BUOYANT TOIIS FELTTHROUGHOUT STOCKEXCHANGE Washington Advises Say Federal Reserve Authorities Scout Raise in Rates, The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK, March 28. —Washington advices that the Federal reserve authorities saw no reason for any immediate general advance in rediscount rates gave the general market a more buoyant tone at the opening today. This buoyancy was intensified by the Federal reserve’s monthly summary of trade conditions which cites continued business activity as evidenced by continued production, employment ;.nd retail and wholesale trade. First Hour Stocks continued to show a strong tone throughout the first hour with oils as the most buoyant of the groups. Steel stocks also gave a better account of themselves under leadership of U. S. Steei and Gulf States. While call money again renewed at 5% per cent, rates were expected to ease up toward the end of the week. Second Hour Assurance that directors of the local Federal reserve bank would not increase rediscount rates this week gave additional impetus to the rally in the late morning and pivotal stocks clung to their best levels on the current recovery. Cluett-Peabody made anew 1:>23 high and Studebaker showed unusual strength. Noon Hour Steel common reached anew high l on the recovery during the noon hour and the general list displayed renewed buoyancy under the impetus of short covering. Seen in retrospect, the speculative community realized ; how exaggerated its apprehension , over the money situation had been. I New York Central's maintenance of the regular 3 per cent dividend rate was no great surprise and the stock sold off only fractionally. Twenty active industrial stocks Tuesday averaged 103.03. up .67 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged i 87.71, t p .02 per cent.

Elliott, city engineer. A dam and causeway 2,660 feet iong would span the lowlands at lias point j and allow for an extension of Thirty I Eighth St. The boulevard would be I constructed on top of the dam with I only a bridge to span the .-plilw i.vs. i Thirty-Eighth St. would then tie in|to a complete boulevard system | around the lake, connecting with a ! boulevard on top of a dyke along the i west side of the canal on the east side : of the lake and a boulevard along th ' ; bluffs on tile vest side of the lake.

Without memorandums of any kind l,e testified for an hour and a half as J to cases handled in the Gary city court Iby him He repeated dates, court find- | ings, names of defendants, witnesses and verdicts without a second's hesitation, and time after time tie 'orrected David Standsbury, his lawyer, and ■ Homer Elliott, United States district | attorney, on some detail. The rapidity of his answers appar j ently confused Elliott, and the long, grilling cross-examination failed to materialize. Lucas left tlie stand after brief cross exaination. Denies Splitting Fees Lucas denied all charges of Govern- | nient witnesses that lie had split large fees with William M. Dunn', city | judge: Dwight M. Kinder, prosecuting • attorney, or anyone else. He admitted that on some occa- | sions he had told a defendant charged i with liquor law violation what ids i fine Would be before the case was j tried and had taken money for the fine before the hearing.

Lucas denied he was at police station at any time the day or night I Philip TJkman was arrested. He also testified that Judge Dunn could not have been there. TJkman, star Government witness, testified that lie was arrested, taken to police station, and. was beaten and blackjacked when he refused to sign u statement against. Federal prohi- | bltion agents.

BAR ASSOCIATIONS OF INDIANA OPEN PATRIOTIC ORIYE Radicalism Will Be Combated by Education in Principles of Government, By United Press ANDERSON, March 28. —“Truth is i the antidote for the poison which | radicalism is injecting into our body I politic. To know the history of our | country is to understand the fallacies of that radical preachment that is now being directed against our form of government. This is the slogan of tiie Indiana State Bar Association in its program for a campaign to offset the advances made by radicalism against established American forms of government. President C. C. Shirley has appointed a committee to lay down a program to be carried on throughout the State. The committee includes J. A. Y'an Osdol of Anderson, as chairman, Frank L. Littleton of Indianapolis; Alisson E. Stuart, Lafayette; Albert H. Cole of Peru and George W. Holman of Itoehester. The committee will direct a program of speech making before all kinds of organizations throughout the State, and is asking the help of newspapers. At this time, Van Osdol said, the committee is working with the State department of public instruction on a program of educational work in the schools. The committee believes that the schools can do more to protect fundamental American institutions than any other single agency.

Heard two in a big department store planning costumes for the bathing girls' revue on the beach. Which opens the bathing season here long fjlh i 'Nsjll i before it opens at northern resorts. I heard them talking on street cars, i in cases, in soda water fountains, at | cigar stands, at telegraph and telej phone desks, in hot-ls, and— Mankind and hi* habits were the ; great subject of conversation with them. But not nil feminine kind thus. Some matronly appearing women : wore explaining what they did with | baby when it had the colic. They i jumped from this to the cheapest meat : market in the city and they lambasted the high rents and they took a few shots at the poor gas supply i one cold morning. And oil! Oh. yes, the oil. Almost everywhere they were talking of that. It was about “spudding in,” and reaching the "cat) rock,” and "setting the strainer.” It was like the babble in a strange land, but 1 gained from it all there was a fluid that flowed from the earth In a score of fields adjacent to Houston and that many men were seeking Hie bag of gold at the end of the rain hew by this route in these parts of tin* world, with but a few finding it.

SUICIDE THEORY HIT BY STATE IN , FRITZ WN CASE Army Captain Declares He Was Merely Friend of Murdered Dancer, By United Press SAN DIEGO, Cal., March 28. Striking its last blow at the defense’s j suicide theory of the death of Frltzi Mann, the Slate today opened its case against Dr. Louis L. Jacobs, accused by a grand jury of the murder of the petite dancing girl. Through Coroner Cuyler C. Kelly, Claude Chase and other witnesses District Attorney Chester Kemply and his assistant, Guy Selleck sought to establish that the dead girl’s bands were carefully folded when her bocy was found in the sand at Torrey Pines beach Jan. 15. This was the first brought out by the prosecution in its effort to prove that, murder was committed. “Damned fool altruism,” Jacobs says, accounted for his interest in the attractive 20-year-old cabaret dancer, whose half-clad body was found on Torrey Pines beach Jan. 15. That the pretty dancer was the tin, of her own popularity is autopsy testimony. She had loved someone not wisely, but too well, recording to physicians. “I was a friend of the dead girl,” Jacobs told authorities. “She confilded in me and told me she was secretly married. "I want to do what I can to help clear up the mystery,” he added. APPEALS TO BE HEARD Forty-six appeals to Criminal Court of convictions in city court on blind tiger charges have been set by Judge James A. Collins for trial Thursday and Friday. "These are cases in which professional bondsmen are bail for the defendants.” said the judge. ”1 wanted to clear them off the docket as quickly as possible.” All the convictions were secured before the new liquor laws went into effect March 11. according to Claude Wor- ; ley. who is investigating the appeals to see if all the appellants are still in town.
