STANSFIELD is CHOSEN


The tentative formation of the Vic
tory Highway association, at the
meeting of the Cooperative club last
week, has been made permanent, with
George w. Stansfield, originator of the
idea, as the national president of the
association; Topeka the national head
quarters, and Harry lines, Albert Ma
gle. T. A. Lee, Joe Nickel. Mrs. c. A.
Wolf, A. c. Lagerwall and T. c. White
ker, all of Topeka, directors of the as
ISOLATION.
The step toward making the organ
ization permanent was taken Wednes-
merce, when the Topeka Merchants
association, the Topeka Automobile
Dealers association, and the Topeka
Automobile club, at a joint meeting
held at the Chamber of Commerce
rooms, got behind the movement for
the dedication of motor highway
from coast to coast, to the American
soldiers who fell in the World War.
Other officers elected at the We'd
nesday night meeting were: Leslie A.
Rowles, vice-president, and H. G.
West, treasurer.
The work of marking the highway
from the California end of the high
way has already been started by the
California Highway association, which
is enthusiastically cooperating with
the plan.
The state borders are to be marked
with bronze statues by the American
Legion, according to the plan of the
originator, which has been endorsed
by the local post of the Legion. The
women's clubs in the states traversed
by the highway will be asked to
plant trees along the road.

Winfield Secures Injunction
Against Pressure Reduction.
Four Ounces Necessary, Says
Judge in Decree.

Winfield, Kan, May 19.-The plac-
ing of pressure reducing devices on the
house-side of gas meters has been en-
Joined in district court here in the suit
of the city of Winfield against the
Wichita Natural Gas company and the
Winfield Natural Gas company. Pro-
ceeding under an order of the court
of industrial relations permitting the
installation of limiting devices-de-
vices which limit the volume of gas
that can be obtained in an hour-the
gas company was installing elaborate
pressure reducing" devices, inside the
housing of which was the limiting"
device.
The city contends that the order of
the industrial court did not authorize
the reduction of the pressure, only the
limiting of the volume according to
the demand" paid for blythe custom
ers. Heretofore the working pressure
for domestic consumption has been
from four to eight ounces, when there
was sufficient gas for the needs of the
town. The new devices reduce this
pressure to is ounce.
The restraining order is to stand un-
til further order of the court or until
the public utilities commission shall
determine that less pressure shall be
the standard. The limiting device au-
thorized by the industrial court is a
simple affair, being merely a metal
plug inserted in the supply pipe on
the house-side of the meter. A hole
thru the plug regulates the flow of
gas.

A Good SHOWING
Membership of Topeka Mer-
chants Association Increases.
Total of $4,000 Saved on Adj
vertising Projects.

The. membership of the Topeka
Merchants association has been in
creased from 81 to 1877. with ten APP
plications for membership pending;
the number of no-fund checks on
which Topeka merchants have been
''stung' has been materially de-
creased; eighty-three advertising and
Soliciting projects which would have
cost Topeka merchants $4,000 have
been turned down by the advertising
and donations committee, and good
start has been made on a trade extern
sion campaign to enlarge Topeka's
trade territory, since February l.
These were some of the high points
in the discussions which occurred at
the membership meeting of the Mer-
at the Chamber of Commerce. The
Milton Tabor. secretary, declares is
the work of the membership commit
tee, headed by F. c. Gibbs. Much of
the credit for suppressing the no-fund
check artists is due to Tabor's own eff
forts.
To Clean Up Advertising.
A cleaning up of advertising is one
of the projects to which the associa-
ton will next turn. Tabor declares
that there are frequent and fragrant
violations of the state and federal
pure advertising" laws. and that the
members of the association are not
guiltless. An advertising censorship
composed of the advertising men from
the newspapers and the advertisers
themselves is soon to be formed to see

after, Tabor announced.
a meeting of the ad men for the
formation of a permanent organiza.-
ton is to be called in the near future.
Robert Fullerton. chairman of the
trade extension committee of the as
ISOLATION, urged the advantages which
are to accrue from the enlargement of
the trade territory thru the extension
and advertising campaign which is
being waged at present.
Charles L. Mitchell urged the mer-
chants to look after the interests of
the farmers of Shawnee county if they
wish to acquire the good will and Sc
cure the business of the agriculturists.
