Henry Duffy, ex.husband OF Ann
e. Nichols, has just come out or
the West--ineaning California
with the accomplishment of hav-
ing within the last few years
made almost as much money as
his former wife. Out on the
Coast he has come to be known
as the phenomenon OF stock COM
pany management, which &C.
counts for the fortune.
After having been along the
shores Of the Pacific little more
than O. year, he has acquired
string OF theaters and operated
number of stock companies that
have achieved great success-such
success, In fact, that he is now
building new theater and office
building in Seattle to cost
$1,1OO,O00. He bought the site
and financed the building opera
tions with the aid Of Seattle capt.
talists. And the playhouse will be
known as the Henry Duffy
Theater.
To have done all that In year,
from modest start, may sound a
little bit like an Hofatio Alger
story, or publicity from California.
But 1t Is all true, and more, and
Duffy will corroborate II If you

Protects Human Life
Protection to human life is most
important provision in the new code,
according to Hamilton, who said it
would assure that loss of life due
to fires and panic would be a mini
mum.
Hamilton said Legality of revised
code had been approved by COM
nlittee composed Of three attorneys.
Mayor Shank in 1922 appointed a
committee of fifteen architects and
buildings, headed by Hamilton, to
draft the ordinance. Their effort has

Washington Report Reveals
Decrease in Surplus
of Labor.

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, May 21.--Busi-
ness conditions improved noticeably
in Indiana during April, according
to the monthly report made today by
the Department Of Labor. With the
States steel industry running at
nearly 95 per cent capacity, other
lines of activity showed a healthy
undertone.
1.-THE surplus of labor which has
been so evident in Indiana during
the past few months is rapidly dis
appearing" the report says. How
ever. a large percentage OF coal min
ers still is either unemployed or
working only part time.
Increase I'm Capital
Building operations are In full
swing and peak employment is re-
ported in practically all construction
lines. Contractors are employing
many gangs on road construction.
Reliable farm hands are in demand.
"Some increase in employment is
noticeable I'm Indianapolis. A small
surplus of labor is reported in GER
tain manufacturing lines, particu'
larly metal and foundry shops.
Some plants are working with re-
duced forces and some operating
part time. Building construction
continues good.
Smaller Cities
Evansville reports a slight sur
plus of workers. Furniture plants
are operating about 20 per cent OF
capacity. Aside from stove foun
dries and furniture factories. other
manufacturing lines are gradually
increasing their forces.
"Terre Haute is still suffering
from the fact that coal mines are
operating only one or two days a
week. A fair amount of building
however, is affording employment.
