The practice of motorists stopping their cars while on paved highways, so that the vehicle gets more- than 'ts full share of the roadway, Is get

ting to be so common, according to ? bulletin just issued by the Hoosier State Automobile association, that some means of combatting this growing evil must be found, it is declared. 4,In the main," the motor organization states, "this practice is due altogether to thoughtlessness on the part of the car driver. Too many drivers, too much of the time, think and act as though their car were the only one on the road, having no thought for the other fellow. "These same motorists are quick to condemn two farmers in their wagons or buggies, who, meeting on the highway, stop to chat awhile with their vehicles blocking the road. The autoist is angry when he encounters this situation, yet he is just as apt to do tricks just as bad or worse. "If you have to change a tire, pull out off the edge of the paved road, or off to the edge of a gravel road," continues th motor club bulletin. "This will give others a chance to pass you. : Frequently is is necessary for two vehicles to pass each other right at a spot where some other vehicle may be stopped to change a tire, or for some other Durnose."

"If you stop on a paved road, always Dull over to the edge of the

'burrn,' or shoulder of the road, wherever this Is possible. The roadways themselves are too narrow to permit .you to leave your car standing in the main traffic path or near such path. "If you wish to view a sporting event or engage in a picnic, for Mike's i sake, get in the clear of other traffic!" The attention of sheriffs and con-

i stables everywhere is being called to j

this situation throughout inaiana Dy 'the motor organization. "These officers have jurisdiction In such cases which constitute blocking the public highway," the Hoosier association states. "As far as practical, we are urging them to exercise their police powers in regulating such matters, especially on occasions of ball games, picnics, holiday events and such like. "It is up to the individual motor car driver first to think of his own actions in such matters," continues the bulletin. "The fellow who is first to condemn a truck driver for not 'laying over' is the one who is most apt to stop his car in a highway in such a manner that two other cars cannot move past that spot. And this thing of lining both side of a narrow highway or a narrow paved road with "cars parked to watch a ball game, leaving a single lane through the center, if indeed any lane at all is left, most certainly should be stopped, and at once. "In this again it is the individual who is responsible and who is amenable under the law against blocking highways. We hope each driver will read and heed these admonitions."

ST. MARY'S GRADUATES TO RECEIVE DIPLOMAS ON SUNDAY EVENING

Father John Gallager of Newcastle will preach the class sermon at the graduating exercises of the St. Mary's school which will be held at the St. Mary's church next Sunday evening.

The graduates will be escorted to the church at 7:30 o'clock by the alumni of the school. The sermon will be more or less linked up with the fact that Sunday is the day set aside for the celebration of the Feast of Corpus Christi. This is not the usual time for the graduation exercises but is only an accidental occurrence. Choir To Sing. St. Mary's choir will furnish the music for the exercises and Father Walter Cronin, pastor of the St. Mary's church will confer the diplo

mas to the graduates. The members of the graduating class are: (Eighth grade) Joseph Barton, Robert Brandenburg, Richard Harrington, Gerard Harrington, James Mulrooney, Alvin Reeves, Charles Tieman, Myron Hipskind and Francis Cook; (high school) Ethel Bybee, Gladys Boyce, Mary Margaret Laughlin, Almyra Stauber, Catherine Reilly and Ruth Wolke.

The shipping board's police was the subject of an attack in the house yesterday by Representative Gllivan, Democrat, Massachusetts, who read excerpts from what he described as a "typical wine list of an American vessel," and deplored the discrimination which he said was permitted to exist between Americans afloat and those forced to remain ashore.- "An effort to discredit prohibition," was the inter-

"I cannot too strongly condemn this atti!k by the brewers upon the government and its officers, but rejoice that the decision of the supreme court has now removed all doubt on the construction of the law so that the discrimination against American ships which have been seized upon by the liquor interests as an argument against prohibition, need no longer exist."

A blow at the transport of liquors from Canada to the United States is seen in provisions of the budget announced by W. S. Fielding, minister of finance.

The machine was brought back from Delaware, Ohio, by police officers Tuesday night. The officers arrived here at 2 o'clock Wednesday morning. Police . at Delaware will receive a $25 reward as a result of the recovery of the car. Information given the Delaware police by a restaurant keeper led to the recovery of the car. The restaurant man asked the driver of the machine to bring it around that he might look it over as he was in the market for a car. The thief promised to appear but failed to show up and the police finally traced the abandoned car's

"When the government of the United States permits one of its departments to violate the prohibition law on the most extensive scale in the world it helps create a condition which aggravated the difficulties of these manufacturers who have spent millions of dollars to convert their properties for the production of lawful products and who, as a matter of good citizenship, have obeyed the law." The letter further says that the government in violating its own law sets

an example of hypocrisy, unparalleled in the history of the republic.

WASHINGTON, June 14. The ship

ping board holds that "neither the Volstead act nor the eighteenth amendment apply to American ships outside the three mile limit," Chairman Lasker declared today in a letter to Adolphus Busch, third vice president

Anneuser Busch brewery company,- of St. Louis. Confirming reports that al

coholic drinks were being served on American ships at sea, Mr. Lasker as

serted that the shipping board had approved this custom "both from the

standpoint of legal right and from the

standpoint of the life' and security of

our national merchant marine."

"The shipping board has permitted and will continue to permit the serving of liquor on its ships," he continued, so long as foreign flag ships are allowed to enter and depart from our shores, exercising that privilege." Mr. Lasker's letter was in reply to a communication addressed by Mr. Busch to President Harding with reference to alcoholic drinks being regularly served on shipping board vessels

at sea. The matter had been referred

to him the shipping board chairman explained, "since the president is unacquainted with the subject you cover." Approved Wine Lists While it was true, Mr. Lasker said, that an assistant attorney general "in the prior administration had held that the prohibition laws were effective on American shipping wherever operated the present general counsel of the shipping board, his two assistants and the chairman himself were convinced that such an opinion was not soundly based and had approved the inclusion of wine lists as regular equipment of boats operated under the board's

ship. "I do not believe I speak Inadvis

I ably when I state that so long as for

eign ships can enter America serving liquor the lack of that privilege

might be the very determining factor in the life or death of the American merchant marine and that so long as foreign ships are allowed the privilegeof entering and departing from American ports serving liquor that same privilege must be allowed our merchant ships. "If the sale of liquor be prohibited on all boats entering or departing from American ports, there Is no voice in the shipping board that would be raised in protest." Mr. Busch attached to his letter to the president the copy of an editorial printed in the Chicago Tribune, of May 6, 1922. "following a visit to the editorial offices by an official of the United States shipping board." Declaring there was an insinuation that the editorial had been "inspired by the visit," Mr. Lasker said; "I was the official who visited the Tribune on May 5, and I wish to record my emphatic denial that I in any vay knew before or at the time of my visit the views of the editors of th Tribune on the subject. I did not

discuss the subject of prohibition with the editors of the Tribune at that time or any other time since. The fact is that I had no more advance knowledge than any other reader of the Tribune that it was going to publish such an editorial. "Your mean insinuation regarding

tained a castle in Germany; your ac

tion in any event will not displease your German friends whose greatest hope of a restored German merchant marine is in a hurt to America's newborn merchant marine. "I refer to those extraneous facts,

not in resentment but that it may be j made clear that in my opinion you do j not come before the bar of public' opinion with clean hands."

Mr. Lasker made public at the same time the test of an opinion just ren

dered to him by Elmer Schlesinger, j

general counsel of the shipping board upholding anew the legality of the serving of liquor on American ships at sea. The opinion was based largely

on the limitation in the eighteenth i

amendment of its operation to "the United States and all territory subject to the jurisdiction thereof and on recent rulings of the supreme court in

find a man in charge who is competent, quick, agreeable at your service. The farmer finds these same qualities in the man who drives the dark green tank wagon to his door. If you were to enter any one of the refineries of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) you would be astonished to note the air of absorption with which each employee is devoting himself to his job. The same interest may be observed at any point where you come in contact with employees of this Company. This condition is not a matter of mere happening chance. It is because the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) recognizes the fundamental interest of labor in the business to which it is devoted. Throughout the years, it has been the continued policy of this Company, to compensate its employees fairly; to give them steady work; to insure them so far as it is possible against unemployment. To protect the employee who has grown old in the service, the Company has devised and put into effect an annuity plan whereby the employee who has given his best years, or who has become incapacitated in the service, is insured an income for the balance of his life. In no case is this annuity less than $300.00 a year and it may be as high as 75 percent of his average yearly wage for the ten years preceding retirement. This policy gives the employee a sense of security respecting his future. It enables him to do better work and gives him a more vivid interest in his work. Long experience has convinced the management, the employee, and the stockholder of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) that this policy of recognizing the rights of the employee is one of the factors which enables this Company to give to the public a superlative grade of service in the manufacturing and distributing of petroleum products.
