63 are Injured!
When Derailed
Cars Overturn
Cne Coach of Crack Missouri Pacific
Train Plunges Into Creek;
Occurs in Kansas.
Ida. Kan.. June 2C. A broken
rail near Durand. Kan., 1 miles west
of here, early Monday sent one car
of the fast Missouri Pacific passenger
train. Southern, crashing into a
creek and overturned two others,
causing injuries to 63. six of whom
! were in a critical condition Monday
' night.
The wreck occurred just as the
train bound from New Orleans to
Kansas City, was passing over the
Owl creek bridge south of Durand
at 4 a. m.. a steel chair car. in which
most of the injured were traveling,
plunged from the bridge and fell 20
feet, the ends wedging between the
creek banks above the water. Two
Pullman cars overturned, and several
hundred feet of track was torn up.
Twenty-six of the more serious
ly injured were rushed here in a
special car and removed to St. Jo
seph hospital.
Those critically injured:
Miss Hazel Hemphill. 20, Trenton,
Mo., skull fracture.

Missouri Pacific officials found a'

Cities Reaching Out
Louisville. Ky., June 23. How he
?ias succeeded in "sweating out" use
less space in apartment ami lencraeiu .
bouses by increasing the number of I
stairways and eliminating long dark
corridors was explained to the Na
tion Association of Real Estate
Hoards bv Andrew J. Thomas, New
York, architect for the Rockefeller
Foundation model housing projects,
for the new Marshall Field model
model housing projects and for the
Metropolitan Life Insurance com-
pany.
Having done this, Mr. Thomas was
able to construct buildings which
covered only 50 to 52 per cent of a1
lot, yet provided larger and better
ventilated rooms and court and gar
den space. He placed much of the
blame for undersirable slum condi
tions on the doorstep of the mortgage
loan business, which advanced money
on undesirable types of dwellings, he
said.
Ben A. Loftis, Cleveland, outlining
the model home campaign which civic
interests have been carrying out to
advance the idea of home ownership,
pointed out that such a campaign can
help emphatically to weed out un
desirable builders and sub-dividers.
His criticism of the steel frame house
being developed by the Russell Sage
Foundation, brought out a protest
that these homes can be erected by
unskilled labor in two hours. Others,
however, urged that such construc
tion would tend to a dull uniformity
in housing.
It is the woman of the family who
buys the home, and not the man, and
the builder of a co-operative apart
ment will do well to install electric
dishwasher cabinets and build the
window sills low enough so that the
housewife can actually look out of
the window. Roy G. Pratt, of Phila
delphia, said. Builders may very
well pay attention to the question of
colored tile in the kitchen and bath
room, too, Mr. Pratt said, to please,
the prospective woman customer. I
to attractive bridle j
courses is what the i
one side, including some orange
trees.
While super-highways and double
decked streets are evidences of what
the automobile is doing to real es
tate, the airplane already has begun
to have its effect on the physical con
figuration of cities and will have its
influence on land values, according
to Stanley L. McMichael, Cleveland,
Ohio.
"Airplanes," he said, "are steadily
extending the boundaries of cities
now from 5, 10, or 15 miles, out to
50 or 75 miles. Distant lands pos
sessing scenic beauty, which are now
practically useless, will be acquired
and developed into fine estates. The
airplane is going to transmute great j practoi

O'Neill, Juno 25. Kidnaped from
bis office early Sunday morning. Dr.
C. H. Lubker, prominent local chiro-
and phjsician, was thrown
into a waiting automobile ly tnree
Richardson county oliicers who then
with their prisoner headed across the
east line of Holt county, twenty
miles east of here, to get beyond the
jurisdiction of the Holt county courts
and possible interference by the phy
sician's friends.
The officers were after Dr. Lubker
for ignoring an order of the district
court at Falls City to pay $S0 month
j ly toward the support of his child-
ren, pending the outcome of a di
! voice suit brought by Mrs. Lubker
in Richardson county. This was the
second attempt to get the doctor
within the jurisdiction of Richardson
county, the first being blocked by
an application a month ago for a
habeas corpus.
Both Dr. and Mrs. Lubker are li
censed chiropractors and Lave been
in practice here for some years.
About a year ago Mrs. Lubker in
stituted suit for divorce at Falls City
and obtained an order that the doc
tor pay ?S0 a month 'for the sup
port of the children pending out
come of the decree. The doctor ap
pealed the order to the supreme court
and the answer date was ret for to
day at Lincoln. In the meantime he
has been under bond to suppport the
children.
Considerable indignation has been
aroused here over the kidnaping. Lo
cal attorneys believe Richardson
county officers exceeded their au
thority and are liable under the

GOVERNOR'S AID SOUGHT
Kenosha. Wis., June 26. Co-operation
of Goernor Zimmerman in re
moving members of Kenosha's city
council was sought today by the
"committee of 1.000," an organiza
tion seeking a change in city gov
ernment. H. K. Bardcn, president of
the council declined to commen on
clains cf the committee that the
civic body had shown "admitted in
competency." The committee asked the gover
nor to meet a delegation Monday at
Madison. Barden said that the re
quest for state troops in Kenosha,
denied several days ago by the gov
ernor and opposed by the commu
te of 1.000 and leaders in the strike
of workers at the Allen A. company,
originated with the city council. It
felt, be said, that the situation at
the time of their equest warranted
such action.
