The valuation of permits for Indianapolis construction last month totaled $2,429,438, thé highest for March in the last 10 years, George |R. Popp Jr., City Building Commissioner, .announced today. This figure exceeded by $1,420,572 the March, 1938, valuation of $1,008,866, the previous high since 1929, Mr. Popp said. Similarly, residential construction which totaled $1,714,008 last month, hit a peak for March in the 10-year period, Mr. Popp said. It was $1,458,608 more than the value of residential building for March a year ago, the Commission's records showed.

The high was largely accounted for by the issuance of a permit for the large Marcy Village Housing project which totaled $1,195,458, Mr. Popp said. Meanwhile, a compilation of the Commission’s figures for the first quarter of 1930 showed that total

construction was $2,510,479 greater than the total for the same period a year ago. Valuation of new construction for the first three months of 193% was

Returns from 17 states in the famous query among Southern and Western women show 2233 users asked “Were you helped by CARDUI?” and 2091 affirmative replies. In other words, 93 out of every 100 users say CARDUI helped them. Ample confirmation of this was received right here in Indianapolis where 94 out of the first 100 users, seen at random by one of the Touring Reporters, declared they were benefited by CARDUL Back of this remarkable record eyefit to k, rindewn, neivSt Ee be
