DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT

“Father Divine” Is Released On Bail New York, Apr. 23- KU.PJr—More than 5,000 half hysterical negro and white followers of Father Di vine crowded the streets about the criminal courts building today as the little negro who is “Hod" to his cult entered a plea of not guilty to charges that he feloniously assaulted a white man. More than 100 police kept the crowd moving. But they made no effort to cheek ecstatic cries of "peace, he's wonderful" when Father Divine was brought from police headquarters, where he had spent the night in a cell. It was believed to be the largest crowd ever to congregate about the old building. SENTENCE TWO P. 0. ROBBERS • LaCrosse Given 5 Years; Putman Given TwoYear Term Three years after they had robbed the post offices at Pleaeant Milk and Peterson. Malon XaCrosse, 39. of Duluth, Minnesota and Earl Putman, 42, of Ohio City, Ohio were sentenced to prison late yesterday afternoon by Judge Thomae W. Slick in United States district court in Fort Wayne. Putman, who offered a plea of nolo contendere when arraigned on the charges Wednesday morning on a charge of robbing the two post offices near here and one at Ontario La Grange county wan to serve two-year ternw on each charge. The sentences are to run concurrency. LaCrosse, whom a federal jury found guilty of robbing the Peterson and Pleasant Mills poet offices, wan given a five-year term on each charge, the sentences also to run concurrently. Postmasters at both placet) had previously identified the men as the ones who robbed their offices. Putman is now serving the fourth year -In the Columbus prison of a 10-25 year term for the armed robbery of a grocery in Ohio, while it k said that LaCrosse has ju«st completed serving a four-year term in Leavenworth for a poet office robbery. — o Native Os Decatur Dies In Michigan Friends here have received word of the death of Ollie Hudson. 53, a native of Decatur, at his home in Hillndale, Mich., Survivors include the widow and three children all at 'home; three sisters, Mrs. Mae Gander, Fort Wayne; Mrs. lona Patterson, San Francisco, Cal.; Mrs. Rachel David, Sturgis, Michigan four brothers ojhn of Detroit, Charles of Cadillac, Michigan; Jamee of Sturgis and Jacob of Jackeon, Mich. Funeral services and burial will take place Saturday at Hilledale. o WEATHER Increasing cloudiness tonight possibly showers extreme northwest portion, warmer tonight north and east; unsettled Saturday, showers probable, cooler central and southwest portions o LOCAL HOSPITAL IS KEPT ROSY County Hospital Overcrowded For Past Several Weeks The Adams county memorial hospital nearly reached a new high in number of patients, Wednesday, when 39 were registered. Forty-two ipersons were the most ever occupying the hospital in recent years. For the last several weeke it han been neceseary to p'ace some of the patients on the third floor in rooms formerly occupied by nurses, who are now living in private home# in the city. There are now only rooms left in the hospital for the three surgical and two general nurses, who are always at call. Before the use of the third floor, It was possible to handle only 29 adult patients and six children, even when the wards were- fully occupied. Miss Elizazibeth Pittman, superintendent of the institution, stated that she had *> een informed that hospitals in other cities are also overcrowded. It is believed that this is due partly to the improvement in economic conditions, permitting more .persons to afford hospital care and partly to the inability to find unemployed persons to work in private homes to take care of the patients.

. FORMULATE NEW PLAN TO SPEED 1 LEGISLATION t Four-Point Plan Propos- ’ ed To Speed Action In Congress ■ (Copyright 1937 by UP.) ( Washington. Apr. 23. — <U.R> — I Democratic congressional leaders I formulated a four point legislative plan today which, it was hoped, would hasten adjournment of congress and fulfill President Roosevelt's economy. Supreme Court, and government reorganization proposals. I The plan still was in the dis- ) eussion stage, but it had the ser ious consideration ot both senate and house leaders, an administra- > tion spokesman said. Its purpose was to adjourn congress by August 15 with the following measures passed: I. The Supreme Court enlarge- • ment program. ij 2. Mr. Roosevelt's recommenda- , | tion for reorganization of the gov-; . ernment establishment to increase k efficiency. ' 3. All appropriation bills. These measures would be passed as quickly as possible while White House economy pressure is strong, f 4. Wage and hour regulatory L legislation. In some quarters. t however, there was the possibility , that these bills might be delayed ,' until next session. ( Discarded would be numerous ( authorization bills endangering the ( president's budgetary plans. These I would include the Wagner housing bill, the Bankhead-Jones farm tenancy bill, the Harrison educational aid bill, and flood control ' and rivers and harbors projects. 1 Some of these, it was admitted, ' might be passed in drastically revised form, carrying comparative--1 i ly small appropriations. ■ j A proposed schedule for legisla- ' tion has reached the point at 1 which certain house leaders are 1 : prepared, if necessary, to expedite ’ the Supreme Court program by t. — t (CONTINUED ON PAGE SEVEN) 1 O—FRENCH QUINN . TALKS TO CLUR I ' Local Historian Speaks On Constitution To Rotarians French Quinn, Decatur attorney and historian, delivered an elo- . quent address on the “Constitu- , tion of the United States,” at the f weekly luncheon meeting of the Decatur Rotary club Thursday eveI ning at the Rice hotel. Mr. Quinn started his dicussion with the birth of Jesus Christ, stating that at the time Christ was born, 95 per cent of the earth's population was in slavery. Under the Savior’s teaching, the people I of the earth were taught that they i were all created equal. This fact of equal creation, the ! speaker said, was the basis upon • which the constitution ot the Unit- ' ed States was written. The divine inspiration of relig--1 ion in the drafting of the consti- ! tution was stressed by the speaks er. He related how the men, gathered in Philadelphia for the purpose of saving the young nation from ruin, had debated and dis- . cussed proposed drafts ot the document for three months. Unable to reach any agreement, George Washington, presiding officer, ordered the doors locked un- • til the issue was settled. He then i called on the members to bow in , silent prayer. At the conclusion > of this period ot meditation, mem - bers of the constitutional conven- : tion rose as one man and signed i the document which led to the de » velopment of the greatest nation i on earth. > Liberty under the constitution. I t ! the speaker asserted, is not dii vorced from religious ideals, it is s Identical. In closing, Mr. Quinn warned against any effort to change the constitution in a few brief weeks, i when the 52 men, the best Binds I in the nation, debated three months ' r before able to agree on the constitution. J. Fred Fruchte was chairman I of the program. ’ Commercial Club Guests At Party The members of the commercial j club of the Decatur high school were guests at a party held in the I school gymnasium last night. A | dance was held during the party.

CAMPAIGN ON TUBERCULOSIS Adams County t. b. Association Launches Campaign Today An "early diagnosis" campaign against tuberculosis was opened this morning by the Adams county tuberculosis association in its tight against the disease. Attractive pamphlets and posters, accurately describing the symptoms of the disease, were • circulated in all of the county schools in an effort To equip students with tlrtr knowledge neces- , sary to combat the affliction. With these pamphlets circulated, members of the association is- : sued an urgent appeal to all persons, who seemingly have developed any of the symptoms to irnnied- ■ lately consult the family physician for an early diagnosis. ' "Tuberculosis, if checked in the j early stages, can be cured," the association leaders emphatically ' stated, in making the appeal. Must common symptoms include j the victim tiring easily, toss of weight, indigestion, coughs that : "hang on.” Other symptoms indelude blood-streaked sputum, pleurI isy or pain in the chest. The campaign is termed by the • association the fore-runner of a ’ concerted drive against the dis- ; ease which shadows the lives of 100,000 young American men and women. About 12,000 in that age ■ group die of the disease yearly, sta- . tistics prove. ■ ■ —— o . ■ - Jonas Tritch Heads Class Os Masons J. C.

Only 36 Workers Oppose Agreement; 30 Injured As Cannery Employes And Police Battle. IN CALIFORNIA Oshawa, Ont., Apr. 23 — (U.K) — Employes of the General Motors of Canada assembly plant here voted today to accept the agreement ending their 15-day strike. The vote was announced aS 2.205 to accept the agreement and 36 against. The 3,700 employes will go back to work Monday. The strike was called on April 8 when company officials refused to recognize the United Automobile Workers’ of America union as an international union. The peace treaty was drawn up yesterday at a conference of provincial government, company and strikers' representatives. When the outcome of todays’ balloting in the local armory was announced, cheers reverberated through the auditorium. Strikers leaped to their feet, slapped each other on the back and roared satisfaction with the decision settling finally the strike. The agreement provided for recognition of the local union of the U. A. W. as an Oshawa union, and that the pact should run concurrently with an agreement between General Motors and the international union in the United States. The recognition clause of the agreement was subject to various interpretations as favoring each of the opposing factions. Premier Mitchell F Hepburn throughout the strike insisted on rebuffing the committee for industrial organization, of which the U. A. W. is an affiliate. Hugh Thompson, Canadian organizer forth- C. I. 0., said in Washington today that the agree ment did not mention the C. I. O. "because such agreements never do.” Terms of the agreement follow: 1. Hours: a 44-hour week, consisting of four nine-hour days during the first four days of the week, and one eight-hour day on the last day of the week (Friday.) 2. Wages: a minimum wage scale is established.
