WHAT MAYOR
KNOTS SAYS

Il Go not care to say much about
the action of the council because 1t
might be used against us If this mat
ter came up in court. I believe that
1t Is the logical course for all the
cities of this region to be amalga-
mated in one great city, but 1t is a
question OF course, whether or not
the time is premature There are
many advantages of such an action.
This would make Gary the second
city of the state, second only to In
dianapolis. 1 believe that we could
secure a special charter granting US
more privileges than any OF the
cities enjoy at the present time, and
which their, progressiveness entities
them to. Some of the disadvantages
are the distance between the two
places, OF course, and the difficulty
of having but one central govern
ment I believe that for the first
few years there would be much

would be ameliorated as the district

HAMMOND
TAKES|TAS
HUGE JOKE
Hammond People Do Not
Take Gary Annexation
Seriously, and Politicians
Believe It Is a Becker
Knotts Fran1eup.

The people of Hammond today took
the action of the Gary council in an
nexing East Chicago and Hammond
as a huge joke. The impression is
general that Mayor Becker and May.
or Knots got together on this propo-
sition in order to make the whole ANAL
gamation movement so ridiculous that
all of the "get-together" schemes
would fail and Mayor Becker would be
saved the humiliation of being ousted
from office.
While the sentiment in favor of the
annexation of Hammond Whiting and
East Chicago has been strong, the pro-
posal to tie up with Gary, which is five
miles away from the nearest of these
North township cities. is generally be-
lieved to be so ridiculous as to be out
of the question. 1t is freely predicted
that no Judge in the land would ever
sanction such long distance union.
Mayor Becker a last extremity.
has prevailed upon Mayor Knots of
Gary to annex the amalgamated cities
of North township In order that the
whole annexation proposition wouh
become so complicated that none Of
the plans Will carry" is the opinion
of Mayor A. G. Schlieker of East Chi
cago, when interviewed on the matter
this morning DR.. Schlieker denies
positively that East Chicago even con-
sidered the proposition OF annexing
Gary.
Furthermore, he does not take the
matter seriously. He does not think
the people OF Hammond would be fooled

could be settled with the interests o.

in view. and Gary would have to TAX,
a chance on what the North TOWNSHIP
cities wanted to give 1t. This makes
it apparent that the Gary councilmel
were joking when they anenxed Ham

never stand for the substitution of tn
name Calumet and would never be con

of frty-seven councilmen
