PERMANENT HIGHWAYS ARE URGED AS BASIS OF OUR COUNTY SYSTEM

By ROSCOE- FLEMING J on a road building program "which will pave, almost thirty miles of the main arteries jt county traffic, will cost the county something over $750,000, and vill have a lasting effect on Wayne prosperity. - - The county commissioners, it is understood, may decide, upon the material -to be used upon the first unit of this great program, the eighteen miles of the Hagerstown pike, on Monday. June 2. The: materials from which they will make their choice will be brick, concrete, bituminous macadam, and creosoted wood block. The first three are the only ones that have been considered seriously, as creosoted wood has never-been popular for road building In this county, and there is only one tiny link of it in the city or county. Favor Bituminous Macadam The commissioners, before whom . the petition has been for several weeks " - M I - nave ueen mamns ubiiwiiuus ui iuaua in and about Muncie and Cincinnati. The; roads to which they have paid . most attention have been those of bi.tumlnous macadam, and it is understood that the commissioners lean strongly to the use of this material, because it is said to be cheaper than the other two materials. "Wth- - ni'i m re m rtf thin llzA which will increase taxes for the next Several - .1 ,411 ImHiiahma Via U Vmill.. J. 1 1 . - urn aim lUl.,UCUA.O AW AW next half century the county's prosperity, it .has been urged by many citizens that the commissioners wait and examine' roads of t other materials than those of bituminous macadam. An Unprejudiced Inspection. An inspection Thursday morning of several of the main roads of Richmond and vicinity revealed , that as laid out before the eyes of any citizen who 'cares to look, different types of roads ;have widely varying powers of resist ance to traffic and weather. - : The Inspection was conducted with no other end in.-view than to see the present conditions of the roads, questions of cost and maintenance not entering into it now. The three miles of the National Road, east, to the county line, were imade of water-bound macadam, with a bituminous filler. This road was begun in 1912 and finished In 1913, six f years ago. Since that time it has been resurfaced and W. O. Jones, county superintendent of highways, began work Thursday on the resurfacing of it again. This road is in wretched condition. Holes a foot across and three or four feet long, filled with the jafged rocks of the foundation, which by one touch can wreck a tire, lie so close as almost to touqa each other. Only two months- ago this .road was fairly smooth and even. Once begun, wear evidently proceeds fast on a road of this type,, it must . be concluded, ana the only way to stop It Is by re-surfacing. Cannot Resist Traffic - It is evident from one look that roads , of this type cannot resist the pulling, " sucking influence exerted by automo bile at nigh speed, and that once started and filled with water, tiny holes grow rapidly. The condition of this road has been for the last month the talk of roadmen of the county. It has, of course, had unusually heavy trafflc because prohi bition , Impending in Ohio, but this trafflc at its news Via no heavier than the ordinary trafflc of the county will be in a few more years. The next visit was made to concrete roads on North Tenth street between F. and H streets, and to the New Paris pike and the Hawkins road. The Tenth street road, made in 1914, is in good condition, with the exception of slight wear and tiny holes where . the pebbles of the surface have worn down and have been yanked out by the tremendous suc tion action of the tires of passing automobiles. - - . 'I he - beginnings or ratal wear are seen In this street in large cracks, although it has been down only five years, and is one of the best-made con crete streets in Richmond. Liarger holes are found in the New AN EASILY MADE APRON. 2642 Seersucker, chambra, gingham, lawn, percale, drill, linen and alapaca are nice for this style. The pattern is cut in four sizes: Small, 32-34; Medium, 36-38; Large, 40-42; Extra Large, 44-46 inches bust measure. Size Medium will require 2 yards of 36-inch material.

which are in much worse shape, al though only - a year older than the Tenth street roadway. Larger gravel was used and when a pebble jerks out of the surface it leaves a larger hole. In many places the surface of these roads have given way and left a rough, uneven hole with .the edges two or three inches high. ' Both are bound with iron bindings, which project out of the concrete and bump passers-by every few feet. Both will need expensive attention In the next few years. Main Stands Heavy Traffic . Main street, the last to be traveled, is perhaps the most heavily-pounded piece of street or roadway in the county,, or Indeed within many miles of Richmond. Part of this street, that from Fourth to Sixtja street and from Ninth to Twentieth, has been down since 1893, and that between Sixth and Ninth has been down twenty-eight years, since 1891. The street is In splendid condition. The city, according to officials of the city engineer s office, has never had to be repaired, even the oldest Btretches, ex cept where' excavations have caused bricks to sink and had to be re-leveled. The bricks of this stretch were laid In sand and crushed stone, a process which Is considered less likely to give satisfaction than laying them in con crete. Figures have been secured on the comparative cost of maintenance and length of life of several streets and roads of the three types, which will probably be published in the Palladium soon. FORTY BOYS READY FOR Y. 11. C. A. GAMP Forty Richmond boyB are signed up and nearly packed for the Y. M. C. A. Boys' camp on the Great Miami river, fourteen miles from Dayton, June 12 to 21. Intense interest is shown in the camp and preparation is progressing at a fast rate of speed. Although forty boys -will make a lively enough camp, fifty is the number which is wanted. Secretary O. M. Brunson warns that other boys wanting to go should hurry their registration if they want to get in. Director F. K. Harding is in charge of the camp. The following lads have enrolled: Ralph Anderson, Charles Surrendorf, Robert Morgan, Ancll Bostick, Joe Cox, Edwin Parkhurst, Eugene Kenny, Scott Benham, Rex, Sauter, James Lacey, John Lacey, Frank Cunningham, Robert Carson, William Marshall, John Teegarden, David Marvel, James Ross, Dick Crawford, Norman Johanning, Louis Hoessli, Frederick Wier, Howard Taurman, George Darnell, Fred Thlstlethwaite, Walter Fulghum, Hilbert Woodhurst, Charles Ayers, Russell Taylor, Frederick Clark, John Fitzpatrick, Cletus Lake, Robert i Davis, Lewis Davis. James Williams, I John Coate. Richard Holcomb, James i Rees, Homer MeyerT, Keif er Calkins and Vernon Spaulding. Scout troop boys of the First English Lutheran church have engaged a tent, while the boys of Allen Jay Memorial church will also take a tent, it is thought. Boy Scont Movement To Be Put Before Public Boy Scout week beginning June S, is to be put before the people of Rich mond in as comprehensive manner as will be possible, according to plans un der way at present. ' . Nine scout organizations have been formed in Richmond during the last few months under the scoutmastership of the following men: W. D. Scoble, Paul Brown, Stephen Rohlflng, A. B. Craig, R. M. Allen, A. L. Shaw, S. S. Vernon and Raymond Fossenkemper. Troop 3, formerly under the leadership of Sam Vigran, is an active organization, but at present has no leader. Several other troops, though fully organized with boys and leader, have not completed their routine organiza tion, which they will do in the near future. The ministers of the city have been asked to present the Boy Scout movement in their churches on Sunday, June 8. Beside that other means to be arranged later, are to be used to bring to the public eye the value of the Boy Scout organization and movement, the patriotic service these boys have done during the war, and what is now left for them to accomplish . It is thought that a scout picture will be shown in a local theater as a part of the week's plan. Richmond should have a City Scout Council, which would mean the obtainance of $100 budget, O. M. Brunson said today. Such a council would be a second class body, a paid executive not being needed in Richmond, he explained. The commissioner here would be a voluntary office and not a scout master. FEDERAL CONTROL OF WIRES URGED (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, May 29 Enactment of permanent legislation validating the present increased telegraph toll rates and placing the telephone systems of the country under federal regulation so as to prevent financial embarassment of the systems when they are returned to private owner ship was urged before the senate in terstate commerce committee today by N. C. Kingsbury, vice president of the Bell Telegraph and Telephone company. Mr. Kingsbury was the first witness before the committee on legislation looking to the return of the telegraph and telephone property. Representatives of the other wire companies, the unions and the government will be called at an early date. Failure of congress in authorizing the president to take over control of the wires, to designate the rate-making authority was termed a "blunder", by Mr. Kingsbury, who declared this situation should be corrected immediately. "What we would like is definite legislation releasing us from the control of 44 different state commissions," said be.

"Americans, temporarily resident in enemy territory during the war, will have little difficulty in having their property returned to them under the new conditions following the signing of the armistice," Attorney General Palmer today told the Illinois Bar association, discussing the work of the alien property custodian's office. Much new light on the work of running to earth enemy interests in the United States was given by the Attorney General, who was alien property custodian before he entered the cabinet. He recounted how it was discovered that eighteen German owned insurance companies and the big Crenstein-Arthur Koppel Co., near Pittsburg, manufacturing dump cars, cranes and inside railways, insisted always that plans of the factories of the firms with which they did business, including United States Steel, Bethlehem, Midvale and Carnegie, thould be furnished so that the. blue prints might be sent to the home office in Berlin. "I am not a suspicious person," Mr. Palmer said, "but when I discovered that our great munition plants were being blown up and that the bombs were always planted in the most vulnerable spot in a mill by somebody who knew every foot of the plans of those mills, I began to wonder whether there was any connection between those circumstances. It is still one of the unsolved riddles of the war." Mr. Palmer said the Crenstein company asked Ambassador Von Bernstorff to intercede with Berlin to allow them to take a contract from the Russian government, because they could help win the war for Germany by failing to deliver the goods.

Seborrhea Kills the Hair Famo Kills Seborrhea

Seborrhea is an old trouble to which scientists have given a new name. And science has found in Famo a new way of overcoming it. Seborrhea is the disease which kills the roots of the hair by means of the deadly dandruff bacilli. It does to the hair what pyorrhea docs to the teeth. Famo is a formula worked out in one of the great pharmaceutical houses of Detroit. Three years were required to develop Famo. It proved its efficacy before it wan offered to the public. The way in which Famo does its work is almost unbelievable. Transformation is Wonderful Almost at once your eyes testify to the transformation. New hair grows like the hair of healthy children The scalp becomes like the scalp of a baby. All itching of the calp is stopped. Famo brings back the look of health by a softness and lustre beyond words to describe. Famo Destroys Bacilli Famo removes the obstacle to growth, when it kills the seborrhea (dandruff) bacilli. Freed from the bondage of disease, the hair leaps into luxuriance. In women the change is wonderful. If their hair was normally beautiful, the beauty is intensified. Stops Seborrhea 1 lire
