early today blew the safe of the
Nome state bank and escaped with
$4,000 in cash after firing several
shots at persons aroused by the ex.

Damages to the bank building were
estimated at $1,000. Furniture, win

explosion.
One of the robbers apparently en-
tered through side window between
2 and 3 a. m. and opened the doors
for his companions and an acetylene
torch was used to cut through the
old square safe. One safety deposit
box was opened but none of the pa

that was taken.
When the explosion crashed, Ar

and came to the door. The robbers
fired a revolver shot that missed
its mark. Bake returned the fire
with shotgun and the two retired

No hay duda de que Francia es

Sin embargo, debemos reconocer

Ia cabeza del diario que detenta la

"Paris ha aparecido hoy cubier-

chopathic ward at city hospital
another joint enterprise. The city
was to provide the ward and the
county the upkeep. The county
council only appropriated $1,000
for this purpose in 1926 to be used
for patients from outside the city
limits. And that fat is in the fire.
From the way they work to-
gether and the harmony they dis
play one would think city and
and county officials were France
and Germany discussing repara-
lions. The city Of Indianapolis
and Marion County apparently
have nothing in common.
Whereas, they are very much off
the same piece. indianapolis con-
tains six-sevenths Of the taxable
values of Marion County and a
greater fraction of the county's
population.
The wrangles between city and
county officials over joint adven-
lures are mostly useless gesticula-
tons. In the final analysis the
Indianapolis taxpayer defrays
practically the entire expense Of
such joint enterprises. 1t really
makes little difference to him
whether he pays out of the left
hand pocket or the right.

Comfort
By Hal Cochran

When the sun is disappearing. and
the evenings setting in, and it's
chilly winds you're hearing. with
their whistle and their din, you re-
greet that summers leavin'. You re-
greet that winters nigh. It's the cold
that sets you grievin' Ger what's
comm by and by.
Since it's much to cold for swim
min, and the picnic days have
passed, and the trees are due a trim
min of the green that cannot last
you can see the change a comm
through the clearness Of the sky. To
the south the birds are hummin'
cause the snow is gonna fly.
Light the oven in the kitchen, let
the parlor fireplace glow. DO your
readin'; do your stitchin'. for your
gadding spirits low. When it's only
chill that greets you each and every
time you roam, let your own good
judgment treat you to better time
at home.
Comfort comes to those who make
it. It's an easy thing to get. All
you've got to do is take, as the
chance is daily met. Let the freez.
ing winds come blowing. What's the
difference if they do? You won't
mind it if you're showing common
sense. It's up to you.

Spare Us This
Spectacle

r@HE Federal Council Of Churches, in con-
/ Guiding it's report on the enforcement
and nonenforcement-of prohibition, recon-
mends that the churches resume the teach
ing of temperance 1t finds the churches have
been remiss in that respect since the Constltu-
ton was amended to establish temperance by
law
Perhaps this suggestion, if carried out
may help to get the horse around in front of
the cart again. But let us hope that certain
phases of past temperance campaigns Will not
be witnessed. We are prepared to see white
ribbons appear again and to respect their
wearers We are prepared to listen to ''Where
Is Ny Wandering Boy Tonight and to admire
the miss or matron who declalms that Lips
That Touch Liquor Shall Never Touch
Mine" We are ready to gaze shudderingly
on terrible charts illustrating what alcohol
does to our interiors. We will stare with
reverent awe once more at the reformed old
soak when he is restored to the platform to
serve as a horrible example
We are ready to have "Ten Nights in a
Barroom" supplant Able S Irish Rose" as the
great American drama.
Seriously, these things are all right IN
their way. We honestly believe they resulted
in making more convinced teetotalers than the
Eighteenth amendment.
What we object to is thing that might
be called the commercialization of temper
ance. We object to wealthy manufacturers
and other big employers substituting sensa-
tional evangelists to win their employees over
to temperance, while willing themselves to
keep little stock of spirits in their cellars
This has been done in the taat Rx employers

DAM JUST TO DESTROY 1T

has been as spectacular as that pro-
posed with the arch dam.
RI SPECIAL committee Of the
TAI Engineering Foundation, a
national organization with
headquarters at New York, is to be
in charge of the work. Leading
engineers Of America and Europe as
well as government engineers from
the u. S. Bureau of Reclamation.
the States of California and Oregon
and the cities of San Francisco and
Los Angeles will cooperate in the
work.
The dam is to be built on Steven
son Creek, a tributary of the San
Joaquin River, about sixty miles
east Of Fresno.
The dam is to be built upon a
foundation of solid rock. 1t will be
seven feet thick at the base and two
feet thick at the top.
The dam will first be built to
height Of sixty feet.
II" ESTS will then be carried on
for a year. Delicate measur-
IL ing instruments. fully tested
for accuracy at the L. S. Bureau
Of Standards. will be used 10 deter.
mine the stresses and strains in the
dam and any movements Of the dam
under such strain.
Many OF these measuring instru-
ments are being specially designed
for the work.
At the end OF the year. the height
Of the dam will be increasing by
steps until the 100-foot height is
finally reached.
The place where the dam is being
built Is a rugged rocky gorge. This
location was picked so that a sud.
den breaking Of the dam during the
tests would do no damage to in
habited or cultivated territory.

PURPOSE OF A
PLAN COM MISSION

7HARLES S. WARD erected
ii a 24-foot house on a 30
III foot lot at 1435 Lawton St.,
contrary to solemn edict of the
city plan commission. Now that
august body won't grant him per-
mission to complete the dwelling
by putting a roof on it.
OF course he violated the build
ing code and probably the plan
commission is justified in it's at
titude. Official bodies don't like to
have their orders ignored; it raises
their blood pressure and makes
them tingle all over with outraged
dignity.
But a couple of months ago
the builders Of a $4,000 hotel
project at Fall Creek Blvd. and
N. Meridian ST., extended the foun-
dalton of their edifice many feet
over the line allowed by the build.
ing restrictions in that section.
That also f1outed the edicts of the
plan body.
Nevertheless the hotel builders
weren't punished. After momen-
tary indignation, the plan commits
sion cooled off and graciously per-
mitted the construction work on
the hotel to proceed. They all but
apologized for hating the work.
Probably their action was justi-
fed. The magnitude of the hotel
project and it's Importance as a
civic improvement compensate for
its encroachment on the building
line. On the other hand completion
Of 24-foot house on a 30-foot lot
doubtless irreparably mars the
city's beauty. And should be
sternly dealt with.
The purpose Of the plan commits
sion is to formulate rules for the
orderly development of Indian.
apolis. so that utility and beauty
will go hand in hand. To achieve
results its rules must be enforced
impartially.
When 1t permits violation of its
regulations by million-dollar prof.
ects, but falls like ton of brick
on a humble home builder. It
doesn't achieve its purpose. It only
makes Itself ridiculous.

DEMPSEY AND
WILLS FIGHT

Gar. JACK DEMPSEY. the
IMl puissant and chivalrous
G5 knight with the reclaimed
Grecian profile. and Mr.. Harry
Wills. the brunei panther. have
signed an agreement for a ten
round fight at Michigan City, Ind.
They will battle for honors and
million dollars.
Now that this momentous de-
cision is reached on the greatest
public question of the day, what
matters the settlement Of the
French debt, the outcome of the
aircraft investigation or such in
significant public matters?
The contracting parties, how
ever, admirably restrain their bel
licose instincts. The scheduled
battle won't take place until next
summer-if at all.
Indiana law is finicky on the
subject of prize fights-although
it permits boxing. Could a knock
acknowledgement affair, in which
Mr.. Wills seeks to push the classi-
cal nose of Mr.. Dempsey around
behind his left ear and the latter
gentleman attempts to bleach the
brunei Mr.. Wills with one blow, be
called a boxing exhibition?
Boxing is a manly sport. Even
the rawer. ruder prize fighting has
much to commend it as a spectacle
1t is not much more brutal and
dangerous than beating a rug.
But the projected Michigan City
bout will be neither a sport nor a
a spectacle; it will be a highly
successful exhibition of gold dig
ging.
For a possible half-hour's muscu-
lar exertion an exriveter and ex-
roustabout-with scarcely a brain
cell between them-will receive
more money than the president Of
the United States earns in a dozen
years.
OF course for the advancement
Of civilization and the moral vel
fare of the world the battle be-
tween Mr.. Dempsey and Mr.. Wills
is as important as the battle Of
Waterloo, the Marine, Verdun or
Chateau Thierry. The bout must
take place. But why pick on In
diana for the battle-ground? This
State can win more permanent
fame at less cost.
