36 QUESTIONED IN EFFORT TO GET MR JURY Youthful Defendant’s Face Shows Hopefulness as ' He Awaits Trial. By Elilora Field Times Staff Correspondent DANVILLE, Ind., Jan. 19.—1f Gene Alger, 18, of 1710 E. Ohio St., Indianapolis, on trial for his life in the Hendricks Circuit Court for the murder of Trafßcman John J. Buchanan, Negro, realizes the enormity of the offense with which he is it is not written on his face, which, most of the time, fairly radiates the hopefulness of youth. He rarely slumps in his chair, his attitude being bright and interested. Only once, when the words “accused of murder” rang out loudly in the room did he exchange a half frightened glance with his mother who sits near him. With the thirty-sixth talesman in the jury box on the third day, attorneys held no hope for agreement before nightfall on twelve men to decide Alger's fate. Special Judge Edgar Blessing expected the regular panel of fourteen and the special panel of fifty to provide a jury. The defense objected to several of the twelve accepted by the StfTte, after the twelve men were turned over to defense counsel for examination. The youthfulness of the defendant entered into State's questioning this morning. Prospective jurors were asked if Alger's age would prevent them from voting the death penalty. Dramatic incidents occasionally shone forth throughout the monotony of a long day of questioning. A stir was caused by the reply of Charles Laymon, farmer, questioned by John T. Hume, a State’s attorney, as to his attitude toward capital punishment. “I’m opposed to it,” Replied Laymon, his voice ringing throughout the room. “This boy, a gentleman all his life, and this his first offense—l’m opposed to capital punishmen if applied to him.” Laymon, unable to take an impersonal view of the death sentence, was challenged by the State and excused. Scene Dramatic There was a dramatic tone in Hume's voice several times when he asked prospective jurors: “Do you believe that the Negro has an immortal soul and that he is entitled to the protection of the laW the same as if ho were a white man?” Each time this question was asked, some of the Negroes present bent forward, indicating unusual interest. The court room was about half filled, but it is expected that with the selection of a jury, spectators will fill the room. That the State is lining up to strongly combat the defense’s contention that the boy shot in self-de-fense is indicated in the persistent questions asked jurors as to their attitude on the law of self-defense. Over and over the question was asked by Hume: “Do you agree that a man can rightfully invoke that law only whence is without fault and is in the placCx where he ought to be in regard to his assailant?” Most of the jurors answered in the affirmative. Widow Friendly Mrs. Buchanan, wife of the slain traffieman, was present at the trial Tuesday. She disclaimed any thought of revenge against the youth. “I’d hate to see the boy sent to the electric chair,” she said. “That would give me two things to worry

MR. HARGRAVE, 78, WAS BED-RIDDEN—-NOW ENJOYS LIFE M*. A. .Hargrave of Anna, 111., says he was confined to his bed and room for five months and was almost convinced there was no chance for him. His report continues: "I was weak and very nervous, uncertain in ray walk, could not stand erect, would stagger unless braced with a cane, slept only two hours at a time, tired out In the morning, could only walk a short distance before sitting down. Now, after taking six boxes of ARIUM I feel much letter; am satisfied with the sleep. I .jet seven to eight hours during Ihe night.

SOLONS PROTEST J 6 PAY; PLAN TO FILEJUIT SOON Consultation to Be Held Today for Purpose of Determining Action. Indiana legislators today will accept under protest the $6 per diem pay-check from State Auditor L. S. Bowman and trust to court action to get the other $4, the remainder of the $lO per day salary which they voted themselves. The vote was almost unanimous in b<#th houses, when the bill was returned with a veto by Governor Jackson. The governor acted upon advice of Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom who ruled that to raise their pay was “unconstitutional.” A $lO pay scale was voted by the 1925 Legislature, effective in 1929. Members of both the Senate and House declared that the law called for immediate repeal of the $6 scale, and they had the same right as the first Legislature to vote on their own salaries and set them at whatever figure they deemed advisable. Some have resolved not to accept the $6. Those who do accept the $6 do so by retaining right of protest, and majority leaders are preparing to file for recovery in Marion County court and then, if necessary, take the matter up to the Supreme Court. Former Supreme Court Judge Louis Ewbank and the firm of Anderson, Rinier and Givan are expected to handle the legislator's case.

THE ANSWER COMES BACK ‘NO!’

Shall we continue a national policy which inny lead to war with Mexico? asked The Times in ballots which havo been printed upon the front page for several days. The answer is coming back in a thundering “no” from hundreds of Times readers —hundreds of young men, old men, mothers, wives and sisters. With the ballots come letters, in many instances. Here are excerpts from some of them. FRED S. THOMAS, Frankfort, Ind. —Conquest has been a breeder of nothing but disaster since history began and it is a lamentable fact indeed to note that our Government, apparently, is willing to

about. Although I think the boy should be punished, slaying as he did the wonderfully good man who was my husband, I believe the crime was not premeditated and was caused by extreme fear. If the death sentence is pronounced upon the boy, it will cause me great distress.” Mrs. Buchanan also expressed great sympathy for the mother of young Alger. "I’ve had no children,” she remarked, “but I can realize how heart-breaking it must be for those parents, who, striving to educate and help their boy forward, have had this terrible thing happen. The boy’s death could do no good and, althnught some persons may not understand my attitude, I have no revenge in my thoughts and I don’t want capital punishment for that youth." QUIZ ‘DANCING BANDIT’ Chicago Police Study Possible Link in “Butterfly” Murders. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 19.—The unexplained slayings of Dorothy King 'and Louise Lawson, Broadway “butterflies” killed by garroters in their New York apartments, were under investigation by Chicago police again today, following arrest of Robert Harford, an admitted "dancing bandit” of New York.

because, of course, nobody knew where poor wee Clowny was by now He'd been gone near an hour. Said Scouty, ‘‘Waiting here means naught. It’s more than likely he’s been caught. Let's all go forth and rescue him, if it's within our power.” They talked it over quite a bit, and then upon a good plan lift. "We’ll wait around until it’s dark,” said Coppy to the rest. “ 'Twould be too hard, in broad daylight to seek poor Clowny Tinymite.” And so they all agreed that dusky night-time would be best. They loafed and talked and played until the sun sank slowly o’er a hill, and then they saw the pale moon rise 'mid clouds just overhead. "Ah, now’s our time to stop our play, and journey softly on our way. I guess that we'll be safe, now, irf the darkness,” Scouty said. So, off they went, all In a bunch. And Carpy whispered, "I’ve a hunch that we had better shortly get down on our hands and knees. Sotne people’s eyes are very keen. We cannot tell, we may be seen. Now, everyone be quiet, now, and careful, If you please.” They crawled io where the Ice hut stood, and Scouty whispered, “This is good. We haven’t seen a soul, so we are safe as safe can be. No doubt wee Clowny’s in this place. At least it’s where his footprints trace I wonder If we have the nerve to crawl right in and see."

COUNTY TO ASK SETTLEMENT OF LUND QUESTION Anxious to Settle Dispute With Fairbanks-Morse Company. Marion County commissioners and council members are anxious to settle the controversy with FairbanksMorse Company, Twenty-First St. and Northwestern Ave., over ownership of one-seventh acre of land on the former county workhouse site on which there is a railroad spur, Clinton H. Givan, county attorney, said today. The company bought the remainder of the ground for $150,000 and wants possession of the railroad track, but county officials assert it was not included in the sale. Approves Stand “The commissioners are exactly right on their stand in the matter," Givan stated. “Possession of the spur is of great importance both to the county and the company. Givan said lie will continue vestigation of the legal side of matter before taking any action or submitting proposition for approval of Lire county officials. Recently Cassius L. Ilogle, county commissioner, stated he would agree to selling tlio tract for sl, provided the deal was handled legally. The county charges that records of sale of the main grounds to the company were tampered with after they were signed. City Loses Because of the delay in settling the controversy, Indianapolis has lost the contemplated pay roll increase. It was the plan of the com- > pany to erect the first unit of the expanded plant on the workhouse site. Much of the manufacturing that the company planned to do in the new structures, is now being sent out of Indianapolis at great expense, it is said. The company is remaining silent on this isssue and awaiting advance of the county on the matter.
