PUSH DRIVE ON ‘LIQUOR ADS IN CITY CARRIERS

. Methodist Mission Society . Sends Letters to Chase

¢ And Red Cab Head.

The Methodist Church's drive against the advertising of intoxicating beverages in public conveyances today received added impetus from the Woman's Home Missionary Society of the church. The society sent letters to Thomas Ruckelshaus, president of Red Cab, Inc, and Charles W. Chase, president of Indianapolis Railways, asking that all liquor advertisements be withdrawn from vehicles operated by their companies. Officials of the Indianapolis Railways explain that they do not sell the advertising in their cars, but rather it is placed there by an advertising firm with which they have a long-term contract. Red Cab Co. officials cited, as a balancing factor with the liquor advertising, the use of “Let's Go to Church on Sunday” slogans which are posted on the cabs, The society also sent a letter to R. M. Hardwick, manager of the United Taxi Co. commending his company for “consistently avoiding] the practice which is so ©Objectionable to Christian citizens.” In the letters to Mr. Ruckelshaus | and Mr. Chase the society declared that “we feel that the advertisements are inconsistent with your definite policy of traffic safety. Fur-| ther they are objectionable to the good taste of the many Christian citizens who are your patrons.” The letter to the Red Cab Co.

commended the use of the “Let's Go to Church on Sunday* slogans on the cabs. Signers were Mrs. J. H. Smiley, Mrs. J. N. Green, Mrs. R. K. Brown and Mrs. Norris Wardell. The campaign was started in November at the quarterly conference {at the Roberts Park Methodist Church. A special committee of the Indianapolis Methodist Ministerial Association has been appointed to push the drive, but it has not yet made a report.

SHOWDOWN ON W. WASHINGTON PAVING SOUGHT

Ridge League Will Ask State For Answer on Sidewalks Plea.

Members of the Ridge Non-| Partisan League are to meet Mon- | day night and appoint a committee to visit the State Highway Depart- | ment and get a “definite answer on | our sidewalk problem.” Leslie Cadwell, chairman of the advisory board of the League, said that in September the Highway De- | partment promised to install walks

eral days ago reversed themselves by saying they had no record of it.

Tells of Fatalities

However, T. A. Dicus, State High- | way Department head, said today that plans were under way for the sidewalks but that a great deal of

sary for the project because a storm sewer must be laid before the walks can be constructed. “A group of about 30 of us asked the Highway Commission to install the walks as a safety measure,” Mr. Caldwell said, “I have worked in a. garage at 4808 W. Washington St. since 1930 and I have seen eight people killed by autos. The trouble is that when it is muddy the people walk on the highway and motorists use this] road as if it were the Speedway. “We certainly should have more law enforcement out here. Just a block from the garage seven people will killed in one accident. We have | asked that traffic lights geared for 40 miles an hour be installed, but it seems that there is a law against it, unless we are incorporated.”

Seek Improvement

At a meeting of the League Mon-! day it was decided to incorporate the area as a town, for several reasons. “We need better water, roads and something done about walks and signals on W. Washington St.’ Mr. Cadwell said. | The area which the League intends to incorporate is bounded by Robton St., Lyndhurst Drive, the Big Four Railroad, and the Pennsylvania Railroad. Mrs. Sophia Faulkner, League would be selected Monday night to contact County Commissioners, | “who promised to put gravel on our roads last year.

Final services were held Sow afternoon for Mrs. Hilton U. Brown at her home, 5087 E. Washington | St. Mrs. Brown, wife of Hilton U.| Brown, treasurer of The Indianapolis News, died Saturday. The Rev. E. Robert Andry, Downey Avenue Christian Church pastor, and the Rev. Charles E. Winders, former pastor, conducted the services. Burial was at Crown Hill Ceme- | tery. Five sons-in-law and a grand-' son were pallbearers. They were John W. Atherton, George O. Stewart, Floyd R. Mannon, Clifford E. Wagoner, David W. Konold, and the grandson, James Stewart.
