TAMMANY HAS HAD STRONG AID IN ROOSEVELT Democratic Rooseveltian Club Was ‘Stuffed’ to Tickle Ward Heelers. (Continued from Page One) rase. The Walker ca.se, of course, exceeds in importance any of these but its final decision has not yet been made. Whatever decision Roosevelt makes in the Walker matter will seriously affect him politically. Had the Governor put Walker out of office prior to the Democratic national convention. Roosevelt would have been strengthened in the western and southern democracy, but he would have lost the New York City organization completely, as well as Tammany's allies in upstate New York. Should Roosevelt fail to get the presidential nomination, he will undoubtedly run for Governor again next fall, and the belief among political strategists is that Roosevelt never will return to Albany if he throws the mayor out. He Removed Farley Thomas M. Farley, sheriff of New York county, one of the most powerful district leaders in the city and intimate of John F. Curry, was removed by the Governor on Feb. 24, last. Seabury, as a private citizen, filed the charges, all of which were ruled out by the Governor, exedpt that which related to Farley’s bank deposits far in excess of his salary. The sheriff could not explain them satisfactorily, and the Governor set forth the dictum that a public official must prove his personal, as well as his public, honesty. This dictum, it was assumed, would guide the Governor in future action on Tammany office holders. Farley had four subordinates in his office, two in particular with huge bank accounts, but they are still in office. Roosevelt, cushioned the fall for Tammany by appointing in Farley's place anew Tammany district leader, John E. Shcehy, who had just, won his spurs by ousting the Fifteenth assembly district chief, who was unfriendly to Curry. Wouldn't Oust McQuade When the city affairs committee, headed by Holmes and Wise, preferred charges against Sheriff James A. McQuade of Kings county, who also had large private bank accounts accumulated while he was register, the Governor declined to remove McQuade. Roosevelt held that voters of Kings county, since the transactions mentioned, had approved of Mo Quade by electing him sheriff. Roosevelt added that he, himself, w'ould not have voted for him. Holmes and Wise in a letter to the Governor criticised Roosevelt’s failure to act, and explained that at the time of the election no charges had been made against McQuade—that, in fact, the revelation of Mo Quade’s alleged wrong-doing was brought out by Seabury on the eve of election. Brooklyn voters had no chance, therefore, to weigh McQuade’s guilt or innocence, Holmes and Wise asserted. In the Theofel matter, John Theofel, Democratic leader of Queens county, as w'ell as chief clerk of the surrogate’s office, was accused by Seabury of being incompetent to hold that position or any other public position for various reasons, among them the fact that he was Interested in an automobile agency, from which public officials were compelled to buy their cars. Theofel also had large private bank accounts on a small salary. No Further Action Roosevelt referred the charges to the surrogate of Queens, Hetherington. In the testimony before Seabury, Theofel swore that he was instrumental In “securing the appointment, and later the nomination and election of the present surrogate, Surrogate Hetherington.’’ A few weeks later, Hetherington dismissed the charges against Theofrl. The Governor took no further action. Despite the millions of words that have been printed about the Seabury investigation, probably no subject of wide public interest has been more misunderstood than this one. Part of this misunderstanding has been laid to the door of Roosevelt's friends, part to the very complexity of the whole subject. Many believe that Roosevelt signed a bill creating the Seabury investigation, and, thereby, gave his approval to an inquiry into Tammany. The truth is that Roosevelt signed no such bill because the measure was a joint resolution of the legislature, dictated by Kingsland Macy, Republican state chairman, and as a resolution was not sent to the Governor for his approval or veto. Didn’t Approve Probe Again, you may have the impression that Roosevelt by approving the first appropriation for the investigation thereby also approved the Investigation. The fact is that the $250,000 for the first expenses were taken from the legislature’s contingent fund, and the Governor signed this appropriation bill because such bills always are signed, by an unwritten law. when the legislature’s own contingent fund supplies the cash. A distinguished French scholar in speaking of the historical Brutus characterized him as “a man of study, who, in spite of his natural repugnance, has become a man of action, and has been carried by the stream of events into circumstances foreign to his nature."

BUSINESS AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS

Pure Milk Is Essential in Summer Advent of warmer weather makes of even more interest the care of the milk supply. It is a bit unforunate that what undoubtedly is mankind’s best food should be of a character that exposes it easily to contamination and even to dangerous infection. But since this is the case, the way in which it is handled becomes of the utmost importance to the consumer. Those who live in the territory south of Washington street and west of Senate avenue have an assurance of good milk in perfect sanitary order in the operations of the Weaver diary, “where purity is paramount." In the building itself and the modem equipment this dairy especially is well situated, for everything about the place has been designed to secure the utmost cleanliness, and therefore the utmost purity. The machinery used in the pasteurization and the bottling is of the latest type, designed primarily for sanitary perfection, and milk is handled almost entirely by machinery that can be and Is sterilized regularly. L. H. Weaver, the proprietor, goes a bit farther in that he has made provision also for the cleanliness of the employes as well as the physical properties. Giving the sanitary features the utmost personal attention, Weaver feels justified in saying that he offers the always safe and pure product that contributes so much to health. Delivery trucks of the Weaver dairy carry with them cream, buttermilk %nd butter, in addition to milk. Residents who appreciate the superior vitamin content of fresh butter and the dietetic value of buttermilk find these products as satisfactory as the milk. The diary is located at 1934 Madison avenue, and Weaver welcomes visitors at any time. The dairy often is visited by parties of students who desire to see just how milk should be cared for in order to protect the public.

NOVEL OASIS OF LIFE INSURANCE ORDER'SJITUAL Wallace’s Tale of Christ Gave Idea for Ben-Hur Association. Romance comes in business as well as in heroic deeds. It is present everyw here waiting for the keen vision that wil use it to develop an: Institution of universal service. In Crawfordsville, in 1894, the time when Indiana authors were showing that wonderful literary skill that made the state teem with writers, a group of business men saw the potentialities of Lew Wallace’s remarkable novel. “Ben Hur—a Tale of Christ,” applied to home protection. With the friendly co-operation of the author, these men formed a fraternal insurance order, taking the ritual from this novel. Then it was the Tribe of Ben-Hur. The order thrived. It soon found, however, that its insurance features were not scientific, and it undertook the task of rebuilding them info a legal reserve company, now known as she Ben Hur Life Association, one of the outstanding fraternal organizations of the world. Fraternity Is Keynote These men built honestly and securely, better than they knew, for with a ritual that is rich in practical lessons they taught the cooperation of one with another. Growth has been continuous, but not spasmodic. Fraternity has been the keynote, with the assured protection of legal reserve insurance behind it. Brief review historically will show that in the early days the men that governed this association were above the average even in fraternal organizations. Old timers will remember General Wallace, Judge Robert W. Mcßride, former Governor Ira J. Chase, Dr. Nelson G. Smith, Greencastle; Frank L. Snyder, Crawfordsville, and others connected with the early history of the iraternal order as men of character and ability. Home Is Maintained From them, with D. W. Gerard as founder, the new organization received a molding that left its character fixed, its fraternity unquestioned, and its business methode sound. Os its good works since then a volume might be written. How its local chapters have relieved distress, how its insurance features have brought security and peace to the bereaved, how its helping hand has been extended in thousands of cases, w’ould be a record that would justify the highest degree of pride among its members. The Ben-Hur home for the aged, the junior order, the social features, the protection given its members who went to war—all of these are just high lights in the history. Upon this foundation, established by the mighty men of a generation

TRADE AT HOME IS PLEA OF PRINTERS

Dollars Spent in City Do Double Duty, Says Union Official. Guy McCoy. Allied Printing Trades Council secretary, points out that a number of Indianapolis concerns really are cutting down their own business by sending their printing out of the city. McCoy insists that there is nothing in the printing line that can not be done as well and as economically in Indianapolis as anywhere in the country, and he urges that when a job of this kind is done elsewhere the local merchants have just that much less trade. “I realize,” said he, “that this is a big country which is closely united in business, and that means of communication are so good that it is not much more trouble to do business in Chicago than it is in Irvington. “But I submit also that in the disturbance which has swept over the country the last two years, it is to the interest of each community to take all the care it can of the people who live in it. Hence, I urge home buying and home industry as much as possible right now. “Every dollar that is spent in the printing business of Indianapolis does a double duty for Indianapolis people, for the simple reason that as fast as it is earned by employes of the printing concerns here it goes into the retail channels again and increases the local business. “When it is spent elsewhere it does just as much for the general

Sheet Metal Useful in Trimming, Store Windows

Idea Developed in Gardner Shop Wins Favor in Other Cities. One of the ideas developed in the fifty-year-old sheet metal establishment of the Joseph Gardner Company, 147-153 Kentucky avenue, is the use of sheet metal for the back of display windows, now used generally in the larger stores of the country. Many handsome effects have been worked out in these windows, from a gold painted background to a modernistic display of dazzling colors. An effect similar to a pleated fabric background was worked out with the assistance of one of the display managers in a local store, and the idea was taken up all over the country. It is in the knowledge of what can be done with sheet metal, the metal to be employed and the weight to be used, that the Gardner Comago, has been built the present organization, a mantle of protection over its members, an insurance organization that affords the best at the least cost, and a rapidly growing and far developing order in connection. People of the right kind, protecting their families against eventualities and themselves against the dependence of old age, find the BenHur insurance features offer them many advantages, giving in addition a ritual rich in the best things of life, an association with the persons they wish to meet, and a wealth of traditional care and interest in their fellow members.

volume of trade, no doubt, but Indianapolis does not benefit by it. In the present situation the volume of business done by Indianapolis retail houses is affected by every dollar spent for printing that goes outside of the city. “This is an unnecessary loss, for Indianapolis printers are famous for the quality of their work throughout the country and are well equipped to take care of all the needs of local industries.”

pany has made itself especially valuable to a number of industries. The long experience of the company, its high reputation for excellent work, and the personal interest taken in the jobs has brought about a condition wherein hundreds of concerns, when confronted with a problem in sheet metal work, say “Go see Joe Gardner” and dismiss the matter from their mind# as done. The company’s work extends over a large part of the country. It includes lighting systems in copper, ventilating work, skylights, roofing, dust controlling devices, tanks and similar articles of unusual magnitude, but also it includes the repair of the metal work on residences and the manufacture of a number of articles in sheet metal. Among these articles are piping of all uses, chimney tops, dairy articles, including milk cans, and any specialty made of light metal.

RAIL LINE OUTS i NEW EQUIPMENT Reorganized Firm Plans Many Improvements. BY J. J. BEDLOW The Indianapolis Railways, Inc., system is adding a considerable number of new cars and busses to its system and doing much work j to perfect its accommodations to! the public. The company is &oing ahead with 1 its improvements in the belief that | Indianapolis residents appreciate 1 the many advantages of a good transportation system and will 1 patronize it sufficiently to keep the service up to a high standard. In warm weather there is nothing more restful than a comfortable evening ride in either the cars or the busses. Perfect safety, a reasonable degree of speed, and the restfulness of a care-free cool ride, bring about a quietness conducive to a good night’s sleep, and quiet nerves after a busy day. The rest thus given is inexpensive, and a ride to the outskirts and return often is long enough to satisfy. One of the greatest services performed by the company is that its transportation enables the family of modest means to live at a distance from the hot and close downtown section. If one had to depend on private means of getting back and forth this suburban home would be an impossibility to most families. - More healthful conditions of living, greater enjoyment of the home and quick, safe transportation anywhere at any time without previous notice of arrangement constitute a very great service to residents of this city. REVIEW BOARD FAILS . TO BAR REPORTERS John McCloskey, Assessor, “Put on Carpet” at Meeting. Marion county board of review failed today in an effort to bar reporters from a meeting at which John C. McCloskey, Center township assessor was “on the carpet,” accused of increasing assesment of some property in the mile square. Robert R. Sloan, county assessor and chairman of the board, told the newspaper men to stay out, but they ignored the order. Don Brewer, a board member, remarked to McCloskey : “We can’t talk straight to you with these reporters around.” McCloskey was told by the board that it had received “several complaints” regarding assessments in the mile square. The township assessor explained that his purpose was to equalize valuations for tax purposes, and that in so doing there | had been increases in some in- j stances and decreases in others.
