Smith Was
Handicapped


The result has not made
for orderly representative
government in practice. Thus
Alfred E. Smith, represent
ing the will of the great ma
jority of the people in the
gubernational office, con-
stantly had to encounter and
fight a minority in control of
a branch of the Legislature,
or of both branches. His
enormous popularity, the JUS
tice of his policies, his man
ner of meeting opposition
frequently forced the minor
ity to yield-or enough Of
the minority to pass the Ad-
ministration measures.
Franklin D. Roosevelt has
been handicapped in his
\work, for which he had a
mandate with a popular ma
iQrity of 100000 all through
his four-year tenure. And
NOW Herbert LIE hman, it
seems, must suffer from this
same anti-democratic, anti
American situation.

Preserves Food Perfectly
and Maintains Even
Temperature.

With the winter almost spent, the
question of the refrigeration to be
used in the home comes to the front
again.
One who does not examine care
fully into the merits of the Iciere
refrigerator advocated by the Polar
Ice q Fuel Company for its patrons
is failing to see the most advanced
form of household refrigeration in
the market, in the opinion of many
who have installed this remarkable
refrigerator.
A company of the standing of the
Polar Ice and Fuel Company would
not urge use of the Iciere unless
it had proved to be something SUI
perior, but how good it is only can
be understood after a careful eX-
animation, said Henry L. Dithmer,
Polar president.
This is the refrigerator that uses
cracked ice. Not only is cracked ice
more convenient for the housewife,
more sanitary in handling, and fully
as economical, but actually it gives
a more even temperature in the
refrigerator. This is because it is
the surface of the ice that absorbs
the heat.
A great block will chill a refrig-
orator thoroughly, but when this
block has melted to a small piece,
the temperature is likely to rise, for
not enough surface is presented to
overcome the heat.
Cracked ice, on the contrary, pre-
sents such big surface that five
pounds of ice in the Iciere will
maintain the intense cold.
There are many other features
of this refrigerator that commend
it highly. It's easy accessibility, the
fact that all the parts can be taken
out for cleaning; its great capacity
and its simplicity of operation all
have advantages.
But the one big thing about the
Iciere is that it preserves food per-
fectly, under ideal, moist condi-
tons that retain the natural crisp
ness and freshness, and that it does
this most economically.
The Polar Ice and Fuel Company
asks the public to inspect this
Iciere before deciding on a re-

Trend Toward Recreation
Resorts Observed in
Recent Years.

Modern hotels occupy a large
place in the community life. In
stead of being limited, as they may
have been at one time, to the en-
tertainment of the travelling pub
lie, they have become centers of
community activity and to a con-
siderable extent recreation resorts
for people who appreciate the ex-
clusiveness and the high quality of
entertainment available.
Hotel Antlers, Meridian and st.
Clair streets, is an example of the
modern trend in hotel activity. AS
one of the twenty-four hotels OPP
Grated by the Albert Pick Hotel
Company, it is kept in the forefront
of modern hotel development, Civ
ing it's wholehearted attention to the
job of making the people who seek
its hospitality comfortable and
pleased.
In this effort is is aided greatly
by an unusual and attractive phys
ical equipment. A pleasing lobby,
two f1ourS in height and decorated
in the best of style, welcomes the
visitor.
Around this lobby is mezzanine,
aflording writing and lounging
rooms of quiet comfort. A beautiful
ballroom rovideS facilities for as
semblies of any kind, while eight
bowling alleys and handsomely
tiled swimming pool give recreation
facilities.
This pool, generally used by resi-
dents of the city as well as guests
of the hotel, is under the care of
an experienced swimming master,
and men, women and children en-
joy its clear depth at all hours of
the day. Instruction is provided for
those who desire it.

Industries
Are Helped
by Center

indianapolis must grow largely by
manufacturing more goods. Almost
in the center Of the nations pop
ulation, with unexcelled shipping
facilities and favorable labor con-
ditions, the city seems destined %
make itself great manufacturing
center from force of circumstances.
But these circumstances can be
added, and the growth ripened into
a larger population and a richer
community, by sensible co-opera-
ton. That cooperation need not
take the form of pooling Of re-
sources. In fact, such a course
probably would prove big mis-
take.
But one Indianapolis concern has
solved the problem Of effective CO.
operation for more manufacturing
concerns. That is the Indianapolis
Industrial Center, Incorporated.
u Industries Housed
1t does this by providing for
housing of factories, and by the
very magnitude of its plans it can
bring more aid to manufacturers
than a dozen independent efforts
TO build factory structures could do.
The great plant at Nineteenth
street and Martindale avenue proves
that, for it houses twenty-seven in
dustrial concerns which enjoy SUI
perior advantages in many particu-
lars, not the least of which is in
prompt freight service.
Railroads can neglect one manu-
facturer in the press of some other
activity, but they can not neglect
a group such as this center affords.
Service Is Convenient
In fact. the center is not de-
pendent upon one means of trans
portation, for it has an electric
freight service as well, with
freight depot in the center of the
grounds. There is no waiting for
tomorrow's local at this place.
Hourly shipments are possible.
Nor need the manufacturer wor-
ry about the purely housing ques-
ton. Rental of one of the factory
locations provides modern buildings
adapted to the need, heat, light and
Waterman service, and the convent
ence of being surrounded by other
plants of like interests and mutual
helpfulness.
Directed by Chaille
Potentially and in actual service,
first to the manufacturers and Sec
ond to the community, the Indus
trial Center is a great idea, which,
under direction of Emerson w.
Chaille & Co., realtors and prop
erty managers, is providing ideal
conditions for the growth of In
dianapolis manufacturing
Emerson w. Chaille, one of the
leading real estate dealers of the
city for twenty-five years, with
offices at 1909 Fletcher Trust build
ing, is president of the company
operating the center. He and L.
j. McNaster, general manager of
the center, feel they are being Of
real service to the city when they
are able to locate factories in this
ideal location, adding more pay
rolls to the city's prosperity.

reasonable prices, wherein the food
is maintained at the same high
standard as the rest of the hotel.
Guest rooms, large and airy, are
completely furnished to the last
detail. Every room has a private
bath.
But it is not alone in this splen-
did physical equipment that the
Antlers has proved so attractive.
There is a spirit of hospitality and
cordiality about the place, the at
tainment of which in itself is no
small triumph.
This is due in no small measure
to the personality of Mr.. and Mrs.
R. I. Griffith. Griffith is manager
of the hotel and Mrs. Griffith con-
tributes no small part in its hos
pitality.

Hectic Chase Follows
With the siren of his motorcycle
screaming, Smith pursued the car
across Pennsylvania street, Wash

driven by White, missed another
automobile by inches.
White roared south on Carrollton

HUGE PROBLEM
FACES STREET
RAILWAY LINES
City Transportation Needs
Must Be Met Despite
Cut in Revenue.
BY J. ]. BEDLOW

If transportation is the very life
blood of commerce and industry, it
also is the vital essential OF the
men and women who engage in
business.
1t would be an utter ipnpossibility
to build such factories as Indian
apolis boasts if there were not ade-
quate means Of getting their goods
to the consumer in different parts
of the country.
1t always has been said Of this
city that it is great railroad CEN
ter, and that has been urged as
one of the main reasons why it is
a good place for industry.
Yet, after the industries located
here, if there were no means of
getting employees back and forth
from work, and they we're compelled
to locate under the shadow of the
factory smokestack, the advantages
of the industry would be counter
balanced by the wretchedness Of the
people.
Costs Are Increased
That is the Importance of the
place the street railway has in met
ropolitan life-a way Of making
available to the people of the city
better home surroundings, a higher
degree of citizenship, and fuller
lives.
Other means of transportation
have made the lot of the street car
manager a difficult one in recent
years. An absolute necessity to a
part of the population, the street
car has seen its patronage fall off
in favor of the automobile, and
there is an acute problem press
ing in practically every city in
America as to how adequate street
railway service is to be maintained
to answer the needs of the pub
lie in the face of greater costs and
dwindling revenues.
Patronage Necessary
1t is a problem that will have to
be faced and solved by the mu-
inequalities. There must be ade-
quate transportation, whether by
street car, bus or other methods,
and that transportation must be
supported by the patronage of the
public, or else come out Of the tax
payers pockets.
Obviously it is of more advantage
to let the users support the trans
portation systems. The least the
municipality should do is to make
the burdens of the street car sys-
TEN as light as is fair to all con-
cerned and extend, so far as is
consistent with right principles, a
helping hand to the poor mans only
means of transportation.
