: Building the Walls of the City Edward F. Trefz of the Chamber of Com- : merce of the United States delivered an address before 500 men in the Masonic hall last evening z that should have been heard by every man, woman and child in Richmond and in Wayne county. The occasion of his visit here is the $100,000 : industrial fund which will be established here : in the course of the next week. We say "will be : established' advisedly, for there is no doubt that - the money will be raised. . Z Tha nnrnnt nf hip. snir.li was to drive home

to the hearts of the men that heard him that 2 every man in Richmond must sacrifice if the r city is to prosper. He came here to impress on r us that all of us are men who have a direct inter- . est in the welfare of the city. I Mr. Trefz is not a theorist nor a dreamer. " Twenty years of actual experience in the pioneer work of city planning and building brought him 3 face to face with conditions that could be solved r only by deeds. So he spoke out of the fullness of experience. : And what was the theme of this discourse to " which 300 men sat spellbound a theme as old ; as Christianity. He preached on service, selfsacrifice. He elucidated in terms of business expressions what Christ taught in the spiritual realm.

t Washington, the richest man of his day in " America, was noble, because he willingly staked his fortune for the cause of human liberty ; bei cause he preferred sacrifice to personal gain. i Lincoln was great because he was willing to give everything he had to preserve the Union, and then in the dark hour when life was ebbing deplored the misfortune that prevented him from giving still more. And so in city planning and building. Rich- : mond cannot be a great city unless her men are willing to do and dare, to sacrifice, to put the welfare of the city above their own pecuniary : gain and reward. Mr. Trefz rightly said that Detroit and Los Angeles and other great municipalities are wonderful examples of enterprise be- ' cause of the men that reside there. Not proximity to certain markets or certain natural resources make a city great and powerful. The men in . the city, the fellows who roll up their sleeves and do things, who have visions and the courage to back up their convictions, are the miracle : workers. Frank Wiggans, a former Richmond man, made Los Angeles. Mr. Trefz paid a glowing : tribute to this man who has added billions of dollars of wealth to southern California. Los Angeles had little to attract people, few natural resources, but Wiggans capitalized what he found, exploited what he saw, advertised what

he discovered, and behold, Los Angeles stands a

monument to his daring and initiative.

Richmond has untold possibilities that await development. . If she has lagged behind, if she has been sleeping while others have been working, the time is here when she is rubbing the sleep out of her eyes and buckling down to the task before her. Mr. Trefz did not present a fixed program last night. He laid down a principle, whose practical application and execution rests with

the community. He presented no panacea that

will cure. He did not analyze local conditions.

That was not his purpose. His speecn was adaptable enough to fit conditions in Chicago,

Skagway, Havana or Montreal The salvation of any city, according to the speaker, rests with the

people in the city and not with any outside in

fluence.

If Richmond is to become the leading city of

eastern Indiana, her citizens are the ones that must push, pull and force her onward. Outside capital and outside brains will not . and cannot do it. No one can save another man's soul, and no set of people excepting our own can work but

the salvation of the city.

The best brains of the city have pledged

themselves to the task of making Richmond greater. The co-operative effort of every man, woman and child in Richmond, boosting, talking,

working, striving for Richmond will bring

about this consummation. The united effort of an enthusiastic citizenship, pledged to one purpose, working for one end, consecrated to the task, actuated by a faith that will move moun

tains, sustained by the assurance 'that success

will come, endowed with the strength of conviction, confirmed in its faith in the city and its destiny, are the spiritual forces that will bring about the material success that every patriotic citizen prays and hopes for.

City Planning

A business man keeps his eye glued on the future. He believes the past is dead and gone, good only for the conclusions he may draw from failure and success. By looking toward the future, the business man plans for eventualities and arranges his administration to meet the growing needs of his concern.

Few cities plan ahead. They believe that sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof, and so they pay no attention to growing needs and future contingencies, the result being that every so often they find themselves face to face with a menacing problem that might have been forestalled long before it reached a point that became critical. Take the bridge crisis in this city as an instance. Forethought and a thorough survey of traffic requirements, transportation and territorial growth made fifteen years ago would have given the board of county commissioners reliable data on which to base action. Since this was lacking, it was natural that the members of the board and the whole community should flounder around in a swamp of indecision and thjat visionary and impracticable plans should provoke blatant discussion and vapid opinions. Even today, no one knows whether the Doran bridge or the Main street span carries the bulk of traffic ; whether more persons cross the Doran bridge or the Main street structure ; whether the Doran bridge is the important link to the factories on the west side or whether the Main street bridge carries this load. The same observation holds true of the proposed south side span. No one has accurate, first hand knowledge of the traffic that the bridges will accommodate. A survey of the city of Richmond in which

J attention would be paid to probable industrial ex

pansion, location of new factory sites, establishment of new residential quarters, designation of parks, reconstruction of the sewer system to accommodate increased population, adequate water supply, changes in the railroad grades and in their right of way through Richmond, would give the city authorities and the county officials the data needed for intelligent decision on problems that are sure to present themselves for solution in the course of the next few years.

The

"Crevice"

"Sixth, the bedroom where my pa- ' tlent is lying la on the second floor, the" windows facing south and east; there was a moon last night, and one of the curtains was partly raised. His door is just at the head of the stairs on your right as you go up, and the stairs on a straight Hoe with the front door therefore the house faces south. Seventh, when we returned to my home, and were In my office, the burly man had to pull the glove off his right hand to g,et the wallet from his pocket In order to pay me my fee, and I saw that two fingers were missing they had both been amputated at the middle joint. Also, when they were leaving, I heard the man who spoke with an accent address him as 'Mac " '"Mac!" It's three-fingered Mac Alarney, by the Lord!" Blaine started from his chair. "Why did I not think of him before! Doctor, you have rendered to me ' and to my client an Invaluable service, which 6haH not be forgotten. Mac Alarney is a retired prize-fighter, In close touch with all the political crooks and grafters In the city. He runs a sort of retreat for alcoholics up near Green Valley, and bears a generally shady reputation. Are you game to go back with me tonight for another call on your patient? You will be well guarded and in no possible danger, now or for the future. I give you my word for that. I may need you to verify some facts." The doctor hesitated visibly. "I am not afraid." he replied, at last, "but I scarcely feel that It Is conformable with the ethics of my calling. I was called In, in my professional capacity" "My dear Doctor," the detective In

terrupted him with a trace of impatience In his tones, "your patient Is one of the most widely known young men of this city. He was kidnaped, and the police have been searching for him for days. The press of the entire country ha3 rung vyjth the story of his mysterious disappearance He is Ramon Hamilton." "Good heavens! Can It be possible!" the physician exclaimed. "I assure you, sir, I had no idea of his identity. He was to have married Pennington Lawton's daughter, was he not? I have read of his disappearance, of course; the newspapers have been full of it. . And he was kidnapped, you say? No wonder those ruffians maintained such secrecy in regard to their destination last night! Mr. Blaine, I will accompany you.

sir, and give you any aid in my power,

in rescuing Mr. Hamilton!"

""Good! I'll make all the necessary arrangements and call for you tonight at eight o'clock. Meanwhile, keep a

strict guard upon your tongue, and say nothing to anyone of what has oc

curred. Have you told your wife of

your adventure?" ' "No, Mr. Blaine; I merely told her

I was out on a sudden night call. I decided to wait until I had seen you before mentioning the extraordinary

features of the case," "You are a, man of discretion, Doctor! Until eight o'clock then. You may expect me, without fail."

Doctor Alwyn left, and Blaine spent

a busy half-hour making his arrangements for the night's raid. Scarcely had he completed thera wbn the telephone shrilled. The detective did not

at first recognize the voice which came to him over the wire, so changed was it, so fraught with horror and a menace of tragedy. (To be Continued) MILLER SELLS PROPERTY

George Miller, president of the Miller Brothers Hardware company, announced today that he had sold the property formerly occupied ' by a shovel manufacturing concern, in Fairview, to the Miller-Kemper company. It will be used for storage purposes. Consideration was not made public.
