8 GO OVER HEAD OF T.S. MEEKER IN OVERTURES Democratic Leaders Take Up Seventh District Muddle Independently. Leaders In the Democratic party Trent over the head of Thomas S. Meeker, city chairman, in making overtures to the Seventh District Democratic Women's Club, which - may result In peace being declared between the club and the city organization, it was learned today. Boyd M. Ralston, candidate for mayor, and Thomas Taggart, made advances to Mies Julia E. Landers, president of the club, after Meeker had so hopelessly messed the situation that it seemed like ly the club would work in entire Inde pendence of the city headquarters, it is said. Mr. Ralston suggested that the chair manship of the speakers' bureau of the city organization be given to Miss Lan ders, as president of the Seventh Dis trict Club. A committee from the club, composed of Mrs. H. W. Bobbitt, Mrs. Isaac Born and Mrs. Addie Frank, met with John W. Holtzman, Edward B. Raub and Oren Hack, representing th" organization and approved this solution of the deadlock, which came about through Meeker's insistence that he have practically everything to say about who should be on the list of recognised women workers. SETTLEMENT DEPENDS OX CLIB'S APPROVAL. Whether the controversy will be settled by the oppointment of Miss Landers de pends upon whether the Seventh district club approves. Miss Landers said today. She sent out postcards calling a meeting, for the club members only, to be held at the Indiana Democratic Club Tuesday evening. There are 16*5 members and Miss Danders admitted that there may be some widely divergent ideas. She believes, she said, that the plan will be ratified. Mrs. Martin L. Reiffel, who resigned from the women's city chairmanship, after finding that she could not get co operation from Meeker, is one of the members of the club who, apparently, is not yet ready to declare peace. Mrs. Keif fel indicated that it never will be pos sible for her to work In harmony with the city chairman. "I resigned because Meeker made so many promises that he wouldn’t keep." said Mrs. Reiffel. "We're going to stand for women having a voice in their own affairs.” STATEMENT OF MRS. REIFFEL. A statement was issued by Mrs. Reiffel as follows: “Asa member of the Seventh District Democratic Women’s Club. I wish to ■state that the attack on Miss Landers, by Mr. Meeker, is absurd. The women of the Seventh District Democratic Women’s Club are standing by princi pal. and are not going to be whipped into line to follow the plan of Mr. Meeker and Mrs. Bodemiller. Os course, Mrs. Bodemiller. not having had expe rience. which the women chairman of precinct women had in the former cam paign. does not realize how essential It is that the women shall have a voice in appointing the precinct committee women or ward chairmen. Xot only is it neces sary that they appoint the precinct workers and ward chairmen, but also ail women who serve on the election board. If women have only the privi lege of voting. Mr. Meker and Mrs. Bodemiller will discover that women who have the future welfare of the city at heart will use their vote to the best ad vantage. The flag of this great United States stands for truth, fidelity, charity, justice and brotherly love, and It would be well for Mr. Meeker, Democratic city chairman, to remember this.” WOMEN' WISH VOICE IN' APOINTMENTS. Democratic women are particularly anxious that they have a voice in the appointment of women ward and precinct eommitteewomen because of some things which happened in the primary campaign, Mrs. Reiffel said. Under the Meeker or ganization plan, committeemen will se lect their women assistants in tha pre cincts, while ward eommitteewomen will be chosen practically by agreement be- MOTION PICTURES.

Advices from Paris say nightgowns for the first time in history are to be short. Women have tried pajamas, bllli burkes and Parlous other nocturnal innovations, but never before have they dared to dream of a nightgown that did not reach to the ankles. The new styles, however, extend only slightly below the knees. The general effect is said to be almost as daring as the present street attire. tween the ward committeemen and Mrs. Bodenmiller and Meeker. So far as is known, the settlement of the difficulty with the women's club does not include deviation from this plan. This, it is said, may be takpn as grounds for re fusing to approve the “treaty of peace” by some women who attend the meeting next Tuesday evening. Mrs. Reiffel said that she, for one, wished to be sure that the Democratic women have a voice in the selection of workers because Meeker promised her before the primary election that he would put a woman on every election board, such board members to be recommended by precinct committewomen, a promise Meeker did not keep, and because women want to watch what goes on behind the scenes at the polls. “We re Interested in clean elections and we want women on these election boards," sche said. “To show the need for this I need only tell of something which hap pened to a woman whom I got on one of the boards in the Tenth ward after considerable difficulty. The men wanted her to take a walk while they counted the votes. She didn’t take the walk and she saw that the votes were counted as they had been cast.” Empty Jail Yawns for Muncie Surplus Fpeda! to The Times.

JUDGE PROMISES ICE DECISION ON MONDAY Declaring that the public was entitled to consideration in cases of public Interest and that such cases should be disposed of with as much dispatch as possible, Judge W. H. Elchhorn of Blnffton, who Is sitting as special judge of Superior Court, Room 1, in .the “ice trust” suit filed by Attorney General U. S. Lesh and directed against certain ice companies and Indi viduals, today had under consideration several important questions of law which were advanced yesterday by counsel. “On Monday morning the caurt will ad vise counsel whether they will be re quired to make preparations for a hear ing on the petition for a temporary' re straining order,” said Judge Elchhorn.

The court indicated that, the official entry would be made on the following Tuesday, and If the court held the cause to a hearing on the motion of the State for a temporary restraining order, that the hearing would probably begin im mediately.

Thompson that the price of Ice was advanced fol lowing Stanley WyckofTs retirement as Federal food administrator for Marlon County to become executive secretary of the Indiana Ice Dealers' Association. Mr. Miller declared that the price of ice was approved by a fair price commit tee and that it was increased about a year before Mr. Wyckoff became secretary of the ice dealers' association. TWO QUESTIONS TO BE DECIDED. "I will correct my statement regard ing Mr. Wyckoff and the price of ice,” said Mr. Thompson. "Mr. Miller con tends that I am in error regarding that 16 Lbs.

It was an error of Information.” Judge Elchhorn has two important questions to decide, as follows: Has the court the authority at this stage of the litigation to entertain an application for a temporary re straining order to prevent the firms from operating as an alleged trust? Should the court sustain the pleas in the special appearance of ail of the defendants in opposition to the motion of the State asking that there be a hearing on its motion for a tem porary restraining order? Mr. Miller has raised a legal question by questioning the power of the court to Issue a restraining order in eases of this nature at this stage of the litigation which has never been raised before in the State. If the court should hold that an Im mediate hearing should be had on the pe tition for a restraining order against the ice firm and other defendants, it prob ably will require most of next week to conclude the hearing.
