AS it happens, it has taken wom-
an to reveal that the glamor maid
ems have been handed one of the
shabbiest tricks that the modern
business woman has suffered.
There may be quite as much
glitter in your own life, if you will
do a little polishing, as there is in
the lives Of the toe dancer or other
whoopee girls.
The creatures you envied for so
long do not have caviar for din
ner and pate de fois gras for
lunch. More than likely they don't
know how to spell them.
NOBODY drinks champagne
IN toasts in their fragile slippers
Fragile, they are, it is true. But il
is because they are using blotting
paper for soles as they travel from
agency to agency looking for jobs
as they must do large percentage
of the time.
1t is only once in a blue moon
and moons are never, never blue

dations. The girls may be willing
to pay interest and ask no divi-
dends. but there are few bidders.

formed the operation-and the child today is
well again
Now this Of course, is an extreme illustra-
ton. Few Of us are in a position where it is
possible for us to build life of service directly
on our bitterest loss. Yet there usually can be
some sort Of parallel for us.
We can at the very least draw sympathy
and knowledge of life from our tragedies
We can build those qualities into our per-
sonalities, and we can be wiser and drawer
and kinder as a result
And, sooner or later, those qualities will
enable us to make the world little bit better
for the people about us

NAZI STERILIZATION

HITLER'S Nazis who stress the need for a
virile and healthy body of citizens in
Germany, seem at least to have the courage
of their convictions.
1t is announced in Berlin that more than
100000 German men and women presently
will be subjected to sterilization under the
Nazi law for the prevention of diseased pro-
geny.
Here is action of a kind which eugenists
and other scientifically minded folk frequently
have urged, but which is so drastic and which
involves so many factors about which our
knowledge is not yet complete that most ma
tons have Shrunk from it,
But not the Nazis. They are determined to
establish sound and active race in Germany;
therefore, no one who has physical or mental
defects which he might transmit to his de-
scendants will be permitted to have children
The law is severe and infexible-but it is
at least logical and courageous.

CONGRATULATIONS. MR.. HULL

A LONG with most other observers we
doubted that the Latin-American con-
ferences at Montevideo would amount to much
We were wrong.
1t has improved Latin-Amercan relations
at a time when that is especially needed. Not
that the conference, which closed yesterday
has a long string Of concrete achievements to
Its credit-accomplishmen of that kind was
impossible with Latin-American economic
problems interviewer with world problems and
with Europe and Asia unripe for agreement
But in the matter of good will and increased
United States prestige, the conference pro-
duced results. And those intangible things
are exceedingly important in foreign relations.
Compare Montevideo with the last Latin
American conference at Havana In 1923
there was wide hatred and fear of our inter-
vention policy That hostility was no less a
month ago because of our continued inter
vention in Haiti and our alleged interference
in the current Cuban confusion. And yet the
obvious sincerity of State Secretary Cordell
Hull in assuring this conference Of our govern
ments intention to END with all possible
speed the engagements" of the United States
in Cuba and Haiti was accepted in good faith
by the other governments.
There were other gains, including the
treaty guaranteeing equal nationality rights
to women and the improvement in United
States-Argentinian relations.
The lower tariff resolution was a WE'LL
meant gesture, but rather meaningless, since
Europe is not ready for tariff reductions. The
resolution also conflicts with President Roose-
vet's present disposition to go it alone. Unless
the paradox of this Roosevelt policy is ex-
planned failure to act on a lower tariff
program may be interpreted in Latin-America
as hypocrisy and thus revive hostility.
Likewise senate failure to ratify Argentinas
anti-war pact, which combines and rounds out
the Pan-American peace machinery, could de-
stroy much of the good impression made by
our delegation at Montevideo.
But in any event the nation is indebted to
Secretary Hull and his associates for over
coming many difficulties and giving effective
service.

Meat packers report heavy years
profit" More luck to them. Let's
hope that it will be a regular thing
for all industries to report profits.
To make this profit, the packers
spent millions for live stock and
millions more was paid for labor,
COAL supplies and other Sundry
items including taxes.
How much of this money was
spent in Indianapolis? Did the
operations of the plants that pro-
duced this profit help the labor of
Indianapolis or the Indiana farmer?
A packing house is an asset to
any city. Livestock is produced in
the middle west and west and con-
sumed in the east. The packer
brings the money from the east to
the city wherein he operates.

ago when a local packing house
liquidated it's business. For fifty
years it had been a civic asset to
this city Think of this-spending
millions of dollars each year at the
stockyards for livestock, millions for
labor and supplies. 1t functioned as
a real booster for the city. This
meat was sold in the eastern states
and the money brought back to In
dianapolis for livestock and labor
Wake up, Chamber of Commerce;
wake up, bankers. Let Indianapolis
wake up. More livestock at our yards
means more money to the city.
Livestock not shipped here goes to
Chicago, Cincinnati, Louisville and
other markets. The meat industry
always will be with us. Let's get
together and open this packing
house and put 400 men back to
work.

Oh man beyond the grave;
I saw you walking in the winters
cold light;
Your eyes we're wide and CLASSY
with despair,
Your mouth curved gently with
smile of grief
At the petty gains that light mems

No more for you to hope some little
task to do,
No burning passion yours when day
is done,
No cheer, no song or whistle lights
your steps
For you are dead.

What I and many others can't
understand is why do the Kentuck-
ians slam and run down the Hoosie1
state and still live here and still are
coming in by the hundreds each
year? It's too bad. Indianapolis
would never have been what it is
now if it had not been for the Ken
tuckians.
The ignorant Kentuckians work
for 10 cents and 25 cents a day
and then think they are rich. They
put on white shirt or a silk dress
and think they are kings and
queens. Well, just put gold col

In answer to a taxpayers letter in
the Message Center 1 would like to
inform him that about eight weeks
ago a street inspector and myself
made a tour of the Tenth ward and
inspected all the unimproved streets
for. the purpose of having any work
done by this civil works program
that may be needed in that local
ity.
I would advise Mr.. Taxpayer to
make tour of the same district
and he will find that the I'M
improved streets of that district and
for the last two years have been
in better condition than they have
since the streets have been put
through. In reference to State ave-
hue of which he speaks, that is one
of the projects we had up before
the board of public works. In this
civil work the government will not
allow any material to be used for
that purpose. The board of works
is now and has been for the past
three years very favorable to having
State avenue extended to the city
limit but the taxpayers of that 10
cality can not afford to have the
street run through where any ma
terial would be necessary to project.
This project has been favorably
passed on by the board and State
avenue will be made passable at
least as far as Wade street.

We have in washington county
thirteen townships. In each town
ship there is trustee who pays out
poor relief money. Trustees hire

About all the trustees seem to
want to do is add on some more
taxes with the excuse they need
the money to pay mandatory prices
to school teachers and for other eX-
penses too numerous to mention.
Now suppose you and I look into
this from a business standpoint.

A well-planned city and national
government under civil management
is all that is needed with peaceful
acting citizens and well meant man
ayers. 1t is far wiser for home COM
munity needs to operate under re-
spectacle management. Whenever
there is private ownership Of any
utility project, and the product be-
ing consumed by some residents the
rates are scheduled for the benefit
of the owner. Let the dividends be
divided among the home user
consumers, and knock out any pri-
vate ownership.
If the banks Of Canada are run on
a surer reserve basis, we'd better

you your say q

county commissioners may cost
around 81 500 a year, but we ought
to have him to keep the county
commissioners accounts and let out
all contracts for teaching and haul
ing children to the lowest respon-
sible bidder.
The commissioners can do the
whole job with the help of their as
sistant. 1t takes too much cash
now to oil the joints of our rusty
trustee machine for handling hard
earned tax money, between the peo-
pie who pay the tax and the parties
who get the final pay.
Where is the wasted money 60
ing?
The lowest priced trustee I know
of gets $500 year for his serv-
ices. Multiplying that 400 by the
thirteen trustees makes SIS 200 for
trustees alone and that amount
would go long way to paying our
county commissioners and one as
sistant, with no trustees raising our
taxes
Will we continue to have our
pockets tapped for excessive tax
money, when our county business
if done on business lines. would cost
much less?
I have talked about this with
county commissioner He said with
a commissioner assistant we can
save considerable tax money.
1t now is time for all taxpayers to
wake up and assist the Taxpayers
Association in every way necessary
to bring about better business man
agement in our state, county and
township affairs.
The present depression never will
end as long as taxes are so high
people can not afford to improve
property after paying taxes.
The fact remains that as long as
the farmer and other property
owners see all their earnings above
a scanty living go for taxes they
can not and will not improve their
properties.
We are not hurt by overproduc-
ton, but by high taxation.

Repairs.

THE old tradition of the stage
l. that "the show must go on"
nearly was broken Tuesday aft
ernoon during the daily vaudeville

ingly, CARRIED.

the male half of the team was

hands, a tiny strap, holding a

OPPORTUNITY snapped.
The gyration was stopped as
rapidly as possible and repairs
made, while the audience, after
one embarrassed look, glanced at
the their feet or at their pro-
grams.
Then, following tradition, the
show went on.

Failure of an engineer 10 see dan

officials today for the wreck of the
crack Atlantic Express. the Erie
railroads fast Chicago-New York
train, which killed fourteen passen-
gers and injured twenty-five.
An eight-car milk train plcwed
into the rear end of the passenger
train. which had stopped on the
main Erie track within the Bling
hamton city limits at $50 Tuesday
night in response to an automatic
block signal. The heavy locomotive
plunged eight feet into the steel OBJ
Servation coach.
The next coach. a steel Pullman.
was telescoped into a wooden day
coach directly ahead of it. Almost
all the dead and the injured were
in the wooden coach.
The signal that stopped the pas
senger train automatically set a
caution signal at the block behind
where the passenger train had
stopped. and this should have halted
the oncoming milk train. Flagman

Concentration of u. S.

INTERVENTION is DENIED
Last Thing in His Mind, Is
Word of Roosevelt to
QueStionerS.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today ordered marine
concentrations and warship move
mentS looking toward possible armed
landing in Cuba, but simultaneously
revealed to queStiOners at the White
House that intervention was the last
thing in his mind.
Mr.. Roosevelt announced that
four more destroyers had been
ordered to proceed within steaming
distance of Cuba, to augment the
light cruiser and three destroyers
ordered there Tuesday.
Navy department officials revealed
that the battleship Mississippi at sea
had been diverted toward Havana.
They said the 10,000-ton cruiser In
dianapolis was expected to be
ordered toward Cuba today or to-
night.
Secretary Swanson announced
that he would sail at p. m. today
for Havana aboard the cruiser In
dianapolis
Marines Are Modified

was being modified at Quantico
(Va0 marine base.

taneously were invited to the state
department individually to be in
formed of Cuban events and Amer
lean steps to meet any situation
which may develop
Mr.. Roosevelt received the press
at 1920 a. M, just before comforting
with Secretary of Navy Swanson and
Admiral William H. STANDBY, chief
of naval operations. The President
told questioners that no Intervention
was contemplated-tha it was the
last thing in his mind.
Objects to Interpretation
There was no interruption, how
ever. in preparation to meet such
situations as may develop. Mr..
Roosevelt's words were not inter-
preted as meaning that interven-
ton would be beyond the scope of
American policy, under certain cir
cumStanceS.
The President objected to dis
patches indicating that his policy in
Cuba would be considered the key
note of Americas entire Latin
American policy.
He pointed out that the United
States had treaty obligations in the
island which did not apply to other
parts of America.
