RADIO RIOT IS * INCREASED WITH MAHONS More Than 600 Others Are in Line to Be Licensed — Grief for Fans. Timet Washinoton Bureau. 1322 New York Avenue WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.— The radio riot is growing. Forty-two new broadcasting stations have been licensed since July 1. More than 600 others, planned or under construction, are in line to be licensed when completed. Meanwhile, at least thirty old stations have added to the confusion by arbitrarily changing the wave lengths assigned to them by the Commerce Department. “What will be the result of all this?’’ W. L. Downey, Federal radio official, asserted today, “probably will be plain by the end of September. The autumn broadcasting should begin in earnest about that time. If there is real confusion in the ether it will show when the stations are all doing their best and when the listeners, back from their vacations, are all tuning In. Since the ruling of Attorney General Sargent that the Commerce Department had no power to enforce Br rules as promulgated by Secretary Hoover, the radio situation has been practically without any Federal supervision. Any station can change its wave length or increase its power at any time, and despite the fact that saturation was believed reached months ago, new stations can obtain licenses as fast as completed. Among new stations licensed since July 1 are; KGCB, Wallace Radio Institute, Oklahoma City. WKBF, Noble B. Watson, Indianapolis. KTUE, TTphalt Electric. Boston. KNOCKED DOWN BY AUTO Man Injured—Two Girls Also Hurt When Struck By Machines. Charles Reel, 34. of 1138 Bates St.. was knocked down by the machine of Carl Surry, 324 N. Wallace St., at New York and Davidson Sts., this morning and taken to city hospital with a possible skull fracture, severe cuts and bruises and a broken collar bone. Charlotte Pritchet, 14, of 735 W. New York St., was struck by a hit and run driver at Stop 7, Madison Rd., Thursday night. She was knocked to the pavement and badly cut and bruised. The license of the machine showed it to be an reported stolen. Helen Dixon, 8, 936 Hosbrook St., was slightly injured when she fell in tlhe path of a machine driven by Cleoves Harding, 719 JBuehanan St. JUSTICE TRIUMPHANT Official Finds T,ad In New AutoHolds Him for Police. Walter Glass, justice of peace, 152 E. Court St., was anything, but peaceful when he found a youth in his brand new car at Michigan and New Jersey Sts., Thursday night. A battle ensued in which the justice was triumphant. He held the youth, who gave his name as Harold Tanner, 19, of 1116 N. Warman Ave., for police on charges of assault and battery and vagrancy. The building and land values of West. Point military academy total about $25,000,000.

G A yours be shapely,^

•T DO NOT want to be thin! I Just A want to be my right weight! I want these hollows filled out. I Just want enough firm, plump flesh on my bones to fill out my figure." Os course you do. You want a figure that you can drape your clothes on—not Just hang them on! What’s the use of having pretty clothes, if they Just hang on you? And what would you say if you were told you fcould have the figure you want? A graceful, well rounded body—firm, solid flesh— enough —just your right weight? You’d be mighty happy, wouldn’t you? Well, then, be happy because you can have it! Put plenty of red cells in your blood and watch your weight go up to where you want it! That’s what’s the matter with you! Your blood is impoverished. You need more rich, red blood. S. S. S. is the thing to put red blood in your system. S. S. S. helps Nature build red-blood-cells by the millions. You just try S. S. S. and watch how quickly you begin to fill out your clothes. Notice your skin clear of unsightly , blemishes your up- f petite increase —f ff f ] strength come tol j) j l flabby muscles and Atm and vigor fill Bur whole system. It’s red blood that does It. And S. S. S. surely helps Nature build that red blood. S. S. S. is sold by all flrqg stores. The larger bottle is more economical.

HAMSTRINGING OF INDUSTRY IS SCORED (Continued From Page 1) sius L. Hogle, who became a commissioner this year, would bring suit to quiet title to the one-third acre. County Attorney Schuyler A. Haas, Republican chairman of the Seventh district, and Coffin man, said: , “I cannot discuss that matter. I am merely In the employe of the county commissioners and I act as they direct. I may have my personal views on such matters, but I carry out the orders of the commissioners!’’ Expressions from leading business men: O. B. ILES, President International Machine Tool Company —Indianapolis should encourage, not discourage, the industries we have here as well as new ones. We can never expoct this city to progress unless we give proper cooperation to our industries. The loss of Fairhanks-Morse to Indianapolis would be as much 1033 to our prestige throughout the country as a live,, progressive city, as the loss of the industry Itself. Something should be done immediately to remove. If possible, all doubt as to our retaining this important industry in Indianapolis. * * * W. B. HARDING, President G. &. J. Tire Company—As chairman of new industries committee of the C. of C. when thi:; land was bought by the Fairbanks-Morse Company, I am thoroughly familiar with all the details of the transaction. For Indianapolis to mean anything we must not only keep the Industries we have but secure new ones as well. If conditions such as these are tolerated —and they must not be—then the growth of Indianapolis is dead. * * • H. L. DITHMER, President Polar Ice and Fuel Company—The loss of an industry like Fairbank3-Morse means as much to Indianapolis as the loss of one of Its largest and best customers would mean to a business concern. I don’t advocate giving money or land to induce 4 new and untried industry to locate in Indianapolis. But here is a large and prosperous industry already 'located and established in our city, that buys unproductive land from the county at a fair value —which land automatically becomes a revenue producer for the county by being entered on tax records. An Industry that buys large quantities of goods in Indianapolis. Its pay roll distributes, several hundred thousands of dollars every year among skilled employes, who, in turn, fill up many houses that would otherwise be vacant; who also buy all their furniture, household supplies, etc., in Indianapolis and deposit their savings in Indianapolis banks or savings ifistitutions. Here, too, is an institution that helps pay the expenses of our city and county government through the thousands of dollars which it pays into the county treasury every year. I don’t know who is to blame for the delay of almost three years in giving Fuirbanks-Morse the property which they bought in good faith. I do know that it will be a serious loss to the city of Indianapolis if we lose this splendid industry, and certainly, should that happen, some one will be to blame, v \ ' * * DICK MILLER, President. City Trust Company —It Is such unheard of practices as this that is stifling the business activity of the community. We are trying our best to build up the city and seeking to unify endeavor and accomplishment for the well-being of all. It is detrimental to have political prejudices enter our commercial affairs and we must unite to forever stamp out such activity. The Times is to be commended for the stand it is taking. ,

ABANDONMENT OF MARKET FAVORED Engineering Body Committee Favors Branches. Establishment of regional markets and abandonment of the city market were suggested in a report of a special committee of the Indianapolis Engineering Society submitted Thursday. The report recommends that only perishable food be sold at the market. leaving the handling of staple commodities to usual re’tailers. The committee contended that the market raises prices elsewhere, yields Insufficient income, is too far away from the consumer, is not a direct producer-to-consumer utility, causes congestion and reduces good service at groceries. Beneficial features of the market, the committee found, are that It provides greater variety, l has lower prices, serves from 10,600 to 40,000 customers and is one of the sights of the city.
