LONG CREDITS HIT
PERILOUS NOW
Prices Likely to stay High
Through Foreign Demand .
for Our Goods.

Ways and means to help business tide
over the reconstruction period which
have been thought out by the Council on
Credit Defense Of the National Associa-
tlon OF Credit Men have just been maze
public. The methods suggested are not
only expected - help TO keep business
from deterioratlng, but also TO aid 1t to
take advantage OF the vast opportunities
for domestic and international trade that
IL Is believed will develop curing the
next few years.
That Government contracts should not
be abruptly discontinued. but should be
eliminated gradually so that no sudden
establishments with their resultant STRAIN
on capital and labor will ensuc, Is one OF
the recommendations.
Buying and selling should not De on
long terms. which would initiate against
quick turn,overs in mcrcha ndise credits,
ia a theory advanced. In this respect
the council states that 1t believes
great change Is on the way which Will
tend to modernize business and banking
credits go that they may always De
liquid.
Belief is expressed that there will be
a great call for Americas goods in all
parts OF the world, and that therefore
there lie no reason 10 expect suuueh
decline in the prices OF commodities.
The matter OF high prices is one tnat
necessitates scientific handling 20 that
adjustment might be made to a. Level
commensurate with the law or supply
and demand in all cases.
Promises Jobs to Returned Soldiers
Every man formerly employed by
members of the American Mems and
Boys' Clothing Manufacturers Associa-
ton and who has been in the service OF
the country and returns wearing It's uni
form will be Immediately given his for
mer employment.
This resolution was adopted by the
executive committee of the association
in answer to the statement of the Anal
gamated Clothing Workers of America
that their strike now on is for the pur-
pose Of forcing the employers to give
work to the members of their organiza-
ton who soon will be returning from the
front.
The American Mems and Boys Cloth
ing Manufacturers Association employs
so per cent. OF the workers In the
trade. The association stated its inten-
ton Of holding out against the forty
four-hour week demand.

TWIN CITY
To PARADE
THIS EVE
Pure Water Demonstration
Will Not Be Affected
by Cold Wave.

The weather man through this cold
wave is apparently trying to put a
damper on the pure water parade that
is scheduled for tonight at East Chi
ago. but it is dollars to doughnuts that
he Will not succeed.
Leaders Of the movement said this
morning that in their opinion there was
nothing that would prevent the people
Of the city from registering their firm
convictions In a public way on the wa
ter question.
It is understood that automobiles with
banners attached will be out in force
and that there will be a number of
trucks arranged os floats with appro-
pirate designs
The parade will form at the city hall
on Forsyth avenue and at the corner of
Michigan and Guthrie streets. The two
ends of the town will join their demon
stration and will parade the principal
streets. after which all will gather at
the council chamber TO interview, the
councilmen in regard to an ordinance
which has been prepared by a commit
tee with J. D. Kennedy as chairman.
This ordinance provides that notice
must first be filed with the board Of
works before the water company can
turn Off the water from any consum-
er's property and that the company
must not dIg up streets anywhere in the
city for the purpose of shutting off wa
ter until a permit is granted them by
the board OF works. Penalties are pro-
vided for violations.
Mayor Mccormack said today or the
movement for pure water:
THE greatest handicap to the devel-
opnent OF East Chicago as a municipal
ity and the greaest danger TO it's citi-
zens-the thing that constitutes the SUI
preme problem involving every depart
ment and every resource of our city
is the impurity Of the water supply and
the grave danger OF this medium as a
carrier Of disease.
THE problem is an economic one as
we'll as q sanitary one. 1t materially
affects our Industrial development and
has been perhaps the one greatest draw
back in the efforts of the employment
bureau and the plans to secure the work
men needed.
East Chicago would get more money
for honest would get more people as
residents-its material vslution would
largely increase-and more 1 important
than all, the death rate of our babies
would not run so alarmingly high, If
we had a pure. filtered water for our
people TO drink
"Of all the needs OF this rapidly
growing municipality. rapidly becoming
national in is Importance and standing.
I consider that the need Of a filtration
plant is the greatest.
1.-THE present stuff is not worth. In my
estimation. the price that the people are
paying for this necessity and / trust
that the people and the municipal au-
thorities may speedily find some way of
getting a measure of relief and event
ually of getting a pure supply"

TO this point many of Lake county's
notables. including Major General will
liam q HAN. one Of the greatest III s.
military generals when small boy and
up into young manhood came for his
mail at the Creston postoffice: as did
Eimothy II Ball. Lake county's greatest
author and historian and many others.
The original postoffice was one-half
mile east IF Creston and was known as
Tfnkerville till the Monon railway came
through when it was moved 10 the pres
emit site nearly a half century ago and
some twenty years ago Mr. Palmer re-
tired from active life and moved to
Lowell whore he died in June, 1911.
At this point Mr.. Palmer and his
estimable wife raised family Of nine
children-seven sons and two daugh-
ters-Mrs. Amos p. Thompson and c.
+. Palmer of Lowell; James C. Marcus
A., and Benjamin F. of Hammond Jas
per p. of East Chicago: John D. of
Chicago; Grant F. of California and Mrs.
Elmer E. Ragon OF Gary.
1.-THE other postmasters serving in
stead Of Mr.. Palmer are: Lester Cutler.
-rthur G. Taylor and Harry Taylor, the
present postmaster.
And thus Will pass away another of
Lake county's landmarks that is not to
be remembered so wildly by the young
er as the older generations.
