wish to be assured of an opportunity
to avail themselves of this privilege

TWO IN CIRCUIT COURT

The solution for the troubles of the
William Schulz family seems to be
the divorce court. For several months
in the fall, the differences Of William

Schulz were aired in another kind of
action in the municipal court, where
Mrs. Schulz charged that her husband
had cruely beaten her.
Schultz is west county farmer
owning property including stock and

Says He Beat Her.
The couple were married at Wood

are no children of their union. Mar
ried life appears to have continued
without any spectacular happenings
for about two years, and the trouble
began, Mrs. Schulz has said when they
came to Kenosha county to live.
In August, 1920, Schulz assaulted
her, Mrs. Schulz claims, and in the
month of September and again in the

bruised her. On the last occasion she
caused his arrest and he was convict

ON SEVERAL CHARGES

Cashier Bejnarowicz, 10, of los
Milwaukee avenue, found himself In
the municipal court this morning on
several charges. partly as the result
of missing license plate which caus-
ed him as much trouble as the lost
horseshoe nail which proved the I'M
doing or an army.
Friday evening at 7:40 o'clock the
police received report of stolen
license plate Ben Huempfner, n.
Main street, informed the police that
he had parked his Ford touring car in
one of the sheds of the Allen tannery
near the foot of Milwaukee avenue,
and when he came to get the car at
the close of day he found the front
license plate gone. He believed that
it had been stolen.
Youth Brought to Office.
Later in the evening Cashier Be-
inarowicz was arrested by Police Of.
Hcer Cunningham. He was charged
with violating the arterial highway
ordinance at the corner Of Sheridan
road and Prairie avenue. Bejnaro-
WlcZ LOlQ Juuge SLAIeI JhtS hoitlAHE
that he did stop but his car skidded
a bit.
Captain Clausen informed the court
that Cashier was driving SO carelessly
at the time that he narrowly missed
hitting two girls on the street, and
that there were other charges against
him.

Officials Probe Sending of
Mail Here Telling of
Danish Lottery.
HARD TO PROSECUTE
Postal Authorities Here For
ward Report to Washington
But Admit Difficulties.

Several Kenoshans had q most in
teresting letter awaiting them in the
mail this morning.
1t was postmarked Copenhagen,
Denmark, and from the exterior ap-
peared to be letter from a friend
which might be travelling in Denmark.
Within the recipient found notices of
a system of lotteries which are being
held in Denmark, known as the
Danish Colonial Money Lottery. These
letters described in glowing terms
the chances offered to win fortune
on a lottery ticket, the grand prize
being a million francs or about $780,
900 and other prizes ranging down to
few dollars.
The interesting part about the
whole affair is that lotteries are
illegal in this country and no an
nouncements regarding them are al
lowed to be sent through the mails.
Start Probe Here.
Several Kenoshans who received
these lurid advertisements asking
them to buy tickets for this lottery
knew that it was contrary to law and
consequently turned over their letters
to the postal officials here for in
vestigation.
Certainly such letters are con-
trary to law said NJ. F. Zens, as
sistant postmaster in Kenosha, when
interviewed regarding the affair this
morning "But what can be done about
it 90
eve will take these letters and for
ward them to Washington. The post
al officials there, however, are handi-
capped by the fact that this is inter
national mail and all sorts of red tape
is necessary before any action can be
secured"
Kenoshans Must Be Wary.
Kenoshans are advised to have
nothing to do with the lottery mas
much as the laws in this country pro-
hibits such a thing. The laws irf Den
mark, however, probably permit the
conducting of such lottery and for
that reason it would be most difficult
to put an end to the stopping in Den
mark of the letters such as were re-
ceived in Kenosha today. i.
1t was also stated that on Friday
several Kenoshans received other of
the Spanish prisoner swindle letters
despite the fact that dispatches from
Washington declare that the swindler
who devised this scheme has finally
been arrested. 1t is thought probable,
however, that several other swindlers,
seeing the prosperity which attended
the original scheme have taken it up
and that it will be some time before
all the letters of this nature are stop
ped. Kenoshans were also advised to
pay no attention to letters of this
nature.

Start Action on
Widening Projects

The proposed widening of three
streets was being threshed out in court
this morning when jury was called
to decide on whether or not the pro-
jects were public necessities. The
projects in question were the widening
of Ashland court and Oakland avenue,
and of North Sheridan road at Broad
street. The latter project is for the
removing Of jog in the street at this
point. Should the jury decide that the
projects are necessary the next legal
step will be the appointing of com
missions to establish benefits and
damages in the cases. The jury today
was taken to the various streets to
make personal survey of the ter
ritory in question.

TO MAKE PUBLIC
GASOLINE PRICES
Proposed Bill Would Turn
Pitiless Publicity On
Gas Prices.
HEARING APRIL 3RD

Madison, Wis. Full publicity of
gasoline prices in an effort to prevent
secret discrimination will be proposed
at a public hearing here April 3 before
the commissioner of markets, Com
missioner Edward A. Nordman and At
torney General Herman L. Ekern an
nounced today.
Determinations of this kind appear
in several forms such as the sale of
gasoline to commercial customers at
service stations at two cents below the
price posted there and the granting
of special concessions in the form of
rebates and discounts allowed only to
favored customers" the officials stat
ed
'The proposed order deals with only
q part of the entire problem, it being
merely method of exact facts avail
able alike to the public and to public
officers dealing with the problem.
Questions of trust or monopoly prac-
tices must necessarily be dealt with
separately, but it is felt that much
of this will be eliminated if the bust
ness has to be done in broad daylight"
Not Prohibit Discounts.
Granting of discounts is accordance
with business practices will not be
prohibited by the order, provided the
facts are given the public, according
to the statement.
''The granting of special prices to
any customer or class of customers
without making that fact known pub
licly is an unlawful method of com
posed plan would prevent this by re-
curing that a permanent record be
lent by each jobber, wholesaler or re-

Blaine Forces Resort to
Amendments of Tax Bill
to Catch Socialists.
IN SENATE WEDNESDAY
Content of New Amendments
Kept Secret but Is Stated
They Will Win Votes.

Madison, Wis.-The administration
income tax bill, invalid of the Wis
consin legislature, has in the past few
days, undergone. treatment at the
hands of tax specialists, called in by
Governor j. j. Blaine and chairman
C. H. johnson of the senate commit
tee on corporations and taxation.
An unofficial report on the condi-
ton of the bill today was that it
would survive and probably make its
appearance in the senate Wednesday,
but swathed in amends, one, at least,
affixed by tax experts.
The new amendment, looked upon as
remedy of the last resort to side
step defeat for the bill in the senate,
has been prepared to attract the at
tention of the Socialist members of
the senate, who heretofore have looked
upon the bill with disfavor. The bill
needs the Socialist vote to obtain pas
sage, according to unofficial polls
taken by all factions lined up for and
against the bill.
To Catch Socialist Vote.
Administration leaders today would
not say what the amendment would
contain, but were more optimistic
concerning it's fate.
Senator j. E. eastman, Denmark,
expressed himself as confident the bill
would pass the senate. This opinion
was concurred in by several other
senate administration leaders. Sena-
tor, eastman said he did not consider
the amendments as Drastic changes in
the bill, but declared they were ma
terial enough to win votes for. the bill.
The fact that it is admitted that the
bill will come to the senate Wednes-
day in amended form without the
amendment or amendments having
been read once or printed, may work
a further postponement of action to
the senate for it is virtually certain
that opposing senator's will insist up
on a delay, in order to carefully an
alyze and examine the changes.
Socialists Have Amendments.
Meanwhile the Socialists have pre-
pared and will present at least three
amendments, according to Senator
William A. Quick, Milwaukee.
When postponement was obtained
for the bill last week, it was with the
idea that amendments would be sub
mitted within a few days to permit
reading and the printing there be-
fore senate consideration Wednesday.
Apparently none of the factions in
terested in the bill were willing to
lay all their cards on the table and
no new amendments were offered to
the legislature this week.
