The first real meeting of the Repub-
1icans was held last in Weilands Hall
in East Chicago, and was attended by
nearly fifty East Chicago and Indiana
Harbor business men. The object of
the meeting. as stated in the call sent
out by Chairman w. B. Van Horne, was
simply to discuss the situation and the
exchange of views and suggestions as
to the best mode of procedure for the
conduct of the coming city campaign.
Chairman Van Horne presided and
called on nearly everyone present for
an expression of opinion. Confidence
and enthusiasm was denoted in every
response. and all declared themselves
willing and anxious to get to work and
make a success of the election.
The question of nominating by pri-
mary or convention was discussed and
the consensus of opinion seemed to ia
vor the primary system. Everybody
seemed alive to the fact, too, that

a strong bunch of precinct committee
men. was of the most important

RUMELY TO SHUT
DOWN IS REPORT
New Management May Stop
Manufacturing for Short
Period, It Is Said.

1t was reported yesterday from New
York that the NJ. Rumely Company of
La Porte would close down its plants
August L and probably keep them closed
until January l. Clarence S. Funk
president of the company, was not in
the city yesterday and the report was
not confirmed by him.
The shutdown, if 1t ordered, is sup
posed to be for the purpose of allowing
the new Funk management to catch up
on the overproduction in certain lines
of the company's output. This is an
off season for much of the company's
machines and there is said to be an
abundance in stock to meet all possi-
BILE demand. 1t is said to be the inten-
ton to collect as much as possible of
the company's bills receivable, pay it's
own obligations and start the new year
in better financial position
The Rumely Company's trouble re-
suited from overborrowing, from pro-
duction of machinery far beyond the
requirements of the market and from
poor collections on MACH rAry sold 1t
is said that the intention of the new
management is to stop manufacturing
operations until the finances of the
company can be placed down to a bet
ter basis.
