MRS. A. ROOSEVELT HALTED BY COP Auto Without License Tag Is Cause of Chicago Mistake. CHICAGO, May I.—While sleuthing about Chicago'* Joop district for a woman burglar. Detective Harry Donnelly observed an automobile with no license tag approaching him. In it rode a fashionably gowned woman. Drawing a revolver, the detective forced the chauffeur to drive to the curb. “Who are you?" the detective asked the woman. "I am Mrs. Archibald Roosevelt,” replied the latter. "Relative of Teddy's, t ’spose?” queried the detective sarcastically. "Yes," was the reply. The detective, however, remained skeptical. and it was not. until *the chauffeur had been given a grilling in the office of the chief of police that the identity of Mrs. Roosevelt was established. Then there were profuse apologies and Mrs. Roosevelt departed for the Twentieth Century liimted, on her way to New York and Panama. BONUS UNLIKELY PRESENT SESSION Plans to Force Bill Through House Monday Off. WASHINGTON. May I.—Soldier aid legislation In congress today faced indefinite delay due to failure of house re I publicans meeting in caucus last night to : indorse the bonus bill as reported from ' the ways and means committee. Outspoken dissatisfaction against sev- ■ eral features of the measure became sud- | denly apparent in the republican ranks, j Asa result all plans to force the bill I through the bouse Monday have been I abandoned. Republican leaders admitted it probably will be impossible to pass the meas- | ure through both houses before the conI gressional recess early in June, j Some members predicted ao bonus | legislation will be passed this session, i The caucus, after four hours of heated i debate, adjourned to meet again, prob.t----1 tdy the latter part of next week, on | the call of Chairman Towner, lowa, j Should the republican convention declare in favor of a bonus, leaders s*|d action probably will be taken during tlie summer, but if a strong plank is written in the platform for reduction of taxes the oil I is virtually certain to be handed over to the next congress : in December. The main objections of the republican | insurgent* were lodged ngalaft the sales ! tax, but bonus advocates were surprised ] to find opposition to several other features. A petition signed by sixty-eight in- . surgents was presented, declaring for the bonus, but voicing unalterable opi pcsltion to the sales levy. Democrats are solid against the LIU in its present form, and with su<-h a : large bolt from the republican ranks the combination could defeat the measure.

Mr. Plumb, who Is general counsel for the Organized Railway Employes of America, will explain th plan which he ; proposed to congress with the indorsement of the railroad brotherhoods.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, MAY 1, 1920.

STATE HIGHWAY PLAN IS OPPOSED Present Is Time for Conservation, Say Farmers. Opposition to u too ambitious road building program in Indiana is expressed in vigorous terms by James G. Brown, president of the State Federation of Farmers’ Associations, and Jas. R. Riggs of Vincennes, former assistant secretary of agriculture, In a Joint statement issued today. Need of labor and materials for other purposes and the depreciation of existing government bond values are urged by the agriculturalists as reasons for moderation in road making. “The 5300.000.000, which it is proposed to spend in Indiana for highway improvements, would build seven courthouses in every county at a cost of $500,000 each, and you ail know how much taxpayers protest against one new courthouse.” the statement says. “The 3,000 miles, or 5 per cent of the state's highway system, for which improvement is planned, would cost the state $100,000,000; the counties would spend a like amount for feeder lines and the townships as much for connecting roads, making the $300,000,000 total. “\Ve must not be misled by federal and other aid. "Federal aid Is a tax, not a gift from dad. “And all taxes are considered a burden, even at times when conditions are normal or below-normal. “Taxes are burdensome, not In the amount you pay, but in proportion to your ability to pay. "We will all make a frontal attack some day, and, as the H. C. L. goes down, we will realize that our present troubles are caused by the high cost of spending. “In roadbuilding we need mileage for our money, not expensive miles.” Mr. Brown and Mr. Riggs base their opposition to extensive road building on the ground that, in this abnormal period, government work should be preserved for a possible dull day later, when materials will be available and labor will need such a market. Tbetr statement is not a specific attack on any plan but is intended to enlighten the state highway commission and county and township authorities on the attitude of farmers toward road improvement. SEEK TO RESTRICT NEGRO RESIDENT Support will be given a i!ty zoning and planning bill, to be presented to tlie next legislature, by the C.olptol Avenue Protective association as a means of preventing the encroachment of negr,> property holders on the main residence streets. This wa decided upon last night at a meeting of the association, at the home of Ira Holmes, 2154 North Capitol avenue. Fifty owners of property between Slxii>en:h and Thirty -eighth streets were present. Among those present were property owners on Maple road and North Illinois street urging that similar organization* be formed on ail north side streets. Harry G. Templeton, executive secretary of the Indianapolis Real Estate board, was present and assured members of the board's cooperation. Another meeting of tho Capitol avenue association will lie held next week. The association plan* to urge separation of white and colored children In all •chools.
