SOLD|ERBONUS
FOR MARYLAND
HELD INVALID
Vets Depressed at High Court
Decision Multiplying Act
Of Legislature.

ANNAPOLIS, July 22.-Veterars
al over the State are agitated as the
result OF a Court of Appeals desislon
handed down Tuesday, declaring The
Ss'OOo,o0o soldier bonus bill uncon-
stitutionaI.
Albert Truitt. State adjutant Uf the
american Legion, was depressed
Wnen informed that the bill had been
oeclared unconstitutional.
IL Will mean a year or more to
get up another BILL" he said. This
VIII cause great disappointment. I he
region will probably get together and
decide on what action to take"
The court held that the referendum
provision of the bonus bill is In vic.
lation of the State constitution, and
consequently is void.
The bonus bill was passed by the
lost session OF the legislature. Some
months ago its constitutionality was
attacked by Harry o. Brawner, a
baltimore business man, who peti.
TONED for a writ of mandamus COM
pelling the Board of Elections Super
visors of Baltimore City to keep the
bonus question off the ballot. The
elections supervisors were defended
oy the attorney general.
First blood in the legal fight went
70 the elections board. the States
law department and to proponents of
the measure generally when Judge
Stein in Circuit Court, Part 2, up.
held the validity of the bill. The de-
cision was appealed.

Annapolis Voters o. X.
$4,000 Issue of Bonds

ANNAPOLIS, July 22.-Although
considerable apathy prevailed and
only about IL per cent of the regis
tered vote was polled, the electorate
Of Annapolis approved the bond issue
Of S72I 900 authorized by an act of the
last Legislature for additional sewer
age and paving improvements. The
ratio of the victory was more than
two to one. The total vote was 296
for the measure and 1870 against.
While the loan was approved, the
question has been raised as to the
legality of the bonds on the ground
that the election was not held within
the time limit of sixty days pre-.
scribed by the act, even though the
law was enacted as an emergency
measure. Members of the city coun-
ell believe that the difficulty on this
score will be adjusted.

FOUR NARROWLY MISS
SERIOUS INJURY
The Pitkin Miner.

The Pitkin Miner.
Sunday afternoon as L. w. Smith,
]. ]. Kuykendall and son Roy, and
John Fry were returning from Wau-
nita to Pitkin, the Ford car in which
they were riding was overturned into
Hot Spring creek and the occupants
caught underneath the car. All missed
being killed or badly injured by a
miracle.
The car belonged to Smith, who was
driving, and who had driven but a
few times. The accident occurred
about three miles below Waunita on
sharp curve, where the road crosses
the creek.
Smith was coming at terrific speed
when one of the other members of
the party called to him that another
car was crossing the bridge. He ap-
parently lost his head, and control of
the car as we'll, and stepped on the
gas, shot clear across the creek, the
machine lighting on its wheels and
turning over into the creek, catching
all four men underneath. All were
able to crawl out at once and were
practically uninjured, the top of the
fiivver holding the car off of them.
John Fry was caught by the car door
and received severe squeezing, tho
not serious.
| The car which met Smith, driven
by Lawrence OLeary, was just leav-
ing the bridge and managed to get off
the road and into the clear. Smith,
however never reached the bridge, his
car leaving the road several feet be-
fore reaching the bridge. Had the
cars met, serious injury would have
resulted to both
Mountain roads, full of curves and
with many cars on the road is nc
place for speed maniacs, even if they
are good drivers, and when they car
scarcely pilot car on straight road
it is indeed poor judgment, to say the
least, to see how fast car will go
Other cars on the road are entitled
to some consideration as we'll as thos,
riding with the careless and poo
driver.
A few minutes more time and Civ
everyone chance is much safer thai
trying to be a Barney Oldfield on ,
ten mile road with five mile driver
1t shows both selfishness and igno
rance to put on speed on such roads
as lead to Waunita, more especially
when driver is new at the job, and
hes absolutely no control of his car
Let's all have little consideration
for the other fellow on the road

Forest Fires

The Forest Service requests that
all persons on or near the forests be
doubly careful with all kinds of fire
during the extreme dry weather now
prevailing.
Pipe ashes, cigarette and cigar
tubs should be completely free from
fire before touching the ground. Try
to smoke less in dangerous places, the
same as if it were your barn.
