Chicago, April 19. Marshall M. Kirk man, former 'lce-presldent of the Chi cago & Northwestern railroad and au thor of numerous books on railroading-, died here Monday after a recurring stroke of apoplexy, aged 79. jockeying on the the wrong side or without a driver's with dirty or im vacant machine, bridges, driving on the street, driving license and driving Drooer license tags. The crusade by the police was In the nature of a delivery driver clean-up, with orders from Mayor Baker to put a stop to the carelessness of drivers who are frequently involved In accidents and whose driving endangers - pedestrians and drivers of automobiles who respect the law. The crusade will continue, ac cording to Lieutenant Erwin, until the delivery drivers learn that they must respect the city traffic rules m spite of their plea that they have to hurry. MOST Oi"FE5IJEI8 IOCJO Most of " the drivers arrested were boys under 18 years of age. The boys have' been accustomed, it is said, to disobeying the traffic rules and taking advantage of many opportunities to "slip one over" on ;the police. Monday the entire speed cop force was mobil ized to hail the drivers, who declared in amazement that : they had been driv ing like that for years and had never been stopped before. "That's just the trouble. Because our men have been . busy on regular beats you have been able to get away with it. But from now on ; you drive right or you don't drive, was the way Krwln put it. Hops Must Wait for Permanent Tariff, Declares Penrose Washington,- April 19. (WASHING TON BUKEA0 OK THK JOUIiNAL.) "Hops and sunflower seed can come in on the permanent tariff bill," says Sen ator Boies Penrose; discussing the plans to enact;, the Fordney emergency tariff biTTfearly If the extra session of con gress. Hesid it will be impossible to exjtend the emergency bill .beyond the inclusion of anti-dumping and Amer ican valuation provisions. The hop growers of Oregon and Cali fornia have been : especially persistent in urging their case upon the senators of these states, lasserting that they should by alt means be included In any emergency measure that is intended to - protect the Western agricultural inter- efits. .. By linking hops with sunflower seed Mr. Penrose probably intended a little joke, but the movement for a tariff on sunflower seed is nevertheless serious. Senator Capper of Kansas offered an amendment to protect sunflower seed when the bill was before the senate at the regular session, but -it was voted down. Mr. Penrose indicated that the reve nue law, if his views , prevail, will abol ish the excess profits tax and will re duce the tax on incomes "all along the line," but that treasury and committee experts will have great weight in the decision as to where the point of col lection shall be fixed, so the taxpayer "will not be. robbed of all Initiative and incentive," sis Mr Penrose puts it.
