Stopped for Speeding.

O'Hare had stopped the machine
and ordered the driver to turn about
and drive to police headquarters to be
booked on a charge Of violating the
speed law. In response to the order
the machine turned about and then
suddenly stopped.
Pulling out a bill fold the driver
said: Here I'll furnish bonds now,
but l haven't time to go to the police
station"
"That is not allowed" O'Hare told
him. go ahead-the quicker you get
started the quicker you can get going
again But can't take the bonds"

started to swing his machine around,
O'Hare threw the clutch of his ma
chine in gear and started to turn with
him. He was next to the curb and
slightly behind, when suddenly the
automobile swung sharply to the
right and headed directly for the Of
| fcer's motorcycle. Realizing that
crash was inevitable, O'Hare leaped
to save himself from being crushed
under the wreckage.
Smashes MotOrcycle-Flees.
The next instant the car struck the
motorcycle and running over it, re-
duced it to. pile of worthless junk.
Then, according to Q'Hare, the car

peared toward the Lake Shore road
and Racine.

only answer was more speed, and the

in the darkness.
| Sudden though the attack and es-
cape had been, it had not been too
quick for O'Hare to jot down the num-
Der which was dealers license 557A-
Wis. %.
Making for police box, O'Hare re-
ported what had happened. Capt.
Emil Clausen, Sergt. Matthew Kirsch
and Officers Edward Pecan and Perry
Tusler leaped into one of the high
powered police touring cars and gave
chase. With Tusler at the wheel the
big machine roared along the Lake
Shore road with speedometer dial
swinging DekWeeH 90 anu OF miles an
hour.
1t was not until the Kenosha Of
fcers had gotten onto Wisconsin
street in Racine that the vampire
roadster was sighted. A nasty check
showed the the number was correct.
Then driving along beside them, Capt.
Clausen ordered them to halt. How
ever, the machine continued to travel.
It was only stopped when Tusler
cramped the police car in front of
them crowding them to the curb.
Herzog was Immediately arrested
and in custody Of Capt. Clausen start
ed for Racine police headquarters
where charges were preferred against
him for the Kenosha officials.
Fire Six Shots in Tire. .
A few minutes after the two had
started for the station, the motor be-
gan to roar and salesman who was
passenger, threw the machine in
gear. Seeing that the car was about
to make good an escape, the officers
who were guarding it whipped out
their guns and put six shots into the
left rear tire in rapid succession. With
the tire fiat, the machine stopped
with grinding of brakes.

OF SURFACE
ON POWER REQUIRED
Tractive Effort Experiments Con-
denim Earth Roads

That the surface of the road has
much to do with the amount of effort
required to move a wheeled vehicle
and to keep it moving is we'll known
Just what these various efforts are
has been determined by series of ex-
periments conducted by the Horse
Owners Association of America, by
means of testing apparatus invented
by Mr.. Z. V. Collins, of the State
Agricultural College, at Ames. Iowa.
According to these experiments. a
given load of 200 pounds was started
by team of horses on a level brick
surface by 200 pounds pull while
the same load on asphalt surface re
CURED 800 pounds pull and a good
cinder and dirt surface needed $40
pounds pull. A concrete road allowed
the team to start the load with a pull
of IFS pounds.
The experiments further demon
strated that the character" of the
horses involved had something to do
with the ability of team to pull a
load, since small team of bronchos
weighing nearly five hundred pounds
less than other teams of larger horses,
were able, apparently through game
ness, to start and pull larger loads
than their competitors.

EDITORIAL

WILL the United States stop build
ing motor cars, close up its factories
and return to horse-drawn vehicles !?
Absurd question! Yet there is only
one alternative; if we are not to lose
the economic and social benefits OF
motor transportation, we must sup
ply, roads upon which the power We
hicles may run.
1t is impossible to separate the
water from the wave, the gold from
the bracelet, or the track from the
locomotive. 1t is equally impossible
to separate the road from the truck,
or the passenger car from the high
way. They are halves of a whole;
transportation is never vehicle alone,
or highway alone; it is both together.
Our roads were planned and built
for means of transportation which
is gone The earliest highways were
for horse riders, the stage coach came
next, after which we had the buggy
and the wagon. The narrow road, the
steep grade, the soft surface were all
admissible for these, none of them
are economic for the swift and power
full motor.
We have improved our high
ways--some of thcmAand widened a
few, but we still build road with the
idea that it will Cast" but few years,
and need constant repairs" We still
build in widths predicated upon slow
moving vehicles. and we still wind our
highways up hill and down dale and
around devious curves because it is
easiest" and Cheapest" SO to do.
That Ella is acnel The new one is
fairly here. We must either build our
roads for our modern vehicles, or
scrap motor transportation. AS the
latter is unthinkably absurd, it seems
logical to believe that the era OF the
wide, expensive. permanent, hard sur
face road is here

The act OF March End, 1881, which
limited or was supposed 10 limit the
power OF Federal Courts, provided
as follows:
That the power OF the several cour's
al the United States to issue attach
uents and inlljct summary punish
mcnt Tor contempt OF court SHALL
NOT BE CONSTRUED TO Elk
TEND TO ANY CASES except the
misbehavior OF any person or persons

so near thereto as to obstruct the adj
ADMINISTRATION OF justice
The Supreme Court OF the y. S.
sustained the CONSTITUTIONAL
irY OF this act in Tx partc Robinson
10Th Wall. sos, III the following Ian
guage
The act, i'll terms, applies to all
courts; whether it can be held to linn
it the SUPREME COURT, which
derives its existence and powers from
the CONSTITUTION, may perhaps
he matter of doubt. But that it APP
plies TO Gu. s. Circuit and District
Courts, there can be no question.
These courts were CREATED by
ACT OF CONGRESS. Their powers
aud duties depend upon the act calling
them into existence or subsequent acts
extending or limiting their Jurisdic-
ton The act of 1881 is therefore to
them the law of specifying the cases
in which summary punishment Tor
contempts may be inflicted----AS thus
seen, the power of these courts in the
punishment of contempts can only be
exercised to insure order and decor
UNI in their PRESENCE. ----------,
When the Act OF Congress was
passed it was asserted amid great
applause that never in the future
history OF America would any Fed
erai Judge dare to usurp any such
power as that OF summary punish
ing for constructive contempt
Thus, since 1881, no Federal Court
power until the year 1914 when a
Federal Judge in Ohio did assume
such authority in the case against
Negley Cochran, editor OF the Toledo
News Bee, and, despite the very
plain terms and intent OF the act OF
March, End, 1881 the decision was
upheld by the United States Supreme
Court by majority opinion.
Hence, our Federal courts have
taken the very act of Congress,
which was intended to forever pro
hibt Federal Judges from Furnishing
for Constructive ContemptS and
have either disrcgardcd the Act en-
trcly or construed it to mean the
delegation OF a power which the Act
itself intended to destroy forever
Such Decision Brought
Judiciary Into Disrespect
The most shameful chapters in
American court decisions are those
written by Judges in cases of Con-
structive Contempt. These decisions
have done more to bring the Judi
ciary into disrespect and contempt
than all the red rawlings OF all the
soap-box orators and Bolshevic writ
ing since the American Constitution
was penned.
The spectacle of Judge claiming
he has such power by INHERENT
RIGHT, when the Bill of Rights of
cur Federal and State Constitutions
