Amendment of the present plumbing code so as to reduce the cost of construction in the erection of the thouKands of houses to meet the demand for homes for the Increased number of Industrial workers to bo brought to the city is being considered by the housing committee of the Chamber of Commerce, and it Is probable that an ordinance amending the present plumbing code will be presented at the next meeting of the city council. It is pointed out that the class of material prescribed by the present plumbing code is of the most expensive kind, and that its use materially increases the cost of construction. It Is further pointed out that cheaper material would answer the same purpose and would cut down the expense. It Is declared that the cost of plumbing repairs is greatly affected as to cost by the material provisions of the present plumbing code, and that unless the ordinance is amended, it will be impossible to erect a sufficient number of houses to meet the demand brought about by the additional number of Industrial workers in the city. When the government planned to erect 250 houses on the Oliver tract to take care of workmen on government Mipplies, there was a request made to the mayor and members of the city council at that time to amend the plumbing code to conform with the Rpeclflcatlons of the government. However, before this could be brought officially before the council, the war "came to a close. Mayor Carson declared Tuesday that he is in favor of amending the code, and the amendment when it is presented to the council will doubtless receive the mayor's backing. Stephen Toth and William Krueger Given $100 and 30 Days Each. Stephen Toth, in whose place at 54 4 S. Chapin St., the police found i complete whisky still and nearly 100 gallons of liquor on the afternoon of Feb. 12, was found guilty of havinc the unlawful possession of liquor by Judge Ctllmer In city court Tuesday morning, and was fined $100 and sentenced to 30 days in jail. Toth's attorney, who declined to put on any evidence for the defense, appealed from Judge Gilmer's deel- I slon to the superior court. The appeal bond was placed at, $400. This 1 the second time that Toth has been convicted in the city court on the same charge, but owing to tho fact that his appeal from the first case is still pending in the higher court. Judge Gilmer decided that ho was prevented from giving the defendant a heavier punishment. Toth is also held to the federal grand jury at Indianapolis on the charge of moonshlning, having been indicted by that body once before on a charge of bringing liquor Into the state. William Krueger, proprietor of thr "Golden Glow," 111 E. Washington a v., was also found guilty of having the unlawful possession of liquor, and was fined $100 and sentenced to 30 days !n jail. He was arrested Feb. 18 while bringing liquor here from his home at Niks. Mich. The attorney for Kreuger. like the counsel for Toth, declined to put on any evidence for the defense, contenting himself with appealing th case after Judge Gilmer had rendered his decision. The appeal bond in the Krueger case, being a cash bond, was placed at $300. IUTV. J. C. O'HAIH TO SPKAK. Rev. J. C.

Li POLICE Safety Board Now Considering Changes in Department Suggested by Mayor. Plans for the reorganization of the police department are being considered by the board of public safety, and It is possible that they will be completed by the timw the board holds its next meeting Friday night. There are several changes in the conduct of the department, it is said, that do not meet with the approval of Mayor Carsonr and It Is at his instance that the board of safety is planning the reorganization. The mayor is 'said to disapprove of the system of maintaining three police captains on duty In the chief of police's office, one from 8 o'clock in the morning to 4 o'clock in the afternoon, another from 4 o'clock in the afternoon to midnight, and the third from midnight to S o'clock in the morning. The captains apparently havo little or nothing to do except to answer the telephones, according to those who have brought the matter to the attention of the mayor. It is said that the mayor favors either doing away with two of the captains entirely or having them work out on the streets, looking over the various beats and seeing that the city is properly policed. It is pointed out that the chief himself remains in his oMice throughout the day, and on this account the presence of a captain in the same office Income superfluous. The mayor has already taken the matter up with the board of safety on two separate occasions, and he plans to attend the meeting of the board Friday nlpht. SAYS GERMANY MUST DEPEND ON LEAGUE FOR FUTURE PEACE ly T'nited Tre: WKIMAP. Feh. 24. Germany must depend upon the league of nations for future peace, at home and abroad, and urges that the league should have a more democratic basis. Foreign Minister ProckdorffRantzau declared in an interview here today. He said Germany is already qualified for membership because she now has the most democratic government in the world. "Pres't Wilson's preamble to the league of nations constitution was not too optimistic." said the foreign minister. "His faith in the moral force of public opinion is justified. However, the league should have a more democratic basis. Thus far it is little more than a defensive alliance. It may be good enough for the allies, but it Is not good enough for Germany, which is now obliged to depend upon the league for future peace, at home and abroad. Germany Is qualified for membership in the league because she Is the most democratic nation in the world. "We will make our delegates to the peace conference as representative as possible. "The league provision for publication of treaties is a long step forward." The firj't training school for nurses in Haiti has been established and opened under the direction ami control of the United States public health service.

1 t: P; i V URGE CALL FOR SPECIAL SESSION Democratic Leaders Want New Term to Handle Important Matters. ry Pulted Tress: WASHINGTON, Feb. 25. Democratic leaders In the house want I Prcs't Wilson to call an extra ses sion of congress within 30 days after the end of the present session March 4. They will urge the president to take this action and lay before him their reasons for it at the first opportunity, which will be when they visit the -white house today or tomorrow. While the house leaders do not believe that all the supply bills can be passed by both houses before noon on March 4, they will urge an early call of a new session on other grounds. The present situation in reference to the shipping program and necessity for outling a permanent merchant marine policy will be one of the first arguments. Another will be the necessity for permanent railroad legislation. Impossibility of passing adequate army legislation in the week remaining of this session will be one more reason advanced for an early call of both houses. It will be pointed out to the president that this country will be left with only a handful of men after the proclamation of peace unless new laws are passed. The appropriations committee of the house has found it impossible to appropriate for several special "emergency" branches of the government because they are not permanently authorized by statute, ome of the?; branches, house leaders believe, should be continued for a year.

STUDEBAKER E Motor Stock is Sensational Feature of Day's Market. Short Interest Present. NEW YORK, Feb. 25. The feature of today's stock market was the sensational advance in Studebaker common which was in demand all day At present writing thU stock is up four points.
