Bv United Press NEW YORK, June 14.—Both railroad and industrial averages at new high ground on the recovery and many constructive items in business news over the week-end, sentiment in the financial community at the start of the new week was more optimistic than at any time since the sharp decline of February and March. Wall Street was particularly impressed by the interview given out by Henry Ford in which he predicted a pick up in trade. Another indication of the favorable conditions •listing in the automobile industry as the way'reports by General Motors dealers of their sales to the public, which aggregated 141,651 cars and trucks setting anew high mark in the company’s history. Profit-taking in Steel, General Motors and other pivotal industrials, which were off, fractionally from their morning highs, was off-set by spirited buying in oils and specialties around noon. Shorts in Savage Arms were badly punished, the stock gaining 2% to 84 on light transactions.

CHICAGO CAUSES Al,l EOSS ON LAKESjCFARGE Diversion of Water Ruining Navigation, Seriate is Told. By United Press WASHINGTON, June 14.—The diversion of water from the Great Lakes by Chicago will damage navigation of the entire Great Lakes region, Theodore Burton, Ohio, told the Senate Commerce Committee today as hearings were resumed on the rivers and harbors bill. (The bill authorizes the Illinois river project involving diversion of water from Lake Michigan.) The total damage to commerce and. industry of the Great Lakes region| caused by the lowering of the lake levels due to iack of rainfall and diversion, Burton estimated at $30,000,000. Worse Than Drouth The lack of rafhfall, he pointed out, does not constitute a permanent injury, but diversion does. The lakes have fallen forty inches since 1918, Burton said, and boats which could carry 15,000 tons now axe able to load only 3,000 tons, beJnise of the shallowness of the at the docks. The recessionof the water has caused piling beneath the docks to rot away. Intake pipes for city water for many lake communities are now.out of water. Summer resorts have been, hit hard, the water receding as much as twenty rods from its former shore line, leaving a beach of soft mud and ruining hotel and resort business. Burton pointed out. Corrective work, Burton said, will not remedy the situation. At the present time every inch decrease in the level means a loss of 500,000 tons of shipping, he said. The Chicago diversion will permanently lower the lake six inches, causing a definite loss to shipping of 3,000,000 tons of shipping, or $30,000,000. COLLEGE HEARS YORK By Times Special UPLAND.

BV United Press CHICAGO, June 14. —Today's closing grain prices were all below Saturday’s ( final figures, although in some cases they marked a slight rise over the opening figures. Trading was active and prices fluctuated within . range of about 2 cents throughout the day. Tlie weather continued to be the dominating influence in the pits. The report of excellent rains over the entire wheat belt, save North Dakota, where further moisture is still needed, caused considerable selling and a drop in prices, but most of the dip was recorded on publication of the decrease in the valuable supply which amounted to 2,652,000 bushels —or about twice as much as was expected, and caused extensive short coverings. Cash prices were steady here, but weer about a/cent lower in Kansas City. Com was under* pressure throughout the day and the closing figures were sharply below those of Saturday. The favorable growing conditions. large receipts and 2,112,000 bushels increase in the visible supply of this grain were chief factors responsible for the slump of price levels. Although, oats lost fractionally in all positions this pit easily maintained the strongest tone on the floor. The heavy hog receipts at the' Union Stockyards as well as the slump in corn prices proved bearish tot provisions and they closed lower. Chicago Grain Table —.Tune 14— WHEAT— Prer. Open. High. Low.

BONE-DRY LAW AUTHOR URGES AIDJJATTLE Declares Public Is Facing Crisis —Praises Shumaker. Bu Times Special DUPONT, Ind., June 14.—T0 lose what has been gained prohibition would be worse than a calajnity and a “crime against God and humanity," declared Frank E. Wright, author of the Indiana Wright bone-dry law, Sunday at an interdenominational gathering here. Wright, one of many speakers addressing church meetings over the State under Anti-Saloon League auspices, declared the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution to tm the world's greatest piece of constructive legislation, j Wright, a Republican, nominee for State representative from Marion 1 County, said he spoke for the league every Sunday because of hatred for “demon rurh^'* Biggest Question “The temperance problem is the biggest question before the American public. We are facing a crisis. I Liquor interests never before since prohibition have been so encouraged over the fight to get back legalized liquor traffic," said Wright. “Wet forces are using every tool of ’unprincipled men' to spread vicious propaganda, but we must not compromise. In fifty years we will look back on the legalized liquor traffic as we do on black slavery today.” Wright said the present Congress is dry, but pointed out “the danger lof liquor interests electing a wet Congress next time." Praises Shumaker He characterized Dr. Edward S. Shumaker, league superintendent, as a “grand, good man, who knows he is right and is unafraid of the highest authority.” Shumaker and Jesse E. Martin and Ethen A. Miles, legal aids of the league, have been cited by State Supreme Court on ■ contempt charges. j “Some of the younger prosecutors j tell me they look on the league's attorneys almost as fathers and welI come their assistance in tion of liquor cases,’’ Wright declared. Wright believes the time is near when the law will be enforced to the letter, with high type men serving as enforcement officers. An awakened civic* consciousness which wijl force courts to sentence runi runhers to the limit is needed, he said. Wright asked the church people | to contribute the "sinews of war” | to allow the enemies of “defnon rum" I to wage their war against the’move ; to modify the Volstead act. ASKS PROOF OF CANAL OWNERSHIP Council Head Claims Stream Reverted to City. Boynton J. Moore, city council president, and sponsor of a move- ; mem to fill the canal from Broad | Ripple to the business district, today challenged the Indianapolis Water Company t<“ prove its ownership of the stream. “We contend the canal reverted to the city when it ceased to be used as a carrier of water traffic, and can find nothing in the records to justify the water company’s owner- | ship,” said Moore. "Hamilton and I Madison County authorities fUled that part of the same Canal in their boundaries.” Moore charged also that commercial concerns other than the water company are using Vhe canal to make power.

U; S. IS FACING HUMILIATION IN PEACE COVE ROLE Tacna-Arica Proceedings on Vorge of Blowing Up With a Bang. By William Philip Simms, Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June 14—Nothing short of a miracle can now save the United States from one of the most humiliating diplomatic defeats in its history. The Tacna-Arica proceedings are on the verge of hipwing up with a loud hang, and nobody here, from President Coolidge down to the interested observer, seems able to suggest any way to head off the explo sion. Maybe “Coolidge luck” can do it, but not unless it Is especially good and works fast. Otherwise the State Department here v/ill have to admit defeat and either throw up the sponge entirely or suggest a LatinAmerican arbitration board to iron out the difficulties. For forty odd years Chile and Peru have been at daggers drawn ovei* the provinces of Taena and Arica, rich in'nitrates. Something had to be done for the sake of pellce. The Washington Administration could not hear of the two countries taking their troubles to the League of Nations. So President Coolidge became sole arbitrator and as such decided —-or rather the then Secretary of State Hughes decided for him —to let the inhabitants of the disputed province decide for themselves, by vote, whether they would be Chileans or Peruvians. „ Here was the fundamental blunder. The time for a. fair plebiscite had passed *y at least twenty years. The row started back in 1883. Chile licked Peru in a war and occupied Taena and Arica. By treaty, however, Chile agreed to allow a plebiscite at the end of ten years. But when the ten years were up there was no plebiscite. Chile stalled. Also she sent in settlers. And generally she made things hot for the Peruvians, many of whom left the country. Taena and Arica now are thoroughly Chileanized, making a fair plebiscite impossible. General Pershing was sent to supervise the show, but, after months of effort, he gave up the job. The Chileans, it was said, were maintaining a sort of reign of terror in the region so that Peruvians were afraid to vote. General Lassiter succeeded Geq- ( eral Pershing. It is understood here today that he has reported a plebiscite is hopeless. 10-21-YEAR TERM GIVEN Young Man. Alleged Bandit. Found Guilty—Companion Charged. Preston Wilson, 23. found guilty today by Criminal Judge James A. Collins on a charge of robbery, was fined SI,OOO and costs and sentenced ten to twenty-one years at the Indiana Reformatory. Wilson and Janies O'Fallon of Brooklyn, N. Y„ are alleged to have heid up a north side filling station and escaped with $42 in cash and some checks. Judge Collins took t*he case against O’Fallon under advisement until Saturday. While Wilson was said to have a bad record, the officers* failed to present any police record against O'Fallon. O'Fallon denied ever being in any serious trouble before. Both were charged with robbery and grand larceny.

LITILE HARMONY BETWEEN COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Democratic Member Asserts He Did Not Go With Others on Trips. Harmony between the two Republican minority members of the hoard of county commissioners and John C. MoCloskey, Democratic minority member, has been lacking for several months, it was admitted today by McCloskey. The Democratic member declared he did not like the recent report that he and the other two commissioners visited Sunnystde Tuberous lo.'is Sanitarium and other county institutions together. He asserted he never had accompanied the other two on any occasion. . Did Not Tell Him “Last week when they left they never told me where they were goi%g,’’ he declared. “We do not have to inform McCloskey.” explained Cassius L. Hogle. who controls actions of the hoard" with Charles O/Sutton, president. Ijrst year McCloskey was ,hoard president and controlled its policies with John Kitley, Democrat, whom Hogle succeeded. “When Kitley and I were on the hoard we always took Sutton with us and consulted him on county problems.” said McCloskey. Seldom at Courthouse Hogle declared he could not inform McCloskey because he was seldom at the courhouse. and it was not his duty to telephone him at his office or at honje, he said. “Well, I'll not he responsible for any cts of the board so long as they refuse to consult me." said McCloskey. McCloskey said in a few days he will personally piake a tour of the county Institutions upon which to base his report. NEW SCHEDULE FOR DETECTIVES Revision to Increase Efficiency, Say Heads. Inspector Claude Worley and Detective Captain Jerry Kinney have arranged anew schedule for detectives. effective Tuesday, which it is believed will inci'ease effliciency of the department. A woman clerk will take detectives' reports in shorthand and type them, saving the officers considerable time. The thirty-five offiiyrs will not be given the hour and one-half for lunch as formerly, Kinney said. Part of the force will go to work at 8:15 a. m. apd quit at 5:15 instead of 6 p. m. Other teams will go on duty at 4:30 p. m. and work until midnight. One or two teams will work from midnight until 8:15 a. m., giving complete coverage for the twenty-four hours.

BAD WEATHER IN NEXT FEW YEARS SEEN BY EXPERT Marked Climatic Changes Affecting Crop Production Forecast. / Bu Times Special I CHICAGO, June 14—Pronounced' climatic changes which will affect crop production and human wel j fare throughout, the world are’ tucked up the weather man's sleeve 1 for the next few years, according 1 to Herbert J. Browne, ocean me* j teorologlst and long range weather' forecaster, for sunny' southern California is due for a 1 much colder winter and spring and' there wiH he a. marked increase in 1 seasonal rainfall, his marathon' predictions promise. The same will' hold true in U(ah, Nevada, arlzona' and New Mexico. Heavy Frosts Heavy frosts in the lase spring l xnd early fall will nip the com belt, I he forecasts, making it necessary sor 1 the development of earlier seed .com types if the nation is to continue saving the farmer by eating “more corn.” t The changes point toward lower temperatures in the northern zone with increased precipitation In the northwest spring wheat areas and in ’ the plateau regions west of the Racky Mountains. Cool springs and high precipitation are slated for the Gulf States. Browne offers evidence to show how he could handicap the ordinary weather forecasting bureau with a year or two and still win out in a weather prognostication race. It’s Just a simple trick of studying the; changes in solar radiation and Its effect In changing the surface temperatures over the oceans. From these solar changes he sayd he can reduce inevitable changes in temperature and precipitation over the continents. 60,000 Years Ago For further proof of his predio* tlons Browne has traced back 50,000 years to the last Ice age. The Ire age, he said, was due to a drop in solar radiation continued over a long period of thousands of years but within the maximum range of radiation which has been measured during the last twenty years by the astrophysical observatory of the Smithsonian Institute. "At the ljeginning of the retreat of the glacial cap there was a shift upward of the solar constant to two calories," he said. “This lasted for thousands of years and raised the tropical waters of the Atlantic to a maximum of 84 degrees, sent vast quantities of warmgd water against northern area of pack ice. induced the retreat of the ice cap first from Ireland and Great Britain in time cleared the North Sea of ice ami mefied the Scandinavian and north European ice pack."
