'Hie Sewer Experts. The people of Muncie have probably noticed the frantic efforts that are being made to rush the city administration into taking some definite action in regard to the proposed intercepting sewer and disposal plant. The latest demonstration is a letter from the state board of health addressed to city officials demanding that the work be started immediately. The sending of the letter, it is declared, was prompted by “press dispatches” from Muncie. These “press dispatches,” sent out from the camp of those who were defeated in the recent election may serve as a stimulus to stampede the state board of health, but the present administration, knowing their purpose, is not being rushed off its

feet.

The letter states, among other things, that “this matter has been delayed from time to time due to local circumstances but it should not be realized that the matter should not be allowed to drift any longer.” In other words the “matter” has been allowed to “drift” down White river under various republican administrations, but the state ccard of health reserves its threats for & democratic admink n ation that has been in office less than a month. “The state board of health is charged by law,” the letter goes on to say, “with cooperating with local authorities to the end that that unsatisfactory stream conditions may be remedied. “It is further charged with ordering abatement of such conditions where cooperative measures appear to be of no avail. At this time I wish to point out the necessity for immediate action on the part of the city of Muncie toward correcting these unhealthful conditions.” The letter was signed by William F. King, M. D., secretary of the state board of health. This letter was immediately picked up by the local daily newspapers and made the subject of misleading- articles tending to show that the mayor of the city is merely the bound boy at a shucking match who is supposed to cower in fear and trembling every time some republican office holder at Indianapolis chooses to give orders. The mayor called at the office of the state board of health at Indianapolis Tuesday and asked an explanation. The consulting engineer of the board was asked if the Kitselman wire mill and the Kuhner packing company and others polluting White river had been served with similar letters. The response was in the negative, but, said he, “the correction of these matters should be included in the project of constructing the sewer.” He said the Kits^hnan outflow, which discolors the stream and pollutes the water, would not enter the proposed sanitary sewer, since the sediment could not properly be treated at the disposal plant. It was then suggested that it would be highly improper for the city to go to the expense of a million and a half or so to purify and beautify White river only to find itself at the end of this immense outlay confronted with the same old rusty river, and the same old condition that destroys fish life a»d renders boating and bathing impossible. The engineer said the wire mill would have to treat its own outflow s'o that it would enter the river pure and devoid of the coloring matter. Inasmuch as the state board of health has made no effort to have this done in advance of the sewer project, the mayor is of the opinion that as far as he is concerned, at least, there will be no sewer until the state board of health has demonstrated that it is possible for local institutions whose sewage affects the river adversely to clean up before any steps are taken. It is apparent that the state board of health has been listening to the gang here that wants to turn Muncie over to the clutches of a “sanitary commission.^ The mayor of Muncie is eternally and everlastingly opposed to the sanitary district idea. It would place the matter of sewage entirely out of t^he hands of all departments of the city administration and give the state board of health and its republican friends who were kicked out of office here the sole right to construct and look after the operation of all sewers in the city of Muncie. The people here said that they were tired of the Unity League crowd. They kicked them out on the fifth day of November and told them that they had had enough of them. They said, in effect, “We don’t want you to build our sewers; we don’t want you to pave our streets; we don’t want any more of your second hand trucks and we are tired of your paving trust arid your protected gambling halls and blind tigers.” But the gapgsters want to build that sewer in spite of the edict of the people. The mayor is sternly opposed to the initiation of any great expenditure at this time. Bond issues for million dollar sewers, airports, extra librairies and glorified dog pounds might be all right in times of peace and plenty, but with thousands of people out of work and women and children going hungry it is a poor time to even talk about these things. Local daily newspapers have misrepresented this sewer matter shamefully. The Press thinks the matter of constructing this great sewer should be entrusted to men with good business ideas, meaning by that the outfit who suffered so severely at the polls after their crookedness had been so thoroughly exposed by this newspaper, and that those elected by the people could not be trusted.). The Star says “Mayor Dale has voiced the opinion that the sewer should be built by the board of works under the Barret law assessment plan, which would free corporations and all individuals not owning real estate of any of the cost of the gigantic undertaking.” -Mayor Dale never voiced any such opinion. He said in the campaign, after listening to such great engineering experts as Frank Budd and George Cromer tell how to build a sewer when neither one of them could tell a sewer from a hollow log, that he would not dig the ditch ’till he came to it. The mayor has not yet come to the ditch and all the ballyhoo in the world coming from the noisy bunch whose “press dispatches” started Dr. King’s famous letter on its way will not cause him to lose a minute’s sleep,, or sway him a hair’s breadth from his clearly charted line of duty. We beleive if it were put to a vote here the sewer project, either the district or board of works plan, would be defeated ten to one. The people here have waded in physical and moral filth for years and they are willing to hold their noses and wade for some tune yet rather than surrender their rights and substance to the buccaneers whose mouths are watering to

get a chance at a juicy contract and a lot of fancy jobs at $300 a month. The mayor of Muncie feels it his duty to stand between the people and their despoilers. He is opposed to the construction of the sewer at this time. If it is ever built, the work should be done by the city—not by a grant from one of the departments of Indiana’s malodorous republican state administration.

Ottawa, 111., Jan. 31.—(UP)— The Rev. James A. Wilson, 60, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church at Mendota, 111., was in jail today accused of wounding two of his parishioners. He is charged with attempted murder. "Mr. and Mrs. Amos Elliott, who were shot by the pastor, were reported out of danger at the hospital in Mendota. Wilson, who attempted to commit suicide after the shooting, but only wounded himself, blamed his plight on infatuation for Mrs. John Wagner, 50, whom he met at her husband’s funeral two years ago. Wilson, who is married, wrote Mrs. Wagner a letter asking forgiveness for his attentions to her and she turned the letter over to the Elliotts. They revealed the contents according to nis story. The minister went to Elliott and got the letter, but during an argument he shot Elliott through the chest and Mrs. Elliott in the throat. R. O. Hanson, state’s attorney, said Mrs. Wagner was prepared to aid in prosecution of Wilson. Hanson denied reports the Elliotts might refuse to testify. — o —■ THE COMING WEEK THE RIVCLI OFFERS “CHASING RAiNBOWS”, “THE PAINTED ANGEL” AND “THE KIBITZER”

Leading Screen St^rs Appearing During the Week in Thre Outstanding Picture Hits No stage on earth could put on such a show as Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer has brought together in “Chasing Rainbows” a new musical comedy-drama, which opens Sunday at the Rivoli Theatre for a two day engagement, featuring Bessie Love and Charles King, the stars of “Broadway Melody.” This gripping picturization of theatrical, life takes you behind the footlights as well as before them, bringing before your eyes dazzling spectacles of beauty. Charles King and Bessie Love are brought together again in the feature, which was directed by Charles F. (Chuck) Riesner, who recently filmed the “Hollywood Revue of 1929.” In the cast are such favorites as Jack Benny, Marie Dressier, Polly Moran, Gwen Lee, George K. Arthur, Nita Martan, Eddie Phillips and Youcca Troubetskoy. Sammy Lee, who staged the spectacular dancing ensembles, filmed in technicolor, has created living pictures of pulchritude and color that supply a contrasting background for the drabness of the scenes backstage where joys, sorrows, tragedies and romance are intertwined. Three days starting next Tuesday afternoon Billie Dove will be seen and heard in her first all talking, singing and dancing picture, “The Painted Angel” with Edmund Lowe of “The Cock-Eyed World” as leading man. It is a story of night club life in New York City, with all its gayness, thrills, love and sadness, that is woven around ‘‘Billie” in this new story. Next Friday and Saturday “The Kibitzer” the funniest picture hit of the year will be seen and heard, with Harry Green, Mary Brian, Neil Hamilton and a large supporting cast of players. — "-"O—— 1 ■ ■■

No one under 23 makes any pretense of liking it. Everyone opposing spinach had, as a chief objection, the fact that it was urged upon him as being healthful, beyond that there was no excuse ever given for its being class-d as an edible. . Having to. eat spinach, was like taking disagreeable medicine—and the taste remaifiing after a mouthful was fuzzy—or at least a wooly

Farmers’ Body Buys Wheat In Price Dip

Chicago, Jan. 31.—The Farmers’ National Grain Corporation stepped into several principal markets yesterday and purchased wheat at the Federal farm board’s loan value. Wheat futures prices slipped down to new bottom marks for the season at Chicago and carried corn, also, to low records. The downturn here came after an early small gain based on a smaller official Argentine crop estimate than was anticipated. The close was 2 to 2 1-8 cents a bushel lower than Wednesday with March' wheat at $1.15 1-2; May, $1.20 [email protected] 1-2; July, $1.22 1-2® 1.22 3-8, and September, $1.24 1-2. Corn varied from one-fourth cent loss to one-fourth cent gain and rye slumped as much as 4 3-8 cents a bushel. The foremost bearish factor in the lute trading was the report that Russia is exporting wheat from Baltic and Black sea ports.

TO THE PUBLIC: Legal notice it’ being given that at the dose of business February 28, 1930, operation of the Muncie-Union City interurban line of the Union Traction Company of Indiana, will be discontinued under authority of the Public Service Commission of Indiana and the Madison Circuit Court. That line has been a factor of importance in the social and business life of the communities it serves for a quarter of a century, and-it is with regret and reluctance that the. decision to terminate has been reached. That determination has been forced by conditions beyond the control of the Traction Company. In addition to the losses caused all rail transportation lines by the constantly increasing use of automobiles the Muncie-Union City line has suffered seriously from the abandonment, December 31, 1925, of the connecting interurban railway between Union City and Dayton, with which for many years it interchanged a considerable volume ,pf business, The large deficits due to these causes it has proved impossible to overcome through fare revisions, improved service,’ or other means. Advantage is taken in this announcement to thank the public for past patronage and to express appreciation for the co-operation extended to the efforts to put the line on a self-sustaining basis. Union Traction Co. of Indiana ARTHUR W. BRADY, Receiver. January 23, 1930.
