REDS OF GARY WOULD WREST CITY FROM II. S.
'Drive Soldiers Out," is Cry
or ramphlets round Strikers Possession.
in
GARY, Ind.. Oct. 14. Circulars advocating the wresting of the city from military control were flaunted on the streets late today. Intelligence officers were Instructed by Col. V. S. Wapes, in command here, to exercise every power to trace the source of the literature. Among some of the inflammable paragraphs on the circulars are the following: "Workingmen of the United States, the capitalists are challenging you. "They are demonstrating before your very eyes that the governmental powers is theirs, for use against the enslavement which they force upon you. The homes of the workingmen of Gary are being raided, their meetings forbidden, their literature confiscated by the military regime which controls Gary. Martial law is supreme. The instruments to destroy the lives of all of the workers are ready. Appeals for Challenge. "Are you, workingmen of this country, going to submit meekly to the use of military invasion and force to break your strikes? Shall the iron heel rule unchallenged? "This is the hour to rouse the workers. "Gather in great mass meetings. Bring to the attention of the unenlightened workers the meaning of martial law at Gary. Show them that it is not enough to strike against low wages and bad working condiions, but that the strike must be directed against capitalism. The workers must capture the power of the state. They must wrest from the capitalists the means through which the capitalist rule is maintained. The answer to the dictatorship of the capitalists is the dictatorship of the workers." Statement by Mapes. Col. Mapes, commanding the Fed eral troops here, issued a statement, which follows: "This is the most dangerous piece of literature that has ever come to my attention. "Other red pamphlets have been severe, but the subject matter has been usually general in direction. This is a direct appeal to their followers to overthrow the Federal troops in Gary. "It is the most dangerous situation we have had to deal with, but it will be dealt with accordingly."

"W. H. Ripley, an Indianapolis attorney, has sent the following communication, a copy of which has been sent to The Palladium by Dr. I. S. Harold,
on the League of Nations controversy, to Senators New and Watson: "My dear Sirs: As a brick wall stands firmly and true when each brick, firmly and truly, holds its position, so American citizenship is effective and safe when each unit citizen honestly and patriotically, firmly and truly serves his country with his devotion and adivce. "A treaty and a league of nations has been initiated by the president, the only constitutional member of ihe nation to do so. It is submitted to the senate for its advice and consent, just as appointments by the president to judgeships in the supreme court. Our constitution uses the same words in both cas.es. In acting on such ap
pointments, the senate can approve or disapprove, with no power to alter by substituting another appointee. The president Is the author and the finisher of both. I forego a discussion of the senate's legal power to make a treaty indirectly by amendments or to approve a part of a treaty, and disapprove a part. The president cannot veto a part, and approve a part of an act of congress. I do insist, as a matter of policy and statesmanship, the senate should act on the treaty in toto and not in fragments. As a whole, does the document contain sufficient benefits and virtues to overcome its faults? No document, especially compromises to amalgamate many conflicting elements, has ever existed without a fault. The virtues and benefits should be preserved and
fostered if it contains the yeast for : future correction and amendments. "Take our own constitution, one of the greatest political advancements in. history to that time. It had faults, but its virtues as a whole swallowed up and smothered these faults. Would you have rejected that document because It permitted slave trade for twenty years? Or because it permitted slavery in some of the states? Or because slaves were represented in congress with no right to vote, thereby giving to some states more votes than others in our congress? Or because of limited suffrage? You would not. You would say, 'as a whole, it virtues are as numerous as the stars in the heavens. Its faults in time will be corrected by amendments, automatically by its own provisions. Our Nation i3 great, powerful and ambitious. It has a great future for good of itself and humanity. But it can accomplish more if it has the help of other great powers. We must beware of egotism, selfishness and prudish isolation. According to the Holy Writ, 'Let him who standeth. take heed lest he fall.' Our Nation is not strong enough to throw its glove into the laps of the World, with a 'we need you not.' "Secret treaties rewarded Japan
for assisting in the war, before we entered the war. We are not responsible for such secret treaties, however wise and conducive to winning the war. But we are responsible to a duty to prevent future secret treaties, forbidden by the League of Nations. We also are responsible to our own traditions to avoid all 'entangling alliances' with foreign nations and not to upset the solemn covenants made by and between them, not affecting us. The proposed amendments are already provided for. "My dear senators, we esteem you highly and desire that history shall honor you as faithful guardians of a public trust. We want to hold up your hands by assuring you that the cream of your constituency believe your duty is to hasten the approval of this historic document. To say the least, quoting Ex-President Harrison on another matter: "It is a step forward in the right direction and not backward." Sincerely yours, Warwick H. Ripley.
High Prices of Corn Cause Drop in Meat High price of corn and other feeds Is given by local retail butchers as the chief reason for the gradual decline in the price of beef and pork. Since the first of October, beef and pork has dropped 2 cents a pound. Farmers say it is unprofitable to feed high priced corn to hogs, as corn will bring more on the markets than stock, and for this reason the markets are flooded with cattle and hogs, thereby causing a depreciation in value. Butchers look for the return of high
prices for if the farmers quit raising stock and devote their time to grain, a scarcity of meat will result and prices advance.
