City, N. Y. Life Bldg., Kansas City, Mo HOME RULE: A strong appeal for “home rule.” as opposed to the theory of "centralized government." was made by Dale J. Crlttenberger. candidate for the democratic nomination for governor, at the ‘ democratic rally at Jasper yesterday. "The fundamental principal of our . Indiana Constitution is 'home rule.' *' said Mr. Crlttenberger. "And I am a believer in 'home rule' iu its broadest sense. I know that towns, townships, cities and counties can be best and; most economically served by local | school and civil governments. The! people in these units pay the taxes. They should have the absolute light i to say how these moneys should be ex-; pended. Give back 'home rule.' and there will be retrenchment and re * — form iu expenditures. Reduce expenses and you will reduce our back-1 breaking taxes. Less government and less taxes are the taxpayers' only salvation from the intolerable conditions! brought on the people by ill-advised legislation. "Without 'home rule.' extravagance, waste, deahonesty and ineMcient ad-• ministrations erm » in and often rob* the taxpayers—ar.d take from them also all sense of <a*mtnunity response I bility. Buch a policy is wholly wrong, and was neither contemplated or approved by the framers of our state constitution and government.” After deliberating (or twenty-eight hours, and taking thirty five ballots, the McCray jury Friday reported that it would be impossible to agree on a verdict, and was discharged by Judge Chamberlin. On of the votes taken there was a majority in favor of conviction, in uno'case, it is raid, the vote being 11 to L The state was unable to convince twelve mon beyond a reasonable doubt that Governor McCray was a tWcf and embesaler. Neither was it possible to convince a majority of the jury of the defendant's innocence. So there la neither conviction nor acquittal. While each indecisive results are always to lx- regretted, they can not al ways Im- molded, especially under our Indiunu system which makes the jury Judge of the law as well an of >he tact The qurstioa will come into every nm 's mind a.» to whvthur a jury eyet<*m that enables one man to out vote eleven la perfect.

Face to Face . :■ With — Charles Schwab The World's Greatest Salesman and I Business Personality i i (By Joe Mitchell Chapple) I I When a lad Charles M. Schwab 1 drove mules on a stage coach for the ' Carnegie Steel Company, aud he 1 played the piano for Andrew- Carneige at dusk after one hard day's work. He won the heart of the steel master (or he could play not only the piano and organ, but he knew jirel how to play on the feelings to make one beam with good-nature. Charles Schwab knew that the Iron Master did not smoke: knew that he disliked cmokers, so he did not smoke, not eveq a tiny cigarette, in his presence. Moreover, he had become conversant with matters all over the plant: had a memory for every detail, but above all, Charles Schwab knew the men — 1 the watchman, the puddler. the fore- \ man—they all liked him. What Charles Schwab did before the war would have constituted an eminent career, and would have entitled him to a place in the list of America’s "Famous Men," but what he did during the war won him enduring honors as a patriot. He was dlrgctor-general of the shipbuilding of the U. S. Emergency Fleet CorIteration and "stood by" to see a new ship launched everyday—when every minute counted. After the Preaident hail assigned i him the job to build ships, his first I -top was Philadelphia. Ha det ided I that here was the logical plane for I headquarters, w here material and I men could be quickest mobilized. He 'entered a large office building and [ask -d the jaiutor to take him to the • landlord. "How much r.ntal for your entire i huildtngY' "I have contracts ami lease*; I can not consider any proposition. "I've decided that we must have {this building. Uncle Sami's interests I come first. You can move the tenants for we must move in quickly," the said with a smile. I Schwab is a man of action —he got the building. "I must have two million dollars.” he skid to a New York banker one day as simply as if he was asking for a glass of water. "That's a lot of money and I don’t (think we can arrange it.
