Half million automobile owners
in Chicago want to see the auto laws
enforced on all alike.
The way they have been enforced
against the many and ignored in ia
vor of the few. under the Fitzmorris
police administration, has badly dam
aged Mayor Thompson's popularity.
Mayor Thompson, who is reported
to be on the point of yielding to pub
lie opinion and appointing a chief of
police in place of Fitzmorris, should
not make another mistake of the kind.
He would make such a mistake if
he appointed Arthur Millard to the
place The public would like to see
policeman on the job and one who
would abolish all privilege in loop
parking of autos.

Millard would probably make a bet

IN The LEGISLATURE
Work of illinois Lawmakinq Body

Eight thousand nine hundred and six
new jobs were created by the Illinois
employers in November, the general
advisory board of the state depart
ment of labor reported.
This per cent gain in employment
increased the states industrial pay roll
3.8 per cent to s8,831, 1876, the de-
partment figures show.
Every month in 1922, except July,
showed an increase in employmen ac-
cording to the department of labor.
The November showing is in marked
contrast to conditions in November,
1921, when a decline of .O9 per cent
was reported.
The employment gain was chiefly in
iron and steel mills, machinery and
manufactures, furniture factories and
chemical plants, analysis of the re-
port shows. The improved industrial
condition gave railroads a 10 per cent
increase in earnings, according to the
department.

He said at Elmira that he would bend
every effort when he returned to AL

legislation, abolish the Transit Com
