In this country we have been doing nothing but taking natural resources and using them up; burning five feet of timber and growing one; leaving 60 per cent of the coal by wasteful mining.

"We have se"n t hundreds, yes, thousands of dollars to foreign countries to relieve suffering which was no worse than people suffer in a city In our own state,'' said a Hammond business man. "We were prompt to send charity abroad, but apparently we are slow to hlp In our own state. Charity begins at home."

VDNON HOTEL TD 8E SOLD?

It Is expected that, n deal will he consummated tomorrow for the sale, of the Monun hotel by F. Wame to an out-of-town man. Mr. Wartie has made a fort una In a few years out of the hotel, it is state!, and it is one of the best paying places in the region. In the meantime there is a keen fight on for the lease of the building vacated by the Model clothing House and it is rumored the Majestic hotel seeks to purchase, it outright and construct an addition. The proprietors of the Majestic turn away applicants for rooms 'very night, and if they do not secure: the adjacent property may build p. larger hotel nt any other p'ace.

More than fifty business and professional men of Hammond, representing the city's trade, thought and vision, were stirred to a greater appreciation of the opportunities of the great Calumet region of Indiana, by an address

delivered at the noonday luncheon of!

the Chamber of Commerce by John E. Ithrop, secretary of the state committee of city planning, who spoke today. Pleading for unity and heightened sense of duty and opportunity in planning for the future as well as in the economic, social and national affairs of the present. I-ithrop created a great wave of enthusiasm among his hearers by the sincerity and power of his message. "We can't live to ourselves alone," he stated. "Every family is in some way touched by every other family in the town and every town is touched by every other community. Bring unity down to local application. ifit down with me in the general manager's office of the Chicago Telephone office for an illustration. "Co east to Michigan City and west to Evanston and consider the population of less than 3,o00,000 people. This is 1917. Thirty-three years away is 2 930. How many of you have children, six or eight years of age? How many of you, can get a larger view and see those boys and girls in 1950. grown to manhood 'n a city so haphazardly built that they would throw up their hands In dlspair? In twenty-five years the tip of Iake Michigan will have a city of 6.000.000 persons. In the office; of the Chicago Telephone Company they figure in thirty years there will be 13,000,000 people In this district. That Is not a fantasy of some promoter. It is the decision of a man Fitting down and thinking of conduits and mains and of putting the company's money into them. Where are those 15.000.000 going to live, what are they going' to do and under what conditions wiil they exist. What are you doing to prepare for them? "The congestion of Chicago's loop district, grows worse each day. One thing is corrected only to create some other evil. Business can't stay there. The cost is too great. There has to be an outlet to relieve the traffic pressure. It may. come quicker than 101S. Imagine this region taking hold of things with some Imagination, getting readv- to provide facilities. Wnat could prevent this region with economic pressure from taking the supremacy awav from Chicago's loop? Who doesn't know that when the subway is provided to take Chicago's people out of the loop it will instead bring In a greater flood? Chicago's loop Is choked to death. Its congestion Is four times worse than anything in New York or anything I know of. "The greatest opportunity under the bright shining sun is in this region. This region in part of the blood and nerves of the world. It Is the heart of the ration. You can't prevent the greatest city of the world coming here right nt the tip of Lake Michigan. All forces of the ration and civilization are piling tip here. How can we meet this? AVith helter skelter development J'ou may have a Frankenstein monster. Tou can take hold of this now and make it contribute to tho efficiency of the nation."
