HOOVER READY FOR RIG SMASH AT DEPRESSION t. President to Issue Call for National Parley of Business, Industry. BY RAYMOND CLAPPER I'nitrd Prf Staff Corrsoondrnt WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.—The ‘‘powerful attack’’ against the depression on all fronts which President Hoover forecast in his acceptance speech is about to begin. A call for a general conference of nation-wide business and industrial committees is being prepared at the White House. The date is to be announced shortly. The purpose is to unify the reconstruction program. Federal resources and private initiative are to be co-ordinated. Mr. Hoover has made it plain that the exigences of the presidential campaign and the heated argument over prohibition will not sidetrack his one big objective—to stimulate business. Drys Slow to Comment He has declared his personal view that the eighteenth amendment should be changed so that, with the saloon forbidden, states shall resume control of the liquor problem. Drys, who expected him to go no further than to recommend submission of the question, are slow to comment. A record-breaking flood of congratulatory telegrams at the White House has cheered Mr. Hoover. His advisors sense in this avalanche of approval what they believe is a turn in the tide, with a more sympathetic hearing assured for the President from now on. Henry Ford sent a telegram of indorsement, registering the position expressed in an interview months ago that Mr. Hoover should be re-elected because he was best fitted by experience to continue the task of reconstruction. GifTord Resigns Post Resignation of Walter S. Gifford as director of the President’s emergency unemployment committee will require the President to find another man to handle the unemployment advisory work during the coming winter. In his acceptance speech, the President announced he was organizing private industrial and financial resources of the country to co-op-erate effectively with the vast governmental instrumentalities now in motion, “so that through their united and co-ordinated efforts we may move from defense to powerful attack upon the depression along the whole national front.” Nine-Point Program Ready Governor Eugene Meyer of the federal reserve board has been at work on this. This program was forecast two weeks ago at the White House. It contemplates: 1. Stimulation of engineering works through the Reconstruction Finance Corporation’s $1,500,000 fund for self-liquidating public works. 2. Rebuilding of slum districts into modern housing groups. 3. Expansion of live stock loans. 4. Assistance, financial or otherwise, in developing advance purchases of raw materials such as cotton. 5. General expansion of industrial credits for production in lines where consumption is assured. 6. Expansion of railroad maintenance and repair work. 7. Expansion of home building under the new home loan bank system. 8. Spreading out of work through voluntary reduction of hours. 9. Miscellaneous co-operation between government agencies and special industries. Balloon Flight Delayed ZURICH, Aug. 13.—Prof. Auguste Piccard today delayed his flight by balloon into the stratosphere. Storm clouds were so threatening that he decided to wait at least until Sunday.

JIMMY’S TRIAL ‘SIDELINE’ FOR LEGALBATTLE Writ to Ban Roosevelt Ruling Holds Heavy Political Dynamite. BY FREDERICK A. STORM United Prej Staff Correspondent ALBANY, N. Y., Aug. 13.—Prospects of a bitter legal battle today overshadowed all developments in the two sessions of the ouster hearing against Mayor James J. Walker with Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt accepting service of a writ delaying his decision until after Friday. The hearing was adjourned Friday until 1:30 p. m. Monday. The writ, which may be the entering wedge in lengthy court proceedings, challenges the Governor’s power to remove Walker. Specifically, it directs the Governor to show cause next Friday why a writ prohibiting the hearing and removal of Walker should not be issued. The show cause order is returnable before Supreme Court Justice Ellis J. Staley. The court order which may cause powerful political repercussions was obtained by attorney for George Donnelly, Bronx Chamber of Commerce secretary. Argument behind the writ is that the home rule amendment to the constitution takes from the Governor the power vested in him by the original clauses of the constitution which assert he may remove a mayor. Should Justice Staley dismiss the writ, appeal might be taken. If the appellate division sustained a dismissal, the possibility of carrying the question to the court of appeals remained open. Action along these lines would result in delay of many months. Friday’s session of the hearing was marked by bitter argument and legal bickering. John G. Curtin, Walker’s attorney, and Roosevelt clashed several times. But in the end, the mayor was forced to explain transactions involving nearly $300,000 over the objections of Curtin. Offered SIOO,OOO Job By United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 13.—Mayor James J.

Misaligned Auto Wheels Prove Costly to Owner

The Reiss Steer-O-Master machine is shown here in the operation of making an alignment test. The machine is the only one of its kind in Indianapolis and is owned by the Cossey Tire and Battery Service station, 2229 East New York street.

Testing Machine Warns of Danger and Prevents Wear on Tires. Motorists are quite likely to pay for one service the repair man can give them whether they have the repair or not. In fact, many of them are paying excessively for this now, although they do not realize it. This is the proper alignment of axles and wheels. Let a wheel wobble on the axle, and you may be sure the owner is paying for the needed work in the quick wear of tires. If one will watch the cars he meets he will be surprised at the number that have a perceptible wobble. Nothing will wear a tire so quickly, and usually the defect adds to the difficulties of steering, and is really dangerous. Wheels, too, get out of alignment with the same results. Modern ingenuity has perfected machinery for the correction of these troubles that is often used without the necessity of tearing down - car. Axles are straightened by a cold process, which usually is advisable for the reason that it does not interfere with the temper of the metal. Wheels, too, are pressed back to the true in the same way. At 2229 East New York street, Rollin J. Cossey has provided the means of testing these defects in steering with an official Steer-O-Mast r service. He extends a test

Office Efficiency Raised by New Type Iced Air Fan

Cool Breeze Provided by Modine Also Adds to Home Comfort. The Modine ice fan, sold by the Polar Ice and Fuel Company, 2000 Northwestern avenue, may mean the difference between an efficient force and a distressed one. Men and women confined in the limited space of an office are more annoyed by the heat than those who can move about. Discomfort is not conducive to speed of work or keenness of attention. With the Modine any ordinary office can be kept cool and the ventilation conditions improved. The stream of iced air that issues from this little machine is like a breeze from snowy mountain peaks in its invigoration and comfort. Nor are the benefits of this ice fan limited to business offices. Medical and dental offices, clubrooms, hotel rooms, dress shops, barber shops and beauty parlors, tearooms and candy shops all can make their businesses more inviting by keeping cool, and the home with a Modine ice fan never permits its occupants to suffer. The machine itself is simple. It is made in sections, the use of which is governed by the size of the room. The fan occupies the top section. The base may consist of one, two or three ice sections, dependent upon the amount of ice required. The fan itself uses little electrical current—no more than a small desk fan. The Modine ice fan may be set up anywhere. No plumbing connections are required, and the cabinet is an attractive piece of furniture, occupying little room, which can be moved as desired. BUSINESS EXPANDED Crasy Crystals Office Is Opened Downtown. H. H. Thomas, state distrubtor for Crasy Crystals mineral water, has opened a downtown office, located at 114 East Washington street. Thomas, up to this time, carried on his business through personal deliveries, but the rapidly increasing demand for Crasy Crystals forced him to open an establishment where he could serve his growing trade. Crasy Crystals has earned a reputation of being one of the best recognized treatments for rheumatism, indigestion, constipration and ! other stomach disorders, Thomas! asserts. He invites the public to visit his new establishment and obtain a trial drink of Crasy Crystal water, i

and report entirely without charge to the motorist, and with the remarkable machine in ten minutes he can give the exact conditions of the steering, front end and wheel alignment of the car. The Steer-O-Master locates visibly the cause of any trouble of the kind with scientific exactness, and, of course, with the guesswork eliminated, the expense of a correction usually is a small matter. Cossey has the only Reiss wheel aligning machine in Indianapolis and the only gauge for testing internal brakes in the city. He uses the Reiss braketesting machine also. The service extended at this station is quite complete. Ignition service of all kinds is a specialty, motors are tuned, brakes are adjusted, relined and repaired, radiators are serviced, tires are repaired and vulcanized, cars are greased and cleaned. Gasoline, oils and greases, polishes, body paint and Federal tires are sold. Cossey prides himself on the exactness of his methods and on the provision of the right tools for doing the work. His twelve years in business at this location has established him thoroughly among the residents of the east end of the city, and many motorists go to his place from other parts of the city, attracted by the scientific nature of the work done and the reasonable charges. A tewing service always is available for those who may be disabled on the road.

HOTEL POPULAR SUMMER HOME Cool Lobby, Rooms, Pool Attract Visitors. Summer residence at the Hotel Antlers is without most of the discomforts of the hot season. The spacious lobby of the hotel affords a cool lounging place, the coffee shop is comfortable, and the rooms always receive what breezes may be blowing. Guests at the hotel have the advantage of the use of the handsome swimming pool in which to invigorate and cool themselves. This pool, by the way, becomes more popular every week, and many residents of the city enjoy it regularly. Swimming classes have been formed by a number of groups of Indianapolis women and men, who are taught by competent instructors in the pool. Instruction is given by teachers of both sexes. The coffee room is a popular place for business men. The food is prepared carefully, and the many hot weather dishes on the menu have proved attractive. It is a custom among many of the patrons to discuss business questions over the luncheon, and many deals have been put over in the Antlers coffee room. Over all rules a spirit of genuine hospitality and interest in the guests that has been a marked feature of the administration of Manager R. I. Griffith, who is known personally to most of the traveling men who regard the Antlers as a home. Byrd’s Flagship at Boston BOSTON, Aug. 13.—The Bear, 58-foot cutter which will be Admiral Richard E. Byrd’s flagship on his next Antarctic expedition, has reached here after a month’s voyage from Oakland, Cal.

PURE DRINKING WATER SUPPLY PAYSJHVIDENDS Product of Springs Found to Have Beneficial Health Effect. When one reflects that from 65 to 80 per cent of the body is really water, that the blood is mostly water, and that the other vital fluids of the body are also principally water, the importance of the healthfulness and purity of this water is evident. Nature has a way of compounding such water that man can not approach. The medical springs of the world can be analyzed, and a sick man may be treated with exactly the same amounts of the chemicals contained in the water, without apparent effect, while when placed on the water itself he begins to gain immediately. This same thing is true with drinking good spring water. There is sometihng about it that invigorates, strengthens and clears away the byproducts of the body that are injurious. Actual tests have shown that offices using Crystal Springs water in Indianapolis are more efficient and happier than when the office staff is forced to do without it. Many homes in the city have the same experience. They find that Crystal Springs water has a marked beneficial effect. Efficiency Is Reduced Then, with this beneficial water, the manner of drinking it becomes of equal importance. It has been declared by eminent scientists who are studying the common cold that at least 90 per cent of the losses of time and efficiency from this source are due to the taking in of the cold germ through the mouth. The annual loss, especially to employers, runs into hundreds' of millions of dollars. No one wants to send an employe home because he has a cold, yet his own worth during its duration is greatly lowered and he is a potential danger to the rest of the force. One of the commonest causes of the spread of the colds and too often of more serious diseases is the common drinking cup. Enough has been written about this to abolish this cup, but it still flourishes. Cost Is Negligible That is largely because of lack of thought. The ease with which paper cups can be supplied and the low cost attached thereto simply has not yet registered on otherwise efficient managers of labor and office forces. If it had, there would be no need of this article. As it is, the actual financial loss of a concern that permits the insanitary practice of one person driking after another would pay the cost of such cups many times over. The Crystal Springs Water Company, 148 Virginia avenue, has been urging this gospel of health for yearsfc: :Thisr, poncern supplies the Burt paper cup, with a free dispenser for the office or shop, in addition to furnishing Crystal Springs water, a deep spring water maintained at deep spring coolness by Frigidaire coolers, leased or sold to its patrons. Employers Are Benefited A volume might be written of the beneficial results following the provision of good spring water and sanitary cups. It is only too evident that most persons fail to drink enough water, and that as a consequence. they grow loggy and sleepy, slow in their work, and make mistakes, some of which are quite likely to prove expensive. But there is another side to it, too, for those who enjoy the good spring water are happier, brighter and more contented—and as employers know well, that means they are far more valuable. COMET NOW IS VISIBLE Tail Twice as Long as Full Moon’s Diameter Seen Through Binoculars. By Science Service WILLIAMS BAY, Wis., Aug. 13. The Peltier-Whipple comet visible through binoculars in the northwestern evening sky has a tail twice as long as the diameter of the full moon appears in the sky. This one degree tail is reported by Dr. George Van Biesbroeck of Yerkes observatory here. The head of the comet appears like a star.
