“Everyone remembers how absolutely practical he was. He wouldn't allow fancy offices to

| be set up nor did he allow a great

deal of extra equipment bought. He had refugees taken to public places such as the city hall to be cared for until their homes were free from water.” During an inspection trip Mayor Shank and two police sergeants were marooned at the old Nordyke & Marmon Co. plant when someone stole their rowboat. They were finally “rescued” in an automobile, The Shank warehouse was then located at 227 N. New Jersey st., in an area which was not flooded by the White river. The warehouse was filled to overflowing with furniture and other household belongings of flood victims.

The late Samuel I. Shank

During the present flood, there has been little space for such storage because storage has increased by leaps and bounds, chiefly due to the war. It was a year later that Mayor Shank broke a local potato “famine” by buying potatoes by the carload in Michigan and selling them at cost here. Mayor Shank was incensed because potato | prices were too high and he sold | many bushels directly from the | railroad cars, often at only 98 cents a bushel. This exploit brought him na-tion-wide publicity and after Ris first term of office he toured the country making speeches from New York to San Francisco, filling 100 engagements at New York's Town Hall alone.

Cash returns to Indiana growers

per cent to an all-fime high of $1,662,076 from fresh fruits and vegetables sold through the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co.'s producebuying affiliate, the Atlantic Commission Co., it was reported today. In 1941 purchases totaled $1,090,120. The state supplied fresh fruits and vegetables equivalent to 2229 carlots last year, as compared to 2122 carlots the previous year, Harvey A. Baum, vice president and general manager, said. He reported also that growers and shippers obtained a record share of the consumer's dollar spent for produce in A. & P. stores, receiving an average of 56.3 cents in 1942, which is 20 per cent higher than the 46.8 cents in 1937 and 3 per cent more than the 546 cents in 1941. This is well above the national average returns from produce sold through all channels. “Greatly increased demand for fresh fruits and vegetables and the narrowing of the spread between farm and retail prices contributed to increasing the income of our Indiana - farm suppliers by 52.5 per cent from 1941 to 1942,” Mr. Baum reported. “Growers not only cashed in on higher prices but also on years of work of efficent distributors. Every cent saved in distribution has been another step in increasing the income of growers. “Growers today have an opportunity to build expanded, stable markets that will endure in peacetime if quality, grade and pack standards are maintained insofar as wartime conditions permit, and if growers and distributors work to-
