Make It Convincing, Mr. Myers Walter Myers, defeated by Duvall for mayor, has fired the opening shot against the movement to adopt the City Manager plan of government. His argument has the merit of sincerity, since lie is not pleading to retain a job. True, the unintentional revelation that the political parties act together in a crisis may be embarrassing, but the peo pie are fast learning that fact anyway. Every # citizen will agree with Mr. Myers when lie brings this indictment against present conditions in city affairs: Conditions of city government in Indianapolis have become so deplorably bad that if an election were held tomorrow on the adoption of the city manager plan, it would carry overwhelmingly by a vote of sheer disgust. That something must be done everybody admits.” It is exactly, because ‘‘something must be done ’ that over 35,000 citizens signed their names to petition for a change in the form of government. A state of inind that borders on revolution, and such is the suggestion, is not the best asset of a city. To those who have studied the history of government in other cities which have been misruled and manhandled by officials are convinced that the City Manager government hits at the cause of the ■'deplorable conditions” by substituting business methods for political pull and making merit, not political trickery and astuteness, the basis of public service. Mr. Myers says that this is all a mistake and that file city managor system has in it a multitude of perils and menaces, contains elements of great danger and is altogether a mistake. And then he gives this as his remedy: ‘ The present law throws plenty of safeguards around the rights of citizens. Why not invoke a few impeachments or proceedings for removal? Surely all impeachment proceedings are not tinctured with politics. “Why not summon the substantial side of our citizenship to rise and assert with determination the high character that has made Indianapolis a great city and drive out those who have made us a laughing stock beyond the borders of the State and a stench in the nostrils here at home?” The city manager election will not be held until June. There are two months in which to apply this remedy which Mr. Myers suggests, and no one, of course, is better able to enforce the remedy than the doctor who prescribed it. If that be the remedy, let those who indorse My. Myers’ view of the situation and of the dangers of the city manager plan make the argument convincing by actually putting it into practice. Before June, if his argument holds, there could be impeachment of those officials who, says Mr. Myers, have made us a laughing stock abroad and a stench at home. Here is a job which should attract Mr. Myers and all others who are afraid that the people will rush to the changed form of government unless relief is given. If the officials who deserve impeachment are upmoved from office, if he succeeds in driving them from power, the people could then with less feeling compare the two systems without the ever present horrible example before them. Evidence in such cities as Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Kansas City have shown that the city manager plan has produced good results and has lifted the standard of public service. If, as Mr. Myers suggests, impeachment is the proper course in Indianapolis, why not let him demonstrate? An actual impeachment of the officials Mr. Myers holds responsible would be much more convincing than merely pointing out its possibilities. Just when can the impeaching be expected to v'.c.'t-- anti where? Let’s Junk It ..uy Lack in the distant past, when the men ■ho made Indiana 'the great and glorious State it is, were writing the constitution which they be--1 eved would preserve human liberty, they wrote: “But no bill shall be presented to the governor within two days next previous to tliff final adjournment of the general assembly." Tlie last legislature sent something like two hundred bills to the governor within those two days when the constitution written as the faith of the fathers and the foundation of every liberty in Indiana says no bills shall be presented. One of those bills raises the salaries of the judges of the supreme court to SIO,OOO a year, a rather attractive figure for even a supreme court judge who has been drawing about geventy-five per cent of that figure. Another of those bills, sent to the governor within those two days when the constitution, if English language means anything, says no bills shall he presented, provides that the City Manager form of government shall not b eeffective until all the mayors of Indiana shall have served out the terms of their elective offices. Perhaps those old fellows who wrote the Constitution did not know what they were trying to say. It may be all right to send bills to the governor in these closing days of a legislative session, especially in this era of political control, when it is necessary to hold up legislation until the last minute in order to drive and drag into line all the timid legislators w r ho might obey their consciences instead of the bosses. The men who are trying to get the city manager form of government n this city, to rid the” city of what the chief opponent of that system says is a deplorable condition of affairs, have contested the right of the legislature to send bills to the governor at the last minute. They insist that the constitution means what it says. What the supreme court says about that particular law Is of little moment. A city which has stood for Duvall for two years can probably worry along with him for two more years and yet escape revolution or bankrupicy ; But what the supreme court says about the constitution is important. It if decides that the constitution does not mean what it says about sending laws to the Governor in the final days of the legislative session, another supreme court may decide that it does not mean what Unsays about having a

governor or a legislature or a supreme court or the Bill of Rights. If the supreme court decides to junk these two lines of the constitution, what is to prevent the people from junking the rest of the constitution and set up a Mussolini to rule without Constitution and without laws at all? It is true that if the court decides that ‘lie legislature and its trick stuff has outraged the constitution, it might be necessary to hold a special session to pass laws regularly. That would be embarrassing, especially if the Legislature should decide to do a little investigating and pass a few bills that would offend Mr. Insull and the other utility owners. But if the constitution has become meaningless, why not junk all of it? Indiana has been on trial before. But never has it been on trial in a case where a precedent may determine not only the integrity of the constitution, but the willingness of the supreme court to say that the constitution does not apply when a legislature has violated its plain language in order to put more money into the pockets of its supreme court judges. What a wonderful opportunity to restore the faith of the people in the constitution as the protector of all their rights—and in the integrity of courts to ever and always keep inviolate that constitution from any invasion, whether it be legislative or executive. Have we reached the point where we ought to junk the whole constitution? What the Public Pays For The Department of Agriculture lias sent out as a public document 150,000 copies of the President’s veto message on the McNary-Haugen farm relief bill. The cost is borne by the taxpayers, through operating costs of the department. The only motive for such a wide distribution of the message at this time would seem to be political—to help President Coolidge and hit Governor Lowden,. the farm belt candidate for President. If political, there seems no reason why the public should pay the cost. A Match On Gasoline Covered Waters Speaking of apologetic Americans— The other day when all Italy was seething with excitement and suspicion over the burning of the heroic Commander Francesco de Pinedo’s ocean hopping plane, Ambassador Fletcher, our diplomatic representative at Rome, kicked in with this message to Premier Mussolini: “If a cowardly crime has been committed, the guilty will be discovered and severely punished.” And later, according to a copyrighted cable to the New York Times, he referred to the accident as “this attempted act of criminal folly.” Os course this fanned the flames. Already inclined to suspect the burning of the plane was the work of anti-Fascisti elements in this country, the ambassador's words seemed to the angry Italians to be confirmation of their suspicions. The ambassador spoke too soon—or rather he became apologetic too soon. For all the world now knows the fire was an accident, due to a foolish lad lighting his cigaret, then throwing the match into gasoline waters. , Which act is exactly what Ambassador Fletcher seems to have promptly duplicated at Rome. Saving the Mountains Our gratitude to Col. William B. Greeley, chief of the United States forest service. Greeley has just saved Mount Hood from commercial exploitation. He has refused to permit construction of an inclined cableway, rest rooms and lunch rooms, which would have meant a horde of tourists swarming up the mountain side. The material gain in tourist traffic would fail to compensate for the loss in esthetic and sentimental value of such an outstanding national feature, said Greeley. “I think we must consciously set up in our plans for the use of national forests the very important social service .rendered by retaining substantial areas available exclusively for uninotorized and non-mechanical form of recreation,” he added. "This is necessary, in order that the people may continue to obtain from these regions the same sort of vigorous recuperation and spiritual stimulus that they have afforded in the past.” Greeley could ‘ do no greater service to this country than to preserve the inspiration of its sublime mountains, remote and mysterious as nature made them. The Name’s the Thing Bids were opened this week by Secretary of the Navy Wilbur for construction of the first of the six new cruisers for the Navy. The fact that these contracts are about to be let and that the lowest bid for a single ship is $10,642,000 is causing little concern. Who gets the contract and for what amount isn't or much interest to citizens. But the naming of the cruisers! That's something to send telegrams to your Congressman about. Six cruisers are to be named and six gunboats, or twelve ships in all. Just how many cities have requested that their names be placed on these warships, not even Secreary Wilbur will divulge. Needless to say there are so many that even though some have been selected, the secretary Is taking the precaution to wait and announce them all at once in order that the protests may fall where they may, after it’s over. Letters have been written, telegrams have been sent and delegations have called. Chambers of Commerce have passed resolutions and so have the lunch clubs. Many a Congressman has spent many an hour arguing the cause of his district before the Navy secretary. All over the naming of a cruiser or a gunboat. \\ hat anew cruiser costs doesn’t matter. The name’s the thing. Low brows often can be found beneath high hats. Now that the coal miners have on strike, would it be too much to ask the gold diggers to follow suit?

THE JLN DIAJN AEOLUS Tii\lE!S

A The Struggles of Men With Men Still Fascinate Us.

By M. E. Trac y It is wise to think of something besides war, politics, and controversy once in a while. They are important and interesting, but they don’t tell the whole story. The struggles of men with men | sti U fascinate us, just as they have ! fascinated every generation ynce the | dawn of consciousness, but the struggles of men to conquer nature and overcome their own limitations count for more. Bloodless Battles The bloodless revolution of science is, and always has been, the great revolution. When you come down to brass tracks, freedom is a mater of knowledge rather than politics. As Wilson once said: “When who know each other can always find a way to agree.” Science, with Its improved means of travel, transport and communication is helping men to know each other. Bond of Peoples France and Italy have agreed to tunnel Mount Blanc. It seems as Inconsequential event at first thought, it is one of those things which not only draw people closer together, but Intrigue them with the glory of achievement. If we can ever interest civilization in doing big things, in expending its surplus wealth for heroic enterprises, such as flooding the Sahara desert, or diverting the Arctic current from the coast of New England, we shall have gone far toward diverting its excess energy into safer and more constructive channels. But for the excess energy which can find no appealing and romantic cause to serve, there would be no such continuous clamor for strife and conflict. Killing for 'Kick' Youth demands a “kick” out of life, and with entire justice, but there are ways to get it without bedeviling people. Loeb and Leopold sought to satisfy their thirst for adventure by killing little Bobby Franks. Putting aside the inexcusable cruelty of such an act, what did it hold by way of thrills compared to Babe Ruth's saving of young Sylvester? Or if you would have action, and not a scene in a sickroom, what did It hold compared to that supreme moment in Louis Maki's life, when he lit a fuse connected with twenty-two tons of dynamite last Tuesday, did 500 yards in two minutes and then looked back to see a mountain of iron collapse. Murder Thrill Old Cave men knew all the thrills that can come to a murderer, a thief or even a victorious general. What they didn’t know, and what "Ives modern life its title to romance, is the satisfaction of the doctor who saves a patient that couldn't have been saved a generation back; of the inventor who discovers anew method and machine, and of the engineer who builds something that was never built before. What Consolation? In the great war we killed soldiers more efficiently if not faster than the old boys could, but what consolation is there in that compared to the knowledge that our skill in medicine and sanitation has lengthened the average life by onchalf during the last century? Tradition teaches us to look on the biologist who traces a germ to its lair as leading a dry, uninteresting existence, but there is just as brilliant a light in his eye when he finds it as there was in Cain's when he slew Abel, and with far better reason. The man who discovers the cause of cancer, not to say the cure, will do more good and get more praise for it in a private way than any of the old-time conquerors. Tyranny of Disease Disease, whether of the mind or body, has been the worst tyrant that ever lorded it over the human race. Not only has it brought useless pain and suffering to innocent millions, but it has played pranks with the fate of empires. In connection with the campaign now under way in New York to finance a great cancer clinic, Dr. George Stewart says that this malady was indirectly responsible for the World War. He says that the ex-kaiser’s father died from it in his prime, that he was a man of democratic leaning and that if he had lived, militarism could hardly have attained the hold on Germany it did. McLaurin’s “Post Mortem” and “Mere Mortals” express the same thought with many vivid illustrations. There can be no freedom without health, and it can never mean what it ought without comforts, conveniences and increased power which science is bringing to man through bloodless revolution. There is romance, adventure, thrills and everything else to satisfy ambition in the constructive work which accumulated knowledge makes possible. The young people of today no longer need to seek the unconventional, not to say the evil, side of life to get a “kick” out of it. Could you give me the name of three or four leading works on the life of Catherine the Great of Russia? Catherine the Great, by Catherine Anthony; The Life of Catherine 11, by W. Tookes: The Romance of an Empress, by Waliszewski; Courtships of Catherine the Great, by Seigeant, and Catherine 11, by Bury. What is the speed of light? 186,324 miles per second.

Exhibit in Temperamental Extremes in Nature on View at Art Institute

The two new exhibitions that are hung in two galleries at the John Herron Art Institute represent the temperamental extremes in the interpretations of nature. William Ritschel is conscious of the savage power that rocks the waves and drives the clouds, and is latent in the round limbs of the brown skinned natives of the southern seas. Max Baum smiles througli his paintings the placid smile of one who knows the quiet peace of sunfilled days, and to whom life is an ordered pattern of rich color and serene depth. Bohm shows enormous reserve in all that has come from his brush—he boldly eliminates whatever is small and unessential, and even in the presentment of movement and the intensity of crowded

Topic for Holy Week “THE TRIUMPHANT SPIRIT” Wednesday “Love Finds Peace In the Midst of Anguish” SCRIPTURE: Read Luke 22: r 35-46. “And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as It were great drops of blood” (Lk. 22:44). “Peace I leave with you: my peace I give unto you” (Jn. 13:27). See —Romans 8:18; Philippians 4: 11-13; I Peter 4:12. MEDITATION: Jesus had peace within through .all the oppositions of Galilee and Judea. The sublime triumph, however, came in His passion, May it be that there are Gethsemanes for me, then “breathe on me, breath of God,” the peace that passeth knowledge. “Son of Man, I shall only get thy peace by moving in thy sphere. Thy peace came to thee by going where thy Father sent thee, thou didst not get it first and then go into Gethsemane; it was in Gethsemane thou didst find it.” HYMN: Beneath the cross of Jesue I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land, A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From the burning of the noontide heat. And the burden of the day. 1 take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding place; I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face. — Content to let the world go by, To know no gain nor loss. My sinful self only shame, My glory all the cross. —Elizabeth C. Clephane, (1830-1869). PRAYER: Pray for peace within: those making Christian decision; our community. Collect—Our Father in heaven, whose patience knows no bounds, we thank Thee for the oncoming of Thy kingdom in the world, and for the means of grace in our lives. We bless Thee for the Son of Man; serving in Galilee, loving in Judea, triumphing in Gethsemane, atoning on Calvary and rising from the grave. We rejoice in our redemption through Him and in the hope of immortality brought to light by Him. Yet in our weakness we have set our hearts on things on the earth. We have thought success better than righteousness and ease desirable above service. In Thy patience brood over our dull spirits till love awakens in us. We commit ourselves to the Son of jMan in holy living and loving serv/;e, -for His name’s sake. Amen.

effort, as in the laughing, straining “Norseman,” there is the spirit of inner serenity, the joyousness of richness and harmony. Many of Ritschel’s canvasses celebrate the wild vyash of the sea. Often he shows a cold, cruel sea with the heavy swell of vast waves and the angry spatter of white foam. His dramatic instinct prompts him to paint the ancient cypress trees clinging to the rocky shore, their mutilated forms flung in gaunt despair against wind-tossed clouds. From liis wanderings in the South Seas he has brought to us vivid impressions of the lazy, colorful existence oLan alien race. They have a langurous charm, these studies of Tahltain girls, smooth skinned, coffee colored, their dark heads wreathed in flowers painted against a sun-flecked ground of flaming jungle green. Bernhard Frledlander, the designer and craftsman of the ritual objects now displayed in a case in Museum court is an artist whoso versatility has found expression in many fields other than jewelry making. His devoutly religious nature has led him into his present activity. Deeply interested in the ceremonies of the Hebrew church, he began making the ritual pieces for his own pleasure, but when his work was exhioited, commissions came to him. He was taught the trade of goldsmithing as a boy in Poland. When liis time came for service in the Russian army he passed the entire time of his service in the Caucasus or Crimea. It was here that he became interested in Oriental art, particularly the inlaying of metal in another metal or in wood. His ebony pieces inlaid with silver nre among the most beautiful in the present exhibition. The Diebener Edition, an export review for jewelry published in Amsterdam, says of Frledlander: “What places this artist in a sphere beyond the reach of the m/re worker in applied art is his deep feeling for religion, and his genial powers of giving expression to his inward spiritual life in the finished work of his hands.” The candelabra, the goblets, the large tablet, the wine jug—every piece in the collection shows dignity and grace of design, sympathetic interpretation of form, and beautifully modeled surfaces. The Modern French Prints are in-terest-compelling in their determined simplicity. They stress one point of view and give emphasis as direct-

From now on, some of the twelve questions in “Your Brain's Daily Dozen” will pertain to Indianapolis or Indiana. Since today is the 184th anniversary of the birth of Thomas Jefferson these questions are in keeping. The correct answers appear on page 16: 1. Who will make the principal Jefferson birthday address in Indianapolis today? 2. Where is the Jefferson statue in Indianapolis? 3. What famous political document is Jefferson credited with writing? 4. Who preceded Jefferson as President? 5. During Jefferson's administration, how was the territory of the United States vastly increased? 6. What is the name of the Jefferson home in Virginia? 7. Who was his lea'ding opponent for the presidency in his first campaign? 8. What prominent public office did Jefferson hold during Washington’s presidency? 9. How did the phrase, “Jeffersonian simplicity,” originate?’ 30.. What present-day political party traces ts lineage back to Jefferson? 11. What is Jefferson's number In the succession of Presidents? 12. What other ex-President died on the same day Jefferson died?

ly as it is possible for the human mind and the physical hand to do. They have a charm, a naive variety, that make them memorable. The Public School exhibition now in Gallery 1, is really impressive in its scope and its high standard of excellence. Free illustration, design, applied design, stenciling, block printing and press work are all of finished workmanship. To students of the older generations, the skill of these young artists speaks a modern maturity of mind that is far in advance of the fumhbling efforts of an earlier day. Freshness of handling, good color, and effective drawing are used to express sprightly and complicated ideas in a manner that bespeaks a mature grasp of the technical problems of art expression. Indianapolis theaters today offer: “Square Crooks” at English’s; Sylvia CJark at Keith s; Elaine Se.'enaders at the Lyric; Sahara Grotto at the Palace; "Lovers” at the Ohio; "Blonde Saint” at the Uptown: “Evening Clothes” at the Apollo; “Hey, Hey. Cowboy” at the Isis and burlesque at the Mutual.

To the Editor: The conscious mind of man is the outward expression of the inward soul. The human, earthly body is only the mortal frame or temple-for the inward soul. The soul of man is a non-atomic, ethereal body, which is separated and independent from the mortal or earthly body. It is immortal because it is incorporeal, and it has the independent power of self motion. There can be no arrangement of matter, tissue or configuration of the earthly body which can be conceived of as the originator of this free and voluntary movement of what we call the conscious mind.. We must, therefore, come to the conclusion that there are two distinct existences of life in the temple of man. The soul being invisible, incorporeal and indissoluable Is therefore immortal. The soul, or conscious mind, preserves the integrity amid the decay of the human system. It may be dependent for its manifestation upon the material, earthly tissues, organs, etc., of the human system, but it has a self-applied volition and stato all of its own. It is essentially self-active on all parts and members of our temple, with a vital force that all action which would displace it. The conscious mind, or soul, Is de pendent upon God for what it Is, but as created by him, it is endowed with certain spontaneous volition which take form In thoughts and emotions. The mortal man, though dying in his mortal state, Is dying full of life, for his immortal soul liveth. Therefore the soul Is the keystone to the arch of the human, earthly temple of man. The soul of man Illuminates the human, mental system as the water lily is a beacon of light to and beauty to muddy, slimy waters as it unfurls its beautiful petals and fragrance all of its own, LEWIS HEIDT.
