TIIE TIMES. Monday, September 8, 1919. President Wilson Snapped on Tour To "Report Direct to the People On the way she asked if any negroes lived in the immediate vicinity and was informed that it was a clean neighborhood free from negroes. She signed an agreement and put up $500. Later she learned that her attorney had included a piece of Indiana Harbor property in the deal which she had not intended. She protested and wag informed that for $200 Borowski could be induced to sign a release. She paid the ?200. On the grounds that she was not acquainted with Chicago property and really had no right to trade May the property which she was holding in trust she now asks that the contract be called and that the $700 she has paid out he returned to her. 4 StVl-mSA Cu'&',i'KJi t r r-feXJ1-!

Gary jitney drivers have voiced their protest through the courts aiK-a:i"t the action of the c.tv council of ilary in

rassir.K the traffic ordinance July 7 t : h I

Its section prohibitms: the operation of vehicles for hire on that part of Hroadwty north of Third ave. This morning in the Hammond supericr court Attorney J. H. ilonroy filed a complaint for a temporary injunction egainft the city of Gary tj prev .-nt the enforcement of the ordinance, the plaintlff being John Volk. Mr. Yolk his started the actionon behalf of himself nd eighty-three other members of Ival 423 f the chauffeurs union. Section 3 of the traffic ordinance forbids tha operation of vehicles carri:iipassengers for hire with the exception of street cars in flopping. solictiiit-. taking e-n or discharging' passenttirs on he part of the street specified. The Kates to the Illinois Steel Co. are at tho i' northern terminus tof Broadway (uvl from the aates to Third ave. is about one-fourth of a mile which it would be necessary for the workmen t.- walk before they could catch a jitney. The matter was brought before Judce

Hardy in Room 2 this ir.orninp audi Attorney Conroy explained the stand of the jitney drivers. Ha holds that the r'ction of the ordinance J? unconstitutional in that it is prohibitive instead of merely regulating traffic as it purports. He says tha street has newr been designated as a boulevard on v. hion I only certain classes of vehicles might be permitted. It is further contended that the city has no right to prohibit certain classes of traffics over such a street. Su h power would rest with the state nd as yet the legislature of Indiana has not exercised this power. It was pointed vjt that an attempt was made to pass a law fit the last session of the legislature delegating such, power to the cities, but the bill was defeated. Attorney Conroy did not ask for a temporary restraining order without notice, as he believed that the jitney drivers would nut be interfered w.th after the notice cf the application for a temporary injunction had been served upon the cflteials of Gary. Judge Hardy set the' matter for hearing next Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. At that time the plaintiffs will endeavor to'bhow the court that the section of tne ordinance is unconstitutional and should be held invalid. The chauffeurs are in the fight to the finish and have had Attorney Conroy working on the case since the ordinance be. arne effective the middle of August. AUTO mis D. W. GRAPE While standing on the street r.ear the corner of Kighth ave. and Broadway in ;ary Saturday evening, P. VT.

John Edwin Nevin staff correspondent 1. n sfrvice1 OMAHA. .Neb. f-ept. V "Well m his stride." i"'rssident Wiif-on today resumed his western campaign to arouse public sentiment in favor of the ratification of the Versailles treaty of pence. The president had had a very quiet day in Iks Moines and declared as his train sped across Iowa toward Missouri that he was ";n fine fettle." . In his stop here he was to be limi'ed to two hours and then he was to s'art northward for a night speech at Sioux Falls and a very strn.uous day in the "Twin Cities" territory on Tuesday, H.s train reached Omaha at 4 o'clock th'.s morning but was side tracked so lint his sleep would be unbroken. line thing that was learned today is that the president hopes to learn the mysterious manner in which so-called l'.olshov is, doctrines are being spr. ad throughout Ilurepe and even bcir.g brought to America. On this line, the pres. dent s-a.d in Pes Moines Saturday iiiglit: "Money coming from nobody knows where, is deposited by the millions in capitals like Stockholm to be used for the propaganda of disorder and discontent and dissolution throughout the world. Men look you calmly in the face in America and say they are for that sort of revolution when that sort of revolution means government by terror, government by force find not government by vote. So long as the world is kept v ailing to learn what kind of guarantees are to follow peaie. that poison will spread more and more rapidly until it may b" that even this beloved land of ours will be distracted and disturbed by It." The president, it is Known, has much information regarding the men behind the spreading of revolutionary doctrines in the United States. It is likely that he will make nt least some of this information public before he returns to Washington. It was said on the special train today that his Russian utterances, coupled with Saturday night's statement just quoted which was repeated here today, rrobably will be the ground work for a lengthy address giving fac's heretofore withheld. It has also been intirrnted by the president's advisers on the present trip that he may be forced to take a sharp stand as a result of the threatened strike in the steel industry. AVhile his telegram to Samuel Gompers' appeal to intervene and get Judge Gary to receive the organization committee of the Federation of Labor to talk over o-ganiza-tion of the men employed by the corporation said he had "not been encouraged" to hope that this could be arranged, one paragraph of his address on Saturday nisht was pointed out today "as actually meeting that condition."
