BOOST WASHBURN CAMPAIGN
Students and FacuIty Members Donate
Total of $15,131.

Washburn campus-dwellers are not
content to be mere beneficiaries of
the $25O.OO0 campaign IN Topeka
At a chapel meeting this morning,
$50 more students subscribed to the
fund. bringing the total contribution
from students and faculty up to date
TO $15.131. well over the sum first
estimated by the president as a fair
donation from the campus group.
The senior class subscription aver
ages nearly 500 from each member
Every instructor has subscribed Il
per cent of his salary for five years
making a total of S7.463.
The campus contribution will be in
creased before the general campaign
begins March 21.
Unlike the subscriptions which VIII
be asked of Topeka citizens at large,
the S2.2OS subscribed by students this
morning is to be paid Immediately,
and is practically equivalent to cash
subscriptions by the general public
will be payable in yearly installments
for five years
In addition TO the S2.2OS. the senior
class contribution adds s4,260. Sim
liar contributions are expected from
the lower classes when they graduate.

h. R. RATES TOO HIGH-REED
No Justification for Present Charges,
Declares p. U. c. Head.

Testimony in the congressional
hearing on the Hoch transportation
bill and the decision of the United
States supreme court denying states
the right to interfere with passenger
and freight rate making have not con-
WINGED Clyde M Reed, chairman of
the public utilities commission, that
the rate system is right. Even an
nouncement of the carriers to the eff
feet that further rate reductions are
coming, does not stop the protest of
the Kansas commission head.
There is no justification for the
present high rate level, Reed asserted
following his return from the Wash
ington rate hearing. Reed asserted
that the per cent earning plan which
was devised fore sta abization of rail-
road earnings has helped the smaller
roads. Many of the larger roads, he
says have earned more than the
per cent.
But in the eighteen months that
has elapsed since the collection of
the high rates not one penny has been
sent by the strong lines into the pub
lie treasury according to provisions of
the act" Reed asserted. He said the
decision in the Wisconsin case deny
ing state commissions the right to fix
rail rates was not wholly a surprise"
He said the Capper bill introduced
in April last year, would tend to re-
lieve some of the sorrows which came
to the states thru the decision-pro-
vided the Capper bill should be passed.

HUSBANDS DON'T CARE
Mixed Jury Locked Up Over
Night just Like a Family Party,
Says Member as Failure to Get
Verdict Is Announced.

Trenton, N J.. March 9.-Locking
up of men and women together over
night in a jury room is regarded by
the women of the jury to which this
happened in Mercer county Tuesday
night, as breaking down of old con-
ventions to give way to the new free
dom of woman secured by the nine
teenth amendment. That is the view
of Mrs. Bessie Hack, wife of Harry
Hack, a. Bell Telephone office employe
here.
LAS citizens" she said, I'VE must
perform the obligations imposed upon
US regardless of the conventions
which would interfere with our new
duties. We wives get an insight to
these duties and obligations formerly
performed entirely by the husbands"
There has been no evidence of in
dignation among the husbands of wo-
men locked up all night with male
jurors.
why. it was just like a family
party" said one of the jurors. The
jury, after being locked up for twenty
hours, with male and female attend
ants stationed outside the court room
where the jury was kept, failed to
agree on a verdict in the trial of Rap
pael PizzelH, charged with criminally
assaulting his 14-year-old sister-in-
law, Louise FraZoni

San Francisco, March 9.-HaroId
Craig, p years old, bridegroom of
four months, before his marriage told
his sweetheart he soon was to become
heir to $4,000.
Recently he told of an approaching
payment of $2,25O on the legacy.
Tuesday afternoon he staggered into
his Mill Valley home. There was a
ragged bullet wound in his right shoul-
der. He said that he had been shot
by highwayman, who took from him
a 1915 diamond ring and $1,000 in
cash. Wednesday night he told Sher-
iff J. J. Keating that the holdup was
a myth and that with his own hand
and his own revolver he had inflicted
the wound to make the story stronger

the deception was not necessary to
keep her love.

500 Get PERMITS LET EUROPE DO IT
Many Visit City Hall to Receive
Drivers License.
Age Question Was Evaded
When Women Visit Table.

The first of more than 500 automo-
bile drivers in Topeka to secure a Ii
cense to drive a motor vehicle, in ac-
cordance with the new ordinance, was
Holmes Meade, of $40 Lincoln street
Meade did not secure license No l.,
however, since the licenses were is
sued from various books variously
numbered. License No. 1 was issued
after 10 o'clock to r. L. Scott, of 1880
Kansas avenue. ----
Thruout the morning, there was a
waiting line of drivers in the lower
hall of the city building. and four
clerks were issuing licenses as fast
a they could write them. More than
500 licenses had been issued before
II o'clock. -
A. B. C. of Traffic.
With each license there was issued
a small pamphlet entitled THE A B.
c. of Topeka. Traffic Ordinances" a
volume designed to be first aid to the
drivers who would hang on to their
credentials. Violation of any of the
city ordinances on traffic, is grounds
for the revocation or suspension of the
permit by the licensing board.
There were vastly more men than
women in the line. The age question
was evaded at the table, the clerks
being content to write 'over sixteen"
in the blank space provided for the
age of the applicant.
At the time he made application for
his own license, DIR. H. La Clark,
county coroner, submitted to the
board written suggestion, in part as
