‘QUIT GOSSIPING ABOUT banks: STOREN URGES State Treasurer Pleads for Restored Confidence in institutions. Plea for restoration of confidence in Hoo6ier banking and business institutions was made today by William Storen, state treasurer. A malicious whispering campaign, carried on, he said, by persons who know nothing about banks and never have had a banking connection, has wrought great havoc. His statement follows: '•During the year of 1931 some 1.35 banks have closed or merged, due, for the most part, to a lack of confidence of the people in each banking community. Community’s “Backbone” ■ A bank is the backbone of any community and gives, for practically no cost, more service than any other organized institution. “During such times as we are going through there should be a common spirit of helpfulness, and no person should lend himself or herself to false or misleading statements on the simple ground that he was informed so and so. “For in most cases the informant is only an idle gossiper, who never has had a banking connection and has little, if any, civic pride. “The man or woman, who gossips and whispers false rumors is doing what he or she can. unconsciously perhaps, to shake faith in our great business and banking institutions. Flails False Rumors “So let us start the new year by being a friend to our community in which we live, by discouraging false rumors, whispers, and insinuations, and help bring back the business and prosperity that was builded on faith, that we still may live and let live in a state that will prosper.” Storen also announced today that $150,000 in Liberty bonds have been turned over to him by the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland to guarantee the bond for that amount carried on state funds in the defunct Washington Bank and Trust Company. This is the ftrst time that such collateral has been posted with the state, he said. There were $210,000 in state funds in the Washington bank, deposited under the administration which preceded Storen.

CHARGED AS DRUNK AFTER WIFE BEATING Roomer Fire* Shotgun in Ceihng Trying to Protect Women. Subdued in an alleged attempt to beat his wife and two other women, Aubrey Karney, 919 East Sixteenth street, faces trial today on a drunkenness charge. During the alleged fight, a shotgun was discharged by Loval W. Fellows, a roomer, who police said attacked Karney as the latter threatened to kill the three women. A slug from the shotgun tore a hole in the ceiling. Karney's wife Lola, told police that her husband came home drunk and began arguing, and ran her and two sisters, Helen and Marie Haynes, into a bedroom after threatening to kill them. Fellows heard the noise and attempted to halt Karney. Karney fled from the home after the fight, but was captured at the home of a sister nearby. COLLEGE HEAD WARNS AGAINST REVOLUTION Earlham President Speaks at Silver Anniversary of Christamore Home. “Social progress lies in the path of evolution, and not revolution,” asserted Dr. William C. Dennis, president of Earlham college, Monday night at the silver anniversary dinner at Christamore house, Michigan and Trcmont streets. ‘Many serious thinkers tell us we need anew social order. Nevertheless we should not lose our sense of proportion,” Dr. Dennis warned. P. C. Reilly, president of the Christamore board of directors, presided at the celebration. Mrs. Olive D. Edwards, director of the house, and Miss Caroline Sweeney, president of Christamore Aid Society, gave reports. HOLD FIFTH SUSPECT rolire Accuse Man of Buying Cases of Clgarets Stolen From Cars, Fifth arrest in the police roundup of alleged looters of railroad freight cars was made today by Detectives Pat Roache and Louis FossqttL The suspect is Fred (.Pickles) O'Roark. 307 Agnes street, charged with receiving stolen goods as a result of the alleged purchase of cases of stolen cigarets.

Have Color in Cheeks If your skin is yellow—complexion pallid—tongue coated—appetite poor —you have a bad taste in your mouth—a lazy, no-good feeling—you should try Olive Tablets. Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets—a substitute for calomel—were prepared by Dr. Edwards after 20 years of study. Olive Tablets are a purely vegetable compound. Know them by their olive color. To have a clear, pink skin, bright eyes, no pimples, a feeling of buoyancy like childhood days, you must get at the cause. Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets act on the liver and bowels like calomel—yet have no dangerous after effects. They start the bile and help overcome constipation. Take nightly and not* the pleasing results.

BY BEN STERN END of another year leaves the Governor Leslie social lobby more strongly intrenched than before. It is a social lobby in the main composed of Dolly Gray, manager of the American Aggregates Corporation: Fred Cunningham, highway contractor, and his sister, Miss Dorothy Cunningham, national committeewoman from Indiana. If the Governor of Indiana were entitled to a guard of honor, he would be enabled to have one without cost to the taxpayers, for wherever you see Leslie he is sure to be flanked by the grenadier-like Fred and the übiquitous Dolly. It is a peculiar thing that Dolly returned to the Indiana scene shortly after Leslie became Governor. The head of the Aggregates company, who at one time had been chief engineer for the Indiana highway commission, left the state for Michigan several years ago, only to return upon the election of Leslie. M M K Simultaneous with his return and assumption of control of the Indiana plants of the American Aggregates Corporation, that concern began to become a dominating figure in state highway construction. Leslie became a regular guest of Gray and his employer, Fred Coppock, at the latter’s sporting camps soon after, and, of course, Cunningham also was present. The Governor, it has been learned, resents deeply an allusion to his various fishing and hunting trips with the pair, but in spite of criticism continues to be a guest. Not a finger was lifted by Gray in behalf of the highway commission when it was subject to attack in the last general assembly, yet there can be no doubt that his concern profits greatly from the twenty millions spent annually by the commission. But, after all, why cultivate the underlings when you are a friend of the “boss”? It must be remembered that approximately 90 per cent of the material used in construction of concrete roads is Aggregates’ (rock and boulder), whereas the base of a black top road is crushed stone. It is, therefore, to Gray’s interests to see that the commission specifies concrete for road construction. And concrete has been specified—even on projects where the commissioners thought that the black-top would be cheaper. But Dolly is in the aggregates business and a member of the social lobby. Tlie American Aggregates Corporation operates three plants in Indiana—at Indianapolis, Richmond and Logansport.. and it seems that 1 the district engineers in which they j are located have been strict in in- | sistence on adhering to specifica- i tions, or shall we say “unfriendly.” But let us talk about that Wednesday.
