$. S. STRENGTH IS DISCLOSED BY TIGHT ERA Nation Moves Along, Despite Drastic Deflation. 1922 GIVES HOPE Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By RICHARD SPILLANE. In various of its phases 1921 'was the most remarkable year in the history of American business. It saw the climax —the close —of the most rapid and drastic liquidation to which the Nation ever was subjected. The marvel i3 that with the crumbling of values, the very great swing from the peaks to the depths, the prostration that affected so many industries and the widespread unemployment, there was no suggestion of fcftnic, little disorder, bank uiiur. , were comparatively negligible, and commercial failures not so many as might be expected. The new year "ires promise of slow but steady Improvement. Anything other [than that would be unhealthy and bring [painful reactions.

CRUX OF PEACE STILL LIES ON RHINE’S BANKS Demands of French Traceable to Treaty Failure. Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By COL. EDWARD M. HOUSE. PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 2.—Last August, when the opinion was expressed that the Washington conference could not count upon the cooperation of France In its efforts toward the limitation of armaments, the events of the past few weeks were anticipated. The reasons set forth then were based upon conditions which have remained unchanged. It Is useless to deny that France's attitude regarding the limitation of armaments, both on land and sea, has shocked this country, but It should have been known in advance. The cause for her action goes hack to the tripartite treaty, in which Great Britain and the t nited States guaranteed to come to the aid of France if an unwarranted attack was made upon her by Germany. For this guuarantee she gave up her demand for som disposition of the left bank of the Rhine, which would have given, according to her military experts, the security desired. The tripartite treaty failed of ratification in our Senate, going down with tile Versailles treaty which Included the League of Nations. Having given up the plans for selfprotection on her pattern frontier, and having failed to obtain substantial assurances elsewhere. France feels compelled to fall back upon her own resources. These resourcesc are mainly the army, supplemented by man power from French colonies. Left as she is, France stands today with less than 40,000,000 of people, against whom she visualizes nearly 60,000.000 of Germans. It is a handicap which she is seeking (Continued on Luge Six.)

cause the road is parallel with the river it this point and to drive the car over it was neeesasry to turn it across the road. Police were dragging the river today near the place where the first automobile was found to locate the body. Because of the swift current, and the high water the officers were experiencing great difficulty. Lieut. Michael Hynes, in charge of ehe automobile section, and Detective William Ruggenstein, are making an investigation of the wreckage. FALLS IX PILE OF RUBBISH. The only thing which prevented the first ear from going into the river and into deep water, was the fact that it fell in a pile of rubbish after it left teh load. Mr. Miers, who is a sales agent for the National Automobile Company, said that the ear had only been run about 5,000 miP-s. Mr. Burros reported his anto stolen from Ohio and Illinois streets, Tuesday night. Everett Strossmeier, 17-19 Eugene street, and Timothy Bruce, 11*4 Roch street, saw the automobile in tue river Dear the Cold Springs road, Wednesday. When they again saw the ear there Thursday, they removed a license plate and. turned it over to Robert Hume of ‘he automobile license department at the State House. Mr. Hume notified Lieut. McMurtry of the defective department and he found the automobile h id been *Solen Tuesday night. The owner of the car was notified. Mr. Burns obtained the service* of John Pn -sly. owner of the John Pressley Automotive Company, and Mr. Linn to get the car out of the river. These men attached a cable to the automobile and started to drag it up the steep bank. As the cable became taut the car was lifted and the body wag released from beneath it. The body floated down stream and disappeared.

FIRE FIGHTERS SEE SHAKE-UP IN PERSONNEL Safety Board Makes Shift of FiftyEight Men. LIST MADE PUBLIC Fifty-eight officers anrl men in the fire department were due to enjoy or suffer changes in rank through action of the new board of public safety this afternoon. All of the changes were to be made upon formal recommendation of Jchn J. O’Brien, newly appointed fire chief. Many of the promotions and reductions have not been announced heretofore and were kept from publication by Chief O’Brien in order that there might be as little disruption of the morale of the department as possible. The sb.ake-np was due tc result (n the pr-t.notion of one battalion chief to first assistant chief, promotion of six captains to battalian chiefs, reduction o? three battalion chiefs to captains, retirement on pension of two battalion chiefs, two captains and two lieutenantst reduction of six captains to privates and one captain to lieutenant, promotion of eleven lieutenants and one private to captains, reduction of two lieutenants to privates, promotion of eight chauffeurs and seven privates to lieutenants and promotion of six privates to chauffeurs.

REPRIEVE TERM OF PARSONS UP; JAIL NEXT STEP Convicted Alan at Liberty Through Efforts of Former Mayor. Harry Carsons, convicted In the Marion County Criminal Court in May, 1920, for receiving stolen property, must go to jail. The ten days reprieve granted him by Governor Warren T. McCray, Dec. 22. expired today and the Governor said he would not grant additional clemency, and that he would follow the recommendations of the pardon board. Parsons, through the influuence of former Mayor Charles W. Jewett, has been attempting to gain a pardon from the State pardon board, blit It was learned today that the board had not made any recommendations for clemency. Shortly after he was sentenced to the reformatory from one to fourteen years he appealed to the State Supreme Court, which upheld the verdict of the jt ry in the Criminal Court. He then asked that Hie Supremo Court rehear the case, hut this motion was denied. He then asked the parc’on board to hear the case. Parsons was granted a reprieve on Nov. 22, while the case was being heard by the pardon board. Rather than send him away before Christmas the Governor granted him an additional reprieve. Mr. Jewett appeared before the board and asked that Parsons he paroled, because the confession was wrung from 1 him at the point of a gun by Ids confederates, according to the former mayor. Parsons, it is believed, will be taken to the reformatory at Jeffersonsville in a few days by Sheriff George Snider. Several police officers, who were instrumental in the arrest and conviction of Parsons appeared before the pardon board and told of how Parson? confessed to them, denying the mayor’s statement.

Luxury Tax. Held Nu is an ce. Off Slate DISLIKED MORE THAN CAUSE OF ‘TEA PARTY’ Fidgety Americans Express Their Relief

Gone is the luxury tax, or as it is sometimes called th* nuisance tax, which has caused so much confusion and bad feeling among purchasers of railroad tickets, toilet amcies, clothing, general merchandise, Pullman berths, soda water and numerous other articles for the better part of the last four years. For when Old Man 1921 departed at midnight Saturday he took with him the greater part of the luxury tax, probably one of the most generally disliked taxes ever Imposed on the American people since the days of the tea tax that ended in the famous Boston Tea Party. The unpopular feature of the tax arose, not so much from any feeling that the amount of money raised under it was excessive or enormous, hut from the sheer annoyance of It. BOTHER GETS ON NERVES. It was intensely annoying to a purchaser of a railroad ticket or a berth to have to wait while the S per cent tax was figured. The patron of the soda counter w'ho paid the amount called for on the face of the cheek became angry when the cashier at the counter "bawled him out” for neglecting to pay the extra cent or two for the tax. It was not the amount of money involved that aroused all these antagonlsticWfeelings, so much

41 MEN WILL BEREDUCEDIN COP SHAKE-UP Shank Order Assumes Proportions of Quake. OFFICERS TOPPLE The shake-up in the police department ordered by Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank shortly after his election in November assumed the proportions of an earthquake this afternoon as the new board of public safety set about making changes which will mean the reduction of forty-one ranking men.

Kinney to detective captain; Inspector of Detectives Herbert Fletcher to detective sergeant; Captain of Detectives Fred Simon to detective; Lieutenant of Detectives Henry Askics to patrolman; Lieutenant of Deteetir.s Jesse MeMurtrlo to detective sergeant; Captain Claude Johnson of the traffic department to detective sergeant ; seven detective sergeants to patrolmen; two detective sergeants to blcyclemen; one lieutenant of police to biryeleman: one lieutenant of police to sergeant, throe lieutenants of police to patrolmen; two captains of police to ratrolinen; one captain of polir* to sergeant; two blcyclemen to patrolmen; one sergeant of police to turnkey, eight police sergeants to patrolmen; one wagonman to patrolman; one motorcycle sergeant to inotoreycleman; one police sergeant to blcyeU-mau; three traffic-men to patrolmen. PROMOTIONS FROM RANKS. The promotions to fill these vacancies will mark a general movement upward of men from the present ranks. Herman F. Rlkboff was to Le formally appointed to succeed Chief Kinney; Detoctive Sergeant John Mullen to succeed Inspector Flet'-her and Detective Sergeant Michael Hynes to be lieutenant In tlie detective department. In the uniform police department Captains Alfred llay and Ed Ball were to be reduced to patrolmen.

James Tuck was to be reinstated as a patrolman and promoted to captain, then (Continued on Pago Thirteen.)

as the bother and annoyance of the things, the customers declared. Soda cashiers became worn to a frazzle from repeating hundreds of times a day !he well worn parrot-like phrase, “Lady, oh lady, you forgot your war tax." One cashier at a down town drug store says she has estimated that since the tax went Into effect she has repeated that phrase exactly 1,824,940 times, and now that the tax has been removed she will Just have to keep on saying it at regular intervals for a week or two until she can break herself of the habit. Asa plain matter of fact it does not look as if the removal of the tax is going to be reflected by a consequent lowering of prices in all lines of goods affected proportionate with the 3 to 8 per cent tax which has been imposed. SAVING ON FARES, SODA PRICES SAME. Os course, the saving will be effected, every penny of it, to purchasers of railroad tickets and Pullman berths. At none of the downtown drug stores ha 9 there been any reduction In soda prices outside of popular soft drinks, which in most instances were 1 cent cheaper than before. This was explained by a druggist who said, “We cannot cut ice cream soda prices further for two reasons. First

ONLY MINOR POSTS AWAIT RATIFICATION New City Boards to Fill Jobs Today. A number of appointments, net hitherto announced, were to be made by the board of public works and the board of public safety, outside the police and fire aepartments, as well us Mayor Samuel Lew is Shank in the first meetings this afternoon. In the principal offices, the appointments to be finally confirmed by official appointment were the same as have been announced fro a time to time. It is in the lesser • ppointments that most of the new : .ces are slated to appear. Among appointments not published heretofore schet lied to be accomplished this afteri oon are the following: Albert Bridges for market house watchman; liob Hathaway and Fred Kilts for deputy inspectors of weights and measures; Emma Johnstone for bookkeeper in the purchasing department and Gladys Hicks to be clerk and Opal M.

we have not been asking the customer to pay the tax but have been paying it ourselves; second, the reduction is more apparent and real. It has merely been taken off the drink served at the counter and placed on the syrups, which lit the long run amounts to the same thing.” THEATER TAX REMAINS. * "I knew there was a catch in somewhere,” a customer said when he heard this explanation. “There always is for the buying public. When the tax went into effect, dealers jumped the price of tooth paste, sodas, soap, toilet articles in general and everything affected about 5 to 10 cents for every cent of tax, and now that the tax has been removed they hate even to reduce the prices by she amount of the tax.” The theater tax still remains. By a provision of the law the tax is removed on all shows where an admission of 10 rents or less is charged. A few years ago when a 10 cent show was a highbrow one indeed and the usual charge for a movie was a jitney, this would bnve made some difference. But under existing conditions Ihe 10-cent movie Is about as scarce in Indiana as a great auk, the buffalo, the passenger pigeon or a one-lung automobile, so as far as theaters are concerned It looks as if the tax will conunue in force and for the time being at * asL
