BERLIN COUSIN OF JITNEY
FORCES DOWN TAXI FARES
Introduction of Small Auto Reduc-

Held Notoriously High.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN, October 3.-The German
cousin of the "jitney" is forcing down
taxicab fares in Berlin. Since the
sterilization Of the mark the cost Of
taxi riding has been notoriously high
in the German capital. but the intro
duction Of the small auto is proving
a corrective for this. These smaller
cars. although less palatial and roomy
than some of the big limousines
which have been doing taxi service on
Berlin streets, are found to get the
traveller to his destination just as
quickly.
The small autos" came in with
the announcement that they would
cost just Is per cent Of the fares
charged for the larger cars, and as a
result the big taXis were soon seen
standing idle at most of the parking
places while their smaller competi-
tors did a lucrative business. Owners
of the larger cars soon followed and
announced a cut of Is per cent.

CITY COUNCIL TAKES SENSIBLE VIEW OF PAVING
During the past few weeks Mayor Perrett and the MEM
bers of the City Council have been almost torn asunder by OPP
ponents Of and proponents for paving of the business district.
They have listened to all kinds of conceivable arguments against
the paving and have likewise listened to all kinds of arguments
for paving.
Last night at the regular monthly meeting Of the three trus-
teeS-1. j. Rende, Pete johnson and Fred Frlend-al voted
favorably on a resolution declaring intention to pave. Within
ten days those property owners affected will be permitted to ap-
pear before the council and object to such paving if they so de-
sire.
Now that the Council has taken a definite stand in favor of
paving it is we'll that the matter be looked at in a sane and SEN
sible light. In the first place the creation of this paving dis
trict does not mean a general increase of taxes in RawEns as
pavement over a period of ten years. The district is as small
as it can be made to insure the cheapest cost of construction.
1t has been the history of every city where paving has been
constructed that adjoining property has increased in value far
exceeding the cost of the paving. 1t has always proven true
also that there has been a big saving in the expense of conduct
ing business because of the fact that the dirt nuisance in bust
ness houses has been practically eliminated. All know the enor-
nous loss, especially in a city such as Rawlins, that is caused
through sand and dirt sitting into business houses and damag
ing goods.
Rawlins has advanced wonderfully during the past few
good as could be wished. However, the future of the city is ex-
ceptionally bright but in order to "cash in" on our opportunities
it is the duty of each and every resident to at all times look ahead
and not go backwards or even stand still.
The people affected directly by this paving program should
stop and realize that the principal difference between a town
and a city is paving. No difference how large a town is Meth
er the residents thereof nor outsiders can possibly class it as a
"city" unless the business district, at least, is paved.
The State Highway Department is paving from the city linn
its east for approximately eight miles and if Rawlins failed to
put in at least a few blocks of paving, we would be overlooking
Rawlins is not dead; Rawlns is alive and growing and
only the apathy and unprogressiveness of her citizens can pos
sbly keep her from within the next few years being right in the
forefront of Wyoming cities.
The mayor and every member of the city council deserve
congratulations for their stand last night in favor of a larger
and better Rawlins.

CHAPTER III.

Grant, a little later in the morning.
presented himself at the office of the
newspaper in New York which was
generally considered to be the most
influential and weighty in the metrop-
oils. Its correspondents were to be
found in every capital of the world
One of the editors was received week
ly at the White House. 1t stood for
what was sane and beneficent in
American legislation and the cause
which it eSpoused was seldom known
to languish. The editor. Daniel Stone
ham, was an old friend of Grants, and
on sending up his card he was shown
at once into his presence. The two
men shook hands warmly.
Good man, Grant" Stoneham ex.
claimed. Glad to see you back again.
One hears of you hobnobbing with
kings and prime ministers and the
great people of the earth. Quite time
you showed a little interest in your
own country"
We'll, I'm here on the old job
Grant declared, sinking into the easy
chair to which his friend had pointed
and accepting a cigarette.
THE deuce you are,' the other OBJ
served, with some surprise. "I
thought since you had become mil
lionaire you'd turned Stacker.

year or so.'
I've been doing much more difficult
and unpleasant work than ever before
in my life," Grant confided. I've
been doing Secret Service work which
is only half official. That is to say,
that if l get into trouble I'm not,
acknowledged and if I do any good
work the department gets the credit
That doesn't matter though. The
point is that I've made a scoop on
my own. There's trouble brewing"
What sort of trouble?" Stoneham
demanded. do you mean anything
in connection with the invitation from
Nice?"

That invitation would never have
been sent but for me-
