PHONE PATRONS TO FIGHT BELL RATEINCREASE Union of Users May Go as Far as to Order Out Company’s Lines. The Telephone Patrons’ Union will fight to the last ditch the new telephone rates proposed by the Indiana Bell Telephone Company in their petition filed with the public service commission. T. Ernest Maholm. president of the union, announced today. A mass meeting has been called, the time and place to be announced later, of Indianapolis citizens, at which efforts to induce patrons of the company to have their phones removed will be made. Injunction proceedings pending in the Marion circuit court against the present rates as granted by the public service commission on Feb. ft, will not be heard in time to prevent the granting of the new increases, it Is declared, and for this reason the mass meeting has been called, to outline some plan of action against the Increase. -It is obvious that the public service commission is in sympathy with the phone company," said Mr. Maholm, "and It is just as obvious that the rates ssked for now will be granted, in order to cover up the void Increases allowed last February. -The only way the people of Indiauapolis can handle the situation Is to order their phones removed, as the people have done in other cities, and thus force the company to return to their old rates. “The mass meeting will be held as Quickly as possible, and definite action will be outlined, which will be directed against this latest gouge of the phoue company.” The increased rates asked by the petition would affect thirtv-fivc cities of the state, Including Indianapolis, and if granted, would boost rates on business phones in this city from the present rate of $7 per month to $lO. and residence phones on Individual lines would be raised to $4.50 instead of the prevailing price of $3.25. Cities affected by the proposed boost are Alexandria. Anderson, Auburn, Bloomington. Bogcstown, Bedford, Brooklyn. Bunker Hill, Crawfordsviilc, Culver. Cumberland. Elwood, Fairland, Frankfort. French Lick. Gas City. Granger. Greenwood. Indianapolis. Kendallrille. Lewisville, Manilla. Mishawaka. Muncie. New Carlisle, Newcastle. Osceola, Peru. Rome City. ShelUyville. Smith Valley, South Bend. Vincennes, Washington and Yorktown. By the terms of the petition, should the proposed rates be granted by the commission, individual business phones, unlimited, would cost $lO per month, an Increase of $3. with $1.50 per month charge for extension station. An individual business line, measured, ninety or less messages per month, would cost, under the new rate. $5. with a charge of? 1 for extension station. The petition asks for authority to reduce the commission on local message receipts, in excess of guarantee, in the business coin collectors, from forty per cent to twenty per cent. Unlimited residence phones under the new rate3 asked would cost $4.50, Instead of the present rate of $3.25. with a charge of $3.50 for a two party line, an Increase of $1.25 over the present party line rate. Private residence extension stations would lie charged at sl. an increase of 25 cents. In the measured residence service individual lines would cost $3. with a charge of 4 cents each for the next twenty messages after the first sixty, and 3 cents charge for all messages over eighty. Two party lines in this service would, under the new rate, cost $2.50, with a charge of 4 cents each for all over fifty messages. Rural business phones would cost $4 Instead of $2.75, as at present, and rural residence phones, under the new rate, would be $3 instead of $2. It is suggested In the i*etltion that the commission fix the date of effect a ,and continuance of the new rates asked. Officials of the company state the new rates are necessary m order that the utility may be able to meet present conditions. 6 Sentences Passed on 5 Defendants Mix sentences wer passed on five defendants today in the criminal court.

REAL ESTATE GOSSIP By REALTOR "AL” EVANS

All aboard for Kansas City, June 1. The live ones will all be there. One of our local landlords indignantly resented being called a second-story man. He said he worked the first and third stories just as hard as he did the second. Some of our contributors are busy on their "farms,” hence the shortage of ideas in the column. Why doesn’t the real estate board get behind the city planning campaign? The Kiwanis club certainly put It over in a hurry. There is a saying around town that the real estate board is no longer dependent upon numbers and is getting cholcy as to whom it accepts as new members. It’s a shame for the new members they haven’t always been cholcy. I know of two women real estate dealers who after careful consideration have, become cholcy about what organization they Join. According to past publicity the real estate board was strong for a city planning commission, but that organization seems to have changed its plan the last day or so. Or was it that they didn’t want to follow another civic organization in helping get such a commission? In that case the real estate board should have been first. Buy a nice little home In the country, Or else a “wee hoosle” In town. You don’t save a cent When paying out rent, Buy a home and cut the H. C. L. down. ‘BANDIT QUEEN’ ASKS FOR PARDON Sister of South Side Bank Robber Tires of Prison.

Miss Lewis has been serving a sen tence of from five to seven years for her part In a daring robbery of Mildred Gates of Dallas. Tex., and W. D. Otter of Chicago near Denver, Col., forcing the two to give up a high powered automobile In which they were riding Lewis, who died In the Topeka (Kas). Jail of Influenza, was assisted In the Indianapolis bank robbery by Roy Sherrill of Terre Haute, now serving a twenty-five-year sentence In the Kansas State prison, and "Denver" Dale Jones, another member of the Lewis gang, who robbed a mall train In Colorado, carrying away the government safe. The successful chase to apprehend the members of the I-cwls gang, following the Indianapolis bank robbery, affords one of the most exciting chapters In the annals of crime In this country. F. K. Miller, the Indiana manager of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency, with office* In Indianapolis, took a lead ing part In apprehending the entire Lewis gang. "Denver” Dale Jones and his wife were shot and killed In a revolver battle with the police In Los Angeles. Cal., four months after the Indlanapoll* bank robhery. I-ewts at the time of the bank robbery here was wanted In Kt. Louts on the charge of murdering two policemen, and bis two brothers are serving life sentences In a Missouri prison for these murders. DEBS BOLSHEVIK ‘STRONG AS EVER 9 His Answer to Notification of Fifth Nomination. ATLANTA. Ga , May 29. The strangest notification ceremony for any kind, for president of the United States, occurred at the federal prison here today when a committee of socialists told Eugene V. Debs he had been nominated for the fifth time. Deb* threw his arms about each member of the committee and, with a kiss upon the lips for each, declared he was happy beyond words. “I have always been a radical—never more so than now." Debs declared in hla speech of acceptance. "I have never been afraid of becoming too radical, but I have feared becoming conservative." lie quoted a speech before his Imprisonment for violation of the espionage act. In which he declared his sympathy with the Russian revolution. "I said I was a bolshevik and I meant It—and I mean It now." A member of the committee applauded. "Why, you are looking well,” exclaimed Dr. Madge Patton Stephens, Terre Haute, a member of the committee and a friend of the Debs family.

GOMPERS TALKS ALLEN TO DRAW Hot Word Bout Results in Industrial Law Debate. NEW YORK, May 21).- Although prominence In the news columns Is given in all of New York morning newspapers to the debate at Carnegie hall between Gov. Henry ,T. Allen of Kansas and Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, no paper ventured to drive a decision and no editorial comment Is made. A consensus o? reports Indicates that the debaters dealt In generalities rather than upon any specific Issue. There were no judges and no official decision was given. The discussion centered chiefly about the right-of workers to strike, President Gompers insisting that such a light Is inalienable and Gov. Allen advocating the right of the state to pass laws to protect the public from the effects of strikes. President Gompers declared the Kansas industrial relations law Infringed upon the privilege of the Individual to stop work while Gov. Allen declared the law simply "takes away from Mr. Gompers the divine right to order him to quit work.” Toward the close the debate became somewhat acrimonious and the crowd frequently interrupted the speakers with partisan demonstrations.

POLITICAL WASHINGTON PACKS ITS TRUNK WASHINGTON, May 29—The republican national committee headquarters here have been shipped to Chicago for the national convention, bag and baggage. and the work of shifting the center of democratic activities to San Francisco Is well under way.

ANOTHER LOSES HIS CITIZENSHIP Court Orders Vincennes Man’s Papers Cancelled. Joseph Burkhardt of Vincennes, sec-retary-treasurer of the German No. 25 local of the communist party of America, Is no longer a citizen of the United States. Following a hearing In federal court yesterday afternoon Judge A. B. Anderson found that Burkhardt had obtained his naturalization papers through fraud and deceit, and that he was an enemy to the government of this country and ordered the cancellation of his certificate of citizenship.’ Burkhardt was arrested last January by officials of the department of Justice, when nation-wide raids were being made or. the communists workers, but was released when he was found to be a citizen. Harry R. Lewis, a Vincennes attorney, vho appeared for Burkhardt, said that Burkhardt wil! not make an attempt to file an appeal in the circuit court of appeals, but will abide by whatever disposition is made of his case without any opposition. Lewis said that Burkhardt had told him that when he came to this county in 1910 that he burned all bridges he crossed in Germany and that he came with the intentions of becoming a good citizen. Burkhardt, in his testimony, which was given in such bad English that the court could hardly understand what he meant, declared he would have nothing more to do with the communist party when he found what It meant. The charter of German No. 25, local of Vincennes, sent from the headquarters of the party at Chicago, was found in the home of another man by a special agent of the government, but the wrapper In which the charter came was mutilated in an attempt to scratch the name of Burkhardt. to whom it had been sent through the mails, according to the testimony.
