DOGS ARE LEFT TO DIE OR GET WELL—WOMEN (Continues! From I’age One.) Hundreds of guinea pigs and many rabbits are raised. They probably have as large quarters as are usually provided. One room was quite clean with clover bay in tbe crao-s. Another was filthy nd the rabbits and guinea pigs lay in the offal “A large sheep has a room to itself (one died recently). It had plenty of hay. Blood Is taken from it every day. A table stands In the room on which It is Lid. It Is said to ‘be scared to death when approached.’ "The table scraps from the hospital are used for the dogs: lettuce Is purchased for the rabbits and guinea pigs. Dr. Gateh operates on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.” NO PKT SAFE IN HER PRESENT METHODS. Further investigation into the methods employed by the college to obtain dogs for the surgery is being conducted and has revealed some startling things. From facts already uncovered it can be said that as long as the college maintains its present method of dealing for the dogs it uses, the pet of no man. woman or child, either in Indianapolis or in surrounding cities is safe from capturp and death under the knives of the students. SAY STRAW BEDS NOW PROVIDED. Since the agitation caused by the investigation of the condition of dogs kept It the Indiana School of Medicine on West Michigan street for the purpose of experiments and operations, the caretakers have provided beds of straw for the animals. This fact became known when late yesterday a search warrant was issued by Judge Walter Pritchard in rity court and Mrs. Hazel Hill. 725 North Alabama street, accompanied by Sergeant Gaddis, humane officer, visited the college in search of a valuable brindle bulldog owned by Mrs. Hill, which disappeared a week ago. Before the agitation started by persons interested In the welfare of dumb animals the dogs at the college slept on the cold cement floor in the dog house at the east end of the fourth floor of the college building. JUDGE SAID HIS |MG GONE, TOO. When Mr- Hill appeared at the office 19 Judge Pritchard and secured the Jsareh warrant, the judge remarked: “While you are out there you might keep your eyes open and see If you see my dog ‘Jerry.’ He disappeared three days ago near my home at Park avenue and Thirty-eighth street- My dog is an Airedale. He wore a collar trimmed in brass and on the collar my name was engraved.” While Mrs. Hill failed to find her dog or Judge Pritchard’s dog. still she observed the conditions at the college and noted that the dogs are now furnished straw on which to sleep. The humane society officer who accompanied Mrs. Hill reported that they found “plenty of fresh air, sunlight and bedding for tbe dogs. - ' There was an open-air porch and eight large kennels, in which there were thirty dogs. Os this number all seemed in perfeet physical condition except one, which appeared to be sick and lay in the corner of a kennel.

ANIMAL LOVER COMMENDS TIMES “Indianapolis, Ind., “March 30. 1921. “To the Editor of the Times. "Dear Sir: The evening of March 29 an article and editorial appeared in the Indiana Daily Times relating to the condition of the dogs confined at the Indiana University School of Medicine. The Times is to be heartily commended for the attitude it has taken toward these unfortunate animals and deserves the undivided support of all right-minded citizens. It is simply sickening to know such conditions exist, and it is to be hoped some steps can be taken to remly the deplorable situation. We boast of our civilization, but we are not nearly *o civilized as the so-<-alled savage, the Indian, for he at least was hnmane to his dogs and horses. It Is surely a pity that In this day of progress we must resort to cruelty for scientific purposes. It Is sn undisputed fact that a dog is a man's best friend and should be treated with some consideration. The disclosures made coneernlhg their pitiful condition should be given a thorough Investigation with aut delay and the guilty parties punished the same as in every other conviction of inhuman treatment to dumb animals. Indianapolis is to be congratulated that it has at least one daily paper that takes an active Interest in the defense of such cases, for to my knowledge the Times is the only one that does. A few more such investigations as the Times has made and the situation would soon improve. “A FRIEND OF DUMB. ANIMALS.”

Very Good—But Will They Bring Home the Bacon? Harry R. Via, 23, of Chicago, and Mrs. Mae Ferguson, 45, also of Chicago, entered the office of the Marion County clerk to obtain a marriage license. When Miss Margaret Mahoney, the marriage license clerk, examined the applications she was surprised to see that the prospective groom had been Tory plain in answering gome of the questions. In answer to a question concerning the “present occupation’’ of the groom, Mr. Via answered: “None—teaching last,” “If no occupation, what means has the male contracting party to support a family?” was the next question. Via wrote the following answer: "Personality and willingness to work.”

LAST RITES FOR LATE CARDINAL OBSERVED TODAY (Continued From Page One.) feet were encased in soft purple slippers and at the foot of the bier lay the ceremonial red hat which now will be suspended above the tomb of the dead prelate, there to hang until disintegrated by the hand of time. On either side of the catafalque burned three candles, while a seven-branched candelabrum of sacred significance stood at the head. The pontifical mass of requiem began at 10 o'clock. Long before that hour a throng which numbered thousands surrounded the mourning draped cathedral Into which presently moved the long procession of clergy and hierarchy. The last solemn requiem for the dead cardinal was attended chiefly by the hierarchy and priests of America and the distinguished representatives of municipal. State and national governments, as well as by members of diplomatic corps and their staffs from Washington. The earlier services had been especially set aside for the children of the archdtoese, the men and women of the religious orders and for the laity. Although the seating capacity of the "athedral is great, it would have afforded accommodations for only a small fraction of tbe throng which assembled outside.

BUSINESS MEN OF STATE RALLY TO ARMY’S CALL (Continued From Page One.) My belief is that Immorality is on the decline. “There has been much talk, also, of unemployment. From my observation there have been no great number of calls for help because of poverty caused by unemployment. However, preparations are being made by our organization to handle any emergency that might arise, should the country be stricken with an unemployment wave.” Colonel Stillwell said the Salvation Army was one of the first organizations to be on hand in the recent explosion at Chicago. The army worked hand in hand with the Ked Cross and was the means of bringing relief to hundreds of sufferers from the disaster, she said. In Us social service work the Army has organized eighty-nine social service advisory hoards in eighty counties. These hoards have conducted confidential surv*ys in their respective counties, which have been turned over to the Salvation Army, and will be the basis for relief work. The social service work will consist of work in relief of the pool, the unemployed, the delinquent child, the delinquent mother and illegitimate child. The genernl work of the Salvation Army was told by Commissioner William Peart. Chicago, who is the head of ail departments of the Salvation Army in fifteen States. Herbert N. Jeffrey, Chicago, who is the central territorial director of the 1921 social service program, gave an outline of the duties and responsibilities of the county advisory boards. On them rests the responsibility of the amount of work and aid to be carried on by the Army in the various units, he said. ORGANIZES WORK AMONG PRISONERS. “Through the efforts of the Salvation Army several organizations have been effected in the Indiana State Reformatory and the life of the prisoners there has been appreciably elevated,” Chaplain Rule told the visitors. The Rev. Mr. Rule has been chaplain at the reformatory for the last six years and has witnessed first hand the work of tha army in that institution. “The Saltation Army has organized the ‘Brighter Day League,” which has a membership of COO out of 1,000 prisoners at the institution,” he said. “A training class and prison corps of 150 members has been organized, which spends two hours each Sunday in chapel and class work. “They have been instrumental in the organization of the prison orchestra, which plays Salvation Army songs and music.” Other addresses were given by Hr. Charles T. Wheeler, Chicago, an overseas man, on “On Active Duty,” and B. F. Wilson, Stafe program director, on “The 1921 Service Program In Indiana and a Digest of the County Advisory Board Studies.” Chairman Jackson was to present the budget of the organization during the closing hour of the convention. The delegates took luncheon together in the Hotel Severln Inn.

Germans especially have been planning to encourage this reactionary development from the time Constantine arrived in Athens. If Charles succeeds the German monarchists will have scored an important victory, which will lead directly to an attempt to overthrow the German republic and make a Hoheuzollern ruler of Germany. Militarism then will become rampant in Germany and another European war would become a certainty of the future. Forsyth Released Following Analysis Special to The Times. RICHMOND. Ind., March 31.—Alphis Forsyth, who has been held in the Wayne County jail since March 19, pending an investigation of the circumstances surrounding the death of his wife, Mrs. Ida Forsyth, was released today on his own recognizance, by Judge W. A. Bond, on motion of Prosecutor Paul Beckett. The action followed the report of the chemical analysis of the woman’s body received by Coroner Bond, in which the chemist reported that though arsenic was found in the woman’s spleen, it was not present in such quantities that it would cause death. The coroner stated that since there is not sufficient evidence on which to base a case, his part in the matter was closed The body of Mrs. Forsyth was exhumed at Union City March 22. Her husband, a grocer, was arrested by the police when it was learned that he was about to leave the city. '

FRESH CLASHES ARE REPORTED IN HUNCITIES Police Capture Many Prisoners in Efforts to Suppress Red Uprisings. BERLIN, March 31.—Fresh clashes between communists and German security police were reported from the great Rhineland industrial belt today. The employers throughout all Germany have Issued an ultimatum to the workers to retifrn to work before midnight tbnlght, otherwise they will be dismissed. Announcement was made by the head of the police departmental midnight that the red uprisings were subsiding and that work was being resumed in many districts where the communists had forced the workers to strike. The damage will extend into hundreds of millions of marks. At Leuna alone several million marks damage was done when the security police opened fire with artillery against the industrial plants in which the reds were barriaeded. Vast damage has been done to railroad property, to banks, to postoffices and privale property generally by dynamite explosions.

"Because the State law makes divorce easy and cheap to live in adultery, does that change God's law? Sin Is sin whenever It is. Lustful sensuality is a sin in the face of the Lord. There Is a danger that we are setting up two standards of morals. We let the man off and call it wild oats, but we kick his victim down into the gutter. "FACE LIKE FLINT AGAINST WRONG.” “You have to set your face like flint against wrong. There Is something better than Just going to church, than Just to have your name on the church roll -there is such a thing as walking humbly and earnestly with God. “It is a bad thing to be born with bad blood in your veins. I pity you who have the blood of a harlot in you. you who have gambling blood and the blood of other sins. You will not go to hell because you had a had start, but you will go to hell because of a bad finish. Do not blame your beginning. “Don't blame your environment. Adam had a good start.

If some of the walls of your finest and most palatial residences were torn down you would see some terrible tragedies. I can put | a pig in the parlor and I know which will change the quickest and it will not be the pig. Do not blame your surroundings, Men make their own surroundings. ' “A man may ride In a big automobile and yet not be saved. The trouble with some of us Is that we are not near so ■ good after we have automobiles because we have sold out souls to get It. “The prosperity of the world has killed the spiritual life. That Is not as It should be. I do not think it Is a sin to be rich. I think that I could be good with riches. I wish somebody would try me,’’ the evangelist laughed. The evangelist called upon the people not to blame the church when he said, "Don’t blame the church because the devil can compel you to do wrong. He can only tempt you. He can not make yon sin. When you want the right kind of a life you can get it. Die rather than do the wrong thing. “It is the fear of God that we are losing. I say to my brother, if you want God you will havo to walk humbly and obediently with Him. He is not coming into your heart which is filthy unless you want Him. He will clean it but will not stay unless you want Htm. If you want God’s fatherhood, then come out of your lives of shame. You may stay Just where you are and you may seem to get a little pleasure out of life. If you wait until the bloom has left your cheeks; if you wait until your eyes become dim and your manhood and womanhood ’ gone—all you will have left will y le dregs and burning memories.” “BE CARE At, YOU GAMBI.RKS!” Suddenly pointing his finger at the audience. Gipsy Smith said, ”He carelul you gamblers." Be careful you bridge players. Be careful you whist players. If you break the law in one point you break the whole, so says the scripture. “Gambling will eat the very soul out of you and it will rob you of your mother, home, family and wife. Many a woman has lost her purity through gambling. “It is against God that you sin. Jail or no jail, you have to get right with God first. It doesn’t take God long to still the tempest and bring victory.” In speaking on his text the first book of Samuel and the fifteenth chapter the evangelist said: “God can wipe out a people just as you erase words from a slate. • He can dispense with them who disobey his laws. There is a limit to the patience of the Lord. It is a terrible thing to meet with a disappointed Lord. Unless a man battles successfully with himself iu the privacy of his own life, he will win nowhere. I wonder what He Is writing about you and me? I wonder if He would say, ‘He followed me once, but has turned back.’ I wonder If the Lord would write across the forehaeds of all what' we really are, how many would dare to walk down the streets in the daylight with the truth of what we really are written on our foreheads? 1 am not talking about how we seem.

PAUL, Minn., March 31.—A 25 per cent reduction in rents at the Commodore, newest and largest hotel apartment house here, was considered the forerunner of general rent reductions, but so far few agents have inclined to the cut Agents said rentals would be lower in the summer, but there has been no noticeable change from the high peak up to now.

There is many a man in his grave In the cemetery tonight who would not be there if ii wasn’t for some backslider. “L Is astonishing how religious some people can be with other people's money. Some of you break His laws and then try to blind Him with bribes. God doesn’t take any bribes or graft, God’s wrath strikes your guilty conscience until it blisters. Sin is sin wherever 1‘ is. God doe® not excuse sin in the king, the rich man or the pauper. Do not act the hypocrlle, because God will expose you when you least expect It. “When God tails you to give yourselves up utterly and completely, He means it. He means absolute obedience, not compromise. The trouble with some of us is that we are leading compromise lives.’’ Some members of the audience broke in with applause. Gipsy straightened himself up and said firmly: “I don't want that applause. Applause Is cheap. I am trying to reach your conscience, your very souls.” BLIND STL DENTS ANSWER CALL. When he called for converts many members of the State School for the Blind, who attended the meeting In a body, were led forward and shook hands with the evangelist. “This is a beautiful sight,” he exclaimed. “Let us all pray that these people can see Christ as we see Him. Fray that they will accept Him.” The evangelist asked the members of the blind school If they wanted to sing a song and while the pianist played their selection, they sang “The Touch of His Hand on Mine.” Many of the audience were in tears as the blind students completed the song. Young people’s night will be observed Friday night, but the doors will be thrown open to the public at 7 o’clock that evening. At 2:30 o’clock Sunday afternoon, at the tabernacle, Gipsy Smith will talk to women only and at the same hour a meeting for men will be held at the Roberts Park Church. Among the special delegations pres-nt Inst night, were about one hundred employes of Goodman’s Silk Hosiery Company. n hundred from the Riverside Com munity Church, two hundred each from the Link Beit Company and colored employes of Kingan’s and two h' , lred from the Indiana State School for the Blind.

LOOKS LIKE 6C CASH FARE AND 2C TRANSFER (Continned From Pgr One.) provernents. Mr, Todd told the commission the company must have n large amount of money by May 1 and that It is extremely doubtful whether the com puny will be able to borrow under present conditions. “Don't you contemplate the payment of dividends?" Mr. Ashby asked. DIVIDENDS ARE 11 ELD ESSENTIAL. "Do you think the stockholders are going to furnish this property free to the public?” Mr. Todd demanded. “Yor should not expect to pay dividends because tbe stockholders have no equity in the company," Mr. Ashby said. “The facts are exactly contrary,” Mr. Todd said. “If we shouldn't pay dividends we would have a receiver within thirty days," Ferdinand Winter, counsel for the com pany, said. Dr. Henry Jameson, chairman of the board of directors of the company, was pat on the stand to testify concerning the payment of dividends. He said It was necessary to pay dividends, even if money had to be borrowed to do it, in order to obtain any kind of credit. CONTINUES TO BREA K DOWN TODD TESTIMONY. Strenuous efforts to break down the testimony of Robert I. Todd, president of the street railway company, by Samuel Ashby, corporation counsel for the city of Indtnnapolis, were continued yesterday afternoon. Mr. Asliby contended in reply to Mr. Todd's statement that a large surplus Is necessary to enable the company to borrow money that the commission had no power to grant tiie company an increase that would enable it to obtain such a surplus. Mr. Todd replied that he believed the commission had power to give the company a rnto that would enable It to earn enough to borrow money. Mr. Ashby attacked the testimony of the street railway president to the effect that paving between the tracks and similar work was charged to maintenance rather than to the capital account. Mr. Ashby demanded to know whether, when the company surrenders Its franchise, It will ask for increased rates on the basis of valuation as increased by so-called maintenance. He replied thnt it would not and that the valuation placed on the company Is not nearly so high ns It should be in view of present prices. Mr. Ashby repeatedly intimated thnt the company had unduly inflated its deficit In order to make a showing. He pointed out that Included in the list of proposed expenditures for this year was an item of $41,000 for franchise tax which would not need to be paid should the company elect to surrender its franchise under the new law. Mr. Todd told the commission that the company is buying a large amount of coal because It fears trouble at the mines after April 1.

AUTO STUCK IN MUD, SHANK TO MEETING AFOOT (Continued Dora Page One.) man. Let me tell you what I call a real business man. A business man is a man who earns sl2 a week and supports a wife and five or six children oa (hose wages. Th're are three ways cf gettlug money: Work for It, steal it and have some person give it to you. Prof. Howe never stole a dime in his life. He never did a day's work. Now, how did he get his millions? “Professor Howe said he approved and stood hack of every thing the present mayor had done. The present mayor, this boy Jewett, has spent $23,000,000 during the four years he has held office. I spent $10,000,000 during the time I was mayor, and I had the panic when we had soup lines lor the hungry people of our city, who were unable to obtain employment; we had the flood and we bad the street car strike during that time, and still I spent $16,000,000 less of the people’s money than has Chuck Hole Charley. “I have given the mayor anew name—the Hog Merchant. He keeps his hogs cleaner than ho doe* the streets of Indianapolis. "What about the $10,000,000? I will tell you the mayor has 187 pleasure cars in a garage down there near the city hail. These cars are used by city employes to take their girls out riding, i have often seen automobiles marked ‘city of Indianapolis No, 4 or No. 6’ being used in the evening after working hours “When I was mayor they yelled for me to clean up the town. I said I would start in on the Columbia Club and the T'nlversHy Club and they said that would never do for It would ruin the Republican party organization. They asked me to wait until they could talk with Dick Smith of the Indianapolis News. Then I was told that the News would not yeil any more to have the town cleaned tip if I would not start in on tin- Columbia and University Clubs." He pointed out thnt while the labor condition here is not serlors as It is in Surope, still there are men out of work and these men could be given employment patching the holes in the streets “This hns not been done,” declared Mr. Shank. “There has not been a hole patched. It Is the duty of the mayor to look after the workmen of the city.’’ Mr. Shank later spoke at another meeting at Nineteenth street, near Baltimore avenue. Both meetings 4ere attended by largo crowds. BOOK W ALTER WILL SCI’I’ORT ROBISON. Charles A. Bonkwalter. former mayor of Indianapolis, will return Sunday evening from Florida, where he hns been spending the winter, and early next week will become active in the campaign to nominate Edward J. Robison, the Republican candidate for mayor, it was anounced at ltobison headquarters today. Mr. Bookwnlter will become active In Mr. Robison's behalf, It is said, because he does not < risider Mr. Thomas C Howe. News-Jewett candidate, a loyal Republican. Mr. Bookwalter's friends say that he has never forgotten the fact that Mr Howe was not for the Republican ticket at the time Mr. Bookwalter was a Republican candidate for mayor. The Progressive Ttalo American Republican Club of Indianapolis will elect officers and reorganize for the city elections at a meeting to tie held Sunday afternoon at 202 South Davidson street. Candidates and their platforms will be reviewed. All members were requested to bring friends. Mrs. Olive B. Edwards, who Is seeking the Republican nomination for councilman cf the First district, has been Indorsed by the Women’s Progressive Club. Mrs. Edwards Is making an active campaign and already has made several speeches. Heroic methods were adopted to get a crowd to one of the meetings addresed by Mr. Howe last night, according to a report given wide circulation. The meeting was at 532 Indiana avenue In s room known as “Sixth Ward headquarters.” The room. It was said, is leased in the name of Archie (Joker) Young, who, it has been alleged, operates a gambling Joint a few doors up the avenue. When Mr. Howe drived there was but a corporal's guard In the room. A call was sent out for an audience, and a short time later alleged craps games In the neighborhood, Including one said to have been in Joker Young's place, were closed down and the patrons sent to the Howe meeting.

BIG RALLY STIRS INTEREST HERE Americanization Meeting Saturday Night Rouses Enthusiasm. Final arrangements for the big Americanization meeting at the Gipsy Smith Tabernacle Saturday night and for legion night at “Irene" at the Murat theater Monday night, April 4, were discussed at a meeting of the Marion County executive committee of the American Legion last night. At a finance committee meeting at the Board of Trade at noon today it was suggested that inasmuch as it seems certain that even the large seating capacity of the Gipsy Smith Tabernacle may not be sufficient to seat the great throng, that an overflow meeting be heid in the nortli half of the courthouse yard, to be addressed by Judge Landis and other speakers. This matter will be taken up for further discussion at a meeting of the executive committee of tbe Marion County council, to be held at 5:15 o’clock today at the Chamber of Commerce. The great interest that is being taken by various organizations in the celebra- ■ tion was shown today when it was announced that the Elks Club had donated $25 toward defraying the expenses of the meeting, and were organizing a special parade of Elks to the hall. This parade will be headed by the Indianapolis Military Band. REFORTS INDICATE SUCCESS ASS! BED. From all reports the Americanization meeting promises to be even more successful than had been hoped for by the most optimistic member of the legion. The idea hns been received with the greatest enthusiasm, not only by the patriotic nnd civic organizations of the city, hut by the general public as well. Cliquestionably, the promoters point out, there has been a growing feeling that there is a great need for the rcassertion of the true spirit of America throughout the country, and the meeting Saturday night is being welcomed as an opportunity to show tlie State and country that Indiana; oils is American from one end of the city to the other, 100 per cent plus. While no formal parade has been planned, many legion posts and other organizations will march to the hall as separate units and there will be an informal parade of large size from the Claypool Hotel to the tabernacle Immediately following the Service Club banquet in honor of the speakers of the evening. HRS. LANDIS WILL ACCOMPANY JCDGE. Officers of the Service Club have received a telegram from Judge Ke.nesaw Mountain I.andis, who will make the principal address at the Americanization meeting, saying that not only will he he present at the banquet but Mrs. Landis will be there also.
