ALLHOOSIERBOM ANSWERS CALL ON DEFENSE DAY Local Celebration Greatest Patriotic Affair in Years. Detense Test day celebrations in Indiana Friday brought forth a tremendous outburst of patriotic sentiment in all parts of the State, according to word received today by Maurice E Tennant, State chairman. Despite adverse weather conditions in Indianapolis and many other cities the greatest crowds for a military affair since Armistice day. Nov. 11, 1918, turned out and rain failed to dampen the ardor of marchers and spectators. Programs varied widely in different cities, mass meetings, parades and speechmaking being among the forms which the celebration took. In many places half holidays were declared, business hmises and schools being closed during the afternoon. Largest Since Homecoming The Indianapolis celebration was the largest patriotic demonstration since Homecoming day in 1919. The business-like appearance of the Indiana National Guard units was the cause of the wide comment. Those among the spectators who remembered the badly drilled, poorly equipped militia units of a few years ago were pleasantly surprised by the up-to-date, complete equipIment of the guard units. They ■marched with a precision comparlable to that of the splendid • appearing regular army infantry and artillery units from Ft. Benjamin Harrison. Crowds Line Route Large crowds lined the route of the parade and the spectators stuck to the end. despite the cold drizzle which fell throughout the afternoon. The crowd was not a demonstrative one. the only spontaneous outbrust of applause coming when twenty-one [veterans of the Civil War, feeble in ■body but with courage unabated, ■marched by, undaunted by the soakling rain.

CIVIC LEADERS ASK FOR NEW MARKET HOIK John F, White Gives Reasons to Councilmen at Joint Meeting. Members of the city market commission. appointed by Mayor Shank three years ago, met with city councilmen and members of the Indianapolis Federation of Community Civic Clubs at the Chamber *of Commerce Friday night and debated the question of whether the city should build anew market house or remodel the present one. John F. White, of the market commission, declared the whole issue was "market or no market,” and read a resolution adopted by civic clubs, opposing the expenditure of $189,000 on the old structure and urging a complete new market house. Real Development Denied “There isn't a councilman here that would dare go before the public opposed to a market,” White said. "What the federation* wants is to see a market plan developed over a period of years. We believe that expenditure on the old building now would be only a waste of money, as it would all have to be torn out when anew market was built.” Walter Wise, council president, said the city could not afford to enter into any million-dollar market project at this time, and asked if an improved market house wasn’t better than none at all. No Expense, Says White "I can’t understand why every one says the city can’t afford it," White retorted. ‘lt won't cost the city anything. Anew market will pay for Itself in twenty years." "The real prohlem at the market house is management,” said Wise. “Anew buMding will not remedy it.” White admitted that management was vital, but doubted “if city officials had the courage to take their hands off the money and establish a real management.” “The city council.” he said, "has full authority to fix conditions under which the market shall operate.” It was stated that the majority of the stall owners did hot want any improvement nt the market and preferred to be let aione. This brought a retort that that was the whole attitude at the market house —that it was created for the standowners and not for the public.
