FILTRATION PLANT SITE IS. COMPLETE
Title Obtained to All Land De.
 .sirM for Development

Through settlements reached out of court, the water department has taken title to all lands required for a filtration plant in the vicinity of Shuttle Meadow reservoir and other extensions of the water service, three condemnation actions having been avoided through agreements made by Attorney Donald Gaffney, repre- senting the original holders of the land, and Judge John H. Kirkham. corporation counsel. representing the city
 Several days ago the Sandberg tract was taken over for $7,500. An nouncement was made today that the Julius and Mathilda Schultz plots have been purchased for $29.- 900. and the Gottfrey M. Holmquist tract has been purchased for 5000. The Schultz deal involves 75 acres of land while the Holmquist plot embraces 14 acres.
 Agents of the water department had made several unsuccessful at- tempts to purchase the land at a price favorable to the city but were unable to bring about reduction in the price asked. To avoid further delay, Judge Kirkham brought con- demnation proceedings. The de- fendants engaged Attorney Gaffney to handle their interests and the settlement, agreeable to all. was reached,

,KLUX POLICY IN INDIANA

That was a rather startling de- position brought forward by one Pat Emmons of South Bend. Ind, a former ku klux Klan worker. In order to stir up interest in the wan- ing organization 1t was necessary to ':beat up somebody" he said an off cial of the order had announced.
 It is hard to believe that there are people in the Hoosier state who would be attracted to this organiza- ton only if 1t indulged in such tao tics. The. spirit of the south," it was called; and when one reflects how parts of the south have handled men with this spirit, sending them to jail and making it otherwise hard for the tar-and- feather policy to flourish. one is inclined to believe that this spirit is slipping even in the cotton picking distrcts.
 Indiana has been quite busy of late years sending officials to the penitentiary. A few more sent to the same terminal will greatly help to clarify the atmosphere and help to rebuild it's shattered reputation.

to all parts of the town. and it was not uncommon for frisky citizens, young and old. to walk to and from downtown and think nothing at all of it. Nowadays we have a much better quality of sidewalks but most of the population seems to be riding on tires in the streets.
 Wooden sidewalks, clanked with many trees on both sides. their branches making bowers for pedes- trians to walk through, were not so bad, all things considered, They had a honey atmosphere. and people were glad to have them. But they existed in days long since past. When cement began to take the place Of wood on the sidewalks it was the beginning of the cement age. which now is turning every road and highway into avenues of speed. A once great lumber industry has made way for the cement in- dustry.

A BLOW AT CONFISCATION
 OF AUTOMOBILES

The national prohibition act, which presumes to allow the seizure of automobiles used while trans porting liquor. has not been aided by the decision of the Supreme Court. The decision that automobile financ- ing companies should have an op- portunity in the courts to preserve their equity in such seized cars will make it all but impossible to retain the machines. as most of them en- gagged in such illegal transportation will be found to be plastered with liens from such companies.
 The point brought up for judicial disposal has been a sore one for many years. Confiscation of the automobiles of persons who put them to such use is one thing, and encompasses the original object of the prohibition, act; but when the car is not really fully owned by the person transporting the liquor, the rights of others are involved. The law from the first has been rather vague regarding these rights. Ac- cording 10 the Supreme Courts rulings the finance companies have the right to prove their equity, and the practical result will be that the cars cannot be confiScated whenever there is such an equity proven in court.

and that the states had no right to meddle with such commerce. This would be like saying because the railroads are engaged in interstate commerce the states through which they pass had no right to tax them.
 The bus people had losing fight from the start. They objected to a tax which was by no means high. and which was deemed merely fair recompense to the state for the use of it's highways, which have cost the taxpayers heavily.
 The decision is to be a precedent for all other states confronted with the same problem. It will have far reaching effects so far as benefits to the states are concerned: but it probably will not deter single in- terstate bus line from remaining in business. Its main effect will be to place interstate bus lines on the same footing as intrastate lines.

INTERSTATE BUSES

The right 10 collect taxes from interstate buses for the use of the highways Is now firmly established. Connecticut's case against the hus operators from other states reached the U. z. Supreme Court and there attained adjudication in nearly record time. and the state won it's conten- tion all along the line. This latter was possible because the state had d preponderance of logic and justice on its side: for | the state is not to be permitted 10 tax buses for the use of its highways the sovereignty of states would have been dealt q most serious bloW

QUIGLEY ON THE BLEACHERs

.. It. Is an unusual sort of political football game that will be played in this"efty Announcement by George :, A.. Quigley, one Of our star per formers, that he will not take part in the game this spring is somewhat of a surprise. Nobody expected Quigley 70 be satisfied with a place in the bleachers. What sort Of po- litical contest is this going to be?
 Quigley has been a contender for so long that no local campaign has been regarded as complete without few spirited .broadsides from our IT ost cynical political critic. He says. or at. least indicates, he lacks the lime. That must mean he isn't suai- ciently aroused over anything. Per haps he has been too busy with more practical things
 However. we are not taking too much for granted Yet awhile. Let some politician say something that Quigley doesn't like and there vet may be commotion in the bleachers and somebody will be seen elbowing his way into the direction of inc playing 1fGli.

THE HAVANA CONFERENCE

Instead of ending in general dis cord and extreme bitterness. as some 1 forecasters declared would eventu- ate, the Havana conference of Pan- American states has finished in com- parative amity. Instead of lodging the intervention issue, the confer ence discussed it thoroughly; and the United States, which was sup posed to be anxious to avoid such a discussion, was the first to bring 1t up through the leader of its delega- ton, Charles E. Hughes.
 The Latin-American republics, some of them eager to call into question the Monroe Doctrine, and the Caribbean policy of the United States, had an opportunity to match wits with the American defenders of these policies and found them selves unable to upset the clear logic of Hughes. In contrast to this was the rather bungling effort of the objecting states-Salvador, Argen- tina, Mexico, Panama and Santo Domingo. They pinned their case on a clause written by a commission of iurists which met in Rio de Janeiro last year, and they wanted the idea embodied in 8 rule of international law. MT. Hughes had no great diff ficulty in showing that the confer ence had no power to change inter- national law. He did not even need to argue whether intervention was right or wrong. As one commentator has put it, he argued as profess sional lawyer dealing with we'll meaning amateurs"
 Instead of having our policy in Nicaragua subject to a serious at tack during the conference, it passed through the ordeal without even slight damage. That does not neces- sarily mean that the policy is per- feet one, but means rather that the Latin-Americans who were inclined to question it were inept in their manner of presenting their case.
 The most important item on the agenda held over for the next con- ference turns out to be the establish ment of compulsory arbitration in Latin American affairs, which will be considered at the Washington Pan-An erican conference next year. This is expected to include the inter vention problem along practical lines, and if the republics opposing the Caribbean policy of the United States have learned Something from the Havana conference, they will not attempt to cover too much territory.
