indianapolis, May 20.-Various gen
tlemen of good repute who are said to
own property rented for immoral re-
sorts, but who have so far avoided any
publicity in this regard are trembling
in their boots this week. The Church
Federation of Indianapolis is unlimber-
ing large caliber weapon in the form
of a new law that churchmen say Will
put the red light business on the
blink
The new law is very similar to the
one in effect in the District Of Column
bia and in several states. 1t allows
any citizen or the country prosecutor
to begin Injunction proceedings. These
proceedings are directed at the owner
of the property. "Pitiless publicity
that will cause the owners of bawdy
houses to run to cover in case they
are sailing under false colors is ex-
pected to follow when the ohurchmen

BUSINESS SHORT COURSE.

0t+umwa is to be the site or a
"ehort course" in business training at
which business men of all lines will be
%enrolIed. The object of this course IS
IN assist the business interests just as
tha short course in agriculture is as
sistfnp the farming interests OF the
state These short courses are a part
~ the work that the Iowa state unlver-
sitv IL now carrying forward and they
are based on the belief that every mer
rhant can learn something benefciai
sho,,t ria business in addition to what
he already knows. Experts who have
anec,alized in business principles and
business efficiency will be able to give
from their store Of collected Informal
t,on. valuable and practical facts and
illustrations that the average business
man or clerk would find hard to dig out
for himself. The old idea that the col
lege professor cannot teach the prac-
tical farmer something of value mas
been exploded and business men nave
learned that they too can get some
thing from the professor or business
principles and practices.
The idea in holding a short course
in business is to increase the nance
of the business mans success by
means Of greater efficiency in the con.
duct of the business.
Some OF these short courses In
business have already been held and
tn. men who attended them state that
thay have been we'll paid by what they
rave learned. The state university now
has a department devoted to h study
and teaching of business and the short
course is one of the methods adopted
to give the state the benefit OF the DE,
partment.

The st. Louie committee has renect.

makes waterways useable is not 50
much the depth of the channel as the
availability of docks and term1nal
warehouses. Waterways boosters are
coming to see that the first need Is one
that the individual cities can supply

will applaud this attitude because moth
ing could be better for men OF their
stamp and the encouraging Of their
trade than refusal of their victims to
aid the officers Of the law In appre-
hending the criminals. Laws to be
worth anything must be enforced. Po-
lice and detectives may arrest the
guilty parties but without the cooper.
aticn of the victims, nothing IAN be
done. The law is shorn Of it's power.
It will be a fine day for thieves and
criminals in general when people adopt
the attitude Of the wealthy Chicago
m and refuse to aid In the punish
ing of crime, merely because Of the
publicity and annoyances that are
coupled Herewith.

eight million of apples, fifty thousand
