Sullivan’s special city market Investigating committee will begin its study at a meeting at 2 Tuesday. The committee met Wednesday afternoon in the safety board office and worked out a tentative plan of action. Plea of a delegation representing the market standholders’ association for representation on the committee by membership, or by an attorney, was denied A resolution was adopted welcoming any written suggestions. Those submitting suggestions will be given a hearing at a later date, it was said. Speakers Named The meeting Tuesday will be devoted to study of external conditions at tho market, including curb stands, proposed angle parking and other points. In addition to a standholders’ committee, Marketmaster Harry E. Springsteen, Traffic Captain Louis Johnson, and a representative of the Market Gardeners' Assocition will be invited to appear. Problems suggested for study by the committee were submitted by Charles R. Myers, safety board president. These included traffic conditions in the market vicinity, owning of four or more stands by one person, sanitary conditions, operation of seven restaurants in the market six days a week, improved ventilation, angle parking, improved sewage system, need of anew hot water plant for butchers and roof repairs. Only for Overflow Myers pointed out that the city code provides curb stands may be established only to care for overflow from inside the market. At this time there are thirty vacant inside stands, he said. Several suggestions also were contained in a letter from Dr. H. G. Morgan, health board secretary. He proposed keeping the market open six days a week, permitting angle parking on Market street, survey for anew sewer system, doing away with live poultry stands on Market street and eliminating of curb stands. Women Have Plan John F. White, committee chairman, asked committee members to enter into the market study with a thoroughly disinterested attitude, with the understanding that no large amount of money can be spent in making changes. Suggestion that the committee follow the example of housewives and make improvements at the market singly, instead of attempting wholesale changes, was made by Mrs. E. E. Eschbach, on the committee representing the Seventh District Federation of Women’s Clubs. Other committeemen who attended were: Council President Ernest C. Ropkey, Councilmen Leo F. Welch, Clarence Wheatley and James A. Houck, Mrs. C. A. James and Mrs. May Kynett, women's club representatives, and William F. Hurd, city building commissioner. DR.

“Grapevine news” from the younger generation have it that contract bridge, “strip” poker, and auto necking, have fallen by the wayside for ye olde parlor sports of “postoffice,” “blind man’s buff” and charades. But at Indiana Central college they play a sure-enough* game of "postoffice” that hasn’t a thing to do with dark rooms and postmasters behind portieres.

Lower Photo—When Miss Marcelle Smith, assistant postmistress, points to the door sign of “Mail’s not in,” she doesn’t mean a feminine “Yes.”

International administration of the United Mine Workers of America won another battle today, which, if lest, would have meant a reduction of $200,000 annually in its income. It occurred when anthracite miners of Pennsylvania were defeated in their only proposal before tho convention. This was to reduce from 50 cents to 40 cents the monthly per capita tax paid the international. Illinois insurgents stood solidly behind the anthracite miners from District 1 of Pennsylvania in their demands, and the debate rivaled in bitterness the attempts of the for-

mer to obtain home rule earlier in the convention. With this question out of the way, and only wage agreements to be disposed of, there is a possibility that the convention may adjourn at noon. Friday. Following the vote, a group of the Pennsylvania me \ left the hall under the leadership of Thomas Maloney of Wilkesbarre, who led the fight on the iloo r . They indicated however that they would return this afternoon. HeaVj artillery of the international officers lea by President John Lewis, Vice-President Philip Murray, Secretary Thomas Kennedy and Martin Brennan, president of District 9, joined in pleading for adoption of resolution committee report which would leave the matter with the international executive committee. Lewis declared that if the reduction of the international assessment were put through organization and membership work would be impaired seriously and its efficiency imperiled. “Because a handful of locals have been unable to solve their problems, are we to change the entire financial setup of the organization?” he asked. Brennan declared that to do this would play into the hands of the

coal operators, who desire organization activity to cease. “A commission can’t change the constitution,” declared Maloney. “Whatever is adopted here will stand for the next two years and all the commissions in the world won’t alter it.” Importance of the resolution to the rank and file was pointed out by Henry Mische of Nanticoke, Pa., w-ho assailed the international officials for not returning a more satisfactory report. He pointed out that the resolution “was adopted unanimously seveu months ago by the District 1 convention, and international officials have had plenty of time to study the propsition.” It was declared that local unions are bankrupt and with hundreds unemployed, an assessment would be too great an imposition. CRAPS SHOOTER ROBBED John Van Stan, 43, of 942 South Missouri street, bears severe knife wounds on his chin today as result of winning the “pot” in a craps game Wednesday night, according to police. He said he left the game with his winnings and was attacked by one of the craps shooters, who “rolled” him for the “pot,” then slashed him with a knife. Van Stan was treated at' city hospital.
