GARY'S ORDINANCE LIKE CHICAGO'S ( i Gary time pieces will not acknowledge the arproach of winter until the last day of October. The daylight ordinance passed by the city council is similar to the Chicago ordinance. Both provide for daylight saving hours from June 13th and lasting- till the last day of this month. Doienes of inquiries reached this office yesterday relative to the rumor that the daylight savinn plan would cease to be in effect tonlgh. However, in spite of short evenings, long nights and autumnal signs, daylight saving will continue in effect until 2 a. m. Sunday, Oct. 31. The clocks which tell the lunch hours will rlill remain, one hour ahead of the time pieces thHt mark the arrival and departure of trains until that date. The shortening of days and present hint of frosty mornings were respon

sible for a mistaken rumor among the steel workers that Gary would be back on old time tonight and many had planned on getting an hour's additional snooze in the morning. SAYS eo OF THE WOMEN WILL VOTE BT MILDRED 'MORRIS STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE WASHINGTON, Oct. 1 At least 30 per cent of the new women voters will cast ballots in the November election. Alice Paul, chairman of the National Woman's Party predicted today. Alargc number, of them, ehe said, will go to the polUs to register protest against present political control by voting with one ortthe other of the protest parties in thelfleld. "The women are eager to exercise the franchise for the first time. That is the extent of their Interest in the campaign," she said. "You mean they are apathetic about candidates and Issues?" she was asked. "How could they be otherwise." she answered. "They had no voice in he selections of candidates or in the making of the party platforms. What Is there in the campaign to appeal to them?" "The league of nations covenant which the democrats have made the big issue in the campaign contains only one reference to women. This is in Article 23. The womon should not permit rauncaiion or me covenant until this article Is stricken out. It is an insult to them. It br&nds them 'as an inferior sex." "Aren't the women lucky to voteifor one party or the other as a rewardfor its activities as to suffrage?" she was asked. "IF they do they will vote, of course, for the candidate who pat forth the greater effort." "Women could control the coming, election and dictate the outcome if they voted as a group," MJss Paul continued. "Four years from now they will vote as a group. The women must draw up a platform of their demands and stand behind it as & unit." " "They should insist that before the league of nations covenant is ratified the women should be given proper recognition In the league. First they should demand equal voice in the selection of the supreme council. They should insist upon equal representation on the international labcr conference or the right to hold councils of their own and ' make their own industrial programs." In an' Around -GARYCONDUCTOR ROBBED ary police officers are still scouring the city today for the two armed negroes who after robbing- Amos Kutsky, a Gary street car conductor lata Tuesday evenig, beat Koutsky over the head and thea grabbed his companion a well known south sido young lady and assaulted her. The colored ba,ndlts secured 353 In cash from Koutsky and rings valuod at 100 from the young lady. Although the young lady sticks to the story that the two ncgros dragged her into the bushes and accomplished their purpose after beating Koutsky into unconsciousness, it is understood that the police scout her story. When she was brought to the police station, her hair and clothes were in an orderly manner and did not show any appearance of having been attacked. Another Gary paper carried a lengthy, sensational and highly colored story o? the affair yesterday. PARENT ARRESTED For failing to send his 14 years oia son Ieo to school. Anthony Vrbank. 1450 Taney street. Gary, was arrestd o na warrant yesterday, found guilty and fined 312.50 in Judge Clemmens court. According to Truant Officer J. B. Sleczer this may be taken as a !n son to other parents who are neglecting to send their children to school. GETS SAD NEWS Receiving the sad news of the death of her brother, William Spangler of Bonham, Texas, Mrs. John McFadden accompanied by her husband Major McFadden. assessor of North Township, left Gary yesterday to attend the funeral. Mrs. Spangler is well known in Gary having visited the McFaddens on a number of occasions. He was an active member of the I. O. O. F. and was grand master of that order in te state of Texas.

INLAND STEEL MAN IS DEAD J. R. Webb, second victim of the Inland Steel company blast at Indiana Harbor a weelc ago today, passed away at the Mjfcy hospital Wednesday night and yestday the body was removed to East vhlcago where funeral arrangements 'are being completed. This morning word was received from the bedsides of the other three of the five injured in the blast, that they were getting along nicely and would recover. The Injured were all brought to the Mercy hospital. RAID ON HOTELS Two women and four men were earrested by the Oary police department's moral squad rn raids on two south side hotels in Gary early this morning1 Charged with prostitution Lillian Roymand of Chicago and three men were taken from the Imperial hotel shortly after 4 o'clock. They were Geo. Koslkas', Harry Kallas and Jim Renes and were booked on a charge of associating. An hour earlier the police arrested Bessie Thorpe of Chicago and Rocca I)c Grozla at the Adams hotel. A gun was found in D Grozia's possession and he was charged with carrying concealed weapons. All plead guilty and paid fines In the city court this mornIt gHOME TANGLE IN NEW YORK 1 INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE1 NEW YORK. Oct. 1. This was New York's first "moving day" since the new rent laws were passed. and it promised the greatest happy-home-and-flretlde tangle in the history of the city. Despite the new law which was designed to save families from eviction great confusion arose from the fact thaj eviction proceedings tisd been commenced in the courst against thousands of tenants before the rent law was passed. There was a division of opinion as to whether the tennarts thus embroiled in litigation could he put out. PARK BOARD DEFENDING ITS ACTION (Continued from Tage One) layed, the harder and more expensive it will be. The only trouble in o:ir city is that this matter has already been delayed too long. It would .have been much easier five or ten j'cars ago to lay out a plan of boulevards than it now is; and if we waited a I?.v years longer it would be very difficult to lay out and create boulevards vitn any system whatever. The planning of a boulevard system does not necessarily mean the immediate improvement of said boulevards. It mans planning and providing for the future, which this city has so often failed and neglected to do in the past. Don't throw your pape? awaj without reading the want ad Daee.

Every Man's Platform No matter what your political platform is or who you want for next President, here is something you and every keen, far-sighted American stand for: a good appearance. clothes that are an INVESTMENT in wear. AND HERE IS THE PLACE TO GET THEM. Here is the place where the smallest percentage of a man's dollar goes into profit for maker and merchant. Here is the place where good clothing gets the square deal all around in behalf of the consumer's pocketbook. DON'T BE FOOLED Cheap clothes are not cheap. They show the wear, look shabby, and fail to give satisfaction. Pay a little more and get good clothes you'll be better satisfied in the long run. See all the new ideas models for every man in our advance window displays.

The "The park board, in planning and creating a boulevard system, may have interfered with the plans of the board of public works and the General American Tank Car Corporation in extending the plant of the General American Tank Car Corporation into and ov;r one of the best residence districts -n the city. But th e park board were working for the best Interests of the city and had back of them practically the unanimous support of the rcsidon'-s of Indiana Harbor; while you and the members of the board of works Wire championing and advancing the interests of a private concern, which admits that not fifteen per cent of its employes reside in our city. "Your statement as to the park board budget and tax levy for thts year is very ambiguous, and if it does mean anything, is untrue, false and misleading. The real facts art: -Tie park board made up a tentative budget this year. The amount as originally given, was changed by the park bord itself when the common council assured the park board that the council stood ready to pass any ordinances necessary to sell the necessary park bond for the completion of the improvements of prks now under way, or any new improvements of park1?. The park board and council were in ocorJyis to how park improvements were to be paid, namely: A part of the expenses to be paid for by money raided by taxation, and the balance by the sale and Issue of bonds.

The tax levy for Lho park board in second class cities cannot be less than 10 cents nor more than 20 centfc on each J100 of valuation t I property. The levy for the park board I recently made by the common council is nearer its minimum than any other, department of the city. "While the ciiy tax levy made t.iis year is much larger than that of lat year, it was raised from 48 cents " 1919 to 92 cents in 192. only 2 cents or this increase was inexcess of the park board's levy. The common council fixed the levy and made the appropriations. The nark board might have taken an appeal from the common! council, but they did not. They were. satisfied.

Be$t Clothiers ate and selfish interests and the forces of crime and Indecency, simply beciute corrupt and spineless public officials are recreant to their- duties and trust. "Your vague and ambiguous statement that the "Fark Board has permuted large expenditures of money, and the city involved. without securing bids, as provided by law, and (not) making and entering into proper contracts for said work, protecting t'ie interests of the city,-' is wholly false, and is either made in ignorance or with the wilful purpose to falsify. Since the members of the park board took office in May. this year, they hav scrupulously followed the letter nnd the spirit of the lnw as to the expenditure of money and the letting of contracts. Their acts and the records Jt their acts and meetings speak r themselves; and they have acted in accord and harmony with City Attorney Crites and City Engineer Wallace, two competent and efficient city officials.

only difference that has arisen betwm-n you and the board of works on one hand, and the park board on the other, is that the park board stood in the . y of the vacation of certain streets arm alleys in the Tark Addition by t hboard of works, and that the- ,irk boajpd refused to be dictated to by yow and the board of works. Any other reasons given by you for removing the members of the park board Is only attempted camoflauge on your part ' bolster up flimsy reasons and excuses "The members of the park I during four apd one-half months in office have given their time to the city without receiving any compensation, and go out of office feeling that they have done their duty to the public and their city, and have not allowed themselves to be dictated and over-rldl'n by the will of one who happens to be mayor, and an ignorant will at that.
