CENTRAL BODY MEETS
Commercial Club Secretary
Suggests Move to Take In
firmaries of State From Po-
litical Influence.

Thirty persons, representing twenty
churches, clubs, societies, departments
and schools were present at the first
meeting of the Central Council of
charities yesterday afternoon
The talks consisted chiefly in max
quainted with the workings of charity
and the needs of Richmond and WAYNE
county of reform.
No action was taken on any matter.
Charles W. Jordan, who presided, sug-
eested a movement might be launch
ed to take the management OF county
institutions out of politics. He refer
red particularly to county infirmaries.
He said, however, that Wayne county
Is one of the fortunate counties in
having an institution to which the
people can point with pride.
Melpoider Outlines Plan.
Secretary Melpolder took up an ex-
planation of the part the central coun-
Gil is to play in conducting charity
This body will act as advisors to the
Central Bureau of Charity and Social
Service.
He said the central bureau will not
CLASSIFY cases as OLD charity Organ1Za-
tions have done and as the lay charity
workers do-worthy and unworthy
but will have a classification of chron-
ic and hopeful. The chronic cases are
those in which there is no hope for a
betterment of conditions or the re-
moval of influences which bring down
to the people a condition of depend
ence.
Chronic cases, therefore, should be
sent to the county infirmary, while the
hopeful cases, whether worthy or un-
worthy, should receive the attention
of the bureau, he said. If the cases
are unworthy the conditions which
make them SO can be removed, if need
be, by such action as prosecution.
Jail Furnishes Family.
In this connection both Mr. Mel
polder and Mr.. Jordan spoke of the in
efficiency of the county Jail in dealing
with such cases. If the head of the
family is the cause of the unworthi
ness of the cases, he may be sent to
Jail, or if he is sent to Jail for violating

Markets Show 30 Per Cent
Decline in Swine in Pens,
While Dressed Meats Drop
10 Per Cent.
WOMEN ASK CAUSE
Housewives Consider Cru
SADIE to Force Dealers to
Allow Prices to Conform
With General Decrease.

The evolution of pork chop is a
mysterious process, and the most re-
markable thing about it is the increase
of 285 per cent in its value from the
time it leaves the farm on the back
of a live hog to the time when it is
passed over the counter in the butcher
shop.
Hogs sold on the local market today
for 7 cents a pound, and pork chops
cost 20 cents a pound. More remark
able than this, however, is the fact
that in the last three weeks, the price
of live hogs has decreased 80 per cent,
and the price of pork chops has only
diminished from to 10 per cent.
Housewives and restaurant owners
are demanding to know the reasons
for this condition.
The following conversation was held
today between a local butcher and a
customer. The customer entering the
shop asked the price of chops.
Twenty cents a pound" said the
butcher.
"Price is Lower"
won't the fact that hogs are get
ting cheaper make the price of meat
cheaper" asked the customer.
"Why, it is cheaper already" said
the butcher. Pork chops were %
cents three weeks ago, and hogs were
10 cents. Hogs are now cents, and
you see the price of chops has also
come down 8 cents"
The argument looked good to the
customer, and he left the shop salts
fed. If he had stopped to figure lit
tie he would have discovered that the
decrease from 10 cents to Z cents on
hogs meant a decrease of 80 per cent.
while the decrease from % cents to 20
cents on pork chops was only Is per
cent.
In other shops the decrease has not
been so great.
A local butcher said today: "The
pork loins from which we cut our
chops are bought from one of the larg-
est packing houses. The price to us
has fallen off ! cent since the decline
in the price of hogs"
In this case the 80 per cent decrease
in the price of hogs brought about a
3 per cent decrease in the price of
pork chops.
A restaurant owner who buys large
quantities Of pork chops and fresh
hams from a local butcher, said today:
Il heard the price of hogs was going

BERLIN, via Amsterdam. Oct. 27.-
Fighting is in progress about the walls
of Warsaw, capital of Poland, and Zep-
pelin airships are bombarding the
city. The great French fortress of
Verdun has been isolated and it is
impossible for help to reach that
stronghold.
The German troops that crossed the
User in Belgium and captured Lille
have repulsed fierce counter attacks
by the allies and have made some
slight progress.
These are the outstanding features
OF a summary of the situation in the
eastern and western theatres Of war
given to the International News Ser
vice by the war office today.
Russians Suffer Heavily.
"The operations against Warsaw are
highly successful" it was stated. "A
battle is raging at the end of the city.
Heavy losses have been inflicted on
the troops of the Gear, who were put
in the first lines Of the Russians. The
commander Of one regiment had to
be replaced three times as a result

shooters

damage.
THE council of Warsaw has left the
city and the inhabitants are leaving as
rapidly as possible.
"In the Western arena the German
successes continue. Verdun, which
has been fiercely defended for many
weeks, has been cut off from helf by
the destruction of forts between that
point and Toul. 1t will be impossible
for help to reach Verdun and the sur
render or destruction of that fortress
Is only matter of time.
Fighting is still in progress on the
Franco-Belgian front. The forces that
crossed the User have repulsed numer
Gus counter-attacks made by the allies
The Belgian army has suffered so
severely that 1t will be Of no further
help to the allies. Across the User
and around Lille our troops have ad-
vanced slightly, but progress will be
made more rapidly now that our heavy
artillery has been brought up.

SCHOOLS ADJOURN
INSTRUCTORS HOLD
STATE ASSOCIATION
Students in County Get One
or Two Days Vacation
Teachers Receive Full Pay
for One Day.

School children and their teachers
will share a one or two days vacation
this week while the session of the
Indiana State Teachers association
holds.
Every school in Wayne county will
dismiss Friday and where enough
teachers desire to attend the meeting
on Thursday, the schools will not
assemble either day. In Richmond
there are so many teachers who will
attend the state meeting on both days
that most of the schools will not be in
session after Wednesday afternoon.
All county schools will dismiss Fri
day and a few will dismiss on Thurs
day. The country school teachers
were given the opportunity in an order
Of the county board of education to
close the schools on Thursday.
Many to Attend.
There seems to be an unusual inter
est in the state meeting this year as
many important questions in which
the teachers are interested for per-
sonal more than professional interest,
will be brought up. The attendance
from Wayne county at the 1ndianap-
oils meeting will be large.
The teachers will be paid their usual
wages for attending one day of the
association meeting. The state board
of education has ruled that teachers
may spend three days out of each
school year for visiting other schools
and for attending associations. Two
of the three days are usually spent in
visiting other schools.
At the banquet of English teachers
of the association at the board of trade
hall Thursday night, President Kelly
will be the leading speaker with talk
on Teaching the Bible in the Public
Schools" A number of other Rich
mond and Wayne county teachers are
on the program for other sessions.
