OLD PICTURE
OF LINCOLN
DISCOVERED

HOOPESTON, Ill, July 26. IU.P)
&C. M. Bruff. of this city and Mad
ison, Wis. has acquired an unusual
photograph of Abraham Lincoln,
made when the Great Emancipa-
tor" was young man.
The picture is classed as an am
brotype and is produced on glass,
with the lights represented in sill
yer and the shades by dark back
ground.
That method of making photo
graphs was used between the time
of the daguerreotype, which was
produced on silver, and the time
of the ferrotype, or tintype, which
was a photograph taken on thin
iron plate. 5
The ambrotype is much rarer
than the other early kinds of pho
tographs. Bruff accidentally came
across the ambrotype while calling
on a junk dealer in the vicinity Of
Vincennes, Ind.

CITY MANAGER
PLAN POPULAR

CHICAGO, July 26. U.H = Six
counties and 425 cities in the Unit
ed States have discarded the JEFF
fersonian theory of government
by amateurs and substituted
administration by technically
trained managers.

a study of this development in To-
cal government, has just been pub
ished by the University Of Chicago
Press. The authors are Clarence
E. Ridley, director of the Interna-
tional City Managers association
and associate professor of political
science at the University of Chi

At present the city manager is
the administrative head of cities
ranging in size from Polk City, Fla,
with 222 inhabitants, to Cincinnati,

and other similar expenses assumed
by the district, was forwarded this
afternoon to Phil Swing at Wash
ington, by Walter Goodson, secre-
tary of the district.
The amount of the various ad-
vances totals between $175,000 and
100000, Goodson estimated, and
Swing has advised he believes there
is an excellent chance of having
most of this, if not all, repaid to
the district by the federal govern
ment.

Comptroller of Currency j. F.

House subcommittee today.
The hearing at which Mr.. O'Con-
nor testified was called by the

Banking and Currency Committee
which is considering the Mcleod

Get $1,S6O Edge Apiece
Mr.. O'Connor said two receivers
were appointed by his office tc
dispose of assets of seven local
banks. One handled five banks
the other two, and each draws
$4,000 per year. The average sal
ary paid national bank receivers is
$6,64O, Mr.. O'Connor said.
Referring further to the locaI
situation, the Comptroller denied
there had been any discrimination
against the United States Savings
Bank when it was omitted from
the Hamilton National Bank mer-
ger. Action of his office, he de-
clared, was perfectly proper and
has been upheld by the courts thus
far.

In reviewing the national situa'
tion, Mr.. O'Connor told the com.
mittee that under the bill as
amended the Government would
face a probable loss of 81, 1866, ,0OO,'
900 because unpaid deposits total
$3,1O4, 100000, and A per cent of
that amount will probably never
be repaid.

NEW AIR MAIL
BIDS ASKED
BY j. s.
Temporary Private Service
: Planned While Congress
Maps Permanent Policy
by International News Service


The Administration today
took the first step toward re-
turning the air mail service
to private operation, by is
suing a call for new bids i'm
mediately.
The new bids will be asked on a
temporary basis, pending enact
ment by Congress of new and
permanent air mail legislation.
President Reveals Plan
Announcement that air mail
bids would be asked of commercial
companies Immediately was made
by the President in his semi
weekly press conference today.
The news was given out in the
form of a simple oral statement
by the President that at 2:30 to-
day he would go over the new post
office proposal for asking bids on
air mail from commercial COM
panies.
The President was Immediately
flooded with questions as to how
he would ask for such bids pend
ing legislation, and whether old
companies whose contracts were
rescinded in the general cancella-
ton order some time ago could bid
under the new plan.
To these questions the President
replied that he could not go into
details.
Service to Be Temporary
The only detail revealed today
was that the new set-up will en-
brace only a temporary period.
After that, presumably, the air
mail legislation now pending be-
fore Congress will have been
enacted and a permanent set-up
established.
