PROPS NAMED FOR PRESIDENT BY AUTO MEN Muncie Man Will Head Indiana Automotive Trade Association for Year. Officers were elected, resolutions adopted and a report submitted by the highway committee adopted at the closing session yesterday of the annaal inerting of the Indiana Automotive Trade Association at the Athenaeum. The new officers and directors are as follows: President, J. Conner Props •&> Muncie; vice president, M. L. Johnson, Vincennes; treasurer, R. V. Law, Indianapolis; secretary-manager. L. M. Shaw, Indianapolis; directors: Carl Coons, Columbus; J. F. Frobbleter. Evansville; A. I. Shrader, New Albany; Harry Cole, Terre Haute, and Clem McCanaha, Richmond. RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED. One of the resolutions adopted favored a Federal ruling that would permit automobile dealers to deduct depreciation from the amounts on which they are assessed for income tax on used cars as they occur. Other resolutions were adopted urging State and county officials to do as much road building, grading and repairing as possible during the winter to relieve the unemployment situation; commending Governor McCray's stand on Federal farm relief; favoring the equaliajtion of all quantity prices; indorsing the efforts of the railroad labor board to reduce freight rates; indorsing relief from burdensome taxation and favoring a safety campaign regarding the operation of automobiles on streets and roads. ADOPTS REPORT OX V. S. AID. The report by the highway program kcmml.te* relative to Federal aid In road building, which was adopted, was in part as follows. ‘'Five years ago the Federal aid highway bill apportioned more than 57.000.0 X) to Indiana. At this time about $4,600,000 of that fund is still unused. The State highway commission makes assurances that road projects are now contemplated to cover that entire amount, but we wish to remind this convention that work of those projects is actually under way by June, 1022, those funds wtT. revert to the government and will be lost for use in Indiana. The new Townsend-Phipps-Doweil highway bill, which was substituted as a compromise for the Townsend bill, was passed by Congress and was signed by the President within the last two week?. This bill provides Federal aid funds of about $1,300,000 immediately available to Indiana and another $600,000 available about Jan. L The total road funds available for 1022 will be more than $6,000,000. Maintenance of soft surface roads of the State highway system today is costing about $4,600.000 annually. There are about 3.300 miles in the State highway system. The per mile maintenance cost is therefore abont $1,500 per year. The original cost of a gravel road is about $15,000. In ten years the construction and maintenance cost per mile of soft surface road amounts to $30,000. The State highway commission says that it costs $30,000 to $40,000 a mile to build permanent highways. Using Federal aid, the State and Nation sharing the cost equally, a permament road would not cost more than $20.00 a mile to Indiana. The money proposed to be given to Indiara as Federal aid came out of Indiana in Federal taxes. If we do not nse It some other State wil eventually use it.” Rite Gives Winter Entertainment The winter social entertainment of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, Valley of Indianapolis, will be commenced this evening at the cathedral, 20 South Penn- . sylvanla street, with music, dancing and n playlet on the program. The address of welcome will be delivered by George H. Pendleton. There will be songs by Mrs. James H. Lowry, soprano soloist, and Mrs. Lee S. Busch, contralto soloist.

MAY PUT CHECK ON ENTHUSIASM OFSPECTATORS Foreign Diplomats Unused to Demonstrations at Their Sessions. Special to Indiana Daily Times an<J! Philadelphia Public Ledger. By THE WASHINGTON OBSERVER. WASHINGTON, Nov. IS.—At future open sessions of the conference —the next one will be held primarily to enable M. Briand to air France's military protlem "demonstrations” may be barred. Such outbursts as accompanied the firing of Secretary Hughes’ bombshell on Saturday are utterly foreign to all diplomatic practice with which our distinguished guests from Europe and Asia are familiar. • • • Two of the outstandingly useful members of America’s technical staff at the conference are J. Butler Wright, counsellor of the United States embassy in London, and Edward Bell, counsellor at Tokio. Both were at their posts during the negotiations leading up to the convening of the conference and are familiar with all the ins and outs. Mr. Bell reached Washington from tte Far East only % Tuesday. He served as charge d’affaires in Japanese uninterruptedly from the departure of Ambassador Morris until the arrival of Ambassador Warren in September last, and has the intricacies of the Japanese and Chinese situation at his finger tips. • • • One of the most interesting foreigners now in the United States—by accident not associated with the conference on Limitation of Armaments—is Haim Naoum. grand rabbi of Turkey. The distinguished Jewish prelate came to America on behalf of the “Alliance Israelite,” primarily to Investigate colonization possibilities in Mexico, Central America and South America for Ottoman Jews. He is a brilliant and cultured man still on the I sunny side of 50 and probatly will visit ; Washington soon. • • • Lord Riddell, British press chieftain. Is ’ becoming a prime favorite with confor--1 enee scribes. Lord Riddell sees the press I folk twice a day, morning and afternoon, I and Is as communicative as the British delegation permits him to be. He thinks ! Americans the frankest question-askers he ever has met since he first made the acquaintance of Wu Tang Fang. The other night at a conference soiree e lady begged laird Riddell to tell her “quite ; confidentially" whether he was “a blood or a made peer.”—Copyright, 1921, by i Public Ledger Company.
