FORT MAY Get

100000 for Harrison to
Be Included in Bill.

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-An
item of at least 100000 will be in
cluded for construction of barracks
at Fl Benjamin Harrison in the
army housing authorization bill soon
to be introduced in Congress, &C
cording to Representative James of
Michigan, chairman of the ap-
preparations subcommittee on
military affairs.
James, who toured the United
States and Hawaii inspecting army
housing last summer, expects to ask
bill which will authorize use of at
least $11,000,00O.
Once this bill is passed, the In
diana Senator'S and Congressman
should be able to get quick action
on actual appropriation Of the
money, he said.
The 100000 will be sufficient to

He put so much zeSt, power and
throbbing beauty into this number
that the audience gave him such a
storm of applause that Michael
Feveisky, conductor, signaled for the
orchestra to repeat the number.
And its repetition resulted in RoSSi
bringing back the same beauty and
power that he did on first singing
the number. This is the first time
that a singer this week has been
forced to repeat a number. This one
number was the high light of the
work of Rossi in this opera.
The other big ovation came to
Luis Ibarguan as Don Jose, brig
adler, in the second act when he
sang of his love to Carmen. Ibar-
guam made tremendous impression
Tuesday night in "Cavalleria" and
much was expected last night. He
seems to get deep into the heart of
the characters he sings. In other
words he can act with fine nervous
energy, always keeping the purity of
voice.
When I consider the Carmen of
Eunice Harper the problem before
me is a serious one. I have seen
many Carmens and it seems to me
that there are as many different
Carmens as there are brands Of sar-
dimes.
The Carmen of Miss Harper
lacked many, many things from the
acting standpoint. Up until the last
act, she failed to dress Carmen as
she should be dressed. Carmen, to
me, is not a cabaret entertainer. She
is a wild cat, a working girl in
ciceret f"ctorv. She fights women
and she taunts any man of her
fancy. She is a Spanish gold dig
ger in her own way and she never

start construction Of the most sore
ly needed barracks, James said.
Senator Robinson Of Indiana
asked for $7l5,OOO, but James said
he does not believe an item Of that
size could be pushed through Con-
gress in view of the bad housing
conditions virtually everywhere.
The permanent program, he said,
embraces barracks for 814 men,
homes for twenty-one officers, six
teen noncommissioned officers, a
forty-seven-bed post hospital, and
dormitory for eight nurses.

He speaks his role in words that are

This lends spiritual atmosphere to
the presentation.

He points out that there are oc-
casional cases in the early stages
of pulmonary tuberculosis when the
fever, the distress of the body and
the consciousness of the disease
make life appear drab, and that
the judicious administering of alco-
hol in small amounts seems to alter
the outlook on life and to make
endurable the rigors of the neces-
sary treatment.
The patient with chronic heart
disease, the person who is passing
into senility with its inevitable dis
comforts is also benefited by small
doses of alcohol, since it apparently
enables him to eat more and to
sleep better. as we'll as to give him
freedom from body miseries.
In his conclusion DR.. Lee says
that the benefit of alcohol is proba-
bly, never directly life saving, that
it should not be employed as a rou-
tine treatment and should be used
only in individual cases in which
the indications for its use are. clear.

MANAGER PLAN
MEETS MODERN
CITY PROBLEMS
Old Federal Form Designed
for Other Days, Says
Speaker.

The city manager form of gov
eminent, advocated here, is de-
signed to meet the modern complex
problems of city administration, de-
clared Winfield Miller before the
Indianapolis Board of Trade an
nual meeting Thursday night.
Miller pointed out that the old
Federal for mwas designed when 80
per cent of the population lived in
rural districts and city problems
were less complex.
The vast amount of money need
ed for the growing demands of the
city should be expended according
to the best business methods and not
be made the prize of factional and
partisan politics" said Miller.
Samuel Ashby, former corporation
counsel, spoke against the manager
form to be voted on June 81.
IAN important provision of the
manager form is the protection it
throws around city employees. The
spirit of the law is to preserve con-
tinuity of service in order that the
greatest possible efficiency might
result" said John F. White, Fedora
ton of Civic Clubs president, before
the E. Sixteenth st. Civic Club,
Thursday night.

The President seemed most proud

The title colonel did nto seem pre-

Sims path of glory is four miles;
flags are draped and lined with
throngs in numbers which never be-
fore have poured into Pennsylvania
Ave. to see new hero.
On Sunday the preachers will
talk about Slim in their pulpits.
They see Slim as a great moral
lesson for young and old. Slim,
they say, eXemplifies the beauty OF
character that is more needed in the
world than success
ExempIar for Statesmen
In this capital where success is
the most honored of the gods, Slim
is to be set up as the moral eX-
enaplar worthy of the emulation
even of statesmen.
Three weeks ago Slim flew away
out of obscurity and today he re-
turns to such fame as never has
been seen save by few men of
older years and certainly never by
any youth.
The hotels are all filled, for from
Ear and near people have come to
look at the superb boy. They have
gone to no small expense for a
glimpse Of Slim.
