REALTORS PLAN MULTIPLE LISTING Greater Service to Buying Public Is Purpose of Project. Indianapolis realtors are considering the adoption of a system of multiple listing, which, according to H. T. Hottel, executive secretary of the Indianapolis Real Estate Board, is in use in about seventy five cities of the United States. According to this ays tern, property listed with one dealer la automatically hated wjth *ll dealers udopting the system. A fee of 25 cents is charged the member listing a piece of property. The advantage of such a system is j greater service to the buying public, it is said. A prospective purchaser can get a list of all properties in the city from one broker. This eliminates "shopping.” it is said. Opponents of the system say that it eliminates com petition. According to the system the dealer ; closing the deal gets f.6 2-3 per cent of the commission. The remainder goes to the dealer originally obtaining the listing. A set of by-laws for the multiple listing system have been worked out by the mulUple listing committee of the Real Estate Board, composed of Lawrence J. Welch, chairman; Harry G. Templeton, Fred Slllery. Orin Jessup, Irvin Morris, W. B. Dunlap, Thomas F. Carson and William L. Bridges Tl articles will be discussed at a meeting of the Real Estate Board Wednesday at the Chamber of Commerce.

BALKS AT BOOST IN FOOD FUNDS Councilman Buchanan Says Prison Fare Is Bread and Black Coffee. Bread and hlack coffee is the menu fed inmates of the city prison, Coun cilman Heydon W. Buchanan said he was informed, and voted "no” on an order to transfer S9OO to the “meals for city, prisoners" fund at the council meeting last night. “Why, would It take S9OO to buy bread and black coffee just for the rest of the year?” asked Buchanan. Deputy City Clerk John Ambuhl said he saw meals carried *o prisoners every day and generally they consisted of bread, coffee, beef and potatoes. Councilman John E. King said the number of prisoners had increased until "half of Indianapolis” was in city court every day, and this was why more money was needed. "What do they feed them?” Buchanan inquired. “I never ate there,” replied King. Controller Joseph L. Hogue explained the city has a contract at 20 cents a meal. “What can you expect for 20 cents?” asked Hogue. Prisoners will continue to eat. Buchanan changed his vote to "aye” and the ordinance passed unanimously. RESTORE TRAINS Big Four Promises Resumption of Old Schedule.
