EX-SHERIFF IS I DENIED PAROLE BY COMMISSION Ira Barton Is Denied Leniency By State Clemency Board FORMER BLACKFORD COUNTY SHERIFF — Indianapolis, Sept. 14. — (U.R> — The state clemency commission today denied leniency to Ira Barton. former Blackford county sheriff. serving a 21-year term in the state prison on charges of conspiring with fiur Chicago hoodlums to . rob the bank at Dunkirk. ■‘The board does not believe the ! prisoner lias served sufficient time ! io merit parole or commutation and recommends that his petition be denied,” the decision said. Barton was sentenced from Jay circuit court Feb. 18. 1932. He had been arrested on information given by one of the four men who robbed the Dunkirk bank. A posse killed one of the robj hers and captured the others. BarI ton had helped them to outline' their escape route and had promts- i ed to let them escape from the I Blackford county jail in case of capture. Instead, however, the robbers ’ were taken to the Jay county jail 'at Portland where they implicat i ed Barton, knowing that he could do them no good. A petition bearing the names of 500 persons was presented to the i commission at a hearing tor Barton two days ago. The petition asked that leniency be granted. Five paroles were granted today iby the commission and 17 other I prisoners were denied leniency. Those paroled were Wayne Morris. HuiiHugiim county, bumlary. Max R. Harrell. Grant county, embezzlement; Richard Evans, Lake county, burglary, and Grant Brough ' and Orel Barnard, Washington j county, burglary. Those denied leniency included: I Dennis Goldsberry. St. Joseph J county, robbery; Carl Wire; Van ’ <lerburgh county, rape; Robert Sims, Vanderburgh county, burg-1 lary; Robert and Russell Groover, I Madison county, burglary; laiw-■ i rence Hill, Lake county, burglary;! i Walter Miner, Lake county, rape; ! Leroy Harper, Lake county, rob. ibery; Paul .Chidzik. St. Joseph county, burglary, and Jack Davis, Cass county, robbery. DR. WIRT AGAIN IN PUBLIC EYE — Gary Educator Assails Brain Trusters At Conference Wellesley Hills, Mass., Sept. 14 —The "game of the New Dealers” I has been to outwit the politicians and thus "secure control of our gov- , ernment indirectly," Dr. William A. Wirt, nationally-known Gary. Ind., schoolmaster, declared In a speech I here today. “No one can successfully deny that they have succeeded,” he added. Dr. Wirt, who became famous through his sensational charges that brain-trusters planned a "Red” revolution, was addressing the 21et annual national business conference on "the other side of the New Deal” Many persons, he said, think that when we delegate to the government a 'grant of power "we are trusting a benign old Uncle Sam who is all wise and good, and will deal justly with his dear children." "They do not realize that in so doing we are turning absolute power over to the ordinary politicians who happen to be in political office. History teaches that men have, always suffered, much more from ! from the tyranny of politicians in control of absolute governments than they have suffered from any other form of tyranny. Os course, it is not surprising that these politicians do not object to this grant of absolute power so long as it is granted to themselves.” (Dr. Wirt eaid the brain-trusters “are painting horrible pictures of the tyranny exercised over men in a competitive world which they call a world, of conflict.” "They do not say anything about the fact that our government itself *(CONTLNUEi) ON PAGE FIVE)

Decatur, Indiana, Friday, September 14, 1934.

Former Senator Dies Suddenly ■ ' ■■■■■■Ml William Ixirimer. veteran Chicago, banker and politician, who dropped dead of a heart attack in a Chicago railroad station The controversy over the election of Lori- 1 mer to the United States Senate i in 1908 was one of the most bitter in the history of American poll-1 tics. He was seated in the Senate ' In 1909. but was disqualified on ' charges of bribery and corruption j in 1912. SWEEPING OEM 0 VICTORf SEEN Party Leaders, However, See Element Os Danger In Strength Washington, Sept. 14. — (U.R) —! Politicians today discovered an 1 element of danger to the adminis. I tration in the sweeping congress : ional victory definitely forecast ! now by returns this week from primaries and the Maine election. 1 The Republican campaign organ ! ization was shell shocked by Maine! | results. Democrats are correspond- ! ingly jubilant. About all the Republicans can discover to ease their nerves is that Michigan is more than likely to crawl under the G. O. P. tent in November. Against that probability must be measured the jeopardy in which Republican candidates elsewhere find themselves. Observers are swinging to the belief that the new deal will not lose 30 seats in the house. That would leave Mr. Roosevelt with a majority of 159. If successor to the late Speaker Henry T. Rainey is a strong-mind-ed, able man the house with fewer Democrats may do less bolting, | petition signing and rebelling in general next sesssion than last, i The overwhelming size of the' Democratic majority under Rainey actually was a handicap because it I fostered the formation of cliques, internal dissension and trouble. But the administration's serious 1 congressional problem next session will center in the senate. The Maine vote this week cut Senator Frederick Hale's Republican major I ity from 82.000 when he last ran in 1928 to a meager 1,200. Those figures are accepted here as meaning that Republican senatorial candidates in nine states are in for hot fights and that more ot them will lose than win. The Republicans most seriously challenged are: Robinson. Indiana; Kean, N. J.; Fess, Ohio: Patter, son, Mo.; Hatfield, W. Va.; France, Md.; Walcott, Conn.; Townsend, Del., and Hebert, R. I. The Roosevelt campaign gave the senate to the Democrats with 60 seats —a majority of 24. The 35 Republican senators are powerless. Unless senate Democrats are increased the chances of a real bolt become greater. There were evidences of unrest last session. Senators Glass, D.. Va., Byrd, 1)., Va., Gore, D., Okla., Tydings, D., Md., Bailey, D„ N. C., Ix>gan, 1)., I Ky.. and Smith. D., S.

SEEK TO PLACE KYLE ON BALLOT Republicans Will Take Stens To Have Name Put On Ballot Indianapolis. Ind.. Seipt. 14 (UP) i Steps to place the name of Joseph i Kyle, Gary, on the election ballot ■as Republican nominee for Lieu- | tenant-governor will be taken by a i-ommittee appointed yesterday by Don 'lrwin, Republican state Chairman. Irwin also has been a Ivised by an advisory legal committee that three holdover members of the state senate have vacated their posts by accepting state administration jebs. While the lieutenant-governor ordinarily is elected during the presidential years for four-year terms, it 1s the contention of the republican state committee that M. Clifford Townsend, the democratic incumbent. has vacated the office by ■ becoming head of the state department of commerce and industry. The committee of attorneys named by Irwin include U. S. Lesh, Solon J. Carter and Sidney Miller, Indianapolis, and a'ddison H. Bills. Lafayette. The republican state committee is ready to certify to t'he state election board the names of nominees chosen in the republican state convention in June when Kyle was named. The procedure, it is said, will be a mandamus action if the state election commissioners refuse to plate Kyle's name on the ballot. Irwin has been advised the legal committee that civilizian conservation camp workers must vote at their respective places of residence and not at the camps.

Sept. 14 — (U.R>—Dr. Berthold Laufer. who penetrated the. lore of forgotten centuries to obj tain Asiatic mysticisms known to! | few men of the western world, carried his weird secrets into death j today. | The 59-year-old anthropologist 1 and curator of Field museum 1 plunged from an upper floor of the fashionable Edgewater Beach hotel after scribbling a note to his stepson to “be a good boy and take ; care of your mother." The stepson, Ormond Hampton, said the scientist had been active'; until a month ago when he under-1 went an operation for a chest ailment. Since then he had not been I to the museum. But deep as his understanding' of strange men and strange things j ran, Dr. Laufer discussed them! rarely, his colleagues said. Only ! a meagre part of his discoveries were recorded. He appeared in recent years to have grown wistful in all his knowledge, they added. Dr. Laufer was educated at the University of Berlin, the Berlin Seminary for Oriental Languages and the University of Leipzig. He ! came to the United States in 1898. After leading several expeditions to Siberia, China, Sakhalin Island j and other remote places, he be- j came connected with Field museum in 1908. Seven years later he was ; made curator of anthropology. He spent several years in China, living in native costume and learning the different dialects. On liis return he brought 100.000 tiny pieces of Chinese type, representing 6,000 characters. In a short time lie had unscrambled them and was able to print treatises in Chinese.

LABOR LEADERS MAKE PLANS TO CALL MORE OUT Rhode Island Legislature Refuses To Ask For Army Troops ANOTHER PICKET DIES OF WOUNDS (Copyright 1934 by United Press) Wtishington, Sept. 11 (UR) Textile strike leatlers marshalled new forces in their battle with manufacturers today in the face of critical conditions in Rhode Island. They called in heads of all allied unions with the view to bringing new thousands out of the mills and adding them to the approximately 5tM),000 workers already involved in the I strike. The move came as indications ! grew that federal troops would not be used in the Rhode Island crisis j for the present. The proposal was turned down by the Rhode Island legislature. Stand by ord--1 ers which had been issued army I commanders were withdrawn. In addition President Roosevelt ! was reported at Hyde Park. N.Y., as wishing a thorough examination ' of conditions before resort was ; made to federal resources. A request for army troops can l»e made by the Rhode Island leg- ! islature while it is in session. ; Democratic legislative leaders opposed troop action and favored the closing of all textile mills instead. The mill towns of Woonsocket and Saylesville resembled cities in ' the war time with 2,000 national i guardsmen patrolling the streets. 1 Another strike picket died of 1 wounds bringing the national | strike toll to 13. Strike leaders here blamed the ! outbreak on mill operators. Francis J. Gorman, strike leader declared that: "Management has run a riotous i course.
