SAYS DRAINAGE COIN MISPENT Richard Lieber Avers Great Indiana Work Is Unscientific. Special to The Times. WARSAW, Ind., f)ec. 18.—Notwithstanding the apparent success of drainage which has reclaimed more than seventeen million acres and made Indiana one of the three greatest agricultural States in the Union, much of this work has been unscientific, uncorrelated and a great amount of money misspent, afeording to Richard Lieber, director of conservation in Indiana. Mr. Lieber was the principal speaker Friday night before the Rotary Club at a conservation meeting here at which 300 persons representing many sections of the State were present. It was the desire to protect the lakes and retain their water levels, which are threatened from unwise drainage projects, that the Rotary Club planned this meeting. Mr. Lieber said in part : "It is not economically true that any and all drainage is good. Drainage projects have heretofore been treated as purely local affairs. No study tvus made as to the affect on the water table ndjoinIng the district Immediately affected. Lake levels and stream flows were disregarded. "It is not true that all soil when it is drained will be good for farming. Likewise there are often districts which do more good in their present state as lake and swamp lands than they could as farm lands. "W ith the proposed adoption of the State Engineers’ Department under State conservation should come the modern ■(clentl ic and up-to-date drainage and levee law to rpplaee the numerous conf.ictlng and antiquated measures now on our statutes. The citizens of Kosciusko County are intensely interested in this matter because it directly affects their pocketbooks. Drainage petitions now ponding In this county, If granted, will lower the level of many lakes and result In complete ruin to some. Mr. Lieber called attention to the proposed drainage projects In Kosciusko and Marshall Counties, known as the “Matchett and Kriug ditch.” Here it is proposed to straighten and shorten the Tippecanoe river for twenty-two miles, which would reduce the water level ten feet at the county line. The Tippecanoe river Is one of the best in the Middle West for power projects and even now Chicago, eastern and Indiana capitalists propose a hydro-electric project on the river that will Involve the expenditure of millions. The Matchett ditch would seriously interfer with this project, he said. In a plea for saving the northern Indiana sand dunes, Mr. Lieber said tho people of the Middle West and especially Indiana owe it to themselves to call a halt, and set aside for all time to come, as a tribute of days gone by, this wonderful land if for nothing more than providing a social safety valve in a district that needs this precautionary appliance so Imperatively. Industrial expansion will not be interferred with by such a park, but the life of Industry might suffer grievously without the social safety value—the park—he contended. Mr. Lieber proposed that the Legislature set aside $1,000,C00 on the contingency his department raise a like sum toward acquiring a park eight miles fronting the lake and a mile and a half back into the dunes.

GARY MAN CITES PAROLE ABUSE Advocates No Releases in Crimes for Gain. Ppeciii to The Times. GARY, Ind., Dec. IS.—The abolishment * of all forms of prr Jous. paroles and suspended sentences for persons who have | committed violent crimes for gain is beI ing advocated by Frank X. Gavit, a | former member of the Indiana State Senate, and now an attorney in Lake County. Mr. Gavit has made several speeches on the subject and Is advocating legislation to put his plan in effect. In a statement on this subject Mr. i Gavit said : "My conclusions are not drawn from statistics, but from personal observation. The danger to society Is violent crime for gain. This species of crime should be segregated from the general ! mass and treated most severely. The j minimization of this species of crime Is I perfectly simple and is expressed in ! these few words: Keep all who are | convicted of this class of crime confined !in prison for the maximum term; no I pardons, suspended sentences or paroles. In ninety days there will be practically t none at large and society will be pror j tected. "There are comparatively few of these j habitual criminals; each commit success- | ive crimes. The unobserving, therefore, I conclude that thalr numbers are great. I First offenders, so-called, should pay the j penalty. No man who, for purposes of : gain will imperil the life of another, should be allowed to endanger society. | “The present crisis has been reached ; through misplaced sympathy. In the j change from the stern and exacting Jusi tice of the past to the maudlin sympathy j of the present, the pendulum has swung ! entirely to the other extreme. Sympai thy for this class of criminals is milj placed when it Is permitted to go be- | yond reason. Rather- should we sympathize with the victim of yesterday and • more particularly with the victim of to- : morrow who, experience tells us, will bo j ids prey if we turn from our plain duty ;at the behest of misguided men anil | women. i "If a man be held up and robbed and poaslbly murdered, when the culprit is finally apprehended, he is almost certain to be at liberty under parole, pardon or suspended sentence. "Most men have mothers, and these criminals are no exception to the rule. They plead for their son's release, and I the heart of those charged with the proI teetlon of society is thereby swayed, j Close observation, however, impels us to remember that the grief of the mother is too often in the form of sorrow that ho is being punished for his crime rather than sympathy for the victim.” Aged Man Finds Note and Switches on Step Special to The Times. COLUMBUS, Ind., Dee. 18.—A bundle of switches with a threatening note attached to them, wag found on his doorstep by B. F. Clxrk, a Civil War veteran. S6 years of age, IHing at Waymr.nwllie, twelve mils-s south of here. The note | read: “If Link Callam is fined you had I better pay the fine or make yourself -••arce around here. Signed, A Committee of Four Hundred.” Clark recently filed charges of profanity against Callam i | a local Justice of the peace court. The aged man was not intimidated by the threat and brought the note and switches to Fro securing Attorney Carl J. Carter in this city. Man, Up for Slaying, Freed by His Peers Special to The Times. FRANKFORT, Ind., Dec. 18—A JuryIn the Clinton Circuit Court here, after deliberating two hours, returned aver- ! diet of not guilty In the case of Clarence Eskridge, tried for second-degree murder for the killing of Andrew J. Henderson. Eskridge shot and killed Henderson, June 20, 1920, following a quarrel over a line fence. He pleaded self-defense
