CLEAN UP CITY
CAMPAIGN HAS
GOOD BEGINNING
Wagon Trains Haul Trash
From Three Sections
First Day.
Getting away to a good start yesterday
in clearing collected trash from Norwood
and the section north of Fall Creek to
Thirty-Fourth street, city wagons today
covered cTuch territory in the “Let's Clean
’Er Up” campaign which the Fire Pre
vention Committee, of the Chamber of
Commerce and the city departments are
sponsoring.
Three large sections of Indianapolis,
besides several smaller areas, were cleared
of collected rubbish by city wagon trains.
Three units, each consisting of a motor
truck with ash wagon body, and six
trailers, manned by eight men, cleaned
up that part of the city between Martin
dale avenue and the canal and Twenty-
First street to Fall Creek. Other unit*
covered the section from Sherman I 1 rive
to Keystone avenue, between East Mich
igan and East Tenth street, and the sec
tion from the Big Four Railroad tracks
south to Prospect street, between Shelby
street and the Big Four.
Tomorrow these sections of the city
will be cleared of collected rnbbirh by
city wagon units, cent out by the board
of sanltarv commissioners: From Six
teenth street north to Twenty-First
street between Martindale avenue and
the canal; from Keystone avenue to the
L. E. & IV. Railroad tracks, between
East Michigan and East Tenth streets,
and from Prospect street to Pleasant
Run, between the Big Four Railroad
and Shelby street.
The "Let's Clean 'Er Up” campaign
is resulting in a bigger spring clean-up
of the city than in any previous year,
members of the board of sanitary com
missioners declare. The fire prevention
committee expresses the opinion that ev
ery day up to the close of the ciean-up
period, April 22, will keep the trash col
lecting wagons busy, as the majority of
Indianapolis people are following the re
quest of the committee to clear away
all trash.

HERBS USED IN MEDICINES
A Manchester, England, paper urges
the renewed cultivation of old-fashioned
medicinal herbs in English gardens. In
the United States they tave also gone
out of fashion as a feature of the small
garden, although they are imported in
large quantities from Turkey, India and
China, where they are grown purely for
commercial purposes, as their medieianl
value is recognized by many leading
physicians. Tons of Medicinal herbs
are used annually In the preparation of
Lydia E. I’inkham’s Vegetable Com
pound. a most successful medicine for
woman’s ills. It contains no narcotics ,
or harmful drugs, and women afflicted
with such ailments should try it.—Adver

Every Monday Blue
for Tired Pupils
BUFFTON, April s.—Every Monday is
a bine Monday in the Buffton High
School.
Many pupils make Monday a day of
rest and those who do attend usually are
apathetic.
Prof. P. A. Allen, superintendent of the
schools, characterized the disease as
"Sundayltls.”
"It may be attributed to several
causes,’’ he said, "overeating, exposure
and loss of sleep.
Proceeding on the theory that the latter
was the most general cause he requested
parents to keep their children home on
Sunday nights.

Automobile Fans
Try to imagine the entire surface of
the Fletcher American National Bank
Building four walls and roof—
covered with automobile fans, and you
will picture just two per cent of the
yearly output of such articles in this
city.
The retail value of the yearhr output
of this product is eight and one-quar
ter million dollars. Every state in the
Union and most all foreign countries
are shipping points for Indianapolis
made automobile fans.
Each year there are over four thou
sand tons of steel and over two thou
sand tons of grey iron used in the
manufacture of this product, in ad
dition to various other fittings and at
tachments which go to make up a com
plete fan. In manufacturing fans
over 110,000 square feet of floor space
is occupied.

bounds, . still I think that basic condi
tions are much better than they were
six months ago and better than they were
thirt.* days ago. I do not think there
will be a complete return to prosperity
until the farmer has harvested at least
two crops more. The farmer is buying
only from hand to mouth, by necessity,
and” the public in general is doing like
wise. There is some improvement in
manufacturing, from the reports that
come to me. but it is not startling."
The automobile business, he said, Is
some better and that o'ught to relieve the
unemployment situation, which, in turn,
should relieve somewhat the tension of
the entire situation.
There is plenty of loanable money, ac
cording te Mr. Stainaker, for the carry
ing on of the manufacturing industries,
as well as other lines of general business,
but there is no demand for it, due to the
fact that there is no great demand for
the output of such industries.
BLESSING
IN DISGUISE.
The fact that the people are buying
only what they really need, Mr. Stainaker
said, will result in benefit for everybody
concerned in the end, although at the
present it is a drawback.
Tellers, he said, are not taking in the
money they were this time last year, but
this is due to the economy program the
people are carrying on through necessity.
Howard C. Binkley, president of the
Bankers Trust Conpany, entertains opti
mistic views. He not only said business
in general Is now much better than it
was thirty days ago, but he also said he
feels the country is much nearer
"normalcy” than many people think.
The fact that the Government last
month cleared itself of some of its in
debtedness seemed to be a very pleasing
and impressive matter with several
bankers. They feel this is not only a
step forward, but It is a thing that
should inspire confidence in the general
public.
4 OU ME OF BOND
BUSINESS GOOD.
Bond dealers, and securities and Invest
ment brokers all say the volume of busi
ness Is good and they can see a gradual
betterment.
The manager of one of thp largest in
vestment houses in the city said for the
past three months the volume of the busi
ness carried on by the house had oeen
increasing. January, he said, was the
record month. Sales during March were
better than those of February. With the
opening of this month business came In

with a rush, 'he said. Sales of stocks,
bonds and securities during March were
above those of February in spite of the
fact that during March there has been
almost always. In the past, a temporary
slump in business.
“We have passed, financially, through
the valley of the shadow of death,” ac
cording to the views of Gilbert B. Clip
pinger, secretary of the Fletcher Amer
ican National Bank, “and we are all well
on the way to that normal condition that
existed before the war.’
BETTER PRICES
HELPS PROGRESS.
The recent releasing of the tension of
the condition of the agricultural industry
by better prices for grains, stock and
other farm products has done much to
further progress, Mr. Clippiager stated. ,
Farmers have sold some of the grains
they had stored and hogs and cattle
they had been feeding and holding for
better prices and wi the proceeds have
liquidated loans at m.ry banks, which
In turn have paid oollgatlons at the
larger financial Institutions. This, Mr.
Cllpplnger said, has lessened to a grpm
extent, the tight condition of loanable
money and has aided In providing some
industries with much-needed capital.”

FOR ARIZONA

on the ranges, in which thousands of
head were lost. Cotton, the third great
staple, went to less than half the cost
of the previous year’s production, and
thus completed the down-grade move
ment of the best three resources of the
State. During the period just before the
finanieal slump and the restriction of
credit the agricultural communities in
Arizona, particularly the Salt River val
ley, had had the same experiences as
other farming communities. Pima cot
ton had sold the year before at from
70 cents to $1.32 per pound. Money
was plentiful and land prices were in
flated. Visioning dollar cotton, everyl
body bought or rented high-priced
land and put in all they could. Labor
went to twice its regular price, and the
money flew.
Before the cotton was picked the bot
tom had dropped out of the market, but
picking labor was twice as high as nor
mal and ginning rates wore way up. Then
began a long : effort to hold the
crop until it would bring someth.ng bet
ter. Money was borrowed on it, and It
was carried month after month until,
when the last crop was picked, a large
part of the previous crop was still there.
REAL ARIZONIANS
NEVER LOST GRIP.
Meantime, however, the Arizonians—
the real oneB —never lost their grip. The
copper men got together and agreed not
to sacrifice by underbidding the market
down further. The cattle men held on.
The cotton growers got together and or
ganized a cooperative. Then things be
gan to get better. Copper improved, and
the mines began to reopen, late this win
ter. Cattle loans were secured, some
from the War Finance Corporation, some
elsewhere; the bad season was succeeded
by agood one and hope seemed Justified.
The Cotton Association secured financing
from the War Finance Corporation and
thus, by organization and financing, re
stored confidence In cotton and about
half the two crops has been sold. The
banks are now In good shape throught
partial liquidation; the value of land Is
down and the losses taken; land that was
idle last year Is all broken and ready to
plant, where It was not planted to win
ter crops, and. In general, it is fair to
say that Arizona is coming back.
The cotton cooperative, called the Ari
zona Fima Cotton Growers' Association,
is modeled after the Oklahoma Grow
ers’ Association, which has been dc- j
scribed in these dispatches. It markets
the greater part of the crop. Pima cot
ton is a long staple, which sells on the
market in competition with Egyptian
cotton. The State produced in 1920
about 80,000 tales and in 1921 about 33,000
bales. The crop cost about 60 cents a
pound to produce and the 1921 crop about
30 cents a pound. The present estimate
for the 1922 crop, based on the average,
Is about 45,000 bales. At the present mo
ment about 65,000 bales of the 1920 and
1921 crop have not been'sold, but this
will be marketed in an orderly way by
the cooperative before the new crop comes
in. These cooperatives are anew de
velopment and are Just now in their
The cotton cooperative in
this State hes the support of the chief
growers, in the face of the fact that for
the last two years it has had to over
come an unusual situation and market a
good part of the crop at less than the
cost of production.
YOUNGEST STATE
FIRST ORGANIZED.
Arizona, the youngest State in the
Union, 1b the first to have a state-wide
organization, Including every industry, to
work for the advancement of the State
as a whole. The organization is the Ari
zona Industrial Congress. The first two
months of its work show it will remain
as the first agency of its kind In the
country. Many of 11 le States have organ
izations devoted to the development of
special industries; but in the Arizona In
dustrial Congress al! these have been
united into one agency, to work for the
benefit of all. The progress is unique
In that it Includes, on an equal standing
and with equal representation on Us
board of directors, farmers, business
men, mining men, professional men, pub
lic utility men and livestock men. Thus
every industry of the State Is represented.
Its objects are:
The use of Arizona products in Arizona,
to give tho State’s producers a market
for their products.
Lower freight rates, to benefit every in
dustry and Individual, without unfair
ness to the railroads.
The development of the Colorado
River, to provide water for Arizona's
arid lands and electric power for Ari
zona's growing industries.
Economy and efficiency In government
to lessen the burden of taxation on every
one.
The advertising of the State’s resources
and advantage to bring more people and
more Industries to Arizona. —Copyright,
