the county.

Officials of the Marion County Federation of Women’s Guilds induced Juvenile Court officials to present a recommendation to the commissioners that the unused property be made a detention home as an economy measure. Work on the preceeding was stopped by an injunction filed by some East Side citizens, on the claim that such use would constitute a menace to the neighborhood.

Clarence :>uggs. Twenty-third Ward Republican chairman, believes that the path ahead of the people of the county, stale, and nation is so uncertain that only clear thinking should guide our course. “In such cases.” he asks, is it not wise to remain on ground the past has proven to be firm?
