.EAST ACCLAIMS NOOSIER FIGHT ON CORRUPTION Baltimore Sun and New York World Say Real Housecleaning Begun. Bu Timet Special WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.—Eastern newspapers comment favorably on the new trend of affairs in Indiana. Under the head, “Indiana Starts Housecleaning,” the New York World editorial says!*" . “Indiana has been slow in cleaning up the mess into which its politics has slid in the last few years. As yet it has not gone far, but it is making progress.” The Baltimore Sun, under the editorial head, “Cleaning up in Indiana," says: ‘ Cites Indictments "If punishment is a deterrent of crime, Indiana should be well along with its housecleaning, one Governor just out of Federal prison, his successor under indictment for conspiracy to commit bribery, the mayor of Indianapolis convicted of violating the corrupt practices act, a powerful ex-dragon of the Ku Klux tKlan serving a life sentence for Imurder and the head of the State Anti-Sa' m League under sentence for conu.npc of court. “This furnishes an example of ■tern justice hard to equal. If it be ■o unusual as to confirm belief that conditions must have been very bad, it gives assurance that there is a wholesome public sentiment in the State determined to -exact justice for betrayal of trust and violation of the law. Mob Psychology Cause ‘Much of Indiana’s troubles have bcon due to mob psychology, which shrewd rascals in the Ku-Klux Klan used successfully to feather their own nests and to the surrender, as the Attorney General ol the State declares, of the State political conscience to organized minorities the Klan and the Anti-Saloon League. Os course, supporters of the league do not want corruption and inefficiency in their government, but in their zeal for enforcement of one law they have been ready to let every other thing slide, just as in their devotion to the Klan its adherents cast aside obligation they owed the State." Milk Bottles Looted Bu I'uUeil Press BLUFFTON, Ind., Sept. 26. Emerson Graham and Donald Wqjpt, this city, and Roy Roller. Ft. Wayne,! eahe about 20, are in custody here charged with stealing money from milk bottles left outside homes awaiting arrival of * milk delivery . men. They were to be given a hear|ing today.

Talked about because of this

People talk about you when you have halitosis (unpleasant breath). Often they shun you. It is the unforgivable social offense that threatens friendships, jobs and even love affairs. # * * The one way to avoid such offense is to rinse the mouth with Listerine every day, and especially before meeting others. Immediately, Listerine removes every trace of unpleasant odor. Don’t fool yourself that you never have halitosis. Due to modern habits, it is all too common. Write for free book of etiquette.

FLYING BOOST FOR GUM British Prejudices Passes As Air Fassengers Get Habit Du United Press LONDON, Sept. 26.—Increased participation in flying by the public is beginning to break down the British prejudice against gumcheWing. Originally taken up by Royal Air Force pilots at the ret ommendation of the Air Ministry the habit of gum-chewing while in flight has been copied by passengers on the London to Paris air route. The reason for this custom is the discovery that the action of the jaws in gum-chewing keeps the air passages between the mouth and the inner-ear open and prevents deafness by changes in air; pressure at different altitudes.

SOLONS MADE AND UNMADE BYJHEELER Anti-Saloon League Czar Drove Defiant Senators y out of Office. ''Who will succeed V.'eyne B. Wheeler?” has become the question of the hour. Thi* U the second of flve articles discussing the eltv.atlon faced bv the AntiSaloon League In selecting the man. BY RODNEY DUTCHER Xf/A Her rice Writer WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.—“1 hope we can put Senator over in the primary," Wayne B. Wheeler once remarked to a close friend. "He’ll be drunk most of the time, but he’ll be sober enough to vote dry." This jocular remark, which referred to a recently departed Senator whose memory is so venerated that it would cause a fearful row to mention his name, was indicative of Wheeler’s methods. To Wheeler the cause of prohibition justified any means necessary tp its success. Poisoned alcohol, double jeopardy, defeat of distinguished and valuable Senators in favor of publicly “dry” but personally “wet" nonentities—Wheeler firmly believed that all these methods were ethical. He never expected a majority of personal drys in Congress and didn’t worry about it. Until the end, Wheeler devoted his great talents to defeating those senators, congressmen, governors and other officials who weren’t “right” with the league. Instances were innumerable. He forced the distinguished Senator Underwood of Alabama Into private life when Underwood refused to bow before him and repudiate his convictions. He tore Underwood’s machine to pieces and made him withdraw. Defeated Stanley When Senator Stanley of Kentucky attacked the league, a few blasts from Wheeler were enough to crumple his machine and elect the very dry Barkley, much to Stanley's astonisiunent. So with many others. The its oratorical “Battalion of Death” was always ready to tear Into a candidate's district and annihilate him. Often. Wheceler went himsblf and told the church folks what a bad, wicked man their representative was. Wheeler never bragged openly of his own power. He once went to President Harding and demanded that Harding stop drinking. If he didn't, he warned the President, the drys would not only prevent his renominatifn but would in the meantime kill his appointments in the Senate. Ilarding Gave In Harding capitulated. Although the league took a certain pride in this and still boasts a little. Wheeler had sense enough not to brag about it. The story leaked out through a member of the “Ohio gang.” The league never has had faith in Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, who Is in supreme command of all enforcement, but Wheeler always was too wise to cut loose on Mellon.

About six and a half years ago. Carter began research work in connection with anew oil burner principle, and about a year ago the first burners manufactured were placed on trial in various homes and buildings. The results were so successful that arrangements were completed for the manufacture of the burners. The burners are being made at the Ft. Wayne.

NEW FUNERAL ji HOME OPENED The new west side funeral honja of Shirley Brothers, located at 2002*t W. Michigan St., which was openeji last Tuesday evening to the publiJJ marks another milestone in the hi|| tory of service of the company. Thi structure has been built to suppßj the long-felt need of a complejfc funeral home for that section of tttn city. The exterior of the new funeral home is of stucco and frame construction, with casement windows across the entire front. Large double French doors open from the top of a broad outside stairway lead-i ing from the stairway into a reception room. From this room ancf consulting office adjoining It, the visitor steps into a well-lightecT, comfortable chapel. Arched openings unite the chapel into one large', home-llke room, at the front of which an alcove with dome ceiling has been provided for the casket and Its setting gives an unusually, artistic effect. All furnishings and draperies have been planned to make the new funeral home as home-like as possiblit and yet provide all of the con- 1 veniences of a modern mortuary. The growth of the Shirley firm proves the appreciation of the pub-3 lie for complete funeral service atf moderate prices. The history of th£’ company dates back to 1898, when A. E. Shirley had a west side establishment, and In 1899 O. N. Shirley was located on the east side. In 1909 L. J. Shirley, a younger brother, formed a partnership with O. N. Shirley, under the firm name of O. N. Shirley & Cos. In 1923 Walter L. Shirley, older son of O. N. Shirley, entered the business upon graduation from th,e School of Commerce and Adminis-r tration of the University of Chicago. Four branches are now operated in Indianapolis, with the central office and chapel at 944-946 N. Illinois St. All equipment is completely, motorized and of latest design. Tw<f ambulances are ready fer service any hour of the day or night.
