revolver. Dawson left the house
and Miller called the police. Daw-
son returned just as the police ar
rived.
Dawson "broke into print" earlier

entrance to his home by exhibiting
a fake search warrant, and. after

Senate Orders Probe.

Washington, Dec. General in
vestigation of the Federal Trade
commission was ordered today by
the senate. Besides inquiry into
charges of Senator Watson, repub-

Minis, republican, Iowa, is chairman.
The resolution adopted originally
was confined to Senator Watson's
charges, but was broadened at Sen

IMPOSSIBLE TO
REDUCE TAXES IS
REPORT OF GLASS
Treasury Secretary Urges
Congress to Deny Every
Appropriation for Expen-
diture In New Fields.

Washington, Dec. mo appre-
ciable reduction i'll taxes for the
next fiscal year is to be thought of,
Secretary Glass declared in his an
pual report sent today to congress.
Government receipts must be kept
at their present figure, he said, in
order to bring government borrow
i,g to an end.
Facing expenditures estimated at
$500. 486.559 for the year ending
June 80, 1920. and $4,+5,o96.358 for
the year ending June so, 1921, the
government must enforce rigid
economy, Mr.. Glass. declared. He
placed the deficit for the current
year at S5,o05, 100000 and for the
year ending June so, 1921, at APP
prcximately $2,005,000,000.
On this basis, Mr.. Glass urged
congress to deny every appTopria-
ton for expenditure in new fields"
He said the same policy should OBJ
tain until the government had its
sinking fund well under way and re-
payment of the war debt "satisfac'
torily begun"
Foreign Relations Discussed.
Relations between conditions in
Europe and those in the United
States we're discussed also by Mr..
Glass. He said that, undoubtedly,
there was very great need in Eu-
rope for financial assistance, but
that the situation had been much
exaggerated.
I'VE must all feel deep sympathy
for Europe today" he said, hut we
must not allow our sympathy to
warp our Judgment and, by exag-
gerating European financial needs,
make them more difficult to fill.
j. -. The problem of financing
Europe belongs largely to the ex-
porter because industries cannot be
feopened without raw stocks. Gov,
eminent financial assistance in the
past and talk of future government
or banking aid to finance exports
have apparently led our industrial
concerns to the erroneous expecta-
ton tina. theiy war profits. based,
largely on exports. will continue in
definitely without any risk on their
partt To them will fall the profits
Of exports and upon them will fall
the consequences of failure to make
the exports"
The treasury. will continue its
policy, in effect since the armistice,
to restore private initiative and re-
move governmental control and in
reference with respect to the ma
tons foreign trade, Mr.. Glass said.
Only through this means, he argued,
could a s'healthy economic life be
gained He added that removal of
any influence by the government
should provide the incentive for
American comm Ace to go into the
world markets and establish itself.
Ratification OF the peace treaty will
ipeasurably stimulate export trade,
Mr.. Glass declared, because opera
ton Of the past would eliminate
numerous political risks and provide
a surer investment basis.
j Military Gets Most.
Returning to the estimated gov
crnment expenditures for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1921, Mr.. Glass
said the military establishment
,would ask appropriations aggregat-
ing $9So, 578,657. Of this sum. 1897
$4,000 would be required, he said,
for maintenance of the army proper
while $85,408,000 would be appro-
priated to the National Guard. The
military academy would receive

INDIANA UNIT MAY
PARADE FOR LOAN

WASHINGTON, March 19-If, as
expected, the Rainbow division arrives
in the United States in time to take
part in the Victory loan campaign,
every effort will be made to have the
150th field artillery, formerly the 1st
Indiana, sent to Indianapolis.
Although plans call for demobiliza-
ton of a major part of the division
either at Camp Sherman, O., or Camp
Zachary Taylor, KY, the publicity de-
partment of the loan campaign will
intercede with the war department to
have the division split up into state
units and each unit sent to its own
state for rehabilitation. This would
cause the 150th to go to Fort Benja-
min Harrison.
If this is not possible, the loan pub
licity department will attempt to have
the division discharged as soon as l.
reaches this country and the men sent
to their home states to take part in
the loan campaign at the expense of
the publicity department.
Labert st. Clair, formerly of Wee
dersburg, acting as assistant director
of publicity for the Liberty loan, said
he was anxious to see the 150th field
artillery sent to Indiana and that he
would make every effort to have this
done if the unit reaches the United
States in time. Recent dispatches
from abroad indicate that the unit will
start home the first week in April.

tutions that are safe and the method of making
use of banking facilities in the various cities.
Reputable banks perform real service in the
community which often is overlooked both by
patrons and the public generally. They offer not
only convenience and security in handling money
for their patrons but also perform acts of service
gratuitously, which otherwise would put the pat
ron to considerable expense and inconvenience.
The modern banker not only takes the money you
deposit, but he also cheerfully advises you about
investments and other pecuniary affairs. He is
your friend in professional way, and as said
before he charges no fee for the advice and sug-
gestions which he himself has gained through
long years Of experience and perhaps at con-
siderable expense.
The campaign which the Bankers association
is waging will in the long run do more good to
the public than to the banks themselves. Too
many citizens look upon a bank as grabbing
institution rather than a medium through
which the interests of the community as whole
are furthered and the welfare of the individual
promoted. It is not an idle piece of flattery to
assert that all the financial institutions in Rich
mond and Wayne county have performed great
service to the community during the war period
and daily do many acts of kindness for individ-
uals. The Wayne county bankers know that the
welfare of the whole community depends upon
the saving ability of the individuals who consti-
tute it. They cheerfully give advice to the
smallest depostor, looking upon him as poten-
tial big depositor. Many instances could be cited
where small depositors through the kindness of
the Wayne county bankers have seen their saw
ngs greatly increased.

BEFORE OR AFTER
INFLUENZA
By DR.. M. COOK

The cool fighter always wins and so
there is no need to become panic
stricken. Avoid fear and crowds. Ex-
ercise in the frest, air and practise the
three C's: Clean Mouth, Clean Skin
and Clean Bowels. To carry off the
poisons that accumulate within the BODY
and to ward off an attack of the inhu-
enza bacillus, take good liver regulator
to move the bowels, such as Castor Oil
or pill made up of May-apple, leaves
OF aloe and root of jalap, to be had at
any drug store, and called DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets.
The system should be built up BY the
use of good iron tonic, such as Iron
tic" tablets, to be obtained at some drug
stores, or that we'll known blood-maker
and herbal tonic made from roots and
barks of forest trees-sold everywhere
as DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery.
For a tonic that will freshen up the
blood, clean the digestive tract and put
new force and vim into you, know of
nothing better than DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery-and it contains no
alcohol or narcotic so is perfectly safe
to take.

enough vegetables for their home

of the lime spilled out and got into

Unregenerated Germany

For centuries it has been accepted an acaden-
c maxim that the purpose of punishment or the
curtailment of liberty is to bring about reform
and that suffering has an educative value We
are not interested in the truth or falacy of this
maxim Accepting it for the sake of drawing a
conclusion we are forced to admit that the heavy
punishment administered to Germany in the last
four years has done very little toward its moral
reformation. Speeches of German leaders and
editorial utterances of the press prove clearly
that instead of holding themselves culpable for
the war, the Germans now regard themselves as
The innocent victims of other nations. Instead
of finding penitent nation, we find vindictive
people.
The statement of Herr Erzberger, head of the
German armistce commission, reveals naughty
and revengeful purpose Referring to the dis
position of the Rhineland and to Polands claim
to Danzig, Herr Erzberger says, What is Ger
man will remain German, and that Germany
will reject any demands that apply to acts COM
United after December 16. The Coblenz Zeitung
says that large section of the people are indif-
ferent to the disaster that awaits them and show
no sorrow for the outrages which they perpe-
trated upon Belgium and other countries.
In Berlin the street fights between the Spar
tacans and government troops attract large
crowds who look upon the spectacle in the same
spirit that American crowds watch football
game When the fight is over they visit the
scenes of destruction in complacent mood.
1t is difficult to appraise the moral status of
these people, The yearning for world power still
remains. Obviously the only cure is peace
treaty that will make impotent any further effort
to re-establish their military power.

The attention of the public is again called to
the fund which is being collected here to place
picture of Oliver P. Morton in the basement of
the Soldiers and Sailors monument at Indiana
polls. The sum of $75 is insignificantly small in
comparison with the wealth of the residents of
the county in which Oliver P. Morton was born
and upon which his illustrious career sheds
glory and renown. The responses have been en-
tirely too slow in comparison with the love for
Morton and the loyalty of the community. It is
to be hoped that the SIS will soon be raised and
that check for this amount may be mailed to
