naittee Of the Hammond city council
has been making a tour OF inspection
this week 70 get q line on conditions
which may need attention.
The aldermen also had conference
with President Talmadge o. the street
car company in which suggestions
we're offered looking toward the i'm
provement OF the car service in Ham
mond These for the most part con
sisted OF plans for rerouting cars 50
that residents OF various parts Of the
city may have direct communication
with the business district and transfer
points.
Mr.. Talmadge promised to give the
suggestions consideration and at the
same time explained that he had been
thinking OF having all runs end at
State and Holman streets. making the
loop now used BY the Chicago cars,
Thus the East Hammond run. the
East Chicago-Indiana IIarbor run and
the Chicago run would all be inde-
pendent and interruption Of service
en- one part would not tie up service
en- other divisions.

COLORED BOY
IS MISSING

Luther IS just a six-ycar-old coIoreo
boy living in a Gary neighborhood
where there arc SO many little colored
boys that ii would seem that one little
colored boy wouldn't be missed.
Funny thing about little boys. No
matter how many of them there are
it's Just the righ tnumber and people
can't afford to lose even one. That's
probably the reason that all the color
ed men and women and boys and girls
within three blocks OF 2so9 Fillmore
street ask each other several times a
day whether they have seen Luther.
Luther was playing in front Of his
home at $500 Fillmore street. Thursday
afternoon. He was dressed in overalls.
sweater. gray cap and tan shoes. lie
hasn't been seen since and Jerry VIII
son HIS father and Nina Wilson, his
mother. haven't slept since. They've
looked everywhere for Luther. The
police are also lookig. If you see a
coIored boy that looks lost and every
thing notify the Gary police.

GERMANY
AFTER HER
COLONIES
SWedeS Against SCrapping Of
League for u. S. to Form
New Body

- EsTAFF CORRESPONDENT !. N. sERVICEl
2 GENEVA. Nov. 2O.-The great con-
eroversy over whether Lord Robert
Cecil. representative OF South Africa In
the league of nations assembly meet
sng would move the admission OF Ger
nany into the league was definitely
settled today by Lord Robert Cecil
himself who declared that he does not
3ntend to take such action.
"I favor a policy of consultation to-
ward Germany. but it IS too late tc
move Germanys admission at the pres
ant session" said Lord Robert. There
s. no reason that Germany should re-
esive special 4avors over any other ma
lions that are now outside the league
The speech OF George Nicholl Barnes.
of the British delegation. who said
zhat labor seeks the immediate adu1ls-
elon Of Germany to the iegaue has Gre
sted a profound impression
The admission OF Germany Is sup
ported also by Argentine. DR.. Pueyr~
Se6on, the foreign minister OF Argen-
tina. said that his speech before the
assembly IN favor Of the admission OF
the former enemies OF the allies
sIeaves no doubt as to the attitude OF
Argentine"
The most sensational incident o$ the
meeting so far was the protest OF
Germany against the retention OF the
mandates for the former German
colonies BY the iater-ailied supreme
council and Gerr,anys threat to break
the treaty OF Versailles. In some
quarters this is regarded as the open
ing Of a campaign by Germany 70 at
tempt TO retrieve at least part OF her
former colonial possessions.
DR.. HalInar Branting. OF the Swed
ish delegation. protests against the
scrapptng Of the present league IN or
der TO allow the U s. to create a new
association Of powers.
We cannot throw away everything &
We have done simply because It does
not please a large element OF the L.
s, said Dr.. Brauting.
But II is q big step. There Is much
IN the covenant which Is good I an
confident that the present session OF
the league will further democratize
the covenant, showing the U. s. that
the best thing for her to do IS to ente-
and assist in further revislons OF the
future OF world peace. American
critics who say that the league +:
worthless only succeed in being aou-
eive."

BUSINESS
ARTICLES
ARE PRAISED
Protest Voiced BY Union
Man Regarding Ban Put
on Department Store
Shopping in Hammond.

To such an extent has the series OF
articles on local conditions running in
these columns this week seized upon
the popular interest in Hammond anu
so widely discussed in business and
labor circles that a demand has been
made for their continuance by civic
bodies who feel that ley touch upon
matters that are vital 70 the interests
and welfare of Hammond The last few
articles with interviews dealing with
the picketing and boycott instituted
against the three department stores
have aroused public opinion TO an un
precedented degree and it is pointed
out that many people were actually
unaware of the existing situation
which was first denominated a strike
but later developed the fact that fully
20 per cent Of the clerks who walked
out months ago have long been back
at work.
OUTSIDE CITIES BENEFITTING.
People are taking significant inter
est in news Of the boycott and are not
slow to comment on the injustice OF It.
sympathy seems 10 be pretty general
with the merchants involved. It is
weli-established fact now that the
boycott Is hurting ths business COM
munity and driving trade to Chicago
and outside towns such as Gary. East
Chicago and Whiting. These cities
have not been slow to take advantage
OF the situation and are Turing shop
pers with attractive bargains to their
stores. As one slugle-line merchant
who for obvious reasons was reticent
regarding the use OF his name said.
This local boycott viii hurt business
in general in the long run and the idea
o. such a boycott Is wrong"
CHARGE DISCRIMINATION.
There are a1arge number OF people
in Hammond who believe that the de-
partment store merchants are being
unjustly Disseminated against and
will join IN a protest. The situation
does not meet even with the approval
Of all union men. One well-known
union man said that he regretted that
neither he nor his family were per-
mitted to trade in their own stores
where they had been customers and
friends for years. lie continued.
members Of our family cannot avail
themselves Of the bargains offered in
the department stores. Things that
we want to get in these stores that we
need we are not permitted to buy un-
der penalty and 7 don't think that is
just. I don't think it is fair to men
with families to force them to go out
side OF the city for certain things"
STARTED BY OUTSIDER.
THE way / look al it, said one
Hammond lady. is this 1t is vital to
tho business OF these department
stores that the men who own them
should be the ones to say how they
shall operate them. whom they shall
hire and whom they shall keep in their
employment"
1t seems to be the general impress
sion that all the agitation and trouble
which lead to the picketing and boy
colt was started by an agitator who is
totally an outsider in Hammond aui
who has carried on his campaign in
other cities and more often failed 10

ROME. Nov. 20.-Pope Benedict XIV
is preparing to ask the Prince OF
Monaco TO close up Monte Carlo. tho
ever known. That the pontiT plans
this step in great crusade against
immortality throughout the whole
world became known today.
Diplomatic relations have been re-
newed between the Vatican and tho
little Principality of Monaco after an
interruption OF eight years and n.
DeFontarce has arrived here with his
credentials TO represent the Prince OF
Monaco at the holy see
Vatican circles regard the resump-
tion OF diplomatic relations with the
psincipality OF Monaco as a develop
ment OF great Importance despite the
fact that the principality consists OF
only eight square miles OF territory
containing the casino. some luxurious
kotels, 9 park and the princes palace.
Pope Benedict XIV has long oeen
anxious TO do away with gambling at
Monte Carlo. but he could not ap-
pToach the prince OF Monaco directly
so long as relations between tho vati-
can and the principality were broken.
The pontif holds that the gambling at
Monte Carlo IS a source of immortality
70 both men and women and an appall-
ing waste OF money and human life.
There is little likelihood. however.
that the pontin's request viii meet
with success, no matter how urgent It
may be made
Even among officials close to the
vatican no hope is held out that the
great gambling resort Will be closed.
The original trouble bet vecn the
vatican and the principality os Monaco
