"CLEAN-UP" OF HUNCIE EXPECTED TO REVEAL ALL KINDS OF VICE INDIANAPOLIS,-Ind., Dec. 14 Charles P. Tlghe. special agent in charge of the Indianapolis headquarters of the United States Department af Justice, declared Monday that with tie convening of the federal grand Jury this morning, the final "cleanup" of Muncie will begin. Forty witnesses from Muncie have been summoned to
cppear before the grand Jury today and it is understood that the investigation of alleged federal violations in Muncie will occupy the remainder of the week. Mr. Tighe said that the cases are not restricted to violations cf the Volstead act, but include violations of the Mann act and election frauds. Press dispatches from Muncie indicate that officials of a number of busi
ness houses are Implicated in the in-j
vestlgatlon. It is said that the reported violations include wrongful use of the mails by some Muncie concerns. According to the press dispatch, 134 subpenas were served there last week by federal officials. It Is known that J. P. Gavin and C. E. Whicker, deputy United States marshals, served more than 100 subpenas there recently. "Filthy Mess" at Muncie "I expect never to have to return to Muncie after this session of the grand jury." said Mr. Tighe in discussing the ' situation there. "If one-half of the reports we have heard are true, and we can obtain a sufficient number of witnesses to corroborate them, the Investigation certainly will reveal a filthy mess. "Probably the greater part of my in vestlgatlon s in Muncie have dealt with violations of the prohibition law, despite the fact that there has been created a special department to supervise the enforcement of the Volstead act. "The Department of Justice should
not be called upon to deal with violators of prohibition and the headquarters at Washington is not willing to
continue the work of another department. "By special permission from Washington we were assigned to investigate alleged liquor law violations at Muncie and Logansport, but I do not feel that such investigations should be forced upon our shoulders. Probe Kokomo Party Federal agents yesterday left Indianapolis for Kokomo, Ind., where they will investigate the alleged liquor violaions at a banquet given at the Kokomo Country club. It Is said that the investigation would include alleged failure of local authorities of Howard county and Ele Stansbury, attorney-general for Indiana, to prosecute
the persons guilty of violation of the prohibition law. Officers of the Anti-Saloon League of Indiana were criticised by District Attorney VanNuys for having taken no steps toward the prosecution. The Rev. E. S. Shumaker is superintendent of the league. S. P. McNaught, law enforcement attorney for the Anti-Saloon League, last Wednesday presented evidence to Mr. VanNuys, which was said to contain sufficient information to aid federal authorities in prosecution.
School Buildings Are Old Half of the 11 public school buildings of Richmond were built 35 years ago. Considering their constant use, these buildings are in fairly good condition, but because of the great' advance that has been made in school house construction and the increasing demands made on schools by the widening range of
activities the buildings are, with the exception of the new part.

DEVOTION TO KING BRINGS RECOGNITION TO ALEXANDER'S WIFE
(By Associated Press) ATHENS, Dec. 14 The devotion shown by Mme. Aspasia Manos, wife of the late King Alexander of Greece, to him during his fatal illness resulting from the bite of a monkey, has created so profound an Impression upon the Greeks that even those who heretofore had Bpared no effort to separate her from the king, have today nothing but good to say about her. For four weeks during which the king fought for life against blood nniiinn hin wife obtained no rest ex-
sept when exhaustion compelled her tn take . little sleeD. The ordeal she
underwent was all the more trying bec&use of her own state of health.
since she Is to become a mother. : Heretofore King Alexander's marriage had not been considered in some governmental quarters to be valid because it had been solemnized secretly and without fulfillment of certain formalities. Since the death of the king, the government has been so moved by the devotion of his widow that it ha3 discovered a law by virtue of which Mme. Manos is recognized as having been the king's legal wife. Mav Receive Pension
This was regarded here as excluding the possibility of raising difficulties in connection with her inheritance of the late king's personal estate. It is also understood that the government will lay a bill before the next Parliament for the payment of a pension to Mme. Manos. Aspasia Manos belonged to the Greek Phamariote aristocracy but was not of royal blood. She was a beautiful girl and the young prince fell in love with her. When King Constantine abdicated and Alexander was
called to the throne, he laid down as
a condition of acceptance that ne should be allowed to marry the girl to whom he had pledged his word. Respect Prince's Wish The government appeared to respect the prince's sentiments but has been
charged with having endeavored by -very means to bring about a rupture between the two and even went to he. extent of expelling her from Greece after the king had secretly married her. King Alexander, however, not only
brought his bride back to Greece butt
nslsted and obtained permission for ber to live In the royal palace. An anomalous situation ensued but the king was quite happy and little did he worry about what the -people thought or said about his wife. Since the death of King Alexander the Greek courts have declared valid his marriage to Mme. Manos, dismissed the opposition of the former King Constantine and ruled that she ahrill Inhnrlt ilaTonilDr'a noranntl
property, which had been claimed byjeve ,g-
Constantine. The high courts also de-1 cided that her expected child will be-:
come the heir to Alexander's estate.

"Documents relating to the withdrawal of the Argentine delegation," says the newspaper, "show something that has not been an entire mystery that the Argentine foreign policy especially since the war has been personally directed by the nation's chief magistrate. Understanding its immense importance for the country, he has delegated to no one the direction of the nation's foreign
affairs. Only President Irigoyen could have had the strength to- say 'no' when j forty-three nations said 'yes' knowing i that 'no' like the ark of Noah in the ! flood, made safe the ideals of i humanity." I

CHICAGO MAY LOSE ART STUDIO DISTRICT
CHICAGO, Dec. 14. Chicago may lose its art colony as the result of the recent sale of the Lambert Tree Studio building to Medina Temple, which plans to build the largest Masonic temple in the world on the site. The Tree studio building was erected by the late Lambert Tree as a home for artists, and about it has grown up an extensive art colony. Many of the painters and sculptors in the studio building have lived there for from fifteen to 25 years. They
are planning to remove to New York, unless another suitable home can be
found here for the colony. Chicago's art center occupies a fa
vored district on the near north side,
Just above the loop district. At one
end it rubs elbows with the warehouse district bordering the Chicago
river, and 10 blocks north reaches the opposite extreme, mingling with the
brownstone mansions and tall apartment houses of the "Gold Cost." On the east Is Lake Michigan, with a bathing beach conveniently located, and
on the west is Clark street, the high
way of pawn shops theatrical hotels,
and, in the near past, cabarets.
Within this district live several hundred artists, musicians, writers
and students. The commercialized bo-
hemianism of New York's Greenwich
village is missing, for most of the
members of the colonoy arc earnest workers, and few poseurs are to be
found.
