In explaining the.-e statements Mr. Wire outlined the organization of the Indianapolis contractors. i;takir.g the point that the organization n;ade it pra-1 p-ally impossible for a coritivu f r to sul-.-titute poor workrr.:ins!;ip and inferior materials for those stipulated in his contract. Such methods, he said, means less of membership in the organization and praitieal elimination frvn the Joe.! building llebl. The organization also keeps the contractor in touch with the national movements amonir builders such as materia' prices, ar;d current wau'fs. He touched on the subject of employers bidding jor tlie services of workers stating that the organization practically eliminated this practi e by not allo'.vinif one contractor to raise the wage scale for a certain Job over that of other contractors. Swell competitive bidding, he stated, was detrimental to contractors, builders and owners through the fact that it shifted labor rapidly from one job to another, made the Male unstable and tended to reduce the caliber of any contractors' organization, thereby hurting the ua.lity of workmanship and affecting building. Wage scales, he nld. were airreed upon mutually by contractors and unions and held inviolate in Indianapolis and other cities where Mich methods were practiced.

CLAIMS OLIVER REMONSTRANCE NULL AND ID

ff'oNTINTFJ) I'nn.M PARK OSK.) w er men employe d instead of CO proman 'the Oliver interests ised. That the Oliver far to -y at pre.-ent o'vns sufficient land upon wb.ich it can construct any size factory that they want was the sentiment voiced by another of the speakers. At present Walnut st. furnishes a direct route from Lapote av. through to Prairie av., leading directly to Hum Village Park which the city so recently purchased. The vacation of Walnut st. will mean people residing in the west side of the city will be obliged to go a mile out of the road tu reach the park, traveling over unpaved streets and through sand and mud. Affects Children. Not only will the vacation of the street affect people trying to reach the park hut, according to the remonstrator, will cause a large number of children to cease attending Washington school, the most complete school building in the city. Cases were cited of how years ago the school children were obliged to trample through the mud to attend school. He stated that he did not want a repetition of this for his children and th;C it was what would happen if the street was vacated. According to the various remonstrators who appeared at the meeting there are about 5,000 people residing in the area who will be affected by the vacation of the street. This ground was bought from J. 1). Oliver seven years ago after a very strong fight on the part of the Oliver interests to prevent it. According to statements, made at the meeting Oliver received a sum of $L'JüO for the property. That the people should now return this property to the Oliver interests and go to the expense and possible legal tighf that they were through but a few years ago when Walnut st. wa-s opened is not the right thing to do. according to the I opinions advanced Wednesday even ing. Jegal Phases. What undoubtedly caused the remonstrance to bo held over for another week were, the legal phases advanced by Atty. Obenchain. representing the interests of certain remonstiators as well as a communication received from Mayor Carson. According to Atty. Obenchain, who noted considerable . law to the board in the course of his talk. Walnut st. is a public utility and for the service of the public and until it ceases to be such, the works board has not the power to vacate the street, as no public street can be vacated by the board to further individual interests, which, according to the attorney, is what will be done by the hoard in case the street is vu.cut.ed. The petition presented to tile board was signed by J. D. Oliver, trustee. A paper tiled Jan. r at the court house by J. D. Oliver, transferring his interests to hid four children, was introduced by the attorney, who stilted that in iew of the fact that the petition was not signed by J. D. Oliver until Jan. 13, it was null and void. A plot was also presented to the hoard some time ago with the petition showing the proposed extensions of the Oliver interests. This plot, when brought before the public utility commission, stated the attorney, was denied as belonging to the Oliver Chilled Plow works. The denial, according to the attorney, was made by F. C. Cunningham, a representative of the Oliver interests. That Walnut st. had not ceased to be a public utility ind that vacating it would be furiaering the lnt rests of an individual which the hoard has not the power to do, were the points brought before the board by Atty. Obenchain. ItcM'iit Action. Considerable resentment because of the action taken by the board of directors of the Chamber of Commerce was expressed by the various speakers. An effort to clear the Chamber of Commerce of this prevailing ill feeling was attempted by former Huilding Commissioner Perkins, who stated that - the action taken by the Chamber of Commerce was by the board of directors only and that their opinions in the matter were the same as any six citizens and had no bearing on the case. To have the Chamber of Commerce sanction this matter would mean having a meeting of the members of the body and then if the organization as a whole desired the vacating of the street that ill feeling Could be rightfully held. Ptrkins also explained how the tracks, which the Oliver concern claimsi to be the reason for vacating Walnut st.. could be so arranged that it would he neressary for only one track to cross the street and t hat one would nut be objectionable to the people residing in that section of the city. Statements made Wednesday evening showed that to open Pulaski st. would mean a heavy indebtedness upon the people in that section of the city and possibly more of an j indebtedness than the city at presj out could stand. To open Pulaski ! st. would mean the crossing of a 1 large number of railroad tracks, and certain legal questions are liable to arise that might make it impossible, acv ording to T,ris't IP.liolt of the board. Kcad .Mayor's Iettcr. Tiie . eurtmunii ation received from Mayor Carson stated that ho had I een i .tiled out of the city and would be uuible to attend the meeting as he wanted to do as he dvsirtd to re sk r t rrloln thlnaa o tb" xvt.

i niVT ItOIUN ARRIYKS. It came early Wednesday morning after one year of waiting. No. not the first day of Lent, but the first real sign of spring, although Wednesday is the first day of Lent. P. J. D.cker. South r.er.d av.. and Howard st.. saw the first sign. It was a real robin, and the sign is welcome following the kind of weather experienced here during Sunday and Monday.

iug. The communication was also taken into consideration by the board in holding the tearing over until next Wednesday evening. Many requests were received by th board to render some decision WV-d-nesday evening, but after considerable explanation that ihe board had certain legal phases of the case to in estig. tte before rendering a decision, the meeting was adjourned. Previous to the discussion of the vacating of Walnut st. the resolution for the paving of Calvert st.. from Michigan to High sts. was contlrmed, while the resolution for the sewer on Vassar av. was deferred. BENTON HARBOR WAR WORKER THOUGHT TO HAVE ESCAPED TURKS Speel.ii to The News-Times: nilXTOX llAKBOll, Mich., Feb. 18. According to the opinions of many close friends, it is now thought that Dr. Mabel Elliot, formerly of this city, but lately a member of the American commission for relief in Marass, Turkey, was not a victim of a Turkish reign of terror which receuitly took place. She was thought to have been included in the list ejf the twenty American relief workers who were reported missing but in a letter received by Miss Neva Duvall. a close personal friend of Miss Elliot's, she said that the workers were swain ped with work on refugees who were the victims -of Turkish cruelty, but she expressed no thought of fear for lor own safety. s REVENUE COLLECTOR ISSUES NEW RULING C.eorge H. Hess, actimr internal revenue collector, announced Wednesday, that persons dealing in what are known as exempt preparations under the prohibition act are now re-quired to file form Ne. uTS under class live. Those who arc already tiled under class three and four have no additional barge to pay w hen fding under class live. The form must be tilled out, signed by a notary public and sent to the local inte rnal revenue otlice. Mr. Hess also announces that th local o!ti e will be open on Saturday afternoon for the single men who work in factories and all others who are unable to come during the week to file their income tax returns. The otlice will ned be oren in tlo- even ings as according to the initial plans., so that Saturday atierpoon is the only opportunity these persons will have, except possibly during the final week. However the large number to handle at this time will cause a great many to be left. The partnership blanks for filing income tax returns have arrived at the local office and are numbered as form 1.063. Form 1.01 0 has also arrived and may be secured there. TRANSFER PRESIDENTIAL HONORS TO DESCHANEL PAIUS. Feb. IS. Raymond Poincare today transferred the presidential powers ef France to Paul Deschanel. The ceremony took place in the Elysec. palace shortly before three p. m. Polncare re-ad his farewell message in the :enat bite Tuesday. After thanking the senate and the chamber for conferring upon him the same honor which it previously had conferred upon Marshal Foch and (ieorges Clemenceau, that he "merited the nation's recognition," the message pointed out the necessity for making peace with Turkey. Ths peace, the retiring president said, should be one that will insure tranquility in the Orient. iVincare also emphasized the need for development of the league of nations into an effective organization, forcing Germany to execute the treaty of Versailles and for complete national unity in working out France's financial and material reconstruction. LITTLE ACTION TAKEN ON TREATY IN SENATE By Associated Press: "WASHINGTON, Feb. IS. The peace treaty went into eclipse again today in the senate. With private negotiations for a compromise already quiescent, the leaders found no one ready tr. speak on the senate floor and it was agreed that the subject would not be taken up during the day at all. Debate may be resumed tomorrow and the compromise negotiations will be continued but many senators bellee the treaty fight will not be revived in earnest for some ti.no to come. With the railroad bill and other important legislation business coming up, the crntroersy over ratification may be permitted to drag on. it was inelkatod today, without either side seeking to force decision.

EXPERTS CLAIM i

ALLIES' ANSWER State Department Refuses to Comment on Entente Communication. (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.) status quo appeared to j lace the weight of responsibility for doing so upon the entente powers or the United States. It was realized that none of these was willing to undertake such a move and consequently other measures to meet the case were considered. As comment ur.on this suggestion involved a disclosure of some of the features of the latest entente note, the state department had nothing to say on the subject. Alternative Sujrsostlon. An alternative suggestion contemplating the neutralization of the entire eastern Adriatic shores and waters was said to be nothing more than a revamping of a project made early in the negotiations on the subject and which failed of approval. There is reason to believe, however, that the general tendency of the premier's note is to invite the United States to come forward with some solution of the problem. At the state department, it was said that the council's note would receive careful consideration, making it evident that some- time must elapse before a rer.ly will be made. While the department ha-i decided not to make public the president's communication and the council's reply without the consent of France. Great Britain and Italy, it was learned from authoritative sources today that the American government looked with favor on the publication of the exchanges and had taken steps to ascertain the wishes of the other governments in the matter. l S. Wants I-iiblicity. A factor In the desire of the United States for publicity, it was said, was the prejudiced versions of Pres't Wilson's note which were published in the foreign press These versions were said to have misinterpreted the president's petition and placed the United States in a wrong light before peorle ef the allied countries. One thing of importance from the American viewpoint which developed today wa.s that such conditions are reached by the premiers in their Indon meetings. at which the United States is not represented, are all subject to approval at subsequent meetings in Paris ut which an American representative probably ill bA present Plenary Powers While this representative will not have plenary' powers to accept or reject any decisions reached at the Paris meetings, he will at least be able to quickly refer them to the state department, thus carrying out the understanding reached in Paris when the American peace commissioners withdrew that thereafter all question arising under the peace treaty nd armistice were to be referred to the various foreign orhcos. It is known that the Paris conference will take up the question of disposition of Turkey and r-s all the entente powers are on r-cord as having requested the participation of the United States, it is expected that Ambassador Wallace-, representing the state department, will be fully advised as to deve lopme-nts. While there is no idea that the American government will consent to accept a mandate of any character, even over Armenia, where the situation is reported to be desperate, the warm interest in this country in the Armenians is so well recognized that the entente powers are believed to be certain to solicit the advice of the United States in making an adjustment of the matter.

KE N State May Send Two Delegations to Convention to Be Held in Chicago. By Associated Press: BISMARCK. N. D., Feb. IS. Possibility of two North Dakota delegations being sent to the republican national convention at Chicago was being dLcussed today by politicians. They were of the opinion that, unless differences are ironed out before. June, both groups, named by two state conventions, wou.d claim recognition by the national body. Two Conventions. The first state convention was held recently at Fargo. The second convention was held here yesterday. The second convention was a consequence of charges by some republican leaders that the first convention was dominated by delegates friendly to tho national non-partisan league. Neither convention detinitely indorsed a presidential candidate, but each named delegates to tho national convention. The Fargo convention adopted resolutions suggesting support for "Wood, Lowden, Harding and others." The convention yesterday did not mention names and adopted resolutions recommend-ng presidential candidates should not tile for indorsement in this state. Leaders Hitch. Leaders at the Fargo convention claimed it had been sanctioned by the republican national committee. Republicans prominent at yesterday'y convention asserted that the Jirst convention was not regular on the ground that county delegates had not been properly chosen. It la expected some action regarding the situation will be made by National Chairman Will II. Hays. ADVOCATE PUBLICITY ON ADRIATIC PROBLEM Py Associated Press : LONDON, Feb. IS. Some of the Indon afternoon newspapers eiisagree with the manner in which the negotiations between Great Britain and the United States have been carried out and advocate greater publicity. The Pall Mall Gazette suggests that perfectly open conduct is necessary in the correspondence "so that the common sense of all nations concerned may absist in the victory of reason and good temper." The Westminster Gazette t-ays that Pres't Wilson's note has created a situation of considerable delicacy and the future relations of Great Britain and the United Suites may depend on the: tact and enlightenment with which the situation is handled.
