HEALTH BOARD
MAY FIND JOBS
FOR HUNDREDS
Ogden Ruling Gives Power
to Override Decisions of
City Heads.
WORK CAN BE ORDERED
Broad Ripple Project May
Be Started Soon Under
Latest Decision.
WORK CAN BE ORDERED
BY DANIEL NJ. KIDNEY

Orders of the state board of
health may be used to provide pub
lie pay rolls for the unemployed in
indianapolis by forcing sanitary dis
trict construction amounting to
more than 100000 and employing
several hundred common laborers.
This possibility loomed today as
the result of an opinion on the state
health boards power given DR.. Will
liam F. King, secretary, by At
torney General James M. Ogden.
In the opinion, Ogden set out that
the state board of health has the
power to order sanitary improve
ments in indianapolis, regardless
of any opposite stand that may be
taken by the city sanitary commits
sioners or the indianapolis board
of health.
Power Was Questioned
King explained that power of his
board in these matters has been
questioned by city officials for some
time, and he wanted to get it
straight before he issued any Or
derS.
Among the orders that would Of
fer a public works program for the
city would be an order to carry out
the long pending Broad Ripple in
terceptor sewer project and compile
ton of the sewage disposal plant,
King declared.
Here are two projects that could
be done at less expense than at
any time in the long history of
planning for them" he asserted
with a little thought and fore
sight the Broad Ripple sewer con-
struction could be no end of benefit
to the unemployed. Much of the
work could be done by hands and,
while this may be somewhat more
expensive than the use of all the
type of machinery, it would mean
taking people off charity lists and
rebuilding their self respect through
work.

sound investments.
Project Badly Needed
mot a cent need be expended for
them from current tax levies. The
work can be carried on by bond
issue, and bonds can be sold at a
premium now and carry the lowest
rate of interest in the history of this
community.
mot cent will need be expended
from tax levies for at least two
years, and then we certainly should
be able to meet such interest pay
mentS as are necessary.
IF we are not out of the depres-
sion two years from now, we never
will be-"
King also asserted that the sew
age disposal plant completion is
needed badly and not a wheel has
turned there in this matter for more
than four years, although plans
long have been awaiting action.
This project also can be financed
by bond issue and will aid greatly
the local public works program, he
asserted.

PLAYS NO FAVORITES
High and Low They Must Pay Up,

From all appearances, the traffic
department is enforcing the order
that there are no favorites when it
comes to impounding of cars parked
improperly.
Late Monday night a motorist as
serted to police he parked his car
properly on Capitol avenue near the
statehouse. He stressed the point
that he had noted his car did not
extend into a nearby no-parking
space.
He learned his car was impounded
when he returned for it.
But, despite his protestations, he
paid the traffic department So.
He was Municipal Judge Thomas
E. Garvin.

CHAPTER FoRTY-THREE

A FTER the first moment Of sur
IA prise, in which he had re-
sponded to her kiss as Of old, Dirk
drew away and regarded her stead

blood mount holly to Mary's cheeks.
What are you doing here?" he
asked roughly. What do you

surliness was in his voice. ut seems

Dirk, pleased" she threw out her
hands to ward off the unkindness.

Il don't think of you at all"
That's a liel" she flared at him.
You we're thinking of me as
came in"
"All right. Shall I tell you what
I thought of you?"
mo, for it's all too plain!" She
bit her lip and tried to get her
anger under control. After all, he
was i'll and he needed rest and
quiet.
I'm going to sit here until you
go to Sleep" she told him firmly,
and sat down with a magazine in
chair nearby. Minutes licked away
in silence.
Dirk had turned his face to the
wall, after bidding her do as she
pleased. She stole glances at his
averted face as he slept, or pre-
tended to sleep.
He looked so i'll that suddenly
she was frightened. Was a sprained
ankle as serious as all that?
In a remarkably short time he was
really asleep. She rose and was
about to tiptoe from the room,
when voice in the next stateroom
attracted her attention.
What stateroom had she put The
Fly in the night before, she Won

been, for it was his voice she heard.

ing. Il want it, that's all" There
was mumbled response, and then
his voice loudly again-he must be
standing very near the open port

What do you mean you haven't
it?" he half-shouted.
Louise, in a strident undertone,
countered with a question of her
own.
Say, whose bracelet is that, any,
way? Why is it so important? And
how did you come by it, may I
ask?"
do you think I'd be fool enough
to tell you? Give it to mel"
"And what if I tell you I haven't
got it? I can't get it, either. She's
got It'll"
What" It was like the roar of
charging bull.
After that there was the sound
of the portfolio being closed; eau
ton made them lower their voices
until Mary had to strain to hear
them.
She could not catch what they
said. Evidently they believed the
Stateroom next them TO be empty.

CHAPTER FORTY-TWO
(Continued)


She felt as though she had
dropped a heavy burden from her
shoulder.
The sun was shining in her state
room portfolio when she awoke
Mary stretched, easing her cramped
muscles. She had been so exhaust
ed that she had slept without NOV
ing.
With the action, vitality rushed
back into her refreshed young body
and she bounded out of bed, push
ing her hair out OF her eyes.
She looked like a slim boy in her
rumpled silk pajamas as she ran to
the portfolio and peered out. Bates
mad vanished from his post long
since.
Far off on the horizon line was
something that might be either
clouds or land, but in between was
sea, a calm expanse with only here
and there a whitecap to break the
blue-green, mirror like surface.
There was an occasional roll of
the ship as it was caught by a half
sea, and a slight culver of the deck
as the powerful engines drove them
through the Atlantic at fifteen
knots
1t was such a glorious morning,
and she felt so invigorated by her
nights sleep that the events of the
night before retreated to the back
of her mind like bad dream.
Anything was possible-any nice
thing, that is-on a day like this.
Even Dirk might have relented and
forgiven her.
She hummed Happy Days" as
she splashed in the shower, then
gave herself drubbing with a
towel, filled the air with an ex-
travagant cloud of bath powder,
and set about dressing with light
heart.
She donned a plain white linen
frock, white shoes, a little blue coat
with brass buttons and blue
beret.
"And am I hungry" she ex-
claimed, as she strapped on her
wrist watch, noting with surprise
that it was almost II o'clock.
There was no one on deck, so she
went below to the dining salon.
Apparently she was not the only
late sleeper.
Sea air had played its tricks on
the rest, as well. She was hardly
prepared, though, for the scene that
met her eyes.
NE Iona sat stiffly in his chair,
IL at the foot of the table, stab
bling at his grapefruit with a vicious
spoon. At his left Louise sat list
lessly, looking, Mary thought, little
greenish about the mouth as though
something eaten the night before
and the roll of the boat were not
agreeing, quite.
Bruce, has face like a thunder
cloud, sat on Louise's right, and in
the masters chair at the head OF
the table Mr.. Jupiter applied him
self steadily and not too silently to
a generous plate of scrambled eggs
and bacon.
Hello, everybody" Mary called
out brightly, land a pleasant morn
ing!" Her good humor brought no
response.
De Iona and Bruce barely nodded
The countess did not even look up
Mary slipped into a seat at Mr.
Jupiter's left-the remaining chain
was Captain Hendricks, but the
doughty captain breakfasted at nc
such effete hour.
