REMOVES POLITICS FROM ROAD WORK

"Hands off. This office is strictly non-political," was what W. O. Jones, superintendent of highways has adopted as his motto since office seekers have begun their campaigns for the November elections. A candidate asked Mr. Jones not to take any stand against him at the next election. Mr. Jones then announced that he will not permit political arguments or discussions and that he will not work for any party but that his political experiences will consist of merely voting. "This is one of the offices where it is absolutely essential that politics never enter," Mr. Jones said. "You will find my road system made up without regard to party lines. My employes have also been asked not to let politics play any part in carrying out their work."

ARMY IIIOEPEIIDEIIT OF CHARITY BOARD Captain Jewell Announces Separate Activity for Local Salvation Branch.

The Salvation Army will continue its work in Richmond Independent of the Central Bureau of Charities and Social Service. This announcement was made by Captain Jewell after the Salvation Army had been' omitted by the board of charities in making up the budget for the needs of organized charity in Richmond in the next season. The charity board refused to announce publicly why it had omitted the Salvation Army after Captain Sanford, Captain Jewell's predecessor, had taken an active part in the first organization work last winter. Members of the board of charities did make the statement that the Salvation Army had made no attempt to cooperate with or become a member of the bureau. Captain Jewell makes the assertion that the army can work better independently because of the confidential nature of their cases. He says that the Salvation Army will continue Its daily canvass of the city and will continue

to keep in as close touch with its own cases as before the bureau of charities was organized.
