Apttltlon signed by 20 of the
Sropartjr holders living on Twen
tieth Street between Seventh' and
Klnth avenue wa handed to the
eJtr commission today, protesting
against the estimate of the cost of
: faring the street, and asking that
the matter be carried over until
,'a)eat year. -
'-' The proposed project is one that
has been hanging Are since 1912,
and the paving between the ave
auei named Is regarded as tht
worst In tb city.
Property holders, when the mat
ter was first brought up this year.
protested the proposed asphaltlc
concrete project and the board of
local Improvements changed the
material to brick, which was said
would prove the most satisfactory.
Declaration was made by property
owners that while brick coats more
than asnhaltlc concrete it is the
only material to use, as it lasts
, longer. The ordinance has been
: passed and - the estimate on brick
paving set forth. The property
holders now claim that the price Is
too high.
iThe petition in full follows:
"To the Board of Local Improve
merits. City of Rock Island. Gen
tlemen: "The undersigned property own
ers on Twentieth street between
Seventh and Ninth avenues re
, spectfully call your attention to
the proposed improvement of said
street by paving the same with
brick.
; "From the estimates now prepar
ed for said Improvement it appears
that the cost to the property own
ers will be approximately twelve
($12) dollars per front foot, and
we deem such expense exorbitant
and greatly In excess of the bene
fits to accrue to the abutting prop
erty by reason of said Improve
ment "We respectfully call your atten
tion to the fact that at the present
time, due to post-war influence, the
cost of all elements entering into
the costs of these improvements is
greatly above normal, and we be
lieve that at a later date when
these matters have settled down to
a more equitable basis that the con
' templated improvement can be put
In at a substantial saving to all
parties interested.
"In our Judgment, the pushing of
projects railing for the use at this
time of the material for these im
provements when their production
, is comparatively lower than ever
, before, is a potent fartor in main
taining the excessive costs of all
these elements.
"If the material for tin improve
ment is to be purchased now it
must be done in a short market
and in competition with the bid
ders on the state highway jobs and
many other construction enter
prises which have been held up
Auring the war period.
We would therefore respectful

year, it is said. With such a plan
prepared it was "Said that all im

and thereby account for a more
proper growth of the city.

RALLY FORGES
TO FIGHT REDS
AND RADICALS
White Star Leagie Formed in Roc
Island to Carry On Prop
aganda ( Patriotisau
A new organization formed to
combat the perila of radicalism,
bolshevism and revolution in the
United States is being formed in
Rock Island as part of a national
move. Its simple endeavor is the
spreading of anti-red propaganda.
It will work through the schools,
clubs, factories and other local
bodies. The Kiwanis club and poe-
"EVr u " w.1.
If'"''.
local sponsors.
The league, organized about six
weeks ago through the efforts of
11 newspaper men of the country's
biggest journals, ie to be made na
tional in scope. Charles E. Cake,
managing director of the Chronicle
News Bureau of Chicago, and sec
retary of the league, and George
W. Short, assistant secretary, are
in Rock Island organizing "the
club. After completing the work
of organization in all the larger
cities of Illinois, they vill go into
other states, until they have can
vassed every state in the union.
The campaign in Rock Island IS
to be continued for a period of
some weeks, speakers to be sent
here from the league headquarters
in Chicago, to appear at factories,
schools and community meetings
in behalf of the movement
Not the least feature of the
movement is the emblematic but
ton, bearing the significant words,
"No red without the white and
blue." These buttons can be pro
cured by anyone through the
Chamber of Commerce. They are
to be given out to all children of
the public schools later on. Any
one who wears one allies himself
with loyal American citizenship.
HANS TO
GIVE SUPPORT
AGAINST REDS
National Secretary of White Star
Leagne Gains Promise of Sup
port of Club.
In answer to an appeal from
Charles E. Cake, national secre
tary of the White Star league, the
Kiwanis club of Rock Island prom
ised to give their whole-hearted
support to further the aims of the
new organization in this city, that
decision being made in the weekly
noon meeting of the Kiwanians to
day. r
Precedng his request for aid, Mr.
Cake outlined Xhe organization and
purpose of the league, which is ex
plained elsewhere in this issue.
The speaker is managing director
of the Chronicle News bureau, Chi
cago. He told the Kiwanis mem
bers that the league is composed
entirely of newspaper men. ,
"For." he explained, "the bolshe
vism, sabotism or radicalism move
ment in this country aims its blows
at the capitalistic class, whose
money, they claim, is the chief fac
tor in oppression of the working
classes. They know as everybody
knows that newspaper men are not
wealthy, and in fact are also hard
working people." He made various
interesting and some startling
statements regarding the sentiment
of disfavor with the government,
which the league is pledged to com
bat. The plan of the league is simple
and direct. It proposes to give
school children, the small pins
bearing the insignia and motto of;
tne league, to "aavenise Ameri
canism." These will go into hun
dreds of homes, carrying the mes
sage. "No red without the white
and blue. Government by law."
The only literature of the leagne
consists of two pamphlets, one on
the skeleton outline of the league
and its purpose, and one on the
evils of sabotage.
-The project will require $600,
the approximate cost of the pins,
which will be purchased from Rock
Island firms. Mr. Cake put the
matter of aiding in financing the
league to this extent into the hands
of the Kiwanians. and it was re
ferred to the committee on public
service. The recommendations
and credentials of the visitors
were approved by the club offi
cials. Szekely Speaks.
O.' E. Szekely of the Szekely En
gineering company, -made a short
talk outlining the progress of his
company's business since their ad
vent into Rock Island eight months
ago.
The club members were remind
ed to cooperate with their com
mittee in assisting the Augnstana
college campaign fund next week.
They deferred action on several
i matters, including an invitation to
the club as a body to attend the
community ' conference . dinner
Tuesday, March 30, at noon, in the
Christian church, until the meet
ing next Monday.
Thor Norberg received the at

mostly are), bought all he could, and expressed it to us.
