RAPS VON MACH Meeting in n.y. ' •. - - ■ Senate Resolution Denounces V ‘Protest’ Gathering as Traitorous. ■dc. Jh;J>rotest against the Von Mach meetings, one of which was held recently in Madison Square Garden, New York, was Talced this morning by the Indiana Senses, when it adopted a concurrent resolution introduced by Senator Joseph M. Ctayens, pledging the support of the Assembly to all patriotic organizations opposing such "stditioue and traitorous” gatherings. The meetings are alleged to be part of a revived German propaganda which professes to protest against the occupation of German territory by French colonial troops.

Building Looks Like Wind Had ■ s Delivered Cars Jumble Being Unscrambled, However, in Time for Auto Show. Despite the beauties of the decorations, now virtually completed, the auto show building at the State fair grounds looks considerably like a cyclone had dumped every known sort of an automobile device on the spacious floor and just naturally proposed to “leave ’em lay,” according to John B. Orman, show manager, who is busy with a score of assistants trying to unscramble a badly scrambled pumble. However, it is declared order is being slowly evolved out of the chaotic appearances and every hour makes a notable improvement in conditions. "We are getting under way in good shape,” said Mr. Orman. “Our exhibits are coming in rapidly and the exhibitors are working diligently to get their own particular spots In some semblance of order. In a short time now we will ba pretty well set as to the influx of displays and the remainder of the time can be devoted to cleaning up. W r e have a big force of porters and by Monday every particle of debris and dust will be eliminated and the motor cars will be looking their prettiest. In short, we are running full steam ahead and on proper schedule for the opening at 7 o'clock Monday night. The Optimist Club, which will officiate at the opening ceremonies, will have to step some if it can show more optimism

than the personnel of this auto show, believe me.” Manager Orman took occasion to denounce the false rumor that $1 admission was to be charged at the show. “I cannot understand how any one could circulate such a report when we haTe spent a lot of money In advertising our admission price as 50 cents, including war tax,” he said. “No other automobile show In any city of consequence has a price as low as the Indianapolis show' admission. "This 50-cent fee will include everything—it’s all under one roof and the most beautiful setting any one in these parts has ever seen. Besides, the special music features will be worth that money. Asa matter of civic pride the people ow T e It to themselves and to the fighting automobile dealers to boost this show by their attendance, and most of all to nail the lie about the admission price. Just tell all your friends it Is only 50 cents, is my advice,” he concluded. Announcement was made that the American Cub, composed of young men, will have a special stunt Tuesday afternoon which prdfcises to show “some speed.” Molloy Is Winner in ‘Reward* Contest Information has been received that William F.
