Williamson County. Illinois,
Cliques Ready 10 Fight

Herrin. Ill.,, Oct. 27.-tP)--.Tswn
warning factions i'm "bloody William,

day in tense atmosphere created
by the Staying Of two men in the

Baker Cannot Get
$500 Sought From
Highway Commission

I. P. Baker, Bismarck, cannot col
lect damages from the state highway
commission for its alleged blocking
of traffic on the Missouri river, the
attorney general has held in an opin-
ion to the highway commission.
Baker claimed $500 damages when
the river channel changed and ex-
posed piling used in constructing the
highway bridge across the stream
here. He contended that his boats
could not go below the bridge because
of the obstruction and that he was en-
titled to damages.
In his opinion the attorney gen
cral said: "You are advised that tho
North Dakota state highway commits
sion is an agency Of the state Of North
Dakota and employed BY tho state
in the performance Of governmental
functions. "A suit against such COM
mission is q suit against the xtntc.
A suit against the state may not be
maintained without its consent. Such
consent has not been given. You are
further advised that the state isstm
mune for acts Of negligence Of its
officers. This immunity is shared by
the agency Of the state used IN h39h-
way construction. Bridges are part
Of the highway,
1T is, therefore, our opinion tket
your commission or the state OF North
Dakota II not legally liable Tor
damages - claimed by Mr.. Baker. Z

PROPOSITION
IS DEFEATED
Proposal to Merge st. Louis
City and County Rejected
BY County Voters

St. Louis, Oct. 27-(R)-Despite de-
feat of the annexation proposition in
a special election yesterday the
greater st. Louis conference will con-
tinue it's campaign for merger Of the
city and st. Louis county, H. X. Wag-
ner, president of that body, said to-
day.
The proposed merger suffered over
whelming defeat at the hands Of the
county voters, although the PROPOSE
tion received a majority of 7 to in
the city. The county voters rejected
the proposal by better than a 2 to
vote. A majority in both city and
county was necessary for passage.
Adoption of the merger would have
put St. Louis in more than the $1,OOO,-
600 population class. It would have
increased the area of the city from
81 to $50 square miles, making this
the largest city proper in area in the
world, although the metropolitan con.
trolled district Of New York and Lon
don are larger.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Oct. 27.--tR)-
Harry Grcb, former middleweight
champion of the world, had pre-
monitiOn Of death.
This was revealed today by his
brother-in-law, ]. Elmer Edwards, a
few hours before Greb, who died in
Atlantic City Friday, was laid to rest
in grave adjacent to that Of his
wife.
"For the last month or SO, Harry
has been rather Respondent" Ed

and seemed spiritless in many ways.

Though confirming the fact that
Greb had . glass eye, Mrs. Edwards.
the late pugilist's sister, regretted
the secret was broken by his friends
in Atlantic City.
"Harry was sensitive about the at

URGES
MANY CHANGES
IN ROAD LAWS
State Highways Should BE
Removed From County Con-
troll, Engineer Says

Complete revision Of state high
way laws is urged by H. c. Frahin
in his biennial report prepared for the
legislature.
Such step. he said, would elimin-
ate numerous incons stencies, ambi-
guities and discrepancies in the pres
ent laws and permit Of several
sweeping changes which he believes
would improve the efficiency Of the
highway department. Among the lat
ter are:
/. Give the highway mmission
power to grant rights of way to cleo
tric power and telephone companies.
=. Have all contract lettings at the
state capital to avoid needless travel
expense in reaching county seats
where bids on various projects now
are opened.
3. Place state highways directly un-
der the control Of the highway com
mission without regard to counties.
At present county commissioners
must petition for an Improvement be-
fore it can be made.
4. Relieve the counties Of any ex-
pense in connection with state roads
finding some other method Of financ-
ing the 25 per cent of the construc-
tion cost now borne by the counties
Would Permit Quicker Road
Building
Removing state highways from
county control, it is pointed out
would permit the state to close up
unimproved gaps in arterial roads
neglected under the present system;
would eliminate pressure on county
boards to secure improvements and
location of roads along certain lines
for the benefit Of certain individuals
or communities; and would permit
the highway system to be developed
on the basis of statewide considera
tions instead of only number ,ol
county viewpoints. \
''In BRIEF" Frahm said, this pro
cedure would permit the state high.
way commission to build highways
where they arc most needed from ;
state standpoint and be Independent
of county influences in this work
1t would provide better and more
rounded out system by the early i'm
provement of the more arterial route.
in keeping with the traffic burdes
on these routes.
1T would also permit counties t,
give their undivided attention t,
county and township road building
and to devote local funds to purcl.
local purposes"
Budget System Recommended
Adoption of such system, he said
would make it necessary for the high
way department to lay out com
prehensive construction program Gov
ering = period Of years, the work t,
be done when possible and the NOR
important items to be given first at
tcntion.
Frahm also recommends adoption
by the department Of budgetar.
system 50 that each division Of tn
highway department will know wha
funds will be available and thus b
enabled to map out its work accord
ingly.
Recommendation is made that tn
expenses of the office OF registra
of motor vehicles be entirely divorces
from those Of the highway depart
mcnt proper.

RELIGION IS
NO BARRIER TO
OFFICE
Religious Freedom Gift Of
Catholics as Well as Pr0tes-
tants, Says Methodist

Detroit, Mich, Oct. 27-LR)-No
man must be refused public office,
however high or however. low, be-
cause of the religious group to which
he belongs, says the Rev. Lynn Harold
Hough, Of the Central Methodist Epis-
copal church, In an article written
for the November issue OF the Chris
tian Advocate, Methodist magazine.
Writing on 1.-THE Spirit of st. Fran
els of ASSIST" DR.. Hough declared
that "his spirit Of loving justice
would make it impossible, for instance,
for Christian who 10 Protestant to
say he will not vote for Christian
who is a Catholic for high public Of
flee in the United States"
Religious freedom, DR.. Houdh point
ed out, was the gift Of the Catholic
colony Of Maryland as well az Of the
Protestant colony Of Rhode Island.
ut is surely clear enough that q
man who belongs to group whose
blood has been shed upon everyone
of our battlefields and whose purse
has been open to all Of our national
needs, cannot be refused the highest
office just because he belongs to that
group" DR.. Hough continued.
Character and Ability Mast Decide
Doubtless there are Catholics for
whom no sagacious man would vote
when office Of high public trust Is at
stake. Doubtless there are Metho-
dists who are unfit for great posi-
tions Of public trust. The question
must be decided on the basis Of per-
sonal character and for personal
ability.
If we have great Protestant ma
jority in America, all the more do we
have the gravest responsibility In re-
spect Of our justice and fair play and
Ii we have captured little Of the
PA chr. 81 =, ts,d ~ ssn
minorities in our land. There Il NO
surer test Of the moral and spiritual
quality Of ! religious majority than
the fashion IN which It treats minor
tiles which for the time can BE safely
