Doberman Poses Haughtily As Ordinary Dogs Watch

pion Ferry von Giralda, son of Troll

Ferry is king of the Doberman Pinchers and Xe knows it. He posed stately as a stag as he was exhibited briefly vis morning by his trainer, Russell E. Zimmermann of Van Nuys, Cal. Von Rauhfelsen is going back to the West Coast after a series of Eastern and Midwest dog shows. « | Born to dogdom’s purple, Ferry has a great mission to perform, according to Mr. Zimmerman. He is the last great Doberman out of Germany and its up to him to represent the finest of the Doberman breed in the United States. The Nazis, pre-occupied by war, haven't the time and the food to raise Dobermans, Mr. Zimmerman said.

Insured by Lloyds

This makes Ferry virtually priceless, although Lloyds of London has insured him for only $10,000. With Ferry and his sire, Troll von Englesberg, who lives in Peoria, Ill, on American soil, it looks as though the United States will become the Doberman center of. the world.

Zimmerman said. The big Doberman is trained to] get his man and he doesn't let the Dale Carnegie principle of making friends influence him the slightest.

Movie Colony Trainer

Mr. Zimmerman, a former -Hoo- | sier, now handles and trains dogs for the Los Angeles movie colony and other Californians. Ferry is owned by L. R. Randle of San Francisco. He was brought over from Germany last year by Mrs. Geraldine Dodge of New York City.

MOHLER ATTACK

ON STATE WPA

Hits Charge Made About Highway Project Near Liberty.

State WPA Administfator John K Jennings today decried the statement of William E. Mohler, Indiana General Contractors’ Association president, that the WPA had built

a highway near Liberty at excessive 5

cost. In a recent address before the In-

dianapolis Construction League, Mr. Mohler charged that the four and one-half mile stretch of 20-foot paving was, built by the WPA at a cost of $278;800 compared to a private contractor's bid of $188,000 for the roadway.

Mr. Jennings asserted the paving|:

described by Mr. Mohler had not been done by the WPA. The road was built by the State as part of a

.|Federal experiment to determine

whether State governments could build highways cheaper by buying materials and hiring labor themselves than by letting the work to private contractors, he said.

but aloofly held his head up with his cold brown eyes staring straight ahead. After the picture was over, Ferry was left to romp. In a flash, the purple mantle of royalty fell from He began to dig in the grass, just like the ordinary dogs which were watching him from a safe distance.

We're going to keep this fair completely informal. | That's a promise.” The promise comes from Fair-chief Gibson. To control food prices, the biggest bugaboo of 1939, the Fair board this year contracted to keep them at a carnival-time minimum. All restaurants have agreed in writing. to keep prices down to last” season’s closing levels—considerably under the first-days’ whoppers. ; Pre-season estimation of attendance last year proved embarrassing, and this year none is willing to stick his neck out.

‘Safest City' Is Most Congested

Times Special CLEVELAND, April 3.—Traffic in Cleveland, sixth largest U. S. city, is the most congested in the country, yet the Ohio metropolis holds undisputed the title, “Safest large City in the Nation.” Cleveland counts 205 commercial and pleasure vehicles to every mile of her street system, while New York and Chicago have but 152 and 162, respectively. These figures were released by the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce. In New . York and Chicago, where cars swarm to central business districts, streets are more “crowded, but traffic moves faster and corigestion is relieved. Wider streets, more arterial and express highways, and fewer restricting traffic lights are antidotes. for congestion in U. S. cities where vehicular travel is heaviest.

{nothing to do with it,” Mr. Jennings declared.

“We investigated Mr. Mohler’s assertions,” he said, “and we found that in the fall of 1933. the Federal Government allotted certain sums of money to each state.

“The State was instructed to receive bids on a number of highway jobs. It then was ordered to select one of these jobs and do. it by ‘force account,” by which the State itself purchased the materials, hired the labor and rented the equipment for the work. “It is my understanding that this was done by the Federal Government as a matter of comnarison between the actual cost of force ac-

Makes Distinction “The four and one-half miles of

County near Liberty was chosen as a force account job and construction began in the spring of 1934. It should be understood—and this was a point which Mr. Mohler overlooked—that this was neither a project of the WPA or of any previous work-relief program.
