PROPOSED LIcH RATES STUDIED

Second Meeting Is Set for Thursday on Lower Power Charges.

Beatrice Wildt, 32; of Evans-

City and state officials today are studying a reduction in light and power rates proposed yesterday by the Indianapolis Power and Light Co., in preparation for the second meeting to be held Thursday. Preliminary meetings are held in an effort to reach an agreement on light rates before the scheduled public hearing Sept. 30, before the Public Service Commission. The proposal mated to save consumers annually, included the schedule: First 50 kilowatt cents per kilowatt hour; kilowatt hours—3.8 per

{ 3.8 cents per kilowatt hour, while | the third division was reduced from |

4 cents to 2.5 per kilowatt hour. The minimum monthly mains 65 cents under the proposed agreement. A reduction of approximately $70,000 | was offered large power users by making the demand charge from month to month instead of on an annual basis.

Sun to Start Vacation, Theoretically at Least, at 11:26 P. M.

The sun theoretically goes. on a vacation beginning at 11:26 tonight in Indianapolis. For an entire summer it has

{ worked overtime in beating on crops |

| and brows, but it must give way to- | night to the autumnal equinox with { its frosts, winter winds and coal bills.

The equinox is the time when the | sun’s center crosses the equator and | = : NE > 3 ; : : : crop insurance—in itself apparentl coincides with the equinoctial point | p u pparentiy

and thereby bringing to end the

| days of bunkers and Tom Collinses.

But where weather observers in |

Indianapolis term tonight as the |. Oo "(ce entirely out of the cam-

official time for the sun to get up | paign. ; later and punch the hay earlier, |

the solar system actually does not | begin to decrease its working hours |

until Saturday. On that day the sun is to 5:36. Today, the sun got up at 5:33 and is to go down at 5:43 p. m. The past summer saw the hottest day recorded by the Weather Bureau with 106 degrees on July 14. The season that quits tonight recorded 12 days of 100-degree or more temperatures. : Scores of persons died because of | heat prostration. Drought was se- | vere in many areas of the state. Possibility of forecasting a hard | or mild winter from the excessive { heat of this summer is “impossible,” J. H. Armington, United States { meteorologist, said today. | Frost, he says, may not reach | killing proportions until the middle of October with the earliest pumpon the weather | bureau records fixed at Sept. 21, 1897, when a killing frost dropped upon the county.

Illinois, |

SKIDDING! HERE is no more helpless sensaticn than the one you get when your car goes into a skid on a slippery pavement. Many a driver has skidded right into the hospital or the graveyard. To get out of a skid release the brakes, if you have applied them, and turn the front wheels in the direction in which the rear wheels are sliding. And be mighty quick about it! To prevent skidding, don’t apply the brakes with strong continuous pressure but slow down the car gradually by alternately applying and releasing the brakes until you have killed most of the momentum.

will help a great deal to prevent skidding. So will good chains. These should always be put on both rear wheels—never on one

LANDON'S FARM

James a Deery, city corporation | zounset, has operated under an indeterminate contract heretofore. The new agreement includes a clause whereby the company, instead of | the city, maintains the paved right- | of-way between tracks. : The vote favoring adoption was unanimous with Councilmen John A. Schumacher, Adolph Fritz, EdYard F. Kealing, Dr. Silas J. Carr, ; if Edward R. Raub present, If approved by the company directorate today and the Works Board at its next meeting it will mean a total expenditure of more than $7,000,000 by the utility since 1931, Mr. Chase Approximately 152 trackless trolley cars are to be.in operation over almost 50 miles of lines. trackless tralley cars now under construction, are greatly improved models, he said.

One of the largest fleets of trackless trolley cars in the nation, the city lines are to serve all Washington, Lexington, and College-av and the Stockyards routes. : Most of the immediate work, according to Mr. Chase, is to be removal of overhead lines. The agreement provides that the company should remove two miles of tracks not in operation each year. Payment is to be based on actual -miles of track used, with a report re-: quired from the company for each payment. Ordinances effecting the sale of fireworks, routes for heavy trucks were held over until next meeting.

weeks ago when the state PWA office forwarded on request the certification of the need for labor from the Works Progress Administration, Mr. Logan said.

The Junior Chamber of Commerce is acting as a co-ordinating group to arouse public sentiment in favor of a civic auditorium, according to E. B. Byfield, organization president. Members of the Civic Recreational Center committee are Harry Ice, Joe McNamara, George Fotheringham, Francis Hughes, Mayburn Langray, Val McLeay and Mr. Bruhn. : ; The committee has gathered information from all sections of the country as to the feasibility of municipal auditoriums in large cities. Its survey has shown that Indianapolis is the only city of its size in the United States that does not have a municipal auditorium, members claimed. A letter to Mr. Bruhn from the manager of the Milwaukee auditorium revealed that the project there not only supported itself, but paid $40,000 annually on retirement of the principal cost. The Milwaukee auditorium, built at a cost of $1,750,000, seats 8000 persons. In 1931, there were 281 cities in the United States with municipal auidtoriums, a survey revealed. Of the 91 cities with populations of 100,000 or over, 38 had auditoriums. The modern auditoriums have

WATER CONSERVATION STUDIED AT PARLEY

By United Press WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.—America’s failure to save and utilize its water resources has done more actual damage to the country than war, Isiah Bowman, president of John Hopkins University, said today at the opening session of the up-stream engineering conference. The conclave, the first of its Kind, was called ‘by Morris L. Cooke, drought adviser to President Roosevelt. * Delegates will study new | means of conserving water by building small dams near stream sources.

One feature of the project would

for some reason was not on the tax duplicates, according to Mr, Walsman. A similar Texas project paid for itself in the first year by disclosing unassessed property, WPA officials said.

The commission and local assessors would have an opportunity to revaluate properties and correct ine | equalities if they had complete rec-

Walsman said.
