SPUR PLAN FOR 75-MILE ROAD CIRCLING CITY] Proposal for Belt Highway to Be Step Nearer Fulfillment. Proposal for a seventy-flve-milc circumurban highway around the I city of Indianapolis will be a step nearer fulfillment Monday, when Bruce Short, county engineer and ■ surveyor, and James T. Hallett, as- , distant road engineer for the state highway department, tour the contemplated route. Short’s proposal is that the state ; highway commission take the route Into the state system as a part of ; the announced $750,000 unemployment relief program. “Necessity for such circumurban ; highway or belt line has been recognized for years,’’ Short declared, “and now is the time to carry the ; Idea to a fulfillment.’’ With but few exceptions, and these only where state roads are touched, the contemplated belt line still is unpaved. Benefit to State It is the idea of the county commissioners and Short that these highways be turned over to the state, which after paving them shall return the route to the county. This will be of benefit to the state highway department because the county then will take charge of the maintenance work, thus relieving the' state of the upkeep costs. “It will mean a savings of miles to motorists and will relieve the city of much of the congestion occasioned by the utter necessity at present of routing all traffic through the principal thoroughfares,’’ Short pointed out. The proposed belt line is as follows, going east: Starting a few miles north of Traders Point on State Road 52 it will go east along Eighty-sixth street to across White river, then jog down to Eighty-sec-ond street through Castleton, then down-to Seventy-ninth street. Follows Southport Road Francke road will be followed south to U. S. 52, when after a short jog the route will be continued on the Senour road going into Acton. The west route will follow the Southport road to Antrim, then jog down to West Newton continuing through Camby to the StaleyBridgeport road. This will be followed through Bridgeport to U. S. 36. Following this for a half-mile east to the Country Club road which will be used north to the Crawfordsville road. Crossing this highway the Dandy trail will be followed into Traders Point, thus completing a seventy-five-milc belt line.

LOUIS BRANDEIS, FAMED LIBERAL JURISL IS 75 Supreme Court Figure Is Oldest on Bench, Excepting Holmes. BY HERBERT LITTLE I United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. Nov. 13. —Louis Dembitz Brandeis, vigorous expounder of liberal doctrine from the supreme court bench, today rounded out his first three-fourths of a century. Brandeis has been an associate justice nearly fifteen years since June 5, 1916 —and he could have retired four years ago and continued to receive his full pay of $20,000 a year. He has no birthday plans except to continue the work that keeps him busy. He and Mrs. Brandeis take no active part in official society. Brandeis is the oldest of the nine supreme court justices, except for his close friend, Oliver Wendell Holmes, who will complete his 91st year March 8, 1932. The two men, sometimes far apart in fundamental doctrine and far different in their heredity and early environment, have besn a “Damon and Pythias” team in their stand for liberal decisions. Contrasting strangely with his friend Holmes, an aristocrat and an autocrat like his author-father, Brandeis is a self-made lawyer. He was born in Louisville. He attended Harvard law school, Holmes’s alma mater. He set up to practice in St. Louis, but moved to Boston, where he practiced from 1879 to 1916. In the early part of this period he was fre-

2-Pound Baby Wears Clothes Made for Doll By 'ldmct Special SOUTH BEND. Ind., Nov. 13.—Billy, the 1 pound 12 ounce son bom to Mrs. Floyd Lambert six weeks ago, has gained four ounces sirtce birth and appears healthy. Physicians are puzzled as it is seldom a baby so tiny lives more than a few days. Most ofi Billy's time is passed in sleep. However, he is fed every two hours. The baby has never had a bath. “Oil him, but don’t bathe hi*),” is the order of physicians. The baby wears doll clothes.

quently before Holmes, a justice of the state supreme judicial court. It was in Boston that Brandeis became famous as an advocate of liberal economic and social legislation. He was most active in promoting minimum-wage laws —an activity which disqualified him from sitting in the case when the supreme court a decade ago held such laws unconstitutional. He was an important adviser of the Wilson administration and was named to the supreme court by President Wilson. His nomination stirred up a tremendous furor^ Legal men say Brandeis is the most truly liberal justice. Holmes arrives at similar conclusions in most cases, they say, through his principle of letting the people have their way, even if the Constitution has to be made a bit flexible. But his sharp old eyes see no Utopias. Brandeis has the vision of a prophet and the drive and hope of a social reformer. With all his battles, the years have been kind to Brandeis's fine face. It is deeply lined, a little like Lincoln’s was, but inexpressibly mobile and .beautiful.
