MAY COME INTO COURT

The contest between the Gary
plumbing trust and Walsh and Heuecl<.
master plumbers, may come to a head
in the police court tomorrow.
warrant for the master plumbers
arrest was sworn out Saturday and
they were notified to appear in court
tomorrow. They are charged with cio-
lating the plumbing ordinance because
they are not using a certain grease
trap. Walsh and Heuck claim that the
attempt to designate any particular
brand is illegal while the members of
the Gary high price plumbing trust, are
for the Sieban trap which the ordi-
nance specifies must be used.
Much interest is being taken in the
case because of the suspicial activity
of some of the local master plumbers
in having the Sieban trap designated
in the ordinance An investigation, is
being made to see who profits by the
sale of Sieben traps.

DOCK PERMIT IS VOID

Wharves and docks erected by the
Iroquois Iron company in slip OF the
Calumet river are there Without
authority, according to opinion
handed down today by Corporation
Counsel Sexton. This opinion was
submitted to the city counsel COM
mittee on harbors, which is expected
to take Immediate steps to force the
company to either remove the docks
or pay compensation to the city for
them. The company erected the
wharves under a permit issued by
former Commissioner of Public Works
Hanberg in 1910. This permit gave 1t
permission to erect piers and docks on
either side of f7ae Calumet river and
over and across the Calumet slip.
The work done by the company, ac-
cording to the city officials, was prac-
tically a seizure of the slip. So COM
pletely was it shut up that one of the
city's fire tugs, which formerly had
been moored in the slip. was nearly
shut up in it and the city was obliged
to make other arrangements in con-
nection with its mooring as result.
1t is estimated by the city officials
that the docks and wharves erected by
the company in arrordance with the
permit covered five acres and their
value is estimated at 100000.
The commissioner of public works
never had the authority to issue per-
nit which would enable any company
to do what the Iroquois concern did"
said Corporation Counsel Sexton. II
have Investigated the case fully and
find that the council never authorized
| the issuance of any permit. and i
| seems to have been made out without
! the slightest attention being paid to
| law. Under the city code it would be
! necessary for the city council itself to
act before such privileges as were OBJ
| tanned by the iron company could be
granted. / have informed the com
| mittee on harbors to this effect, and
| the further action is in its hands"
| No meeting of the council committee
| is likely until September. The COM
mittee, however. had already requested
/ the opinion from the corporation coun-
sci and will be ready to go ahead with
4 the necessary legal proceedings as
soon as the vacation season is over.

Although the tentative location OF tho
company and the fact that it was COM
ing sooner or later has been common
knowledge in Gary beyond completing
a survey and plans for its factories the
company has made no important move
since 1909.
Railways Prompt Move.
1t is said that the action of the rail-
ways in getting ready to equip them
selves with steel mail and passenger
ears prompted the car and foundry
company to take immediate steps to-
wards the purchase of its site. AL
ready the Pennsylvania railway COM
pany has taken steps to change its

Willis E. Roe stated today that the dis
solution came about as result of the
appointment Of Joseph A. Meade as

vented him from getting any defenses

firm to dissolve. According to Roe the

they gratified the yearning and ambition
of years. They came home refreshed by
travel and change of interest, stimulat-
ed by new impressions and perhaps also
with heightened resolves. A man usually
comes off a satisfactory vacation with
the resolve to do better work in his par
ticular calling. These travellers brought
back wealth of varied information, in
teresting and useful not alone to them
selves, but to their friends and their COM
munities. They were in numerous in
stances broadened by the observation of
other peoples and other customs.
1t would be happy thing it all Amer
leans could see and know all America 1t
would be a good thing for the travellers
as well as for the hotels and the rail-
roads. 1t is in a way the duty of Amer
leans who can afford it to see their own
country, and the belief is well grounded
that Americans do this quite as thorough
ly as the people Of other countries
even the people Of those countries where
distances are small compared with dis
tances in the United States.
The See America First campaign will
be good in encouraging travellers to see
their own country, but tourists on vaca-
ton are going where they will and each
will seek pleasure after his own taste
and fashion.

The Servant Question.
the Pbiladelnhia Iedper

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
The servant question is one that we
have always with us, and when house
keeping is actively resumed at sum-
mer's close the problem becomes more
acutely veXatious than ever. 1t is easy
enough for the inexperienced to dog
Matte on this subject and tell what
ought to be done. One theorist pro-
the fact that household labor is con-
tinuOus performance from dawn to dark,
and cannot be sawed off into lengths"
The apartment dweller complacently Of
fers prescription for the commuter' S
family in the suburbs, where it is diff
ficult to get any kind of 'help'' at any
price. And when cook or waitress
proves insolent or inefficient it is SO
easy for the unthoughtful husband to
ask. why don't you discharge her?''
instead of asking, How can you get
some one to take her placer" The SER
want problem threatens the disruption
OF dOmesticity. Some attempt to solve
it by doing all their own. work them
selves. 1t is undeniable that if all the
heavier drudgery of kitchen and laun-
dry, dining room and bedroom Is to be
done by the members of the household
there is left a much narrower margin of
leisure for intellectual interests and So
cial intercourse. Others give up in
despair, and betake themselves to ho-
tells or apartments. where many auto
matte labor-saving devices are installed,
or where one we'll paid functionary at
tends to the wants of more than one
family.

See America First Campaign

The See America First campaieners
though they put much reason in their
work. sometimes indulge in exaggerat.on.
One is inclined to think that they under
rate the tourist flow that during the out
ing season swirls around Niagara.

Canyon of the Colorado and that revels

There will be held in Baltimore next
May a See America First convention, the
object of which is to turn westward
northward and southwark the American
tourist tide that rolls to Europe. Statis-
tics have been compiled indicating that
last season 10000 Americans Travelled to
Europe at a cost of 100000, OO0 American
dollars
This money was not all lost. Much of
it may have been frivolously spent Men
and women OH vacation are prone to
spend money more freely or more riot
ously than at home and often give the
impression that their resources are great
er than they really are. But these Amer
leans, a trifling number compared with
the number visiting distant points of in
terest In the United States, got good
deal for their money. In many instances

Housebreakers.

Washington seems to be suffering just
at present from an increase in the num-
Der of burglarious workers, judging from
the reports that are being received by
the police every morning. Some thrilling
experiences have been had during this
visitation of the housebreakers. One
woman cornered an intruder yesterday
afternoon in her house and he made his
escape only by threatening her with a
pistol. A later report states that citi-
zen was awakened during the night and
saw a man take. his watch from the
dresser to an open window, where he
examined it. and on finding that 1t bore
an inscription he laid it aside. The other
night discriminating thief eschewed a
valuable watch for the sake of what he
mistook for good currency. but which
was. i'll fact, mere stage money" 1t
may be that these exploits are all by the
same man. This is to be hoped, for in
such case his capture is likely to follow
1t woulG be much more comforting to the
community to feel that there was only

one hustling burglar at work than that
the city was infested with many thieves,
operating in all directions.
In any case. however. it behooves all
householders to look carefully to their
door and window fastenings.. and thus
at least make it less easy for the thieves
to gain entrance. The professional house
breaker is not ordinarily daunted by win
dow latches and locks. but there are ways
and means of.preventing him from enter
ing a house without making noise suf-
fcient to awaken Its sleeping inmates.
Probably if a couple Of arrests were made
the industry of breaking and entering
would be very greatly discouraged. Wash
ington desires no eminence in the matter
of offering facilities to thieves to ran
sack it's dwellings.

Typhoid and Milk.

If any further demonstration were
needed of the necessity for the closest
possible cooperation between the author
tiles and adjoining states and jurisdic-
tons for the protection of the public
health it is furnished by the discovery,
by District inspectors, of a case of ty-
phoid on a Virginia dairy farm from
which milk has been supplied to local
consumers, with the result Of giving the
disease to eleven persons in this city.
Immediately the question arises, why
should not that typhoid case in Virginia
have been discovered by the authorities of
that state and the milk from that farm
put under ban until the danger was re-
moved? AS the District is situated it is
literally at the mercy of chance. 1t can
stop the entry of milk from suspected or
condemned sources, and it can even go
to the extent of requiring all milk dis
pensed from certain local agencies to be
pasteurized. But as far as detecting the
sources of disease infection outside of the
local boundary goes it must trust to cir
cumstances. In this instance the coin
cidence of a number of cases of typhoid
on a certain milk route led easily to the
conclusion that the cause lay in the milk
supply. The location of the source was
then only question of investigating con-
ditions on each of the farms from which
this dairy obtained its milk. Thus is
established what may be regarded as an
ideal demonstration of the necessity OF
constant inspection of the dairy farms
sending their products to the local mar
ket The sanitary inspection in Virginia
and Maryland is obviously inadequate.
The District must depend upon its own
processes, and unfortunately its money
provision for the purpose is not large
enough to enable it to maintain con-
tinuous effective supervision or examina-
ton OF all the locally supplying dairy
farms Here is a branch of the District
government that might protitably be
doubled in force, with the consequence OF
a material reduction In local typhoid and
saving of lives.
