THE ARMY

Gen. Pershing in selecting Col. Rob-
ert c. Davis as the adjutant general
Of the Army. with the rank Of major
general, for period Of four years,
has woh another victory in the se-
lection of officers with high qualifica-
Itions.
Gen. Davis. the youngest officer in
the history of the American Army to
hold the executive position OF the ad-
tutant general. has in his few weeks
Of Office demonstrated the value of
intensive cooperation with all de-
partments OF the government
Perhaps the most notable and i'm
portant service rendered by Cen.
Davis is his personal interest in ex-
pediting records Of the medical re-
ports in his office to the veterans bu-
reau. Daily requests from the bu-
reau average 700. 1t Is said that
Gen. Davis insists that no more than
forty-eight hours shall elapse dur
ing the interval of receiving forms
and delivering to the veterans bureau
the data requested.

THE NAVY

Naval engineers express tho belief
that the improved Curtiss navy racer
Of 1922 will be able to give = much
better account Of itself than It did
last year, when 1t established a
worlds record. The Curtiss CD-12
engine. which performed perfectly in
the previous race. will be again used
1t is said the greatest problem in
the development of hi high-speed me-
chimes is the head resistance, which
reduces speed in an atrplane more
than weight. BY the use this year of
a cylinder-shaped radiator the head
resistance of the machine will not
ba percept:bly increased, and the
machine should show q speed fifteen
miles faster than it would with the
standard type radiator.
A further improvement to resist
contact with the air will be to cover
the wing surface Of the racer at top
and bottom with two sheets of brass,
connected at front and rear Of wing
in order to permit q very thin film of
face OF the wing. In addition to this
change, all parts Of the racer, such
as the skid wire terminals and pro-
jecting nuts, have been stream lined.
The wheels will also be treated so
that their head resistance will have
standard type.
Prompt Action Saves Life.
A radio message plus an impro-
vised airplane ambulance possibly
saved the life Of the wife Of a MEM
ber Of the coast and geodetic survey
recently.
In answer to the message from Cape
Hatteras the plane, an F-6-L OF the
large navy type of scouting planes,
made the trip in record time with the
station doctor, and returned to Nor
folk with the patient.
The, Cape Hatteras station Is located
In an inaccessible part Of the coast
and medical attendance can only be
obtained after many hours or even
days Of delay. The naval station at

AMI 1T THE TRUTH?

Here is something that we pick
ed up in passing, authorship I'M
known but its truthfulness is adj
mitted:
The banker who attempts to per-
sonally manage and direct the OPP
erations Of a farm usually makes a
failure of it just as the farmer who
attempts to run a bank without
experience usually fails. A news
paper is about the only kind of an
institution that needs neither ex-
perience nor special knowledge to
operate. Anyone can run a news
paper or thinks he can.

ENFORCE LAW
IS PLEDGE OF
RESOLUTION
State Officials to Work
With United States
Agents.
GOVERNOR TALKS
Conference Shows De-
termination in
Actions.

Determination to enforce the prohl-
bition laws and the laws prohibiting
combinations in restraint of trade is
expressed in a resolution presented
this afternoon at the meeting of
prosecutors, sheriffs and police Off
GERS of the State at the State House.
The conference was called for the
purpose Of bringing about coopera-
ton among law enforcement
agencies.
The resolution was presented by
committee composed Of Prosecutors VII
liam p. Evans Of Indianapolis, L. S. Lin
coin Of Cannelton and Earl Rolley OF La
Porte.
The resolution sets ont the necessity
Of enforcing the prohibition laws and ex-
presses the determination TO bring about
their enforcement instead of depending
on Federal officials and at the same time
TO cooperate with Federal officials. It
also expresses the determination 10 bring
to Justice any peace officers found to be
failing in their duty IN enforcing these
laws. Il insists on q cooperation from
these officers.
On the subject OF combinations In re-
straint Of trade the resolution points out
that many such combinations grew out
of the war and are still In existence. 1t
compliments Attorney General l., S. Lesh
for HIS activities In prosecuting the So
called ice and dairy trusts.
The resolution IN fun follows:
Conscious as we are that these ele-
ments OF our population which would de-
stroy respect for and defy the law are
particularly active at this time In an ef-
fort to enrich themselves by repeated
violation Of the prohibition law; recog-
nlzing as we do that St SIS our respou-
sibuity and our sworn duty to en-
force in our respective communities the
laws against the use or sale Of iutox-
ioating liquor as we find those laws writ
ten ia the fundamental law of the land,
and upon our stateutc books; believing
as we do that.the only way TO prevent the
use and sale Of intoxicating liquor iu
violation Of law is ~ rigidly enforce the
law against all offenders ~ insisting
upon the imposition Of jail and penal

shown to have traficcd IN Intoxicating

BOARD ORDERS
AGENT TO GET
TRUCK PRICES
Works Body Considers Pur-
chase of ROadsters for
Street Inspectors.

The board Of public works today in
structed City Purchasing Agent Jesse
+. Miller to obtain prices on four two
ton dump trucks for the street cleaning
department TO replace WORKOUT equip
ment. The board also IS considering the
purchase Of a number Of light roadsters
for street inspectors.
An order was issued to Harry Newly,
superintendent OF the municipal garage,
prohibiting the issuance of city gasoline
for any but a city-owned automobile.
The order eliminates the practice OF
the city providing gasoline for employees
who use their private cars on city work.
1t IS the theory of the board that If
city employe needs an automobile IN his
work the city should supply It,
The board made minor appointments
as follows: Charles F. Brinkman. 1923
Bellefontaine street, carpenter; Samuel
Haynes and Frank Reid, heavy truck
drivers. and George W. Roberts. carpen-
ter, all in the street commissioners de-
partment; J. Gordan Murray. roller man !;
sherman Jackson, drum fireman, and
James Miles, laborer. IN the asphalt re-
pair department Joe Kamp was reduced
from carpenter to helper in the street
commissioners department.
on the plea OF a delegation OF business
men from North indianapolis, the board
ordered the changing OF street name signs
IN the northwestern part Of the city
stopped.
The city council several weeks ago
passed an ordinance changing approx
mately seventy five street names in vari-
Gus parts Of the city aud the changes in
North indianapolis were IN accordance
with this. The residents plan to ask the
new city council to repeal parts Of the
ordinance.
