CARL WOLF CALLED TO NAVY SERVICE

BY PRESIDENT'S SWEEPING ORDERS

Madame Amelita Galll-Curci will remain In America for a while. There are twd reasons. !, One Is that the people- are so kind 'to her. they admire her art ao moch. The other is that the German, submarines lack discrimination. They'd 'as soon puncture a liner carrying a renowned diva as a cattle ship. "It it no Joke, this submarine busi

Two Thousand Signatures Put

to Statute Plea

The Women's Belief Corps reported today that two thousand signatures have been secured on petitions to county commissioners for the erection of a statue to Oliver P. Morton in the northeast corner of the court house yafd. It is the plan of the Organisation to present the petitions with the neces

sary percentage or voters signatures before women Vote in the Oct6ber election. This will save much complication. The Relief Corps will take advantage of the new system of registration in getting signatures. Since all persons who vote at the constitutional convention delegate election must register at the county clerk's office at least twenty-nine day betOr th election, petitions will be placed near the place of registration. In this way, every voter will have aft opportunity to sign the petition without going out of his way. In the near future, the organisation will consider the advisability of keeping, some person near the petition to call attention to it DUAL POWER CAR HERE

"Sage of Richmond," or at least that is the title he is known by around automobile row in Indianapolis. Perhaps down in Richmond he is Just com

mon t Mnrris Jones. But not so in

Indianapolis, for of all the men on the

row, that know attd HKe J. Morns Jones, h6 is Just "Johsey" or the "Sage of Richmond."

When everybody was swarming the William Small company headquarters and bemoaning their fate at not being able to set automobiles because of the

railroad car shortages. J. Morris came

to the Hoosier Capitol and toos in shows. He refused to worry over such things as car shortages. Here is the way Jones sized up the

situation. "A shortage Of freight cars has really proved a stimulant to the motor car business, said Jones. The situation has caused a great deal of confusion and worked hardships on manufacturers, dealers and users alike on account of the inability to secure

enough cars to transport tne rinisnea .Ut6mo'oiie to distributing points." "But eventually, continued Jones to a gang of Indianapolis newspaper men, "the whole situation will be turned into a blessing. Never before has the necessity of the automobile been so well demonstrated as during thi3 freight shortage. We have heard for

years about the automobile as a luxury, but no better example of the mo

tor vehicle as a necessity has ever developed. In every section of the Unit' ed States there is a serious shortage

of motor cars. due to the inability or the railroads to handle the motor products. The freight car shortage has effected every line of industy and mo

tor vehicles have been employed m unheard of fields to take the place of

the usual railroad transportation. The

motor car has been tested in this situation and proved efficient The tie-up coming in the most severe time in win-ter-a period which heretofore, the motor car was supposed to be more or less impracticable. City merchants onii mflTmfptirfirs have made deliver

ies by use of the automobile instead Of waiting for relief from the railroads. "The whole freight car situation has simply demonstrated once more the extensive fields for the automobile which are still open. "So," smiled J. Morris JoneB, Chevrolet dealer at Richmond, "dark clouds often have silver linings and the greatest adversities often prove to be blessings. So why kick?"
