JOHN DEVINE, s5th District

Representative John Devine, Democrat,
of Dixon from the 35th District, compris-
ing the counties of DeKalb, Lee and
Whiteside, like Representatives Willston
and Bippus, Devine opposed the Com
missioner measure throughout the entire

crat, placed his opposition largely on the

positions to be filled by the Republican
administration.

F. ]. BIPPUS and GEO. A. WILL
ISTON, 31st District

Representative Geo. A. Williston, Re
publican, of the 31st district, all in Cook
county and Representative F. ]. Bippus,
of the 21st district, all in Cook county,
both opposed the Commissioner measure
throughout the entire session. The votes
of both of these men were unfriendly to
law enforcement, and we must look to
these districts to see that members friend
ly to law enforcement legislation take
their places.

ARTHUR ROE, 4oth District

Representative Arthur Roe Democrat,
Vandalia, of the 10th District, comprising
the counties of Christian, Cumberland,
Fayette and Shelby, under date of Sep
TENDER %, 1924, wrote the Anti Saloon
League i'll part as follows:
Il stand now and have at all times for
strict law enforcement and would sup
port ny reasonable and proper measure
to bring it about. As long as the law
is on the statute books, it should be en-
forced, and | am willing to help enforce
it. And will be only too glad to as
sist in the passage of any law that would
bring ii about"
Under date OF October 2, 1924, the
Ant-Saloon League wrote Mr.. Roe in
part as follows:
THE program of the Anti-Saloon
League for the Saith General Assembly
includes appropriation of such funds as
are necessary for the gathering of evil
dence in the enforcement of prohibition.
This to be done either by the creation of
a State Prohibition Commissioner, with
proper assistants, or by such legislation
as the Rice BILL"
Under date of October II, 1924, Mr..
Roe replied in part as follows:
There is nothing in the same tour let
ter of October p that / am not for and
! quite agree with the same, and have but
one object in view along that line, and
that is to pass such laws as may be nee
essary, whether mentioned in your COM
munication or not, that will make the law
more effective and stamp out the traffic.
Let me say the outline is with my
accord"
Under date of June 5, 1925, the Anti
Saloon League wrote Representative Roe
in part as follows:
The Speaker has set Wednesday. June
TO- for a vote on the State Prohibition
Commissioner measure IS. B. 2l4). This
bill is on third reading in .the House,
therefore this vote will be final
Your vote next Wednesday may save this
bill and I appeal to you for your vote in

Improvement Navigation
 Is Not Being Sighted
SURVEYS AND INSTALLATION OF AIDS TO SHIPPING LIMITED
 ONLY BY FUNDS.
(From Juneau Empire.)

The Department of Commerce is prepared to proceed with it's work of safeguarding navigation in Alas kan waters as rapidly as funds are made available by Congressional ap- propriations, according to a letter just received by the Governor of Al aska from Assistant Secretary J. M. Drake. The communication was in response to memorial passed by the Legislature recently urging sur veys and erection of navigat ation aids in the waters of Southwestern Alaska.
 MT. Drake pointed out the activi- ties of the Coast and Geodetic Sur vey and Lighthouse Service in all Alaskan waters during the past few years and particularly in the section covered by the memorial.
 "The condition of navigation due to fog and storm and long darkness for half of the year, to the consid- erable amount of precipitous and rocky coast line, the range of tide with strong currents the great depths with infrequent, convenient landings, are fully appreciated by the Department of Commerce and warrant as much aid being given mariners in the way of more and improved sea marks as the ship traffic and the resources of the country justify" MT. Drake said
 During the last fiscal year, he added, the Department expended $365,719 in constructing new light and fog signals Work is in pro- gress on a new station at Cape Spencer and "the Department is de- sirous of installing automatic aids (blinkers) at Cape Decision and Resurrection Bay.
 Since 1922 much work has been done in western and southwestern

FACIST REFORMER
 WOULD FREE GENIUS
 OF ALL RESTRAINTS

ROME, June 16.-(P)-The enthu- siasm In the United States for Am ericanization, during the first few years after the World War, now has its counterpart in Italy in the Fas- cists' cultural program of Italianiza- 1 tion but, whereas the American re- formers used the public schools and universities to attain their purpose, the vanguard of the Fascist urge ] the abolition of the present type of institutions of learning.
 Abolish the schools, banish the pro- fessors, and release the creative spirit of youth: such is the creed of the most advanced of the Fascist ed ucational reformers, who insist that culture cannot be taught in the schools"
 A number of addresses setting forth this general program were made at the recent Fascist Cultural Con- gress at Bologna, but even more startling proposals were advanced by F. T. Marinetti, ardent Fascist and founder of the Italian futurist movement, which now numbers 300 groups in various parts of the na tion.
 Art, the speaker said, was the best means of propaganda for Italy, the best method of spreading Ital- ianity abroad and of developing at home. Hence there should be estab- lished a Chamber of Art" welcom- ing the work of all Italians; an "Ar- lists Bank" supporting the workers, and a clearinghouse for work of ar lists.
 'The greatness of our country" maintained Marinetti, comes from her poets, painters, sculptors, archi- tects and her musicians, and from her color, air, electricity, blood, ra- dio and coal; creative genius, the only raw material in which Italy abounds."
 The national art salons, he contin- ued, instead of welcoming the works of great foreigners, should show the works of Italians; the Scala, San Carlo and Costanzi opera houses, in- stead of representing Wagner should foster young Italians; the Syracuse Theater, now used solely for the pro- duction of Greek Classics, should also open competitions for modern Italian Playwrights.
 Laws should be passed requiring the exclusive use of the Italian lan- guage on all menus, hotel stationary and commercial papers. Other laws should require that strictly Italian architecture be used in constructing new buildings, especially public build ings and monuments, and that all printing, whether of books or news papers, should be with Italian va rieties of >type.
 All academies, professional schools and art institutions should be abol-

Balieff's Chauve-Souris, wholly
new, returns to Washington on
March % to play a weeks engage
ment al Polls Theater, under the
direction of Morris Gest. The
Russian conferencier has scored
his greatest personal triumph this
year and his company has
achieved the highest point in
three years In respect to ensemble
singing and playing in the most
ambitious and varied bills which
they have presented in America.
Without losing the naive and
ludicrous charm Of his hopelessly
broken English, Balieff has. ex-
tended his vocabulary and in
creased his assurance in sparring
with his audience. There is never
a performance when he doesn't
display some new angle Of his
quick wit in answering these
sallies which are directed at him
by spectators. The new song hit,
"Oh, Katerina," provides ample
opportunity for this irnpromptu
battle Of wit.
