BRIEF DEMANDS . L & N. MAGNATE ANSWER QUERY
WASHINGTON. Aug.. lfl.Insisting that it i illegal for railroad to have ny secrets from the - people, Chief Counsel Joseph W. Folk, on behalf of the lnteritate commerce commission, today filed in the supreme court of the District of Columbia a brief In support of the commission's petition asking that Milton H. Smith, president of the LoulBTille & NaBhrllle railway, be compelled to answer questions put to him
by the commission.
These interrogations pertain to al
leged political campaign contributions, the hiring of legislative lobbyists and the using of railroad funds to create public sentiment in favor of the railroad. Follow Investigation. The buR is a sequel to the investigation of the Louisville & Nashville instigated following a resolution offered by Senator Luke Lea of Tennessee, and adopted by the senate, directing an inquiry into the company's financial affairs. Senator Lea personally filed with the commission a complaint alleging that the railroad was using passes and bribes to corrupt politicians in legislatures of the states through which the railroad operates. President Smith of the Louisville & Nashville, who has been chief executive of the road since 18S4, was a picturesque witness at the investigation. He declined to give the commission details of the road's financial operations, declaring that a railroad had two sides a public and a private one and that the privacy was invaded by a governmental demand to know what was done with the road's money. Counsellor Folk's brief argues that the government has complete supervision over interstate railroads, and that no expenditure can be properly deemed as private if the stockholders' money is spent. Without such supervision, railroads can be wrecked and
stockholders ruined, the brief argues.
The court has set Wednesday, August
16, for oral argument of the case.

Encouraged by the success of their campaign against those motorists who persisted in. oj!e,rating their cars without state license plates, the police are again to declare war on motorists who insist on operating " their ' machines in the city at night without dimmed headlights. k Caling reporters to his office this morning, Chief of Police Goodwin requested publication of an ultimatum to the effect that - beginning tonight every motorist found operating a machine without dimmed headlights would be arrested and prosecuted in city court. "Not one in ten; thousand automobile drivers observes the dimmer ordinance and I now Intend to remind them that such an ordinance is on the statute books," the chief said. "I expect that I have warned a thousand automobile drivers in recent months to drive with dimmed lights but these warnings have not been taken seriously. Now I am going to force the observance of this ordinance. The many acidents resulting from drivers being blinded by glaring headlights point to the necessity of inforcing the dimmer law." Chief Goodwin also announced that the state law requiring automobiles to come to a stop when a street car in front of them stops was also to be rigorously inforced. About a year ago wholesale arrests were made for violation of the dimmer ordinance but these cases were never prosecuted, the validity of the ordinance being questioned. City author
ities are confident now that the ordinance is valid and they plan to make effective use of it.

The Durand statement raises squarely the question of veracity as between Secretary Redfleld and himself. Durand is now a professor in the University of Minnesota. Scathes Administration. After reading the Durand letter Mr. Hugher launched into a scathing denunciation of the Wilson administration, not only reiterating his charges made heretoiore bat directly accusing the power that be at Washington with having willfully prostituted the public service of this country by turning out expert public servants and putting political favorites in their pkvees.

ARCHITECT

without giving the architect of this j
city tne opportunity of submitting plans and specifications for the proposed Junior High school. One of u might be able, you know, to plan Just as good a school building as Daggett is capable of doing but no Richmond architect has had the chance to show what he could do. We have to pay taxes for the support of this and ill other locji! schools, however. No Plana Were Asked. 'Rwt-ntly the school board called a meeting of all local architects and the construction of the Junior High school was discussed. However, we were not Hsked to present plans and drawings of the building. All the school board Bbked us to do was to 'submit references,' This I did and, I suppose, the other architects did, We heard nothing more about the Junior High school matter until Mr, Giles 6ent out a letter announcing that Daggett had been
employed as architect for the new school building. We only wanted a rhance to compete to secure this contract but no opportunity for cotnpetf tin was afforded," The proposed Junior High school is lo be erected on the northeast corner tf South Twelfth and A streets, the present Garfield building being a part )f it. The site of the new building Mil be the two lots to the -north, of
the Garfield building. Construction i rork will probably start next summer.

Here Is True Kodak Efficiency
You can make a photograph with a pin hole for a lens. Cheap cameras have small lenses, with correspondingly small openings but fast enough for snap-shots in a good light. As you get into the better grades, the lenses grow larger. True efficiency requires a lens of fairly long focus that will work with a large opening a big lens in a big shutter. That's the kind you find in the No. 1 Autographic Kodak Special. And with it a shutter that has a speed up to 1-300 of a second. Here is true efficiency with nothing sacrificed to mere littleness. And in every detail of construction and finish this little camera shows evidence of having come from the factory where honest workmanship has become a habit. "
