executed by dancers behind a screen.
BY means of ingeniously projected
lights the audience suffers the pleas

Heras and Wills have something
new in the way OF a tumbling act.
They unite an original little sketch
to acrobatic stunts that never fail
to bring applause.

It was largely the development Of
the South Bend exchange hearing
last summer which prompted the
state wide investigation. for in briefs
submitted by South Bend and Misha-
waka lawyers protesting against the
petition for increase. the cost per
unit OF telephone was attacked.
The severity OF the defense made
by the South Bend and Mishawaka

the exorbitant rate increase and the
demand for fuller knowledge OF the
contractual relations between the In
diana Bell and other companies. par
ccularly the A. T. and T. and the
Western Electric Co. is believed TO
have prompted the investigation.
shortly after the hearing was held
in. South Bend and local attorneys
had stated fully their contentious up

the rate increase. the public service
commission announced suspension Of
any decision in various telephone
utility rate cases in different cities
until the thorough probe had been
conducted.
Notices OF the hearings have been
sent 10 various city officials. and in

MORAN AGAIN In

MILLER'S ORDER
Business Man Seeks to Keep
WOrkmen From Destroying
Condemned Building.

Efforts OF Samuel D. Moran TO
continue in possession OF his cleo
trio store headquarters in the con-
demned building on y. Michigan ST.
which was Quilted by fire last Au-
gust, were featured by the filing Of
a petition for an injunction directed
against the owners Of the block and
State Fire Marshal Newman Miller.
Moran asks that they be restrained
from tearing down the building and
that he be allowed 10 continue to
operate his store until the conclu-
sion of his lease in 1926.
That he leased the building for
10 years on Oct. 1. 1916 and that he
Will undergo great financial loss If
forced to move into other quarters,
Is alleged by Moran in the petition.
When inspected by a deputy fire
marshall shortly after the blaze. the
building was condemned as unsafe
and unfit for business purposes. In
com batting this decision, the Quail

Moran in seeking TO have the con-
domination OF the building set aside.
and filed a petition for an injunction
towards this end.
Razing OF the structure was start

rapidly going down. Unsuccessful
in forcing the state fire marshall to

TRUCK. WAREHOUSE
MEN LAUNCH PLANS
FOR ORGANIZATION
Local Men Hold Meeting to
Consider Means of Improv-
ing Transportation.

Preparatory to forming a COM
posite Organization of shippers,
motor truck operators and ware
house men TO cooperate in the motor
truck short haul field. Thomas
Snyder, Of Indianapolis. state secre-
tary Of the Indiana Transfer and
Warehouse Shippers association.
met with warehouse men at the
Chamber of Commerce last night.
A plan whereby warehouses will
serve as terminals for the motor
trucks, thus eliminating the double
handling otherwise occasioned. and
thus bringing the Snort haul to a
serviceable basis, is now in forma-
ton. Mr.. Snyder pointed out that
traction and railroads are finding
that the short haul of so miles or
more covers only the terminal cost,
whereas the short haul of SO miles
is the economical point for the
motor trucks.
Drastic legislation against the
motor truck is expected at the COM
ing session of the legislature. Mr..
Snyder pointed out. The motor
truck men do not oppose construc-
tive legislation, he said. but do OPP
pose any laws based on an imprac-
ticable taxation program.
In the first place, he said, motor
trucks hope TO be placed under the
Jurisdiction OF the public service
commission as a public carrier, both
the bus and express motors, just as
steam and traction lines now are.
In the matter OF taxation he said,
the motor transport operators be-
lieve that the commercial vehicle
tax should be applied not only to
the state road maintenance fund
but some OF II should operate to
the benefit of the small towns and
in any cities where no allowance is
made for depreciation and wear and
tear to pavements. Cities and towns
exact no benefit from this mainten-
ance fund, he said. which causes
streets TO become rutty except
when maintained at a considerable
extent TO the city corporations
Rutty streets exact a higher cost
OF transportation which is also re-
Elected in the cost TO the ultimate
consumer.
The warehouse men are also an
alvzing terminal conditions on all
carriers in South Bend. Whereas
railroads have increased the track
age. power Of engines, weight OF
rails and durability Of road beds
they have not increased terminal "a
ciHties. This question alone causes
much Of the congestion. Car short
ace is often due TO car wastage, ne
added. because OF lack OF sunlcleh'
terminal facilities.
