CITY WILL OFFER
PAVING LINK BILL
Seeks to Improve Highway and
Street Connections.

A bin to make possible the paving Of
stretches OF unimproved highway within
the city limits between paved streets and
paved country roads, where such paving
has been held mp heretofore because the
cost would exceed 30 per cent Of the as
sessed valuation Of property fronting It,,
was agreed on by the board Of public
works and the county commissioners at
conference held at the city hall today.
The hill, which was prepared by Cor
poration Counsel Samuel Ashby, will be
sent to the present session Of the General
Assembly.
Besides the commissioners and board
Of works members. Mr.. Ashby, Mayor
Charles w. Jewett and County Auditor
Leo K Fesler attended the conference.
For several years thsre have existed
in Indianapolis a number Of stretches
Of unlmproved street between the end Of
paved sections and the beginning Of
paved country roads. This existed on
some Of the main automobile arteries
and has been considered as an eyesOre,
not only to citizens Of Indianapolis but
OF others who motor into the city. Be
cause the cost of paving exceeded half
the valuation Of property in the section,
however, the board Of works legally was
prevented from doing anything
Mr.. Ashby's bin will provide that wher-
ever condition exists In a section Of
main highway only, the board of works
may 20 ahead with the paving after
submitting the plans to the commis-
sioners for approval and collect the ex-
cess of the cost over 30 per cent Of the
assessed valuation Of the property half
from the city and half from the county.

STEVENS NOT ONLY ONE

Here are a few more illustrations
of the fact that In Marion County it

to keep him there until justice is
served.
Ray Vernon and Clarence Wink
Ter we're indicted for grand larceny
by a grand jury that reported to
Judge James A. Collins June 12, 1920,
Their indictment grew out of tha
complaint of r. r. Siebert that the two
men had robbed him of s76 in a craps
game played with crooked dice in a room
at the Colonial Hotel. Siebert also com
planned that after robbing him the men
beat him when he complained Of the
crookedness OF the game
On July 80 the two men were ar
raigned before Judge Collins and Prose-
cutor Claris Adams nollied the charge
against Winkler. Judge Collins heard
the evidence and Judicially decided that
Vernon was guilty of grand larceny
Then Collins entered upon the Grim
inal Court docket, Judgment and sem
tence withheld"
When the year 1920 ended the 'judg-
ment and sentence" of this craps shooter
who was convicted of robbing his VIC
tim by the use of doctored dice was still
reposing under the sheltering arm OF
Judge Collins. who kept him out of jail
