STATE AID STILL DESIRED Amendment, Not Repeal, of Wash ington Law Wanted. OLTMPIA. Wash.. Dec. C Speclal.) Although stories have been published which gave the Impression that the State Good Roads Association Convention went on record against all slat road plans and against the Stat Highway Department. J. C. Lawrence, of the State Railroad Commission, and ex-prealdent of th Good Roads Association. Is optimis tic concerning th good roads movement In Washington. "Farmera are not opposed to state aid and are not In favor of wiping out the Highway Department." he said today. They did go on re-ord against tho pres ent state aid road law. but want another state aid law In Its place. The majority report of the !glalntlve committee want ed the present state aid law amended, and most of their amendments are to be found In the proposed new state aid road law." Mr. Lawrence believes that highways, are exactly like railroads. Over the raile pafs the pa?enger trains, which repre sent about li per cent of the traffic movement, and over the same rails go the freight trains, which represent 5 per cent of the total business of the road. A railroad cannot Ignore either passenger or freight business. Likewise, the builder of roads cannot Ignore either the freight movement represented by the farmer, or the passenger traffic rep resented In a large measure by automobiles.

Hlnka. former dean of St. Michael's Episcopal cathedral In this city, had led him to accept the Christian religion. It Is thought by many that Orchard hopes to secure a parole from Governor-elect Hawley during his term of office, as Hawley was the chief prosecutor at the trial of the officers of the Western Federation of Miners, In which Orch ard appeared as th etar witness for the state.

(Special.) Taking advantage of the new judiciary amendment to article VII, for the first time, 'W. P. Lord. Jr., as attorney for Archie M. Jerman, has asked the Su preme Court to release Louis Martinez and Francesco Roberto on a writ of habeas corpus. Martinez and Roberto were Indicted In the Marion County Circuit Court on four separate counts. They finally pleaded guilty to a single count charging them with larceny, these men being arrested for alleged wholesale operations in shoplifting. It is alleged by Lord that the judg- ( ment falls to show what charge the men were sentenced for and that there Is no limitation of time placed on their sentence. Under these conditions he argues the Superintendent of the Peni tentiary has no way of knowing when these men should be released and he avers that they have been long enough In prison. The papers praying for a writ of habeas corpus have not been filed with the Supreme Court, although the court Is aware of the proceedings. The pa pers will be filed Thursday, as the court desires to Investigate for a day or two into the question of filing fees under the new amendment. It is said that Roberto Is the son of an ex-Governor of a Mexican province and he has every Indication of excel lent breeding. The men were sen tenced to the Penitentiary last October.
