In London recently a man was sentenced to three years' imprisonment after a series of automobile thefts f rom -which'he cleared between $2,000 and $2,500 weekly. He conducted: himself as a member of the aristocracy and so when he drove away from a highclasshotel in a stolen automobile, it caused no suspicion. He delivered the cars to accomplices who after changing them sold them. The number of automobiles stolen daily in the United States is a formidable one. Thefts reported to the Richmond authorities daily from

Indiana, Ohio and Michigan cities indicate the

ing courses in industrial plants are a tremendous factor in promoting production and nowhere can training yield larger returns than in the case of foremanship. Nothing of the scope and character of this book is now available for hundreds of thousands of foremen in this country. Government investigation shows that the great major

ity have worked up from the ranks without anyj special training, and while each has undoubtedly ;

j demonstrated his ability in a practical fashion,

yet a broader background of trade knowledge and j more thorough grounding in approved methods' is admitted to be the need of the majority. The training service announces that this in-' teresting contribution to industrial literature will , probably be ready for free distribution the latter , part of June. i

Mr. Hoover s Survey ' . i The Washington Post characterizes Herbert ! Hoover's survey as the best economic review of j European conditions that has been given to the!

American people. "Mr. Hoover is a typical American in his mixture of sympathy, idealism and practical common sense," says the Post. "He unconsciously strikes a hard blow at the league of nations when he describes the practical steps

that must be taken to rescue Europe and the part

enormous , proportions of the unlawful practice, j that the United States should assume. Evidently

The surest method to check this evil is to inflict

a punishment severe enough to deter the thieves. Not so many years ago, horse stealing assumed gigantic proportions in the United States. Vigilance committees and other organizations of farmers and horse breeders and traders, by a relentless campaign and strenuous methods of punishment, soon made it decidedly unhealthy for live stock thieves. One of the best checks to thefts of automobiles would be a nation-wide organization, with branches in every hamlet and remote country district. The appearance of a strange automobile would soon arouse enough suspicion to prompt a sharp questioning of the driver and his detention until his ownership to the car KacTbeen fully established. Richmond has been annoyed by boys and men who take, cars for "joy rides", abandoning the car on a side street after the frolic. Leniency should not-be shown persons who make use of other people's property. Heavy fines and imprisonment in the county jail are suggested as a methoS to break up the nuisance.

Government Publishes Free Book for

There will soon be available for the asking a jfi ook on foremanship which the government has

prepared for free distribution among manufacturers and foremen in this country. The volume gotten out by the training service of the department of labor and is designated as a prac-

t:i:al means for working immediate improvement irt American production methods. According to

THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK KEEP GIVING CREDIT Bread and meat are not the only essentials in giving life to the body. There are those who starve on these. Withhold credit and appreciation from a man and you start to starve him! Keep from him that which gives life to his soul interest and you lead him away from Hope itself. Give credit where credit is due. Keep giving credit all the time. Even tho you may think that a part belongs to you, still encourage and build life in your friend by continual credit where it is merited. Nothing Inspires more than getting your desserts. There is always honor and glory enough for all. It's a big world, and there are millions of things still lying around undiscovered and undone. Do your part as it comes, but keep giving credit to others who as nobly work on. No worthy act ever becomes commonplace. Each effort that you make is an important step for you and the world. For we are all associated. We are all our Brother's Keeper. Then also, we are his helper, too. Keep giving credit. More honor and glory comes back to you than ever leaves you when you magnanimously applaud the other fellow. When the controversy arose many years ago as to who most deserved the great victory achieved against the Spanish Fleet in Cuban waters, Admiral Schley the American, took his place with the noblest heroes of the earth when he exclaimed: "There is glory enough for all!" Keep giving credit.

By What Stages Did City Develop to Present Size

Three cross-sections of the history, and especially of the Whitewater valley, of the city of Richmond, show how the town has grown in prosperity, sixe and influence. In 1853, there was not a solitary building, except one mill, in the valley cf the Whitewater. One railroad

bridge crossed it and the old covered Main street bridge. Eighth street was

INDIANAPOLJS. Ind., June 14. Tables showing the percentage of increase in the assessment of farm lands In Carroll and Randolph were submitted to tha state board of tax commissi6ners yesterday by field representatives who are meeting with county boards of review. The tables merely show the values placed on lands by the assessors. The assessments indicated are not final, as they may be changed by the board of review.

no political inventions or experiments are needed. Direct assistance, not too recklessly given, is the

prime need. , Mr. Hoover has had much experience with the populations of stricken areas, and is patient with those suffering from 'economic delirium tremens,' but he is not deceived by his sympathies. He takes note that Europeans are not at work as they should be, and he suggests that the United States in extending aid shall control the expenditures and make sure that there are no misapplications of funds. "With the coming of peace the stagnation of the peoples will disappear to a- great extent, in his opinion. They will need assistance, however,

even under the most favorable conditions. Assuming that this assistance will be forthcoming, he foresees rapid recovery in the smaller nations and satisfactory recovery in the larger ones, always provided the people will settle down to hard work. Unless they do begin production, the world will suffer a period of acfrte food shortage, even though Americans should work overtime to relieve Europe. "The question of dealing with Germany is illumined by Mr. Hoover's statement. Especially important is his warning that 10,000,000 or more Germans may emigrate to Russia or the new world if the living conditions in Germany become too grinding to be borne. In this emigration is the possibility of a complete change of world conditions through the Prussianization of Russia. That must not be tolerated. Neither can the United States permit Germans to enter this country. Sentiment and past relations cut no figure in the face of such an invasion. The Huns will be kept out in the end, if the Americans

Demas Coe, sportsman-extraordinary, et al., sjent last evening enjoying themselves on the banks of a stream in the vicinity of Dunlapsvllle. One of the pleasures of the outing was a swimming party in which Coe participated. Clad as were the others, only in his birthday clothes, Coe assumed the correct posture of a diver upon the improvised swimming board, and cried out: "Here goes!" With that he entered the water not unlike a huge bull frog, and the hills and dales surrounding echoed with the sound of the splash. Coming up with his anatomy plastered with mud from the floor of the stream, Coe staggered and swayed un

til he gained a. -comfortable footing between a series of sharp rocks. "Whew!" sputtered Coe," that river wont hold water any longer. I jammed my arms through the bottom clear up to my elbows." Henry Farwig, local restaurant man. was called before the board of tax review the other day because it had been learned his home was assessed very low. He smiled while the board tacked on a raise of $1,000, proving himself a good sport. But when he got up to go out, he met a friend coming in. "Come away, John, he cried, "that is no place for a poor man. But if you must go in, for the Lord's sake don't sit in that chair I've been sitting in. It's bad luck."

Among those conspicuously not on hand to meet the NC-4 at Plymouth was Mr. Arry Awker, the sour graper.

away north of town in the country. The depots were two small buildings standing one on each side of the track, and about the size and shape of freight cars. In" 1885, the Doran bridge had been built, and the Starr Piano works were in the valley, but otherwise the scene was not much changed. It was at this time that James M. Starr wanted to present the whole Whitewater valley to the city, provided less than $1,000 was spent in improvements, and the city couldn't see it. The valley had its period of gigantic expansion and growth in the years between $85 and 1901. Several large buildings were built, mills and factories and the city light plant were located there, and it is estimated about a million dollars was spent in this period.

an average of $130.30 an acre for land

and improvements. In 1915 the average assessment for land was $36.48 an acre and $43.50 for land and improvements. These figures show an increaseof 219 per cent in land assessments and an increase of 199 per cent In assessments of land and improvements. S. N. Cragun, member of the tax board, said the Randolph county land assessment, as indicated in the table, was too low and that the board of review would be called upon to bring it up. In event the boards of review do not bring up assessments to true cash value the state board may finally pass on any assessment.

Is to be no modification of the war prohibition law still be milk, and one glass at a sitting will be about all

that any ordinary person win be wishing to drink. The same might be said of practically all so-called soft drinks. As foods or thirst-quenchers, they are normal; they do not, by their very nature, invite excess or protracted drinking. Why, then, even well-meaning temperance workers should deem it necessary or desirable to perpetuate the saloon, or anybody should expect that the name of the alcoholic' drink without its nature should have any virtue in the temperance cause, is a question

difficult to answer. Yet after all, perhaps there is no need of attaching too much weight to any well-meaning efforts to find an exact dry parallel for the familiar type of saloon now doomed to disappear. No parallel will be found, for when the alcohol is no longer In the saloon the saloon's nature will Inevitably change. It may keep its name, it may keep its bar and fittings, it may retain Its much-discussed foot rail, its mahogany, and its gleaming brass and silver, but when the destructive force is eliminated, the saloon will tend toward better things. Its patrons may come with the same jld impulse, but they will find themselves withheld from the old self-degradation. They will find companionship and friends, perhaps, but will discover a new stimulation In conversation and intelligent discussion of current interests in place of the old physical stimulation of the drink itself. So the saloon cannot possibly keep Its old associations, even if every effort shall be made, for the present, to retain them. For in the saloons that may be In existence after the dry law comes into effect will be something inherently constructive instead of the old destructivism. That constructive element, true to its nature, will build where the other tore down, and the frequenters of the dry saloon will be a new, a more wholesome and, on the whole, a happier set of people than the old saloon crowd. They will demand and find new intents, because they will be free at last from the blighting Irend toward Inebrity.

in the United States, for beyond any doubt a very

great number of the people in this country who have a business concern in the prohibition question are preparing to see the saloons out of business completely by July 1. So far as these people are liquor dealers, they are unloading their interests with as little financial loss as the situation allows. If they are not liquor dealers, they tie planning to produce and sell something or other for which they imagine that the absence of liquor will stimulate a demand. Among these, candy manufacturers are expected to get more business wherever there is a wet district to go dry on July 1. It is argued that people who ran no longer indulge a taste for alcoholic drinks will naturally spend more money for sweets, and articles have been "written within the last few months purporting to show that In all newly dry territory the candy business has" made sudden gains. For a similar reason, the dairymen are looking to take advantage of the coming tb-y time by offering milk drinks in new forms and new places. They urge the adaptation of bar fixtures to dispense this product of the dairy, and suggest milk bars as a proper and desirable substitute for the old-fashioned saloon. Various organized interests have already given much attention to the idea of a "dry saloon." meaning a tiarroom dispensing only soft drinks, as a substitute for the alcoholic drink shop. All this, of course, is natural enough; but so far as these efforts tend to perpetuate everything associated with the drinking of intoxicating liquor except the alcoholic content of the drink, they are certainly questionable. TThat milk is a more reputable drink than beer, nobody Iwould deny; but the very reputation of milk as a food would argue against the likelihood that it could become

popular as a tipple. All the names that have been for generations associated with alcoholic drinks cocktail, fjzz. punch, julep, highball, and any number of others may be used, as they are now being proposed, for milk con-
