DEBS’ CASE TO BE CONSIDERED FIRST, BELIEF

Signing of Peace Brings 145 War Offenders Before Administration.

Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON. Nov. 18.—Consideration of appeals for the case of 145 war offenders now in Federal prisons is now before the Administration as a result of the President's peace proclamation. It Is Indicated the vase of Eugene V. Debs.i Imprisoned at Atlanta, would be taken up first, because he was a rival candidate of President Harding's last November. The President's decision is expected soon. Attorney General Daugherty says he has prepared an opinion on the Debs case, but no intimations are forthcoming as to his recommendations. The understanding here has been that the Administration probably will release Debs, although few were prepared to predict whether that action would take the form of commutation of sentence or full pardon with restoration of all civil rights. The Attorney General’s opinion will be sent to the White House after Mr. Daugherty makes a few changes in phraseology. It will deal only with the Debs case. Pickets pace back and forth in front of the halls where the sessions of the conference on limitation of armament are meeting. They are there to nrge the release of the prisoners. Three of them are ex-service men and eight women. They say they represent the American Civil Liberties l~nlon.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

MEN AND BUSINESS By RICHARD SPILLANE

Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. ON THE HOAD. Nov. 18. IN LMOST jvery city of America earnest gentlemen t connected with civic organizations present multicolored maps showing how their town is the gate to this or that section of the globe of the hub of business and transportation for a vast territory. When a town isn't a hub or a gate it is a great convention city or the metropolis of the East, West, North or South or is on its way to that proud position. In some of the gate cities the visitor is inclined to look if the gate is open or there is a gap in the fence by which he may get out. These maps are fully as dependable as those of railroads which show the road on which you are traveling runs straight from city to city although at the time you are looking at the map the engineer, in rounding a curve, may be able to shake hands with the rear brakeman. Some municipality can achieve distinction by claiming to be the cleanest city or of having traffic regulations that regulate and. furthermore, proving the claim is warranted. Hubs and gates are becoming common if not meaningless. It’s time for something new. * * * ON MOST of the farms In the coastal region of the South the traveler sees patches of sugar cane. Some of this cane goes to the sirup-making plants that supply the pharmaceutical and beverage concerns, of which there are many south of Mason and Dixon's line. In Savannah and other coast cities it Is common to see the blacks chewing sugar cane. It is nourishing, stimulating and a joy to any one with a sweet tooth, and every darky has the latter. • • ■ ABOUT the only concerns In the Sonth that have not felt the depression are the patent medicine and beverage industries, if Industries they are to be called. There are more of them In the South than In the North and, from what bankers say, their profits are big and all times are good times with them. In one Southern city a patent medicine concern when it Incorporated did so under the same name as that borne by one of the oldest and most respected citizens of that section. The "medicine" Company has its plant near the eminent citizen's great cotton mill and his patience Is about exhausted from explaining that he Is not connected with the medicine house and wouldn’t be for love or money. • • • IT’S all in the point of view. A traveler was asked by a prominent citizen of a Southern centpr as to the hotel in which he was stopping. Tha traveler was apologetic. “I’m afraid,” he said, “I got into the wrong house. I'm at the ." “Why,” exclaimed the local man, “what’s the matter with It? Isn't it firstolnss? We rate It ns our best hotel.” “The trouble with It," replied the Northerner, “is that the rooms are so small that the bed takes up most of the space. The bathroom is not mucb larger than a Saratoga trunk. The clothes closet Is so shallow that when you put one coat in it it is crowded. You cannot get by the bed to reach the bureau without walking sideways. The floor is carpeted.

That's an abomination in the South. In a hot country rugs should be used. The carpet in my room hasn’t been thoroughly cleaned In many a month. The lights are so poor it is diffiiult to read or write at night or on a dark day. The telephone is back of the bed and you have to be something of a contortionist to use It. The ” "Goodness gracious,” said the local man, “I never heard of such a thing. I heard the rooms were small, but I Judged from the lobby, which is grand, and the exterior of the house, which is most attractive, that it was excellent.” “Yes,” replied the Northerner, “that’s the trouble. Travelers get their views of cities largely from the hotels and the local people rarely see the house except as far as the lobby or dinning room.” 1 “But the rates are very low,” urged the Southern gentleman. “They are not,” said the Northerner. “Gauged by the square foot of floor area in the 'room I occupy, it is the highest priced hotel in America. It is run on the principle that all a visitor to your city requires is a bed, a pretense for a bathroom and a pitcher of ice w-a-ter.”—Copyright, 1921, by Rublil Ledger Company.

RAISING MONEY IS ONE OBJECT OF CHEST DRIVE Improvement of Welfare and Relief Agencies Held in View.

Money raising Is not the only objective of the Indianapolis Community Chest. Plans are In the making for introduction of methods that will measureably Improve welfare and relief agency conditions, and at a meeting o the board of directors at the Chamber of Commerce at noon today Fred Hoke, president of the board, made the following statement: “The board of directors of the Community Chest believes that money raising so rtke welfare societies of the city is not the only function it should discharge. tl believes that it should In the Interest of the city's philanthropies and for the protection of its contributors be constantly engaged in supervision of and cooperation wit hthe welfare societies. This is advisable to the end that standards be raise dand that overlapping and duplication be eliminated if they - already exist and prevented for the future. Accordingly, steps are being taken to engage the services of a man experienced in undertakings for the coordination and cooperation of welfare societies. It will be his duty under the Community Chest's board of directors to be in town constantly with the welfare societies that receive funds from the chest and in every appropriate way to keep checks on their expenditures and to bring about increased efficiency and economy.” Massachusetts Man Gets Appointment WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.—The nomination of Ellis Boring Dresol of Massachusetts to be charge d' affaires of the United States tp Germany was confirmed today !by tho Senate. His appointment will I date from Nov. 14, the day President | Harding signed the proclamation of I peace. BLOCKS ACTION ON PLAZA BONDS (Continued From Page One.) : can Legion is something like labor unions, “it only represents about 30 per ceut\of the ex-service men In Marlon County.” The Indianapolis post of the National Disabled Soldiers’ League, In a meeting at ttie courthouse last night commended I Mr. Shank for his stand. j The county commissioners were wnlted 1 upon by a committee consisting of Carleton B. McCulloch, Daniel Glossbrenncr, i Bowman Elder, Judge Arthur It. Robinson of Superior Court, Room 4 and | Samuel Ashby, corporation counsel, i shortly before noon rotative to taking immediate action on the proposed fund Issue. The committee told the commissioners ! that If the sixty-day period, which exi pires the first of next week, comes wlth- ! out official action on part of the commissioners, there would be a legal question raised concerning the bond Issue of ! $1,600,000 which was authorizes! by the j city council because the council was preceding on a Joint resolution of which the ! county and the city were parties. I Mr. George stated that he was in hopes 1 that the people would decide the question |by referendum. Finally he went on record as favoring signing nil order I authorizing the Issue.

was “not going to be hurried” and stated that the order would not be signed today. When President Shank of the council arrived, he blocked any favorable action by definitely refusing to approve of a bond issue at this time. “We can't sell bonds for a tubercular hospital,” Mr. Shank stated. “You may be able to sell them at 0 per cent, but I am not in the mood of signing it now. Others on the board can do what they desire.” Mr. Ashby said that it was the desire of the city to act with the county. “At this time I am not in favor of going through with it,” said Mr. Shank. “How in the hell are the farmers going to pay their high taxes this year? There isn't a farmer who does not have to borrow to pay his taxes. If it were up to you four men to pay all the taxes, I would sign It right away. But you are only one, two, three compared to the great number of tax payers. I am not opposed to the memorial. We have gone on record favoring it, but I am not going to sign anything at this time.” TITEWILER REMEMBERS. As the committee was leaving Mr. Tutewiler, whoso wife wa9 defeated for re-election as a member of the school board, said: “I have not forgotten the referendum a few days ago of the people in voting against decent school houses.” Tu ewiler than added: “I am going to do something for suffering humanity and help the living. I am not going to build a monument for the dead.” “It is not for the dead,” replied Mr. Shank. “It Is for the legion and the soldiers.” Judge Robinson called the attention of the commissioners to the danger of losing the headquarters of the American Legion for Indianapolis if prompt action was not taken. After the meeting Mr. Tutewilcr stated that he was not opposed to the plaza, hut that he was “not going to bo hurried.” t No sooner had the committee left that Commissioners Tutewiler and Shank announced that they would be candidates for re-election at the coming spring primary for the commisslonerships on the Republican ticket. Mr. Shank admitted that he had given up his desire to run efther for county auditor or county treasurer. Mr. Tutewilcr explained as newspaper men left the meeting that tho commissioners could act any time on tile bond Issue. Claude E. Gregg, State commander of the American Legion, last night urged that the county and city cooperate im mediately, in an address at English's

The war memorial commission now has j in its funds a total of $239,183.52, ob- ! talned from taxes and from a special ap- i propriatlon of $50,000. On about Jan. 1 the fund will receive another SIOO,OOO or i $170,000. This fund is kept up by a tax j rate of 6 mills on each SIOO of taxable \ property. The special appropriation of $50,000 \ was made to take care of any expendi- ■ tures before the money from taxation { was available.

clming the State commission is expected to build the memorial on the site of the State School for the Blind, at Pennsylvania, North and Meridian streets. Mayor Charles IV. Jewett issued a statement upon the situation as follows: “Mr. Shank’s statements, that he Is opposed to the memorial plaza, because it will cost $10,000,000 and because he thinks it should be located out around ThirtyEighth streeL are incorrect, for the reason that the building of the memorial itself is to be done by the State commission, and If the city of Indianapolis and the County of Marion do not purchase the two squares between North street and Vermont street, the memorial building will be erected by the State on the Blind Asylum site. Instead of costing $10,000,000, the part the city and county have been asked to pay will cost about $3,000,000, that is, the purchase of these two sauares. “If these two squares are not atquired, the memorial building will have to be placed on the Blind Asylum site, which would ruin forever the possibility of having a wonderful plaza between the Federal building on the south and the Riley library on the north, with the memorial midway between the two, and beautiful park areas on the north and south of it. "I am quite sure the county commissioners will Join the city in purchasing this property, for the reason that they hove said they would do this, and their delay has been occasioned by the fact that they thought the bonds would not sell advantageously at this time However, the bond market has changed materially in the past thirty days and these bonds can now he sold very advantageously at this time. This removes the objection the county commissioners had to

pushing their end of the matter at this time, and I feel sure that the city and county will now join togetner and accomplish this wonderful Improvement. OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE PERMANENT LEGION HOME. I “Two things should be distinctly understood —that the war memorial building wil be constructed by the State, whether ludianapol's purchases the two blocks og not: (2) that the entire project will nfl cort anything like 810.000.000. and probably not to exceed $4,000,000 or $5,000,000. “The two sqvares which Indianapolis and Marion County propose to purchase as a part of the plaza will not exceed $3,000,000. and the cost of the acquisition of this land will be spread over a period of forty-five or fifty years, thus making the payments so light that it will scarcely affect the tax rate. This is an opportunity to secure and make permanent forever the national home of the American Legion. Other cities have offered to do far more than we propose to do for the American Legion. We should not let this project fail. “We are all interested in the disabled soldiers and everything should be done for their betterment and their welfare, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the war memorial plaza. The hospital matters are separate and distinct, and any plan that Mr. Shank may have to take care of the injured and sick soldiers couid J>e carried out without relation to the war memorial plaza.”
