HOGUE ASKS MONEY LEAK BE STOPPED (Continued From Page One.) lntendent of parks that the greatest child delinquency problem Is on the north side “because the parents up there are too busy playing whist and bridge to know what their children are doing.’’ “All of you fellows keep saying, ‘Oh, we'll have the council appropriate some more money for this and that,’ ” said Mr. Hogue. “Don’t you know it is impossible for the council to appropriate a nickel more? Don't you know the general fund is appropriated up to the limit right now? As things stand now you are not going to be able to reduce taxes next year. You are going to have to raise them. We've all got to pull together for economy.” The controller said he was not in favor of reducing wages or cutting down the number of city employes in wholesale lots. He suggested, instead, some scheme of working all employes on "a part time basis be worked out so everybody would have at least enough to live on throughout the year. Commenting upon the financial situation the mayor said: “This other administration embarrassed us and did it purposely. He (evidently referring to former mayor Charles W. .Tewett) stood out here on the balcony on the day of my inauguration and said that they were not leaving us any indebtedness and" were leaving us a balance of 5140.000 in the treasury. Instead we find debts of $150,000 left us.” Councilman Lloyd D. Claycombe wanted to know where the money was coming from. “It always comes from some place.” replied the mayor. “Yes, from an increased tax rate,” replied the councilman. “Well, increase It, then.” “If you do that, you'll hear from the taxpayers,” said Mr. Claycombe. When City Civil Engineer John L. Elliott hnd Street Commissioner Martin .1. Hyland confirmed his assertion almost all the unpaved streets in town could be paved for the money it will take to keep up the unimproved highways in the next twenty years, the mayor burst forth with his plan to hard-surface every street in the city. He urged all the councilmen and all department heads to go among their friends and neighbors and plead with them to file petitions with the board of public works to have their streets permanently improved. HYLAND OBEYS SHANK'S ORDERS. As part of this movement Street Commissioner Hyland sent to the board of public works petitions for the permanent improvement of seventy-two streets and alleys upon which he had received requests for cinder treatment. He did this under instructions from the mayor. The Cabinet meeting started stormily when Dr. M. J. Spencer of the board of public works reported taht only $7,000 of the $20,000 emergency relief fund for the unemployed, out of which men have been paid $2 a day for working on streets, would be left next Saturday night and It was thought advisable to transfer $5,000 more to the fund so the men could be kept working two or three weeks longer. Councilman Otto Ray voiced Instant objection because he thought big cor-

Hoosier Athletic Club Provides Training for Sons and Daughters of Its Members

Physical education of boys and girls, the sons and daughters of members, Is one of the strong features ofrtiie educational program of the Hoosier Athletic Club. "It is hoi the physical training should be started young,” said Physical Director George Lipps. In childhood is the best time to correct physical defects and to cure the abnormal. Early physical training brings the boy or girt strong and healthy to adolescence or young maahood or womanhood. Weak, anemic

poratious had seized upon the fact the city was paying $2 a day as an excuse for cutting their wage scale# to the same figure for laborers. He also charged, instead of being put to work on the streets, men who applied for the emergency jobs were sent to work for put>% lie utilities. The mayor and other officials said they did not believe it. “Well, the fact remains the Citizens Gas Company laid off men on- week and hired men from here for 25 cents an hour the next week,” persisted the councilman. President Theodore J. Bernd of the

girls are transformed into strong healthy ones through regular physical training, through gymnastics, dancing and swimming. Boys are developed wonderfully physically through this education, and being developed physically, they are, of <•our.se, benefited mentally.” The boy or the girl needs this physical training, says Mr. Lipps, because there is too much nerve si ress In the lives of the modern boy or girl—too much strain on the brain and the nervous system, which is balanced by physical work, properly conducted.

j council advised the Administration to 'send the ordinance transferring the $5,000 addition to the emergency relief fund to the council. The purchase of the three badges for SBS by the board of safety was brought up by the board of safety itself. Controller Hogue remarked several days ago he did not see why the board did not have its badges set with diamonds. ARMITAGE POPS BADGE QUESTION. Board Member James E. Armltage broached the question when he.said the board of safety under the Jewett ad- |

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, TIWSDAY, MARCH 14, 1922.

The club begins the physical education of the daughters of its members early, a class for girls from 6 to 9 years of age meeting Tuesday from 4 to 4:45 l>. m. and on Saturdays from 10:45 to 11:110 a. m. The second girls from 10 to 14 years of age meet twice weekly, as do the girls of the high school age. All this gymnasium work, according to Mr. Lipps, coupled with the education and practice in swimming, with folk and aesthetic dancing furnishes grace, health, beauty and happiness.

[ ministration paid $95 instead of SBS for J its badges. “We didn’t see the badges | nor know what they cost," he said. “George W. William*, who was acting as j clerk for the board during January, told :us that it alwavs had been the custom j for the city to buy badges for the board iand he would order ours if we wanted ! him to. We told him to go ahead and | this is the result. If tile eittzens of Indianapolis think we have done wrong why we'll pay for them. As r matter of fact we're even wearing them.” Although the mayor tried to stop the I badge argnment right there, President

Ernest L. Kingston of the board of safety arose with fire in his eye to carry It on. As fast as the mayor tried to wave him down he would insist: “Let me finish what I have to say.” “We don’t want to hear about those darned badges,” the mayor said. “Well, let me finish anyway,” and the board president did finish. HOGUE SAYS “LET HIM TALK.” “Let him go on, let him talk,” advised Controler Hogue with a grim smile on his faca. “I want ’em to have the best badges there are. They are the best board we've had in years,” said the mayor. Even that did not stop Xlr. Kingston. “This board is not going to do any grandstanding,” he said hotly. “We are not trying to stand out as individualists. We are merely members of the administration. None of us have any idea of running for mayor after we get through with our present office. If Mr. Hogue finds anything wrong with our actions he should take it up with the board, and if that doesn’t satisfy him then go to the newspapers. “I have heard it said Mr. Hogue, when he was street commissioner once hauled off an old bridge and built himself a coal yard out of it.” Later, white he was talking of the money shortage, Mr. Hogue said : “I didn't intend to discuss the badge question, but I will say that if I was the purchasing agent I'd bed and if I would sign anything sent to me from any department if I didn't know the cost. Jesse Miller didn't know what those badges were going to cost.” The mayor was asked by Mr. Bernd ir he had told employes of the city garage they would have to become members of a union or lose their jobs, when such

men were receiving 65 cents an hour, whereas the union scale is 75 cents and when the men were dissatisfied to work for 65 cents on the ground the extra 10 cents under the union scale would be eaten up by union dues and assessments. MAYOR FAVORS STANDARD WAGE. Mr. Shank quickly replied in the negative, saying he only had said he believed all city employes should be paid the standard wage. lie said he never would sign an ordinance to cut the pay of ary city employe. Mr. Bernd and Mr. Claycombe said they thoughtrHt would be better to pay lower wages and keep everybody working full time. The mayor | said he would rather pay decent wages j and hire the employes eight months a . year. Building Commissioner Francis L. ; Hamilton and Councilman Walter W. Wise said the building code should be revised, and the mayor announced he would appoint a committee of nine technical men to work out a revision. Mr. Hamilton also declared the city | needs additional building inspectors more than it does a smoke inspector. The mayor said it would be a backward j step to eliminate the smoke inspector ! and ordered Mr. Hamilton to start enI forcing the smoke ordinance, i “Go out and arrest some of these faeitory owners, if you have to,” said the i mayor. “And don’t let any of them tell you they have a pull.” I Inspection of electrical equipment, in-

augurated in February, resulted in the elimination of from 1,500 to 2,000 fire hazards, Jacob E. Reidel, director of fire prevention, reported. He said that inspectors found approximately 1,300 fuse plugs patched with pennies and other materials that rendered the plugs useless. Dr. Elizabeth Conger, city poundmaster, made a plea for better quarters for impounded dogs, pointing out the present miserable quarters are infected with distemper and dog influenza and many fine animals are lost. The mayor suggested Dr. Conger try to get one of the deserted buildings at the old workhouse, but she said the Loard of safety is negotiating with the Indianapolis Humane Society for the use of the new animal shelter home on the Pendleton pike. “Well, go to it. As long as you don’t catch one of my dogs, you’ll get along all right,” said the mayor. Hog: Roots Farmer Out of Industrial Mire CHICAGO, March 14—The lowly hog of the corn belt has rooted the farmer out of the mire of industrial depression, the Chicago Livestock Exchange today reported. The turn in the business in grain States is attributed to the rise in hog prices, which has amounted to $30,000,000 during the last two months.

No More Nights Without Sleep The Remarkable Effect of Wheeler’s Nerve YifeUlxer tliat Induces Calm, Restful Sleep When Nerves Are Worn Out. Those nights of sleepless torture need not be put up with, now that the nerves can be quieted safely. Read what Mrs. Stahl says about her case: “My case was one of chronic sleeplessness. I suffered from this for more than ten years. I used all sorts of treatment, had medical men in Germany and England prescribe for me, tried the Kneip cure with electric baths, also osteopathy, but all of these were unsuccessful in bringing results. By a mere coincidence I came in touch with Wheeler’s Nerve Vitalixer, I gave it a fair trial and found it of great benefit. It gave me the most valuable thing in the world —sleep.”—Mrs. Fannie L.
