given to guarding Pulpite Pass, which
military officers assert can be guard

number and through which an attack
on Augua Prieta would have to come.

Hiram Johnson Surprises Both

Big Vote-Only One-Sixth
of Women Go to Polls.
CHICAGO IS FOR WOOD
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, April 15.-According to
latest returns today, Governor Frank
o. Lowden, of Illinois, won the Re-
publican presidential preference prl-
mary in his home state yesterday by
a plurality of 64,574 on returns from
all but 430 scattered precincts, al
though Major General Wood carried
Cook county (Chicago) by 27,443 and
Senator Hiram Johnson, Of California.
whose name had to be written ON the
ballot, surprised political leaders by
running up vote OF 45,193 votes, In
Guiding 40,881 in Cook county.
There were no Democratic candi-
dates on the ticket, but number OF
names were written in by few hun
dred voters.
Thompson In Control
Mayor William Hale Thompson, of
Chicago, Republican national commit
teeman for Illinois, carried every
ward except one for committeeman,
thereby gaining complete. control of
the Cook county organization for four
years.
Less than half the vote in the state
was cast, and only sixth as many
women as men went to the polls.
General Wood, the only candidate to
make a campaign in the state, carried
McDonough, Alexander and Pulaski
counties in addition to Cook, but all
! the other SO counties went to Cover
nor Lowden, who in the complete un-
official returns scored a majority of
1881 over his opponents.
The governor rolled up a vote down
state that reached margin Of as high
as seven to one in one or two coun-
ties, bringing him to the Cook county
line with Early 100000 lead over
General Wood.
johnson Is Popular.
The surprise of the primary. accord
ing to supporters of both Governor
Lowden and General Wood, was the
large number of voters who wrote in
the name of Senator Johnson, who
had made no speeches in Illinois, and
had no organization.
Supporters of both regular candi.
dates asserted that the Johnson vote
hurt their candidate to the benefit OF
| the other. Never in Illinois or possi
bly, national politics had sa many yot
ers voted a sticker ticket.
The largest previous spontaneous
vote recorded in Illinois was that fol-
Theodore Roosevelt in 1916, when
some 10000 votes were written in for
him. In Chicago, where the bulk OF
the Johnson vote was cast the John
son voted showed a smaller percent
age of women than that for Governor
Lowden or General Wood. The lead
| ers polled about one-sixth as many fe
male as male votes while the Cali
fornian polled only one-seventh as
i many women as men.

DR.. Smith Celebrates Twenty-ninth
Anniversary as Head of Easthauen
BY EMMA L. FETTA.

DR.. S. E. Smith. nationally known
psychiatrist, has a record unequalled
in Indiana, and perhaps in the nation.
He celebrates his 10Th anniversary as
head of public institution. the East
ern Indiana Hospital for the Insane.
Wednesday.
At the youthful age of 20, DR.. Smith,
a graduate of Indiana University and
University of Sorcisville, then a prac-
ticing physician at Gosport, Ind,
became interested in the mind and its
diseases. 1t was mere chance that he
took up the science as a study. A
friend pointed out the need of research
in this direction and, he undertook
personal investigation.
In 1888 he went to Logansport and
worked for three years as assistant to
DR.. Rogers, head of the Northern
Indiana Hospital for the Insane. In
1891 he was appointed assistant med.
ical superintendent of the Kalamazoo
Mich, Hospital for Insane. Before he
could report for duty, call. however
came from the Indiana authorities ap
pointing him head of the recently
organized Eastern Indiana Hospital fol-
Insane. He came to Easthaven on
April IA. 1891 and has been in contin
uous service there since.

COMMERCIAL CLUB
WILL DECIDE FATE;
MAY BE DISbANDED

Final disposition of the Commercial
club will be made at a meeting of
members called for Monday, April 10.
The directors have felt for some
time that the organization was not
absolutely necessary for the develop
ment of the city, as many of its func-
tions are now being performed by
bodies that originally were fathered
by the club.
The meeting next Monday night, it
Is expected, will reveal the sentiment
of the members toward a continuance
of the club or its abandonment.
100000 Fund Still Exists
The 100000 industrial fund, col
lected under the auspices of the club,
still exists and is managed by the
trustees and directors elected for this
purpose.
This fund will still be available for
the promotion of factories if the club
should disband.
The housing proposition Is being
promoted by the Richmond Construc-
ton company and will not be affected
by the, status of the club. This
movem mt also had it's inception in
the club.

ST FOR EACH DAY OF
SERVICE PROMISED
TO war VETERANS
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, April 14.-A COM
posite soldier relief bill granting ad-
justed compensation at 81 for each
days service to approximately 3.OOO.-
600 former service men will be re-
ported to the house within a week,
Chairman Fordney, of the ways and
means committee, announced today
Passage of the measure by the house
Is planned before May /. Senate
leaders announced the bill would be
approved by the senate before the
conventions in June, should 1t be
passed by the house this month.
With the elimination of all com
missioned officers, along with those
who served less than 60 days, or who
were employed in shipyards or re
ceived from the employers the differ
ence between their civilian incomes
and army pay, the number of those
eligible has been narrowed to about
100000. Experts have informed the
committee that the average service
is ten months, making the average
payment $500 to each man. Those
who were commissioned after serving
as enlisted men would be paid on q
basis of time served in the ranks.
No Plan for Revenue
No definite plan for raising neces
sary revenues has been decided uCOn
the plan most favored being fla
tax of not more than one per cent or
all sales. Such a tax, the committee
has learned from treasury department
officials, would net approximately
$1,000, 100000, or more than needed
1t is expected that the other provi
sions of the original bill presented by
the American Legion, granting prior
lty in land settlements, home building
aid, and extension of vocational train
ing also will be recommended by thu
committee.
Although the ways and means com
mittee is expected to report the meas
ure promptly. some members of the
house believe it will not be passed
by the senate before the conventions
The attitude of both parties, they
claim, will be announced at the re
spective conventions and final actor
will be deferred until after congres!
reconyenes late in the summer.

PRIMARY ELECTION
PLANS PROGRESSING:
NOMINATIONS SLOW

Plans for the primary elections,
which will be held by both Republican
and Democratic parties on Tuesday,
May 4, are progressing slowly, owing
to the delay in the organization of pre-
cinct election boards.
At this primary, precinct committee
men are chosen by both Republicans
and Democrats for each of the sc vot-
ing precincts in the county, in addition
to the nomination of all county officers
to be elected next fall, and the prefer
entail vote for president and vice
president, governor, United States
senator and congressman. Delegates
to the Republican and Democratic con-
ventions also will be voted on.
The inspectors at all precincts will
be Republicans, while the judges and
clerks will be equally divided, two of
each, between the Republicans and
Democrats:
Inspectors will be allowed r.. three
days pay, or So; judges and clerks
will receive two days pay. Sc each.
No Candidate Can Serve.
No candidate for any office, even
though such candidacy be for precinct
committeeman or state convention del
egate can serve as inspector or as a
member Of a board. The chairman of
each Republican and Democratic co..
mittee Is required by law, to file with
the county election commissioners, a
list in writing nominating all election
board members.
This had not been done Wednesday
by either party, neither have the elec-
ton voting places been designated 1t
Is probable, however, that the last
voting places will be ready for an
nouncement within the next few days.

INCOMES UNABLE TO
MEET FOOD PRICES
COMMISSION FINDS
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON. April 14.-Declar-
ing that the costs of food distribu-
tions are too great the federal trade
commission today recommended i'm
proved marketing facilities and pro-
cesses at the great consuming centers,
as a long step towards lowering the
high cost Of living.
The movement of food should be
most direct from field to factory" the
commission declared in a report on
wholesale marketing of food, one of
the series in the food price investiga-
ton ordered by the president.
Elimination of unnecessary costs
and losses in food distribution the re-
port added, would not only "act as a
food prices and money incomes, but
would strengthen the nations position
in its competition for world trade"
Need More Money.
The report asserts that the rapid
rise in food prices in recent years is
not so significant as that the money
far short of a proportional increase.
The weekly wage of union organiz-
ed labor in 1918 bought but II per
cent (according to the department OF
labor as much food as in 1913. The
larger number of service incomes do
not fall within this organized group
and are much slower to respond to the
pressure of a higher cost of living
Moreover, these incomes are for the
same reason usually less in amount
1t follows that for very large numbers
OF people receiving relatively small in
comes, weeks wage in 1918 was
purchasing much less than II per cent
of the food it bought in 1913.
Absorbs Income.
Food absorbs 3S.2 per cent Of the
average American households income
It therefore constitutes no inconsider
able part Of the wage and salary cost
in all production. of two communities
whose products enter the same mar
kets, otherwise equally that one which
supplies it's working people with foot
at a lower community cost either will
pay its working people a higher rea
wage or will have a marked advantage
in underselling the other through low
production costs. Both results may il
some measure follow.
"a wise governmental policy to
wards the food industries may lower
production and distribution costs to
gether with the final sales price with
out proportionally increasing govern
mental costs. thus reducing the nation
