APARTMENT IS LIKELY SITE OF JUVENILE HOME County Council Will Be Asked for Appropriation of SIIO,OOO. County commissioners today considered purchase of an apartment at the northeast corner of New Jersey and Ohio streets as the new county juvenile detention home. The building, which commissioners inspected Thursday, and said might be remodeled to be used as the home, will be proposed to councilmen Monday for approval. The council will be asked to issue SIIO,OOO in bonds, either for construction of a home or purchase of a building. Closer to the courthouse than any of the other proposed sites, the New Jersey street site has an area of 33,637 feet, more than half of which could be converted into a playground. A three-story brick building stands on the lot having a lineal frontage on New Jersey street, of 172.5 feet and a frontage of 195 feet on Ohio street. Dow Vorhies announced the building and site could be purchased for $95,000. It is estimated that $14,000 would be necessary to remodel the present structure, mailing total cost $109,000 for anew home on the site. Thomas Gillis, commissioner, expressed opinion that “perhaps this was too much property to buy lor a juvenile home.” The building would afford seven apartments on each floor that could be remodeled into detention wards. There would be ample room oh the first floor for a juvenile court room, commissioners said. STATE HEALTH CHIEF IS OUT FOR BLOOD Or. King Reeks Cultures From Infantile Faralysis Victims. Dr. William F. King, director of the state health department, is “out lor blood.” In a circular letter sent to secretaries of Indiana county medical associations he asked cb-operation of physicians in obtaining it.

Logansport Brewery Will Be Remodeled for Beer Return

Owners Ask for Bids, Plan to Be Ready When Brew Is Legalized. BY CHARLES E. CARLL LOGANSPORT, Ind., March 4. Beer! In this city, which recently raised its head from a sea of financial depression and now has three banks functioning, another note of optimism has been sounded in the fourletter word that spells the end of rigid prohibition. Within a few weeks $15,000 will be spent for remodeling the old, battered building of the Columbia Brewing Company. Announcement that the financial backers believe beer will return — soon, perhaps—was made by the George D. Schmidt Company of Chicago. Getting Ready for Beer “We are getting ready for the return of beer,” Joseph Schmittel, company representative said in conference with newspaper men. “We don’t think beer will be here overnight, but we are so sure it’s coming that we’re ready to spend the money.” Local contractors, who will employ Logansport labor, will bid this week on the brewery rebuilding. The first layout of $15,000 will provide only for building repairs. When the beer era appears to be dawning, the company probably will expend another SIO,OOO for equipment. The four-story brick brewery, which once was the site of one of Logansport’s largest single industries, has stood idle since the Volstead act was “enforced.” Building in Bad Shape Transfer companies and other firms leased sections of the building, but when the nation went dry not even near-beer was made in the brewery vats. The building is in poor condition. Brick work is crumbling, windows have been shattered and floors need rebuilding. Fires have left their marks on the forty-year-old structure. The only reminders of the old days when “Columbia beer” was a home and saloon password in this section of the state are the stationary outfittings and a few cases of quart bottles on the second floor. When the brewery is reconstructed, it will be the first in Indiana

to be remodeled in anticipation of an anti-thirst future. Six Logansport contracting firms are scheduled to bid on the building work. The contract winner will employ approximately fifty men for nearly three months to complete the job. The city is watching closely the progress of the brewery job. Logansport has felt the depression, as have other small cities throughout the state. And its residents are staking part I caught a bad cough. I saw my evening of evenings ruined!

OPERATION ON YOUNG GORILLA MAYSAVE LIFE Tube Inserted In Lung of N’Gi to Draw Fluid That Was Choking Him. ISij United Press WASHINGTON, March 4—N’Gi, the baby gorilla, has undergone the first major operation ever performed on one of his kind. Washington surgeons Thursday night entered the case of the black ape, who has been suffering with pneumonia, and drained his lung. An almost immediate improvement was noted following removal of a quart of fluid. The Washington Herald, which financed the operation, today described the unique scene in a copyrighted article. The operation was performed under a partial anesthetic. A make-

Then a steel tube was inserted into the lung, and the fluid, which had been slowly choking N’Gi to death, drained off. The tube was left in the incision to let any more liquid that might accumulate escape. After marked improvement in an oxygen chamber brought here at the Herald’s expense, N’Gi Thursday suffered an unaccountable relapse. X-ray. examination revealed the disturbing fluid and an operation was decided upon. PLAY TO BE REPEATED American Central Life Insurance Cos.
