INJUNCTION IS ASKED
TO HALT AWARDING OF
CONTRACT FOR PAVING

Especial Correspondence to The journal
Ration, N. NJ, April 9.-Com-
plant was filed Thursday in the
district court by Charles Doggett.
j. A. Langston, Louis Garcia,
Charles Rupert. G. F. Tanquary
Howard Williams, Anna Content,
Charles West, Wilfred Jacques and
J. B. Carton against the mayor,
city council and city clerk to re-
strain them from letting the con-
tract for the paving, curb and gut
ter Improvements in district No. 8.
The complaint is based on the stat
utes of New Mexico which provide
hearing on all improvement dis
tricts before bids are called for and
before the contract is awarded.
The city council set April and 7
as the days for the hearing but on
March % advertised for bids which
would be opened on April 7.
The complaint further sets up
that it was the duty of the city
clerk to certify the election of the
new mayor and four members of
the city council on April Z, and
that such new mayor and members

Saturday, April s, and that the
present outgoing mayor and city
council were attempting on the
last day of their incumbency in
office to bind the new administra-
tion by an improvement contract
which the new administration
would have to carry out. involving
many thousands of dollars.
The complaint further alleges
that because of the several irregu-
larities in the proceedings of the
city council and because of failure
of the city council to follow the
statutes, the council would not be
able TO secure the lowest bid for
the work and the property own
ors in the district would thereby
be subjected TO the payment OF a
higher price for the work than if
the proceedings had been regular.
The case is set down for final
hearing on Tuesday, April II, al
10 o'clock a. m. In the meantime
the present council is enjoine1
from proceeding in the matter.

RAILROADS PLAN
SLASH IN RATES
DURING sUMME R
Reductions Ranging From
rs to As Per Cent Will Be
Declared West of Chicago
and st. Louis.
CBy The Associated Press.)

Chicago, April .. - Reductions
ranging from rs to As per cent will
be declared on all railroads west OF
Chicago and st. Louis in round trip
fares to western summer resorts,
effective in some territories May
Is, in others June i, according to
George ]. Mcguire, chairman of the
tariff bureau of the Western Pas
senger association. Reductions OF
20 per cent on fares to eastern re-
sorts will be declared on eastern
railroads and applied concurrently
on the western lines, it was an
nounced. The measure of reduc-
tion is declared to be not only the
greatest for summer rates since
Americas entrance into the world
war, but far greater than any for
a number of years before that war.
even when lower reduced fares
were offered because the basic
rates were buch lower. The sum-
mer reductions supplement home
seeker rates of onc-way fare plus
81 for a round trip, which went
into effect in March.
The summer tourist tickets will
be sold daily until September 80 at
the price of Cne-way fare plus
one-tenth to one-half fare, the
larger reductions Icing for the
|lenger distances travelled. For eX-
ample, a round trip from Chicago
to Yellowstone, Colorado, or the
Pacific coast, will cost one and one
tenth times a one-way fare, while
a round trip from Chicago to a
Wisconsin resort will usually cost
one and one-half times a one-way
fare. Similarly the reduction on
the round trip to Yellowstone or
the coast will be less in proportion
as the tourists starting point is
nearer his destination. AS rule
the return limit will be October
81, but some tickets to Michigan
and Wisconsin points carry a 30
day limit.
Under the homeseeker provision
round trip tickets to sparsely set
tiled regions with return limit of
II days will be sold on roads west
of Chicago and st. Loius the first
and third Tuesdays of each month,
lending with November. The home
seeker rates are the first to be Of
fered in the United states since the
tendency under government control
to discourage Unnecessary travel
in the effort to keep roads clear
for their wartime functions, Desti-
nations of homeseeker tickets are
chiefly in Montana, North Dakota,
Washington and oregon. The
tickets are sold to residents Of ter
ritory east of the Missouri river.
The reductions will represent a
concerted effort on the part of the
railway companies to build UP pas
senser traffic, it was stated.

Liquor Valued at $4,000
Seized in New York;
Seven NationaIities Rep
resented Among Prisoners

New York. April 9.-Disguised as
tourists. their motor car covered
with mud, and their faces smeared
with dust, Izzy Einstein and Moe
Smith, New York prohibition
agents, today raided nearly two
Iscorescafes, arresting 26 proprietors
land employees and seized liquor
valued by them at $4,000.
1t was the first Sunday liquor
raid ever made here by federal
sleuths. Seven nationalities were
represented in the list of prisoners
who were rounded up after several
hours work. The biggest haul was
made in a former saloon at 335
Amsterdam avenue.
Izzy and Moe breezed into the
place this morning.
Did you enjoy that speech last
might 2" asked Izzy of Moe as they
approached the bar.
II did not" replied Moe disgust
edly, there was too much prohi-
bition in it."
"What VIII You Have?"
What viii you have, boys?"
asked the proprietor, smiling.
"A little hootch," brazenly re-
piled 1zzy. .-
The proprietor poured the liquor
in glass and the two agents
poured it into test tubes, which
they carried in their vest pockets.
The owner stunned by surprise,
then was placed under arrest.
A search of the place, Einstein
said, revealed 55 cases of cham-
payne and other imported wines,
several cases Of whiskey and gin,
and scores of bottles Of assorted
| liquors.
Before proceeding to the Bronx
Einstein and Smith changed their
disguises, assuming that of coach
drivers, high hats and all.
Il don't like these Sunday fu-
\ nerals," complained Izzy as they
walked into the first Bronx saloon.
| Neither do l." replied Moe. Il
hate to work on Sunday"
| The bartender who served them
with liquor agreed with them, say
ing: "l'd like to go to the Polo
grounds this afternoon, but the boss
won't let me off"
"Sure he will" replied Izzy.
Come along with me''-and he
flashed his shield.
| A summons was left for the
owner.
Liquor Plentiful.
| They had no difficulty, the
agents said, in getting liquor ex-
cept in one place where the bar
tender who was serving near beer
told them t. "beat it," and picked
up an empty bottle. Izzy and Moe
walked out, satisfied, they said,
that there was no chance of getting
anything ION the bartender today
! "But we may go back" Moe said
| The average price of a drink
Einstein said, was so cents.
And it is terrible stuff--worse
than furniture polish" he added.
