WINCHESTER THIEVES
TAKE CLOTHING, SILKS,
FROM STORE TUESDAY
Especial to The Palladium

WINCHESTER Ind, Sept. 21-
Robbers looted the NJ. L. Mills and
Sons department store here Tuesday
night and made away with about
$1,000 worth of clothing and silk
goods. The burglars evidently were
good judges of clothing, as nothing
but the most expensive things in the
store were disturbed, according to Mr..
Mills.
A handbag belonging to the store
was filled with silk shirts, ties and
stockings, but was overlooked by the
persons on their departure from the
store.
Enter Through Back Door
Entrance was gained through a
back door, which was pried open
Shirts, ties, hosiery, mems suits and
overcoats formed the greatest part OF
the booty. None of the shoes was
disturbed
A similar robbery was pulled at the
Mills store two years ago when about
$1,000 worth of the same kind OF mn
terial was stolen. No Glow has been
found by police, although they are
thought TO believe in the home talent
theory.

Backus Scores Failures
While the question of what action
to take was still before the pastors
and laymen Tuesday night the Rev.
A. H. Backus made speech in which
he said that upon two other occasions
evangelistic movements for Richmond
had failed because of a "luke-warm-
ness" of attitude. He named the
campaign which was to have been
county wide under auspices of the
Church Federation of Wayne County,
and the proposed Gypsy" Smith evan
gelistic meetings which were under
consideration some months ago. DR.
Backus laid much Of the blame for
the failure of these campaigns upon
the ''lethargy" of the ministerial body

new YORK TRAFFIC
RULES CHANGED At
MERCHANTS REQUEST

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-Again they
are tinkering with New York's traf-
fic.
The, police department long has
been una BILE to dodge the laws Of
physics that two objects cant occupy
the same space at the same minute.
And with the number of automobiles
increasing daily and the crowd of Pc
destrians holding its own, the traffic
problem is becoming worse.
In the old days, traffic went up and
down Broadway much the same way
it does in any main street the country
over, though with the same hectic
confusion that reigns in the subways
beneath the world-famous thorough
fare.
One-Way Plan Tried
But a little while ago it was de-
cided that at night, at hours when
most theatre-goers were bound up
Manhattan to their homes, Broadway
between 3Sth and 57th streets should
become a one-way street.
Now that plan has been abandoned.
Merchants have complained that the
northbound nightly traffic was divert
ing to other thoroughfares business
which should come TO them.
So Special Deputy Police Commits
sioner Harris has ruled that for a 30
day trial period two-way traffic shall
be restored, to be regulated by signal
towers such as have been operating
for many months on Fifth avenue.
Signal lamps atop these towers COM
mand traffic all along Fifth avenue
to halt or proceed at the same mo-
ment. If couple of experimental
towers work out all right on Broad
way, the city will be asked to install

At this time Democratic leaders are
again confidently predicting that in
1922 the solid Republican congress

again the Republican leaders are VOL
dering if they will be able to once

cratic strongholds. They have more
confidence now in their ability to do
this than they had last year, but they
still admit that the four southern In
diana districts are doubtful.
Much dependence is placed by the
Republican leaders in the personal
popularity each of the four Republican
congressman from the southern part
of the state enjoys among his con
stituents, Rep. O. R. Luhring, in the
first; Rep. Oscar E. Bland in the
