POLICE OPPOSE
SLASH IN FUND
FOR CITY RADIO
$1,000 Cut viii Prevent
Full Time Operation,
Chief Kinney Says.

Serious curtailment of the oper-
ations of the police radio communi-
cation system will result from the
drastic order Of City Controller Will
liam L. Elder to cut the 1881 budget
from $31 900 to $4,000, in the opin-
ion Of police officials. q
Plans for operating the station on
a twenty-four-hour basis, instead
of the present sixteen-hour sched-
ule, will be abandoned as result of
the slash in funds, Norman Bats,
radio director, said.
The $31, 1000 budget was cut to the
bone and figured with the under
standing that the county pay Is per
cent of the costs, the county since
that time having refused to pay any
of the cost for sheriff's cars.
Contending the radio COM
munication system" is recognized as
the greatest improvement in law
enforcement methods which has
demonstrated its effectiveness in In
dianapolis," Police Chief Jerry E.
Kinney said, eff we operate at all
I believe we should run the station
twenty-four hours a day."
"By all means the station should
operate full time," declared Charles
R. Myers, safety board president,
citing the imperative need for Suf-
f1cient funds.
The budget provided for employ
ment of eight men, three additional;
new transmitter at $500, and
equipment of ten more police cars
with receiving sets. Bats declared
the present transmitter was given to
the city and is about past its period
of usefulness.
"You have denied us fifty adj
ditional policemen. Now you want
to cut our radio budget" Kinney
told Francis Coleman, chief deputy
controller. Kinney planned to equip
four additional sub-station cars to
permit the squads to cruise, cover
ing greater territory and abandon
ing the Sub-station plan.

Later on he suggested to Anne
that they go to movie, and he
named a picture that Anne had said
she wished she might see; but she
pleaded tirednesS and an 8 O'Clock
call at the studio, and Dan, remark
ing her preoccupation and feeling
curiously unwanted, said that per-
haps he had better run along.
But Anne looked up quickly at his
tone, and her eyes reproved him.
You're a dear Dan," she said
please don't mind if I don't feel
like doing anything, will you?"
Dan felt a little cheap. He
thought: "After all, she came out
to Hollywood to get into pictures;
not to go running around at night
with anybody who comes along"
He thought: what big chump I
am to complain because she insists
on getting sufficient sleep before a

So he remained while, and
Mona suggested cheerfully that they
have sandwiches and coffee, and

some curiosity about her, and for
some minutes he and Anne talked
in low tones about the two girls
whom they could hear moving
about the kitchen.
They're dears-both of them, -
Anne said after short silence.
But strange pair to be such
good friends" Dan remarked.
Anne agreed. Perhaps that's
why they get along so well-they're
so utterly different. Mona's so
blithe and gay, and Eva"
she paused, and Dan said, EVA

hasn't found very much to be happy

LAON, France, Aug. 6.-Thi
French general staff spoke Of the
Aisne as The Hinge" during the
war. For three-fourths Of the oper
atoms on the western front it served
that purpose.
The farthest point Of German
penetration, both in 1914 and 1918
was in the Aisne. whose peninsulal
tip reaches the Marine at Chateau
Thierry.
Under the circumstances it could
not but have suffered more severely
than some Of its neighbors. Indeed
its most inconspicuous clump OF
wood achieved doubtful fame.
Salt Mines in Center.
IN the northwest lies the indus
trial city of Saint Quentin with its
famous canal and tunnel.
In the lower center arc the salt
mines of Scissors. Between the two
duns the fortuitous Chemin-des-
Danes.
The Aisne is the one department
which atteSts impartially to deeds
Of bravery of four armies-French,
Belgian, British and American.
Though the evidences, both in
reconstruction and the lack Of 1t,
are everywhere, M. GausSorgues,
project of the department. cheer
fully furnished concrete figuers.
There were 225,000 families driven
from their homes, most of them
destroyed: $1,000 homes completely
ohliterated; 10000 others damaged;
but left standing in whole or in
part. 1,238,0OO acres out of a total
of 1,4S4,000 in the department
rendered untillable; s600,000,000 as
the war bill to be paid.
Most of 1t Paid
Happily most OF that bill has
been footed. But what is even more
remarkable is the fact that the
estimates we're high enough to more
than replace, in each instance.
The 225,000 families whom shells
deprived of shelter have come back
10 infinitely better homes than
trey left.
Three-story houses have replaced
crumbling two-story affairs.
Fine new factories have sprung
up where no factories we're before.
Municipal and departmental
buildings are not reproductions Of
those destroyed, but amazing de-
partures, expressing the latest word
in modern architecture.
Money Left Over
But there was money left over,
even so, and this has been wisely
spent in public improvements such
as elimination of grade crossings,
construction of new highways,
sewers, telephone and telegraph
lines, municipal parks and play
grounds, and many other things
which the Aisne lacked in 1914,
peaceful though it was, and fairly
prosperous.
Beyond this, the Aisne today re-
fleets the same prosperity which
characterizeS a wide-awake France
which did not have to pay one
penny of its own losses, and con-
sequently has had a chance to
forge ahead in the economic cam
paign which followed the war.
Yet traces of the war remain, in
striking contrast to the rest. The
department is replete with GEM
eterieS and memorials, and near
these and in the woods about, the
trenches have been allowed to fall
into slow decay without the inter-
ference of human hands.

Mona went on to say that She

And in a lower voice that only

added: "You keep your eye on

Rorimer felt swift elation; al

a vague sense of uneasiness, and
with a question on his lips he
hesitated.
