Untaxed Illinois gas wears out
Indiana roads as much as the
Isl heavily taxed local product. High
licensed Kentucky cars are no
more dangerous on the streets Of
Louisville than cars bearing the
cheaper Indiana plates.
The diversity of motor regula-
tons existing in the various States
encourage such evasions Of the
spirit, If not the letter. Of the laws.
Gas taxes vary all the way from
nothing in Illinois to cents a gal

range from nominal sums to heavy
taxation. There are forty-eight
varieties Of State motor acts.
The automobile is no longer a
local affair. Except after a grade

similar unfortunate circumstance,
it is an active piece Of property.

And You Can't Laugh

It'll SMITH, New York's Governor, attend
Ia ed Democratic picnic in Chicago the
other day and made an excellent speech.
Newspapers quite generally declared it was
announcement that he was willing to be
gcted President in 1928, for he discussed ma
A6onal issues.
Smith s candidacy will lend interest to the
Democratic contest even if it doesn't lend
hope. It will mean war, probably repetition
Of the war with McAdoo, which made the six
teen days of the 1924 convention so terrible.
If Smith doesn't go after the Ku-Klux Klan,
the Ku-Klux Khan will go after him. It is I'M
fortunate, but it is inevitable. 1t is unfortu-
nate because Smith, record in public office
has on the whole been admirable; he has filled
what is probably the most difficult governor
ship in any State with conspicuous success.
Nothing was said by the New York Cover
Apor in his Chicago picnic speech to arouse the
Elan, however. Those who expected him to

far as his immediate, sympathetic audience
has concerned he doubtless succeeded, for
Smith s grasp of public affairs is real.
But there again Smith is up against a
prejudice that he will find hard to overcome.

Now
BY Hal Cochran

Whatever your task. It is fair that
I ask, just how do you handle it
daily? Does toll appear tough? Is
the working road rough, and do you,
or don't you, work ghly?
The easiest job can quite easily
rob a person of spirit that's proper.
The habit Of shirk with the every
day work can make a small task
seem a whopper.
When work, piled up high. meet
the average mans eye, whenever he
can he'll postpone it. His thought
that tomorrow will cut down the
sorrow is wrong, and he well might
have known it.
You know you must toll and, "ac-
cording to Hoyle," the best plan is
merely to do it. When you've drifted
behind, you can make up your mind
to settle right down and go to 1t.
Tomorrow is wrong cause it's too
far along. Today is the when and
the how. That worry will leave you
if you'll just believe you can do
what you ought to do now!

They have been operating their
cars with Indiana licenses, pur-
chased in Jeftersonville and other
Hoosier border cities, because In
diana licenses are cheaper than

Representatives Of the Ken

tigates the situation, estimate
1900 Bluegrass motorists have
posed as Hoosiers in buying H.

On the other hand, enterprising
,Hoosiers living near the Illinois

ana's gas tax, gasoline is cheaper.

What an Auto Does to Us

only stir or noise we can make
among our fellows IS with an auto
mobile horn. Some folk seem to be
heve that by driving very fast with
the muller open, the spectators win
be deceived into thinking that a
prince or potentate passes. Into such
straits does our vanity lead us. ..,.,
The automobile provides human
ity with the means OF making people
stare, and sometimes the faster we
drive the more powerful we believe
ourselves. It IS this great national
show-of which costs us so dearly In
blood and tears.

HE law provides JnaC Scnoo4 Dodru e1ec"
tions shall be non-partisan. Let's keep
that way.
When partisan system is discussed most
people think simply of the Democratic party
or the Republican party. But the word part1-
san, especially when applied 10 local election,
may have other meanings
There really is no reason for Democratic
party or a Republican party in indianapolis
politics. Neither party has fixed or perma-
nent policy. The Democrats simply are
group playing the game of politics to put their
ticket over. The Republicans comprise siml-
lar group working to the same end.
Then, is not group, organized for the
purpose of putting over ticket of school
board candidates, partisan in the same sense?
It is hard to see the difference, except that
party labels are missing and the groups are
not divided along customary party lines.
It would be unfortunate indeed if any
group Of citizens, organized for any purpose,
should be given control Of the school board
in the coming election. The school board
should be elected to serve all the city. There
should be no Estates" of any description In
such a. non-partisan election. Unfortunately,
however, a number Of states" backed by vari-
GUS groups with various ideas are in the field.
The voter can serve his community best
nv ignoring all such Estates" and by voting

ity, integrity and capacity to serve the com
munity to the best interests of every one.

EAST OUTRANKS WEST
 WINNING REMNANTS IN
 BOTH MAJOR LEAGUES
;By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Apr 16.-When it comes to winning baseball pennants the eastern major league cities have a decided advantage over their dis tant neighbors on the western swings of the two circuits
 In the National League, Boston has won thirteen flags and New York has won twelve. Chicago has taken eleven, Brooklyn five, Pitts burgh four, Philadelphia two and Cin- cinnati one. St. Louis has yet to score in the pennant column. The old Baltimore club won three times, while Providence landed in first place twice and Detroit once But those championships hark back so far that most fans have forgotten them.
 Honors in the American League are more evenly divided. Philadel- phia and Boston lead with six flags each; Chicago is third with five; De- troit and New York have taken three each, and Washington and Cleve- land have finished first once.
 Here are the pennant records:

NATIONS GOLFERS
 WATCH CAREER OF MAUREEN ORCUTT

NEW YORK, Apr. 16.-For wom- ens national gold champion in the near future New Jersey presents a seventeen-year-old high school girl who, for lack of competition in her own sex, often plays with men and defeats them.
 The first thing the gallary at turnament notices when Miss Mau- reen Orcutt is on the first tee is her bobbed blonde locks, tied with a rib bon of flaming red or other hue. Then the distance that ball goes oyershadows all other considerations. Her hitting is amazing, and has been so since she started to play the game as little girl.
 At the woman's national tourna- ment at the Hollywood Golf Club, Deal, N. J., four years ago, a mite of an entrant who wore half-hose and skirts the shortness of which was u IIllulSu US ISI SILS dIlu dSC, dIu not by fashion, stepped up to the first tee in the qualifying round and caus- ed a chorus of surprised "ahs" when she smashed the ball 225 yards, a good drive for any golfer with regard 10 sex or age That was Maureen. A storm came up shortly after that drive and helped to run her score up to 119, which failed eto qualify.
 Miss Odcutt has had much expert ence and her share of victories since then, having won the woman's state championship last year. When there is no woman's tournament for her to enter, however, usually the only wor thy opponents she can find are male

MEMORIAL BRIDGE
WORK is UNDER WAY
Borings Begun Preparatory to
Framing of Specifications for
Arlington Structure.

The first physical step toward the
erection of the Arlington Memorial
Bridge was taken today when boring
was started on the rivers edge oppo-
site the Lincoln Memorial. Work
men have been engaged for several
days in the erection of drilling ma
chinery, and the boring started at
1910 o'clock this morning.
The first hole was being sunk on
the edge of the rip-rap work between
the Lincoln Memorial and George
town channel buoy No. IL. This Is the
first of two holes which will be sunk
to determine the type of foundation
for the bridge piers. With the in
formation obtained, bids will be asked
for the actual construction work of
the supporting piers.
Capt. S. A. Bowman is in charge
Of the actual drilling and the sam
pies are being handled by III. HI.
James, both attached to the United
States Engineers office for this dis
trict.
Samples are being taken every five
feet and the drilling will continue
for depth of 10 feet after the sur
face of bed rock is hit. The hole
which is being sunk today is rs feet
below the center line of the proposed
bridge, and another will be sunk SO
feet above the center line. This
work, engineers explain, is to de-
termine the slope of the bed rock at this
point.
1t is estimated that it will take
a little more than a day to sink each
hole with the hydraulic drilling ma
chinery which is being used.

Golden Base Ball
As Pass to Games

A season pass to National League
base ball games in the form of
half a small gold base ball was
presented to President Coolidge
today by John Heydler, president of
that league. The Presidents name
is engraved on the fiat surface,
and the pass is numbered l.
In making the presentation Mr..
Heydler invited the President 10
attend the game in Boston on May,
s, between the Chicago Cubs and
the Boston Braves, celebrating the
50th anniversary of the league.
Although unable to accept, Mr..
Heydler said Mr. Coolidge expressed
the hope that he might see some
National League teams in action
before the close of the season. He
said he greatly enjoyed last Falls
world series games between the
New York Giants and the Wash
ington Senators.
