for adequate National Defense and
that some of them will eventually
join either the National Guard or
Organized Reserves.
The object of these camps is to
bring together young men of high
type from all sections Of the country
on a common basis of equality under
the most favorable conditions of out
door life. to stimulate and promote
citizenship, patriotism and American

men individually and bring them to
a realization of their obligations to
their country.
Accepted candidates are required
to be physically fit and of good moral

serve. Public Health, Marine or Ma
val doctors stationed, these inocula-
tions will be given him free of charge.
The War Department has prepared
an attractive folder giving in detail
the requirement for candidates and
the duties at these camps. These are
being distributed to Principals Of
high schools, Chambers of Commerce,
Rotary Clubs, American Legion Posts,
Army Posts, Army officers and vari-
GUS similar agencies for issue to
young men who are interested in this

THREE new BUILDINGS
AT STATE FAIR WILL
Give WORK To 1000
(By Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 9.-Five
months of steady work for 1000 men
will be provided by the proposed build
ing program of the state board of agri-
culture calling for the expenditure of
s350,000 to 100000. according to l..
Newt Brown, secretary of the board
Work is planned to get under way
about March Is and continue until
mid-August or early September.
Definite announcem of the
boards plans have been withheld
pending the closing of the $1,000, 900
bond sale by the board, which would
provide all the funds for the building
projects. The tentative bid of a Chi
cago company, offering a premium for
the bonds, has been accepted by the
state board but actual delivery of the
bonds and payment therefor await the
decision OF bond attorneys regarding
the legality of the, ISSUE
We can build ias cheaply this year

STATES HARD ROADS,
new JUNIOR SCHOOL
RAISE WAYNE TAXES

Reduce expenditures and you will
reduce the tax rate is the message
of David L. Reid, Wayne township as
SCISSOR to taxpayers of his township
Mr.. Reid maintains that the building
of hard roads, and the erection of the
David Worth Dennis high school build
ing in West Richmond are potent fac
tors in fixing the tax rate
'The three-mile road law has meant
a great deal in the way of getting
hard roads for this community" he
said Thursday. Wayne township has
an assessed property valuation of over
SS,000,000 and Richmond has a valua-
ton of over S33 900, 900. 1t is a great
deal easier for roads to be built under
a valuation of approximately $4,000
600 than only $8,000,000 which is what
would have happened without this
law.
Burden Partly Shifted
Wayne township would have gone
broke" long ago in building the num-
erous hard roads that surround this
city were it not for the three-mile
road law which transfers part of the
burden to this city, said Mr. Reid.
We now have the Arlington pike, the
Liberty pike, the Sell and Commons
roads and the National road east and
west of the city," he said. I'm addi-
ton, it is now proposed to hard sur
face the New Paris pike from the
Gaar road crossing northeast of the
city east to the Ohio line.
That the cost of road building has
dropped considerably in the last year
or so was another statement made by
him. 1t used to cost about s35 900
for a hard surfaced road" he said.
To-day we can get that road for
$4,000"
New roads and the David Worth
Dennis high school building are the
outstanding factors that have forced
a raise in the tax rate - -. ~,
- he said. In 1920, the tax rate
was s. per hundred. In 1921. for
taxes payable in 1922. the rate was
$3.50. The 1922 assessment work will
be started in March.
Depends on Expense
whether the tax rate would be re-
duced this year, or increased Mr..
Reid did not say. He did saw, how
ever, that the tax rate is largely de-
pendent upon the expense and this
factor will determine the amount of
tax to be paid in 1923 by Wayne town
ship citizens.
W. {. Nusbaum, member of the field
force of the state tax board will he
here Feb. p to instruct the local
assessors in their duties. A district
meeting at which all assessors of
Wayne county and other counties in
the sixth district, may attend, will be
held at Rushville, Feb Is
Wllllam Mathews, Wayne county
assessor, is seriously i'll at his home
IN Centerville. Whether or not he
VIII be able to attend the meeting at
that time is not known.

Judge Raymond S. Springer of Con

time next week. to pass on the Wad-

made by him Thursday. The Judge

OF the attorneys for the defense and
will give it as soon as court business
in his county slackens enough to per-
nit his absence.
Attorneys for Sheriff Wadman, who
is accused of carelessness in office,
filed motion several weeks ago to
have the complaint amended. They
made the claim that it was not suf-
ficiently specific in it's terms. Paul
A. Beckett, prosecuting attorney,
argued against the motion, and Judge
Springer took the case under advise

MAY SINK VETERAN
VESSEL WITH RITES
AS TREATY SYMBOL
fRv Associated Press)


WASHINGTON. Feb. 9.-Adminis-
tration officials are undecided as yet
to suggestions that a veteran battle
ship of the fleet to be scrapped under
the naval limitation treaty be sunk at
sea with full military honors to sym
bolize ratification of the pact which
will end competitive naval building
among the five great naval powers.
The idea is known to have appealed
to some high officers of the govern
nent as a fitting tribute to the old
battle craft
1t has impressed other officials as
an undesirable and impractical
course, however, and final decision
probably will not be reached until the
full program of disposing of scrapped
battleships has been worked out in de.
tail by the technical experts.
In any case one of the ships design
ed to be destroyed probably will be
sent to the bottom by gunfire The

neuvering target at sea, before the
Washington conference placed her
among the worn out craft to be scrap

PUBLIC UTILITIES
NECESSARY, SAYS
NWANIS SPEAKER

Burdens which rest upon the shout
ders of the human being today will
be transferred and will be thrust upon
the powers of nature herself" said AL
bert Stump, attorney, Of Indianapolis,
before the Kiwanis club Thursday
Mr.. Stump appeared as representing
the Indiana Public Utility association,
of which the Home Telephone COM
pany and the Richmond Waterworks
company are members, and argued in
favor of state regulation of public
utilities.
Mr.. Stump pointed out that the util-
tiles which are available for use of
the human being would in the near
future figure in the cooperation of the
public for the betterment of the work
which is being performed.
Utilities Necessary
THE utilities must be made not
merely a safe place in which to invest
money, but even an attractive place,
in order that capital may be made
available with which to expand their
services to meet the expanding neces-
sites VI the people.
THE attitude of the public toward
the commission that regulates utilities
and toward the utilities themselves is
frequently unwarranted. 1t is Gre
ated in many instances by overzeal-
Gus champions of the people who are
looking for persuasive campaign slo-
gans. 1t may place them in a position
where they can draw salary paid by
the peoples money. There is a feel
ing encouraged by such defenders of
liberty that the public service commits
sion is a commission for the purpose
of increasing rates only
While considering the peoples in
terests before the commission | be-
lieve that it would be well to- ask you
to make some comparison of the
prices you pay for public utilities
with the prices you pay for other
things.
Compares Expenditures
Let me submit some figures which
require only ordinary experience and
no mathematical genius to verify. The
average family's income taken from a
large number of different families
show that it is spent in the following
proportions:
For food, &c $40 per cent: for rent
and fuel, p $40 per cent; for clothes,
10 $40 per cent; for insurance 4-10
per cent; for electricity, 40 per cent;
for street car fare, 2 $40 per cent;
for gas for cooking, 80 per cent; for
telephone, $40 per cent; and for mis-
cellaneous articles including vaca-
tons. entertainments, gifts and saw
lngs. % 80 per cent.
This totals 100 per cent of the in
come. A further statement of the
facts OF the case should be made here
and that is that the rates for public
service have increased about % per
cent on the average during the past
four years, while the increase for
every other commodity has averaged
from 90 to 100 per cent These fig
ures should be taken into considera-
ton in estimating in broad general
way the work of the public service
commission. And when it is realized
that even with that moderate increase
and with the per cent of the average
family's expenditures for public utili-
ties commodities as low as it is every
one of the public utilities in the state
of Indiana has been kept going"

OFFICIAL OF ORDER.

Ivan Moore, of Indianapolis, deputy
chief of staff, Veterans of Foreign

Thursday announcing the resignation

Main street. James Pace is no longer
past commander of the post, his
resignation having been accepted by
me. He will not represent the organ
ization hereafter in any capacity what

ton has miscarried is not the fault of
the post, but of individuals. and | am
taking proper steps to avert any fu-
ture misunderstanding
Want Highest Type
"The organization is not supporting
any political faction, and never will
do so. The Veterans of Foreign Wars
as an organization, is not big enough
to hold anyone with personal ambi-
lions and only the highest type of
citizen soldiery will be considered in
future applications for membership.
'The American Legion is a wonder
full organization, and has offered CO.
operation with my order, but due to
the individuals responsible for our
past inactivity, was refused. | wish
to state that in the future any soldiers
organizations will receive our hearth
est assistance and cooperation upon
application.
Il trust that with our new officers
and quarters we will progress steadily
toward the ideals prescribed in our
constitution. ] wish to thank the
public and the American Legion for
their loyalty in the past and solicit
their sincere friendship in the future"
Pace Alleges "Frame-up."
The citizen upon whom the honor
airy membership had been conferred
is Mayor Lawrence Handley. He is in
eligible for such action because he
has not served overseas. Mayor Hand
ley stated Thursday that he had
known nothing of the proposal until
the honor was conferred upon him, in
the city hall.
James Pace said Thursday that he
mad been the victim of 'frame-up"
and had contemplated handing in his
resignation for some time past.
