STATE To BUILD
MORE GOOD ROADS
Highway Commissioner Babcock
Calls for Bids on New List
of 20 Big Projects.
ALL GRADING - TRAVELLING
Nearly 100 Miles of Grading and 1875
Miles of Gravel Surfacing With
Minor Items Make Late Season
Program Total $1,440,0o0.

Putting money on the trunk routes
as fast as it comes in that the public
may enjoy added highway betterments
at the earliest possible dates, Charles
M. Babcock, state highway commits
sioner, will call for bids July 10 on 20
important Improvements on a late
summer program estimated at $1,440;
900.
The call follows action by congress
toward appropriating more federal aid.
Although only half as much as was ex.
pected until recently and provided by
the government in other years will be
forthcoming this year, Minnesota will
take every advantage to get the best
results and many needed improvements
will be built, highway officials said.
The cut of nearly $1,500,000 in the fed.
eral aid allotment will force postpone.
ment of improvements the department
is anxious to effect, they added,-yet
the big letting of contracts will ad.
vance waiting projects accordingly.
The new list includes more than 123
miles of crawling and SO miles of
grading on various sections of the
state trunk highway system, wide dis.
tribution being offered to spread ben.
efits to different sections. The high.
way bulletin contains map repro.
duced here showing locations of 1922
projects and a few uncompleted in
1921 and paid for in part with 1922
funds.

SECOND STRIKE Is AVERTED
Unions to Continue Under Wage Cuts
Pending Road Parleys.

Chicago-The threatened extension
of the strike of railway employees to
100000 track men was averted through
the efforts of members of the United
States Railroad Labor board and Of
ficials of the United Maintenance of
Way Employees and Railroad Shop La
borers.
Postponement of the strike was an
nounced by e. F. Cradle, president OF
the maintenance of way organization,
after he and his executive council had
conferred with Chairman Ben w.
Hooper of the labor board and w. L..
McMenimen, labor members of the
board.
Maintenance of way chairmen were
instructed to proceed to take up main
tenance of way disputes with the in
dividual roads and in case an agree
ment is not reached to refer the mat
ter to the labor board. These disputes
include the wage cut recently author
lied by the labor board for mainte-
nance of way employees, changes in
maintenance of way rules and the con-
tracing out of track work.

TO DEAL WITH
men ON JOBS
Nobody viii Starve or Freeze,
Railroad Executives Assure
the Public.

Chicago-The six railway shop
crafts unions which went on strike
are outlawed by the United States
Railroad Labor board.
In formal resolution, the board de-
clared that the unions, by their action,
forfeited all rights before the board
as railway employees and that new or
CARNATIONS of shopmen taking the
striking mems jobs should be formed
to represent the shop employees in dis.
putes before the board.
The board requested employees re-
naming in the service and the carri-
ers to take steps Immediately to form
new organizations for the purpose Of
representing the shopmen before the
board. .
Applies to All Unions.
The resolution formally declared
that the striking shop workers are no
longer employees of any railroad and
therefore without the jurisdiction of
the board or subject to the application
of the transportation act. Although
applying directly to the shopmen at
this time, the board also said that if
the maintenance of way men, signal
men, stationary firemen and oilers and
clerks joined the walkout, they would
be relegated to the same positions as
the shopmen.

ACCIDENT FATAL TO SENATOR
Mower County in Sorrow Over Death
of Senator Nolan.

Grand Meadow, Minn.-Mower coun-
tvs most popular citizen came home
not to the plaudits of admirers or
fanfare of trumpets, but shrouded in
the panopoly of death.
Over the trail from Rochester near
ly 200 friends of w. A. Nolan accom-
panied his body to his home here,
anxious to give tribute to the man who
had written his name large in state
politics and Mower county affairs.
Death that came to State Senator
Nolan at Rochester from injuries suf-
fered when his automobile turned over
on the highway near there, turned the
county and all this section OF southern
Minnesota into mourners' camp.
From Grand Meadow, Austin, Dex.
ter, Elkton, Spring Valley, Racine and
from the countryside hereabout came
the 200 men who made up the auto
mobile party of all that was mortal to
Senator Nolan.

FIRE WIPES OUT LANDMARKS
st. Paul Lumber Yard and Horse Mar
ket Raced BY Flames.

st. Paul-Two boys intent on terri
flying several goats by throwing fire.
crackers near them, are believed to
have been responsible for $15O,OOO
fire in Midway. The flames wiped out
the Barrett & Zimmerman stables,
largest horse market in the Northwest,
1888 University avenue, st. Paul, and
destroyed the yards of the Brooks
Bros. Lumber company, 1923 Univer-
sity avenue, and the Columbia Hall
building, 1929 University avenue.
Starting in the goat sheds owned by
Barrett & Zimmerman, and famed by
brisk southwest wind, the fire
spread so rapidly that firemen who ar
rived few minutes after the blaze
had been discovered, found the sheds
a virtual furnace.
Aided by a score of spectators, the
firemen rushed 70 horses from the Bar
rett & Zimmerman stables just before
the rear end of the shed fell in.

STRIKE BENEFITS
NOT LIKELY NOW,
OFFICIAL STATES
Some Shop Unions Weak,
Others Strong-No Calls for
Assistance Heard.

Strike benefits probably will not be
declared by shop unions in the present
walkout, a local union official said
today.
Some crafts have treasures which
can stand heavy drains and others do
not. In fairness to all the reserve
funds may not be generally taxed.
Cases Of need among strikers will be
dealt with individually, it was stated.
Thus far strikers do not need
money, the official said. Some of
them have taken employment in other
trades and a majority have not used
up their last pay.
An open meeting for women rela-
tives Of strikers and the public was
held at 2 o'clock this afternoon at
Machinists Hall.

All the thrills of a regular fire ex-
cept the flames were put on for the
benefit of the Indiana State Firemen's
Association at the demonstration to-
day in the drill yard at fire head
quarters. There was considerable
smoke, but only from the cigars Of the
visiting delegates.
The fire alarm was there, and the
shiny red trucks and the 65-foot ladder
and little nozzles and big nozzles and
lot of real water to go through them.
One interested spectator from Chi
cago became so absorbed that he didn't
notice the water being turned on until
his new Palm Beach was generously
sprinkled.
Battalion Chief H H Fulmer
changed into the drill yard in true
business style and an interesting pro-
gram was executed, ending with dem
onstrations Of how to go up the sixty.

nent. In the last twelve years the
annual election to the GovernorshIp
has been about equally divided be-
tween the parties. although Repub-
leans have usually controlled other
State offices and the Legislature.
Massachusetts cities, with few ex.
ceptions, are usually overwhelmingly
Democratic. The rural regions, on
the other hand, invariably are count.
ed on for Republican majorities. The
reason is this:
Fifty years ago there was scarcely
a Democrat in Massachusetts or in all
New England. In the seventies the
immigrants began to pour into the in
dustrial cities and, because OF the
