tional Sunday School Association and the
Sunday School Council of Evangelical
denominations were merged into one body

‘NOW WE ARE
IN, LET’S STAY’
IS SENTIMENT
Broad Ripple Citizens Hold
Meeting to Consider
Annexation.
“We are a part of Indianapolis now.
Let's stay that way,” was the sentiment
expressed by Dr. R. C. Light, principal
speaker at a meeting on the question of
the annexation of Broad Ripple to Indi
anapolis at Shadd's Hall, Sixty-First
street and College ave.iue, last night.
“We have a higher tax rate than Indi
anapolis,” Dr. Light said, “but we rnusn't
advertise this or perhaps Indianapolis
may change its mind and not take us in.”
The meeting was arranged by those
who favor annexation and the purpose of
It was to find ways and means to fight the
remonstrance proceedings and court ac
tion of those who oppose annexation.
Speakers included B. F. Osborn, tem
porary chairman; Claude McElwaine, J.
Edward Morris, W. J. Gemmil and others.
A committee with John B. Ilessong.
chairman; Mr. Gemmil, secretary, and
the following members: Frank Osborn,
Frank Walker, James King, Dr. R. C.
Light, George Kerr, William Leonard,
Claude McElwaine, E. F. Edgecombe.
Harrison Walters, George Cruse, J. K.
Kite, O. R. Throckmorton, C. I, Aber
crombie, Samuel King, Platt Whitehead,
F. O. Eaton, Thomas Southern, Mrs.
Mattie King, Mrs. Shirley Dean, Mrs.
Emma Ehler, and Mrs. Leona Batty, was
named.
A singular circumstance pointed out
by Dr. Light, at last night's meeting is
that his son, Dr. Mason B. Light, is one
of the committee taking an active part
in the effort throqgh court action to pre
vent annexation. Other members of the
anti-annexationists committee are Dr. G.
F. Hessiar, and Fred Reschar.
In explaining the family difference over
the question which has stirred Broad
Ripple, Dr. Light said:
“My son Is in this fight against me—l
don't know why—and I am ashamed he
is against us. There has been something
said by some people that there is money
involved in this affair, but if there had
been such a thing I am quite sure I
would have known something about it.
I’ve failed to see any money involved. I
believe three-fourths of the people oi
Broad Ripple favor annexation.”
Dr. Light said he had been a resident
of Broad Ripple forty-two years and had
aeen Indianapolis grow from the time
when there was not a single house in
Fall Creek bottoms, until the present
time, when the whole intervening terri
tory is being built up. He said Broad
Ripple is in reality a part of Indianapo
lis and dependent on the city for its
growth and conveniences. Dr. Light said
the matter of city street car service was
of Bpecial interest to him.
One of the points brought out by speak
ers was the question of K sewer system
which is being held up by Indianapolis
pending annexation of Broad Ripple. It
was pointed out a trunk sewer system
couid uot be obtained by Broad Ripple
except by becoming a part of Indianapo
lis. Failure of Broad Ripple to bring
about any street improvements was con
demned by those at the meeting.
A petition urging Mayor Shank to sign
the annexation ordinance was circulated
at the meeting and members of commit
tee appointed for the purpose will obtain
additional names.
Pro-annexationists are scheduled to
meet again tonight at Shadd’s Hail while
the “antis" are scheduled to have a meet
ing at the home of Fred Reschar, 5420
College avenue.

TO REORGANIZE,
RECEIVER SAYS

in the hands of receivers, will be re
organized soon, it has been announced

Frederick Van Nuys, have operated the
business.
In addition to the Indianapolis plant
at Nineteenth street and Columbia ave
nue, the Midwest company owns and
operates the Hill Tump Works at An
derson.
Mr. Stevens issued a statement yester
day covering the status of the com
pany and a report of progress. “The
reorganization that is about to be con
sumated is the same as the one previous
ly reported and there will be no change
in plans,” said the statement. "It may
take a month or two longer for the re
ceivership to be closed and the new com
pany to be operating yet this period of
time will be needed only for the wind
ing up of legal questions and minor de
tails.”
All claims against the old company
must be filed with the receivers or be
fore Judge Solon J. Carter in Superior
Court, room 3, before June 20.
The property of the company, will be
offered for sale July 11, it was stated,

The Marion County Tuberculosis As

children in six nutritional classes
throughout the city, showing tremendous
gains in weight for many of tho under
weight children. All of the classes ex
cept that at the Indianapolis Orphans
Home, have now been suspended for tho
summer vacation. The nutrition work
grew out of the efforts put forth by the
local tuberculosis association last fall
when it brought Dr. William R. P.
Emerson from Boston for a series of
nutritional lectures in an effort to bring
up the children in the Indianapolis pub
lic schools to a weight standard of
normal or better.
Following I>r. Emerson's course of iec

health habits were developed among the
children and proper food given them.

classes Indicate definitely thut the un

Officials of the tuberculosis association
pointed out that under the guidance of
skilled physicians many of the best gains
in weight were recorded in the classes.
More than 100 children were enrolled dur
ing the year In the six classes, many of

weeks with their weights back Jo normal
During the course of the classes many
corrections of physical defects were possi

OPPOSITION TO
JOHNSON SHOWS
UP AT MEETING
Charles G. Moore Indorsed as
Candidate for Seat in
Senate.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 22.—Aetlye op
position to the renomination of Senator
Hiram Johnson developed here last night,
when, at a mass meeting conducted by
prominent Californians, Charles G.
Moore, former president of the Pan-
American Pacific Exposition, was en
dorsed for Johnson's sent.
Charges that Johnson had allied him
self with the Henrst political interests
and had opposed the wishes of California
Republicans in fighting the four-power
pact and the Washington conference,
were made by various speakers.

last Democratic Administration, and the
Republican platform of this year leaves
the way open for this- sort of thing to
continue. It is absolutely astounding
when we reflect that it is now costing
the taxpayers of Indiana more annually
to maintain the Stnte highway commis
sion than all tlie money collected in an
entire year for State purposes under the
last Democratic Administration and yet
that administration was not only a pro
gressive, but also a debt-paying admin
istration.”
< ITES PROMISE TO
REPEAL TAX LAWS.
Mr. Ralston cited the Democratic plat
form pledge to repeal the Goodrich tax
law and write in Us place a statute plac
ing a limit on tax levies that can not
be exceeded without a majority vote of
the community affected, by way of con
trast showing the Democratic party has
an ear to the desires of the people.
“This plank alone ought to guarantee
the success of the Democratic party this
fall,” he said. "Either that or the peo
ple should quit complaining of the ex
cessive turdens of government.
“Never in my experience in politics
has any party proposed for the people to
take -back unto themselves such complete
control over the vital question of tax
ation—a question that lies at the very
basis of free government."
Indorsement of the records of Senator
.Taines E. Watson and Harry S. New as
backers of the Administration and in
the same Republican Slate platform in
dorsement of the candidacy of Albert J.
Beveridge for United States Senator were
humorously alluded to by Mr. Ralston.
“The machine part of the Republican
party never loses an opportunity to as
sure the public of President Harding's
popularity, in Indiana, and certainly I
would not charge that our President is
unpopular. But, if Mr. Harding is as
ropular here as some persons claim he
is, liow did it happen that the Republic
ans of this State turned Senator New
down at the recent primary by a ma
jority vote of more than twenty thou
sand V Senator New had long bee na
faithful party man. He had never
turned his back upon his party and had
never tried to destroy it. The platform
says that he had taken "a leading part’
in the constructive legislation of Con
gress, and had ‘given the fullest and
most sympathetic cooperation to the
executive branch of the Government.’
“WHY DID STATE
REPUDIATE NEW?”
“If this eulogy be true, and I have no
reason to think that it is not, I cannot
understand, in view of the fact that the
President is said to be so popular in In
diana, why Indiana Republicans re
pudiated Senator New and nominated
over him by distinguished opponent, who
was never recognized as a supporter ot
the conference called by the President for
the limitation of armaments and who has
never ‘hailed the treaties agreed upon in

of their nutritional development. Chil
dren in the class at tho Indianapolis

twenty-three weeks, while the expected
gain for that period of time was about
fifty ’ ’.unde. The average gain per child
In all the classes during the period was
eight pounds, while the normal gain
would have been 3.9 pounds. Throughout
tle classes a rate of gain twice as great
as had teen expected was recorded. Sev
eral of the children registered unusual
gains. Charles Turner of the Orphans

ence. My opponent is not a ‘Four-
Power Pnct'-er, and I have about at

This conference and its work are said
to be the crowning achievement of tho
Harding Administration and Senator New]
was sympathetically at tho side of the
President in all that he did in connec- ]
tlon with tho conference and to make
successful all the policies of tha Admin
istration.

popular with tho people as some of his
enthusiastic friends seem to believe. 1

largely by the defeat of .Senator New
and by the nomination for Senator ot
Hon. Smith W. Brookhnrt in lowa.
Brookhart struck right out from the
shoulder In his candidacy. lie did not
mince words tn saying what he thought
of the party in power. He condemned
the President for his position on tho
soldiers' bonus question. He did not
hesitate to say the President was wrong
in being for a ship subsidy, and, in the
language of a newspaper correspondent,
’he condemned the Administration foi 1
repealing the excess profits taxes and
he threw one verbal fit after another
over the seating of Newberry.' And
yet he was nominated by more thnn
40 per cent of all the votes cast, over
a field of five opponents.”
COMPARES CLAIMS
OF TWO PARTIES.
Claims of Republicans their party has
made all the material progress in years
were compared with achievements of the
Democratic Administration from 1912 to
1920.
“Let the facts tell their own story. Tn
1912, when a Democratic Administration
was chosen, our national wealth was $187,-
000,000,000, and in 1920, when Its Repub
lican successor was chosen, our national
wealth was $330,000,000,000. In 1012, our
national income was $33,000,000,000. and In
1020, it was $70,000,000.1)00. In 1012, our
foreign trade was $3,830,000,000 and in
1920, it was $13,500,000,000. In 1912, tlie
value of farm production was $9,009,000,-
000, and in 1920, It was $20,000,000,000. In
1912, agricultural exports were $1,050,000,-
000, and in 1920, they were near $4,000,-
000,000. A year after the war, the value
of manufactured goods, exported in one
month, equalled the amount exported in
an entire yenr under Taft’s Administra
tion. I challenge Republicans to match
this record, in any period of eight years
In our Nation’s history; and yet the peo
ple voted a change, but some have been
swearing and others praying, ever since."
The Republican policy at Washington
is hurtful to both the farmer and the
wage earner, he declared. The tariff
bill which is being condemned even by
some of the “rock-ribbed high tariff or
gans” as “too much to ask the people
| to endure," was cited as au example of
what is going on.

ate Committee Cost Must
Advance.
WASHINGTON, June 22.—Mr. Motor
ist might as well get used to the idea
of sky-high pdices for his gasoline.
Prices will contlnuo to soar higher and
higher each year, until they hit the
half-dollar mark. There they will stick.
That’s the burden of the message which
the oil men have gathered in Washing
ton to tell the La Follette Senate com
mittee. The committee wants to know
about the abrupt 4-cent Jump in the price
of “gas” all over he country at a time
when the gasoline surplus is grenter than
ever before, or more than a billion gal
lons.
“Gasoline is bearing the burden of ex
pense in oil refining,” the oil men say.
“There’s no market for other oil by
products. Hence, the gasoline user must
pay the 4 cents extra to make up for
losses in fuel oil and other products.”
That isn’t all they say. As petroleum
resources dwindle each year, they add
gasoline must come from shale. That's
a more costly process, but it offers an
unlimited supply of “gas” for genera
tions to come. To tap this supply,Mr.
Motorist and Mr. Tractor-farmer have
got to pay the price, pfrobably 50 cents
a gallon or thereabouts.
That's what's coming during the next
decade or so, oil men say.
"The great trouble with the gasoline
business is that the public got used to
paying prices that were below cost of
production,” J. D. Reynolds, represent
ing Western refiners, declared here.
The La Follette Senate committee Is
not disposed to accept these explana
tions from the oil men at face value.
Members of the committee remembering
when “gas” cost but 10 cents a gallon,
want to know why—now that the de
mand for gasoline has leaped to un
precedented bounds—"gas” has Jumped
in price to three times its original price,
with assurances from the oil trade that
It is going still higher. m

Pussyfoot Is
Willing to Give
His Other Eye
NEW YORK, June 22—“ I’d give my
other eye to maks England dry. It would
be well worth It.”
Pussyfoot Johnson, rum’s arch enemy,
made this assertion today In an inter
view with the United Press as he sailed
on the Cunarder Scythia.
When Informed London was awaiting
his arrival and planned to greet him with
stones, over-grown tomatoes and aged
eggs, the prohibition battler chortled:
"Say that's great. Let ’em come, I can
fight.
“And tell them England will be dry by
1935, if not sooner. She’s bound to go
dry. She can't help it. Economic pres
sure will be brought to bear and the na
tion will have to jump into position in
the dry procession.
“It will be necessary for England to go
dry in order to continue world trade.
Since this country w r ent dry our foreign
business has been increased three-fold,
■while England’s has slumped. That
proves that England, if she continues
wet, will be unable to compete with dry
America. She will have to follow suit
or disappear froni the foreign trade hori
zon.’
