NEB1L SAVES THE DAY FOR HARBOR BILL Prompt Work on Part of Whiting Senator Hushes Resolution Through r INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERViCEl INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March S. Participation by tho state of Indiana ia preliminary plans looking to the construction of an Tnterstate Harbor at Hammond and Whiting, Ind., and Cbi co go, was assured today through the prompt work of Senator James J. Nedjt of Lake county. Senator Nejdl was informed late yesterday by Gencrat V. 8. Lean that the first Joint resolution was drawn and parsed was "worthless," at it contained no enacting clause and was consequently illegal. A blli, carrying the same provlsh ns as the resolution w as prepared and introduced in the senate at S:40 o'clock Imt night. It wns passed under suspension of rules, rushed thru the senate engrossing room and was rturnod from the house of representatives at 1C- oVlick ready fcr the signiture of Governor MoCray.

HERE'S MIXED UP MARITAL MESS Pete Nogiec a Free Man Even Though He is in Jail Pete Nogiec. 22 Towle street. Hammond, is a free man today even if he is jn jail. He has been rescued from a woman thrust upon him by a husband who alternately' 1 says he is tired of her, -ean't do anything with her, and wants her back. The woman is Mary Lipinski. wife of John Lirintrki of Chicago. Mary is also in Jail. Pete and Mary were living together at 22 Towle street until last night when Mr. Lipinski came to Hammond and asked for thir arrest on a statutory charge. The police brought then, in and this, morning they were arraigned 'in police court. A remarkable story was unfe'ded, Lipinski did lit tie of the talking. Pete and Mary did a, lot. According to their story, John became tired of Mary and offered her to Pete for whom she had rhown marked evidence of 8ffcction. Pete was willing and brought her to Hammond. That was ! six months aeo. Thev lived tobether lor a month when John changed his mind. He wanted Mary again and she was induced to return to Chlcaaro. About six weeks ago Mary and John had another breaking off of relations. Once more John drove her into the arms of Pete. Pete brought her to Hammond again and they have V.ved together since then. According to tre testimony John had proposed that Pete come and live with him in Chicago so that Mary could be with both of them, but this did nut meet with the approval of either Mary or Pete. Pete said he wanted her all right and couldn't seem to understand why the police should interfere as long as it was all right with her husband. However, he did say that it wouldn't be considered Just the thing to do in the old country. The court gave Mrs. Lipinski a fine of $25 and costs and a sentence of 90 days in the woman's prison.- Nogiec was fined $100 and costs and given 90 days on the penal farm. The Juvenile authorities will care for her child during her abivnee. THEY HAD TO CUT OUT JAZZ INDIANAPOLIS, March S. Indiana law makers who planned to brincr the seventy-second session of the general assembly to a .nierry close early this morning with a dance in the corridoi of the state capitoi. had their ambitions rudely jolted during the progress of an imprompt.i ball when Leut. Gov. Emmett F. Branch "stopped the party" by stepping from the senate chamber and orlering the jazz orchestra to pack -up its instruments and go home. . The orchestra was hired by members of the house, if representatives wltii the approval of Speaker John F. M:Clure and they, relenting the action of the Lieutenant-Governor, sent him a sarcastic mes.sige which he construed as "an insult against the state cf Indiana." The message from the. house, signed by Speaker McClure, suggested "that a committee of hi? huskies be instructed to wait -n tho honored LieutenantGovernor to ascertain If there fs any constitutional bir to the members of the house singing." Members of the house, planned themessage as a Juke after the halting of the dance but tne lieutenant "governor refused to view it in that light and announced that he would transact no further business with the lower hotve during the session.

TOTES Building Trades Decline To Accept New Wage Schedule. Prospects for the much needed building boom in the Cslumet region are dark for this year. There are. plenty of people willing to build houses but indications now are that little will be done in 1921. In canvassing the situation the factor which stands out most prominent! -lu holding up construction work is the refusal of the building tradesmen to agree ti any rate lower than the present wajfe of $1.25 an hour. P,'fforts have been made during the winter to bring nhout an agreement whereby the men will accept a nev,- schedule based on $1 an hour but all such negotiations have been flat failures. The men argue that the cost of living has not come down sufficiently to warrant their accepting a cut in wages. The general public disagree with the tradesman on this for they know that prices of food and clothing have fallen to lower levels, much lower in many instances than they were when men were receiving $1 an hour. It is argued that the increase in rentals where families live in rented homes, has offset the decrease in other living costs. This may be true but it is a condition brought abont by this vry slump in the building industry. Property owners have inoreased their rents this year but fVr .TiT it in the belief that the present house shortage would leave th miters no choice but to pay the advance. Only a marked pickup in house building, permitting more people to own their homes and bringing about .wme competition between owners'of rental property can effectually curb the rent-hog. Practically no building has been done thi winter, h remarkable season in which building could have gone on without interruption. Practically nothing is in sight for the spring and summer. It is said on good authority that of a new vi age agreement c"u!d he signed bai'ed on a rate of $1 per hour that by Ar-ril 1 every man that wanted work in the building trades could be em. ployed. If the contractor has the work alienof him it makes no difference tr, tlj. wheth?r the men are paid St or ?2 an hour. He dimply takes the money from the property owner, deducts his share and passes the rest on to the lhorrr and material men. U can do this as long as the pubKc is willing to pay the price, but as soon as the public decided that costs are too high building stops. It is known that one project for ino new houses in Hammond this spring has been called off merely because the craftsmen refused to work for $1 an hour. The question which now confronts the building tradesmen is w. ether they wish work this year at $1 an hou instead of remaining idle while waiting to gAt Jt.25 an hour. They have it in their power to .start things moving. ROTARY CLUB FOR DAYLIGHT SAVING After a lively debate at the noonday luncheon of tiie Hammond Rotary c.Iul, the daylight savings plan as adopted by the Hammond city council in conformity with similar action by the cities of Chicago and Gary was endorsed by practically a unanimous vote. While it was admitted that the pian played havoc with railway time tables and schedules it w-as conceded that the benefits- far outshown th" disadvantages. The hope was expressed that the plan could again be made country -vide in spite of the opposition of the farmers and others. The announcement was made that Governor MoCray had vetoed the Hammond bill that created a separate utilities taxing district for the purpose of making it possible to re-habilitate the Hammond water works. The only explanation made was that it created a bad precedent by permitting a municipally owned public utility that was not able to finance its own re-habilita-tion and expansion to do so by taxation. This now puts the water question back -up to the present city administration for solution; the proper solution of which will cast $1,500,000.00. SMALLPOX ATROCKFORD ROCK FORD, 111., Marc-.i S.
