What Our End of Town Wants Civic Club Leader Tells of Plans for 1924, By W. T. QUILLIN, President Englewood Hustling Hundred. I ,-pj HE Englewood Husting HunI dred is an organization of men united for the common purpose of advancing the moral and civic life of the community; standing ready at all times to combat anything which Sthe welfare of the community, to the end that It may become a better place in which to . jja ing before the •agpj organization are m&S V*"" JB measured and the fc -J i stand taken there* Sam urn aKSEB on is governed by W. T. QUILLIN the result. The organization has declared itself for strict and impartial enforcement of the law, beginning with the Constitution of the United States in its entirety, down to the ordinances of the city, because the safety of society rests thereon. The organization has taken a stand for the retention and the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution, not alone because it is the law' of the land, but because the organization stands unalterably opposed to the liquor traffic in any form whatsoever. It considers the plea for the return of light wines and beer, coupled with declared opposition to the return of the saloon, as hypocritical and an Insult to public intelligence, since its sale would necessitate some soft of a public dispensary, call It what you may. Against Rate Increases The organization has consistently, but with futility, opposed all rate advances by public utilities because It Is convinced that the people are being treated unfairly; that through financial jugglery, expert distortion of facts and legal chicanery, a false foundation is erected'for -exorbitant rates. When it sees the A. T. & T. Company allowed to manipulate Its puppet, the Indiana Bell, In the staging of and getting by with the ‘‘from-one-pocket-to-another” farce, paying 4Vs rer cent of Its gross earning annually as rent from Itself to itself, thus through a technical but flimsy subterfuge receiving just that much more return on top of the return allowed It upon Inflated valuation, the hearts cf our members are filled with bitterness against a}l concerned and the only solace left them is the knowledge that a day of reckoning Is fast approaching.

For Municipal Ownership Because this same attitude of unfairness permeates our local utilities, the organization is convinced that no remedy exists for the correction of the oppressive rates imposed unjustly upon the people other than municipal ownership of those utilities, operating upon a basis found successful in hundreds of other and larger cities of the United States and Canada. This organization will not be satisfied until the people of this city own and control their utilities. This organization does not favor the passage of the pending smoke abatement ordinance unless it specifically exempts private residences from its provisions. Such exemption would not invalidate the ordinance or> the ground that It unreasonably discriminates between classes, according to the People vs. Lewis, 86 Michigan 273. The organization has taken a stand for the unhampered spread of Christianity and the improvement of public educational facilities, and will continue to aid in the promotion of such program. It believes in beautifying our city and in the advancement of her material interests, but not to the neglect of the mental and moral dovelopment of her future citizens. Tonsorial Burglar . Police sought a burglar with tonsorial inclinations, when Thomas Cox, 607 liai-irel St.,' reported tools valued at IK’S taken from his barber shop.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Seven-Cent Fare Urged by Dr, M, J, Spencer, Member of Board of Works, as H is Solution of How to Pay for Company’s Paving,

Return to the city of John Elliott, city engineer, has reopened the question of who shall pay costs of paving between street car tracks when contractors bid 50 cents a square yard extra for track paving. A conference between Elliott and members of the board of works late Friday revealed that bids of contractors on Thirty-Fourth St. and Roosevelt Ave., asphalt paving were higher for car track work. The Street Railway Company, under the law, pays extra costs only when a different paving, such as brick, is specified for along the rails. The street car company accepted the regular asphalt surface between tracks on these streets. Agreement Once Reached In a conference several weeks ago between the board and street railway officials, the board agreed with the car company that extra costs are not involved In street car track paving. Elliott was not at this meeting, but said contractors always figured extra time and labor in paving between tracks.

Crippled Boy’s World Is No Place for Tears

Motherless Youngster Sees Life a Dream In His Convalescence,

Nyoka Arthur, 9, of Terre Haute, motherless, is happy today. At the Robert W. Long Hospital he is dreaming of the day when he will be able to walk and play like other boys. Nyoka is the latest entrant to the children’s ward at the hospital. He was admitted through the efforts of the Riley Memorial Association and citizens of Terre Haute for treatment to cure his curved spine and tubercular leg. He had to be lifted up the steps to the hospital. Most hours of the day ho lies on his back on a cot. But like the ’’happy little cripple,” he does not complain. “Some day I’m going to walk.” he said. “And I’m going to school.” School holds none of the terrors for him that it does for the average boy and girls. Nyoka never has had a chance to go to school. “And I’m going to learn to play ball and to play tag, too,” he prophesied. He will remain at the Long Hospital until the first unit of the Riley hospital is completed early next year, and then he will be taken to the Riley.

A plan to allow the city to buy the tracks of the Indianapolis Street Railway Company and lease them to the company was advanced by Elliott as one way out of the problem. He pointed out the company was unable to meet maintenance costs at present. “It’s not right to make property owners pay extra for paving because a car line is on their street,” said Elliott. “Car tracks are usually detrimental to property In the residential sections, anyway.” Would Have 7-Cent Fare Dr, M. J. Spencer, member of the board, proposed a 7-cent straight fare with free transfer to provide increased revenue for the company. “The working man usually pays 7 cents to get to work anyway, while the business men pay 5,” said Dr. Spencer. Charles Coffin and W. T. Freeman, other members of the board, said they had misunderstood the street -allway officials, and thought no extra costs were involved in street paving. The company, it is understood, thawed that one contractor did not charge ter track paving.
