RESCUE OF WIFE; KILLED

COL. RILEY IS Colonel Walter J. Riley of East Chicago was the speaker of the day at the Hammond Klwanis yesterday and having recently returned from Europe, he was able to draw a vivid word picture of conditions across the Atlantic as compared with those in this country. Colonel Kiley told o j terrible industrial, tconomio and political conditions in the countries formerly engaged In the world war. Of all the nations, he said that Switzerland was ia the best condition. Well governed and neutral now as they were during the war, the Swiss have maintained themselves as a happy peaceable country. Of the recent belligerents. Colonei Riley said that Germany was by far in the best condition. In that country, instead of turmoil and discontent, factories are running at top upeed from dawn till dark, and the people are working hard and steadily to regain the ground lost in the war. The lack of this desire to work back to pre-war conditions he says is the principle reason for tha trouble in Greece, Italy, France and England. Of the other principle countries. England is perhaps in the worst shape. With Ireland. Egypt and Indiana on the verge of revolution, this nation is bordering on a maelstrom of trouble which only superstatesmanship and radical re-organization can prevent. In France, Colonel Riley saw conditions shocking and revolting to the uninitiated. Bearing, as she did, the brunt of the war. France is almost two countries. On one side is Paris. Monte Carlo and Nice, where night life and pleasure still hold sway. On the other tide Is the devastated region over which the armies fought. Here is desolation and misery unspeakable. This part of France Is a picture of poverty, starvation and wretchedness, and a shambles of destruction, dotted everywhere with the whitened bones of the dead and the crosses marking thtlr last resting place. You cannot lose sight of the crosses. "The people in Europe hate us," said Colonel Riley. "They hated us first for not entering the war- now they hate us for not entering soon enough. We are damned if we do, and damned if we don't." Andrew Bieker delivered a short talk on his business. Mr. Bieker is connected with the Bicker Brothers Company, dealers in coal, feed and building materials. He sketched briefly the history and work of the company. The silent boost, a leather bill-fold, was won by Bert Shearon, who seems to have a drag with the entertainment committee. With a competent man on watch to see that no accidents occur, the old tank of the Hammond Packing Co. is dally and nightly furnishing much needed relief and pleasure to hundreds of Hammond's kiddles and at the same time is helping put the Hammond Kiwanis club on record for investigating one of the best stunts of a public spirited nature started in this city for a long time. George Gcyer .head of the committee which obtained and prepared the tank for use, reported at the Kiwanis meeting yesterday noon that since Friday, when the tank was first opened for use, every day has seen crowds of children and older folks, unable to go to the lake for relief from the heat, splashing and thoroughly en joying themselves In the improvised swimming tank, which, by the way. is large enough to take care of a large crowd of people. The members decided at the meeting to make this purely a Kiwanis project and they will maintain the tank and pay the watchman for the duration of the swimming season. VARIETY STORE GOES UNDER Hammond furnished a bankrupt thin morning to swell the list 'which is mounting rap-.diy on the records of the federal court at Hammond. Morris J. Cohen, proprietor of the Variety Store on South Hohman street, has given up the fight and closed the doors of his . h o p. Cohen's petition, which was filed by Attorney Floyd Murray, shows debts amounting to $5,352.24 and asisets of J4.1D9.S0. It is believed that the assets will not bring near that figure at actual sale. Mr. Cohen found himself caught In a declining market at a time when the public had not quite become reconciled to the idea of buying the low priced wares which he had handled. He lost heavily through the change of location from Ea.t State street, where it is believed he would soon have been doing a nice business becauso of changed conditions. GARY MAN'S AUTO IS LIBELLED (SPECIAL TO THE TIMES INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. July 27, 1921. Frederick VanNuys, United States district attorney, yesterday filed libel proceedings for confiscation of three automobiles seised in prohibition law enforcement. One was taken Nov.
