NEED OF RECREATIONAL CENTER FOR RICHMOND GIRLS ARE TOLD IN TALK
Misa Elsie Marshall spoke before the
civics department of the Women's clubTuesday afternoon on the plans fo thev
women's and girls' committee of Rich-; mond Community service for 1923. Her speech follows: j "Most oC ua are aware of the lack of opportunities furnished by Rich-J mond for irla to Improve themselves in their leisure time. Through all these years we- have had ample facilities for a great girls' program,, but have lacked the leadership to enable us to make utte of them. Most of these are unseen and. out of the minds of people. For instance, we have great recreation halls in connection with local factories, nme of which have already been 'offered for girls' work. These nulls are finely equipped and c an be u.ed for a great variety of. activities. "Many of our" churches have facilities which could be used by various groups, when not being used by church organizations. Our own South Eighth Street Friends church last year refurnished its old gymnasium and it is
now being used by various groups of.
girls for basketball practice; Turna Over Rooms. "One church turned, over its spacious rooms to a community wide club of strangers,, may of whom are girls and women who have recently come to our city. Both St. John's' and St. Andrew's churches have well equipped halls, including; stage. The Union Mission is available, and the new addition to St. Paul's Episcopal church will soon be finished and lias already been offered
lor giiiti' activities. "The policy of our Indiana school system has been to make buildings available for community uses, and our

HONESTY IN BUSINESS ROTARIAN AIM, SAYS HATFIELD, STATE HEAD "Rotary is fundamentally a business organization for business men," said Frank II. Hatfield, of Evansville, Rotary governor for the Indiana district.
in -MX address to the noon meeting of
the Richmond Rotary club, Tuesday.
"Sotary memiers must look to it
that they maintain high ideals and that ibt Ideals are satisfied in the daily liwes of members," said the speaker. "Omly in this way can the club hope to support civic enterprises with th? hope of success that is given by the iuestige attaching to a body known to- consist of men of, high character' Strong cfl mmendation was given the local club Is work with Richmond boys, which formt d the theme for much of the visiting official's talk. "In this work you will find another reason for beeping your individual and club ch.ara.cter spotless," he said, "for all boys instinctively emulate some man of theJr acquaintance. The pathos of thus trait is t.hat so often the example selected falls so far short of what he should be."
Honesty Emphasized
Honesty in business w as emphasized

said, "The oid principle, upon which business was conducted, was 'let the
of our buildings are now being used
for community activities,, such a3 par-: erit-teacher associations, music groups, etc., which are still available for many more activities. Parks and playgrounds may be used for many outdoor sports. Receive Community Program. "Some time ago a large group of community-minded Richmond people received with considerable enthusiasm a plan for orsanizing a community wide program through the assistance f a great national civic organization, which" draws a large part of its support from the Russell-Sage Foundation. "From its beginning in Richmond, girl work has had a large place in
the thoughts and program or tnese people. One of the first committees was the one on women's and girls' activities, with Mrs. Paul Ross as its chairman. This committee ha3 not only been active in promoting work distinctively for girls but has always given assistance in the communitywide program, both for men and wo meri. "Many organizations have co-operated with this committee in its work. The .Woman's club has been in close touch with the work, and many of its members, including your president, have aided in the promotion of its work. Committee is Named "The committee giving its special attention to women's and girls activities for-this year is as follows: "Miss Elsie Marshall, chairman;
Mis3 Clara Comstock, Mrs. Paul Ross, Mrs.: Arthur Charles, Mrs. Allen Hole, Misi Bertha Larsh, Mrs. Fred Bates, Mrs; W. A. Klein, Mrs. Gath Free

Sloo.um they have been able to accom-j plish some of the things which seemed I
buyer beware?. Rotary has reversed this rule, warning insiead, 'let the seller beware.' "It is the practice of all Rotaxians
to- assure themselves In their dealings
with customers, clients or patrons,
that each shall receive a dollars' worth
o service, or ailvice, Or merchandise,
for every dollar expended. 'He profits most who serves best,' has been found
to be literally tme. "The individual thus bears a- close
personal relationship to the clui), the
regard in which It is heid is peculiar

TRAINS ARE TAKEN OFF
BECAUSE PATRONAGE SLUMPCAUSES LOSS Benjamin McKeen, vlce-piresident, southwestern region, Pennsylvania railroad system, referring to the rearrangement of passenger train service on Jan. 14, in a statement received here today said:
"As the changes involves thof dis
continuance of certain local trails, I
am very anxious that the public Bhall understand the situation and th ne
cessities under which we are acting
What we are endeavoring to do is to
reconstruct our purely local service upon a scale more nearly in accpird with the real needs of the public, .s evidenced by the actual1 volume tt'i
travel on these trains, by eliminatitTft'
those local trains on which patronage has fallen so low as no longer to warrant their continuance.
"Local passenger train service in
the southwestern region of the Pennsylvania railroad system is at present only being maintained at a very heavy and rapidly increasing loss. We have
no expectation that the changes which
are to be made will render this local
service profitable or even self-sustaining. We are only endeavoring to mitigate the loss where that can be
accomplished with due regard for pub
lic convenience.
Competition is Keen Formerly local passenger trains
were well patronized. About 25 years
ago the development of electric in-
terurban traction lines started ana
this was pushed with great rapidity
until the electric serviee paralleled
the ma jority of the steam lines in our
territory, particularly in central and
southern Indiana and Ohio.
"Now still another form ot competition has arisen. We refer to the immense travel in motor vehicles which is following the extremely rapid extension of our hard-surfaced and other improved highways which are paralleling both the steam railroads and the electric systems. From such centers as Indianapolis and Cincinnati there probably are nearly as many motor bus lines operating today as there are electric lines. "Between St. Louis and Indianapolis the National highway has been completed this year as a continuous hard-surfaced road, mainly concreted, paralleling our main line. Between Indianapolis and Columbus the National highway also exists as a highly improved hard-surfaced load, and in that territory is also absorbing a large volume of local trade. Highways Developed "In recent years the states of Illi
nois, Indiana and Ohio there has been
spent upward of 1160.000,000 on im
proved highways and this has brought about extensive changes in the travel customs of the people, deeply affecting the railroads. Nor should we lose
sight of the fact that the railroads
through the continually greater burdens of taxation which are being
placed upon them, are among the
chief contributors to the building of these highways which are absorbing
their local traffic. "Generally speaking, on the south
western lines of the. Pennsylvania railroad system, the direct out-of-pocket cost of operating local passenger train service has risen to be
about double the receipts. This means that it costs us a direct outlay of S2
cash to get $1 of gross revenue, and
this out-of-pocket cost includes only
such items as are a direct charge against the operation of trains, such as wages of crews, maintenance of cars and locomotives, expenditures for fuel and train supplies, and makes no allowance for outlays for maintenance
of tracks, buildings and terminals, nor
does it include salaries of agents and
operators or amounts paid for taxes
insurance, interest on bonds and oth
er overhead expenses."

ENFORCEMENT STRESS MIGHT HAVE BEATEN DRY LAW, NICHOLSON Referring to the criticism of the prohibition law, voiced by Dudley Foulke pointing out the lack of enforcement legislation and civil service provisions i nthe original law, Timothy Nicholson expressed the opinion Tuesday that
such provisions might have resulted in the defeat of the bill.
He stated further, that putting the enforcement urler the civil service, while it would have been more desirable than the methods that were followed, still probably would not have meant a perfect enforcement, as it would have resulted only in selection of a higher type, but still not of perfect enforcement officers. They would have been subject to, and some would have been responsive to the terrible temptations offered in the work, said Mr. Nicholson. "While the prohibition bill might have been a more, desirable one from the standpoint of prohibitionists, if
rigid enforcement provisions had been
incorporated," said Mr. Nicholson
"Such an uncompromising attitude of
Insistance on the whole loaf and load
ing of the legislation with additional provisions, In the opinion ot Anti-
Saloon League leaders, would have re
sulted in its indefinite delay. "It i3 the league leaders and the national legal representative, Wayne B,
Wheeler, w ho were responsible for this
decision and for the form of the bill
as it was drafted, rather than S. E.
Nicholson, and he should not receive.
the whole blame for any deficiencies.
Feared Defeat.
"It wa3 not that the prohibition forces did not see the desirability of enforcement legislation, but that it
was only be the utmost exertion that
they could even secure a vote on any
sort of a bill. It wis feared that inclusion of an amendment would re
sult in its defeat.
"It was the uncompromising attitude of the prohibition party that prevented its accomplishing . anything. The party would not have county or township prohibition, it must be state
wnie or nothing.
"People do-not progress in that way, but step by step. We have to take what we can get, in any reform move
ment, it we are to finally succeed."
MOREHOUSE PARISH OFFICERS BELONG TO KLAN, SAYS WITNESS BASTROP, La., Jan. 9. The sheriff and other officials of Morehouse parish, even members of the grand jury are members of the Ku Klux Klan, J. T. Northworthy, who declared himself a charter member of the parish organization of the klan, declared today on the witne&s stand. Questioned as to w-hy he quit the knan Northworthy said he did not like any part of the activities. Asked about the vigila.nts, he said: "They went around the county and scouted up stuff and reported to us what was going on." "Weren't men ordered to leave their homes, weren't others told to clean up their households?" "Yes sir." "Weren't these orders- executed by the direction ot the president, Capt. Skipwith?" "Yes sir." "Wasn't this all caused by parish officials not enforcing the law?" "Yes sir." "As a, matter of fact the sheriff and other officials of this parish are members of the klan?" "Yes sir." "Even members of the grand jury then in session were members, were they not?" "Yes sir." "I think this investigation has the support of the better element of the Ku Klux Klan," said Mr. Coco. "I would not hesitate to try this case with a jury composed of this class of klan members." "Do you know anything about the kidnapping of Miss Hamilton?" "I do. She was taken from her
home, taken to Mer Ro.uge and put on a train for Little Rockj and told not to come back." "Tell us all about it."' "Well, I don't know, except W. P. Kirkpatricw, a klansm'an, told mo that he gave her money to take the trip. Dr. McKoin said Kirkpatrick was with him. He told me he did not have any money, and I just run my hand down in my pocket and gave It to ier."

COLLEGE EDUCATION
NECESSARY, HATFIELD
"An employer today never asks if you ever graduated from high school,
but he does ask if you have graduated
from college," stated Frank H. Hat
field, governor of Indiana district of
Rotary, in a talk to the students of Morton high school, Tuesday morning. "Stay in school as long as you can," continued Mr. Hatfield. "Any boy who quits school today to obtain a job, gets a job, and that's all. He ends right there, in the majority of cases. It is true that it is difficult to continue in 6chool sometimes, but with a bit of courage and effort, most students can continue and gain an education which will really prove valuable to them. "I know of an employer who was not a college graduate himself, but be always hired college graduates to fill important positions and made such graduates responsible for the same.
