WAR DEPARTMENT IN
FAVOR OF RAGING FOR
DEVELOPING HORSES

Washington, Jan 27.-Horse rae
ing is favored by the war depart
ment las a means of developing
the thoroughbred horse" secretary
Weeks states in a letter to Whit
Moss, chairman of the judiciary
committee OF the Kentucky state
senate.
The war secretary i'm his letter
declines the request OF Chairman
Moss that two army officers be or
dcred before his committee to tes-
tify in hearings on an anti-racing
bill pending before the Kentucky
legislature.
Il understand the question in
volved is that of betting on races
rather than the prohibition of rae
ing itself" the letter said, "Whtle
heartily in favor Of continuing rae
ing as a means of developing the
thoroughbred horse, the war de-
partment is not interested in the
question Of betting thereon.
IF racing is discontinued or
abolished" the letter says, "the re-
suits of breeding could hardly be
less than disastrous to tho utility
and light horse industry of the
United States, and it would mean
that the army could not in the
event of war. mount its cavalry or
properly equip its infantry diVl-
sions and artillery with the large
number Of riding horses that are
required In modern warfare.

400 PERSONS KILLED
IN PARIS LAST YEAR
CBy The Associated Press

Paris, Jan. 27.-Four hundred
persons were killed in Paris streets
by automobiles or horse-drawn We
hicles, tramways and other means
Of locomotion in 1921.
The problem of street traffic
has been the subject of many IN
vestigations and numerous re-
ports and recommendation have
been made to Project Of Police
Leuillier.
Some time ago "red bands
about six feet wide were painted
across the streets at the interseC-
tions of the busiest corners of the
city, policemen were stationed at
these points to motion automobiles
to slow up and pedestrians cross
ing the streets on the red bands
were supposed to be in absolute
safety.
Pedestrians, however, seemed to
think it was below their dignity to
walk the red band" and now they
have been abandoned for zones
of safety" The latter will consist
of adopting the system in vogue in
New York at the busiest corners
along Broadway or Fifth avenue.
Partisan Chauifers, however,
show little regard for the police
men waving the white baton and
continually run past signals" in
a way that would bring them be-
fore a New York magistrate to be
fined. In Paris it brings nothing
but good natured banter generally
directed against the policeman
from pedestrians who may be run
over at the next corner.
Former Minister of Justice Nail Of
the Clemenceau cabinet, Viscount-
ess de Rohan-Chabot and Countess
de WignaCourt were the most
persons who were run
down and killed by automobiles in
the past year.

ed that in those six departments
there might be repair and con-

difficult period of the winter IL
still before u.s. rather than later in

"The response of employing In

ford employment to the greatest

has produced highly gratifying re-
suits" the president said. Thanks
10 this fine cooperation the situa-
tion has been much less difficult

might otherwise have been.
states and cities as well as pri-
yate companies and individuals
have taken more comprehensive
and effective measures than prob
ably have ever been taken before
in such A situation. The natural
self reliance of the American citi-
zen has been supplemented in
these times by neighborly help, by
part time work, by odd jobs; en-
ployers have. to a marked degree,
eXerted themselves to find work
for employees and have anticipated
construction operations which 9TH

taken UP later.
"City and state authorities have
generally organized to provide
work and prevent or alleviate dis
tress due to lack of employment.
In substantially every city where
the need has appeared. the mayor
has appointed emergency commit
tees to lead the community action.
Municipal bonds have been sold
10 an unprecedented degree, to pro.
vide for construction as early as
possible OF needed municipal
works. In this way much winter
work has been provided.
THE response OF the general

generous and effective that I think

TO have the agencies OF the federal
government do their very utmost
in this humane effort"

HARDING Is URGED TO
SUMMON A CONFERENCE
ON HOUSING SHORTAGE

Washington, Jan. 27.-President
Harding is urged in letter which
Senator King, of Utah, announced
he had sent to the White House to-
night, to call a national conference
of financial, building material and
structural interests to discuss ways
and means of relieving the housing
shortage, which the senator said
exists to a greater or less degree
Throughout the country.
The Utah senator declared that a
revival of home building would not
only bring relief from "eXhorbitant
rents and overcrowded housing,
but also relieve unemployment.
The proposal made to the presi--
dent by Mr.. King had the support
of Senator Calder, OF New York,
who studied the housing question
as head OF a senatorial committee
that investigated the problems.
