KNAPP REVIEWS PURPOSE OF LAW Says He Is Satisfied With Richmond Vote. 1 Sne-ial to The T'mes. RICHMOND. Ind., June 16 Representative James M. Knapp, of Hagerstown, author of the law giving cities the right to vote on the city manager form of ogvernment. declares he is satisfied with the vote in Richmond on the plan. He said: “During the ’ast session of the Legislature when the city manager bill was pending, two opinions from the citizens of the several cities of the State frequently were expressed. “One was that there was a crying demand for a change from the Federal system to the city manager system. Another was that cities were satisfied with their present form of government and did not wish a change. , “It was obvious, then, that it was a question for each municpality to settle for Itself and not for the Legislature to decide. Therefore, through the means of a referendum contained in the law. cities S-e deciding for themselves as to whether or not they are ready for a charge from the present Federal system. “Whenever the people have an opportunity to go to the ballot box and register their opinion either for or against any proposition, or to'vote for or against any man or woman. 1 am satisfied with the result because I believe In majority rule. “I am glad that the referendum feature was contained In the bill, for through the means of a referendum that principle of 'government by the people’ is maintained by letting Richmond and the other cities that have defeated the plan say what they wanted.”

And the perfection of the remainder of the day and up into (he night, when the last good-bys were said and the trippers started toward Indianapolis and their respective homes therein, was assured by the Connersrille Chamber. The Connersville boys’ band, which is under the wing of the Connersville Chamber of Commerce, serenaded the visitors as they alighted from their cars. There was a big committee from the chamber to welcome the trippers, and there was a long row of automobiles, furnished by the Connersville chamber, awaiting the pleasure of the guests, who were taken on a ride about town, including the big manufacturing district.

GLEN W OOD MAN HOSPITABLE. Every one of the visitors, who learned of the treat in time, was filled with cold lemonade at Glenwood through the courtesy of Guy S. Little, who has a general store there. It came as a complete surprise-—wasn’t on the program

or anything of that sort, but Mr. Little had been a traveling salesman for a number of years and knew what a glass or two, or maybe three, of ice-cold lemonade meant to a man on the road on a hot day. So he had prepared an abundant supply ahead of time and he and his stnail daughter. Prances, ladled it out with free and generous hands. One of the trippers, Oscar Lewis didn’t make the entire trip by rail. At New Palestine he was so busily engaged in conversation with a friend, Charles Ileerlich, that he forgot just what time the special was to leave, and when he reached the appointed spot the cars had left. IDs friend was a resourceful man and had an automobile and the rest of the trippers were overtaken at Reedville. and the party was once more complete.

ALASKA, LAND OF RICHES, WILL BE RECLAIMED New Governor Plans to Promote Development of ‘Forgotten Empire.’ WASHINGTON, June 15—America is about to reclaim her “forgotten empire" to the north. And through the process of reclamation Uncle Sam will realize of dollars on an investment of $7,200,000. Scott Bone, newly selected Governor of Alaska, in an interview here after taking the oath of office, declared Alaska is a land of untold wealth which he hoped to develop to a marked degree. Alaska, he said, seems to have been forgotten during the last years. Its population has steadily dwindled. Divided authority has killed the pioneer spirit and created discouraging obstacles, Bone said. Bone hopes to revive the pioneer spirit of Alaska and bring it into its own. In this, he said, we would have the active cooperation of President Harding and Administration officials. Harding struck at one of the principal handicaps of the territory b’y lending his support to a measure proposing the consoiidattion of the fity-eight Government agencies administering to the affairs of Alaska. This division of authority has been the biggest single stumbling block to the expansion of this northern empire, Bone said. The vast resources of Alaska have hardly been scratched, the new Governor said. Nqarly one-fifth of the size of the United States, with 100,000 square miles of land suitable for agricultural purposes and a coast line 30,000 miles in length. Alaska is anew and,greater Eldorado, with billions of dollars In prospect. Bone stated. He expects to reach, his post early in July.
