WARNS WOMEN CTVIL RIGHTS INJEOPARDY Albert J. Beveridge Addresses Wayne County Audience on Primaries. —— IS FOR DIRECT METHOD Bpec!al to The Times. RICHMOND, Ind., Jan. 28.—Sounding the warning that the women of Indiana, as well as the women of the Nation, are face to face with a fight to "save from destruction the civil rights they now enjoy,” Albert J. Beveridge of Indianapolis, former Republican Senator from Indiana, addressed a meeting of Republican women of Wayne County here this afternoon. "The proposed abolition of the direct nominating primary and restoration of the abandoned indirect nominating convention means that women, as a class, shall have no voice in naming the candidates of their party, but that, instead, the expert ‘practical’ politicians who manipulate conventions will choose party candidates,” Mr. Beveridge said. "So far as women are concerned, the whole question comes down to this: Do they want to help nnme their party candidates —a right which is now theirs and which, for the first time in Indiana, they ! can exercise at the next primary: or do they prefer to surrender that right and let their party candidates be named by | manipulated conventions? That is all there Is to It, practically from the woman’s point of view. "Indiana women have won their fight now; your task from now on it to safeguard your victory. WARNS AGAINST GETTING VP. "Let the voters of all parties in Indiana, and especially the women, get it firmly and clearly in their minds that, Ja this matter of the primary, they are Wot safe until the Legislature adjourns sine die. Bo carefully planned a movement as this, nation-wide In extent, backed by powerful and non-public forces, will not be overcome quickly or easily. "That is made plain by the fact’that this assault on the people's primary is made at all. That assault Is one of the most audacious events in political history. Why is It made? Who asked for it? The people? No! Everybody knows that the overwhelming majority of the voters of all parties want to keep the people's primaries and oppose the politicians’ conventions —if the politicians deny this, let the question be referred to the people at the ballot box; the answer would be at least ten to one for the primary and against the convention. "Undoubtedly there are good men, honorable and able nen, who prefer the convention to the primary. I respect the opinion and esteem the motive of such men; I simply do not agree with them. The truth is that these excellent gentlemen do not believe that the people are capable of choosing their own represent- ' atives to run their own government—in private conversation they frankly say so. WHAT THE GOOD MEN* WILL ADMIT. "But these good men of spotless repute will admit that they are accompanied by less creditable characters in their'apposition to the direct, open and honest nominating primary. They will admit that every professional lobbyist is also tgalnst the people’s primary. They wilt ~FDB LUMBAGO Try Musterole.

admit that every party manipulator is also against the people's primary. They will admit that every unsavory ‘practical* politician is also against the people’s primary. Tney will admit that all the corrupt forces In American life that formerly used these men to control conventions, Legislatures and Congresses, are also against the people's primary. "Those who persist in their efforts to destroy the primary assert that we who defend it are actuated by personal ambition —an ancient trick of the thwarted legislative manipulator. You women know how false that charge is as concerns yourselves; it is equally false as concerns us who are fighting by your side. Personally, I am willing at any time, publicly, to pledge myself to refrain from public service forever, if that pledge shall become necessary to save the primary—and I am sure that every person who, on principle, is waging this battle for human rights, feels the same way. This is a fair and a sincere offer — it is now up to the little clique which has decreed the death of the primary and, in desperation, has put out these mean and mendacious insinuations—lt is now lip to this little clique to accept this challenge or cease to practice such nefarious methods.’’ Mr. Beveridge, before the church brotherhoods of Richmond last night made an address on "The Bible as Good Reading." Whoever owing allegiance to the United States levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort, is guilty of treason.

The first law that God gave to man was the law of obedience; it was a commandment, and that law put man in the proper official relationship with life, for from obedience springs all other worthy virtues. No man doth safely rule but he that hath learned to obey. In my twenty-three years In handling my peculiar kind of business I have found It universally advantageous for me to be obedient to the wishes of, as well as the best Interests of the people who patronize my sale. As I look back across the gulf of years that I have been serving the people of Indianapolis, I am thankful that I have never strayed away from my contending devotion of appreciation for the generous patronage and universal good will with which the people of Indianapolis have always most spontaneously overwhelmed me.

RETRACTION AND APOLOGY To the Buying Public: On various dates subsequent to December 27th, 1920, there appeared in newspapers located in cities where the Newark Shoe Store Cos. does business, advertisements announcing fire sales based upon fires which occurred in \\ ilmington, Delaware, and Baltimore, Maryland. The facts upon which this copy was based were not called to the attention of the undersigned until Thursday, January 13th, 1921, when the matter was called to my attention by the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World. The biggest asset of the Newark Shoe Stores Cos. is the confidence of the buying public which it has gained and held through the years, and under no circumstances will we knowingly permit that confidence to be destroyed or in any respect impaired. It has been our practice to deal fairly with the public and we propose that that practice shall continue. While it is true that fires occurred in both our Baltimore and Wilmington stores, neither the fires nor the size of th 6 stocks involved would warrant this company in conducting fire sales in all of its stores, as the entire sioek in these two stores, if distributed proportionately among all of our stores, would be entirely too insignificant to give any sale the title of a fire sale. The buying public who purchased goods at these sales received Newark Quality at Newark Prices. Though we feel that perhaps the public has suffered no financial loss, nevertheless, in line with our policy of never deceiving the public or inducing them to buy on any catch phrase, we offer without restriction to refund the purchase price to any of our customers who are in any way dissatisfied with their purchase made at that sale. The fire sales have, of course, been discontinued and we desire again to emphasize the fact that we think more of our reputation with the buying public than we do of money they leave on our counters. We welcome any suggestion that wduld aid us in safeguarding the public who deal with us. We believe in fair competition, in truthful advertising, and above all wc believe in square dealing with our public. We appreciate keenly the action of the Associated Advertising Clubs in bringing this matter to our attention as we will also appreciate the action any individual anywhere at any time bringing to our attention anything which will aid and assist us in further protecting what, as I have said before, is our biggest asset—the confidence of the buying public, which, in plain English, means what the public thinks of us. \V e are very jealous of our reputation and will go to any extreme to protect it.

HEELS LOWER, BROWS HIGHER Wellesley Freshmen Girls Average Only 1.01 Inch. WELLESLEY, Mass.. Jan. 28.—“ The higher the education the higher the heels.” Who said this? It isn't *rne at Wellesley College, and the girls have gone to no little pains to prove it. The average height of the heels worn by 370 freshmen is 1.01 inch, which is even lower than the maximum advised by the college departmentof hygiene. Miss Margaret W. Haddock of Cornell, Wls., president of the Student Government Association, worked fast when she U"ard the statement quoted above, for if there is anything the Wellesley girl prides herself on it is the fact that she has a good share of common sense as well as an eye for the styles. So, Miss Haddock went to her fellow seniors who rule the freshmen living In the village houses because of the dormitory shortage on the campus. The order went out to apply the tape measure to every freshman heel. So the heels were rounded up, 376 pairs of them, in ten of the vUlage houses. In none of the honses did the average exceed an inch and a quarter. At one the average went as low as .78 inch. The student point of view, while agreeing with the scientific reasons given by the department of hygiene, is a little different. Wellesley has a big campus. The
