TELLS PRISON HEAD TO IGNORE LAHITSORDERS Lesh Holds Juvenile Court Judge Has Not Power to Discharge Prisoners. Advice not to obey any orders Issued by Judge Prank J. Lahr of the Juvenile eourt to release prisoners was contained In a lettet written by U. S. Lesh, attorney general, -o Miss Margaret M. Elliott, superintendent of the Indiana women's prison today. The letter was In reply to a request from Miss Elliott as to the legality of such action. Miss Elliott told the attorney general that she had received a number of orders from Judge Lahr Instructing her to release prisoners before their terms expired. She quoted one of the orders iu which she was told that “you will please discharge above named prisoner from custody.” QUOTES LAWS OX SUBJECT. In reply the attorney general quoted the laws on the subject and then said: “It la therefore my opinion that the Judge of the juvenile court has no power to discharge prisoners placed in your Institution; that all such prisoners should serve their respective sentences and pay their fines and costs, unless sooner discharged by the Governor or discharged by the court after serving their sen tences and one day for each dollar of the fine and costs, etc. "In my opinion you should not obey any orders of the judge and discharge persons who have not served their full sentences and one day for each dollar of the fine and costs as shown above.” ATTENTION CALLED BY WOMAN’S RELEASE. Attention was called by the pajdon board to the fact that Judge Lahr had ordered prisoners released some time ago. The matter was brought up when rhe board discovered a woman seeking clemency had already been discharged from the woman's prison on order of Judge Lahr. Judge Lahr was absent from his court but attaches there said he had taken the attitude that he had the same right to discharge persons as was given him when the law provided they should be sentenced to the work-house.

FIRST STEPS TOWARD PLAZA TAKEN TODAY (Continued From Page One.) acquire, of the hearings will be sent out today, Mr. Schmid announced. Each property owner will be assigned a time during Monday. Tuesday or Wednesday morning, between 9 and 12 o'clock to appear. The board will hear each owner, who accepts the invitation, declare the value of his property. With this data in hand the board will proceed after Wednesday to personally inspect each piece of property. Mr. Cruse said t? believed the board could begin to fix definite valuations three or four -lays thereafter. President Mark 11. Miller of the board of public works, which appointed the appraisers, said that the valuations have been left entirely up to the appraisers. “We do not propose to dictate to the appraisers In any way or even to participate In any of their hearings.” said Mr. Miller. The appraisers met in the offices of the Indianapolis Real Estate Board on the eighth floor of the Lemeke building. Their deliberations were secret. Tt is understood that all of their meetings will b* private for the reason that matters oi personal finance will have to be discussed with property owners and others in arriving at valuations upon the plaza site property. SEEK METHOD OF DETERMINING VALUES. “We want to be fair with both the Mr. Cruse. “Our instructions from the board of works are that we should be fair and more than fair with the property owners. We have been told that we must keep in mind that we are not valuing the property of people who want to sell, but who are forced to sell and that the attitude of the city is very liberal in this direction. We want everybody to understand that we do not want to steal property from citizens nor trowbeat them Into taking our figures. What we do want to do is to place the best possible price upon their property, and at the same time be fair to the citizens who have to foot the tax bills.” There are seven appraisers and two architectural t drisers entrusted with the work of valuiLg the block the city Is to take over. The appraisers, who are experienced real estate men, are, besides Mr. Cruse and Mr. Schmid: John It. Welch, president of John R. Welch A Rons, Inc.; Herbert E. Fieber of Felber & Reilly: Harry L. Robbins, 506 Lombard building; William A. Young, retired, and William T. Rasmnssen, county Inheritance tax appraiser. The architectural advisers are Robert F. Daggett and J. Emmett Hall, president of the Hall Construction Company. While the city appraisers are organizing the county commissioners are expected to name five men to value the property in the block the county will acquire. This is bounded by Vermont Michigan, Meridian and Pennsylvania streets.

COMMISSION IS HEADY TO PROCEED. Marcus Sonntag, who was re-elected president of the Indiana War Memorial commission at a meeting at the state House Tuesday afternoon, said that tn*’ commission is ready to proceed with plans for the Wold War Memorial building .which probably will be erected upon the city block in the plaza. as soon as it is assured that there will be no hitch in the acquisition proceedings of the city and country. Howard O'Neal of t’rawfordsrille, who was re-elected vice president of the commission and Paul Comstock of Richmond, re-elected executive secretary, were instructed to confer with officers of the American Institute of Architects at Boston within the next three weeks upon plans for the building. Under the State memorial law the commission must conduct a Nation-wide contest for architects to submit plans anti specifications for the memorial. The architects’ officials will be consulted upon the best method of conducting this contest. The law appropriated $35,000 as prises in this contest. The commission will have $2,000,000 with which to erect the building, under the present law. Operator of Still on Farm Fined $l5O Ed. Hartman, Rural Route G, box 84, was fined $l5O and costs in city court today by Special Jpdge Frank Symmes, on a charge of operating a “blind tiger.” When the police on Nov. 12 raided a farm owned by William C. Hartman, his father, who rented it to him. they found a ten-gallon still in operation, four gallons of “moonshine.” and 150 gallons of mash. The only reason Hartman gave for making liquor was “1 need the money.” The charge against his father was taken under advisement. The testimony showed that he was visiting his ■on at the time of the raid. STORY TELLING KID GOES HOME. Charles Brockaway, 16, who gave the police a mystery Monday night by telling a bold shooting story is back at his home in Hartford City today. Brockawey, it was learned, had hun away from, his home and his parents came to Inti lanapolis last night and took him hornet.

GARY OFFICIALS FACE JNQUI ARY (Continued From Page One.) • of liquor which the Gary officials had seized from on automobile said to belong to Dennis Shea of Terre Ilaute, and on numerous occasions she made cash transactions for liquor in amounts equally large. The revelations as to Agnes Szabo astounded the court and on several occasions he asked about her as to her age, her family and other matters. MELLOY TESTIMONY IS SENSATIONAL. Melloy was the first witness for the Government and he began to make sensational admissions almost with his opening words, lie is defendant in the cases and has entered a plea of guilty. He told of arresting Agnes Szabo and her mother with a basket full of "quarts ’ and of taking the case to Justice Clemons' court. They put up SIOO bond, then came back later with $135 additional. The cae then was dropped against them, and the money was divided, he said, between Clemons, Nyhoff and the witness, after making deductions for the lawyer of the Szabos and the fee for the prosecutor. -Has this judge been indicted?” Judge Anderson asked, and being told that the last grand jury had taken no action, he said: “Weil have another grand jury.” Fred Seabright was the deputy prosecutor accused named as receiving $25. Melloy said that the cases of about forty defendants had been handled in this way. WITNESS TELLS OK GRAND JURY LEAK. It was at this point that Melloy declared testimony he had given to the grand jury had t een repeated to his wire even before he got back to Gary. “We can examine the grand jury too. Judge Anderson said, after going into th- matter with the witness thoroughly. Mellov next turned the spotlight on the city court of Gary. He told of the seizure of a car load of whisky, cases supposedly owned by Dennis Shea of Terre Haute. This whisky he said he later sold to Agnes Szabo for $135 a case, which she paid in cash. He sale, t o money was divided betwen Judge M 11liam Dunn. Clyde Hunter, prosecutor: Nyhoff and himself. He said that Nyhoff and himself delivered the whisky to Agnes Szabo and she drove off with it. CHILDREN RIDE IN BOOZE CAR. “She took it away in a seven-passenger Hudson,” Mellov said. “With her were one or two little tots, her brothers or sisters.” He said that when he first became connected with. Judge Dunn's court the whisky Itself was divided, but later when they got so much whisky they didu t know what to do with it. he was told to *ell it and after that the cash resulting fVm the sale was divided. ‘ On one occasion he said he had seized a lot of liquor from Fred Shafer, another defendant, hut that Howard Hay, Republican city chairman at Gary, had ‘‘raised so much Cain’’ that it was glveu back to Shafer. Next came a story of the rivalry existing between the sheriff of Lake County. Louis Barnes, and the city officials in trving to get their hands on seized whisky. He told of the time that he had seized whisky from Alex and Elizabeth C'sallo, and how the big Packard car of the sheriff had followed them all the way to city court. SHERIFF PURSUES WHISKY LADEN CAR. “He wanted to get that whisky,” Melloy said Herman ,T. Nyhoff, another constable and a teammate of Meiioy, who also hasentered a plea of guilty, was the next witness for the Government. He confirmed testimony given by Melloy and told of delivering whisky on two different occasions to the home of Judge Dunn and to Prosecutor Hunter. Three cases were delivered on each occasion. He said that once Mrs. Hunter received the liquor. Another defendant to plead guilty and take the stand for the Government was John M. Kaiu of Chicago, who operated with Melloy and Nyhoff. He told a straight-forward story that seemed to impress the Jury. TELLS OF GU ARDING CARGO OF LIQUORS. He told of the “Shea job," as he termed It, and how he had the whisky for two nights before it was turned over to Agnes Szabo. He also threw a light on the protection afforded customers. When whisky was sold he said that often he or some other constable would ride ahead of the customer's car to see that no attempt at arrest was made by other officials. He testified to trips made by Agnes Szabo with car loads of whisky. Mrs. Mary Smith, proprietor of the St. Regis Hotel at Gary, told of trips made by Agnes to Gary to meet Melloy who lived at the hotel. She said Agnes would call Melloy several times a week hy telephone and that Melloy stored large quantities of whisky In his room. This was whisky which later went to the Szabos. Judge Anderson showed great interest in the present activities of the Szabo family. District Attorney Tan Xuys told him that the family had sold its establishment in South Bend and had moved to a farm where it was conducting the same old business. Judge Anderson then directed Mr. Van Nuys to file injunction proceedings against the continued operation o fthe place, such as were filed two weeks ago against a number of Vigo County roadhouses and which resulted in closing up these places . Tt is not believed that the case will go to the jury before tomorrow. The following defendants are on trial: Agnes, Theresa. George and Joe Szabo; Alex and Elizabeth Csnllo, all of South Bend: Joe Davers. Fred Shafer and Anton Kosiba and Julius Musick, all of Gary; Andrew Kekko ard Steve Deak, both of South Bend. NINE ENTER PLEAS OF GUILTY. Pleas of guilty have been entered by the following: Daniel Mellot, Hermann J. Nyhoff. John M. Kaln and Tony Korases of Gary; Frank L. Arndt, Michigan City; Joe Javinski, .Tames Varga, Charles Ilovarth of South and William Jones of Indianapolis. The grand jury which heard the evidence against the Gary city officials, but failed to return an Indictment, was composed of the following: Elwood Haynes, Kokomo, foreman; John A. Alther. Tipton; William Ashaba, Dayton; Hersehel E. Daubenspeck, Ilushville; Guy A Green, Mount Vernon; Isaac II An, Portland; Andrew Kauffman, Terre Haute; J. S. Morgan, Austin; David Myers, Goshen ; L. B.

RAILROAD MEN AWAIT RULINa DUE TOMORROW (Continued From Page One.) now have no alternative,.lt is understood, than to consider such applications as the roads might make. The situation may come to a head within a few weeks In the event that both the men and the roads ate dissatisfied with the decision, which Is considered quite likely. It was pointed out today that when the board last summer drafted only seven working rules both sides expressed dissatisfaction. Tension is regarded as almost certain to follow tomorrow's decisions, as the question of working rules is considered by the men fully as important, if not more so, than the question of wages. It will be recalled that of the 2.000,000 men involved in the call for a strike Oct. 28 last, 1.419,663 declined to respond to the summons of the “big five” unions on the ground that they were more concerned In the board's forthcoming decision on working rules than they were In the lfft-j per cent wage cut issue which was then the basis of the strike call. This majority faction constituted the railway I employes department of the American Federation of Labor—the shop craft unions It is the shop crafts that will be principally affected by the board's new decision. The questions of overtime pay, Sunday pay, the piece-work system and “skilled men In unskilled jobs” are among the important mailers expected to be covered in the decision. These questions have been debated bitterly before the board for months by representatives of the roads and the men. The roads complained that jthey are being put to great and unnecessary expense by futile union rules and | restrictions and asked for numerous | changes distasteful to labor, such as in- ! augt.ration of the piece-work system. | Labor, on the other hand, maintained It i was fighting ter the retention of regulations that represent enl! keened public ; opinion and the progress or labor. Any action taken by union officials, | it was said today, would be taken In the light that a brand new issue had been created. There is no strike call contingent on the decision regarding new working rules pending. HOOPER SA YS WAGES MUST FIT RULES CHICAGO, Nov. 30. —Any further readjustments of the wages of the employes of the railroads of the country. ; either upward or downward, must be • made to fit Into new working rules which i the I'nited States Railway Labor Board will announce tomorrow. Vice Chairman Ben W. Hooper, of the board, declared here today in a speech bristling with significant allusions to pending railroad Issues. He spoke at a noon luncheon before (he Chicago Association of Com- | merce. He said the decision which the board I vrlll make effective tomorrow will 'eave j the board free to consider requests for wage adjustments long before either the i railroads or the unions bring formal requests before the board. This statement was taken to mean that | the board will take the initiative on the , wage issue. MUNICIPAL MUSIC* IS DATED DEC. 6 \ Three municipal concerts to be given during December under the auspices of the board of park commissioners and board of school commissioners were nn- ' nouneed today. ! On the evening of Dec. C the Matinee I Musieale will give a program In Caleb Mills Hall The annual presentation of the oratorio “The Messiah,” will be given by | the Indianapolis Community Chorus and j assisting artists of national note at Tom* ! linson Hail on the evening of Dec. 15.

‘Ad’ Club Speaker

,y w ’ --

D. M. Baker of the Baker Shook Com* pany, brokers of Indianapolis, will be the principal speaker at the weekly luncheon of the Advertising Club tomorrow in the Chamber of Commerce Building.

tes BENNETT IS OPTIMISTIC. A keen note of optimism is sounded by E. A. Bennett, manager, E. A. Bennett Motor Sales Company, Dort Distributors. According to him signs of the times show a distinct trend toward entering upon anew cycle of business. “Spring will undoubtedly bring with It the upward trend In the aiTatrs of motors and all other lines of business. That America has generally cut its purchases down to immediate needs, should be no sign for discouragement; it has simply been a period of adjustment. America's actual needs, when the reduction of production and Inventories once more become established and accomplish a normal balance, will be sufficient to give every automobile dealer and every other line of business sound and substantial business in sufficient capacity to satisfy the most ardent advocate of optimism. “The national automobile shows, which are now drawing near, always furnish a good barometer of public interest and demand. This year the motoring public are keenly interested In the shows and the space In all national shows has been snapped up very quickly. “Present indications already point to the fact that there is going to be an unusually active interest by the public In all the shows, and this In itself bears out the fact that immediately after these shows we are going to see a period of well established automobile sales, which should begin immediately and very rapidly Increase during the spring and summer months.” NEW PLAN FOR USED CARS. n. H. Brooks, sales manager of the Nordyke & Marmon Cos., is out with a pamphlet in which a plan is offered for the retailing of automobiles on an entirely different basis, providing for the separate handling of used cars and the selling of new cars. He suggests that a corporation be formed and operated under the supervision of the manufacturers of passenger cars, dealers and bankers. This national used car company's sole business will be to buy, recondition and sell used cars, but to handle only used cars from owners who are buying new enrs. Dealers will no longer trade In old cars, but Instead, the customer will be sent to the National Used Car Company, which will Issue a certificate of value, and retain the used car, provided of course the car owner and the company mutually ugree upon the value of the car In question. The certificate of value will then be ac cepted at face value by the deale- as pa-t payment for anew car and by simple hanking methods, the note that the National Used Car Company will give the dealer In exchange for the certificate of value, will he used and Just as soon ns the used ear is sold the note will be redeemed and from this point the deal will be entirely financed by the National Used Car Company, which Mr. Brooks thinks should have a central headquarters with main brnneh houses throughout the country. In each zone where such branch Souses or re conditioning plants sre located, th“re should be as many subbranches as are necessary.

COATS “STEAMERS” MEET DEMAND. Steam cars are to make anew bid for popularity In the near future. At least two will make their appearance in January at about the time of the national automobile shows. Three others are expected to reach the market next spring or summer. What is said to be the most advanced on the new crop of “steamers' is the Coats, with which its producers, Coats Steamers. Inc. of Indianapolis, expect to meet a strong demand early in 1922. Another steam car said to embody unusual mechanical features tending to make for economy of operation is that of tbe Scott-Newcomb Motor Car Company, St. Louis;, Mo. Its steam producing principle is hailed as presenting a thoroughly workable application. I.ikc the Coats, the Scott-Newcomb car is said to be well past the experimental stage. Other steam cars still thought to be in the experimental stage are those of the Barlow Steam Engine Company, Detroit, the Mercury Motor Company, Pittsburgh, and O. C. Trask of the TraskKenuedy Company, Detroit.

U. S. GUNBOAT IS SENT TO AID OF ARMENIANS (Continued From Page One.) Ist government at Mustapha Kemal agreed to evacuate Silicia and Syra, whore they have been the traditional protectors o Christianity since the crusades, they pleaded passionately with the United States to intervene against a nation-wide new butchery of Armenians. The arrival of American naval forces within the area now in controversy between France and Great Britain may well prove to be the thin edge of the wedge for wider American interest in the conflict. It is considered Inevitable the squabble sooner or later will Intrude itself upon the attention of the Washington conference. The Curzon episode has strained relations between the British and French here to a marked degree, although externally concealed. Mr. Lloyd George will find a situation worthy of all his vaunted genius for compromise If, and when, he reaches Washington. It 1 possible to detail the true inwardness of the Anglo-French tension over the Turkish treaty. Far more than British foreign office pique over the “march,” which Lord Curzon accused the French ally of “stealing” lies behnld his protest and attack. A look at the map of Asia Minor tells the story of why the British are resentful apd fearful of what has happened. The Angora agreement gives the French control of an important section of the famed Bagdad Railway, which, in German hands, was an enduring menace to Britain’s land route to India. The treaty also specifically assigns to the Turks, lusting for revenge on the British for the latter's support of the Greeks in the still pending war between Turkey and Greece, the right to transport troops over the Bagdad line. Adjacent to the ; French section of the railway lies Meso- | potamla. A Turkish military assault on ! the great slice of Turkey “mandated” to 1 the British therefore becomes a physical possibility through what amounts to I French connivance. i There is another angle to the situation lof direct and momentous importance to ! Great Britain. Her support of the Christian Greeks against the Mohammedan Turks has aroused serious unrest throughout the Middle East and in India. Ills highness, the Aga Khan, recognized head of the Mohammedans in India. In a statement Issued in London on Nov. 12, stated in the frankest possible manner that British diplomacy. In hacking anti-Mohammedans in the Near Eastern conflict, dangerously has undermined British supremacy in the Moslem world. While that situation was crystallizing, moreover, Christ iau France was extending the hand of friendship to nationalist Turkey, negotiating for the withdrawal of French troops from Turkish territory .and otherwise concluding a treaty of friendship, commerce and amity with the Moslem regime sworn to vengeance on Great Britain. Under the Allled-Turkish peace treaty of Sevres, the rich Turkish provinces of Syria and Cilicia were “’mandated” to France, which proceeded to garrison the territory. Gradually the French army of occupation was Increased to 80.000 largely because of the' war which ensued between Greece and Turkey over the enforcement of the treaty of Sevres. Greece, under mandate from the allies, undertook by n military expedition to exeente the territorial clauses of the treaty. Including the assignment to herself of Smyrna, Thrace and the Eastern Islands of 'he Medtterannenn, formerly Turkish prop* erty. In the hostilities which have raged this year between the Greek anil Turkish nationalists armies, British sympathies—“DANDEßlNE” Grows Thick, Heavy Hair 35-cent Bottle Ends all Dandruff, Stops Hair Corning Out

Ten minutes after using Dander!ne you cannot find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, hut what will please you most will be after a few week's use, when you see now hair, fine and downy at first—yes—but really new hair growing all over the scalp. Danderine Is to the hair what fresh showers of rain and sunshine are to vegetation. It goes right to tlie roots, invigorates and strengthens them, helping the hair to grow long, strong and luxuriant. One application of Danderine makes thin, lifeless, eoloress hair look youthfully bright, lustrous and Just twice as abundant.—Advertisement.

and, the Turks allege, more than sympathies—have been arrayed on the side of Greece. Great Britain felt that the Turk on his black record In Europe was entitled to no support or sympathy from Christian nations. French sympathies inclined toward the cause and hosts of Mustapha Kemal, whose government Is at Angora. Earlier in the year there was a series of conferences, culminating in the celebrated meeting at Si. James Palace iu London last March, at which it was hoped the rival Interests Involved in the Near Eastern settlement could bury their differences. But the Kernallsts boltett the conference and war with Greece followed. At the end of last summer France instituted negotiations with the Turkish government for a clearing up of her own interests in Asia Minor. The French say Great Britain from the outset was aware of the negotiations, but according to Lord Curzon they were conducted in such stealth as to amount to a complete surprise when their final nature emerged last month. POINTS CHARGED AGAINST FRANCE. Among the points which Great Britain alleges France has secured In her “stolen march” in Turkey are the following: 1. Conclusion of separate peace with the Kemalist government, which ia rec-
