AS the farmers, the packers and

PEACE EVENTUALLY. In a letter to this newspaper not
long ago Mr. Max Kirchman of Gary, a man of parts who is well-informed
on the big questions of the day inso far as they deal with the Balkans ex
pressed his opinion that Europe as a
whole would not become Involved in a general war over the outcome of the pending struggle, BECAUSE NONE
OF THE NATIONS FIGURING
THEREIN COULD AFFORD TO GO TO WAR BECAUSE OF THEIR FINANCIAL. CONDITION. There is every reason to believe that Mr.
Kirchman has sized up the situation
cleverly.
Europe is certainly in no financial
condition for a general war. It has been pointed out that Austria which
Is making most of the noise is in a
very precarious condition industrial
ly, commercially and financial. Her
ally Germany is strained to the ut
most.
Peace is nominally speaking only
a matter of a short time, though con
ditions have been more complicated
in the Balkans and so mixed and un

or the fighting may go on for months
DESERVES YOUR SUPPORT. In a few weeks Mayor K. M. Wosczynski, Clerk Ignatius Mankowski and a number of deserving aldermen will go before the people of West Hammond for the re-nomination and re-election which will amount to a vote of confidence.
August Kamradt, who has made a
good treasurer, will not be a candi
4ate again but deserves the gratitude of his fellow citizens for the manner in which he has conducted his office.
But the "administration" is goln
to ask the people of West Hammond, the decent people of that communtiy.
to approve of their work by returning
them to office.
MAYOR WOSCZYNSKI AND HIS
CO-WORKERS HAVE HAD HARD SLEDDING. They got into office to
find that the city attorney. Jacob
Katz, was unfriendly and was lined up with the old gang; the police
force from Chiefs Johnson and Kul
czyk down to the last patrolman were
against them, even the magistrate to
whom they looked for administration
of justice was regarded by them as be
ing hostile to their cause.
A number of the aldermen that
were elected along with the reform
ers were under the thumb of the dive
keepers, as their vote on the license
revocation measures proved.
Everything was done to discredit
tne administration. Nothing was done to help It except that THE TRIES laid bare the whole rotten situation, " Miss Brooks spectacular

Illinois and federal authorities to con
ditions as they were revealed and
prosecutions followed.
The first decided step was taken

any antipathy toward the base ball. I was put. in charge.
Next came the assault on the dis
oraeriy saloons. An attempt was made to call the mayor off by having
him arrested on trumped up charges
but the fight went on and finally with
the aid offour clean and loyal alder
men the dives were put out of the business and have not run from that
day to this.
Probably the crucial period of the
fight came when THE TIMES started
to expose those who were profiting from vice conditions and the true character of several men who were
profiting on conditions there was revealed. West Hammond got a lot of undesirable notoriety but It deserved all ifc got for its laxity In the past. The fact was revealed' that robberies were frequent, even murder was held cheaply, disease was spread over the entire community and white slavery was common. But the forces of evil were beaten
by the bravery and determination of
Mayor Wosczinski and his supporters.
For the past six months West Hammond. has been clean. It Is coming to
be considered the logical home of the
workingman of this great industrial
community.
WHERE'S THAT STRIKE. Even though long-distance tele
scopes were available no one could
find any trace this morning of the
big Bteel strike that the American
Federation of Labor had promised fori
tomorrow.
It was announced several days ago
that Gary, Indiana Harbor, and East
Jhicago would be effected by a gen-
ral strike order but if there Is to
be one tomorrow no one knows anything about it.

Turkey has been ready to cede ever since the abortive peace negotiations

INDIANA-ILLINOIS BOULEVARD. The best way to get state help in

At the north end of the IndianaIllinois state line there is the city of Chicago and the populous cities of Indiana that will have 250,000 people in another quarter of a century.
At the south end of this line is the
historic city of Vincennes, the oldest
in the state, and farther pouth the populous river city of Evansville. The proposal is to make it a state project in both Indiana and Illinois.
It is suggested that the road be
built as substantially as any Roman
road was ever built. Concrete via
ducts and bridges should be put in
where ever needed, the pavement should be of asphalt macadam, curb
ed and t drained, the cuts and fills should be planned to eliminate as
much grade as possible and in short
the road should be model of road building.
The cost would be divided between
Indiana and Illinois so that the 100
foot pavement could be provided for
the use of both states at the minimum
figure.

OPTIMISM.
In our village theres' a bookman
with a sparkle in his eye, and he's always getting closer to the hearts
of those who buy. With this cheer
ful, pleasant dealer all the people
keep in touch, from the banker to the, copper, for he doesn't talk too much.
Not a dismal, doleful grumble does he utter in his store; like the busy bees that bumble, he is hustling ever
more. Whether you sell prune or prism, calico or one-boss shays, you
will find sane optimism is a thing that
always pays. Publisher and Re

WHY is it the tendency of the

3,505 LOTS.
The delinquent tax and assessment for the City of Gary lists three thousand five hundred and five lots and scores of acres to be sold at public
sale next Monday.
Why didn't the owners of three
thousand, five hundred and five lots pay their taxes and assessments? It
wasn't because they were too low.
The mere fact that so many thous
ands of lots are to be sold indicates that something is wrong and the
figures are the most potent argument
back of it.
