Johnson never had any thought of laying the ground word for a bolt and that he will neither lead a holt nor Join in any defection that may result from lnharrnony at Chicago. These assurances affectually dispose of rumors which connect Sen. Johnson's name sith a possible split growing out f the Chicago convention. Ilorali May Walk Out. Sen. Borah, on the other hand, is just now in a frame of mind to walk out of the republican national conv ntion in case the platform does not declare unequivocally against the whole league of Nation's scheme. Lodge reservations and all. The fight against the treaty will be led at Chicago by Sen. Horah. He will make his first stand before the committee on resolutions and will insist that the committee shall include in the national platform a plank that will condemn the treaty in toto in terms that anybody can understand. If the committee decides against him he will bring in a minority report and tight for its adoption by the convention. If the convention turns down the minority report and declares for the league with the Lodge reservations it will be surprising if Sen. Horah and his "never-say-die" followers do not walk out of the convention and announce the formation of a third party movement with an invitation to all Americans who condemn the League of Nations to fall In behind their banner. Such a movement, it is contended, wouM furnish the only haven for those who regard the League of Nations a a great overshadowing menace to American tranquility and American institutions. It is a foregone conclusion that the democratic national convention, if it does not yield to the president's demands and indorse the league with reservations. If tho republican national convention approves the league with reservations Sen. Horah will lind a fertile held for his activities in trying to arouse tire sentiment of the country that thinks the United States should shun membership in any ort of a world league as it would a pastilence and steer clear of foreign alliances and entanglements.

irreconcilables say, by tlie overwhelming response given to Sen. Johnson of California in his attacks on the league during his recent speaking tour of the country. They point out that wherever he made his assaults on the leaguo he received the most hearty responses and that the tests of sentiment which he developed on his tour make it plairi that the people desire that America shall be kept free of world leagues and left free to work out its national destiny in Us own way. That the league issues may precipitate a collision at the very outset of the Chicago convention now seems likely. '.The republican national committee which stands for the treaty Aith', the lodge reservations is putting Sen. Lodge forward for temporary chairman and keynote orator. Hack of the plan to name Sen. Borah as permanent chairman is the element that wants to commit the party irrevocably against the treaty of Versailles and its League of Nations, regardless of any reservations. If Sen. Borah should win the permanent chairmanship the republicans may be confronted by the unusual situation of having the temporary chaircan sound one sort of keynote and later to hear that keynote knocked into a cocked hat by tho perma

nent chairman. Trie situation is one

That is strongly suggestive b!e ahead.

INDIANAPOLIS. May lä. In a statement issued here today at the hea.lquarters of the Salvation Army home service appeal. Major Arthur 11. Robinson. stat chairman, explained what home service Is and made cl-ar the need of a fund of -TJ'J.COO with which to continue the work the coming year. The statement was issued in calling attention to the canvass for home service funds now in progress. Major Robinson's statement dealt with what the Salvation Army pos in the various Indiana citifs did last year in their horn- service activities. ' :. of the interesting things he pointed out was tho fact that at South Lend during the etddemic of intlwnza the Salvation Army provid'd 2 0 nurses for work among those unable to employ attendants. The South Hend corps also found 4r positions for jobless men who had families to support, and conertel ;:3 persons in the last six month. At Fort Wayne the social service department working among women took car: of 200 unfortunate änd troubled women during the last year. Major Robinson's report further shows. Another example of home stoic..- work is given in the record of th Princeton corps. whi-h sent repres - t uias to pray with 2 31 families .luring the la:

We are studying how to make the Yellow Cab even better than it is.

Here we are giving you the finest cab service at a lower rate than in any city of this size in the world, and all we ask of you is to help us make it better. We are sitting here hour after hour studying out ways and means to make the YELLOW CAB so necessary and such a source of pleasure to you that you will think of it involuntarily every time you wish to ride. The foundation principle of this effort is to maintain a force of drivers wrho are so happy and contented with their lot that they will be on their toes every hour they are on duty. When a driver is out on his cab he is captain of the ship. He can either make or break the service. We want to pay him so well, and keep him so happy, that all possibility of his BREAKING it is removed. No business is efficient without "humanity." No business is efficient without common sense. Suffering employees can't deliver the goods, and it isn't their fault. We cannot overwork them and we cannot abuse them, and we know you don't expect US to. We make this explanation in justice to ourselves. The Yellow Cab has become intensely popular and has brought us such a crushing amount of trade we couldn't take care of it if we had double the number of cabs. We have been working under a severe handicap to maintain this first class service, and must do more for the man, the captain of the ship, who holds rour life in his hands. To make him contented and happy, we must pay him better. His cost of living has naturally arisen with the rest of us and our last resource is to ask you to bear with us at least a part of the increased cost to keep him so. Therefore, we have slightly increased our rate schedule, effective Monday, May 1 7, and thank you for your kind consideration of these men by your cooperation in the adoption of this schedule, in their behalf.
