ACQUAINTS RICHMOND
SHIPPERS WITH WORK
OF INDIANA C. OF C.

S. n. Vaughan, assistant manager. of
the Indiana State Chamber of Com
merce was in Richmond Tuesday to
acquaint shippers with the work of
ttheorganization and the manner in
which the freight and traffic depart
ment work affects Richmond shippers.
In speaking of the freight rate stu
alton Assistant Manager Vaughn said:
The Indiana State Chamber of Com
merce is keenly alive to the fact that
freight rates in Indiana are discrim-
inatory and that shippers of this state
are carrying the heavy load on rates.
For some time the organization has
made steady fight for fair rate on
shipments from Indiana points and
great strides have been made, but
shippers of the state see the great
need of more than a steady fight and
consequently the state chamber has
been placed on a much larger basis
than formerly. Our budget last year
was $4,000, while this year it was
placed at $4,000
"At the present time the organiza-
ton has Is members in Richmond, but
hopes to increase that number to at
.
feel that shippers of this locality are
willing and ready to support an or
ganization that is stressing as their
main plank the reduction and read
iustment of freight rates from Indiana
points.
Saves Local Shippers
"The Twin Cities case that dealt
with rates on shipments from Indiana
points to st. Paul and Minneapolis.
has recently been decided in favor OF
the State Chamber. The decision was
handed down by the Interstate Com
merce Commission and means a reduc-
ton to Richmond shippers in to the
Twin Cities and points further west
and northwest from $50 first class to
$145 with the other classes reduced
accordingly. The commission instruct
ed the carriers to make such adjust
ment to become effect July 1. This
will mean thousands of dollars saved
annually to shippers of this vicinity.
Another case that will vitality effect
not only Richmond manufa cturers and
coal dealers but the general public is
the Indiana Coal Case brought by the
state chamber before the commission
at Washington. This petition asks for
decrease in Richmond of 80 cents
per ton on all soft coal shipped here
from Indiana mines. The present rate
is S175 per ton and the petition sets
forth the need of a rate of $145 per
ton This rate is purely discrimina-
tory at present and when readjusted
will give the Indiana mines an equal
advantage with eastern shipments. An
eastern coal case is also before the
commission along with a number of
others that will vitality effect shippers
of this vicinity"

Woman Collects Money
For Operation, Spends
1t For Other Purposes

That another woman imposter has
been imposing on merchants and citi-
Zens of Richmond, was discovered
Tuesday by Miss Ethel Clark, secre-
tary of the Social Service bureau
This woman, who calls herself Mrs
A. K. Wilson, has been going about
collecting subscriptions, saying that
she has been sent here from Corners.
vile for an operation at Reid Me-
mortal hospital. Miss Clark was asked
20 investigate the case. She found
that the woman had used the same
trick in Connersville, Shelbyville, and
a number of other cities. The woman
told Miss Clark that she had lived in
Connersville a year and that she had
been sent here from that city because
thH hospital at that place was full.
Ms Clark said the woman later
admitted that she had been in Con
nersville only few days, and calls to
Connersville revealed that her state
ments were true.
The woman really needs an opera
ton, Miss Clark said, and her prac-
tice is to go to physician in town,
get him to make a statement that she
needs the operation, and then collect
money. She does not use the money
to have the operation performed. how
ever.
Miss Clark said that on one page OF
her subscription sheet the woman had
collected S65. Many who did not give
cash promised to send checks to the
woman.
The woman was taken into custody
by the police and is being held in Jail
pending further investigation.

momentary lull in the military opera
tons north of this city, owing to the
fact that WI Pei-Fu, victorious in his
campaign against Chang Tso-Lin near
Picking, has not concentrated. sufficient
forces in the neighborhood of Tang
shan for an attack on Chang's army,
which is entrenched there. A move
ment of Wu's troops on large scale
is expected to begin shortly.
Thousands of Fengtien soldiers who
were disarmed and some even depriv-

ture in the Picking campaign are en-
barking for Newchwang (Yingkow),
Manchuria. Among those leaving are
about a score of Russians from Man
chuli, who served as troopers in the
Fengtien cavalry. The Chilli leaders
appear confident that these repatriated
prisoners will refuse to rejoin Chang's
army.

IDEAL BOYS CAMP
BUILDS CHARACTER,
SAYS PERRY WILSON

''The boys ideal camp is that one
which builds character and one which
carries definite purpose" Perry VIII
son, boys work secretary of the Y. NJ.
G. A. explained to the Rotary club
Tuesday. Mr.. Wilson was called be-
fore the Rotary club to explain thor
oughly the actual nature of a boys
real camp which is to be available
for the boys of Richmond.
vacation time is the pride of a
boys lifetime. He loves to get out
into the sunshine, next to nature and
get his arms tanned, so that he can
show with pride the extent of his
healthful condition. The greatest en-
1oyment is derived by being with the
boy and helping bring forth the best
character in him." said Mr.. Wilson.
The summer time is when the
boys generally go wrong, if they are
not taken care of. When he is not in
school, with something to detract his
mind from idleness, is when he be-
comes subject to doing the wrong
things. Boys penned up in the school
room all winter need to get out, away
from civilization, next to nature her.
SELF
Relates Incident
Mr.. Wilson related an incident
which occurred on his camp trip to
Camp Kern last summer. He said,
"A certain lad, named Johnny, wanted
to go along on the camp trip and fin
ally he gained his mothers consent. ]
learned that he liked nothing to eat
but peanut butter and bread. Johnny
went along on the trip and upon his
arrival in camp, became sick with
fever. He was given the best care
possible, and one evening, he follow
ed the rest of the boys and myself on
hike up into the hills. 1t stormed
that night and the party returned in
a machine to the camp. Johnny had
rolled up into his blanket and the next
morning he was found in that wet
blanket, and wet to the skin himself.
Johnny was given a rundown and
from that time on, he was one of the
most lively lads of the camp. He was
the first to get into the swimming and
other activities. He began 70 eat
real food and he returned to his home
in fine shape"
This is only one example of the
many benefits of the bows camp which
were related by Mr.. Wilson.
Trained for leadership.
Eighteen fellows have been under
the instruction of Perry Wilson during
the past year for the work as leaders
in camp work. and these fellows will
be the ones which will aid in the boys
camp.
Mr.. Wilson said that the boys were
not allowed to take firearms into
camp. Neither can they use tobacco,
and nobody is allowed to go into the
wafer until the life-guards have been
stationed and the boys are all ready
10 go into the water
What We want is a camp located
in the wilds. away from civilization,
away from nick-nacs. where the boys
can partake of substantial foods to
build them up.
IF mothers come to the camp with
cake and the boys partake of it, they
will become sick. then the camp as
whole is blamed for it. If the boys
are kept away from the undesired
food, they viii be benefited greatly"
Mr. Wilson closed with the state
ment that everything was handled
with the utmost discipline, and that
each boy was expected to read daily.

WASHINGTON, May 16- Having
declared before the world their whole

for daily sessions and for adequate
publicity. 1t was indicated that the
delegations probably would come to-

u. S. MAKES MOVE
TO PREVENT RISE
IN PRICE OF COAL
CBy Associated Press,


WASHINGTON, May 16.-Steps are
being taken by the government to
forestall tendencies toward rising
prices of bituminous coal at the mines.
it was said today at the White House.
Secretary Of Commerce Hoover has
the matter of investigation and action
in charge, it was said.
The view of the administration is
that there is no reason for any in
crease in the price of coal at the mine
now despite the general coal strike,
because the surplus above ground to-
gether with the continuing production
OF non-union coal in very substantial
amount is sufficient to insure the
country coal supply for many weeks.
Secretary Hoover, supplementing the
White House statement said, cooper
alton of mine operators and large coal
buyers will be sought to meet the sit
uation arising from the sporadic rise
in the price of coal at the mines in
some districts
There is, he said, plenty of coal and
in some non-union fields the mines are
still in operation so that there is APP
parently no reason for a rise in prices
in the mines in some districts except
for local conditions and bidding on
the coal. Mr.. Hoover said that in
some districts prices had risen from
about 81 at the mine to SO and 81
ton.
