"I am in favor of a special session of the legislature, and believe that one should be called, and that the suffrage amendment should be ratified by Indiana," he said. "Indiana should do her part in granting the vote to worn-re-Len, and should not allow other states to do her share.

Thousands Relieved When Yorld Spins , On; Had Expected Last Holocaust

(By Associated Press) J NEW YORK, Dec. 17. Astonishment was expressed by the superstitious when the earth did not come to an end today. The ominous position of the planets had been well press agented and soma astrologers and persons versed In witchcraft, had maintained that at the precise moment when the major leaguers of the Solar system formed themselves in a straight line, with Neptune, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus and Mercury on one side of the Sun anfl Uranus on the other, the earth which had moved four or five solar paces to the front of the line, would-behave like the one horse shay. , Scientists had scoffed the Idea, but the superstitious ones recalled having lighted - three - cigarettes with one match or having walked under a ladder or having done In recent history times one of the thousand - and one other things known far and wide as omens of evil days. ' Porto Rlesns Ask Holiday. Students in Porto Rico are reported to have been so unfavorably Impressed with their chances for continuing life yesterday that hey asked for a holiday to prepare for the worst. Harold Jacoby, professor of astronomy at Columbia, intimated that their actions might have been due to the desire of youth everywhere to have a holiday. He and many other scientists maintained that the effort upon the earth of the planetary alignment would be nil. - Astrologers have predicted the end of the world on somewhat similar occasions for centuries. As early as 1186, the world escaped one of their threatened cataclysms. One disap pointment at the scare did not prevent Stoffler from 'predicting a universal deluge for the year 1524, a year, as It turned out, which was distinguished for dron eh t. Mother ShipW, "witch" of Tudor times, was credited with being equally sure that 400 years after her time in 1881, to be exact, the world would come to an end. The prediction caused such 'agitation in England when the date she set arrived. Thousands of persons deserted their homes and went out into the fields to await annihilation. Various religious cults have made a specialty in more recent years of specifying an hour as the earth's last, setting forth scriptural or pseudo-scientific arguments in support of their contentions. Professor Albert F. Porta, a meterloglst. Is given credit for first thinking up today s catastrophe. , CHICAGO, Dec; .; 17.

Mr. Frost said that for a month letters have been pouring into his office Whistles Announce End of World in Indianapolis; Wait End in Church (By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 17. One long weird, shrieking whistle, then others less strident, finally practically all sirens In the city, mingled with the ringing of a number of bells, broke the stillness of the early morning In Indianapolis today. This was followed by the continual jangling of telephone bells in a local newspaper office. "I guess It's notice of the end of the world," said one woman tremulously "The whistles are calling the people to church and I'm going." It developed later that a throttle on a whistle' at a railroad roundhouse had become stuck, starting the din, in which the other whistles joined, without knowing exactly why.

PALMER DENOUNCES PROFITEERS; OPENS BATTLE TO DEATH " (By Associated Press) , CHICAGO, Dec 17. Attorney general A. Mitchell! Palmer's 'plan for a fight against high living costs today was launched in Illinois. He outlined It-last night to 400 state and city officials and representatives of women's clubs called here by Governor Frank O. Lowden. Today" they, returned home to put into practice that part of the campaign possible without further ' legislation. Formation of fair price committees in every community and buying by women, who, Mr. Palmer said, represent 90 per cent of the nation's purchasing power, of nothing but actual necessities, until prices come down, were especially stressed by the attorney general. Holding of "conservation and economy" meetings in every community, use of influence by mayors and prosecutors to stabilize Industrial condi tions and immobilization, of the "four minute men" to deliver ''work and save" addresses in theatres each night were other steps advocated by Mr. Palmer. Profiteers the attorney general termed "devils" and ho warned . the mayors and states' attorneys to "gq after" them "with all the power in your command, and hang them as high as Haman before you get through with them. "The country needs to quit fighting and go to work on a maximum production," he said, adding that 10 per cent more, production would cut 20 per cent from present living costs and 10 per cent reduction of buying of unnecessaries would lop off another 20 per cent. - Mr. Palmer's platform for reduction of cost of necessities included enactment -by congress of laws extending government control of . food and food prices for six months after the peace treaty 1 ,tV; Stnt Wiggles Ouiel Clinch;, titmotXfotU-Porta t (By Associated Press) SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 17. Prof. Albert I. Porta, San Francisco meteroloigst, frota whose deductions on a planet configuration, tho prophecy of the world coming to an end' today was said to haVe sprung, reported" today tho prognostications of - the - world's demise were greatly exaggerated. The rotation of the sun preventing a pull of tho planetary phalanx on any one placo of the sun's surface for any great length of time, would prevent the formation of any sun spot, Professor Porta said. It was htis sun spot that ehe feared. . Heavy electro-magnetic, energies, produced by the tension of the planets on the sun would produce a huge sun spot -which would in turn cause tho cataclysm, but which event is prevented by the sun's rotation," Professor Porta said.
