In such . garb there can be no place

English economists have declared
that Americas wealth grows s5,000,.
100000 a year. Since the official es-
innate Of our national wealth three
years ago exceeds $17S,O00, 900 900, the
total today must now have passed be-
ynnd the 100000, 00O, 900 point These
figures are colossal beyond all COM
pare. They mean $4,000 of wealth for
every iahabitant. They represent more
than double the wealth of the United
Kingdom, our closest competitor, and
they very nearly match the combined
wealth Of England, France and Ger
many
Our wealth is ten times that of
Italy, eight times that of Austria, and
four times that of France. These
leading European countries are now
tearing at one another's vitals, and
destroying property much faster than
they can create 1t. Hence all Europe
is today actually moving backward.
while the United States is sweeping
swiftly forward to state of still great
er opulence. Ours is the land OF
plenty, of peace and OF opportunity

WOMAN AT HOSPITAL
RECAINS HER SENSES

an taken from a train here Wednesday
morning, regained consciousness at

night.
No effort is being made at present
to identify the woman. She called to

asked for something. 1t was the first
time she has shown any signs Of life
beyond moving her hands. Since then
she has done little talking and until
she becomes stronger, she will not

Hoelscher Tells Why Board
Refused Claim Presented
by DR.. Jones.

That the claim of DR.. Jones Of
Franklin township for $110 for his
services as township physician has no
standing with the county commission
ers was the statement of County At
torney Hoelscher today.
The county attorney said that

fore January 1, made contracts with
DR.. Jones to pay him SO a quarter

An effort will be made to secure a
list of cases treated by DR.. Jones at
the expense of the township. Mr.
Hoelscher stated that unless he can
produce record of his work for the
township, further complications may
arise. The claim will not be taken up
again until July I.

Vice President Jones of Re-
lance Firm Says Eve Are
Unwilling to Arbitrate This
Matter.
MOLDERS OPTIMISTIC
Striking Members of Union
Declare They See Victory
For Cause Before End of
Thirty Days.

Mayor Robbins efforts to have a
non-interested committee appointed to
inquire into the differences existing
between the management of the Re-
lance foundry and the striking mold
some basis for effecting a settlement,
has met with failure because the Re-
lance company has definitely rejected
his proposal.
Last evening the mayors proposal
was accepted by the members Of the
Molders' union. After he had been
notified Of this action Mayor Robbins
asked James E. Jones. vice president
of the Reliance company, what deci-
sion had been reached by the officials
Of that company.
Refuse to Arbitrate.
Eve would not be willing to arbi-
trate this matter. and as far as We are
concerned, we are willing to have the
whole thing dropped" Mr.. Jones re-
piled, according to the mayor.
1T was not my purpose to have the
proposed conciliation committee act as
arbitrators." Mayor Robbins said to-
day. And I think I made the fact
plain when explained my plan to the
Reliance officers and the mlders. The
committee whose appointment I sug-
gested was to have merely ascertained
if some method for adjusting the diff
ference between the company and its
former employees could not be devised.
Il was prompted in taking some &C
ton which might lead to the settle
ment of this trouble because in a way
it effects the public's interests, and l
thought 1t was within my province to
sugrest a reconciliation committee. l
am neither prejudiced, for or against
either the company or the molders,
and the action l took was in the spirit
of absolute impartiality. l am very
sorry the company has rejected this
plan, which might have paved the
way for a settlement, but any time
the company indicates a willingness
for me to use my good offices toward
affecting some settlement, will act
promptly along the lines l have sug-
gested.
Predict Early Victory.
Molders formerly employed at the
Reliance said today they were neither
surprised nor disappointed over the
failure Of the mayors "get-together"
efforts. I'VE will have the strike won
inside of thirty days." said one mold
er. "Of the thirty-nine men who walk
ed out, all but fifteen now have good
jobs, quite a few of them having gone
to Muncie. We still contain a night
and day picket at the foundry. and
will continue to do so until some set
tlement is effected"
Asked today for a statement con-
cerning the action of the company in
declining to agree to the appointment
of a reconciliation committee, Vice
President Jones said, GO see Mayor
Robbins; he will tell you what you
want to know"
The mayor. when asked If the action
of the company in rejecting his plan
would mean the rejection of the Re-
lance company's bid for the municipal
casting contract, which amounts to 81
900, said that was a matter for the
board of public works to act upon.
