Stay in Your Home Town
Advises Wall St. Fiinancier
By W. III. Auburn.

stan Special
NEW YORK, Feb. .. Uncle
Harry Horton, a notable and popular
figure in Wall st. for half a century.
has just retired. And, asked TO Dut
his opinion of Wall ST. in capsule form
he says:
Young man, keep out of it."
The answer is surprising, in view OF
the fact that genial Uncle Harry has
been successful himself and is by no
means stern moralist.
Don't misunderStand ne" he con-
tinued- This advice isn't just for to-
day, when there's a slump on change
and operators have scant picking It's
meant all the more for boom days.
when the floors a bowling mob and
the tickers OF the country are working
overtime.
Il want to caution the young men
of America
Don't rush to the big city to stake
your little pile and lose ii and burn
up your youth and brains
"GO into the cOuntry-Or stay in
1t. Pick some small or medium-siZed
town and build up a business there.
Start hunbly. if you have to, but set
your mark high; work toward it
steadily, and you'll succeed.
New York, you know. isn't going
to dominate this cOuntry'S business in
the future as it has in the past. And
that's just as well. Do your part
help to scatter the country's business
brains where they'll do the most good,
and build up the sections that need
it. That's patriotism, as well as good
business"
Then you utterly disapprove Of
Wall st. ?''
''Not at ALL" he replied. Though
bad for the individual. Wall st. has
been great for the nation. In spite
of all that is said against it as an in
stitution, I think it has done much
for the progress of the country.
But the big work that a lot of big
men have been doing here is nearly
finished. y new era is coming in The
financial resources of the nation are
being scattered-the new banking law
helps TO scatter them. And the va
rious sections of the country willard
should-be able TO take care of them
selves
DO your part, young man. Stay IN
the west. or the middle west, or the
south, or go there. You'd better be
a big man in a little town than a
cipher in Wall St"

SZABO REFUSED
LICENSE TWICE
Commissioners Deny New Peti-
tion for Liquor Permit to
Man Who Lost License on
RemOnStranCe Year AGO.

After having been refused a license
last April to operate saloon at 1902
w. Thomas St because a remonstrance
charging him with unftness was filed.
George -Szabo appeared before the
county commissioners Monday with a
petition to purchase the license of Jo-
seph Kovatch and transfer the loca-
ton to Thomas st.
Objection to the granting Of this pc
tition was filed by attorneys for resi-
dents in the vicinity of the proposed
location of the saloon Ind Szabo's pc
tition was refused The board held
that the matter of SZabO's fitness to
operate saloon had been decided
against him last April which order
adjudicated the matter. lt was also
pointed out that the proposed location
OF the saloon is nearer the Laurel
school than the law allows.
st. Stephens hungarian church is
Immediately opposite the proposed To-
cation and Sacred Heart Belgian
church is within a block. Both these
churches maintain parochial schools
The remonstrance against Szabo filed
last year charged him with every pos
sible violation of the Proctor law, sell
ing on sunday, 20 minors, 20 women,
etc.
Szabo's attorney allowed the judg-
ment TO be entered against him by the
commissioners and then appealed 10
the circuit court but later dismissed
his appeal Some time ago SzabO
filed his petition through Atty, Lem
J. Oare. to purchase the license OF Jo-
.seph Kovatch, who operates a saloon
on :. Main ST., opposite the court house
and 10 transfer the location to 1902
W. Thomas. the same place where he
was refused a license.
Pastors of the churches in the
neigh borhOod and residents who had
signed the first remOnStrance opposed
the granting of this double petition
Szabo was not represented by counsel
at the meeting Monday and IL is
doubtful If his case viii be appealed.
Nearly a score Of other liquor license
petitions faced the commissioners at

WORKING WOMEN
URGE PRESIDENT
To AID SUFFRAGE
Wilson Repeats That He is
Spokesman of His Party and
Cannot Initiate legislation
Speaker Grows Angry.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Pres. VIII
son again told the suffragists of the
L. $. that he could not help them.
When 400 working girls represent
ing more than 80 Industries called at
the White House, the president eX-
planned that he could not take the ini-
tiative in endorsing legislation and
that woman suffrage would have to
be supported by the democratic party
before he would express his views up
on ii.
The working girls marched on the
White House like an invading host
with cOlors flying and bands playing.
While their committee went inside TO
interview the president the rank and
file remained without, waiting for It'd
ings.
Mrs. Glendower Evans of Boston at
tackled the president saying that he
had almost told the suffragists at Sea-
girt that he favored the movement.
THAT was what you told us when
you were cunning for votes" she said.
Not Cunning for Votes.
Pres. Wilson laughed and said he
was not quite sure that he was gun
ming for votes.
Il can only speak for my party,"
he went on.
But we want you to speak TO il.
replied Mrs. Evans amid applause.
Cant you use your influence? We
know that you are the most powerful
man in the country and that a word
from YOU will get us what we ask"
The delegation included milliners,
corset makers. white goods finishers,
cigar makers, hosiery. carpet and lace
workers. clerks, stenographers and
shirt makers
In the line were women with gray
hair and worn. lined faces and young
girls who had not begun to show the
effects of toll. Some were well dress
ed, and a few even somewhat mod
ishly attired, but the majority wore
runover shoes and cheap. shOddy
clothes.
4 group Of cigar factory girls from
Pennsylvania declared they wanted
the vote to get higher wages.
I'VE work ten hours day and get
IS cents a day" said their leader, Miss
Reba Freeden. I'VE can't live right
on that"
Following the cigar makers were
the shirt waist makers. led by Rose
Schneidermann, survivor of the Tri-
angle fire in New York. She said:
I'VE want to call Pres. Wilson'S at
tentiOn forcibly TO the intOlerable con-
dition in which we women are work
ing-and some not working in this
country. He now is in the white
house as the representative of the
men OF the L. S. We also want him
to represent the women Of the ma
ton"
Rose Winslow, chief OF the stock
ing weavers of Pennsylvania said:
Give us justice, not charity. That's
what we are going to ask Pres. Will
son. Well never go on strike to
force somebody to erect working
girls home for US, but we will strike
for wages that will enable us TO live
decentlv.''
An intervals along the lines were
girls carrying banners bearing in
scriptions from Pres. Wilson'S book,
New Freedom"
Some of the banners we're in
scribed: I'VE have got to humanize
industry" "Give me right and Justice
and 7 will undertake to take care of
myself" 'I do not care to live in
country called free even under kind
masters"

EIGHT CITY TEAMS
MIGHT Be USED
WITH ADVANTAGE
TeamSterS' Union to Issue
Statement Regarding Pro-
posed InCreaSe-Say News
Times Figures Too High.

Touched to the quick by what they
regard an exaggerated portrayal OF
the profits in municipal teaming as
presented in the News-TiInes Sunday
morning, leaders of the South Bend
Teamsters' union are preparing an
exhaustive answer which Will be
made public Tuesday.
1t is the contention Of the team
sters that the estimated cost of eight
teaming outfits and of their mainte-
nance, is notoriously low: that the
initial cost would run nearer $4,000
than $4,000, and that the cost OF
maintenance, viz: OF feed. shoeing,
veterinary service, and harness and
wagon repairs. would boost the estl-
mated S2.SSO by probably so per cent.
The statement OF the teamsterS
promise to be an exhaustive docu-
ment and is planned TO justify the
proposed scale increase TO which the
News-Times referred.
The suggestion that the city might
do we'll 10 secure number OF teams
and do its own teaming, appears 10

matter to the bottom" said Mayor
Keller Monday. Il understand that

Street Commissioner Silent.
Street Commissioner Layton spoke
similarly of the prospect OF municipal
teaming, but very reluctantly.
The matter might be investigat-
ed" he said. with eight teams we
would have three doing nothing a
