LEGION'S HELP In Voting for Amendment No. One is Urged by State Organization REQUEST RECEIVED J Inspectors Getting Supplies Today—Polls Open at Six Tuesday. The inspectors in the thirty-three 1
precincts in the county were calling at the clerk and auditor’s office today receiving the ballots and supplies for the special election to be when the voters of Indiana will vote on the thirteen proposed amendments to the state constitution. The polls will open at six o'clock Tuesday morning and close at six o’clock in the evening, and County Clerk John T. Kelly will receive the official returns at his office on Wednesday, the inspectors making their returns to him. Request is Received All American Legion posts of the state have been urged to support the proposed amendment to the state constitution which would prohibit foreign born persons from voting until they have become fully naturalized under the laws of the United States. It is pointed out that Indiana is only one of four states that do not require voters to have full citizenship and that the election to be held Tuesday is the time-to remove that blemish from the constitution of this great state. The above request was received by Joseph C. Laurent, adjutant of the local post, in the form of a bulletin from department headquarters. The proposed amendment is as follows, Article 11, section 2. In all elections not otherwise provided for by this constitution, every citizen of the United States, of the age of twenty-one years and upwards, who shall have resided in the state during the six months, and in the township sixty days, and in the ward or precinct thirty days immediately preceding such election, shall be entitled to vote in the township or precinct where he or she may reside. —• Quebec has cut its street car accidents 50 per cent.

CARE OF REFUGEES! I In Russia Will Be Big Job ! for League of Nations Which Convenes Soon TASK IS TOO BIG — ; For Individual Government —Commissioner to Be Named (By Henry Wood, United ITess staff correspondent) Geneva —(By Mail) —What to do with the 300,000 to 400,0(10 Russian refugees who are now scattered throughout almost every state in Europe will constitute one of the most complicated problems to be solved by the second general assembly of the League of Nations which convenes hefe on September 5. The question of these Russian refugees has now reached such proportions as an international problem that it has been definitely decided by the European states belonging to the league that it can no longer be handled by individual governments. As a consequence, the problem wil! be taken up by the League of Nations with the cooperation of the International Red Cross Societies and the International Red Cross committee. Extensive information has already been sent in to the League relative to the situation of the Russian refugees in different countries by South Africa, Germany, Belgium, Denmark, Spain, France, Great Britain, Poland, Czechoslovakia and Switzerland. This will serve as a basis for the international action to be formulated. The problem is complicated, involving not only the legal status of these people in the different countries, but political, financial and economic aspects as well. Based upon the information and the various suggested solutions which have been offered by the varous European governments to date, the council has decided that the first st, p to be takefi is that of the appointment of a high commissioner whose task it will be to co-ordinate the work being done not only by all European governments but by all private associations on behalf of the Russian refugees. High Russian representatives have asked the League to appoint, if possible, to this position a Serbian, who, because of the analofy of race and language, will probably be better adapted for inspiring confidence among Russian refugees. Whilst awaiting the appointment of this commissioner, the council has ordered the League's secretariat to convene the officials responsible in each country for the welfare of the Russian refugees to discuss the problem One of the problems to be looked into is the possibility that sums of money and property belonging to the various Russian goverments than have been, seqivastered/ in different countries be constituted into a belief fund for the Russian refugees. Another task will be that cf directing these refugees into various countries where work can be secured for them. In the meantime each government will be asked what amount of money it is now spending on behalf of Russian refugees and how much it may be able to contribute towards the general funds necessary for handling the problem on an international basis and for maintaining the international organization. One of the especial ends that will be recommended to the high commissioner will be that of forming as many of the refugees as possible into colonies in different countries with especial attention being given to the i social and ethical status of those making up each colony. •—— — WRITES UP FAIR “The Horesman,” a magazine devoted to printing news of interest to horsemen, published at Indianapolis, I contains an excellent write-up of the Northern Indiana fair, held here the first week in August.

The delay was caused because of the fact that the full quota of immigrants had been lauded in this country for the month of August, and the authorities would permit no more to enter until September 1. Hence the bout slowed up a bit. The homeward voyage was decidedly rough most of the way, and very few of the party remained on deck. No accidents of any kind marred the trip, but two sisters in the party became 111 of typhoid fever, and are still in Italy. They are improving, however, and will soon be able to come home. ■ COULD HARDLY STRAIGHTEN UP When the kidneys are overworked or disordered and fail to throw out waste matter from the system, it causes aches, pains, lame back, swollen ankles, sore joints, dizziness, floating specks, etc. J.

All That Money Can Buy To be Master of the Highway is glory indeed, but this well-earned distinction does not atone explain the country-wide preference shown for Paige 6-66 models. To start with, there is large economy in the initial price. Furthermore, many attested performances on track and hill have revealed a stamina that is a guarantee of long life and freedom from repair bills. All that a truly fine car should be, it is easily apparent that the Paige 6-66 is by far the greatest dollar-for-dollar value on the market today. Is it any wonder, then, that < discriminating buyers who could well afford to pay $5,000 to $6,000, if they were convinced that supreme » quality compelled it, choose the Paige?
