NEW CITY IN PALESTINE TO
BE NAMED AFTER SEN
ATOR CURTIS

A city in Palestine is to be named
Curtis, in honor Of Sen. Charles
Curtis Of Kansas. This statement was
made last night by Rabbi Simon
Glazer, of Kansas City, Mo. "Sen-
ator Curtis has done more than any
living man to restore Palestine to the
Jewish people," said Rabbi Glazer.
'Beside the word Curtis, in Hebrew,
means beautiful. What could be more
patriotic than to name a beautiful
city after such a good friend of our
people"
'I want to let the people of the
state of Kansas know that it was a
Western American statesman who
made it possible to pave the way for
the redemption of the Jewish people
in the European countries, and To-
peka will go down into Jewish history
as the cradle Of the newly acquired
liberties.
con August 80, 1921, came to
Topeka to address a meeting to raise
funds for Palestine when the idea oc-
Cured to me to have Palestine as the
home of the Jewish people. It was at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry C.
Shapiro, 318 Topeka boulevard, that
got the idea and Immediately tele-
phoned Gov. Henry J. Allen for an
interview and he put me in touch with
the Kansas senators.
The author of the Palestine reso-
luton recently passed by the United
States senate is Sen. Charles Curtis,
of Kansas, and in Jewish history this
reolution will be known as the Curtis
resolution.
81 have been promised bv the ad-
ninistration that the matter will be
taken up with that great British
statesman, Arthur Balfour, at the
earliest convenience and that Great
Britain and the United States will
work together to solve the Jewish
problem and that America will EN-
plOy every lawful means to further
the interest of the Jews in Palestine.
Topeka, however, is the home of
the author of the resolution and If
was a Kansas senator who made ap-
pointments for me to tell Pres. War
rem g., Harding about the Jewish
conditions. The recognition of Pal
estine as the Jewish homeland is all
due to Kansas and Kansas influence, .

This IS the seventh of a series
of fifteen industrial articles
which viii be published in the
Free Press, one each week for
the next fifteen weeks for the
purpose of outlining to the out
side world the vast field of op-
portunities existing here for ad-
vancement and success. The
facts contained in these articles
are all absolutely reliable and
gathered by an expert publicity
man, who has had many years
experience in this business.
The Free Press throughout
this length of time, will make
an effort to show that there is
not a county west Of the Miss
issippi river that offers a wider
field Of endeavor than Ellis
county. Every phase of indus
trial life and business activity
VIII be covered in a thorough
and constructive manner.
The carrying out of this
campaign has been made posi-
bic by the advertising support
accorded by the many progress
sive business institutions of
Hays, the metropolis and Cap
ital of Ellis county and this
section of Kansas. After read
ing industrial article turn to
the industrial pages and see
who these progressive firms are,
who so willingly have come to
the assistance of this enter
prise.
Every reader of the Free
Press can assist very material
ly in this campaign by sending
his own copy of the paper to
friends or relatives in other
sections of this state or other
states after he has completed
reading it, that these friends
might learn of the opportunities
of this splendid productive
section.

Topeka, Kans., June 2O.-Nomina-
tion papers for w. Y. Morgan as Re
publican candidate for Governor of
Kansas, We're filed here today by Will
bur c.. Hawk, his campaign manager,
on the 2O-county plan.
Mr.. Morgan's nomination papers
were signed by more than 10000
voters, the largest number pledging
themselves in favor of any candidate
on nomination papers in the history
of Kansas. His papers were circu-
lated in 1000 of the $500 precincts
Of the State, and approximately 1O,-
600 of the signers are farmers.
Economy and common sense in
state affairs which Mr. Morgan ad-
vocates, together with his obvious fit
ness for the Office, are responsible
for his large constituency, according
to political observers here. He has
responded to the general demand for
reduction of expenditures without in
jury to the institutions or interests of
the State. He also advocates a re-
form in assessment laws which will
reduce the assessment for taxation
for the farmer, the home owner and
the merchant, and is in favor of tax
ing off the tax on farm mortgages,
which is in fact double tax on the
farmer. His plan for budget system
which will place the responsibility on
the executive for the proposal of APP
preparations to the Legislature is
meeting with wide approval, and a
great deal of favorable comment Is
being heard concerning his hope for
the repeal of state laws creating tax
exempt securities.
Mr.. Morgan is admittedly the lead
| ing candidate for Governor. His can
didacy is meeting with increasing
favor as the campaign progresses and
he is sure ito he the choice of the Re
publicans for Governor at the Prim-
airy, August 1st.

There are a few things by which a
city IS judged at home and abroad as
by its service to its public. In other
words, the scope and standard of its
public utilities. Public utilities are
commonly considered only from the
standpoint Of light and power, teIe-
phones and transportation. But in
this category also should rightfully
come public institutions of service
such as hospitals, libraries, tele-
phones, sewers and paving, postal
service and public buildings.
Considered in this broad sense,
Hays and the surrounding territory is
unusually fortunate. 1t has one of
the most modern electric light plants
to be found in cities of this size; it IS
served by the United Telephone COM
pany, with head Offices at Abilene and
operating in northern and Western
Kansas; it has one hospital. 1t has
several miles of paved streets and will
pave more in coming years; it has
thirteen miles of water main, twelve
miles of sewer. These are just some
of the high lights showing the public
service facilities, developed and pend
ing of this modern city of the wheat
land. Their actual detail and develop
ment will be taken up at greater
length in this article.
They are all the reflection of the
progressive spirit of the community,
in keeping with its business interests,
wholesale and retail, its homes and its
general air of prosperity and well be
ing.
Considering the question of public
utilities in the more restricted and ac-
cepted sense of light, power, tele-
phone and transportation. Let us
first look at the water facilities.
