Cincinnati officials and the citizen
ship In general has awakened to the
serious financial condition in which
the city finds itself. In such situations
politics is forgotten for time and all
attention is turned to retrenchment.
Maysville found itself in similar con-
dition about a year ago and a citizens
committee was called upon for help.
It seems that there are some auto
mobile drivers who do not yet know
that 1t is an infraction of the state mo-
tor laws to drive with the cut-out
open. There is nothing more OF
nuisance than for an auto driver whose
machine is making thirty or forty
miles to throw open the cut-out. This
nuisance is practiced on the city
speed-ways especially ut night.
Roses blooming out-of-doors in the
last days OF November is a very un-
usual sight in this section. This has
been the prettiest and warmest fall in
many years in Kentucky.

There was very little home building
done in Maysville during the past year,
due, We learn, to the high cost of build

hoped that material will decline to

for there have been many building lots
sold and indications are that there will
be many good homes erected II condi-

Zens Of Maysville to begin thinking
about their councilmen so it's none too

sentative. We elect a state Senator in

FOR FLOOD PROTECTION
Extension of Mississippi River COm-
 missions Jurisdiction Sought.

Washington, D. C., June 2.-Senator
 Robinson of Arkansas today appear ed before the Senate Committee on Commerce and urged the adoption of his amendment to the rivers and har-
 bors authorization bill, extending the jurisdiction of the Mississippi River Commission to the tributaries and outlets of the Mississippi river, and
 to that section of the stream from St.
 Paul to the head of the passes. At present the commission has control over flood prevention work on the river proper
 Senator Robinson said that during
 the recent floods, the overflow of the
 Arkansas and White rivers spread over large areas of land which are
 protected from the direct overflow
 of the Mississippi. The lands in these
 areas, he said, are heavily taxed for
 levee purposes on the Mississippi but are not adequately protected from the
 high waters which back up the Ar
 kansas and hite rivers and cause seri
 ous damage. Similar conditions eX-
 ist in Missouri, Mississippi and Lou |isiapa. he said, with respect to the tributaries of the Mississippi river.

URGES FACILITIES FOR 500 PATIENTS
Committee Recommends Expenditure of $1.OO0,0OO at Fort ROOts.-
 Improvements Needed.

Little Rock, June 3.-After a con-
 plete survey and inspection of condi-
 tions at the Veterans Bureau hospital
 at Fort Logan H. Roots yesterday, w.
 F Hudson of Dallas, Tex, Claude A. Brown of Little Rock and pr. L. J. KCsminsky of Texarkana, members of the Fourteenth District Rehabilitation Committee of the American Legion, forwarded a recommendation to the National Rehabilitation Committee in Washington, asking that the capacity | of the hospital be increased to a mini mum of 500 patients at the earliest possible moment.
 The recommendation will call for expenditures by the government of close to $1,OOO,OOO, almost double the amount that had been previously esti- mated. Owing to the excellent situa- tion of Fort Roots, and it's isolation from disturbing influences, it is be- { lieved that it will be one of the first hospitals to receive the attention of the Veterans Bureau.
 There are no facilities at present for the care of tubercular patients. It will be necessary to provide building for the separate care of these tubercular cases, with some means of arranging for separate mess facilities.
 Therapy Building Planned It is planned to provide an occupa- tional therapy building, which will offer patients every opportunity to learn some trade which may occupy their minds while in the institution and furnish them some means of earn ing a livelihood after their discharge. Patients already are becoming adept at the manufacture of toys, baskets and novelties
 While there is no positive assurance that the Veterans Bureau will act fa- vorably on the report, members of the committee believe the improvements will be made. The House Appropria- tions Committee has declared for the advisability of enlarging existing hos pitals, instead of creating new ones, and Fort Roots heads the list on any proposed extension. The $1S,0O0,O00 recently appropriated by Congress for this purpose will be ample to take care of the requested improvements for hospitals now working to rehabil- itate the ex-soldier.
