State Appropriations Exceed Taxes Expected Rep James Boyle, chairman of the house appropriations committee, estimates that downstate will pay 85 per cent and Cook county 40 per cent of their state taxes this year, This would bring $64,000,000 into the general revenue fund in the next two years. The appropriations for this biennlum were $80,000,000.

Gov. Emmerson saved $13,500,000 of this in eighteen months. If Gov. Homer has maintained the same record the saving on July 1 will be $18,000,000, reducing the expenditure to $66,000, 000. The first six appropriation bill introduced by the administration, initead of showing a saving of $2,500,000 as claimed, actually were $414,000 higher than two years ago.

The claimed saving was made by leaving out the items for bond Interest and retirement, which, of course, also conte out of the taxpayers' pockets.

VILLAGE HEADS POLICE CHIEFS PLANFORFA1R Agree to be Easy on Tour- Not Familiar with Rules Cook county mayors and village presidents with their police chiefs and members of their polite committees gathered at Hotel Sherman, Chicago, last Friday evening and agreed upon the program to extend courtesies to thousands of motorists who will pass through their communities en route to A Century of Progress in Chicago. The meeting wns called by the Suburban Area nml Country ItowiK Association ot Cook county, ani tho attendance was rcpiesontativt.

ot the suburban area within the county. The principal spcakci was Sid ney Gorham, general chairman of the Traffic Control committee of A Century ot Progress, and author of the first automotive control law in Illinois. It was recommended that traffic regulations be so revised for A Century oE Progress period that arrests be -made -iot traffic violations only when some accident results. During discussion of tho traffic conditions by police oiTicials, Mr. Gorham, who is in Springfield much of the time during the session oi tho General Assembly, agreed to take up with Chiei Collins of the county police and Lieut.

Taylor, acting chief of the state police, the matter of the alleged piactice of county and state troopers in bring- ing'in motorists for minor traffic violations. It was suggested that in most municipalities locril officers could handle their own traffic problem and that Acting Chief laylor should be asked to have his men stationed along the state highways at points where there is not adequate patrolmg. They agreed that any local communities which have designs toward making money for petty traffic violations from crowds cnrouto to A Century oi Progress shoujd be discouraged, and if persisted in should be summarily stopped. Chief Freeman ot Evanston po-. lice force outlined the Evanston plan, which was in line with that suggested by Messrs, Gorham and Saunders, and pointed out that Evanston as the experimental police station oi the National Safety Council had tried out every possible method of expediting traffic with safety.

Village President Charles F. Baumrucker of River Forest related the satisfaction in his community as result of a courtesy campaign which contemplated the min- imising of arrests for traffic violations nnd honored tho officers who handled their districts without traffic arrests. Many police chiefs of Cook county in attendance at the meeting met afterward in the same hall to discuss plans for a meeting of Cook county chiefs to prepare for the international convention to be held in Chicago during the exposition.

H. S. Defeats Evanston in Baseball A base on balls, an erroi, ani in the fourth ever the Evanston Frosh-Soph team last Wednesday afternoon on the Evanston diamond. To insure a safe margin, the local boys again coupled two hits in the sixth inning to bring in the third and last run of the game, Waltev Nothdurft was the boy who started things in the fourth 1 by driving in Ray Bauman, who had gained first base on a walk, on a 'hard hit three bagger to deep right field. He came home on Goldenstein's long fly to- center.

Paul Gabriel pitching air tight ball with fourteen- strike-outs to his credit, was never in trouble until the final inning when he walked two of the first three batters. He settled down, however, to fan the next two hitters. "Feels" Ide did the catching. Democrats Smother Banking Bill; Charge Of Dictation is Made Springfield, a big Chicago bank is dictating What state banks shall be allowed- to' tef open, were made on the floor oft the house by Rep. Searle', Republican of 'Rock Island, in.thetfght over the proposedmew banktngilawt As matters stand the btll practically deadi im'committee, unless public pressure forces the members of the house to bring it out for passage.

Rep. Searle tried to force the issue last Thursday and said: "You Democrats have a chance to help your governor carry out his pledges to give the people a new bonking law. Edward J. Barrett is not competent to handle the banking suitation. This bill would take control from him and give it to a board to be riamed by the governor, i "Barrett right now has a secret committee headed by 'Bumps' Cross from the First National Bank Chicago passing on the reopening of state banks.

He got this assistance from Melvin A. Traylor of the First National. iWs Cross is i the same man Travlor sent to Springfield two years ago to set up the books when Barrett became state treasurer. "When the bank moratorium was called, Barrett asked officials of'the seventh federal district in Chicago tp pass on-the state banks, not knowlnr that the southern end I of the, state is in the eighth federal reserve district. Then he told the state banks to Join the federal reserve.

Ittiis would 'have forced them to take their reserve out of the Chicago loop banks and put them in the federal reserve bank. Traylor couldn't stand for that." Vitriolic charges made by Searle against Barrett were not denied by any Democratic speaker. Neither did any Democrat day a kind word for the governor. On almost straight party lines the Democrats voted against the banking bill out of committee. A further fight, however, was hoped for this week with the backing of depositors' committees and the general public.

Evangelical church in Niles Center. Stnora Firanza was born in Brazil fof a Spanish mother. Her father was a German Brazilian whij, converted his wife to the Lutheran faith, Early in her life herjmtther died, leaving 1 the two to for 'themselves. 1 The mother most'walous in instilling her nd ffcith'that she was look! as a'saint by the natives. a child'she was taken Argentina by 'an aunt who brought Her'to the operatic life.

In time-she'developed into a very powerful contralto. Now began a lifejiof'travel, singing in all parts of llurope and before royalty. During her sojourn in Greece she married a Count Ifliemistoclis and retired several years thereafter to private life. After eighteen years of separation from her mother she was reunited with her in Brazil only to have her mother die very shortly thereafter. Her husband embraced the Lutheran faith, then the World war she once more returned to the stage.

Shortly she lost her husband, such happiness as her own home life apparently was not meant for her. Sternet, more heroic work was calling She toured Germany several years trying to forget her sor- 6w, but if it naoT not been for those early' years of training by her sainted mother, she would scarcely have survived. But it was while stranded in her own country that the call of God found her. Since then she has been far inland among; cannibalistic Indian tribes doing inissitogxjr work among Uwm. intends to return in November-to resume her wonderful work.

It is wonderful, only the sense of the amazing sacrifice which a white person must bring to work at the equator amid such savage dangers and such a strenuous life. ed Booth on Highway to Aid Fair Bound Sightseers "How do we get to the World's a question which those along the main highway will have to answer many times this summer can be quickly and conveniently disposed of by pointing down the road to the newly constructed official information station erected by the Century of Progress between the Des Plaines and Cumberland railway depots on the Northwest Highway.

Fpley Dies After Speeding Car Skids at Road Curve One man was fatally injured and another badly hurt in a collision resulting from skidding at the curve on Northwest highway near Grimm's Service station at the east edge of Harrington Monday evening. Patrick Emmet Foley (better known locally as E.

J. Foley), who received the fatal injuries was driv- inr alone eastbound in a light coupe when a car driven by B. L. Grundset of Brookfield accompanied by R. Spohr of Western Springs, careened across the four-lane highway and struck the Foley machine.

The driver of the second car was unhurt but his companion sustained a wrenched back. Both injured men were taken to the Barrington General hospital where Foley died shortly afterward. An inquest into the death of Mr. Foley was held Tuesday afternoon 'by Emil Selten, Cook county deputy coroner, and a verdict of accident was returned by the coroner's jury. H.

W. Grimm and F. F. Van DeVere, two eye witnesses of the accident, Foley's son, Mr. Grundset and Ernest Wessel, attending police officer, testified at the hearing.

Both Grimm and Van DeVere stated that they saw the two cars collide after their attention had been attracted by the screeching of tires skidding on the pavement. Grimm was attending at his service station nearby and Van DeVere was at a point a little more distant on the other side of the North Western railroad tracks. According to the investigation, the Grundset automobile, a large sedan, started to skid just as it was rounding the curve. When the driver attempted to straighten it out, the car apparently swung off onto the shoulder of the driver's right, llhe loose gravel on the shoulder caused the car to skid in the other direction and it careened across the highway swinging half way around and colliding with the left side of the Foley machine. Both cars remined right side up and came to a stop side oy side, just off the shoulder.

The, i FnUy car was demolished by the impact but the Grundset car sustained only minor damages. Mr. Grundset stated that either a stone or some other object on the pavement caused his automobile to swerve as he was making the turn. MT. Foley had worked in the Barrington vicinity for a number of years but had made his home at Rockford the past year.

Three weeks ago he came to Barrington and was employed at the Daniel Woodhead farm. He was born at Rockford January 15, 1871 and was 02 years old at the time of his death. He is survived by his wife, Dorothy, two daughters and three sons, living at Rockford and Glen Ellyn. Funeral services will be held Friday mominp at St. Mary's church, Rockford, and interment will be at St.

Mary's cemetery there. Mr. Grundset and Mr. Spohr are members of the auditing firm of Spohr and Grundset who have audited the books of the village at various times. They had left Western Springs earlier in the evening and were enroute to Barrington when the accident occurred to attend a meeting of the village board that night.

The following men composed the coroner's jury: EHry Frye, J. H. DeBolt, Henry Watkins, Alex Bell, lira Peckham, and George W. Nightingale. NEW SCHOOL HEAD AT MT.PROSPECT R.

W. Damron Chosen Principal for the Next Year After weeks of investigation and interviewing of prospects for the position of Principal of the local public school, the Board of Education selected Mr. R. W. Damron for the coming year at a special meeting of the board Monday evening, May 22.

Mr. Damron comes highly recommended for his personal qualities and qualifications for this task. He has had 17 years teaching experience, most of it as principal of high schools in southern Illinois towns. He has a Bachelor degree in Education and has done considerable work toward his Masters degree. In addition to this high standing and experience in the field of education, Mr.

Damron has coached athletic teams and is interested in the development of organ- iced play among school children of graded school ages, and of school or community teams for competitive play with similar teams in other communities. The new principal expects to move to Mt. Prospect with his wife, who is a graduate of the University of Illinois, and their 18 months old son, about the last of August to (prepare for the next school year. ONEDEAD TWOCRmCALLY HURT ASCARPLUNGES INTO BRIDGE AT WELLER CREEK Coroner's Jury to Meet June 13; Driver May Have Suffered Stroke; Car Completely Demolished Judicial Election Affects Real Estate and Bank Deposits Few people realize how closely their pocketbooks are related to judges of the Circuit and Superior Courts, said William 3. Miller, vice president of the Northern Trust Company, in an address to the Chicago Bar Association Tuesday.

"The selection of honest judges should be the first consideration of every voter if he desires to conserve his property rights," said Mr. Miller. "It is probably true that the savings of most people are invested in homes or real estate of one kind or another. As a rule those are life savings and are supposed to represent complete assurance that the poor-house is not over the hill in the years when earn- in); capacities diminish. "There are others who have preferred the safety and earnings of savings accounts in banks.

Both are entitled to, and should have, the utmost protection for their property rights that can be obtained. It is one of the tragedies of the depression that receivers have had to take in their hands those material evidences of thrift that are represented by real estate and money. "If it could be certain that all of the receivers were beyond the challenge of personal gain--as some of them are--there would not be grave objection to the situation which the economic condition has forced upon the people, but unfortunately politics is in control of a ipart of the Cook County bench, and has entered into many receivership matters. "Receivers appointed by politically controlled judges are by that very fact under a cloud of suspicion. It is perfectly obvious that the resources of a closed bank can be greatly diminished or dissipated, through the manipulations of a jreceixflt-whose interests, are partisan or political.

It is equally true that the owner of property who is fighting to maintain an equity stands to lose more of that equity When his property is being administered by a receiver who is answerable through the appointing judge to grasping politicians." Whitneys Eastern Stable To Be Brought To Arlington Park For the first time in the history of Arlington Park, the powerful main division of Mrs. Payne Whitney's Greentree Stable will be rep'- resented by full strength during the 30 days of racing at the north- side course, commencing on June 26. Tl-ainer William Brennan's request for accommodations for 22 horses was received today by Managing Director Roy Carruthers. Hitherto, members of the chief division of the eastern establishment only were sent to Arlington Park to fill stakes engagements, but this season Trainer Brennan plans to bring his entire stable here some days in advance of the opening in order that the Greentree horses wfill be at their best for the inaumiral events. Last year the pink and black-striped silks were carried at Arlington only by Parry in the Arlington Oaks and the year before Twenty Grand was the single representative, running in the Classic.

Both finished third Heading the Greentree band will be Dynastic and Jungle King, probable candidates for the $35,000 Classic. The former has not been to the post this season, having been delayed by a slight illness in his early training but reports from the East say he is fast rounding to form. This son of and the famous mare, Chacolet, was a fast-finishing and close third in the rich Belmont Futurity last fall after 'having won the Champagne Stakes. He wag one of the several bargain purchases at the Saratoga sales the year previous, Mrs. Whitney paying but $1,000 for him.

Accompanying the stable to Chicago will be Jockey Silvio Coucci, the sensational young Italian rider who made a pleasing impression on local racing fans here last summer when he drove Gusto to victories in the Classic and American Derby and was a contender for riding honors during the Arlington meeting. Taxpayers May Have To Pay $20,000,000, Plus Interest, Anyway Taxpayers have a new source of worry. The supreme court killed the sales tax because dual appropriations are unconstitutional. A similar issue is involved in a suit pending against diversion of gas tax money to pay off the $20,000.000 bond issue for unemployment relief, 95 per cent of which went to Cook county. If this is declared unconstitutional the $20,000,000 principal and about $10,000,000 in interest will go on the general tan- payers.

One of the worst automobile accidents within recent months oc- cured last Sunday on Elmhurst road at the south edge of the Only one car was involved, as the car which was wrecked the only one on that stretch of road at the time, when, due to some cause that cannot 'be determined, the car swerved to the left side of the road and hit the end of the bridge over Wetter Creek, Tfce car was completely wrecked, and the three occupants received serious injury has since been fatal for one of them. The man to whom the accident proved fatal was Richard Randall, of 2837 West Congress street, Chicago. He was the owner and driver of the car, and was accompanied by his brother, Wv. D. Randall of 143 N.

Mason street, Chicago and Edward Stewart of 4326 N. Kostner avenue, Chicago. The three men were on their return to Chicago after having spent the morn- insr at ttie Randall cottage at Pis- tsKee Lake getting ready for the summer season. No Witnesses Close The accident occurred at about 3:30 p. m.

and apparently nobody saw just what happened, at close enough range tp be sure of what caused the accident. driver of a car going north, and at the time about 100 yards south of the Wieller Creek bridge, saw the south bound car suddenly turn across the north-bound lane and crash into the wall at the end of the bridge. The driver of this north-bound car immediately ran to the nearest house, home of H. Cleven at 510 S. Elmhurst road, and asked Mr.

Cleven to call the police, and an ambulance. Within a few minutes the local traffic policeman, George Wittenburg and Dr. A. Wolfarth of the Mt. Prospect General hospital arrived, and after a brief examination the three injured men were taken to the local hospital in the Karstens ambulance.

Victims Skull Fractured The examination hospital. showed all three to be in serums' condition, and after the families of the men were notified they wen removed to hospitals in Chicago. Hie Randall brothers were taken to the West Side hospital and Stewart to the Illinois Masonic hospital. Immediately after the accident and until his removal, Richard Stewart appeared to be the least injured of the three. Later, however, it developed that he was suffering from a skull fracture and internal hemorrhage, from which he died Monday evening.

Stewart also receiv-, ed a skull fracture and bad leg injuries. He was sitting in the seat beside the driver. W. D. dall, who was sitting in the back seat, had his hips dislocated, and his scalp badly cut.

He is in bet: ter condition than Stewart who has not regained consciousness since the accident. 'ithe Coroners jury met Tuesday morning in Chicago and Policeman George Wittenburg was required to attend, but the hearing was postponed till Tuesday, June 13. The doctor who attended Richard Randall before his death suggested the possibility of a tic stroke. The only observer of the accident, the driver of ths. north-bound car, suggested a blowout, which might have caused the car to swing across the road.

An examination of the front tire indicates the possibility of this being the case, although the car hit the bridge wall just inside of the left front wheel and the condition after the accident makes it impossible to be sure of what actually happened. line car was wrecked beyond repair, though the right side and rear are only slightly damaged. The windshield was the only glass to be broken. The steering was broken and the steering column was bent up so that the steering wheel extends through the windshield, from which the glass was entirely broken. The entire front axel was torn from its position, and the left fenders and running board were torn off.

However, the right headlight glass wa not broken, and the only wheel and tire damaged was the left one. R. F. Huecker towed the 'wreck to garage on Central road. A collision occurred in Arlington Heights a very few minutes before the wrecking of the Randall car, when two cars ran together at an intersection.

There were no serious injuries, however. A County Motorcycle Policeman was killed Saturday night in Glenview on Waukegan road at Lake street. Traffic has been heavier recently than for the past few weeks, but passing through the Village have been well behaved, as only two were called before Police Magistrate Tatge during the week for violations.
