City Officials Meet

Major problems now Before the
various city administration depart
ments were discussed in detail by
city ogicials when meeting last ev-
ening at their regular monthly mu-
nicopal conference.
While informal. the City Planning
Commission idea occupied the atten-
ton of Mayor Callahan and members
of his round table and was received
with favorable expression from ev-
cry official present when It was de-
cided to follow through with the
idea of ultimately adopting the plan.
city Attorney Brissey and Comp
trolled Parks were requ ested to
the creating OF this new city de-
rartnent and make their recon-
mendations at the next meeting of
the city department heads. Novem-
Der 27th.
The idea Of blocking or coming
the city so as to keep industries out
OF the residential sections OF the
city is considered one of he most
vital problems and East Chicago's
salvation for future growth and
progressive existence.
1t was the opinion Of the majority
Of the officials that council mem
bers had made very grave mistake
BY taking such a firm stand OF fore
ing the Street Car company to pave
their right-of-ways on 15oth street
with particular class of road ma
erial. As a protection against the
city's liability from accidents that
might occur under he present condi-
lions on 150th street. department
heads suggesed adopting city or
dinance that would be acceptable to
the Public Service Commission and
make the Street Car company pave
this street with substantial and
grading paving.
The cement dust question was dis
cussed as was the purchase OF the
East Chicago and Indiana Harbor
Water Works. Both of these ques-
tions are In the hands OF City Attor-
ney Brissey for an opinion.

Health in Twin Cities

Health conditions today IN the

This Is due to a great extent to

Perhaps the most remarkable

Hot Water Auto Heater
Invented by Harbor Man

Louis Aeby of 1896 Ivy St. Indi-
ana Harbor. has brought to a sue
cessful conclusion a series OF expe-
riments in the development OF hot
water heating system for automo-
biles. utilizing the hot water that
is generated In the Jackets Of the
motor for heating the tonneau OF
the car during cold weather instead
of allowing that heat to be thrown
off into the air and wasted.
The heating system is called the
American Hot Water Auromooiie
heater and is being manufactured
and sold by the American Water
Heater Corporation, 2s3s-2s42 West
DIST St. Chicago. Their catalos,
handed to us by Mr.. Aeby. who Is
vice president OF the COMPANY
shows that the heater not only heats
the tonneau Of the car but It saves
gas and batteries and makes cold
weather starting easier because II
warns up the motor and heater
first. When returning to the car
after parking the heater IS still hot
The heat is uniform and clean. There
is no excess heat. no smell of gas
and carbon. no danger of sparks. no
SCOT and dust. no noise from the en-
hause detected inside the car. as is
frequently the case with the former
types of automobile heaters that
make use Of the hot gases from the
exhaust Of the engine.
The Installation consists of
heater unit in or on the floor OF the
car, connected at both ends with the
circulating system. 1t automatical-
ly diverts water from the engine
to the heater. Heat IS provided
within four minutes after motor Is
started. 1t IS an ideal system that
means perfect comfort in the car
during winter weather.
Engineers are rapidly making the
automobile an all-year-round con-
venience and utility and Mr.. Aeoy's
invention goes a long way in that
direction He is TO be congratulated
on bringing his work to such sue
cessful conclusion that It has at
tracted interest from a wide field
of the automobile trade and the
driving public. The heaters are now
on the market at prices from SIS TO
s35 complete.

Worknen Get Moonshine

Officials at the Mark plant have
been complaining to the East Chi
caso authorities for months that
several OF their switchmen and mill
laborers have been coming to work
mornings carrying a jag of moon
shine.
1t had gotten to the point that
workmen could be found at all hours
OF the day taking a recess from
their Jobs to liquor up" The
theory of the Mark officials as well
Al the Harbor police was that the
moonshine was being dispensed by
some employee within the plant
gates.
Accordingly. a surveillance COM
mittee was stationed over the plant
In search of this hootch dispenser.
Yesterday the arrest of Aldorlf
Swanson. an oiler at the Marks. was
made by Chief of Police Struss as
the man was caught furnishing a
co-worker with a drink. He was
brought before Judge Twyman In
the East Chicago city court yester-
day afternoon and fined s130 and
sentenced TO &C days at the Indiana
state farm.

BERNHARDT BACK
 ON STAGE, WED.

Paris. Dec. 30-(By The A. P.)- Whether Sarah Bernhardt, who an nounced emphatically yesterday that she was far from being finished" ard would return to her beloved stage next Wednesday, can persuade her physicians that she is ready for the opening performance of ''Un Sujet Deroman, seems problematical.
 The actress collapse is attributed to oVerwork rather than to organic ailment, but although she has set her heart on resuming her work as soon as possible, doctors and friends be- Ieve it may be necessary to keep her from the theatre a while long CT.
 If I rested too long I would not HVe, Bernhardt asserted She eX- plained that she had promised Sacha fiu1tfy, author of her new play, that she would be ready to act Wednesday evening.
