Early Toll Roads in Ohio

Tolls on the old National road
that ran through Ohio were deter
mined by the wear and tear caused
by vehicles and cattle passing over
1t. In view of their weight, cattle
were taxed twice as heavily as sheep
or hogs, anfl, according to the tariff
of 1915, hogs were taxed twice as
much as sheep. The toll on vehicles
was determined, not by weight, but
by the width of the tires used, for
the narrower the tire the more the
roadbed was cut up. Wide tires
those more than six inches and later
eight-could pass over free, as they
served practically as rollers.

Soloman with brass knuckles and
received a bullet in return.
The rioters tore the Nazi flag
from the crack liners standard
and threw it into the Hudson Rlv-
er before they were rcpulsed ~
400 police and German sailors
aboard the ship.
"The prominent display Of this
emblem (the Nazi flag even
carried with it the same sinister
implication as a pirate ship sail
ing defiantly into the harbor OF
nation, one of whose ships it had
just scuttled, with the Black Flag
of Piracy flying aloft," Brodsky
said.
"In a large sense, indeed It
might seem that whatever disturb
ances attending the sailing Of the
Bremen were provoked by the
Haunting of this emblem to those
who regard it as a defiant chal-
lenge to society"
The five defendants freed were
Arthur Blair, William Bailey, Viii
liam Howe, George Blackwell, and
Vincent Mccormack. The court
room, as in the former hearings
of the Bremen riot defendants,
was heavily guarded but there was
no disturbance.
"These men were part of a
group of persons" the Jewish
Judge continued, "who were there
protesting the Haunting of the
German emblem, which they had
a right to do so long as they did
not disturb the peace. The 0ues-
ton, however, of the commission
of the individual acts of violence
charged independently present
quite another problem. Under
the guise of liberty of lawful as
sembly, no specific acts Of vlo-
lence may be committed by any
individual.
The defendants were represent
ed as counsel by Congressman
Vito Marcantonio and four othc =
attorneys.

The Okavengo natives of South
west Africa are said to be so lazy
that they do not seem to care
whether they survive lean" years
or not-so long as they do not
work. Their "labor-saving" devices
include: Poisoning water to catch
fish quickly; chOpping or burning
down trees to get fruit; and burn
ing grassland to drive away wild
animals. The Okavenga natives
should be able to grow and store
sufficient foodstuffs to carry them
through two or three years of
drouth, but that they are too lazy

PLAN TO END
DOPING EVIL
R a c e Commissioners
To Take Action at
Miami in Winter

State racing commissioner and
track owners throughout the coun.
try today were awaiting perfection
Of plans now being rushed by Fed
eral Narcotics Commissioner H. J.
AnSlinger calling for the creation
of a flying squad OF picked Fed
eral agents to assist local authori-
ties in stamping out the doping of
race horses.
Described by Director Asnlinger
as widespread as ever" the in
lection of heroin, nytroglycerin
and various other drugs into run
ming horses is regarded in racing
circles as a distinct menace to
the future of the sport.
Outlines Are Adopted
Preliminary outlines of the fly
ing squad proposal were arrived
at here last Saturday in a con-
ference between Mr.. AnSlinger,
Walter E. O'Hara, president and
managing director Of the Nara
ganSett Park track, and Harry R.
Stringer, secretary of the Nation
al Thoroughbred Federation.
According to Mr. Stringer, the
compIeted plans will be forwarded
by Mr.. AnSlinger to Mr.. O'Hara,
who, in turn will distribute copies
of the proposal to every racing Of
ficial in the country for consid-
Grafton.
Final action by the State Rae
ing Commissioners is not expected
before they convene at Miami
next January, Mr.. Strlnger said.
"Dope" Practise Returned
This development has been con-
templated, cording to Mr..
Stringer, since shortly after the
Chicago doping scandal two years
ago, when, despite the promise Of
track operators and horse owners
to clean house." the practise re-
turned with all its former prevail
ence.
Mr.. Stringer gave a clean bill
of health to nearby Laurel, how
ever. He told The Times:
every winner at Laurel goes
to the spit box for the saliva
test. Where the chemists and
veterinarians are competent,
this test is a satisfactory guard
against doping. 1 have every
confidence in the chemists and
veterinarians at Laurel"
