1,063 BUILDING PERMITS APRIL RECORD OF CITY Indianapolis Maintains Fair Standing Compared With Other Cities. With building activities at a high peak all over the country Indianapolis, despite the strike in the building trades, maintained a fair standing among other large cities in number and value of building permits issued during April, according to the monthly tabulation of the American Contractor, published in Chicago. The Indianapolis building department issued 1.063 permits with total valuation of $1,527,647 during April. Ten cities issued more permits and sixteen issued permits of higher valuation than Indianapolis. TEN CITIES OF HIGHER RANK. The cities which ranked above Indianapolis in number of permits issued were Los Angeles, Baltimore, Detroit, Minneapolis, New York, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Seattle and Portland, Ore. Those with higher valuation were Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Washington, D. C., Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit, Minneapolis, St. Paul.

The greatest bui ding activity in Indiana outs'de Indianapolis was shown by South Pend, where 372 permits, valued at $320,833 were issued. Gary beat South Bend on valuation with $600,000, which is second to Indianapolis, but fell behind the St. Joseph County seat in number of permits with only 144 Issued.

In view of existing local conditions the showing made by Indianapolis is considered remarkable by building authorities.

BLAZES TRAIL FOR MEETING OF S. A. ENGINEERS

Hoosier Motor Club Supplies Markers for West Baden Meeting. Special road markers, blazing the trail to tha meeting of the Society of Automotive Engineers, Indiana division, at West Baden, have Just been installed through the agency of the Hoosier Motor Club, according to announcement made at the headquarters of the club, ninth floor, Claypool Hotel. Hundreds of placards reading "S. A. E. West Baden” with an arrow pointing tho way, and signed “Hoosier Motor Club” have been placed along the route from Indianapolis. B. !•'. Ivclley, secretary of the local division of the S. A. E. assisted officials of the Hoosier Motor Club with the arrangements and special cars and drivers were put to work marking the trail. Hundreds of members of the automobile engineering society from the city and other sections of the State are planning overland trips to the spa of America, It Is understood. The annual convention and frolic of this society Is scheduled to begin next Tuesday. The officers of the motor club announce they are making every effort to see that roads leading Into Indianapolis are in good condition for the sneedwsv crowds and in eases where road 9 are blocked are endeavoring to have the detours well marked all the way around. Anew law soon to be in effect requires such detour markings and this was secured through the motor club's efforts. In the meantime, however, the club Is trying to mark principal detours so the speedway traffic will not be delayed. Motorists living in the vicinity of Pendleton, Anderson and MunV'ie are advised to avoid the Pendleton pike route into Indianapolis if possible, according to Harry K. Stormont, director of promotion of the Hoosier Motor Club. “The direct Pendleton route is blocked between Ft. Benjamin Harrison and east of Oaklandon,” said ho today. “The Hoosier. Motor Club has marked a detour around this road, but tha detour is quite rough and In places It is merely a singletrack road. Coming from the Pendleton vicinity it is a much more enjoyable trip if the motorist will drive straight south Into Grenefield and thence into Indianapolis on the National road. There Is a detour on this road between Philadelphia and Cumberland, but it is well marked and is in good traveling condition. While this route is longer the going Is generally smooth Another route out of the Anderson vicinity would be to go into Noblesville and thence into Indianapolis over what is known as the Millersville road Either of these roads is preferable than trying to travel over the Pendleton pike detour.” According to Mr. Stormont a good route, little used, to the speedway, is west on Washington street to the river boulevard. Just beyond the car barns, thence following the boulevard Into Erae rlehsvllle, turning left onto the brick pavement. “Motorists from the Lebanon vicinity and also from the Crawfordsville vicinity, are advised to take the river boulevard at Emerlchsvllle,” says Mr. Stormont. This forms the best and quickest route into Washington street from the Emeriohaville section. The boulevard has recently been graded and dragged and Is really fine to travel on now.” It is stated that Improvements in the roadway at the Emeriohaville bridge Include the abolishment of the dangerous right angle turn off of the bridge into the river road. The turn has now boon

CHARITY BODY GIVES YEARLY WORK REPORT Secretary Says Groceries Chief Causes for Expenditure.

The value of community organization and federation of charity agencies to aid the needy was explained by Sherman C. Kingsley, director of Welfare Federation, Cleveland, Ohio, In his talk on "Organizing the Social Forces of a Community” at ihe semi-annual dinner meeting of the C'jarity Organization Society, at the Hotel Lincoln last night. He described some of the features of the work in Cleveland and told of a recent Community Chest drive there when there had been more than 200,000 subscribers and a rotal donation of approximately $4,500,000. He said in New York City there were about 2,000 agencies, and that in Chicago there have been more than 150 ‘*tag" days in a year. In his review cf the work of the Charity Organization Society for the last six months, Epgene C. Foster, general secretary, said “six months ago at our annual meeting we reported 1,306 families cared for during the year—just prior to November we had been averaging about 250 family situations each month —sickness and insufficient income causing the need in most of these homes. In November we increased to 310; December, 470; January, CB2; February, 742; March, 722, end April, 563, and tonight we have to report 1,620 different families dealt witli during the six months’ period, 316 mere than our entire clientele of the preceding twelve months.” He explained that “in studying these records we find 665 of these problems were unemployment situations, 304 sickness, 173 for investigation, presenting such a combination of causes of distress that they were hard to designate as belonging to any one group—l2s insufficient income, 108 stranded, fifty-six desertion, twenty-five accident, twenty-three imprisonment and 141 with other contributing causes for dependency.” He reported expenditures for the first six months’ period as $28,373 with $7,500 loans. “Our material relief,” he added, "amounted to $15,253, the larger Items as follows: Groceries, $10,359; coal, $1,335; rent, $1,070; transportation, $782; clothing, $54.” „ In speaking of these various expenditures, he said, “for January the grocery bill was $.1,480, only $l2O less than our monthly allowance. "I’m afraid a grocery bill of $3,480 in one month on an income of $3,600 did not look very economical, but when you come to consider these nearly 700 homes and some of them with eight and nine in the family, I do not think any complaint has been made that we were orergenerous.’ There was a brief talk by Elwood Street, director Welfare League, Louisville. Ky. The Rev. George M. Smith offered prayer.
