HOW F. CHICAGO WAS
CLEANED Up BY POLICE

Some very startling results are ie-
vealed in the report of Chief Of
Police Christ c. Struss of arrests
made and Illicit liquor confiscated
by the East Chicago police depart
ment in this district since the incep-
ton of the present administration
on January End.
During this FIVE month period of
concerted raiding. 800 arrests have
been made, 1900 gallons of moon
shine" whiskey and lis stills con-
fiscated. Included in this list Of i'll
licit material was 10000 gallons of
m s h destroyed. Comparing the
1922 report with the corresponding
period in 1921 there is found less
than so arrests made for violation
of the liquor law. IT is needless to
say why the wide variation of ar
rests. Incidentally 1t might be ad-
ded that the put and take" system
OF years ago has been abandoned
and a clean plan of municipal gov
ernment adopted that will rival any
other second class city In the coun-

INDIANA HOME RULERS Are TREADING near S0VIETISM
ESQ Will
Lose einStore
Failures

That at least $50 Lake county per-
sons stand to lose close to 500 each
as a result of the failure Of the FIVE
branches of the National Stores Co.
in Hammond. East Chicago, Whit
ting and Gary is the belief express
ed after hurried investigation made
by Receiver Charles Surprise.
The stockholders started their rush
on the office of the receiver immed-
lately after It was announced that a
Chicago wholesale grocery firm had
asked for a receiver in the Ham
n1ond superior court Each day since
then scores have visited his Office
and sought information.
\ crowd formed in front of the
East Chicago store and threatened to
storm the doors and carry on
enough merchandise to make good
their losses on stock. However. they
we're quieted down and the dramatic
action was not taken.
One Hammond man holding three
certificates in separate stores. insists
he will push an investigation to find
If there has been any crooked work
in connection with the wrecking Of
the stores and that someone will go
TO the penitentiary If he has his
way.
1t was the rule of the company
that each stockholder was permitted
to hold only one share of stock in
any one store. Each store was to be
capitalized at $4,000 or 100 shares at
500 each. Two of the stores, hew-
ever. sold only IS shares.
Several changes of management
have take nplace since the company
first started operations in Indiana
and it is believed that the original
promoters have long since slipped
out of the organization.
Receiver Surprise now has the keys
to the five stores and his representa-
tive. w A. Kenney will start taking
the inventories tomorrow. 1t is ex-
pected that his report will show the
stocks to be sadly depleted and run
down.
