That is not habitual. however. This
morning the cars were speeding along
taking switches on time and giving ex-
ceptionally good service. But one long
freight upsets the whole schedule. With
the present switch system a blockade
ties up traffic all along the line.
As for the argument in which two
crews meeting between switches held
their cars for over twenty minutes,

KATE RAY Tells OF
GARY EXPERIENCE

Ideas Used in Gary Po-
lice Department.

Kat. Woods Ray came to Hammond
last evening to link her name with the
Frances Willard hospital being organ
ized by the Women's Christian Temp
erance Union. For the benefit of the
project she talks of having THE
blindness of Virtue" shown at a local
theater with the revenue going to the
hospital
Miss Ray is still willing to talk
about the job as head of the Gary po-
lice department, place she VIII never
attukn. She has fiear on tetsd tlsz
gree as administered by members OF
the force. and of one case in particular
where a suspect is alleged to have
been beaten with billies till Scared
for life. This she calls outrageous. 1t
is also claimed that the man was dis
charged as innocent of the crime he
was suspected of. And what is worse
than all. he now refuses to prosecute
the police, but is leaving town.
Miss Ray is hardly of the stature
generally expected of a chief of police.
but she is a living picture of militancy.
without the vote woman can do
nothing" she said to a reporter. They
are utterly ignored until they have the
power of the ballot. Then all the al
