The motion to dismiss Fred Stauffer was made after the com"letion of the plaintiff's evidence The arguments were heard in the absence of the jury. The defense argued that under the Indiana law the owner of a family nurnrve cir 's not reliable for damages unless it is proved that the driver was i.cline a« on agent for a snecific cause.

C, 0. P, HEADS. RADIO CHAINS WAROVERTIME Accusations Os Prejudice For Democrats Is Refuted Today New York. Jan. 14.—(U.R) —Re- | publican party leaders aud yie I broadcasting chains swung lustily at each other today in a war over radio time for political uses. While President William S. Paley of the Columbia broadcasting system produced figures to prove tbat Republicans are getting better than an even break with the Democrats on the air, the G. O. P. radio committee announced that it had bought time on a Chicago > station and would present the first of a series of dramatic propaganda skits tonight. National Republican chairman , Henry P. Fletcher had accused the National Broadcasting company and Columbia of knuckling under to a ‘‘political party which regulates the issuance of your licenses.” He argued thnt if the chains ■ gave free time to speeches by President Roosevelt the Republican party was entitled in fairness to buy time for its proposed dramatic presentations. Paley wrote to Fletcher last week that "appeals to the electorate should be intellectual and not based on emotion, passion or prejudice." Fletcher retorted yesterday that “this seems almost funny in the light of the impassioned appeal to class prejudice made by the president in his congressional broadcast on January 3.” Paley rejoined last night that from Oct. 2 to Jan. 11 Columbia presented 16 political addresses by Republican spokesmen and 13 by Democrats, and that it has four Republican addresses l scheduled before the end of the month, to three for the Democrats. “We refuse to sell time to any political party before the conven- • i vT»i?r» nv r»*nF w*TVE> — -o GIVES FIGURE ON PAYMENTS Suear Beet Growers Have Received 88 Per Cent Os Payments Sugsir beet growers in the Decatur factory district including northeastern Indiana and western Ohio obtained approximately 88 per cent of the money due them on sugar beet AAA benefit payments before the supremo court ruled the act unconstitutional. These figures were compiled by L. E. Archhold, who as agricultural agent for Adams county, cleared all the records through his office. The growers of this district sold their beets to the Central Sugar company of this city. j The total payments to this terI rilory amounted to approximately $140,000, the largest amount paid !in any of the districts in the I Eastern division of the AAA. An AAA official tolil representa tires of local growers that the amount obtained by them was due in part to the spirit of cooperation existing between growers, laborers and fieldmen. Not a single i labor dispute was recorded. Tn I iso me Ohio territories', delays were caused by the fact that their contracts were cleared through the state agriculture school at Columbus. George Hill Able To Visit Others George Hill, who spent two months at the Adams county memorial hospital, following an illness resulting from sewer gas, was able yesterday to visit Martin J- Mylott, superintendent of the municipal plant and Councilman Albert Miller, now patients at the hospital. Mr. Hill was able to attend church Sunday, the first time since his illness. He is recovering rapidly, although quite weak from two months’ eon- j finement. He returned to his home December 21.

Jan. 14—(U.R) — 1 Gov. Harold G. Hoffman today said ■ he had “made no decision" on the . ouestion of granting a reprieve i that would prevent execution of Bruno Richard Hauptmann Friday night. Hauptmann's lawvers meantime continued conferences, preparatory . to making an eleventh-hour appeal to the federal courts to save the convicted murderer of Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr., from death in the electric chair. ( Chances of obtaining any consideration for him there were no slim it was generally agreed Hauptmann will die Friday night unless the governor decides to act ’ in the face of threatened political opposition to interfere with the ' execution. 1 Hoffman was busy today with otther matters in connection with ' convening of the state legislature. 1 which met at noon, and was not expected to make a decision on ' the reprieve question until to- • morrow or later. The governor said his trip to j New York over the week-end had no connection with the Haupt- ■ mann case. As his execution hour grew nearer, Hauptmann himself began i to grasp frantically at any straws. I pleading for a lie detector test and an interview with Col. LindI bergh. , I Already counting his probable life span in hours, P.auptmann be- ; trayed a growing anxiety i>y send- ! ing a message to authorities through his wife that he would "talk to anybody — Dr. Condon, Colonel Lindbergh—anybody." "Richard offered himself to any j test that thtey want him to take," Mrs. Hauptmann said through tears after a visit to the death house. “He will do anything at all to show that he is honest —that he is innocent." While the condemned man fought off fear in the death house, 30 feet from the electric chair, five lawyers began a new fight to obtain consideration of his case in the United States supreme court. They raced against time, for Gov. Hoffman showed no indication of ordering a reprieve and most lawyers considered three days too little to win a court delay.

NORRIS BACKS DRIVE TO CURB COURT POWERS Nebraska Senator Would Curb Powers Os All Federal Courts Washington, Jun. 14 (U.R) A ‘ congressional drive to curb the ! powers of the supreme and other federal courts won fresh support today witii a declaration by Sen. George W. Norris, R., that only by this method could a new farm aid program bo protected against attack. Norris’ declaration came as both house and senate agricultural committees studied proposals designed to replace the invalidated AAA. He said he had come to the “reluctant belief" that, unltess Congress curbed the owners of federal courts in constitutional cases, substitute AAA measures probably were doomed to the same fate as the new deal agricultural keystone. Such a proposal already lias been advanced with vigor in the • houoc where support of a bloc of ' about 40 members was claimed. Meanwhile, the house agricultur- ■ al committee reported favorably ! the Jones Bill for a domestic allotment system to be made effective in connection with a soil conserI vation plan. It would authorize loans not exceeding S3OO to farmers for cooperating in the crop proi duction control program or on ! proof they are not injuring tliat program. Committee study of AAA oubstiI tutes indicated little of startling nature was under consideration. ■ C'liairman Marvin Jones of the house agriculture committee spoke i in support of a domestic allotment isystem to be effected in connection with tentative administration plans for a soil conservation program. Farm group heads presented to the house committee a plan devised last week in consultation wi'li Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. President Edward A. O'Neal of the American Farm Bureau Federation urged prompt enactment of a law to prevent recovery of proi cessing taxes already paid. This would hold the processing tax loss of the government to the $200,000,l ODO (M) in impounded taxes order- ■ ed returned yesterday by the su- ■ prerne court. M. W.

BOND PROPOSAL SUBSTITOTEDAS BONUS MEASURE Senate Committee Favors Bond Bill; Huge Expenditures Shown Washington, Jan. 11. (U.R) —Secretary of Treasury, Henry Morgenthau, Jr., gave the senate finance committee a picture of huge government obligations today but failed to indicate definitely his opinion as to whether President Roosevelt would sign the compromise bonus bill. The senate committee voted 15 to 2 to report the bill favorably and substituted it for the house "united front" hill. The measure provides for payment in baby bonds which can be cashed immediately or held as an investment. The sec retary, who merely said the president would not sign a cash payment bill, told the committee of at least $11,300,000,000 which must lie obtained in the next 17’,i months and pointed to unexpected new needs for relief purposes of probably two billion. Details of Morgenthau's testimony were made public by Senator James Couzens, Rep., Mich., after both Morgenthau and the committee chairman, Senator Pat Harrison, had refused to discuss them. Couzens said the continued financial operation of the treasury would send the publie debt to an all time high of thirty-six billion five hundred million dollars. The bill may be passed by the senate before, the end of the week. Indications were that it would receive a favorable reception in the house. Veterans organizations, which united in support of the house bill, indicated they also approved the compromise senate measure. Budget Useless Washington. Jan. 14. —(U.R) —Congress and the courts will leave just enough of President Roosevelt’s budget undemolished to mark the spot where it stood before the explosion began. Mr. Roosevelt may as well prepare a new budget for the 1937 fiscal year which begins next July 1. It is too late now to do anything about the current fiscal year. The supreme court is diminishing federal revenue by invalidating new deal laws. Congress shorti ly will increase expenditures by voting immediately payment of tTTa soldiers’ bonus. Mr. Roosevelt did not budget for either of those contingencies. The national debt will go up by as many millions of dollars as there are millions worth of bonds (CONTINUED ON PAGE SIX) — o jDan Niblick At Merchant Meeting Dan Niblick left this morning for Auburn, where he will attend a meeting of the Tri-States Merchantii' Association.

DeVoss of Decatur will decide this week whether Mayor Clare W. 11. Range: and 10 co-defendants must stand trial on charges of civil contempt. The militant mayor-lawyer-edi-tor and the others are charged with violating a permanent injunction obtained by the Northern Indiana Power company to restrain extension of the city light plant’s services. Judge DeVoss wi’l rule on a de. sense demurrer. Bangs declared the injunction non-effective because of an apptal taken to tho state supreme court. The defense also claims that a $1,500 injunction bond filed by tho power company is not sufficient under Indiana law governing such cases. * Bangs spent 101 days in Huntington county jail last summer when he refused to post an appeal after his conviction on contempt charges for violation of a temporary inI junction obtained by the N.
