DUNES RELIEF ROAD BRANDED ‘CHINESE WALL' Michigan City Suffering Trade Loss, Claim of Residents. Dunes relief road, which cost the state hundreds r* thousands of dollars, i* termed 'Michigan City's Great Chinese Wall” by residents of that community, who are seeking to finance another road over the old route which passed through the city itself. In a plea to the state tax board, where request has been made for * $125,000 bond issue to finance the city construction, the citizens charged that the state highway commission has built the Dunes relief road at the sacrifice of Michigan City’s merchants. The Dunes relief road is not yet completed, as overhead construction now is under way at the northern end and leading into Gan,-. It already is one of the most expensive projects ever financed by the state highway department, reports reveal. A delegation of leading Michigan,

i City taxpayers called on Governor Harry G. Leslie this week to tell him of their difficulties. They do not want the state tax board to approve the 1125.000 bond issue, since taxes there are already too high, they asserted. They said they wanted traffic rerouted from the Dunes relief road into Michigan City. John L. Moorman. Knox.. Indiana state prison board chairman, introduced the delegation, j He explained that several years ago when the industries in the Calumet district were at their height such a road as the Dunes relief might have been needed. But it is purely a "white elephant" now and never will carry much traffic, he predicted. Michigan City will suffer from ; the loss of trade passing over the new' route and any aid to business ! there is sorely needed. Moorman declared. Moorman also predicted that after the next legislature meets the state highway department will not have funds for further financing of such projects. He contended that much of their present revenues will be ! diverted to the local communities | and the local road levies lifted from i the tax duplicates. Europe's Rotarians to U. S.

BILL FOR U.S. | OPERATION OF SHOALS PASSED Hoover Almost Certain toj Veto Measure If Senate Gives House Action 0. K. By United Pee** WASHINGTON, May 6—The house once more has passed a bill under which the great power and nitrate plants at Muscle Shoals would be put to work. But as the measure provides for partial government operation, it is expected to be vetoed by President Hoover when, and if, it is approved ' by the senate. All previous bills for government operation have been vetoed by the Coolidge and Hoover administrations. The new measure was adopted by the house late Thursday, 183 to 132. It provides for government operation of the power plant. Nitrate production facilities w r ould be leased to private companies within eighteen months. If no one leased the nitrate plants in that time, they, too, would be operated by the government.
