T The local office of the Western I'nion has the following today from the company: New Yo.k, July '. 151$. To nil Western I'nion employes: In order that employer" may have a full understanding of present tonditions. it seems proper for n.ft to say that on the. eve of the formation of n Western I'nion assooiat the gi erinn'-n; is considering taking oxer the. telegraph lines because of the threat of an outslue org-it.lznt Ion w ithout membership in our force. .o one would pay any attention to such a threat were not the nation at war. It is therefore pertinent to call attention to rho government's point of view on outside unions as expressed by Ist -master General Burleson before the House Committee on Tuesday last as fo. low s : "I nave never opposed the gove-nmont employes organizing, but if ! telegraph and telephone lines are Taken over the employes should not be affiliated with any outside ui f:i nix.at ion.' The sole affiliation should be ihe government and no outside organization sh uld be allowed to influence their action." From the foregoing it would appear that the policy of the company is precisely lhat of the postmaster general's. When your association is formed it is proposed that the company make an exclusive contract with It under which the company will deal with the association in matters relating to wages, conditions of employes, sickness, benefits, pensions, life insurance and any other matters affecting the interest of employes. Meanwhile you may be urged to do something foolish by self-seeking individuals who hope to improve their own positions. And such an individual representing a small union of about twenty-rie hundred (25"" 1 members, largely Canadian, proposes on his own authority to call you loyal men and women of the Western Union from your work in order to defeat the association which you are about to form. I am confident you will answer 'his a' tempt by an additional demonstration of jour loyalty to your government bv continuing at your post of duty without fear of criticism by right-minded people. NEWCOMB CARLTON. President. A FINE PICTURE. In "The Co-Respondent, at the Ds Luxe Saturday. July 6. "The name of the woman is" Ann Gray, a star reporter on the Ledger, suddenly hesitates to finis.h the sentence. She has been assigned by the managing editor. Jeffrey Manning, to ascertain the name of the co-respondent in a society divorce case, a sensational account cf which appeared In the Ledger the day before Ann is In a bad predicament. She is in love with Joeffrey. and fears her romance will be RETAIL MARKET 81 STATE STREET.

Absolutely Removes Indigestion. Druggists refund money if it fails. 25c nipped In the bud If she tells all he knows. On the other hand if he doe not reveal the name of the alleged oorerpondent the Ledger la threatened with heavy damages in a suit for criminal libel, which would mean the end of .loeffrey's career as managing editor. After a brief struggle Ann turns to .Toeffrey and says: "There comes a time ui ev ery woman's life when she j mu.-t ask !ho man he loves to trust and believe in her. My name or any other name is not to be considered. It hus been your policy to giv the public all the news and they are going to have it." Thereupon she turns out on her typewriter the. biggest scoop that ever appeared on the Ledger, and tho revelation of the co-respondent's identity proves a veritable boomerang to Joeffiey. leading up to the most original and surprising situation that has ever been ihamaf.zed for the screen. The story abounds in thrills, and Is of absorbing Interest from start to finish. SINGER MAKES ARREST N'otoie Colozinpoie of North Harbor. Indiana, was at rested on Sheffield avenue by Officer Sinier for carrying concealed wecpons. OF FOURTH Xever has there been a more momentous and significant event in the history of East Chicago than that which took place yesterday, July 4. 191S. in lesponso to the proclamation of President Wilson. It was a celebration in which "patriotism. Americanism and loyalty'' were the predominating features. Twenty nationalities, grouped around their respective lenders, carrying patriotic banners and all marching to the strains of American martial music and under American flags, each group striving to outdo the others in its display of devotion to the L'nited States, filed one after another in a parade that extended nearly two milts Ions and that covered the principal streets in each ward of that part of the city. That the success of the parade was due to the foreign speaking reople there could be no doubt. Large showing was made by the Poles, the Hungarians, the Slavs, the Roumanians, the Italians and allied groups. The parade started at 10 o'clock sharp and the various wards fell into line as their assembling places were reached. Several of the American lodges marched in units, notable among which were the Elks and Jloose. The Hungarian Woodmen had a splendid delegation and an attractive float. The floats rcr.stituted a very attractive and Instructive part of the parade. Suggestive displays were made by the Kod Cross, by the Daughters of the American Revolution, by the war garden committee and several of. the foreign societ;es. The parade went east on Chicago avenue to Alexander avenue, south on that street to 151st street, cast to Melville avenue, north to Chicago avenue, west to Tod aenue. north to 144th street. west to Earing avenue, south to 150th! street, east to Forsythe avenue, and north to the city hall park. A large platform had been erected and thousands assembled in front of it to I'sten to the speech made by the Hon. VV. H. Raney of Terre Haute. Joe Meade introduced th. speaker, who gave a splendid address based on the spirit of the day and abounding with clean, clearcut, forcible argument and Inspirational syllogisms and figures of speech. It was a very effective effort and was well received. The only thing to mar the success and serenity rf the day was the absence of Mayor McCormack. who was sent on Wednesday by the city council to Washington, where an effort was in progress to induce the House Committer of Con

THE TIMES

GREECE WILL ENTER THE WAR WITH HER FULL STRENGTH WHEN HER NATIONAL CROP CURRANTS IS HARVESTED

N Ato.L', - s.. -v..mm King Alexander, in center of Greece is in the war, but she will not be able to present her full fighting strength until her men have harvested their currants. This will sound odd to the one who doesn't know that currants form the national crop of Greece. That gress to set aside a portion of the newfifty million dollar appropriation to East Chicago and Indiana Harbor. The mayor was looking after some matters pertaining to the parade personally and in his absence some of these were apparently n. f-eet ej. It i j said that the Hobart company of National tJuards did not receive the attention which they merited. They took a fine part in the parade and helped a great deal to make a success of the day. They are a fine bunch of well drilled, stalwart looking young men and apparently were good sports enough to overlook any Inattention that might have been due to misunderstandings. The children, the cadets, the Red Cross girls and other uniformed societies made excellent showings In the parade. All in all. it was a day long to be remembered and one which Is sure to have had a beneflclent and wholesome crtcct upon the process of thorough Americanization that is now in progress all over the district. With thirty thousand sou's participating Independence Day tn Gary was observed in truly an American and patriotic way Gary's immense foreignbirth population tunned out in throngs and showed their loyally to the;r adopted country over forty different nationalities participating in one cf the greatest parades ever staged in tne steel city that was estimated to be over two miles in length taking an hour to pass a given point with the glorious stars and stripes and the flags of all the different nations floating to the breezes with eight bands interspersed. The parade, lead by Grand Marshal L. R. Grkovich. batallion of Gary police, drum corps. Co. I Home Guards and Perry's Municipal band, ended at Froebel school grounds where patrlotc speeches by Judge Charles E. Greenwald. Acting Mayor John Brennan and others were delivered and other exercises in the program of the day were carried out. Indiana over the top in War Savings June 28! Vice President.

GELEBHATIOf AT HARM Indiana Harbor wer.t "over the top" in its glorious celebration of Independence Day yesterday. The ideal weather prevailing from dawn to dusk played a most important part :n bring. ng thousands of people to the mccta of patriotism, as evidenced by the town's population and the additional numbers swarm.ing from adjacent towns and from the larger cities as well, to join in tne of the most magnificent celebrations ever witnessed in Lak court y. It would indeed be unfair to give dilect credit to any representation for the wonderful success of the day. Rivalry for entry into the monstrous parade was so keen that it was clear to the minds of all spectators how citizens could meet on the common grounds of loyalty and express their true brotherhood in a way which has no equal. Mention here may be made, however, of the great men who have made Indiana Harbor what it Is today, and who were proud to lead this never to be forgotten line of march. That formation Comprised the Messrs. L. W. Saric, C. E. Fowler. J. W. Lees, J. W. Brissey and C. E. Potts, followed by the police, the colors, bands. Red Cross, and the following new Americans, Italians, Poles, Greeks. Serbians, Inland Guards. Slovaks, citizens not affiliated with any societies. Roumanians, Jewish, Lithuanians, colored and Hungarians. The organizations marching were selected in view of their numbers. They all carried beautiful American flags and the flags of the allied countries. Each was headed with band music p!aing the popular patriotic airs. The streets were lined with spectators and a close estimate of twenty thousand given. This number seemed to increase later tn the day when many camo from Michigan City to enjoy the special carnival featu re. A great tribute was extended the speaker of the day, Hon. Patrick H O'DonneM. of Chicago, whose address fairly teemed with patriotic interest. He was so heartily applauded during his speech that time and again he had to await until the wild acclamations of delight subsided. Throughout the afternoon a colored glee club furnished music, the songs of the old pl-in'ation days. The spirit of '7t was in the air and the utmost decorum observed. ?'owhere could there be seen any- digression frcm the standard rules of proprietory or patriotism. The receipts will go toward the benefit of the Red Cross, announcement of which will be made at the very earliest date possible. TWO ARRESTS FOR SPEEDING Two men were arrested in East Chicago yesterday for speeding. One was Roy Clinton, proprietor of the five and ten cent store. Chicago avenue, and the other was P. H. Libert. 64S Indiana boulevard. Whjting. Clinton was accused of running his car at the rate of thirty-five miles an hour and was picked up at the corner of 143rd street and Forsythe avenue. Libert was also accused of speeding at the rate of thirty-five mile an hour and was arrested on 145th street. They wil be heard in the city court today.
