FIGHTING REPORTED IN RRAZIL BETWEEN FEDERALS AND REBEL

BY C. A. POWELL United Press Staff Correspondent Rio de Janeiro, Oct. 10.—(UP)— Brazilians were called to their “posts of duty” to combat the revolutionary movement in a manifesto issued by President Washington Luis today. Revolutionists were accused of spreading subversive propaganda “to stimulate anarchist and communistic germs” in the presidential manifesto. The public was assured that the Federal government felt able to crush the rebellion. “The people should not allow themselves to tye deceived by terrorizing rumors or alarming neWb broadcast by radio for the purpose of injecting uncertainty and confusion into the country,” the manifesto said. “Fulfilling a mission in which it does not recognize failure, the government will adopt all necessary measures for the repression of disorder and the maintenance of the public.” The Brazilian Red Cross was called out for duty today and issued safe conduct passes in accordance with international treaties. The government continued control of food supplies and mobilization of reserves. Business was carried on as usual in the capital, with exception of closed banks. A civil war of long duration appeared probable as volunteers responded to the federal call for men. Most of them presented themselves without any great display of enthusiasm but seemed to take their service as a matter of necessity. Simultaneously, the federal circles reported the bombing of the city of Bello Horizonte, capital of the Rebel state of Minas Geraes, where wide damage was done to

LACK OF WORK IS NO GRIME GAUGE Expert Says Lazy Young People are the Real

Criminals.

Indianapolis, Oct. 10.—(UP)— Unemployment during financial depression is not a serious cause of crime, believes E. L. Osborne, chief of the state bureau of criminal identification and investigation, who has spent years in state and federal criminal service. Osborne said crimes are commit-

public buildings and heavy casualties were inflitted. Mobilization of strong Federal forces in Sao Paulo state continued in a determined effort to meet the advance . of revolutionaries from the southern states. ' Advices from Victoria, on the coast north of the capital, said Minas Geraes state police (Rebels) and government troops engaged in a “violent encounter” at the town of Pouso Alegre, in Minas Geraes state. Minas Geraes police from the town of Rio Novo also were reported attacking the Federal military stronghold' at Juiz de Fora, but were repulsed. Revolutionary forces totalling about 40,000 men were reported advancing from the state of Parana into Sao Paulo today, in an effort to take possession of the rich Federal stronghold which lies southward of Rio de Janeiro. Insurgent leaders claimed that three-fifths of the Federal forces had joined the revolution and that a southward march into the state of Bahia, from Rebel states in northern Brazil, continued unchecked. The Rebels claimed to have penetrated into Rio de Janeiro state, near Campos, north of the capital, and at Lorena, south of the capital, cutting off railroad connections betweemRio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. *r *t*fl President Washington Luis at Rio de Janeiro, issued a call for all Brazilians to go to their posts of duty to combat the revolt, and Federal forces were reported turning back the Rebel troops in the central state of Minas Geraes after airplane bombing raids which inflicted heavy casualties and damage at Bello Horizonte.

[records to prove his statements for those persons who doubt him. “Much of the blame for crime [rests on the movies, magazines and newspapers- The institutions play it so prominently that it is kept uppermost in the public mind. Young boys and girls virtually are raised on crime literature and movies. They have it before them all of the time. Their minds are filled with crime and criminals. “During this past year, when business conditions were low, we found that few crimes were committed by men in need of groceries and clothing for their families. There were a few, but the great majority of robberies were committed by youths seeking easy money. Osborne also believes that crime is seasonal and a wave sweeps the country every fall and winter. He was unable to explain why, but said it has been found that crime increases greatly every fall and then decreases to a small degree during the summer months.

Assistance is Given to Many Indiana Corporations. Indianapolis, Oct. 10-—(UP)— Fifty state aid checks, totaling $170,900.08, have been mailed to school corporations from the department of public instruction and the remainder of t#e 250 applications will be filled withiu a few

days.

The payments represented "lOO per cent on the applications, the first time since the school year 1925-26 that full payment has been made, Superintendent Wisehart

said.

The full payment was made possible largely by the primary law of 1929, which placed 45 per cent of the revenue from the state 7cent school tax in the state-aid fund. Previously the revenue had been 30 per cent. All purchases by school corporations this year were given prior approval by Harry Kirk, state aid auditor. This and the elimination of 150 teaching positions resulted in economy of approximately $200,000, Kirk said. Included in the checks mailed today were the following: Linton township, Vigo county, $3,729.17; Jackson township, Greene county, $5,832.90; Carbon township, Clay county, $1,472,35; Cass township, Clay county, $2,582.42; Center Point township, Clay county, $1,164.38; Lewis township, Clay county, $6,702.32, and Noble

RIVER COMBERS REAP PROFITS

Pearls and Lotus Lily Seeds Bring Income to Residents.

Red Wing, Minn.—(UP)—Three industries, little known but furnishing employment to many inhabitants, are found along the banks of the upper Mississippi, extending from here south to well into Iowa. “River spuds,” lotus lily seeds, clam shells and “slugs” are the products of these industries. Scores of “clammers,” whose yearly income comes from clams scraped from the river bottota, also market “river spuds,” potatolike bulbs that grow in the muddy bottoms. There is a good demand for these bulbs in Chicago markets. Some few “clammers” also collect lotus lily seeds which they dispose of once a year and which later become blossoms in many

homes.

This year two hundred tons of clam shells, a half bushel of slugs” or irregular shaped fresh water pearls and a tiny handful of well lustered vauable pearls represent the summer’s output on the river between the he^d of Lake Pepin and Diamond Bluff. The output of clammers at Frontenac, Wacouta, Malden Rock, Trenton and along the Vermillion

Famous Musician Takes Hawaiian Instrument on Polar Tours

Bloomington, Ind., Oct. 10.—(U P)—Architects will have plans for the new Union building at Indiana university drawn by December 1, and bids will probably be received about the first of the year, trustees of the institution revealed at their business meeting here. T 0 — DATE SET FOR PACIFIC SHOW

San Francisco, (U.P.) — The third annual Pacific Coast boat show will be held here March 7 to 14, according to an announcement just made. The cruiser race from Long/ Beach to San Francisco will be one of the outstanding events of

the show.

New York City.—Dick Konter has played music farther north and south than any other human bei«g. He accompanied the Byrd expeditions to the North and South poles and was within seven hundred fifty miles of the northern and southern extremities of the earth. Accompanying him was his ukelele! "American dance music Is the bnly music with universal appeal,” says Konter. “Neither the Esquimaux nor the Maoris got anything out of high class music. It was only when we played syncopation that they became interested in gha ukulele^ ~ i

. Konter taught a class of Maori girls in the southernmost part of New Zealand and also had a class of Esquimaux girls beyond the Arctic Circle. "Try as I might, I could not get them interested in anything but rhythm,” he explains. "They all like dreamy southern songs of the mammy variety, though I was surprised to hear the Maoris* singing the ‘Stein Song.’ “ ‘Alabama Lullaby,’ a mammy waltz song which a friend sent me also made a great hit in the Antarctic. It was quite a sight to see hundreds of Maoris dancing to this pleasant piece.” Konter is one of the few men who made both poles with Byrd. He is an ex-navy man and between polar jaunts teaches ukelele which he learned first-hand in the Hawaiian Islands.
