In the 1930 freshman handbook which is being sent to all women students who will enter Indiana university for the first time this fall. President W. L. Bryan of the university has the following message for new co-eds: “Almost every one of you begins his life occupation with some habits of work which are slow, ineffective and wasteful. You have mental habits analogous to the child trick of counting upon your fingers, instead of using the far swifter tables of arithmetic. You have habits analogous to digging out sentences with a dictionary and grammar, instead of having gained free power to read. You have habits such aa letting part of your mind wander at play while the rest is pretending to work. You have habits such as working with the hurry and bustle of ants, without foresight, without plan. If you have such habits of work as these and try to go through life with them, you can never be a master workman. You may labor and sweat, but your years of effort will leave you an ineffective drudge. I counsel you to take stock of your bad habits of work, and be rid of ; them.” The land book is dedicated to the w omen of the class of 1924, and is %>

BROTHER OF SLAIN EDITOR IN CRUSADE

Mayor Jesse Mellett Plans Finish Fight on Liquor at Anderson. Bu Times Soecial ANDERSON, Ind., Aug. 23. Police are centering their warfare against the liquor traffic with raids on homes suspected of containing home brew. Five more raids have increased the week’s total to twen-ty-five.

Mayor Jesse Mellett has instructed Police Chief Alvin Riggs to continue raids on homes and other places until the city is bone dry. The mayor declares serving search warrants issued in city court is a weak procedure which defeats the purpose of the prohibition law. and he intends to carry out “strong aim” methods until liquor in Anderson is “a thing of the past.” Mayor Mellett says he will carry out an uncompromising battle on bootlegging and gambling because, if for no other reason, his brother, Don Mellett, was slain by gangsters to stop a crusade against crime which he conducted while editor of the Canton (O.)

Sledge Hammer Method Favored to Enforce Law BY JESSE H. MELLETT M*7r of Ander*on. Ind. (Written for the United Press > ANDERSON, Ind., Aug. 23.—1 believe that laws are made to be obeyed by all citizens. Cnme conditions are a direct result of a determination of a great number of citizens to violate the law as they please and the failure of public officials to enforce the law. This is especially applicable to enforcement of the liquor law, which can be enforced as well as any other, If public officials are honest and determined to enforce it. These conditions exist throughout the United States today as a direct result in most cases of the dishonesty of public officials—and this means from Washington clear down. Defines Theory On the other hand it is my theory that the citizens of a community are entitled to the service and protection of the law enforcement bodies of our government and it should be unnecessary for any locality to be compelled to dedicate all the time of the law enforcement body to guarding and watching a few establishments which are a disgrace to the community. In these places practically all crimes are conceived and brooded. It is a sad admission of the United States government and the government of every city and state that they can not enforce the law. It is my theory that the law can be enforced, in Chicago and in every other part of the United States. To the citizens of Anderson I made a pledge that I would enforce the law and such efforts have been made that practically all of the bootleggers have quit business. Raids Without Results Raid upon raid has been made upon men and establishments which defied the law. Officers were met by a man at their doors looking through a peep-hole. When the raiders got in, the evidence had been destroyed. This condition existed until I, as mayor, instructed the police chief to take a sufficient squad with sledge hammers and break up these places. They were given to under - stand that the same thing will occur as long as they persist in violating the law. I also believe that the citizens of any community should have the right and authority, by an established means, to discharge the head of the law enforcement department, upon his failure to fulfill the duties j of his office and upon his betrayal of the public trust.

POISON WATER KILLSCATTLE Cyanide From Newcastle Plant Found by Analysts. Bu Times Special NEWCASTLE, Ind., Aug. 23.
