Rev. w. r. Haynie,
Glenmora, La.
Reverend SIR
We appreciate very much the
stand you have taken against the
immoral conditions of our town
and community, and the deep in
terest taken in the manhood of
our town. We commend you for
this and wish to pledge you our
unlimited 0support In any pro
gresslve movement for the NOR
al and religious uplift of our
town and community.
There is no neutral ground be-
tween right and wrong, and the
man who compromises with the
wrong is sure to lose in the end,
and he who stands for the right
is sure to win.
We understand that your pres
emit building is inadequate for
Sunday School purposes, that
you are striving to construct an
annex to the present church
building, and in appreciation OF
our sincere faith in you and be-
lieving in the work you are try
ing to do, and as an earnest OF
our pledge of support, We here
with hand you $43O which you
may use in this good work. 'Not

REPORT TRUST FUNDS
SHORT $4,000 TO $10O, 900.
Field examiners Of the State board of
accounts began an examination of the
books and accounts Of Richard V. Sipe
county clerk, today on the report that
the trust funds of the clerk were short
In sums yariously estimated at from
5000 to 100000.
A statement made today by one OF Mr..
Sipe's close friends, who has tried for a
week to help him untangle his financial
affairs, Is as follows:
"Dick Sipe hasn't enough money to
pay board for week. He has lost all
he ever had and a considerable amount
of trust funds that he controlled as
county clerk. For two weeks his friends
and bankers have been working with
him in the hopes Of Strengthening out
the tangle, but there isn't a chance to
do it.
"Sipe has been investing money in any
number Of wildcat schemes in Indian
apolis and the most of the stuff he has
bought is not worth nickel. He seems
to have developed a mania for giving
away money in the form of foolish In
vestments and it will take some time to
find out how much he has become in
volved. About all we know now is that
he has no money left"
Richard V. Sipe, generally known as
"Dick," is one of the most popular public
officials who has ever been in the court
house. His nomination and election was
brought about at a time when war con-
ditions made 1t impracticahle for him
to run for Congress, which was his de-
sire.

contest with Merrill Moores for the seat
in the House. Friends of Moores pre-
vailed upon him to stay out Of that con-
test by presenting the argument that
Moores was a staunch adherent of the
war measures of the Administration and
with considerable opposition in a pri-
mary, might lose out to a candidate who
would not support the Administration

CITY TO ASK
SHOWDOWN ON
PAVING COST
Board of Works Re-
jects Asphalt Bids
as Too High.

The opening gun In a fight upon
high prices Of asphalt pavements in
Indianapolis has been fred by City
Civil Engineer John L. Elliott who,
in a letter to the. board of public
works, recommended the rejection of
several bids and urged that out-of-
town contractors be invited to bid
upon future work. The board had
the letter read to about fifty contrac-
tors who were present to hear the
opening Of bids on a number of street
and sidewalk improvements.
Mr.. Elliott presented a table showing
whereas the United States Labor Bu-
reau figures the average price Of some
200 commodities is only 4e per cent higher
now than in 1915. The price of asphalt
paving per square yard, as contained in
bids Of local contractors is 125 per cent
higher than in 1915.
On Mr.. Elliott's recommendation, the
board rejected bids for the permanent
improvement with asphalt of Mansfield
street from Eighteenth to Twenty First
streets, Maple street from McCarty to
MOTIFS streets, Raymond street from
Madison avenue to Meridian street, and
st. Clair street from Highland avenue to
Oriental street.
The board, however. took under advise
ment Mr.. Elliotts Recommendation that
proposed street improvements be held
up until square yardage of $4,000 ac-
cumulates so as to make 1t profitable
for outside contractors to come into the
field.
The rejected bids were received Feb.
20. Mr.. Elliott said they averaged a
price per square yard on asphalt pave
ment Of $40. Compared with the prices
of everything that goes into the making
Of asphalt pavement and the bids of
contractors in other cities, Mr.. Elliott
said the local price should be between
$3.50 and So per square yard.

ingly to Mr.. Elliott's letter. followed the
