Changes in New York

United States Senator Cornelius Cole,
who will be 100 years old Sept. II, has
looked New York over after an alb
sence of 40 years, and approved the
changes and developments made dur

The ruddy-faced, twinkling- old
gentleman who first took his place in
congress in 1851, has inspected River
side Drive. the subways, skyscrapers,
flappers and motion picture palaces,
and found them all good to look upon,
he said.
"On the whole" he chuckled, "I
find the east keeping up pretty well
with California.
Mr.. Cole, who looks 40 years
younger than his age, considers next
to the abolition of slavery, for which
he voted, his work for a trans-conti-
mental railroad as the most important
of his career.

said, I'VE had to travel on land by

pose of building a railroad across the

The former senator, who has seen
world events written large across the
pages of history, does not think much
of feminine politics; and on prohibit.

INDIANA STATE FAIR
GROUNDS TRANSFER
IS DECLARED VOID

INDIANAPOLIS, June 30-The ac-
ton of the last legislature providing
for the transfer of the Indiana state
fair grounds on the assumption of the
obligation of the state board of agri-
culture, a sem1-public corporation,
was declared void today by the SUI
preme court. The courts decision re-
versed decisions of the Marion county
supreme court, in its decision of a
friendly suit brought to determine the
validity of 81, 900, 900 worth of bonds
proposed to be issued to finance a
building program at the fair grounds.
Three sections of the 1921 law were
held by the court to be unconstitu-
tional and the elimination of these
three sections would make the act
meaningless, the court held. There
fore, the court held the entire act
void.
The three sections that were de-
clared unconstitutional by the court
were those providing for the transfer
of the titles of the fair ground prop
erty to the state, the issue of $1,000
900 in bonds and the issuance of a
retire the bonds. In its decisions the
court divided to 2, Judges Willough-
by, Gravis and Townsend concurring
in the majority opinion while Judges
Ewbank and Myers dissented. The
opinion in the agricultural case was
the only one of especial Importance
handed down by the court, which ad-
journed today until October.
