STATE BOARD DRAFTS RULES FOR UTILIITES Order May Force Railroads to Get Permission to Stop Trains. . Indiana’s public service commission today is conferring on two orders that may set a precedent for certain phases of regulation for common carriers in the State and to the point of extinction the * "wildcat” electric line jobbing The order dealing with the railroads involves the manner in which train service may be abandoned and was prepared by Chairman Frank Singleton. The one dealing with the electric lines is by Commissioner Harvey Harmon. Abandonment of passenger train service on the Monon Railroad between Medaryville and Michigan City is the case in point for the Singleton order that awaits commission! approval.
State Order Ignored This service was abandoned in May without any notice to the cornemission. In a public hearing before the commissioners, the railroad attorneys contended that the road can abandon service and it is then up to the traveling public effected to institute action for hearing before the commission. They were ordered to re-establish the two trains last week, but have refused to comply. Singleton’s report today is based on a motion for rehearing, which probably will be denied. He is expected to rule that notice of abandonment must be heard before the commission and such action instituted by the road desiring to remove a train and not by the effected citizenry. Ban “Wildcat” Lines The Harmon order is one demanding lower connection fees be charged by the Belleview Power and Light Company, which operates a high-tension line furnishing electricity to rural districts. From the specific order a general rule will be deduced whicih will bring all such lines under commission control. Until the present time such utilities have operated as “wildcats” and cases have been known where a line carrying 6,500 volts was put but ten\feet from the ground and the line strung through a mass of telephone wires, Harmon said.

Neb., Sept. 18. —Nebraska City High School girls may decide for themselves, if parents do not ob ect, whether thay shall attend school with their legs covered. A member of the school board handed down an opinion recently in which he said: “If parents want to send their children to school barelegged, I don’t see where the board has jurisdiction in the matter, although it is the duty of the school board to require that students keep within the bounds of decency.” TRAINS OF ALL-STEEL Englat.U’s First Wholly Metal Passenger Rail Vehicle Operated.

tal, but the forenoon was put aside for reunion Up early and at a hearty breakfast prepared by Aurora Pierce, the housekeeper charged with keeping the home open since the death two years ago of the President’s father, Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge lost little time in repairing to the Hillside cemetery, where Calvin, Jr., their younger son, lies buried. It was shortly after 8 o’clock when they approached the grave, surrounded by the modest flat stone. Flowers from the whitg House greenhouses in Washington were laid silently upon the marker. Alongside the youngster, who died just four years ago this summer, are the graves of the President's father, mother and sister, and these, too, were decorated. Returning to ’the small frame house, set just a few yards off the crossroads that marks all there is of the hamlet of Plymouth, Coolidge retired to the porch and greet-

Then he will continue the swing through that area of Vermont which was devastated last fall by mountain floods, a trip arranged at the behest of Governor Weeks, who wanted the executive to see personally how quickly his native State had rehabilitated itself.
