Other than getting to Ogden for

that, 1t is something of relief to
see ball player kick once in

cannot be counted against him.

81 cars which go over the average
trunk highway daily would pick up
all the nails long before the magnet
made its next trip.
Operation and depreciation on Sc
trucks, going $50 miles day for
eight Or nine months, would cost
more than 100000. The magnets
would pick up only loose iron and
steel. They would neither pick up
broken glass, brass tacks, copper
wire nor would they touch iron or
steel imbedded in the road surface.
With demands coming from every
section of the state for paving, grad
ing, new bridges and other improve
ments, Mr.. Babcock is not seriously
thinking about spending money for
electromagnetic just at present.

MAGNETS ON TRUCKS
PICK TACKS, NAILS

= Every so often someone writes to
C. M. Babcock, state highway COM
missioner, and suggests equipping a
truck with large electro magnet to
pick up nails and wires and prevent
punctures.
Such trucks are used in some other
states. The idea sounds good. But
Mr.. Babcock has a habit of balancing
costs against benefits before he
spends state road funds. So he did a
little figuring on this magnet ques-
ton, and here are some of the things
considered:
The magnet and the required cleo
trio generator are too heavy and
bulky to be attached to maintenance
trucks or tractors. Special trucks
must be used.
An electromagnetic wide enough to
cover the whole roadway would be a
serious traffic hazard. To be safe it
could cover only half the roadway
each trip.
A high speed truck, travelling $50
miles a day, would require two
months, including a couple of Sun
days, to go over both sides of each
route in the 1000 mile system. To
cover the entire system daily would
require fifty-six trucks.
If load of old lumber were driven
over a highway, strewing nails as it
went it would be fine if one of the
ffty-six magnets followed the load
of lumber. But suppose the load of
lumber came right after the magnet
made its daily trip! Some of the

BLOWOUT CAUSES ACCIDENT

Otto Loose, Morgan creamery truck

on the road recently. One of the tires
developed sand blister and Mr..
Loose, fearing that the sand might
work in and cause a blowout before
he could get it repaired, took his
pocket knife and attempted to remove
the material from the blister, but in
doing so jabbed the tube. The trem-

forced the knife out of his hand, cut

Increasing Havana
Cabarets Seen as
Menace to Minors
Paddock Drive Followed
by Incessant Wall
of Proprietors.
By the Associated Press.


HAVANA, April 15.--Havana is hay
ing its night club growing pains. Legis-
latorS view the increase in numbers of
cabarets In various lghts-as menace
to minors. as an attraction for tourist
dollars, as breeders of vice.
Most recent of municipal and federal
government attempts to classify cabarets
and close certain types was Mayor
Miguel Mariana Gomez'S wholesale pad
locking of so-called dancing academies
in the Chinatown district. His secret
service men told him-what every casual
tourist knows-that the cabarets with a
20 per cent entrance fee, no convert
charge and unbounded dancing oppor-
tunities are nightly crowded with
minors. He put the lid on tight and
since that date has been listening to
the insistent wall of proprietors, who
protest discrimination against their
cheap prices, while the more ornate
clubs, with regular hoStesSes and high
prices, are allowed to operate unmo-
Tested.
The answer to the problem, as one
supper club lawyer sees 1t, is to make
public outcry or public scandal the only
cause for paddock. There are those,
however, claiming public welfare as
their motive, ready to reply that there
is never any noticeable cutlery or public
scandal in Havana cabaret, that gang
warfare is unknown, but that, never
theless, all supper clubs constitute Sc
ductive influence toward the downfall
of youth.
