''OTHER W | M [ N'S CLOTHES"- "-ALCAzAR
Wonderful Display of Gowns in Picture Showing at AL
 cazar Today

You've never wanted thing until 1t almost haunted you. You've bought 1t long before that" indig- nantly says .Jacqueline Lee to Bar ker Garrison in . dramatic episode in "Other women's Clothes" the Hugo -Hodkinson production. which comes to the Alcazar theatre today.
 In that ono sentence is revea.ed one of the biggest problems that confronts many a young working girl of today: how to make her in- adequate salary cover the actual ne- cessities of life--not to mention the minor luxuries and comforts of ex- istence.
 Barker Garrison Is young mill Iionaire; Jacqueline Lee, little modistes model. He has far too much money; she. far too little. An exchange of money is effected, so that Jacquellne Is permitted to step into "other women's clothes" ai- though, of course, for the time be- ing, the girl Is entirely innocent of the source of her unexpected wealth The development of the story from this point on makes "Other Womens Clothes" one of the decidedly novel photoplays of the screen year.
 Staged under the artistic direction of Hugo Ballin (the producer of East Lynne" and "Jane EyreD, "other women's Clothes" with Its scenes of fashionable New York and Paris life and its correspondins glimpses of the life of the poor in a big city. It's capable cast, headed by Mabel Ballin. and its unusual story is sure to make a very powerful ap- peal to audiences of the Alcazsr theatre.

FIRE LOSSES DECREAsE

Selma, August 2.-(SpeclaI. )-FTre losses in Selma showed marked de- crease for the month of July, the total loss. according to a statement issued by Fire Chief J. W. Blakely, amounting to only sS1. This Is ex- ceedingly small when the amount Of property involved in 12 calls was appraised at $14,500. Efficient work on the part of the fire department was responsible in a great measure for the low amount of damage sus- tained by property holders. The re- port of MT. Blakely is interesting in another respect In that out of the $14.500 worth of property involved. more than half. or s7,625 was unin- sured. The amount that was in- sured was placed at s6.S75.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Before the

ton OF the 81, 900 900, 900 Indebtedness
Of foreign countries, It was declared in

not take part in a world economic con-
ference until officials here were fully ac-
quainted with the subjects to be dis
cussed.
Diplomats of severaA Of the principal
European governments already have ap-
preached representatives Of this Govern
ment. strongly urging participation in a
conference which several of the foreign
governments are willing to gall once they
are assured the United StNes viii take
part in its deliberations.
The United States, however, is hold
ing of from any commitment on such
a plan until there has been a complete
agreement as to the agenda of such a
conference. The disposition Of the Ad-
ministration is not to rush into an
economic or financial parley~ until the

This decision, however, may be modi-
fled b. some definite understanding that

IN a financial meeting. would not be

visibility Of wiping the slate clean OF

Relocation and Advisory Com
missions Meet With
Governor.

Members Of the reformatory relocation
and the advisory commissions met with
Governor Warren T. McCray today to
eliminate sites which were proposed to
the commission for the reformatory, now
at Jeffersonville.
1t was believed more than 100 OF the
165 sizes which were proposed to the com
mission. would be eliminated. some be-
cause OF their location, and other he
cause of the amount Of ground in the
site submitted to the commission
Sites which are not located in the CEN
trdI part of the State will be eliminated,
the Governor said, because Il is believed a
suitable site can be found within radius
Of fifty miles oS indianapolis.
Mike Foley. secretary Of the reloca-
tion commission, said some sites would
he eliminated because Of the extremely
high prices sought for the ground. Al
though the commission has a right to
condemn the property for which an ex-
orbitant price is asked. It is not believed
the commission will inspect these places,
BECAUSE so many others have been sub
ufftted.
Among the rules, which viii govern
the commission IN eliminating the pro-
posed sites, are the following:
1. What is the9 nearest water sup
ply? How much water can be OBJ
tanned from this source each day?
? How many acres in the proposed
site? How much is 1t worth an acre?
3. Where is the site offered located.
T. What means are there for trans
porting prisoners to the institution
What is the nearest steam line, cleo
cric line, highway?
After the sites, which ars possible
for the relocation Of the institution re-
main, the committee will meet with the
Governor, to formulate some plan to in

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Airplane

conference to the five leading naval
powers are vastly more formidable
engines of war than the mighuest
battleships ever conceived, according
to Rear Admiral William S. Sims.
The views of Americas most dis

York, ranking member of the House
Committee on Naval Affairs.
IN reply TO a request for an expression
on the value Of the airplane as q naval
weapon, Admiral Sims supplied Repre-

that seem destined to stir conference

Admiral Sims asserts that airplanes car

JURISDICTION
OF i. S. COURT
Is QUESTIONED
Arguments in Injunction Case
Heard by Judge, Ander-
son.

Arguments concerning the Jurisdiction
Of the local Federal Court over de-
PENDANTS living in States other than In
diana took up the greater part of the
afternoon in the hearing before Judge
Albert B. Anderson on the recasting of
the injunction granted the Borderland
Coal Company two months ago against
officials of the United Mine Workers of
America and a number OF Indiana coal
operators, in connection with attempts
to unionlze the West Virginia coal fields.
The Circuit Court OF Appeals directed
the injunction be recast so as to per
nit the continuance Of the "check off"
system, which Judge Anderson had en-
Joined Attorneys for the plaintiffs at
the morning session Of court presented
q petition which they had drawn to con-
form with the directions of the higher
court and Judge Anderson then declared
adjournment to give the defense time to
look over the order,
A motion also was made by attorneys
for the plaintiffs to include as defend
ants all officials of the union against
whom the case had been dismissed at
the hearing in November because Of non
residence in Indiana. The motion was
based on the theory that the Clayton
law, under which this action il brought,
gives the plaintiffs all the rights
possessed by the Government under the
Sherman antitrust law. One of these
rights is that of bringing into court
residents of States other than the one
in which the action IS brought.
The Circuit Court OF Appeals in its de-
cision. given by Judge Francis e. Baker,
held there was no question that con-
spiracy existed to commit Illegal acts in
West Virginia held by Judge Anderson,
but it ruled he had gone too far in en-
joining the CHECK off" Therefore the in
junction was sent back for recasting.
