Nil SHOULD WORRY WHO WINS ILLINOIS RACE He’s Sitting Pretty Because Both,Smith and Brennan Are His Friends. Bv Timri .Special CHICAGO, July 30. Either Frank L. Smith, Republican, or George Brennan, Democrat, will be the next United States Senator from Illinois. Next November the voters of Illinois—or about 50 per cent of them—wiil walk to the polls and vote. They will vote like so many sheep. Some will be Republican sheep; others will be Democratic sheep, but they'll all be sheep. But Sam Insull will be sitting pretty no matter who is elected. Both are his friends. He gave liberally to Brennan an& more liberally to Smith. But Smith had a fight on his hands and Brennan did not. Insull says it’s Brennan’s fault that he didn’t give him more money. All Look Alike Now Brennan is wet and Smith is dry. The Anti-Saloon League is for Smit and the anti-prohibitionists are for Brennan. But that doesn’t interest Insull. He gave money to both. V s, drys, Democrats. Republicans—they all look alike to the biggist public utility operator in the world. That's what Roy O. West, secretary of the R- publican national committee, says Insull is. And West ought to know. Asa lawyer he represented Insull in some matters. He says he is a substantial owner of securities in Tnsull’s public . utilities.. West supported Senator McKinley at the Illinois Republican primary and Insull contributed SIO,OOO, though West says Insull told him not to use it in the senatorial light. But West dumped the SIO,OOO into the McKinley-Deneen-Lundin fight just the same. Popular AU Around So West thinks well of Insull. No does Frank Smith. So does George Brennan. West says Senator Deneen asked for United States deputy marshals to protect the Deneen-Lundin-West workers from the gunmen and thugs of the Smith-Crowe-Barrett faction at the April primary. But Insull contributed thousands to both factions. He likes 'em all. Politics is business with Sam Insulk, the biggest public utility operator in the world. No matter which party wins at the election Insull can’t loose. His pocketbook plays all ends against the middle. Where does he get the money? From the plain people who pay gas bills, light and power bills and street car fares—the peo,ple who vote men into office as Republicans or Democrats. These

Where Memorial's Shrine Will Rest
l"’
' \ 1 The structural steel foundation for the main shrine of the World War Memorial Plaza, which will be covered with a fireproof composition containing concrete, forms a giant wheel, more than one hundred feet in diameter. The massive girders touch each other at the “hub.” Large buildings stood on this site less than six months ago.
foolish people think that the Senators, Congressmen, legislators, Governors, mayors and councilmen are the people's servants. But they are not. They take orders from the Smiths, Smalls, Crowes, Wests and Barretts, and all these are vef.v grateful to their good and liberal friend Sam Insull, because he gives them money with which to control primaries' and elections—money he got from the people for gas, elecfricity and street car rides. People are Republicans and Democrats. Dollars and dimes are dollars and d'/nes. Every, dime the Insulls put into politics comes back home dragging a dollar along with it. Knowing how to make dimes coax dollars Into his cash box is what makes Insull the biggest public utility operator in the world. THREE YEARS DRIVING It would take a motorisS more than three years to cover the 400,000 miles of paved highways in this couritry, if he drove every day for twelve hours at an average of thirty miles an hour. BIG BRIDGE TRAFFIC The new bridge across the Delaware River between Philadelphia and Camden was crossed by 223,000 automobiles and motorcycles during the first six days of its use. Its capacity is for 6,000 cars an hour. READY FOR TRAFFIC The two big vehicular tubes under the Hudson River, New York, are expected to be open for traffic this fall. They're 9,250 feet long and cost $49,000,000. They'll have a daily capacity of 46.000 vehicles.

ENGINEERS FIND POLICE AND FIRE DIVISIONS GOOD Board Member Denies Underwriters Insisted on Removals. While strongly urging that changes in higher offices at the start of each city administration be curtailed, the National Board of Fire Underwriters’ engineers found both police and fire departments In good condition during their recent survey here. “Police Chief Claude F. Johnson and Fire Chief Jesse A Hutsell were praised especially by William De Bohn, who headed the engineers,” O. P Haskett, board of safety president, said today. • Upon the report of the engineers depends the fire insurance rating of Indianapolis. Board members hope the city will retain its present Class 2 rating, one of the highest In the country. * Haskett denied reports that the

“For the past 15 years I have used your splendid soap, though I had given up in despair of having a good, clear skin, but after using Resinol Soap for one month I noticed a decided improvement. I have also two girls, age five and two, who boast of splendid skin, and they have always been washed with Resinol Soap. I can assure you of my complete confidence in this tuja p as well as °L" t u ent corns and callouses.” (Signed) Vola M. Wheeler. 3443 Chestnut Ave., Baltimore, Md., July 18. —Advertisement.

underwriters had insisted upon, removal of Roy K. Phillips and (Kenneth Burns, assistant fire chiefs, and Horace T. Carey, fire prevention bureau chief. “Mr. De Rohn said ‘I may have some changes to recommend in the fire department personnel’,” Haskett said. “There were no, n#mes mentioned.” A handicap of twenty-five points first ’ marked against the police department was removed after a thorough survey by the engineers, Haskett said. Oppose Demotions The engineers were emphatic in opposition to demotions and removals in the two departments with- i out cause.'Haskett asserted. Five patrolmen, named by the [ board at a special meeting Thursday, today were assigned to work by Police Chief Johnson. They are: Roscoe K. Jordan, Car!
