THIS AUTO
REFUSED To
Be STOLEN
Gary Mans Machine Was
Stubborn and So Was the
Thief, But He Found It
Impossible to Get Away
With the Machine.

Truly can tt be said that the Ameri
can nation has gone automobile crazy.
They buy when they cannot afford, and
if they can afford they buy twice, but
when the can't scrape up the cash from
their bankers. or perchance, the have
no bankers save Dame Fortune. they
attempt to steal one. Thus is the situa-
ton in Gary, when last Saturday night.
attempted robbery was made on
the garage of A. M Roberts, who re-
sides on Jackson street.
Machine Is Cranky.
The bold thief. late that night, at
tempted in innumerable ways to get at
the inside of the garage, breaking open
a window. and crawling inside and
forcing the hinges of the door, so as
to provide for a speedy exit. not only
for himself but with the auto as we'll.
All would have gone we'll for Mr.. Burg
lar, had not the machine. in its restful
repose, refused to be cranked. A cranky
way indeed for a dumb brute to act. but
nevertheless it did act thus. and know
ing the usefulness of an automobile as
a personal and business asset, the
burglar set about to discover another
means of forcing the machine to imbibe
freely of the liquor electricity and
thus force the car against its own will
TO leave its snug home. and company

He hit upon the plan, finally. OF break :
ing the magnetic and connecting the
same with an electric wire, and thus
force life into the machine. But the
machine had become aroused at this
juncture. and angrily informed the pill
ferer that under no circumstances
would it attend him on his midnight
journey.
He DcmoIishes Machine.
Tis also angered the man, and having
more strength in brains and arm than
the poor dumb creature, set about to
demolish the machine. and as a result
Mr. Roberts was forced to proceed with
the machine this morning to a profes-
sional garage doctor: and member OF
steel and tin. and get it fixed. But the
would-be abductor left no trace of him
self. and is now probably fixed between
chargin at his failure to capture the
beauty prize, and finished joy at the
havoc he created.

LODGES SOLUTION OF
HIGH-PRICE PROBLEM

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2S.-That the In
crease in price Of food was general
throughout the world and was not con-
fined TO the United States and therefore
was not affected by the American tariff,
was the contention of Senator Lodge in
a speech in the senate today. He found
In the increased gold supply and In the
decreased demand of consumers an ade-
quate explanation of present conditions
and urged that the tariff could not and
did not have any effect on the price OF
the necessities.
Senator Bacon quoted newspaper arti-
clcs in support OF his contention that the
beef trust was selling beef in Eng
land from four to nine cents a pound
cheaper than in the United States.
Mr. Bacon also undertook 10 show that
since hides had been put on the free
list there had been an advance in the
prices OF boots and shoes and of leather
He credited this TO the manipulation OF
the dealers.

Alphabetically speaking. the world is
not over populated. Tho problem is to
relieve the congestion In the cities and
scatter the unproductlYc population TO
the farms. Then. when VIC get them
there, we must teach them new methods
of farming, our present methods are so
loose and slipshod that we do not get
half the good out of our tillablc land.
There is no quick relief TO the present
crisis. The neccssaries OF life wlll not
be chcapened 10 the consumer until we
add million or so persons TO our agri-
cultural population. Until the movement
