NEXT THURSDAY WILL BE
A BIG DAY AT CTTRA

Next Thursday, July 9th, will be
a big day in Citra when good roads
enthusiasts will gather there from
throughout Marion county and from
many other points in the state for a
genuine old fashioned barbecue and a
good roads rally in behalf of the links
in the highways between Citra and
Orange Springs and Citra and the
new road across Orange Lake.
Preparations for the day are going
forward rapidly and a big crowd is
expected. A speakers stand, band
stand and sheltered tables for the
serving of the barbecue and several
booths are already being erected in
the shade of the beautiful live oak
trees in Citra's public park
The barbecue will be in charge of
Jim Gates, the famous Georgia bar
becue artist. Prominent speakers
who are good roads advocates will
make addresses. The program of the
day will get under way about 11:20
Thursday morning. Dinner will be
served about 2 o'clock. The Ocala
band will furnish the music.
A general committee on arrange
ments consists of G. A. Sommers,
chairman, E. I. Wartmann and w. T.
DuPree. All of Citra's stores viii be
closed next Thursday. Cold drinks
will be sold in the park by the Citra
Improvement Society for the benefit
of this organization. The barbecue,
of course, will be free to everyone.
The purpose of the day is to center
public interest in the completion of
the two links of highway between
Citra and Orange Springs and Citra
and Island Grove. The Citra- Orange
Springs link of about twelve miles
connects at Orange Springs with a
good road into Palatka and at Citra
with good road into Ocala and is a
part of short route from Jackson
vile to st. Petersburg. The short
stretch of about a mile between Citra
and Orange Lake would connect with
the road now being built across the
lake by Alachua county and is part
of what will eventually be short
route between Tampa, Ocala and
Jacksonville.

when the senator will lay before the

made apparent that there existed a
conspiracy here which should be in

While the preliminary investigation
conducted for Senator King by a

conspiracy. it was pointed out that
it would be necessary for an official
investigation in order to bring out
the facts necessary to make a prima
facie case against those believed to
be participating in the unlawful prac-
tices.
Should the district attorney fail to
take up the investigation started by
Senator King there is a probability
that a senatorial investigation might
be sought, SO strong is the belief that
the high costs now prevailing are
due to combinations.
The information needed on which to
develop all the facts would have to
come through an official inquiry by
some governmental agency. as the
DR. reliminary investigation has gone
as far as possible. Even that inves.
tisation. it was pointed out. indicated
that there was a strong possibility
that evidence Of collusion. similar to
that found during the Lockwood in

here by an official inquiry.

THREATS ALLEGED
IN NEWBERRY FIGHT
Senator. Townsend, Backing
Colleague, Makes Charge
in Senate Debate.
DRAMATIC CLIMAX SEEN
Galleries Are Crowded as Senators
Engage in Verbal Battle
Over Expenditures.

Senate debate on the Newberry
case came to a dramatic climax yes
terday when Senator Townsend of
Michigan. speaking in behalf of his
colleague. declared that certain in
terests had threatened his political
life II he voted to sustain the fight
OF Senator Newberry to his seat over
the contest initiated by Henry Ford.
Senator Townsend frankly declared
that If he consulted only his political
future he might be tempted to be
silent on the whole question of the
Ford-Newberry contest. But with
great feeling he declared he could
not and would not take the easier
path. for in so doing he would stuI-
tify himself and do violence to his
own conscience and courage.
Ready to Be Questioned.
The Michigan senator. describing
Senator Newberry as "the peer of
any man in this chamber" said that
when his colleague appeared on the
floor tomorrow he would be ready to
submit to reasonable questioning. but
that he would not subject himself to
cross-examination or heckling.
"Ah. I don't doubt" he declared,
that this good man who is this
moment senator would give every
dollar he had il he had never enter
ed the campaign. He has suffered
the tortures of hell; he has been
vilified and accused and blamed, and
it's all the worse because I'm con-
vinced it's a political job"
Turning to members on the demo-
cratic side. Senator Townsend told
time when some of them, like New
berry, had suffered from the foolish
acts of their friends.
Senator Townsend declared he had
received letters threatening him with
defeat If he attempted to speak for
Senator Newberry or voted to keep
him in the Senate.
"And what will it cost in millions
of dollars" he asked, 'if this at
tempt to coerce these senator's stand
ing with Newberry is carried out?
1 have seen printed circulars sent out
to the people of my state urging
them to get in touch with me and to
defeat me if speak or vote for Sem
ator Newberry."
Recalls LOrimer Case.
Placing his hands on the shoulder
of Senator Jones, republican, WASH
ington, Senator Townsend declared
that when the Washington senator
first voted in C ommittee to unseat
Lorimer and then, after n full in
vestigation. voted to seat him, there
was instantly raised cry to defeat
him.
But, thank God" he added. "the
threats fell on empty ears and the
senator from Washington was re-
turned here. despite his stand in the
Lorimer case"
