Automat ‘Cop’ Invented Here

Few motorists passing Meridian St. and Fail Creek Blvd. realize that the automatic traffic signal there flashing "Stop” and “Go” at timed Intervals was designed and built under supervision of John Barry, city electrician. The board of Safety is so well pleased with the neatness and operation of the signal that others will be built immediately and placed at other dangerous crossings. Mayor Shank has indorsed the plan. Although a similar signal is built by a St. Louis company and patent rights are obtained, the presbnt signal, officials believe. Is an improvement over the commercial one and is cheaper to construct. Patent rights may be asked. Barry today figured that the original cost of the signal was sllO with an Installation cost of S7B. Operation of the light will cost the city approximately $lO a month. A similar manufactured signal tower is quoted at $498 f. o. b. St. Louis without installation. The light is in operation twentyfour hours a day and represents a saving of sefc-ral thousand dollars to the city annually if traffic policemen were to take over the work.

Rome Determined to Hold Adriatic Port Despite Suspicions and Objections of Jugo-Slavia—Serbs See Attempt to Exclude Them, By United Press LONDON, Sept, 22. —Rumors of a possible Balkan war continued today as the long-drawn-out. negotiations between Italy and Jugo-Slavia on the settlement of the Fiume dispute failed to reach an agreement.

SPEAKER URGES RESPECT FOR LAW R, W, Mcßride Opposes Klan Before K, of C, Speaking at a luncheon of the Knights of Columbus at the Spinks Arms Hotel. Robert W. Mcßride, exjudge of the Supreme Court of Indiana, urged the upholding of the constitution and religious freedom as provided in the document. Jud,?e Mcßride pointed to the first amendment of the Constitution which provides that Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; and the amendment to Article 4 covering the right of the people to be secure In their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable search and seizures. “The Ku Klux Klan proscribes men because of religious belief, birthplace, and color,” said the speaker. “It tries men in secret and it tries and convicts men in their absence. This all is in violation of the fundamentals of the constitution.” EDWIN HILL PASSES AWAY AFTER ILLNESS Taken suddenly ill at the home of his brother-in-law, where he had resided during his wife's visit to Chicago, Edwin Hill, 50 years old, 3236 Central Ave., died at o 9’clock this morning.

stltution of anew government council which will act in a purely advisory capacity under “express regulations.” Jugo-Slavia views the whole situation with bitter suspicion. Tlie Serbs envisage an attempt to exclude them while allowing importation of Italians.

a conference In which government leaders reviewed the internal situation and the Franco-Belgian reaction to Chancellor Stresemann's proposals for conditional abandonment of resistance as made through the Belgian minister. Situation Retsembles 1918 Today’s situation in Germany resembled that of 1918, when Germany’s army admittedly had fought many months too long. Conservative Germans declared the Ruhr war also has been over-fought by at least four months. They saw the demand of Premier Poincare of France for Germany’s “complete and public capitulation” as the only exit for the government unless it wishes to face revolution similar tc that which succeeded the armistice In 1918. On every side there are indications the Internal situation is plunging toward a final crisis. Discharged workmen in the Berlin factories are threatening to prevent by force their colleagues from working and thereby so injuring the factories owners would be forced to suspend further allegedly artificial closings. The same situation applies in varying degrees throughout the nation, while the prospect of increasing unemployment probably • will cause outbreaks similar to those of last week In Baden and Upper Silesia. Weekly Wage Is Dollar Efforts to guarantee the workers a stable wage have been futile because of the continued toboganning of the mark. although * theoretically the workers are obtaining the equivalent or more than their pre-war wage, actually many of them are working for the equivalent of a dollar a week and being told to accept it or quit. Communists were utilizing this situation to stir up new troubles, preaching violence against the police, overthrow of the government and erection of a soviet-like regime.

WALTON DECLARES KLAN IS WHIPPED (Continued From Pago 1) prove "beyond a doubt” W. D. Mcßee, leader in the move for the special session of the Legislature, Is an active member of the Duncan, Okla., Klan. The Governor accused the “Klankept press” of Oklahoma of refusing to print the facts developed by the military court of inquiry. However, he said, a great many newspapers outside the State were giving “splendid service.” In order to get the facts of martial law developments before the people of the State, Jimmy Mathers of Ardmore plans to have thousands of circulars printed and dropped over the State telling of the revelations against the Klan obtained by the military court. The Governor said he would prove the Klan shipped its records to Atlanta, Oa., when the military investigation started. Offices Connected “However, we will be able to show fro n the records,” he continued, “the Klan is a lawless and criminal organization; that the sheriff's office and the office® of chiefs of police and the jury commissioners in both Tulsa and Oklahoma City are under domination of the Klan.” Farther testimony given the military court by Dr. Maupin as made public by the Governor, Dr. Maupin said: “At a meeting of Klansmen several months ago, Jewett warned local members there had been too much talk about activities of the Klan. Pen eons who have been doing tilings around Oklahoma City are liable for both McAlester and Leavenworth prisons.” Evidence Sufficient Governor Walton said sufficient evidence had been obtained to warrant prosecution of “any man in the United States who Joined the Ku-Klux Klan and remained In that organization long enough to know its ultimate purposes as an accomplice either before or after the facts.
