MINTON LACKS SYMPATHY FOR HOLDING FIRMS Notifies Utility Supporter He Will Back Roosevelt on Regulation. WASHINGTON. Feb. 23 —Appeals to Senator Sherman Minton to oppose utility holding company regulation legislation are apt to be futile. it appeared today. Here is the answer he sent a prominent Indianapolis holder of utility bolding company stocks who threatened him with political extinction if he doesn't vote against the holding company bill: "I have your letter concerning legi lation aflecting public utility holding companies. ‘The Administration has marked out m no uncertain terms the path to follow and the overwhelming ma jority of citizens, who have been unmercifully exploited by privatelyowned utilities, ferevently pray that there will be no turning back. "No doubt you will agree that there have been numerous abuses by holding companies and these should be corrected. "You may rest assured that hearings will be held on this bili and I will see that your views are presented to the committee.'’ In this, as in other policy legislation. Senator Minton intends to support President Roosevelt, he said. In addition, he added, he had learned •‘considerable” about the operation of utility holding companies as public counselor for the Indiana Public Service Commission. 364 CORN-HOG CHECKS" GO TO MARION COUNTY AAA Officials Assure Famers Prompt Payment This Season.

Hu Times Special TIPTON. Feb. 23.—Question regarding the ownership of two furnaces is the basis of a suit brought to the Tipton Circuit Court here on a change of venue from Hamilton County, to be tried before Judge Frank B. Russell. A mortgage on a Noblesville apartment house was foreclosed and the furnaces, which were still owned by the Holland Furnace Cos., were understood by officers of the American National Bank, Noblesville, mortgage holder, to be a part of the property. The point to be determined is whether the bank can claim the furnaces without the Holland company being a party to the foreclosure. Judge Russeli will announce his decision after a study of briefs.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
BUSINESS NEWS FOR THE WEEK
HERR RELATES AUTO SERVICE ADVANCEMENT Certification of Mechanics and Shop Licensing Described. Don Herr, owner of the garage bearing his name at Kentucky-av. and Maryland-st, made the following statement today: "Those firms engaged in the servicing of autos whose business it is to keep cars running as cheaply as possible must keep in step with mass production methods and maintain a system of high efficiency. If this 1 theory holds good in the service line. | isn't it reasonable to assume that j a shop whose job this is must con- | tinua’ly study mechanical develop- | ments in order to do a proper service job? The automotive repair industry is one of the largest in the United States in a dollar and cents value. “Any one in this business should be conscientious for the safety of the motorist, if for no other reason. The Automotive Trade Association, in the interest of bettering service, has instituted the certification and investigation of automotive mechanics and repairmen. It also has instituted the licensing of shops as to qualifications for giving capable service to the motoring public. Time Saving Cited "The Don Herr Company, being fully aware of the requirements demanded of today’s automobile service station has pioneered in this industry for the past 10 years the thought of a complete department store for automotive service. "We believe that during these times when car owners who used to own several cars, but because of economic conditions today only own one, feel that it is impossible to do without the use of a car almost to the point of finding no time to take care ot service requirements. "A shop of our kind is able to give service on all makes of cars, including complete mechanical service, body and fender repairing, upholstering, frame and axle aligning, auto laundry, lubrication, tires, batteries, parts and all types of accessories. Time Payments Offered "All of these services under one roof and one overhead makes it possible to give our service at legitimate, competitive prices, and with the car out of service the minimum length of time. Many motorists are taking advantage of our 24-hour service, which is maintained at considerable cost, but proves of great convenience to the motorist. "Our departments are supervised by experts in their respective lines, and our downtown location has proven itself a decided advantage to the busy motorist. "To keep pace with progress we have also worked out a convenient time payment plan for those who have found it necessary to budget their expenses. In other words, no one needs to shop around for all kinds of automotive repair work, as all this is under one roof and may be obtained at a minimum expense.” AUTORADIATOR SERVICE 6IVEN A-1 Company Few Pioneers in Field; Career Began in 1919. One of the few pioneers in the radiator repair business is Jack Hinesley, owner and active manager of the A-1 Auto Radiator Repair Cos., 11l Kentucky-av. Mr. Hinesley started in this business in 1919 as a bench worker for the old Reed-Mueller Cos., soon working his way to the top, becoming owner of, the company on the death of Mr.' Reed six years ago. Mr. Hinesley states: • Radiators are engineered according to the needs of the motor. They have a margin of safety, but never should be operated at full capacity even during cold weather. An obstruction or a leak reduces this capacity, permits an engine to overheat, and lays the groundwork for a big repair bill that will not show up till later. Hence, the radiator should be cleaned every spring. And right now is an excellent time not only to avoid the rush but to prevent any serious injury.” The A-1 workmen are specialists on the cooling systems of cars, confining their attention largely to the repair of radiators and tanks. Rumpvs Room Decoration A rumpus room in a richly furnished home at Rye. N. Y., has whife-painted walls and a whitebeamed ceiling. The floor is black linoleum. Couches are upholstered in chartreuse. Red and white chintz curtains are at the windows, and red and yellow leather chairs around the game table. Ancients Used Colors Color is an important influence in human lives. It is the foundation of beauty and its use dates back ali most to the beginning of history. The old civilizations—the Egyptians, j the Greeks and the Pompeiians beautified tneir surroundings with color in the form of paint.

The King Indiana Billiard Cos
1631 Southeastern-av, in its spacious new building has set up a display of pocket billiard, billiard and snooker tables, making one of the best displays of this sort of merchandise in the middle west.

Tables in stock may be had at various prices, ranging from the low priced table to those selling for higher sums. King’s has its own delivery system and equipment, and employs an expert crew of installers. Many prosperous billiard rooms now in operation are using King equipment. Many years of service has built up a host of customers for supplies and repairs, the company carrying a complete supply for billiard rooms. The company also equips homes with pocket billiard tables, and social room equipment of any nature. Selections may be made from 250 tables on display at the salesroom. Tables may be installed on a plan to meet budgets. The company recently added 12.000 feet of floor space to show the complete billiard table line along with china, restaurant, beverage, store fixtures and equipment. Claude King Jr., company manager, states: “The King Indiana Billiard Cos. is the largest store of the kind in the state selling this type of equipment. We have 250 feet of complete bars on display, ready for delivery.” Gray Needs Accenting Gray, in all its variations of tone, is excellent as a background color for a room or for painted furniture. It calls for a decoration or accent in a warm color, however, to keep it from being too cold. Other equally good colors to use for furniture are shades of ivory, gray-green or gray-blue.

Examples of Tri-Lite Lamps
Every true auction or contract bridge player appreciates good lighting. They not only appreciate it, but they expect it; nevertheless, many hostesses overlook this fact. It is well to remember good lighting may be provided simply and effectively by one of the new Trilite lamps, or two in case the room in large end there are three or more tables. This lamp is equipped with a glass reflector which gives one direct lighting properly diffused and indirect general room lighting. Supplied with 100, 200. and 300 watt bulbs, each lamp of this type can assure good light for every player and consistently fulfill its contract. These lamps prove their usefulness not only for bridge playing but for casual work and reading. By us.ng 100 watts one has soft light; 200 watts gives light for casual work and 300 watts gives excellent light for reading, sewing and bridge playing. These lamps are on sale at the lamp department of the Indianapolis Power and Light Company, Monument Circle, or at lamp dealers, and they are reasonably priced.
New Deal for Beds
Since the low bed is in vogue and will probably remain a favorite, large high beds may be converted by sawing down the headboard or removing it entirely, substituting a footboard for the headboard and cutting down the legs. When applying paint or enamel over wood that has been stained, first apply a thin coat of shellac or a specially prepared sealer. This is to prevent the stain from ‘bleeding” through the new coating.

TRUCKS SERVE AS EFFECTIVE BUSINESS AID Raw Material and Finished Products Transported With Efficiency. One sees a big truck traveling over the city streets. Sometimes one is impressed with its massive lines and general efficiency, but, more often than not. one does not think anything about it or the related subject of trucking. But if something should happtn that would tie up the truck fleets ot the city for even a day, practically every one here would feel the unpleasant effects. . These great trucks carry the products of the city's factories to railroad stations, warehouses and other distributing concerns; take raw material to factories, and distribute products of all kinds of concerns to the people. \ Performing such a service, the work must be done with the utmost regularity. One of the concerns that have made a success of trucking is the Central Transfer & Storage Company, 209 W. South-st. It has been in the business 44 years, and has an equipment of more than 50 trucks constantly all work. Some of the larger trucks are fitted with winches to handle heavy articles.
