(UP) — Tests showed today that some hogs in a pen of 123 at the Indianapolis stockyards were infected with vesicular exanthema.

Jones, federal inspector in .change at the yards, reported the’ positive results and said the pens would-have to be cleaned before a ban’ oa swine trading could be lifted. ’ / - \ ' i - •' 1 1 k ■ He exoected., however, the ban might be lifted within. 24 tantra and the market may be opened again Wednesday. ’ d It was the second time the 30acre hog yard was forced to -suspend operations until it can be scraped and dtainfected. The last cleanup required nearly a week. But Jones said the disease was "not as bad this time” and the cleaning job would take lees tint*. Meanwhile, fethte officials considered clamping a» embargo on some- out-of-state swine shipments.

Says FBI Exists On Its Own Merit Hoover Secretary Gives Interview WASHINGTON, UP —Your federal bureau of investigation, said the pleasant little lady, exists on its own merit —plus some luck and help from the American people. The lady was Helen W. Gandy, and she ought to know. Miss Gandy is J. Edgar Hodver’s secretary and she’s been around the FBI longer than the chief.- ' “Thu bureau has merit," she fold me during an interview, "'because the emphasis is on career. The agents and inspectors and tly? rest of the help come hdre because they want to, and after they make ihe grade thdy generally stick around." ' A lot of the “luck" in running down criminals is planned luck, for every arrest mapped well in advance. “The American people are important in our scheme, too,” she said. “You’d be surprised what response we get w-hen we put out a wanted’ list.” Long-time personnel populate headquarters in room 5633 in- the department of justice building. Miss Gandy herself sports a diamond decked 30-year pin, although she’s been holding fort longer than that. She recently was honored by her fellQw workers for her long, falfhful service. She came here to see her sister and brother-in-law in 1918, and like, the man whojeame to dinner, stuck around awhile, tax July, 1918 she learned there was a vacancy at * the predecessor to the present bureau and accepted a job as a messenger. ' \ ;

In 1924, attorney general Harlan F. Stone, who later (became chief justice of the United States, appointed J. Edgar Hoover, then 29, to be director of the reorganized federal bureau of investigation. Miss Ghndy, who admits to 56, joined his staff as secretary. The clock at the bureau means nothing, so far as work goes. Miss Gandy shows at 8:30 and is lucky slie turns off the lights by 7:30 P-m. 4 a

"When a big case is working,” she sdid, “everything has to qlear through headquarters. We have to watch every development, no matter where the agents are about to inake an arrest. We send out for our meals and often have to grab a nap on the conches. Many’s the time the entire headquarters stiff has been on the jeb for three days or more, relief.” The lovely Helen Gandy has watched progress in most of the big cases of hfer time. She recalls the (Lindbergh kidnapiag, and the run-down of John Dillinger, who: was mowed dotwn by the FBI outride. a Northside neighborhood theater in Chicago in 1934. ' ■> “One erf the hardest ones, though,” she said, “was the capture of Alvin Karpis in New Orleans. ’Creepy,’ as he was called had killed a G-man. I got word that he had been spotted. Mr. Hoover u-as in New York and I called him. He flew to New Orleans immediately. I was scared, because I was one of three persons at headquarters who knew the chief had gone down. Mr. Hoover , captured the bandit himself.” The staff was on the alert for over threb days of that time, too. i “We didn’t sleep. W’e ate little,” | she said. " » Miss Gandy loved her job then. > She still does. Democrat Want Ads Bring Results ,
