AT STATE CAPITAL.
Indianapolis, Ind. May SIN the APP
pointnent of Harry o. Garman as con-
sulting engineer and chief of the engi-
Eeering STAFF of the public service COM
mission, Purdue University has made =
start toward coming into it's own with
that body. Garman is a very highly
qualified man for the position, accord
ing to all reports. He has been the
head of the engineering department of
Purdue. Everybody speaks well CT
him. The one thing that has caused
some comment here. however, is the
fact that Purdue. which is great big
political machine. as well as an i'm
portant institution of learning, may be
obtaining hold on the commission
through such appointments.
Garman An Expert.
1t is known that some Of the strong
est Endorsements of Charles ]. Murphy.
for appointment as a member of the
commission came from Purdue Univer-
sity. Some persons thought this look
ed If the institution was taking an
undue interest in the makeup of the
commission.
Garman will draw a salary of $500
a year, and he will be one of the most
important adjuncts of the commission.
for the commission will have to depend
on him for expert advice in many i'm
portant matters. such as physical
valuations. etc.
Miller Kent of Marion, has been APP
pointed as statistician for the commits
sion at a salary of $1,000 year. He
is a young man, a graduate of Indiana
University. This position is not nearly
SO important as that of Garman. Kent
has long been a personal friend OF
Commissioner Murphy. .
Another influence Felt.
Purdue political influences tried hard
to capture the road and highway de-
| partment of the state at the Legislature
| last winter. Bills were introduced fol
the creation of a commission that
| would make a study of road building
with Purdue men in charge, and this
commission would have been supreme
In matters of highway construction fr
the state. The same influences opposed
| the bill to create a state highway com
mission, because it did not provide foi
control of the commission by these in
| huences. So whenever Purdue's hant
shows in anything of this kind som,
people set their tongues to wagging.

WHAT TIMES
ADVERTISING DOES

A. J. Campbell. OF the Campbell
Realty company OF West Ham
mond, tells of the marvellous re-
suits of a want ad In THE
TIMES. He had q house in West
Hammond that he wanted to rent.
He put an ad in THE TIMES
and that same evening within an
hour after the paper had been de-
livered he had a dozen chances to
rent the place and before supper
time had accepted a deposit on It
to bind the lease.
The next morning he was ap-
preached by a man who had seen
the for rent ad and who wanted to
buy the house. Campbell told him
that the house would cost him
$2,7oo.
In ten minutes the deal had
been made and the house was sold.
Campbell then hunted up the man
who had rented the house and got
him to release him. Campbell
says he never saw such results
| from advertising.

PUBLIC UTILITIES BOARD
APPOINTS PURDUE EXPERT

Gus problem to find places for every
body. In the last few years many
new offices have been created, new
commissions created and organized and
new boards established that the state
house, which was presumed to be large
enough to provide a home for all of
the states offices for a hundred years,
is already so overcrowded that 1t Will
be necessary for the state to rent
rooms in outside buildings for some OF
the offices.
Three or four years ago the railroad
commission occupied five of the finest
and largest rooms in the state house.
1t had no use for all of this space. and
the then members of the commission
only held the rooms because of a pull.
But somebody began squeezing the
commission into smaller quarters In
order to make room for new commits
sions and boards and in the last year
the commission had only a little space
1t had to get out of the way for the
state board of accounts. which needed
more room, and which now needs still
more room because of the enormous
amount of work il does and the great
accumulation of records.
1t is thought that the state geologist
the laboratories the free employment
bureau and a lot of other offices will
be moved out of the state house into
other buildings in the immediate neigh
borhood. The Legislature last winter
authorized this action and authorized
the board of control of the building
and grounds to spend money for rent
of such places. This, of course, Is only
a temporary arrangement. but It is one
that will have to last until the state
either abolishes a number of it's com
missions boards and offices or builds
a new state house or a new building OF
some kind In which to house them.
Want New Buildings.
| There has been a movement on foo
| for several years to build new educa
tion, library and museum building neal
| the state house. but the cost would rur
up and none of the General ASSEMBLY
has seen mt to undertake the job aDs
the responsibility for the expenditure
Another plan also contemplated th'
erection of a state judicial building ii
| which the supreme and appellate cour
judges, the court rooms and the office
Of the supreme court clerk, the suprem
court reports and everything else con
nected with the judicial system woul,
be located. This would include tn Law
library. Such a move would release
great lot of space and office rooms Il
