11. S. SUPREME COURTREFUSES MOONEY REVIEW . I Refuses To Review Conviction Os Famous Convict Washington, Oct. 10 — <U,R> — | The supreme court today refused I to review the conviction and im- | prisonment of Thomas J. Mooney in an action which appeared to close virtually the last avenue through which the famous convict might win his freedom in the courts. His attorney. John F. Finnerty, however, immediately obtained permission to renew a three-year-old application for an original writ of nalteas corpus. Institution of this new lega’ measure made It certain that the famous case will again receive technical consideration by the high court. The court’s refusal to review the Mooney conviction was an pounced in the court order lie' which unprecedently noted tha* Justices Hugo L. Black and Stan ley Reed dissented from the de cision. Immediately after the court'r order list was made public. Fin nerty received permission to re new an application for a writ o' habeas corpus to free Mooney. Hr was granted 20 days in which tr file briefs. The motion for an original writ was denied by the supreme court three years ago without prejudice because then the case had not been taken through state courts The petition denied by thf i court today was for a review o' the state court's dismissal of thr petition for habeas corpus advised by the high tribunal three yean ago. • The Mooney action topped court action on a long list of petition; filed with it over the sunnnet recess.

TROOPS GUARD CARDINAL FROM NAZI RIOTERS Crucifix, Prayer Books, Painting Os Madonna Burned Vienna, Oct. 10.— (U.R)i — Roman Catholics predicted today that a ( religious revival would sweep Aus- | tria as the result of nazi riots in which a crucifix, prayer books, and I a painting of the Madonna were burned. Already heavily Increased attendance had been noted at all Catholic church services, even though newspapers had published no reports of the riots and the news was circulated only by word of mouth. It was forecast that the first real indication of a surge of religious sentiment might be apparent in an [ increased attendance at school , where religious education is part of the program. Only a week ago ■ priests were compelled to read an i official decree announcing thit re--1 ligious education at schools was no longer compulsory. But yesterday. in all churches of the Vienna archdiocese a circular letter was read from Cardinal Innitzer, archbishop of Vienna and now storm . center of the religious controversy, appealing to’ parents to make their I children attend religious-education I schools. Many priests urged parents to make sure that their children als received religious educaI tion at home. Nazi authorities seemed to be i taking every precaution against a new outbreak against the Roman Catholic church among their followers. But there was some anxiety lest an unforeseen incident cause new violence. Thousands of defiant young nazis milled about the cathedral neighborhood yesterday. After last night's services. 100 boys in Hitler youth uniform, headed by flag bearers an da drum corps, marched past the cathedral singing (CONTINUED ON PAGE SIX) O OBJECTION TO ’ NEW ADDITION Total Os 985 Sign Remonstrance To Hospital Addition — A total of 985 names were signed to a remonstrance against the proposed improvement to the Adi atns County Memorial hospital, it 1 was announced today by Adams County Auditor John W.

KRICK-TYNDALL FUND DRIVE IS NEARER TOTAL Total of Cash And Pledges Goes Over $6,000 Mark Today "We won't let $3,776 stand In i the way of the improved Indus- ■ trial prosperity of Decatur and j the employment of 100 men in our community," was a new battle cry issued today by the committee in charge of the Krick & Tyndall Tile Mill reconstruction campaign. Collections by the 13 teams and special committees over the week end raised the total $752, it was reported to Herman Conter, assistant financial secretary of the drive. The total of cash and pledges, including the $2,000 pledged by the employees, is now $6,224.00. The goal set by the community is $10,000.00, or 10 per cent of the I estimated $100,000.00 reconstruc- | tion plans for the factory. Members of the committee said today they were encouraged with the reception given the project. Three payments made today were singled out as especially encouraging. the committee said. First, a check for SSOO was received fiom the Central Soya company and the McMillen industries, as 100 per cent payment of the pledge made l>y the concern. This pledge was made to be paid providing it was apparent the campaign would be a success, Payi ment of the pledge entails faith m the community’s achievement ' of its goal, the committee feels. Two Decatur ladies, who are ( entirely dependent upon their j earnings for a livelihood, unsolic- | ited, came into the First State Bank today and paid $1 each in ' cash. Both said they appreciated what Decatur and Decatur's success had meant to them in the past and would mean to them in the future. ! A special letter to prospects i was prepared today by a commiti tee composed of Roy Kalver and Charles Ehinger, setting out the facts in the proposed reconstruction program. They are to be I delivered Tuesday. Over the week-end. a large “barometer” was installed at the corner of Second and Madison streets, to show the daily progress of the drive. Some time this week a roll of honor is to be published of those concerns and individuals who have met their assessments in a manner satisfactory to the committee. o MEET TUESDAY All members of the general committee and all soliciting committees of the Krick-Tyn-dall re-employment fund, are asked to meet at the First State Bank at 7:30 p. m.

REMONSTRANCE TO TAX LEVY Remonstrance Is Filed Against County General Tax Rate A remonstrance has been filed against the county general tax rate, proposed for 1939, it was learned today from Adams County Auditor John W. Tyndall. The last date for filing remonstrances against proposed 1939 tax rates expired Saturday, which was 10 days after the final possible meeting date for the Adams county tax adjustment board. The county general fund propoeed levy as approved by the county council and the county tax adjustment board for 1939 is 48 cents, as compared to the 24 cent rate now in effect. The remonstrance did not apply to the county bond proposed rate of four cents for 1939, the present rate being the same amount. Neither does the remonstrance apply to the proposed county welfare of 14 cents for 1939. an increase of four cents over the existing rate. A hearing would have been conducted by the state tax board, whether or not the remonstrance was filed, due to the fact that the levies in several of the taxing units exceed the $1.25 and the s;' law. Those who signed the remonstrance are: Ralph S. Myers. Geneva, route one; Grover Romey, Geneva route one; Frank H. Heller, Berne, route one; George Rinigger, Bluffton, route four; O. V.

Guest speaker for the day was Rev. L. W. Stolte, D. D. of Dayton. Ohio, former pastor of the church. Dr. Stolte took for his morning text Mathew 9:36. "When Jesus saw the multitudes. He was moved with compassion on them; they were harraesed and dejected and bewildered, as sheep having no shepherd". The condition of the multitudes in the present day was described as being similar to their state in Jesus’ time, and the Son of God alone has the remedy for their needs. The Senior Choir furnished music for the morning service. Special soloist for both morning and evening services was Miss Margaret Lissner, soloist from the St. John’s Reformed Church, Fort Wayne. The afternoon service was featured by a number of musical numbers from nearby Reformed churches. Rev. O. L. Flesher, pastor of the Antioch church spoke on "Love, the supreme qualification for Christian service.” At the evening service Dr. Stolte spoke on “The Conquering Christ,” speaking from the 2nd Psalm: “Why do the heathen rage and the people imagine a vain thing?” When the rulers of the earth set themselves to stamp out Christianity they fall ultimately as did the nations of antiquity that tried to (CONTINUED ON PAGE FIVE) O—TEMPERATURE READINGS DEMOCRAT THERMOMETER 8:00a.m 58 2:00 p.m 82 10:00 a.m 67 3:00 p.m 86 Noon 72 WEATHER Fair tonight and Tuesday; somewhat warmer in eact and west and west-ecntral portions.

German Fuehrer Assails British And French Factions Opposed To Munich Treaty. CZECHS LOSE By Joe Alex Morris (Copyright 1938 by United Press) 1 Europe's peace rested on bay. • onets today. ’ In Germany, Fuehrer Adolf Hitler began a campaign to liquidate "marxls's and other state ene- • inies" from the newly occupied : Sudetenland, announced that Ger- ( many's defenses would be extendi ed and declared that the relch’x ■ only "real friend" was Italian Premier Benito Mussolini. . Hitler, while announcing plans for demobilization and asserting . that Germany was now strong enough for peaceful relations with her neighlMirs, bitterly assailed British and French sac- , tions "smacking of the Versailles treaty epoch”—including Winston Churchill, Anthony Eden and Alfred Duff Cooper, the former government ministers who have opposed acceptance of the Nazi ' peace terms. The British government, urgently seeking to consolidate peace ' on the basis of the Czech settlement. wm expected to speed up armaments as a result of tho Hitler declaration. Churchill, former chancellor of the exchequer, will reply to Hitler later this week in a radio speech which seme observers expected . to indicate whether the fiery dissident conservative might hope eventually to become prime minister at the head of a “stop Hit- . ler” movement. But Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain's chief immediate objective is solution of Mediterranean problems centering around international participation in the ’; Spanish civil war. To that end, negotiations aro continuing for complete withdrawal of Italian troops from the insurgent armies and for closing of the French border to loyalist war materials. In Moscow, a sudden burst of anger directed at Col. Charles A. Lindbergh on the basis of rumors published in London led to a significant statement by red aviation leaders that the soviets air fleet was as great and more efficient than the combined forces ot Germany and Japan. Two more Czech zones wern lost over the week end when it was agreed to permit Hungarian troops to occupy frontier towns in “symbolic” surrender of the Magyar minority to Budapest. Negotiations on final terms of the cession will continue, with greatest interest centered on lhe future of Ruthenia, at the eastermost tip of the republic. If Poland and Hungary win their demand that Ruthenia be ceded to Budapest the two nations will have a common frontier that; probably would not please Hitler ar fit into his eastward expansion plans. Mussolini, however, is backing the Polish-Hungarian proposals i and tile dispute has indicated tho strain that circumstances may (CONTINUED ON PAGE FIVE) NAME ELECTION BOARD MEMBERS Vote October 21 On Berne-Monroe Township School Merger The board members to serve during the special election October 21 on the proposed Berne-Monroa township school merger, were listed today by the members of the Berne school board, the Monroe township advisory board and trustee.
