The third day of the Indiana State fair began with prediction th3t the attendance at the end of the week would reach a greater total than that of any fair in the history of the State. Attendance yesterday was 12,353, as compared with 12,647 on Tuesday of last year. Tne paid admissions Monday were more than 30,000. The “free and easy” ballyhooing old fair is gone. It is replaced by an orderly collection of exhibits, devices and appliances. Only three balloons were to be seen l on the grounds. These were not in the hands of children, but attached to the top of a vender's stand. First Aid Tent The Red Cross and the Boy Scouts of America are cooperating in the maintenance of a first aid tent on the northeast corner of the Women s Building grounds. Scouts sleep in the tent all night. The station is in charge of Dr. Herbert 1 Vagner. The Boy Scout Drum and Bugle Corps, twenty strong, marches playing through the grounds many times during the day. Four hundred and forty-two scouts are on duty at the fair, ushering and Mrving as messengers. Tumblers Good ■ The best act on the bill of vaudeville, produced in conjunction with “The Heart of China.” an extravagant fireworks spectacle, was that the Santiago trio, tumblers. Anita Santiago, “La Roja Llama.” a passionately dancing, swirling, red flame, drew much applause with her dance, all too short. Her brothers, the other members of the trio, were good, as was a trained seal act which folloxved. Two of Johnny J. Jones shows, which hold sway over the midway, especially are worthy of mention. They are the collection of animal freaks and the motordome exhibition of daring motorcycle riders. Thirteen balloons, hearing the advertisements of Indianapolis Arms, were released yesterday at about 2:30. Six of the balloons were found late yesterday, south of McCordsville and Fortville. Fewer Children Children in large numbers were “noticeable by their absence.” With the free admission of children every day, the time-honored Children's Day has disappeared. Then they came home In the evening. tired but happy, with their arms anri pockets loaded with souvenirs, cards, memorandum books, canes, rulers, a whip and a sample of wire fence. The souvenirs are also among the missing. Today, two airplanes from Chicago and two from Cleveland, will deliver mall from these places to the fairground, where it will be loaded in trucks and rushed to the postoffice for distribution. Plans for the poultry show at the fair of 1923 will be made today at a meeting of the Indiana State Poultry Association.

SHANK ROSTS 110 GUI EMPLOYES FROM THEIR JOBS Mayor’s Economy Rampage Falls Heavily on Personnel of Recreation Department. CITY RESOURCES ARE LOW Executive Says That Increases in Salaries Should Be Stopped. One hundred playground instructors, matrons and other employes In the city recreation department lose their jobs by order of Mayor Shank today. With $363,000 in the city treasury and no more available until about Oot. 15, when some tax money will come In, which sum is scarcely enough to meet pay rolls, the mayor Instructed Controller Joseph L. Hogue to order every department head to lay off as many employes as possible and refrain from purchasing any but absolutely necessary supplies during the period. The mayor went on an economy rampage. He vetoed an ordinance appropriating $225 to pay Henry W. Kraemer, Timothy P. Sexton and Patrick J. Cahalane for appraising some obsolete property of the board of public works on ground their appraisements were five times higher than the articles could be sold for, and suggested they fix new values and then present their bill. Increase of the salary of the city court stenographer from $1,200 to SI,BOO by the council drew from the mayor a veto and this expression: "I feel increases of salaries should be stopped now. As long as we are running this city I can get nil the stenographers I want for the salaries now being paid. “I hope that the council does not pass any more salary Increases. All kinds of businesses are decreasing salaries. "It seems like mighty poor business for the city to do what other flmip are trying to undo. I know tnat I am overrun with men and women both applying for every kind of position at the present salaries. “I understand the Judge Jias just one man picked out for the position and he will not work for less than $l5O a month. I believe the judge can get somebody else. If he can't I can send him a plenty. “I understand another ordinance was passed Monday night increasing the probation officers' salary. I believe we got too much probation now and that makes more damnation. What we need is a little more salvation.” In accordance with the mayor's or* der the twenty-five city playgrounds will he kept open as long as weather permits, with only one matron, one instructor and one custodian for each, except on some of the larger ground, where safety demands more, Mcßride said.

Governor McCray said today when Informed of the action taken by Governors Miller of New York and Davis of Ohio. “There has been no complaint made to nie of any profiteering among Indiana operators and should there be any, I would call the operators together before me to thrash the matter out before even considering such action," the Governor continued.

CIRCUMSTANCES INTRIGUE CLARKE WITH LEADERSHIP OF DEMOCRATS
Bv ROBERT ,1. BENDER United New* Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Sept. 6. A curious combination of circumstances works to render the resignation from the United States Supreme Court of Associate Justice John Hessln Clarke, extraordinarily interesting in its political possibilities. While Clarke himself declares there is no political significance in his resignation, despite his intention to promote, both by word of mouth and pen, the cause of future American membership in the League of Nations. following are circumstances upon which political prophets counsel watchful attention to Clarke during the next two years: 1. Clarke is a Democrat, a strong follower of the doctrines of Woodrow Wilson, a liberal progressive, an able member of the bar and generally recognized as a powerful friend of labor. 2. He severs his connection with (he high court at a time when Democratic party leaders, convinced that

Miss Indianapolis Arrives at Atlantic City for Big Pageant
By Times Special ATLANTIC CTTT. N. J.. Sept. 6. "Miss Indianapolis'' is right in the swim at the Atlantic City pageant. This morning she vas presented with the golden key to Atlantic C,ty by Mayor Edward L. Bader. When Mrs. C. Roltare Eggleston and Miss Thelma Blossom, who represents Indianapolis, appear on the boardwalk in their roll ng chairs or 1 steogrffrg Into-their Hudson limousine to go to their yacht, they are the center of attention. Miss Indianapolis and her chaperon are staying at the exclusive Brighton Hotel where a suite has been placed at their disposal. Attired In a snappy sport suit of black and white. Miss Indianapolis presented a striking appearance when she set out to compete with the avalanche of beauty that swept Atlantic City during the post twenty-four hours. Business was practically at a standstill as the third annual beauty pageant opened at 5 a. m .with the most beautiful girls of fifty seven cities in the United States, one from Alaska and one from Canada, entered in the beauty contest for the Golden Mermaid. “Miss Indianapolis will take back to Indianapolis the title of Miss America and the Golden Mermaa," was the statement made by Mrs. C. Roltare Eggleston, chaperon of Miss Blossom. “I have seen nearly all the fifty-seven contestants for the Golden Mermaid snd have yet to meet the one who has surpassed my charge for beauty." "Mrs. Eggleston Is trying to flatter me,” Miss Indianapolis said, in reply I to the chaperon's statement, “but I j do think I am going to return home j with a prize.” "We did not exert ourselves very i much yesterday, and following our j arrival, and my first radio address, Mrs. Eggleston and I left for our hotel. Every one is so nice. It seems as though I am Princess Mary at court,” Miss Indianapolis said. The party of beauties visited the trap shooting grounds on the outskirts of the city, w’here the professionals are competing for honors. Nearly every beauty has some “crack shot” shooting in her honor. Any honor they win will go to the beauty of the city they represent. On the arrival of Miss Indianapolis and Mrs. Eggleston they were officially received by Director General Harry Godshall of the pageant. A limousine was placed at their disposal for the entire visit, which does not end until next Tuesday. They
6.—ln taking a firm position on these two issues, which in more timid quarters are regarded by statesmen and politicians as much too dangerous to touch, Clarke also has taken a position —strictly legal it is true—on prohibition, one of our leading moot questions. It was Clarke who, when the test of the constitutionality of the Volstead law was before the high court, alone of the justices handed down a dissenting opinion, regarded today as the strongest argument ever made against the Volstead act. Because of his position on both domestic and international questions of sharp issue, because of his progressive faith, his popularity with labor and his forceful character, Justice Clarke will bear watching. Furthermore, the conditions of Clarke’s retirement have no parallel in the long history of the high court. The most recent resignation of a Justice of the Supreme Court was in
motored to a radio broadcasting sta tion. where Miss Indianapolis and her chaperon told “the world” how giad they were to represent Indianapolis at the pageant. Last night Miss Indianapolis and Mrs. Eggleston were guests of the Keith management at the Globe Theater. Miss Indianapolis started the day with her chaperon by breakfasting at the Atlantic City Country Club at No rtf-field. and then attended a golf tournament. From there they went to the Linwood Country Club, at Linwood, to attend other athletic events. This afternoon Miss Indianapolis and Mrs. Eggleston were presented to King Neptune nnd took part in the grand revue of the Atlantic fleet. Yacht races also were on the program. Tonight Miss Indianapolis, attired in the marvelous Paris evening gown pr * sentod to her by L. S. Ayres & Cos. of Indianapolis, will attend the grand formal ball to be given at the RitzOarlton Hotel. Mrs. Eggleston will wear a wonderful creation purchased at the Block store in Indianapolis. Tomorrow Miss Indianapolis will take her place in a rolling chair, which was decorated for her by the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, to compete for honors in the famous rolling chair parade of beauties. PASTOR IS CITED FOR CONTEMPT Judge Francis Baker Will Hear Cases Against Shopmen Thursday Morning. Judge Francis Baker will arrive In Indianapolis Thursday to occupy the bench in Federal District Court in the hearing of ten citations for contempt against striking shopmen alleged to have violated the Federal injunction recently issued. Among the citations Is one against the Rev. J. C. Cassidy, of Quincy, lnd., w r ho, it is alleged, preached from the pulpit sermons favorable to the strikers and against the railroads. Another charges the molesting of Purdue students who are working in the railroad shops at Lafayette. An agreement reached by seventy persons cited for contempt and the posting of six bonds of SSOO each by labor organizations to satisfy the railroads will be submitted to Judge Baker for approval.
1916 when Charles Evans Hughes sent his resignation to President Wilson. Hughes resigned to accept the Republican nomination for President. Aside from retirements because of age, there have been but three other outright resignations. When the court was first established it was not regarded with the awe in which it is held today. Therefore, Chief Justice John Jay did not hesitate to resign in 1795 to become a candidate for Governor of New York. In 1857 Associate Justice Ben R. Curtis of Massachusetts resigned because, as he expressed it, of disgust with the Dred-Scott decision of the court. Justice Curtiss wrote a dis senting opinion in this famous controversy. Associate Justice John A. Campbell of Alabama resigned in 1861 to become Secretary of State for the Southern Confederacy. Justice Clarke’s resignation, veteran court attaches say. is the only instance where a member has retired without having some immediate and compelling object in view.

By United Press * WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—Organized labor expects to quash or force modification of the Daugherty injunction.

RESENTMENT By United Press ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 6. —“The ’resentment’ manifested by our people and the press of the country against Attorney General Daugherty's unwarrantable injunction is a most gratifying manifestation of the real American spirit,” Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, said here today. “The strike of the railway shopmen could be adjusted in a day if the situation were approached from the standpoint cf humanizing the problem, rather than commercializing it,” he added.
Forecast Generally fair and continued warm tonight and Thursday.
TWO CENTS
Daugherty Makes .Statement Daugherty said, in a formal statement: “Free speech and free press end when used as an instrumentality to incite to riot and to murder and to interfere with the government. Anything done to conI tribute to a riotous end is a violation of the law and of this injunction. There is no objection to | union meetings when they are not calculated to interfere with interstate commerce. “The situation is very quiet and very comfortable. I look for matters to quiet down satisfactorily within a week. For the first time since the critical stages of the railroad strike, not a single request for a deputy marshal has come in today.” Johnston Makes Speech Almost at the same time Daugherty was giving expression to his views, William Johnston, one of the most active leaders of the striking shopmen, was making a speech to strikers at the Washington terminal here. The injunction, Johnston said, “is ti big noise," and called on the workers of America to “rise and repudiate any Government official or the Admin is tration that backs any attempt to invada the freedom of American citizens. This eleventh hour attempt to intimidate, to coerce, to bring into play tha Big Berthas of the Administration* will utterly fail.” Johnston advised the local workers to continue their union meetings and their picketing of the shops.
