Greeks Hail Coaster |, For Legless Soldiers
Young U. S. Diplomat Invents Wheel Chair, Too, for Use by Injured Warriors. |
By GEORGE W. WELLER Copyright, 1841, by The Indianapolis Times and The Chicago Daily News, Inc. ATHENS, March 22. —Legless Greek soldiers, brought back from the § Albanian front to enter convalescence, are finding new hope through two
unique hospital devices designed by
George Lewis Jones, a young Amer- ||
ican diplomat, who is a member of the legation staff. hn Mr, Jones, who holds the rank of commercial attache, after six years
service in Greece, propelled floor coaster for legless men that created a wave of enthusiasm among veterans when introduced experimentally in an Athenian hoszpital. Among hospital executives and Red Cross officials, the two devices have likewise been received with delight because economy is the keynote of their design. Mr. Jones has perfected both original models in his own workshop at his home in Psychico, a suburb of Athens. The wheel chair is a solid pine affair resembling a steamer chair with the leg-rest eliminated. The seat itself is a curve of canvas. The front legs rest on the ground, the rear are two solid wooden wheels mounted on an axle. vehicle is an adaptation of the cantilever principle, which gives the chair extremely steady balance. A 7-year-old child can whee] an invalid man of the heaviest stature. Mr. Jones began designing the chair after the Italian invasion when he found that the Greeks were short of whee] chairs and the cheapest obtainable cost 2500 drachmas, or about 816.50. The third of his successively improved models is now being made by craftsmen in the employ of the near east foundation for approximately $4.60. Although heavier than a tube wheeler steel chair, it can be folded, for shipment, to the size of a large suitcase

CITY MAY SUE | ON COURT FEES
Division With County Leads To Legal Dispute; Clerk Withholds Funds.
A test case may be filed in the courts soon to unravel a complicated dispute over the division of Municipal Coutt docket fees between the County and City treas- | uries. i So far as Mr. Taxpayer is con-| cerned it's mostly a matter of tak-| ‘ing money out of one pocket and putting it into another but it's vital to the financial showings of the re-! spective departntents of government. For many years the County Clerk | has been turning over to the City | all Municipal Court fees collected in |cases involving violations of City ordinances. These amounted to! about $10 a case, totaling between | | $1000 and $1500 a month.
| Eye Docket Fees
Last December City officials decided their treasury ought to be getting more revenue out of the Municipal Courts, specifically docket | fees from criminal cases based upon State laws as well as City ordinances. And an opinion issued last Dec. 30 | by Samuel Jackson, former Attorney | General, upheld this contention. These docket fees in cases based on State laws have been turned over to the County treasury by Clerk Charles R. Ettinger. They amount to $5 a case.
