DODGERS SWAMP NEW YORK NINE Giants Suffer Humiliating Defeat At Hands of Brooklyn Team New York. May I.— (U.P) —The chastened Giants were backed against the wall today as they braved another barrage of base hits, cannon crackers and well-aim-ed lemons in an attempt to square their series with the Godgers and regain the National league lead.

Winners by 12 to 5 yesterdav. I the Dodgers revived the batting attack that pulled them to the top and kept them there until the Giants shoved them into second place. Ebbets field fans reminded Bill Terry at intervals that Brooklyn still was in The league, and the chorus swelled in the third inning, when the Dodgers made six runs that drove fat Freddy Fitsimnions to the showers. During that spree the biggest of. the Brooklyn fans’ fire-crackers were set off and fruit—particularly aimed toward Terry at first base—was hurled in an enthusiastic out-' . burst. It was William Watson Clark, a I castoff Giant southpaw, who did the winning hurling yesterday for his third victory. He went the route and spaced 10 hits, while his mates pounded Fitzsimmons, then Gabler, und finally Changnon f :r a total of 15. Len Koenecke. also once a Giant, led the Dodger at- ■ tack with a homer in the fifth, a run-scoring single in the. eighth, and three runs for himself. Mel Ott, plaving third base in a makeshift infield, was the big gun of the Giants with a homer in the second. The Reds, who tied with Brooklyn for the lead earlier in the race, showed signs of rejuvenation by smacking the Cards. 12 to 2. and moving into fourth place while the I Cards dropped to fifth. ' Gene.Schott, the Reds’ 22-year-old right-handed rookie Trom TorI I onto, held the champions to five ! hits, and the Reds leaped on ’ | Haines, losing pitcher, HaUahan. 1 and Harrell for 13. Subdued by fines and suspensions on pitcher Guy Bush of the Pirates and shortstop Bill Jurges of the Cubs for their ipa r t in Monday’s fist fight, tne two clubs forgot their wrangles yesterday and played to a 3 to 0 Chicago victory. The Phillies and the Braves were stopped by the weather. Chicago- i Cleveland and Boston-Philadelphia also were idle. The Red Sox gained in the standings without playing and moved into fourth place when Washington lost to the Yankees. 9 to 8. Dickey and Lazzeri homered for the Yankees and Powell belted one • for the Senators. Goose Goslin hit his fourth homer for the Tigers and they scored their second one-sided victory in i two days, routing the Browns, 11 1 to 3. . Yesterday’s hero: Lett Watson * Clark, Brooklyn, who defeated the ’’ Giants. d o DIRECTORS FOR j CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE >i catur money was lost. d “Then a few 1.-ading citizens •s decided that from that time on > Decatur would be eold strictly on its merits.

PROPOSE STATE ’ REVENUE BUREAU ( Committee Suggests One| Bureau To Collect | Nearly All Income - Indianapolis. May 1 <U.R> Pro-], posal for establishment of a state i bureau of revenue, to collect virtu-1 ally all state income, was before: Gov. Paul V. McNutt today. i The suggestion was made by the, legislative committee on tax study , and governmental economy at the] conclusion of a two-day meeting! yesterday. The committee will meet again May 27 and 28. Hep. Joseph A. Andrew. R., latfayette. offered the resolution containing the suggestion after committee members had discussed the convenience of having one stale

collection agency. It watf believed that w the new bureau could be set up by the governor under the 1933 state government rcorganiatfon law without further legislative action. Details of the system were left to the discretion of the governor. It was planned, however, to have the state bureau handle collection of gross income, store license, gasoline, oil inspection, truck weight and automobile license funds. The resolution was the first adopted by the committee, appointed at the close of the last legislature to consider means of broadening the tax Tase. It was indicated at that time that a special session of the legislature might be called to enact new tax laws for financing a state social security program. Governor McNutt told the committee members yesterday that prospects for a special session are dim now. Indiana has excellent prospects of obtaining sufficient money from the federal government to finance a work relief program which will

employ 90.000 persons, the governor said. , The need for additional state funds to cooperate with the federal social security program expect, ed to be enacted by congress will determine definitely whether there will be a special session, he salt]. Next meeting of the committee was set nearly a month away as-1 ter the governor said congress was expected to have the social security bill one of the last items on its current program.
