ASSEMBLY RETURNS
TWO SENATE BILLS
Reverses Former Action on Gettelman
Bill Permitting Motor Buses
Same Speed as Autos.

Madison; Wis. Refusing to agree
with the senate on two Legislative pro-
posals, the assembly today returned
one to the upper branch and asked for
a conference committee to decide the
other.
The Weber resolution, already adopt
ed by the assembly, to increase legis-
latcrs' pay to $1,000 session, was
returned to the senate after the lower
house refused 80 to 2 to concur in a
senate amendment to allow the legis-
latute to fix the amount Of the salary.
Assemblyman Weber indicated that he
would ask for a conference commit
tee if the senate refuses to recede
from its position.
The assembly refused, 81 to Ia to
recede from it's position on the at
torney generals 100000 appropriation
bill, after the senate vote non-concur-
rence in an amendment returning the
special assistant attorney general to
the department Of markets. A con-
ference committee of both houses to
attempt a settlement was requested.
Reversing it's attitude on the Get
lehman bill to permit motor buses to
operate at the same speed as other
automobiles, the assembly reconsidered
its failure to order to third reading
and concurred in the measure, under
suspension Of rules. 1t also concur

Strips in County Are
Opened Today.
LAST FOR SEASON

Kenosha county highway officials
will complete the work of opening bids
for the carrying out of the highway
paving program for the present sea-
son when bids will be opened this
afternoon for the three remaining
strips of highway in the county TO be
paved this season. The bids are for

from the Somers station to its inter
section with Highway 81, and the
extension of the paving on the Burl-
ington road for three miles.
Bids have been received from road
contractors from several cities and it
is anticipated that most favorable bids
for the work will be received
Is Third Letting.
This is the third letting of highway
work in Kenosha county for the pres
ent season. Several weeks ago bids
were opened for the nine miles of
highway on the Silverlake- Bassetts-
Twin Lakes road to be paved from the
Geneva road to Twin Lakes. A few
weeks later bids were opened for the
widening Of parts of the Burlington
road and of the Somers road.

in both of the above cases giving rise
to belief that there will also be

WAR. MOTHERS IN
CAMPAIGN HERE
Local Chapter to Have
"Carnation Day" in Trib-
ute to Mothers.
ON SATURDAY, MAY 9

The annual "Carnation Day" cele-
bration in Kenosha in honor of the
Mothers of Kenoshans, has been set
for Saturday, May 8, according to an
announcement made today by Mrs.
Cora Lane, of the local chapter, who
is also State War Mother. Elaborate
preparations are being made in Ke-
nosha by a committee Of War Mothers
of which Mrs. Ella Borkenhagen is
the head, for observing the day IN
Kenosha.
The day is usually heralded with
official proclamation and considerable
enthusiasm on the part Of the War
Mothers here. The first successful
Carnation Day was held in Kenosha
last May and small sum of money
was raised at that time for the work
of the organization.
Is National Day.
This year the Kenosha committee
seeks to sell 10000 carnations and the
goal set for receipts is $1,000. A COM
mittee of women will be stationed at
the corners of prominent street inter-
sections and sell these carnations for
any contribution which the donor
wishes to give. The sums thus re-
ceived will be divided so that the ma
tional organization of War Mothers
gets fifty per cent of the receipts with
the state and local branch dividing the
remainder. The welft . and relief
work which is carried on with these
funds is already nationwide by-word
among all organizations of a similar
character. The War Mothers have
been recognized by the national gov
eminent with charter granted by
congressional act landing the lofty
purposes Of the order and putting
the stamp of approval of congress up
on it's work.
A One-Day Campaign.
Since Sunday, May 10, is to be cele-
b1ated nationally as Mothers Day, 1T
has been seen most fitting to observe
the Saturday preceding as Carnatlon
Dav. The Community Chest Fund as
ISOLATION has given it's formal sane
ton Of the drive for funds in Keno
sha. The type of disposition which is
made of the funds takes from it the
designation of being local campaign
and for that reason the drive is being
allowed to continue in Kenosha for one
day. The War Mothers are not listed
among the organizations to which the
Community Chest gives assistance, it
is pointed out.
Additional information on the plans
which are being drawn up for the drive
in Kenosha will be announced by the
chairmen of the various committees in
charge of the work as they are formu-
| lated.

DELEGATES HERE
FOR CONVENTION
Wisconsin Federation of
Music Clubs Holds
First Session.
MRS. MILFORD in CHAIR

Eighty delegates, representing sixty
music clubs of the state, arrived, here
this morning to attend the convention
of the Wisconsin Federation of Music
clubs, which opened with meeting of
the board of directors this morning.
Mrs F. w. Wilford, Beloit, president
of the federation, outlined briefly the
program of business to be accom-
plished during the four days Of the
conclave. The members Of the board
were entertained by the Schubert club
at luncheon this noon at the Elks' club.
The formal opening Of the conven-
ton took place this afternoon at 1880
o'clock, at the Elks' club, when the
gathering was called to order by Mrs.
Wilford and the Invocation made by
the Rev Malcolm J. Van Zandt.
The welcome to the delegates from
the city of Kenosha was voiced by c.
M. Osborn, city manager. He con
graduated the Schubert club on their
activity in bringing such group Of
women to Kenosha.
Emphasizing Music Here.
Kenosha, he said, will benefit even
more from the visit Of the Fedora
ton, than the delegates themselves,
because at the present time an effort
is being made to emphasize music and
the other cultural arts, and to arouse
community interest and enthusiasm to
the point where the finest results pos
sible may be attained. Such gather
ings as the Federation Of Music con-
vention help to stimulate artistic
endeavor and inspire further achieve
ment. He extended the freedom of
the city to the delegates.
Greetings from the Schubert club,
the hostess organization, were brought
by Mrs. T. E. DAWN, president. She
expressed the pleasure of the club
at being permitted to entertain the
convention this year.
The response to the addresses of
welcome, was made by Mrs. Frank w
Wilford. She told several interesting
facts about the status OF Wisconsin
of most of the other states of the
union in the progress in musical de-
velopment represented by, the several
organizations in the federation. The
idea of uniting individual local music
clubs into state federation originated
in Wisconsin"
Assembly singing was led by An
thony Olinger of Waukesha. At 1880
o'clock a lecture-recital on "The
Dignity of Church Music" was given
by Mrs. George Forsee Of Kansas City.

Weeks Best Good Turn.


All for a tawny pup he had never
seen before, Scout Fred Hill of New
ton, Mass, braved treacherous hole
in an recovered lake. Though
plunged into chilling waters, Hill sue
ceeded in pulling the drowning dog to
safety.
Topper, a thoroughbred Airedale
was trotting along the frozen surface
of Lake Crystal, when the ice sudden
ly caved in. The boy, from the other
side of the lake indistinctly hearing
low cries of distress, thought child
was in the water. Fashioning moose
of the rope that police had placed on
shore as a safety measure, Hill hur-
ried onto the ice AS he came nearer
he spied the trembling dog. Dropping
prone, he inched his way nearer. Ly'
ing on his stomach he made his first
cast. The Moose missed Topper's
head, but the dogs jaws snapped over
the rope before it sank. The boy be.
gan to pull, but the rope tore away
with a jerk as he suddenly broke
through the ice. With difficulty Hill
managed to crawl back onto the ice
and with mistaken nerve reshaped his
moose. This time he made a success
full cast. The moose settled over Top
per's head, and the pup was hauled
shivering and crying, to safety.
Whom told that. the Society for Pre-.
vention of Cruelty to Animals was
taking up the matter of an award fol
him, the boy said: "Oh, the wag OF
Topper's tail was thanks enough fol
me-"

MOTORISTS ARE
OFTEN CARELESS
Police Accident Report for
March Shows Causes
of Accidents.
FAIL TO OBSERVE
Common Regard for Safety
Seems Asleep in Many
Who Drive Automobiles.

In the accident report for the month
of March which is part of the records
of the police department, Chief OF
Police Logan points out that most of
the collisions are the result of care
lessness on the part of drivers.
Some of the accidents are caused by
the driver being intoxicated or by
speeding, and these are the most spec
tacular kind, resulting in severe in
jury or death for passengers in such
madly driven vehicles.
Drivers Don't Watch Out.
But the larger number of ordinary
accidents are caused by the driver be-
ing mentally asleep at the wheel. No
driver can avoid the danger thrown
in his path by the approach of a zig
tagging car driven by a drunken
driver. But he surely can see a rail
road crossing, note the stop" sign OF
an arterial highway, and observe the
right of way.
During the month of March, 1925
there were az collisions. There were
16 cases where automobiles collided
head-on, of automobiles being struck
by a train, automobiles colliding
with a fixed object, 1 colliding with
street car, with bicycle, auto
mobiles striking pedestrians and
cases of train colliding with q
pedestrian.
Give Causes of Accidents.
The causes of the accidents are
listed in the report as follows: "cut-
ting in, cutting corner, failure to OBJ
serve right of way, failure to stop at
arteriaf highway, motorist on wrong
side of road, speeding, backing, glar-
ing headlights, failure to signal, driv-
ing while intoxicated, defective brakes
and overhead obstruction" Failure to
observe the right of way caused more
accidents than any other one thing
but most of these causes can be traced
to one general cause, carelessness.
Pedestrians or children share too in
responsibility. One pedestrian was
hurt because he failed to cross g
street at the intersection, another was
confused by the traffic, and children
were hurt who were run into while
| playing in the street.
In two cases of accidents for the
month, the railroad was held at fault
in one for not giving signal and in
the other because there we're nc
gates down.
Road Conditions Matter Less.
Road conditions, weather and light
conditions have less infuerce thar
one might guess offhand. The roat
conditions were given as dry II
most of the accidents, the weather
"clear" and daylight or good light
/ prevailed for the most part.
Naturally almost all of the acci
dents or collisions occurred at inter
sections or at railroad crossings, driv
ing home the self-evident proposition
that drivers should keep their wit:
with them at these places, and re
gard the old slogan as IN force
safety first

RANDALL FIRST
TO FILE REPORT
Voters Unanimous in Use
of Gas and License
Tax Funds.
AC CCNERAI TAVEC
AS GENERAL TAXES
Want Funds Received Used to
Reduce the General
Property Tax.

Randall qualified as the first town
in Kenosha county to state its prefer
ence as to how thes moneys collected
from the gasoline tax and automo-
bile license funds should be expended
in Kenosha county when it filed with
County Clerk Charles L. Holderness
tbs morning report from town
board meeting where the voters unan-
imously went on record as favoring
applying the funds in question to re-
ducing the general tax levy. Accord
ing to the law the funds may be used
at the discretion Of the county beard
either to reduce the general tax levy
or for highway construction purposes.
Sixty voters were present at the
meeting in the town Of Randall and
they voted unanimously for the plan
of applying the funds for the reduce
ton of the general tax levy. Frank
Zerfas, of Twin Lakes, chairman Of
the town board, and Gilbert Kerkhoff,
of Bassetts, clerk, signed the resolu-
ton which reads as follows:
Believe in Economy.
ITO the County Board OF Kenosha
County:
ave, the electors of the town OF
Randall in annual meeting assembled
this seventh day Of April, 1925,
believing in a program of economy
and tax reduction wherever and when
ever possible do hereby,
"Resolve that we as taxpayers and
voters insist that our town and coun-
tv boards use all gasoline tax and au-
tomobile license funds, received from
the state, to replace the tax levied on
general property for highway purpos-
es. We are opposed to any expansion
of the highway program at this time
due to these funds becoming avail
able"
Other Towns to Act.
Other towns in the county are ex-
pected to take action on the question
and also to file their reports with the
county board before it's next regular
meeting. 1t is said that there is
general trend throughout the county
towards the application of the FUNDS
allotted to Kenosha county from these
tax sources to the general property
tax, If such should be the case the
funds for the building Of highways
must be provided in some other way
as has been the case heretofore.
Those in favor of using the funds
70 lessen the general tax levy main
tain that this will prevent any ex-
travagant road building program
which might result under the other
method.
