Harding Says We Have
Laws Enough

President Harding has come to
the conclusion that we have laws
enough to handle the strike sit.
uation. Most assuredly we have.
The non. enforcement of the laws
breeds and precipitates all trou.
bles and disorders. If the rail
roads and their employees had
have obeyed the law of the Labor
Board there would have been no
strike If President Harding had
rigidly enforced the orders Of the
Labor Board against the railroads
and have thus shown the EN-.
ployees also that this law was to
be enforced, we would have had
no strike. The failure of the en-
forcement Of the law is also re.
sponsible for the coal strike,
which is more profitable to the
coal operators than anyone else.
The termination of all strikes re.
vert profit TO the ones intended
to be harmed. This is probably
why strikes are tolerated.

y The manufacturers who have
requested that this chan ye In the
regulations be made, say a lower
standard invariably results in an
increased sale Of dairy products.
Before the State Board of
Health takes any action in the
matter, however, it desires to

dealers who handle ice cream aud
members Of the general public
that use it are invited to com.

Do you observe it is proposed
to reduce the standard Of the

to reduce the price. The Times

can be increased by decreasing
the quantity Of the cream.

Works Pike from the city limits
to the Powell county line under
the Federal aid provisions.
According to the plans OF con.
tstruction under the Federal aid
system the Federal Government,
when the roadway is approved,
will pay one half Of the cost OF
construction. In other words,
every time that the county puts
up one dollar, the Federal Gov.
eminent will match it with a dol.
lar. State Aid is also available
on this thoroughfare.
Clark county is unable to meet
the Federal aid on this roadway
unless a special levy is provided.
Members of the Fiscal Court in
discussing the construction OF the
road, and awaiting themselves at
this time of the opportunity OF
securing Federal aid, claim that
a 20 cent levy similar to the three
year levy voted when the Lex
ington and Winchester and the
Mt. Sterling and Winchester
pixies were provided for, for a
period of two years, would make
it possible for Clark county to
construct a modern road.
The twenty cent levy which
was voted for the purpose of
Clark county availing itself of
the opportunity of securing the
Federal aid on the other two main
roads in the county was paid out
last fall. The tax rate for Clark
county is now 30 cents, and it is
permissible to raise the rate to
fifty cents by the Fiscal Court,
but members of the court feel
that a 20 cent levy voted for two
years will be sufficient to con.
struct the roadway under the
Federal and State aid provisions
and viii be the better business
policy to vote the levy than raise
the rate.
The road leading from this city
to the Powell county line is one
of the most important roads in
Clark county and when complet
ed would mean more in a bust
ness way to Winchester and Clark
county than any other road that
comes into the city.
As a fair sample Of the type of
road that is secured under the
Federal aid provisions, the Win.
chester and Mt. Sterling pike,
which is now under construction
and which has been completed to
the intersection of the Wade's
Mill road, is one of the highest
type Of roads that it is possible
to construct. Those who have
had an opportunity to travel the
Mt. Sterling pike pronounce it as
one of the very best roads in the
state, both in construction and
from an engineering standpoint.
1t is possible through voting a
twenty. cent levy TO obtain the
construction of road similar to
this leading from this city to. the
Powell county line.
The real question is shall Win.
chester and Clark county avail
themselves of the opportunity af.
forded them by voting twenty
cent levy, or will the residents
and taxpayers pass up the oppor.

Some Inhuman Laws Against Wives
and Mothers.

In 81 of these United States a
married mother has no legal right to
her children.
In 16 states wife has no legal
right to her own earning outside Of
the home.
In 8 states a woman has no right
to her own property after marriage.
In Z states there is no law COM
pelling a man to support his own
family.
Taking these things to heart,
prominent women of this city have
formed the National Legislative
League to do away with them.
We hope they may succeed. If
women who bear children, who nurse
them in sickness, whose existence is
bound up in babyhood, have no right
to their babies, who on earth has?
1t seems strange fact that the
remarkable legislators who passed
the law in 81 states were once babies
themselves. Perhaps the curriculum
of an incubator would have made
them think and act differently.
And should not a wife have a
right to her own earnings? What
justice is there in that law which
prevails in 16 states which allows
recreant and drunken husband to
despoil his wife of the money she has
earned?
Who gave the small atom shaped
after the fashion of Adam the right
to oppress and bulldose the smaller
atom shaped after the fashion Of
Eve?
Not less idiotic is the law pre-
vailing in states which takes away
the right of a woman to her own
property after marriage. Thus the
marriage law in these states may be
made the vehicle of downright thiev-
cry by men who care nothing for the
sanctity of vow.
Taken as a whole the women of
the National Legislative League have
a mighty good basis of fact to work
on.-New York Journal.

THE PNEUMONIA MONTH.

March is a typical pneumonia
month and usually gives a high rate
of mortality for the disease. After
long and hard winter. the system
loses much Of its resistance and
people grow careless When every
cold, no matter how slight, is given
prompt and intelligent attention,
there is much less danger of pneu-
monia. 1t should be borne in mind
that pneumonia is germ disease and
breeds in the throat. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is an expectorant and
cleans out the germ ladened mucus
and not only cures cold but pre-
vents Its resulting in pneumonia. It
Is pleasant to take. Children take It
