was not some limitations OF the
highway system it would never be
completed, and parishes which had al
ready built their roads would not be
reimbursed as provided for in the
terms Of the bill for perhaps nearly a
century.
The committee adopted an amend
ment to the bill to reduce the salaries
of commissioners to 5000 year, and
providing for the appointment Of the
first chairman by the governor and at
the expiration of his term his success
sor Is to be selected by the board.
A subcommittee composed of Sena.
tors Butler, Hood, Lawrason and Davey
was appointed to draft measure max
ing ample provision for reimbursing
parishes and municipalities and also
the assuming of all hard-surfaced
roads.

RESCUING kDMIRER
FROM JAIL,
CONNIE'S LATEST

Constance Talmadge has search
ed for sinners, she's been a love ex-
pert and a perfect woman, but for
the first time in her career has she
gone to the lengths Of rescuing a
young man from jail in a picture,
sGood References" her latest First
National vehicle, to be exhibited at
the Princess Theatre, commencing
Tuesday and Wednesday August g.
10.
Being in love with fascinating
young lady is enough to keep any
young man in a constant stage of
worry and perplexity. But being in
love with beautiful girl who bailed
you out of night court and didn't tell
your family about the trouble-keep-
ing the little dark secret as a whip
over your head, to drive you at your
leisure-that is misery that beggars
description.
But of course Vincent Coleman
says he didn't mind playing this part
at all, because opposite him was the
winsome and capricious Constance.
This humorous situation and the
embarrassing dilemma in which Mary
Wayne (Connie) is subsequently
placed form an amusing part of Miss
Talmadge's new starring vehicle.
