RESULTED
AT CARY

Just what effect the new Indiana law
putting the prosecuting attorneys Of
ice on a salary instead OF fee basis
is arousinE a good deal of attention
these days.
Considerable comment has arisen over
the fact that Prosecuting Attorney
Greenwald has been conducting the af-
fairs OF the states attorneys office
at Gary himself during the past few
days. and this has given birth to a
story that Greenwald and his deputy,
John Westfall, have had a serious fall
ing out.
'Greenwald and Westfall have had
high words" declared a Gary man OF
affairs this morning, "and it is possible
that no more state cases may be tried
at Gary as a result of the new law as
far as it deals with the salary ques-
ton
Prosecuting Attorney Greenwald
could not be seen this morning about
the story that he and Westfall had a
disagreement.

STILL IS
IN DOUBT

No union plasterers showed up at
the new residence of J. Wesley Reed
on the Ridge road this morning to be-
gin the 1athing work, and Mr. Reed has
no information to when they intend
to begin or whether they will work on
the job at ALL
The refusal OF the union fathers to
go to work is said to hing on the fact
that Reed permitted his house to be
wired by Fred Newell, who is not a
member of the electrical union local

Mr.. Reed said today that If the un-
ion fathers refused to do his work he
would have to hire others to do the
work. and that he is making his prepa-
rations accordingly.

DESIRABLE:
MEN ARE
NOMINATED

In a letter addressed to Phillip S.
Brown, 1438 First National Bank build
ing, Chicago, James A. Rose, secretary
of state of Illinois, states that char
ter cannot be issued for the incor-
poration of West Hammond as a city
for the reason that a majority of all
of the votes cast was not registered
in favor of the change.
A number of those who are interest
ed in the welfare of the village of West
Hammond are very much pleased over
the outcome of the recent primaries.
and point out that an analysis of the
vote shows that the forces for good
have overcome the forces for evil.
A well-known West Hammond man
said: The primary held Tuesday was
a farce from a legal standpoint, but
it points a splendid moral. Almost 700
municipality was divided into wards.
This is the largest vote that was ever
cast in West Hammond

Another result was that the best
men were selected for the various Of
sirabls running for Office. and yet not
one of them were nominated.
Even the wards containing dives
took the opportunity to elect men who
were not in sympathy with a wide
open town. and this indicates what is
