This was shown this week when Pilots Parmley and Milnor. of the Intersta'e Air Line Company of Chicago, announced their Intention on Monday of remaining in this city for another week. They expected to leave last Sunday. Since coming to Gary last week the two popular young air-men have taken over one hundred passengers on flights over the- city of Gary. There is still a long watting lift and before the end cf the week it is probable that the list will reach the two hundred mark. Gary has gone bugs about the air game. A number of passengers who had already made one flight found the game so exciting that they asked for a second trip. A number of Gary people are. contemplating purchasing machines as soon as the city secures a permanent landing site. Next week the pilots will take the machines back to the hangars in Chicago, where they will be given a general overhauling by a squad of mechanics. This is done after the engines have been operated so many hours. Their next stop will be at Kankakee. III.

SHOE PRICE IS ENTIRELY UNJUSTIFIED TConttnued from pare ona.1 the usual proportion, due to the more marked increase in the price of packer hides. EVERYBODY OETS BUSY. 2. Though there was an Increase In the cost of hides to the tanner, the prices of his product leather o,. - : ed to a point that could not be Justified py me cost or producing It. This conclusion Is supported by the high rates of return on Investment received by tanners. 3. The cost of manufacturing shoes Increased greatly between 1314 and 1917. but as evidenced by the high rates of return on Investment not an extent that warranted the prices at which manufacturers sold their products MTAILiaS PBOriTS IN CUE A BE. 4. The- absolute margins of rroflts taken by retail shoe merchants per pair of shoes grew wider as their costs of shoes increased because their rata of profit remained substantially without change. 5. As a result the public had to pay rricea for shoes that could not be Justified not only because retail shoe dealers took too much rrofit but because the dealer had to pass on to the consumer the excessive profits received by butchers, for hides and also the excess profits of tanners and shoe manufacturers. SOUS SEX. IE 7 STJOQE3TED. The report is accompanied by three recommendation for "relief from the Intolerable prices raid by consumers for shoes." These are: Rigid enforcement of the laws against monopolistic control of commodities; legislation prohibiting producers of hides from engaging in the tanning business, and adoption of a device In the distribution of shoes that will acquaint the consumer with the selling price of the manufacturer. 1 ' J ! Grocer' Up Against It. "I have been up against It for past 3 years suffering from pain in my stomach and side until I was considering giving up my grocery business. Doctors and medicine did not help me. I heard of Mayr's Wonderful Remedy through a friend in Buffalo. The first dose gave me more benefit than all the medicine I had taken before and am now feeling as well as ever in my life." It is a simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the intestinal tract and allays the inflammation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ailments, including appendicitis. One. dose will convince or money refunded. At druggists everywhere. Adv.

SAYS CUEIST Milk dealers who have not been bothered much f..r several years will be wntehed clostly from now on by th Hinmond health department. Daily tests of milk samples taken from th; wagons nnd stores in various parts of the city will be made by City Chemist l.ockhart. Ho now has the city laboratory In condition to handle th.3 khd of work, which is an important item in other cities Mr. Ixickhart tested a number of milk sanipl'-s and has found I hem up to standard. He also tested a sample bottle of beer from the load brought across the state hno last, week by Indiana Harbor men. The owners claimed H was nrr beer but the analysis showed it to contain about two and one-fourth per cent, alcohol. Tests of the city's drinking water during the last three days of July and the first two days of August shows th. water was good three days and bad two. " sifge of hot wrathcr from July 23 to SO would account for Hie increased liollution of the supply at th-.: intake." says Mr. Lockhart. "Uhilr; the doseage of chlorine cas was sufficient to keep the bacteria count down there, was evidence cf sewage pollution on July 23 and 30." Following Is the daily record: Bacteria Gas Date July 23 July 30 July 31 August 1 August 2 Per C C. Formers Condition 50 13 6 Present Present Xone, None None Bad Bad Good Good Good RAILROAD UNION CHIEF IS AROUSED (Continued , from page one.) strength of the labor union? has been exerted to wrest from capital some share of the profits for tho wage earners. "There has b--en a perpetual struggle by the workers to maintain a tolcrabl? standard of existence; on the part of capita! to amais greater profits. At times both Fid' s could ignore the needs ol th-? public. But now the very growth of the labor organizations has brought Into their ranks a great mass of thi consumers. Th- laiger number of th wage earners now constitute a large i,crc nlae of the people.. The extension of industry h-ir. changed he nature of the previous struggle. "For whatever the worker received in wages he must spend for the nerressitie? of life. In addition he is always compelled to pay to the employer an excesEive profit on his own wages. The cost of his living is determined by the sum he earns plus the profit he Is charged oa his own labor. And as a group labor I is forev r prevented from bettering its lot because of the profits exacted by the employer. The hope of a finer H'e is never realized. So long ns consumers are forced to ray extortionate profits on their own earnings to a third interest there is no solution of the industrial problem. "We find that this third interest absolutely controls and dominates the management "of industry. It fixes wages and controls working conditions. It fixes th'? prices C'f commodities without regard to the needs of society, or the necessities of producers and consumers. We have a democratic form of government, but an autocratic control of industry. "We exist under government, but by Industry we live. Under such a system the majority of a democracy can through their government enjoy only such rights and privileges as an mitoeracy in industry permits thern to receive. This country was peopled by a race wh sought within its boundaries religious freedom. It was established by their descendants through revolutions as a land of political freedom. We now demand that It become the home of industrial freedom." Institute Program Complete Dr. Winship of Boston To Head Instructors of Lake Co. Teachers' Meeting. SPECIAL TO THE TIMES! CT.OWN POINT.
