April 16.—District Attorney Clyne of Chicago today was expected to make charges that bolshevik! -were behind the walkout of workers here.

State troops, sent here when rioting broke out Tuesday, continued to control the situation quietly today. So far there has been no trouble. Strikers assembling in small crowds to discuss the situation dispersed on command without argument. Machine guns have been posted at the principal points of the town.

WilEßt IS THE SLUBBERDIGULLION 810 ASKED THIS HOESTIOH? NOT m INDIANAPOLIS THAT’S CERTAIN
How can they do It? , How is it possible for them to sell on such exceptionally terms? This is the question thousands of people used to ask about the Menter Cos. Where is the jobbernowl who will ask such a question today? He is not a Menter customer —you can bet money on that. Menter's terms of credit to all buyers of men’s and women’s clothing are made extremely liberal. Because—Menter believes in the honesty of the people. Abraham Lincoln, the greatest commoner of them ail, once said; “The Lord must love the common people—He made so many of them.” And the people whom Lincoln loved and placed his faith in are just as honest, just as capable and just as trustworthy today as they were in Lincoln’s time. Anyone can sell on credit if they have faith in the people. The Menter idea, however, goes much further. Menter believes in selling clothing on generous terms of payment without charging extra for the credit accommodation. That is why the man or woman who pays $2.00 Down and $2.00 a Week for a thirty dollar garment does not pay one penny more for that garment than the person who lays down S3O in cash. There is only one w’ay that any concern extending generous credit terms can meet the prices of the fellow’ who demands —and gets—spot cash. And that is volume of business. Not just volume or large volume or big volume. But tremendous volume. A volume so gigantic that the ordinary shop-keeper can not possibly conceive its greatness. And that is just where Menter comes in. A mammoth volume of business. Forty-two stores "in 42 cities selling men’s and women’s clothing to tens of thousands of people every month. Forty-two stores in such cities as New York. Brooklyn, Newark, Cleveland, Buffalo, Rochester. Kansas City, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Toledo, Syracuse, Utica, Louisville and other smaller cities. Forty-two stores —With a main office in New York with experienced chief executives keenly alive to the needs of the people whom they serve. With a New York ofiice where the most alert and ablest buyers are over scouring the world's biggest! clothing market for the best values. No wonder Menter’s prices meet the lowest in the city and meet them without any unusual exertion. Then again; what reason can there possibly be why Menter cannot give to every customer in every one of these 42 cities the classiest of stylish garments? Our buyers don't travel to market just once in a while. They are there all the time. Even with the colossal volume of business Menter now does, please bear in mind that Menter would do a much greater volume were it not for this one outstanding fact; A whole lot of people are go timid that they are afraid to visit any store that sells on credit. They seem to think they are asking for a favor—that while Menter trusts thousands of people every week they themselves might not be able to open an account. They don't know and It’s hard to make them believe that they are just as welcome at Menter's a:- if they had a thousand dollars in their clothes. They do not stop to think that it is Menter's business to give credit and that Menter loves the business People come to the Menter store just as they go to any cash store. They walk In, ask to see a suit —choose the suit they want—say to the courteous salesperson—“l'll take this one,"—and that's all there is to it. It's only a matter of a minute for the terms to he arranged—because Menter's idea of terms is the most generous that can be conceived. Now, please don't think for one minute that beenuso Menter sells on generous terms of credit that only ordinary clothes are offered. Thousands of high-salaried people who want only the best are patrons of this friendly store. They find it easy to get the choicest of stylish wearing apparel bv dividing their payments over a period of say three months They get better clothes and are better satisfied, for they don't have to draw money from the bank or save up for weeks to pay all in one lump. They frankly state that by paying a small sum weekly, every two weeks, or monthly as they get. paid, that they hardly miss the money. And are always correctly and stylishly dressed. With a Menter store In this city why should any man or woman, married or single, wait a day longer before buying fashionable Spring clothing? Remember that Menter has clothes to fit all purses. Indies’ suits for instance at $35 up to $125. And men’s suits from S4O up to SBS. All good dependable clothes that Menter stands back •of. Clothes that you will bo proud to wear—clothes that your friends will admire—clothes that will put a satisfied look on your face when you wear them. You who are reading this notice~r>ou want smart Spring clothes. Then why lay down the cash for them when you do not gain anything by so doing? Menter does not charge extra for credit—cash or credit, the prices are exactly the same. So visit Menter for Spring clothes -you are cordially invited. The Menter store is located at 111 South Illinois street. Thiif! door south of Maryland street. Open Saturday night until 9. We gladly open accounts with out-of town customers. Advertisement.

NOTICE TO GAS CONSUMERS There has been no material change in the gas situation during the past 48 hours. A few cars of coal and oil were received yesterday, but not sufficient to improve conditions to any great extent, while embargoes against Indianapolis on our principal coal roads make future prospects more gloomy than they have been heretofore. We have been able to do no more than maintain gas stocks by our system of fair pressure during cooking hours and a fuinimum pressure at other times. A slight change will be made in the hours of better supply so that they will be as follows 5:30 to 7:30 A.M. II A.M. to I P.M. 5 to 7 P.M. The reason for the change in the early period is the request of many workmen for a supply of gas for earlier breakfast. The hours first established by us are those desired by the greatest number of consumers, but since some must have an early breakfast in order to get to work in time, and those who are accustomed to later breakfasts can change to an earlier time during this emergency, it has seemed reasonable to make the change indicated. To gas consumrs who are disappointed because they can not get gas for heating, we are able to report that the railroads are still able to move coke to most of the coal yards of the city. Up to the present time there has been no shortage of fuel for domestic purposes. CITIZENS GAS COMPANY
