contain q number Of features here

Inspector Harry H. Jackson.
The plan is an enlargement of the
system now in vogue here. 1t pro-
vides for placing a great master tow

nues. BY means of bells and lights a
single officer in this tower will direct
traffic from Detroit river to a point
four miles from the heart of the bust

All vehicular traffic in the congest-
cd district will move or stop in uni
son upon signal from the master tow

tomatically in subsidiary towers, two
OF which are to be placed at each

Premier Leal Vows
Will Restore Public
Order in Portugal

| Lisbon, Jan. 3-(By MaiD --Cunha
Ieal, the new premier of Portugal
who assumed Office about the middle
OF December, has vowed that he will
| restore public order in the country
and pledged his honor to bring to
Justice the assassins of former
Premier Granio and several other
, statesmen murdered in the October
revolution.
He is taking energetic measures to
keep these revolutionary elements in
control Several military and naval
officers have been sent from Lisbon
to the provinces in punishment for
taking part in political meetings of
civilians.
The new premier has appointed as
Civilian Governor of Lisbon Lieuten-
ant Agatao Lanca, 4 naval officer who
had declared that he would not wear
his uniform again until justice had
been done to the assassins of Granjo.
Premier Leal had made a similar
VOW shortly after the assassinations
His accession to power was brought
about within "a hours after the pre-
vious ministry had fallen and was at =
tended by the dramatic incidents.
The air was thick with rumors of
approaching revolutionary events. A
cabinet of the extremist elements al
ready had been formed and was
ready to leap into power. The news
papers state that his choice as prem
Ter saved the country from civil
war.
When it became known that Leal
was forming a cabinet all the ex-
tremist elements concerned in the
revolution in October last, including
soldiers, sailors, civil revolutionaries
and some officers met and sent en-
missaries to the President warning
him that they would not accept
Leafs cabinet and demanding that
Mesquite de Carvalho be made premi-
er. When they learned that they
were too late furious speeches and
grave threats We're delivered at a
revolutionary club and promises were
made that the revolutionary program
would be carried out at whatever
cost%
On assuming power, Premier Lcal
declared that he would squash all
agitators and those who commit fresh
crimes as if they were venomous rep
tiles He promised that all his eff
forts would be directed to enforce or
der and lessen the grave economi-
cal and financial situation in Portu-
gal. He declared that the men who
had urged him to accept the Office
feared that the continuation of dis
order in Portugal would bring about
foreign Intervention. The Premier
said he realized that his life was en-
dangercd but to refuse to accent the
Office would have been an act of
cowardice.
Premier Leafs task was complicated
by meeting held outside the capital
or members Of the Parlia ment which
was dissolved at the time of the Oc-
tober revolution who presented to the

men who powder their noses, touch
up their hair with bit of golden
CLINT or add the bloom Of youth to
their cheeks are positively dishonest,
Evangeline Booth, national COM
nander of the Salvation Army, de-
clared while here~recently.
Women use makeup" to deceive,
Miss Booth said. "a woman has no
right to fool the world" she added.
1.-THE woman with blazing cheeks, in
digo eyes and carroty hair is cheat"
Many divorces are caused by the
fact that women have attempted to
deceive their husbands regarding
their appearance, she thinks. Man.
she added, wants women as nature
intended they should be.
The enormous sale of cosmetics in
the United States is a disgrace to the
country, Miss Booth feels. IF our
young women of today would only
take the money they use for paint
and powder, and buy milk for the
poor. starving babies of the world,
they wouldn't need any artifice to
make themselves attractive" she
said. In their cheeks would be the
hue Of joy that comes from. the heart
and in their eyes the light that comes
only from giving service to the
world"
Miss Booth thinks moderation and
utility should be the guide when it
comes to clothes. Following the style
of the Salvation Army. she says.
skirts should be five o. six inches
above the ground.
TOO many women today destroy
their true womanliness by immodest
dressing and they have only them
selves to blame when their charac-
terJ are questioned" she asserted.
