"It only emphasizes." Itepres-ntative McKellar of Tennessee of the house military committee said, "the danger of depending on our private manufacturers for munitions. "Where is the splendid patriotism so extolled as actuating American manufacturers? These bids aie n example of it." Representative Gordon of Ohio, an

PATRIOTIC MEETING TO BE HELD OH

1IY

Monday evening-, Jan. 8. h.is been

agreed upon as the date for holding a mass meeting of citizens, and prospective citizens of Hammond. The meeting will be held In the assembly room of the Central school. The arrangements for this patriotic gathering are in the hands of C. M. McDaniel, superintendent of schools, and an interesting and Instructive program has been prepared. Those in charge of the meeting will spare no effort to make it a complete success from y point of view. To this end, the nit. -ment has the cordial support of t:." educational authorities and representative citizens of Hammond as wU as the department of labor, through its bureau . of naturalization, which progressive governmental agency has issued a nation-wide call for these gettogether meetings. In practically every state in the Union the public school authorities" in co-operation with the bureau of naturalization have provided night schools where the adult foreign population may learn to speak, read and write the English language, and obtain a knowledge of American institutions and government. The establishment of these night schools is of vital Importance. Its advantage to the community Is well understood but the candidates for citizenship, in whose behalf these educational advantages are advocated are apparently not fully alive to their benefits. It is to bring' these benefits clearly to their minds

ami promote interest generally in the establishment and maintenance of public nlslit classes, that this meeting; is

I railed. j Moreover, these mass meetings have j for their objective the elevation of j the standard of American citizenship I in the eyes of the public representing

the resident alien body, citizens by birth, the school authorities and the judiciary. The courts of the United States stand ready to recoenize any elevation of the standard of qualifications for admission to c't.'zenship when these qualifications have been demonstrated as possible of attainment by the public schools locally. To insure the success of this nationwide movement for the betterment of civic conditions, the bureau of naturalization, together with the superintendents of schools, civil authorities, clerks of naturalization courts, and officials of the local foreign or racial associations. The federal authorities of the department of labor believe that the time Is ripe to strike an elective blow at illiteracy and incompetency by stimulating the Interest of employers and employes, foreign and native born, men, women and children in the great national problem of alien instruction

and citizenship preparedness. An attractive program haj been prepared for the meeting on Monday night. Addresses will be mado by Superintendent McDaniel and by attorney Joseph Conroy.

CHICAGO U lUflUl

REPUBLICANS ORGANIZED

All are welcome. No admission. This will be a scries of four lectures in the Opera House.

Last night at Weiland's hall, Forsyth avenue, the republicans of East Chicago held their first "get-together" meeting In preparation for the coming city campaign. Lester Ottenheimer was chosen chairman. Mr. Ottenheimer stated that the object of the meeting was to take some toll of the probably party strengh In the municipal election, to round up In-

! active and disinterested members of tfte

party and to perfect and energize the city organization.

I Tt was a west end meeting wholly and will be followed in the near future by l an Indiana Harbor meeting, after which ;! there will be one grand rally in a union ' I of all the forces of the city.

You will be in demand because our graduates have established a reputation for efficiency. NEW TERM OPENS MONDAY. In both the dav and the evening school. Write, phone, or call at the office for information. Location First National Bank Bldg. Phone 19o4.

After a short introductory talk the chair called upon . various workers of the party, all of whom expressed great confidence in the organization in the coming campaign and all of whom seemed to feel that party lines would be pretty thoroughly circumscribed in the coming campaign and that the best of feeling and harmony prevailed throughout the city. Joe Meade was the. first speaker and expressed the hope that there would not be a multiplicity of candidates for the various offices in the corning primary, inamuch as many a disaffection had been known to arise from the heat of arguments in pro-primary campaigns. He called to attention to our rapid growth and the coming importance that was bound to accrue to the city in all county and district matters. Tom Itoberts, as county secretary, spoke of the fact that apparently East Chicago was the only dependable republican city in the county, the only one that could be absolutely depended upon to roll up a good majority for the ticket, local, county or national. Abe Ottenheimer spoke of the court situation and of the necessity of thoroughly organizing all the forces of the party. He decried that phase, of the law that compelled the parties to declare their candidacies six months in advance of election, while individuals or representatives of so-called non-partisan tickets could declare their candidates any time before fifteen days prior to the election. AV. O. Harmon, regularly entitled to e-election as treasurer because of his acceptable record, said that he seriously questioned whether or not ho would b a candidate for nomination if he had to .undergo a six months' campaign; that anyway h.- was more interested in securing for the city an equitable tax valuation than he was in securing any office. Dr. A. G. Schliekcr spoke of the sacrifices that a man had to make if he sought and accepted the nomination and election to the mayoralty: that it was a thankless and costly job to be mayor of the city. The doctor made a good, strong talk for harmony and a strong, united pull for party success. Others who sroke briefly but effectively were Dr. I. R. Johns, Dr. R. V. Hale, AValter Spencer, T. T. Richards, Merle Flynn. John Bochnowski. H. M. Cohen. Albert Given and Leo Bonavcn-tura.

The first Is that of John Gunzenhauser, Oscar Haugan et al.. of Gary vs. the City of Gary. Winifred Hunter et al. In this the plaintiff demands Judgment that the defendants be enjoined from selling property because of an alleged lien, and that the lien be cancelled and fully paid. The second is that of Henrietta Reiser vs. the F. C. Hopmann Company of Hammond. The plaintiff allegest that the defendant, a cleaning company, ruined considerable clothing for her and she demands Judgment for $60.

TIMES Bl'RKAK

AT STATE CAPITAL. INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 6 In spite of the fervent and earnest plea made by Governor Ralston in his message to the legislature In favor of the creation of a central board of control for the state Institutions, the general concensus of opinion as it Is expressed by those members of the legislature who discuss the subject. Is that the legislature will not accept the recommendation, and that there will be no such board created. The governor devoted more space and time in his message to the subject of central board control than to any other one subject, and it has aroused little or no enthusiasm. Most of those who discuss the matter say that such a board of control with jurisdiction and supervision over all of the Btate institutions would afford the finest kind of. opportunity for a governor to build up a political machine that nobody could overthrow. If a governor, they say, was disposed to do so he could appoint as members of that board three machine politicians, or five, as the case might Be, and that this board of politicians would have power to appoint the heads of ail of the state institutions. These superintendents. In turn, would have the power to

appoint all of the employes of their respective institutions. Thus, there would be a direct connection with a machine-building governor and the lowest employe in any of these lnstltu-' tions. Such a machine, it is pointed out. would be capable of use for all

kinds of political purposes, and its ramifications would extend throughout the state. It Is thought likely that a bill may te Introduced in one branch or the other of the legislature to create a central board of control, but the Impression appears to be that it will not get anywhere A good many democratic members of the legislature have expressed this view of the situation, and they probably would vote against it.
