The official news agency, after carrying only fragmentary comments on the outbreaks, issued the following communique at noon: “The death of a young German diplomat at Paris caused extraordinary indication throughout Germany in view ot the criminal provocation by international Jewry. “Spontaneous antl-Jewish demonstrations occurred in countless towns The populations set fire to Jewish synagogues in most towns. The fire brigade in many cases was only able to protect neighboring buildings. In many cities in the reich, windows of Jewish shops were smashed and Jewish shops were occasionallyset afire. “Owing to the extraordinary excitement among the population, merchandise contained in shops was partly destroyed. “In Berlin, Jewish shops in the Kurfurstendam and other districts were destroyed. “Owners of Jewish shops in many towns were taken into custody for their own protection." A crowd of several hundred stood in mid-morning watching a synagogue in the Kurfurstendam burning. The building was afire in several places and the roof had collapsed. Crowds stood in front of wreck-

MANY CHANGES (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) ed with the electric utility for more than 40 years. He has grown up with the business and is a faithful public servant. He has been superintendent for the past 25 years. He may be reappointed. Names mentioned with the post are Herman "Red" Lankenau, Dick Burdge and others. Friends ot Mr. Mylott are seeking to have him reappointed. Frank Burns, chief engineer, will probably be reappointed. He was named to the post following the death of Andy Foos in 1935. He is an efficient engineer and the plant is going strong. More than 14,000,000 kilowatts of power will have been produced this year, according to Mr. Burns' record. Mayor Holthouse permitted the department heads to hire their own work crews. No changes were I made when Mayor Holthouse took I office, because of politics. The I same engineers, firemen and assist- ' ants are still on the job at the ' power plant as when Mayor Holtj house took office. The names of Earl Adams, Ferd I L. Litterer and D. Burdette Custer I have been mentioned as possible successors of Mr. DeVoss as city attorney. The office pays SSOO from the civil city, fixed by law, plus S4BO a year from the utilities. Roy Chilcote, a city policeman, I has been mentioned as a possibili ity for the post of chief of police. Chilcote was appointed to succeed I Floyd Hunter, who resigned. A I new man may be appointed to the police force, who might be named I chief. Homer Lower is being I mentioned as a possibility in the I event a new man is named. | Walter Johnson is slated for a I place in the city administration, it lis rumored. He may be named to an office job in the city hall, as I head of the water department to succeed Charles Brodbeck, or to some other post. Brodbeck may be reappointed, however. I A new fire chief may be named to succeed Chief Robenold. The job pays $l5O a year. No speculation has been heard on the health j board appointments, although it is known a few doctors would like i to be named to the board Lawrence Green has been mentioned as a possibility to succeed Ralph Roop as street commissioner or civil works commissioner. He is not an engineer and the pos

could not be combined with the city engineer's office. The combined salary of the civil works commissioner and city engineer is $2,400. In the budget for next year only SI,BOO Is appropriated toward the total salary, S6OO to be paid by the utilities. The law provides that where cities own and operate municipal plants, they can pay up to S6OO a year toward the city engineer's salary. Since Mr. Roop was a registered engineer he could draw the S6OO from the utility and SI,BOO from the civil city as civil works commissioner. The office of civil works commissioner 1 may he abolished and the single ! office of street commissioner established, the SI,BOO a year salary be-1 Ing the limit of compensation. It is not known what changes 1 will be made in the auditing, bookkeeping and cashier departments of the utilities at the city hall. Miss McKean is an experienced auditor and compiles all monthly and annual statements. Herman Knapke is an assistant bookkeeper and collector. Mrs. Ada Martin, present clerktreasurer, whose term expires January 1, may be named to a desk in the office, it is rumored along the street. The bookkeeping and auditing department is an important part of the city's business. The two departments, exclusive of the civil city, which is handled by the clerktreasurer, will do from $250,000 to $275,000 worth of business a year. This year will break all former records. The electric utility will exceed $225,000 worth of business and the water department will have sales of about $35,000. More than 4,000 accounts are kept in tlTe departments. Stret workers, truck drivers and other employes will have to be named. Besides the regular firemen and engineers at the city plant, assistants and laborers are employed there during the busness rush. Ervin Elzey was named by the present mayor as gardener at the power plant grounds and has been keeping the place looking good. The electric department employs a work and constrution crew from six to 12 men, depending on the need. Four men are employed in the street department. The construction work on streets was carried on by WPA crews, eliminating the expense from the city department. Three full time employes are employed in the water department crew. A janitor at the city hall comes under the mayor's appointments. Since the Republicans did not announce a program it is not known what policy or set-up of departments will be made. Operation of the municipal utilities will be an important policy to determine and future improvements at the plant must be determined. The plant is running at capacity this year. o~ —— ——— DEMOCRAT SENATOR (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) 71 race was settled today when with only 20 precincts missing, j Noble J Johnson of Terre Haute ! was lea.ling congresswoman Viri ginla Jenckes. There was some talk of the Democrats demanding a recount. Returns from other offices on the state ticket were so incomplete and inconclusive due to the intense interest in the senatorial race, that the results may not be known until the state caJivassing board meets here, to tally the i election officially in three weeks. But meanwhile, Willis and his i campaign manager, Noel C. Neal may ask recount Indianapolis, Nov. 10. —(U.RJ —Raymond E. Willis, defeated Republican candidate tor U. S. senator, said today that “in the end the United States may be called upon to decide the senate race in Indiana.” Reached here for comment on his defeat by Sen. Van Nuys mi the basis of unofficial returns, Willis said: “I won’t concede defeat. We may demand a recount in Vigo county and possibly several other Indiana counties." of Noblesville, conferred here today on the possibility of demanding a recount in several counties in the senate race. Republican leaders headed by Arch N. Bobitt. state chairman, watched over the vote counting to prevent any irregularities. Their alertness was due to the tact that counting of the vote in this Democratic stronghold was unusually slow, even though local Republican officials said that they had been unable to detect anything illegal about the count. National Republican Chairman John Hamilton assured Bobbitt that he would stand behind Indiana Republicans in any investigation they cared to press in the interests of a fair count of the vote, particularly in those Democratic areas where the tallying of the vote for senator and congressman was delayed.

Police thought it was a gunshot and searched everyone present for firearm* In the ensuing panic.. Despite the imminent “photofinish" In the senate race which makes Van Nuys’ election look probable, the Republicans today weie highly gleeful at what to them was a tremendous victory over the gigantic Democratic statehouse macniue. They jubilantly surveyed: 1. Election of seven ot Indiana's 12 congressmen. 2. Gains in the house ot the state legislature which finally may bring them up to even strength with the Democrats. 3.
