FIGHT TO HOLD
REPRESENTATION
Six Counties of State May Lose
Members in Legislature.

A big fight is IN prospect in the regu-
lar session of the General Assembly
which convenes Jan. 9, when an attemp'
WAL De maze to reapportion the legisIa-
tive representation of the ninety-two
counties of the State. Six counties, Gin
ton, Grant, Kosciusko Lawrence, Ran
dolph and Shelby, are likely to lose rep
resentatives In the shuttle, and the rep
resentatives from these counties are ex-
pected to fight hard to retain theiI
present membership.
Marion County, which now has ten rep
resentatives, will probably gain one rep
resentatiye, and the senatorial representa-
ton, which is now four, with one joint
Senator, will likely remain the same.
The State constitution provides that
the Legislative representation shall be
based on the number of male voters in
each county, and shall be apportioned
each six years. The house has 100 mem
bers, while fifty Senators comprise the
membership of the upper branch Of the
Assembly.
A constitutional amendment will be
introduced in the regular session to IN
clude women in the enumeration Of voters
SO that they may be considered In the
reapportionment. The apportionment to
be made at this session OF the assembly
Will be on the enumeration of voters
made in 1910
Lake County will gain one representa-
tive, making it's representation in the
lower house five instead Of four. st
Joseph County gained in population, but
1t will remain with the will Of the Legis-
lature whether it will gain in Legislative
representation. Vigo, Madison and How
ard Counties also may receive additional
representation.

tricts may also be taken up by the next

Turn Attention to Redeem

With the election over and Mayor
Charles W. Jewett asserting. I'VE must
get down and get some Of this business
DONE" city department heads have be-
gun to take stock of the work which
they hope to do during the coming year.
They find a tremendous program await
ing their administrative efforts If they
hope to go out of office with the record
of things accomplished which was prom
ised by Mr.. Jewett before his election.
Foremost among the things which the
administration says it desires to get
done are to have practically all OF the
track elevation project completed, the
street improvement program carried
through, the municipal yards under way,
the collection of garbage and the dis
posa1 of sewage on a modern basis, a
$500, 900 nurses home at the City Hos
pital erected, the fire department motor
lied and placed under the two platoon
system and a number of swimming pools
and shelter houses erected in the public
Aparks and Fairgrounds.

Many of these projects have been prom
Used by the administration for the past
two years, but. 1t is said. they have been
held up either through the lack Of
money, due to the muddle which the mis-
take of taxing authorities at the court
house in 1919 caused or by the unsettled
conditions of the bond market. With
financial conditions becoming steadier
and with good prospect of the city being
able to make it's taxes and its expendi-
lures meet next year, this excuse will
have vanished

dent of the board, says he believes the

The board Of public safety expects to
see the complete INFORMATION Of the fire
department and the erection Of two new
fire houses before the end OF next year
| as well as the establishment OF the two
platoon system in the department The
budget for 1921 provides for the gradual
Strengthening Of personnel OF the fire
force until there are enough men TO have
the two-platoon system In full operation.
1t is hoped to accomplish this by the
middle Of the year.
! 1t is probable also that the board Of
safety will do something definite toward
carrying out It's long heralded promises
to rehabflitate the city market. II has
been so long since the board started out

AID Western tracks across Washington
street to Massachusetts avenue and of
the Pennsylvania tracks east to State
street
These latter extensions depend, of
course, upon the financial condition of
the railroads involved. The city will
be we'll fixed with funds for this work.
The downtown work which remains to
be done includes the finishing touches
on the Union Station, and the Senate
avenue, Noble, Davidson and East streets
subways. Extension of the elevation
across Washington street is contingent,
to some extent, upon change in track
plans which the Lake Erie and Western
company contemplates, Mr.. Elliott said.
This should not serve as a bar serious
enough to prevent the completion of the
section by the end of 1921 all other things
being favorable, he added.
MAY PUSH ELEVATION
OF INDIANAPOLIS UNION.
1t is possible, the track elevation en-
gineer said, that some move toward the
elevation of the Belt Railroad. from
White River, across the entire west side
may be undertaken next year, depending
upon the financial ability OF o4-cials Of
the Indianapolis Union Railway Com
pany and their attitude toward the i'm
provement This improvement should be
made by the end of 1922 at least, Mr..
Elliott believes, and then attention should
be given to the growing demands for
elevation on the south side.
The street improvement work which
must be dore next year if the Jewett adj
ministration leaves the thoroughfares in
as good shape as 1t received them from
the Joseph z. Bell regime, will keep the
board of public works, the city civil en-
gineer and Street Commissioners A 0.
Meloy busy for twelve months. The
board of works admits that 1t did not
get all the resurfacing work done this
summer that Il had planned, chiefly BE-
cause many resolutions were postponed

Of property owners that labor and ma

HAIR REMEDY
You Can Make a Better Gray Hair
Remedy Than You Can Buy.

Gray, streaked or faded hair is not
only unbecoming, but unnecessary.
Anyone can prepare simple mix
ture at home that will darken gray
hair, and make it soft and glossy.
To half-pint of water add 1 ounce
Of bay rum, small box of Rarbo
Compound and x ounce Of glycerine.
These ingredients can be buoght at
any drug store at very little cost, or
the druggist will put it up for you.
Apply to the hair twice a week until
the desired shade is obtained. This
will make a gray-haired person look
twenty years younger. It is easy to
use, does not color the scalp, ,s not
sticky or greasy and does not rub OF.

street completely across the north side.
OFFICIALS STILL PLAN
FOR MUNICIPAL YARD.
The board plans to get the municipal
yards at Kentucky avenue and Drovel
street under way this spring. as soon
as financial plans can be worked out
The first unit TO be built will be the
street cleaning and ash hauling depart
ment barns, since 1t is desired to vacate
the present barns at 1884 Shelby street
at the earliest possible moment This
unit can be erected at q cost of ap-
proximately 100000, 1t Is estimated.
Additional motors and trailers for the
ash hauling department are being pur-
chased at the present time in order that
the increased ash output, due to the
great number of new apartment houses
on the north side, may be adequately
handled and the future growth of the
city kept pace with.
The problem of garbage collection will
receive further attention in 1921. II
| is the hope Of the board of works that
the coming Legislature will put the
collection In charge OF the board OF
sanitary commissioners, which body Is
charged with the duty of garbage dis
posal The board OF works collects gar
bage in Anticipated wagons, bought with
the $4,000 garbage plant which cost the
city $4,000, and hauls 1t to station at
Kentucky avenue and Drover street
where it is loaded on to railroad cars
and shipped to the garbage disposal plant
at Sellers farm. Should the sanitary
board be forced by law to take over
the collection 1t is contended by City
Purchasing Agent Dwight S. Ritter and
the board of works that additional mo-
tor equipment of the same kind as that
Of the ash-hauling department, should
be bought so that most OF the total APP
paratus could be swung into the gar
base department in the summer and to
tie ash hauling department in the win
ter. Sixty thousand dollars worth OF
such equipment would put the garbage
collection on a modern basis.
If the garbage department were mo-
torized the expense Of the loading sta
ton and the upkeep of the present mules
and wagons would be eliminated.
