SAYS DRY WAR IS NOT ENDED Federal Prohibition Director Asks Aid of Public. Determination to oppose any weakening of the part of the forces entrusted with the enforcement of prohibition laws was expressed last night by speakers of the Marion County Women's Christian Temperance Union in a meeting held- at the old Empire Theater, to celebrate the second anniversary of national prohibition. • Among the speakers were Bert Morgan, Federal prohibition director for Indiana; C. E. Rogers, member of the national prohibition flying Fquadron, and Mrs. Felix McWhirter, editor of the Message, official organ of the Marion County W. C. JT. U. Mr. Morgan warned his hearers the light for prohibition is not oveA “The greatest foe of the Nation today,” he said, “is the man who has no respect for law. Barbarism is still within our midst and if the good men and ■women of this land go to sleep on this Job the fruits of civilization will be destroyed.” He said the Federal Government has given him only sixteen agents for the State and urged the public to give the department every possible support. TWO BOND ISSUES APPROVED. Two bond i sues totaling $60,500 were approved by the State board of tax commissioners yesterday. Twenty-two thousand dollars of this amount will be spent by the city of Laporte for the improvement of the city water works and the remainder will be spent by Tippecanoe County for the improvement of a county unit road.

MEN AND BUSINESS By RICHARD SPILLANE PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 17.—There is a tremendous amount of construction work going to be done in the United States. If it could be started general conditions would be improved greatly. But various factors operate to prevent men from embarking in enterprises of this character. In practically all cases present costs are too high. These costs include the price of money and materials. The wage scale and high rates on transportation of materials. It is difficult to bring bankers, material men, builders, transportation men and labor together and get all of them to agree to make concessions and work for the common good. Generally they are inclined to shift responsibility and be suspicious of each other. Not infrequently they lose sight of the main question and descend to personalities. They lose all sense of proportion and do not appreciate the very great rights of those most concerned —the public.

IN a large Middle West city an effort has been made to get all these elements together on a stable basis and a set program fair to all and at the same time make possible the resumption of construction work. Whose idea it was Is not essential to the narrative. The main facts will do. They may not be exactly as set forth here, but in general they will be correct Here they are: In that city there Is in the municipal government a man of exceptional ability. He is a quiet, softvoiced yet determined man. He has the confidence of the people and deservs It. Being an euginer he knows construction work. Being a person of orderly mind he started out by preparing a table showing the comparative prices of everything entering into the costs of construction work based on the level of 1913. including the maximum in 1920 and the prevailing rate late In 3921. The; Items In this table included brick, rein forcing bars, lumber, paints, varnish, tiles, Iron pipe, plumbing materials, electric equipment, cost of living, wages ofbuildlng craftsmen, freight rates, etc. This chart showed some remorkable irregularities in deflation. Then he got together data regarding building projects deferred owing to high costs. Next he went out and interviewed the persons having charge of those projects and discussed the whole situation with them, the great worth of restoring confidence, getting the wheels of industry started, etc. THE archbishop of that diocese said there were hospitals, parish churches, high schools, etc., which were needed and which would cost about $4,000,000 but which he could not sanction at prevailing prices. The engineer asked the archbishop for a percentage figure on materials and labor at which he would recommend the placing of contracts. The archbishop gave it. “Please put It in writing,” the visitor said. The archbishop did so. The Federal reserve people wanted a new bank building, but were holding off for lower prices. The engineer got a specific statement as to the reduction in material and labor costs that would satisfy them. “Please put that in writing,” he said. It was put in writing. ITwas the same with the head of the Jewish hospital, the chancellor of a great university, a large textile concern, a big theatrical syndicate, the Scottish Rite Cathedral Association, etc. “Please put that in writing,” he said to each. And they put it in writing. Then he went to the material people. “Here,” he said, “I have pledges for work aggregating $15,000,000 if I can get costs down. What will you do? Volume makes it possible for you to cut. I have no doubt I can increase tills total to $30,000,000, perhops $35,000,000 if all concerned do their duty.” The material men told what they could do In the matter of price over a set period of six months or so. “Put that In writing,” he sadi. Then he went to the hankers. He got from the foremost financier of the city a guaranteed rate at whclh he would ipake loans on building construction and also a cut in commission charges. “Put that in writing.” he asked. It was put in writing. Next he went to the labor leaders. He showed the pledges he had obtained. He showed also that wages in the building crafts In that city were the highest or nearly the highest in America, carpenters, cement finishers, electricians,

The labor leaders refused, j They would agree to 7*4 per cent, they j said, but no more. The mild-voiced gentleman said he would go beyond them and appeal to labor Itself. Thereupon he prepared his case, put all the facts In simple form and asked labor to vote “yes” or “no” on the question of accepting a 20 per cent reduction. But he went further. He journeyed to Washington and saw the high officials of the Ameri?an Federation of Labor. They declared the local labor leaders who refused to, cooperate with him fully were fools and were misrepresentatlve of labor. ' “We’ll tell them they are acting like fools,” they promised. “We'll do all we can to make them see they are wrong in their position. We’ll help you.” Now, it's up to labor In that Middle West city to decide by its vote. WHAT has been done In that city can be done in every city in America if the right man takes hold in each instance. It's a one man job. Properly handled, it means not only a decided step toward building resumption now. but a letter understanding of the whole subject in the future.—-Copyright. 1922, by Public Ledger Company. C. OF C.

SUGGESTS WAYS TO BRING ABOUT BETTER TIMES A. J. Beveridge Addresses Anderson Kiwanis and C. of C. Special to The Times. ANDERSON, Ind., Jan. 17.— Normal business will return only when the removable causes of business sluggishness are removed, Albert J. Beveridge told members of the Kiwanis Club and the Chamber of Commerce, in a talk here last night. “Chief of the causes of business stagnation that cannot be overcome by legislation are the wastage and industrial financial dislocation brought about by the war. the' artificial and anti-economic old world situation, created by the impracticable provisions of the peace treaty and the consequent ‘European unsettlements’ as the greatest of financial editors

MASTIN’S VITAMON TABLETS contain not only yeast vitamines but all three of the precious vitamines — A.

has aptly styled the state of things abroad,” Mr. Beveridge said. First among the things that can bt removed, Mr. Beveridge said, is the derangement of the transportation system. He declared that transportation rates must come down, particularly on food and fuel. “When cost of railway labor has been deflated railway rates will come down correspondingly,” Mr. Beveridge said. “Unless this deflation occurs railway rates cannot and will not be reduced much more, if at all.” The second step necessary to improve business conditions, Mr. Beveridge said, is the extension of agricultural credits; but, he said, even this will not help until there Is more Investment of capital. “The chief interference with the working of investing capital is by unwise taxation,” he said. “The man who has a big income does not eat It, does not wear it. He Invests it—is compelled to invest it or see Lis capital shrink. Idle capital is diminishing capital. To the extent that government takes this investing capital, just to that extent it slows down business; It deprives business of the economic energy that vitalizes It.” Mr. Beveridge advocated a sales tax as a substitute for the present income tax. He said a sales tax will not raise prices, but will actually lower them.

First, weigh yourself and measure yourself. Next, take MASTIN’S VITAMON—two tablets with every meal. Then weigh and measure yourself again each week and continue taking MASTIN’S VITAMON TABLETS regularly until you are satisfied with your gain in weight, “pep,” energy and improved appearance.

You can get MASTIN’S VITAMON TABLETS from all good druggists, such as Haag Drug, Hook’s Dependable Drug Stores, Iluder's, I’earson’s, Stuckmeyer’s.
