6ary Women Demand Vice Drive Action Urge Mayor Enlist Aid Os Schricker • Gary, Ind., March 22 — (UP) — IA housewives' committee crusading | to clean up alleged vice and gambj ling in Gary today urged mayor Eugene Swartz to enlist Gov. Henry Schricker in ths campaign, but Swartz rejected the plan as “unnecessary.” About 1,500 women sent a telegram to Swartz in Washington, where he is attending the conference of mayors. Mrs. Ida Saks, one of the groups’ leaders, said the message was sent because the city council gave the women “no satisfaction” when they asked for a progress report on their cleanup demands. » The women petitioned Swartz to get Schricker’s help “for a campaign for permanent law enforcement and protection.” Swartz, however, rejected the request. "I believe we can cope with the situation locally,” he said. "The enforcement campaign is going to be carried on to the best of our ability.” The women marched into the city hall again last night, hut did not stage a demonstration in the council chambers as they did March 7 when they demanded the cleanup in this steel mill center.
