THE REPUBLICAN administration probably will desire to cancel Europe s war debt now that they have found that Former President Wilson opposed it AMABASSADOR HARVEY says we went to war to save our "skins,” while Ambassador Herrick says ideals prompted us to enter. Tossibly four million ex-service men can decide this ambassadorial debate. Mr. Schmidt's Expose Unquestionably those citizens of Indianapolis who do not like to be disturbed in their ostrich-like attitude toward the unpleasant things that exist in the community will roundly condemn Councilman Gus Schmiat for his expose of insanitary conditions and Dr. H. G. Morgan for bis agreement with him. But, in their frank public discussions of the lack of proper sanitary provisions in Indianapolis, these two gentlemen have done the community a service. And in further agitation of the necessity of cleaning up the city much more can be done for Indianapolis. Mr. Schmidt has called attention to the fact that sanitary conditions in Indianapolis are growing worse instead of better. Mr. Morgan ha3 told of years of effort on the part of sanitarians to make the city cease befouling itself. The discussion of the subject has resolved itself into an effort to shift the responsibility from the shoulders of one department official to another, in a vain effort to avoid the incontrovertible fact that the primary responsibility rests on the shoulders of the mayor, whose duties include the appointment of the officials and the formulation of their rolicles. Sanitation has been sadly neglected in Indianapolis for many years. The present acute situation has been more rapidly developed recently because of the increase In population There has been official failure and neglect—failure to realize the necessity of a definite program of sanitation and neglect of what little program had previously become obvious. During the war such neglect was pardonable. Since the war it i3 criminal. We have, of course, the board of sanitary commissioners, an organization responsible to no one. controlled by the mayor, and possessed of unlimited power of initiative. It is the board that invested flTo.ooo of the people’s money in a defunct garbage plant. It Is the board that let a contract at an increased figure to the bonding company that had originally bonded a contractor who failed to complete his contract. It Is the board that recently attempted to award a contract to a bidder who did not comply with the law’s requirement as to the deposit of a certified check with his bid. When this board was created It was with a view to remedying the insanitary conditions of Indianapolis. Since It has begun to function it has been saddled consecutively with the disposal of garbage, the collection of garbage, and, more recently, the collection of ashes. Carefully am! steadily the sanitary commission has been diverted from the problem of sewage disposal to the ends of politicians, who saw, in the almost unlimited power conferred upon it for the purpose of cleaning up Indianapolis. an opportunity to build political machinery for the further manipulation of our government. Mr. Schmidt was right when he suggested that those responsible for present insanitary conditions fn Indianapolis, from the mayor r-n down, should be asked for their resignations.

Why It Is Hot A Dr. Elliott was arrested in London, England, in the year 1757. for an alleged crime, and his lawyers plead insanity because he taught that the sun Is not a body of fire, "but its light proceeds from a dense and universal aurora which may afford ample light to the inhabitants of the surface of the sun beneath and yet be such a distance aloft as not to annoy them.’’ Fortunately the court refused to consider this a proof of insanity, saying that if an extravagant hypothesis were considered proof of insanity, many perfectly sane astronomers might be stigmatized as madmen. The common sense of the court’s viewpoint suggests possibly an explanation of the recent hot weather may be ventured without necessity of calling the police. Astronomers and weathermen cannot tell why It was so hot. A few of the leading theories are mentioned and the most likely can safely be left to the readers' choice. The sun spots of this year were the greatest in seven jears. They were caused by eruptions of gas, extending from the sun a few hundred thousand miles and, as they were that much nearer the earth, by reason of th awful force of explosion, everything is hotter. Recently an unseen comet almost sideswiped us. The mi3s was scarcely a dozen million miles. The motion through space—the agitation —may have heated everything. Some argue that owing to the great unanimity with which presidential ballots were cast last year, to say nothing of the preceding very cool summer and open w inter, a very hot and dry season was sure to result. Still others urge that Professor Einstein’s upsetting of all solar and planetary equilibrium may partly account for disasters to crops and Intensive heat. It is also asserted that the effect of the mild efforts of the Government to enforce prohibition, is surely the cause of the heat and partly to blame for some draught, but the latter has not been proved as yet. Lost Opportunity! A Paris theater recently sold ten thousand costumes at pubiic outcry, as there appeared to be no further use for them. They were uniforms and clothes of all nations, every manner of life and for big, little and indifferent persons, and had accumulated through a generation. A rare opportunity occured to purchase a cardinal’s robe, a king's outfit or a soldier’s uniform. This seems to solve the riddle as to what becomes of all the smart clothes which appear on the stage for a brief moment and then are seen no more. Discarded, stored away and finally put up at auction is the fate of regal gowns and imperial robes. Who will purchase r Louis XV suit or who cares for a Napoleonic makeup? Perhaps dresses could be purchased at an advantage, for styles are reputed to return in twenty years, but with clothes for men there is no hope. Trousers are worn long, lace is omitted and ruffles have forever departed. What an opportunity at such a sale was presented to acquire a series of uniforms for lodges and societies! Had it been apprised in time this city might have acquired sufficient clothing to equip the garbage men and all the street cleaners with distinctive dress at a small expense. Surely here is room for reflection. It betrays a slowness of the purchasing department of the Indiana metropolis, otherwise very serviceable uniforms could have been acquired at a minimum cost. Then, when any occasion arose to make a parade, an appearance might be put forth worthy of the city and its administration, almost amounting “s a paw*

She Is so stylish." “Helen," reproved her mother, “being stylish is the least of Auntie Belle's virtues. She has many good qualities for which you should admire her more than for that." “Well, that’s what I like about her,” Insisted Helen. “She ha* such * lot of drosses Just spilling over everywhere when she unpacks.” Mrs. Hooper laughed “Well many people like a great deal more clothes than they really need and Auntie Belle Is oue of those persons.

In the eyes of the first woman judge to preaioe over the Indianapolis city conrt, the theft of n pale of men’s trousers valued at *l9 carries a penalty of $1 and costs and thirty days In Jail. That was the judicial opinion of Mias Jessie Levy, who acted as judge pro tem. in a larceny case yesterday afternoon Ben net Booker, a negro, who did reside at 1117 Feiger street, was the recipient of Miss Levy's judicial opinion and as a result is now in jnil. Miss Levy adjusted her hair, looked at the defendant and gave a casual glance around the well-filled courtroom while deciding the fate of the alleged trousers thief. She also listened to Raar Ajamie, IKS Roosevelt avenue, the victim of the theft, who testified: “Booker did gome paper-hanging in mj honse on June 29 and when the work was done and Eoofeer had gone, I found that a pair of my pants belonging to a brand new sls suit was missing.” BROTHER BOOK Est APPEARS IN PANTS. “I few days after T missed them, a friend of mine and I saw Boojter wear ing my pants. “I then told Patrolman Lawrence Dugan about it and be arrested him about July 6.” Miss Levy sat erect when the State closed Its caFe, placed her elbows on the bench, again adjusted her hair and eyed the negro while Booker's attorney pleaded with Her Honor for leniency.

PUSS BOOTS JR.

By David Cor-.-. - Wake up, wake up! we re off again, Over hill and over plain! The Arkmoblls on sea or land Can steel away at onr command. Again the Weathercock awakened little Puss Junior on board Noah’s Ark, where we left him in the last story, you remember. It was tne morning after the circus, and he probably would have slept much later had not the faithful bird, as usual, sung his bit of versa. Yousee, this wonderful Weathercock was Just like an alarm clock. “Where’s the ocean ?” asked Puss, looking out cf the window. “Why, we're traveling on land!” “Os course we are," answered the Weathercock. “Didn't you see the wheels on the bottom of the Ark yesterday?” “So I did,” admitted Puss. "I’d forgotten all about - them.” “Well, how did you like my poetryt, You see, I make up anew verse every morning so as to be sure to wake you up.” "I thin kyou are a great poet,” answered little Puss Junior, smiling until his whiskers curled up at the ends Ilka a cavalryman’s. The Weathercock got very red in the gills. I gues3 that's the only way he could blush, don't you think so? So let the rain or sunshine come. Across the land we'll swiftly hum. We are prepared for rain or shine. For dusty road or foamy brine. ' Hurrah!” shouted the Elephant from down below “Bravo. Sir Chanticleer!” "You'll have to excuse me now,” said Puss Junior to the Weathercock, "for I mnst pull on tny red top boots and brush my whiskers. You don’t have to bother about such things, you know. That’s one advantage In being a Weathercock " After breakfast, as they all sat in tbs cabin. Captain Noah remarked; “I’m getting a trifle worried. Yon see, I can’t tell by the barometer whether the Ark ij) 8 .-:ting or wheeling. Now, that is rather important. If we keep on in this way I ..ball have to get a speedometer. It wouldn’t be very nice to be arrested for breaking the speed laws and be locked up in jail." Mrs Noah turned pate, and the Weathercock shifted about uneasily ou the top of the flagpole. "No, indeed,” he cried, "I don't want to be a jailbird!" "Well, what's the best thing to doF* asked Mrs. Noah. "Count the telegraph poles as we go along,” suggested Earn. "I think there are about thirty to a mile, and see how long it takes to pass them.” "That's a good idea,” said Mr. Jonab. But when they looked out of the porthob • they couldn't find any telegraph poles. And just then, all of a sudden, a pistol shot rang out clear and loud. The Arkmobile came to a sadden stop, and a Toice outside was heard to exclaim: “Where the chauffeur?" Captain Noah rushed up on deck, followed by his family, Mr. Jonah and Puss Junior. "What's the matter?” asked Captain Noah, looking about to find the owner of the voice. "Oh. that's what they all say!" came the’reply. "You know Jolly well what's the matter!" And in the next story you shall hear what happened after that.— Copyright, 1921. (To be continued.)

Wishes Kennels Abolished To the Editor of the Times—ln th* name of all that is human and divine, is there no law or remedy for the inhuman butehery of those poor dumb brutes at that "wonderful medical college ?’’ It should not be a question of “Inspection” or “better conditions,“ bat rather "abolishment” of such practice. Doe* that not come under the head of cruel treatment of the worst sort? Is it possible that we are so immune to pity that a city of this size can git with folded hands and not put a stop to such a practice? I hare heard fron other cities Chat our humane society here is a joke and it certainly looks it. If the saving of my life depends upon the butchery and unbearable suffering of some helpless dumb animal then X would say let me die. I don’t want to prolong my life a few short years at the expense of the torture and untold agouy of some helpless animal. I do not think they were put here for that purpose. So let's do away with the kennels entirely and if need be put the human brutes in their place. They, at least, could talk and tell of their misery and even have the “law" and “humane society” on their side, while it seems the animals have no protection whatever. They claim they never had the sympathy of the Times; why should they? T admire the Times for pounding r.wav at the injustice and cruelty of it all and hope it will continue until the college is well advertised. Please print this. MRS. 0. C.
