Buys Frontage on
Washington Street

A frontage OF 171a feet at $40 Washing
ton street has just been sold by the
Fletcher Savings and Trust Company,
guardian for William Henry Stout, to
Jesse A. Shearer. president of the Indiana
Gravel Company, and a director of the
Realty Investment Company, for S20,OOO,
or more than $1,000 a front foot. Mr..
Shearer owns a 20 foot frontage adjoin
this property and the Realty Investment
Company owns a ninty nine year lease
on a property with 100 foot frontage
adjoining both the Shearer tracts.
Persons in touch with the various real
estate deals indicated yesterday that the
entire frontage of 1874 feet eventually
may be the site of a modern downtown
business property. Buildings now are
on the frontage. Scott Brewer, of the
real estate department of the Washington
Bank and Trust Company, negotiated the
sale from the Fletcher Savings and Trust
Company to Mr. Shearer.
The Fletcher Company as trustee for
the Charles L. Dietz estate, also has sold
a frontage OF 60 feet on Maple Road
Boulevard. at lockwood avenue to
Adolph Buar, florist, who will erect his

DISCRIMINATION
LEAGUE TOPIC
Works Board Fails to Get
Ashby's Opinion.

Failure Of Corporation Counsel Samuel
Ashby to give to the board of public
works a ruling as to whether or not it
has a legal right to assume Jurisdiction
Of the petition for the disannexation of
West indianapolis is expected to be the
chief topic for discussion at the weekly
meeting of the Enterprise Civic League,
in Assumption Hall, 11O5 Blaine avenue,
this evening.
The petition. bearing more than 5000
names, was filed with the board Of public
works more than two weeks ago. The
board declined to set a date for hearing
upon the document until it resolved an
opinion from Mr. Ashby. 1t promised
that such a ruling would be had within
two days. When the leaders of the dis
annexation movement went back to the
city hall the board informed them that
the corporation counsel was out Of town
and the matter would have to be post
poned further. Since then no move has
been made.
Failing to get a hearing before the
board OF public works the petitioners
claim they may go to the city council OF
begin action in Circuit Court.

attempted to mark some of the deadly
crossings and could mark them all II we
could get even a 90 per cent support from
owners of motor vehicles in Indiana.

STRANGE BED FELLOWS.

The hearings in Washington on the supple
fnent to the Volstead law brought out a strange
pair of bed fellows. Standing side by side, fight
Ing for the same strict law were representatives
of the AntiSaloon league and of Anheuser
Busch, Inc, OF st. Louis, firm which once
probably the greatest brewer of real beer in the
world. .r t.t
The testimony of the Anheuser Busch witnesses
astonishing; not because of what they said
but because they should be the to say it.
Oliver r. Remmers, counsel for the company, not
only declared that there emergency demand
for beer medicine, but did what it never
dreamed that a brewery man would dQ-de-
manded that congress- Investigate the lax en-
forcement of the laws against the manufacture
of real beer. Remmers claimed that brewers in
Pennsylvania Ohio and Illinois were making real
beer and that prohibition enforcement officers
doing nothing stop it.
August A. Busch president of the company
sent the congressional committee wire opposing
beer medicine the ground that it would
favor the rich. Beer for all or beer for none"
his advice.
When the Busch interests line up behind the
Anti-Saoon league and the advocates OF strict pro-
hibition generally, there il chance for real law
enforcement The reason behind the Busch in
terest is plain. The firm has been making near
beer in large quantities. 1t has taken the Amer
lean people at their word. 1t thought that the
adoption of the constitutional amendment sgnl-
fled that this nation through with Intoxicating
liquors. 1t transformed and expanded its business
on that theory
Now to meet In competition eastern brewers
who made the real thing" endangered the safety
OF the enormous investment the Busch company
had made. 1t is business necessity that makes the
oncerfamous brewery demand that the gates be
opened wide closed tight.
Out of the alliance of two groups heretofore
opposed may come just the needed stimulus to put
across a prohibition measure with new set Of
sharp teeth

WAS NAPOLEON GREAT?

From the columns of exchange we learn
that, in their town down in Oklahoma, quite a
war is on over the place in history which should
be occupied by Napoleon Bonaparte. We assume
that the anniversary of his deathday started the
articles and counter articles to Tying thick and
Iast.
Without presuming that any all Of us can
change the position of Napoleon in history, we
wish to get into the discussion ourselves.
Why all this divergence of opinion about the
greatness smalness of Bonaparte? 1t occurs to
that It is question of the standard of measure

Speaking Of who could so command the
hiSahy OF men that they would give their hres
to further his personal fortunes Napoleon ranks

lent used his great personality for good ends is
quite another matter. His. greatness a natural

their consent. His greatness a compelling leader

HEROES OF HIPPoCRATEs.

1t has long been the fashion to rail at doctors.
Their mistakes their fees and in instances,
their pretentious poses have long been the butt Of
jests by wags of the kind that classify all moth
ers-in-law pests and who pretend to believe
that Mr.. and Mrs. Jiggs typfy the modern hus-
band and wife,
Yet scarcely day passes that every reputable
member of the medical profession performs some
act of charity tempers his bill to suit the
pocketbook of poor man that would not accept
outright charity,
And occasionally, doctors perform acts of a
more spectacular nature Two physicians of New
Mexico recently lost their lives in the Navajo In
dian reservation, battling against disease the
exact nature of which baffled diagnosis for Il
tiI1e. s-s....
Only the other day. Philadelphia physician
pricked his finger while operating q pleural
pneumonia patient.
This is the last of me-" he is reported to have
exclaimed when the bit of steel entered his flesh.
For the steel was poisoned by pneumococcl and
the doctor realized their deadness
But he continued the operation. The patient
.oye.ed, but the physician died in agony.
The history OF medical science is full of such
cases. We merely refer to these few bainE
cent exaia 3les The history of the war'A'c that
the profession has waged against typhus in Mexico
alone furnishes notable chapter in tn annals
OF Hippo ratio heroism. The courageous odIte that
the doctors of the country put up during the flu
epidemic of two years ago furnishes still another
instance n
Yes, it is easy to follow the fashion and CEN

sheep charlatans, deride them because % their
innocent mistakes. While the profession is
posed of human beings, there will be unworthy

Then, all of a sudden, Uncle Wig

creatures seemed settling down on

stretched out his paws, to grasp
Uncle Wiggily's ears, flash of fire
seemed to break out all around the
bunny's head.
"Qh, your ears are on fire! Your
