WOULD PROHIBIT USE OF CERTAIN SIGNS

The lower house of the Indiana general assembly, by a unanimous vote Friday, passed House Bill No. 45, which -prohibits the display of signs resembling railway crossing signs at other places than rall| road crossings. This measure affects thousands of cross-arm advertising signs sold to merchants and other lines of business in Indiana last season, which were placed on the , public highways and cause strangers to think that they were railroad crossing warnings until they were close by, or when driving at night? hence the passage of this bill.
