WISCONSIN, STOPS
 FIREWORKS ON 4TH
New State Law Cuts Down Cas-
 ualtieS and Days Fun

Madison. Wis, June 26. UP) The day has passed in Wiscon- sin when father can give an ex- hibition with Roman candles and skyrockets in front of the house on the Fourth of July.
 A new fireworks law, designed to protect the small boy and the general public, will govern it's first Independence Day this year
 The statute appears destined to deprive both father and son of fun which has been d customary part Of the days celebration in the past. To offset that fact, legislators who enacted the law argued that it also would cut down the days casual ties.
 A permit from the city mayor, village president, or town chair man is necessary before Roman candles may shoot their colored bursts of fire, or skyrockets go sizzing through the air. Even then they must be discharged in an open field or on the water.
 Failure to enforce the new law constitutes ground for removal of officials charged with that duty. Such officials may require $5,00O bond of the person or organization sponsoring the special fireworks display as insurance against per- sonal or property damage.
 Toy pistols, cannons. or other contrivances using explosive caps or cartridges, and any Chinese flrecrackers more than two inches in length and three-eighths inch in diameter are banned from sale, manufacture, or importation into the state. Even the distance which pin wheels may throw their fire is restricted.
 Any person who sells unper- mitted fireworks is held responsible by.t law for any damage they may do. Likewise a father is per sonally liable for damage caused by his boys fireworks if they are ot the forbidden tyre.
 Violation of any provision of tbe new law is subject 10 fine Of BIO to $500. Imprisonment from go days 10 six months in jail, or both

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 11.-Threats of
death, reported to have been made
against Miss Marian Wright, 1s-year-
old society girl, did not prevent her
from making her debut last night at q
prominent club. She was outwardly OBJ
livious of the case in which william
Kuhn, 23-year-old brokers' clerk, was
accused of attempting to extort $25, 900
from her under threat of death to her
or to her father, a steel company ex-
ecutive.
Because of her debut Judge John H.
Lyle said she would be too tired to
appear in court today and volunteered
to continue to another date the case
against young Kuhn, accused Of send
ing her threatening letters. One Of
them follows:
Dear Miss Wright: In this present
business depression many organizations
are being authorised to relieve the un-
employed. Working on this plan am
authorized by my counsel to force a per-
son or persons by extortion to donate

. BOULEVARD

HAGERSTOWN, Nd, Nov. II.
The road between HagerStoWn
and Williamport, now a State
highway, once traversed py
George washington when he VS.
sited Williamsport, may become q
boulevard, if plans Of the Hagers-
town Chamber Of Commerce and
the Williamsport c hi m ber OF
Commerce materialize.
The project, proposed by John
s. Kausler, q member of the
Hagerstown c mber Of Com
merce, is in line with similar
projects being carried out by
large and small cities in the
country aiming to make ap-
proaches more attractive.
The proposition to convert the
WilliamSport highway, which is
five miles long, into boulevard,
would also be in honor of the
bicentennial of the birthday Of
George Washington, who passed
over it when he went to Will
Transport to inspect that town
as a possible site for the Ma
tional Capital, and also on one
or two other occasions.
President John B. Ferguson, of
the HagerStown C h a m er OF
Commerce, was authorized to ap-
point a. committee to study the
project in conjunction with a
committee from the Williams
port Chamber of Commerce.
