i DEVOSS RULES AGAINST BANGS Local Judge Sustains Demurrer Filed By Public Utility 1 Huntington, Nov. 23. — The city of Huntington is entitled to no re- ■ lief from an injunction against the ' sale of electricity pending a de1' cislon from the Indiana supreme ' court, Judge Huber M. DeVoss of Decatur held Friday afternoon in 1 sustaining demurrers to a plea ■ seeking abatement of Northern Indiana Power company contempt proceedings against Mayor Clare W. H. Bangs and others. Regarding the sufficiency of a <15,000 power company injunction i bond which was questioned in a second paragraph of the plea in abatement, Judge DeVoss said he had no jurisdiction. The injunc-' tlon bond, he commented, was fix- - ed by a previous court and had no I connection with the matter at bar. The mayor and others are charg ed with violation of the Northern Indiana Power company’s permanent injunction, granted by Special Judge David E. Smith of Fort Wayne at the close of a previous hearing. City Attorney Claude Cline immediately filed a demurrer to the affidavit and Information in contempt which the court was unable to set for hearing definitely.

It Is not shown In the informs : tlon, Mr. Cline contends, that Wil ! Ham M. Large, district manager of the plaintiff company and signer, of the affidavit, was familiar with the acts complained of; that no specific offenses are charged against any one of the defendants and that it is not definitely shown whether the proceeding is in civil or criminal contempt.

Breckenridge Long, United States ambassador, in a statement today confirmed yesterday's United Press report of the ill treatment suffered I by the doctors, on vacation from the ■I Mayo Brothers clinic at Rochester, Minn. Formal protest will be made to the foreign office, it was learned, if the Venice consular report dis closes that grounds exist. It was understood that the physicians involved are F. Mosrsch and J. L. Bollman. They left Padua to--1 day for Turin, in an automobile escorted by police. First reports, received at the U. S. consulate at Milan, were that students surrounded the American's automobile as it stood in front of the Hotel Storione at Padua and hurled insults at the occupants. The Americans suffered no bodily Injuries. The stuednts are believed to have mistaken the touring Americans for Britons seeking to conceal nationality by displaying an American flag on the radiator cap. The flag was torn off by the demonstrators before police restrained them. The automobile bore British licence plates since the party had visited England before coming to Italy. When the students were finally convinced that tho occupants were Americans, they are reported to have apollgized. o Woman Sentenced As Chicken Thief Princeton, Ind., Nov. 23—(UP) — Mabel Hall, 35, Mt.

OIL SHORTAGE ! FACES ARMIES OF 2 NATIONS Indications Point To League Os Nations Placing Embargo On Oil By Collier Ford, (UP. Cable Editor) Oil, that unreplacable source of power for airplanes, tanks and army trucks, may be the deciding factor which swings victory to Ethiopia or Italy. Many a war has been fought tor | oil but 11 Duce's war may be lost i for lack of It and tw*o strong In-1 dlcations forecast possible defeat for the Italian armies, not from any military setback, but from un i economic embargo on oil that would stall her armies in the field and stop her penetration of Ethl : opia. Highly placed sources at Geneva predicted that the League of Nations committee, meeting next Friday, would name December 16 as the date on which the 62 nations cooperating in penaTties against Italy will deprive her of oil. In the replies today of the 52 nations to Italy's threat of reprisals against nations, the answer of the Netherlands, one of the great oil producing empires stood out. It was an offer to consider extending the present league embargo on key products to Italy to include oil and other raw materials. Well Informed British circles reported that Capt. Anthony Eden, I Britain’s suave chief league dele-1 i gate would Inform the league next week that hie nation te prepared to add oil to the key products list. The necessary support of the United States, another great oil, producing nation will not be lack-, 1 ing in any oil embargo, it has been indicated by official statements from Secretary of State Cordell ■ Hull and Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes. On November 15, Hull classified, oil as an "essential war material”! ' and declared that Its shipment to j , either belligerent was directly con- ! trary to policy of the United ! States. 0 Receive Bids For Equipment Dec. 13 Legal notice is published in to-! j day’s issue of ths Daily Democrat I that the board of public works and ! safety and the city council will receive sealed bids for the fur-! ! nlshing of a turbine, condenserj and for building an addition at I the municipal plant.
