Clocks Jurists Irate Taxpayer Assails Courtroom Hours.

TTJSTA TAXPAYER called The Times by phone Monday, suggesting that judges in county courts be placed on an hourly pay basis. He explained: “I was at the courthouse during the forenoon Monday to pay my taxes at a rate which is 21 cents higher than last year.

I don’t see why the courts need to be run differently from any other business. ‘‘So why not put the judges on an hourly pay basis, so they Will get paid only while working?”

11 Consider the Railroads S— as Developers In the United States more than 100 million people live and work within ten miles of the nearest railroad. ’This does not just happen to b true. It is true because most of thi country has grown up along its railroads. They have been the great developers. As the early railroads were built, settlers came in, farms were placed in cultivation, towns sprang up, and business began to be carried on. A Ever since then the dependable transportation provided by tha railroads has been an influential factor in th continued development of the country. Today the railroads carry the nation’s business. Because business has been dull, the railroads have had less to do, but as business revives th rail network of the country again will hum with activity. Constructive criticism and suggesGOOD TIMES t ons are invited. AND BUSY L A DOWNS President, RAILROADS Illinois Central System CO TOCETHER

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

FEENEY SEERS FUND TO EQUIP STATEPOLICE Armaments Held Woefully Deficient in Hunt for Escaped Convicts. Declaring that search for ten convicts who escaped Sept. 26 from the Indiana prison showed the state police department to be "woefully deficient with regard to equipment vitally necessary,” A1 Feeney, state safety director, today asked that $4,000 be made available for police use. He directed letters regarding the | situation to Governor Paul V. McNutt; Elmer F. Straub, adjutantgeneral; Floyd E. Williamson, auditor of state, and Philip Lutz, attor-ney-general. Fund Transfer Possible The director stated the $4,000 would be spent half for equipment and half for operating expenses of the police, and suggested that the money be obtained by transfer from the state athletic fund. Mr. Feeney, who also is state boxing commissioner, said the fund now contains about $16,000, and is increasing at the rate of about SI,OOO a month. Mr. Feeney pointed out that an armored car used Saturday by state police in chasing four of the fugitive prisoners was borrowed from the Marion police department. Urges Higher Speed Cars He urged purchase of a high speed squad car; ten light automobiles to replace motorcycles, use of which is inpracticable during the winter; ten shotguns of riot type; four automatic rifles; two gas guns; ten sirens and eight red lights. In the letter to Straub, a request is made for gas masks and other equipment which may be in state armories and not being used by the national guard.

OR. L. C. W m y MONTREAL CHARLANO If 1 SURGEON French Doctor Praises Cystex Doctors and druggists everywhere approve of the prescription Cystex because of its splendid ingredients and quick action. For instance. Dr. L. C. Charland, Graduate of the Laval University of Montreal, recently wrote the following letter: "In the treatment of patients, both men and women, showing symptoms of insufficient kidney and bladder excretion, I have had excellect results by prescribing hexamethylenamine, extract nux vomica, atropine sulphate, benzoic acid. extr. buchu. extr. corn silk. extr. triticum, potassium bicarbonate sod. borate and caffeine —which I find is the same formula used for Cystex and which is available at any drug store. One of the principal advantages of this fine combination lies in its acidneutralizing qualities, hence bringing relief to many patients, indicating a rheumatic pain tendency in joints, muscles or limbs. The action of this formula in hastening the flow of waste products unquestionably relieves a frequent cause of night rising. irregularity, headache, indigestion, backache and even high blood pressure. Women especially are benefited through relief of pain and irritation. Asa hygienic aid to the treatment of many kidney and bladder ailments. I consider Cystex a rational prescription of merit, and I freely give you my permission to use any or all of the above analysis.” Signed, L. C. Charland, M. D.
