SLOW MOVE ON BRIDGE IS COSTLY First Plans for Repair Called for Expenditure of $56,000. LEGAL TECHNICALITIES Now Work Will Cost City Taxpayers $70,000. Delay in repairing College Ave. .bridge has cost Indianapolis tax practically $14,000. ™ln October, 1926, the board of works passed a resolution asking for $56,000 with which to repair the bridge. No further action was taken until January, 1927, when bids were asked for the repair of the structure. The delay came in the handling of the matter from a legal standpoint, the board contending that city council would have to pass an appropriation ordinance before advertising for bids would be valid. Bids Returned Bids received by the board Jan. 31 were returned to bidders unopened, because it was held bids could not be received before bonds were issued. All previous action was rescinded by the board on Feb. 4, 1927. New plans and specifications were drawn and submitted to the works board on Feb. 7, taking into consideration the added damage done to the bridge. The stimated cost was set at $70,000, an increase of $14,000. City Engineer Chester C. Oberleas estimated that the additional damage had been done to the bridge by the elements. The board of works today was to decide whether to fight the council committee recommendation for the repair of College Ave. bridge instead of building anew span, Roy C. Shaneberger, president, declared today. The bridge which started to sink last Friday threatens to topple into the creek at any time, according to engineers. A special council committee, BoynJ. Moore, Walter R. Dorsett, Otis E. Bartholomew, Millard W. Ferguson and Austin H. Todd, decided in a caucus Tuesday to recommend the repair of the bridge with the gasoline tax fund. “Why not do the thing right while we are at it?” Shaneberger questioned. “If we repair the present bridge we will not be looking to the future. When the thoroughfare planning goes through, which it will in a few years, a bigger and wider bridge will have to be constructed then. Why not build it now and save money?” . James P. Tretton, Indianapolis Street Railway Company superintendent, declared he favored any plan that would open the bridge as soon as possible. If the council supports the plan of the special committee there will be a twenty-nine-day delay before the repair work can begin, according to City Attorney John K. Ruckelshaus. “If the council used the gasoline tax money, for the repair of the bridge, they are breaking the promise they made last year to appropriate all of it for street repair. And every one knows that the streets need repairing. The street repair fund will be exhausted April I and all work will stop If this money is used for the repair of the bridge,” Shaneberger pointed out. Love Finds a Way > but S2OO Is High The high cost ons mending a fractured romance weighed heavily on ehusettts Ave., today. She asked police tb recover $145 in cash and a coat valued at $55 posted with a fortune teller who promised to effect a reconciliation between the girl and her sweetheart and to return the nionye and coat Placing anew construction on the old adage that “absence makes the heart grow fonder,” the fortune moved coat, money, bag and baggage, Miss Roethele told police. f Denies U. 5., Mexico Approaching Break Bv United Press WASHINGTON, March 16.—Rumors of an imminent break between the United States and Mexico were countered by a State Department announcement today expressing hope that the disputes could be settled by negotiations.

Consternation probably would be spread through the ranks of Indiana politicians If these books could talk. Although the last Marion County grand jury returned no indictments after eleven weeks of investigation of the Stephenson political corruption charges, this picture shows they heard plenty of evidence. Bailiff William McKinney is shown with the twenty-three-volume transcript of what witnesses told the jurors. Now that the present grand jury has resumed the corruption probe it is McKinney’s task to guard the transcript and carry it to and from the jury room and the Criminal Court Vaults in the basement before and after each session of the jury.

BAPTIST PASTOR SAYS PROHIBITION IS FARCE ‘Christ Would Be Thrown in ,lail as Criminal Under Law/ Declares Evangelist at Conference.

“Present day prohibition is the biggest farce that ever hit this country. If Christ came to America today and turned water into wine He would be thrown into jail as a criminal. We ministers are wasting too much time, fighting the liquor traffic and upholding the Eighteenth amendment instead of preaching the doctrine of Jesus Christ.” These statements by Rev. A. P. AMERICANS WIN " WITHOUT FIRING Marines Force Chinese to Relinquish Ship. Bv United Press SHANGHAI, March 16.

May Indict Two on Stephenson Theory Bv Times Special ROCHESTER, Ind., March 16. — Acting on the theory that Glenn Butts and Chester Young are responsible for the death of Ray (Foxy) Flynn the same as D. C. Stephenson was for the death of Madge Oberholtzer, Prosecutor Fred McClurg today planned to ask Indictments of the pair on muider charges. Flynn was shot, the two men confessed, when the three tried to hold up a farmer. Butts and Young, it is charged, did not get medical attention for Flynn and he died.

Renn of North Vernon, Baptist evangelist, before the Indiana Baptist Pastors conference at the Second Baptist Church today, threw a furor the assembly and brought a score of protests. Reed Witness Rev. Renn, a former Klan speaker, was a witness before the Reed senatorial investigation committee last year and testified concerning Indiana politics. Following the meeting told of running for Congress during the last election from the Fourth congressional district and blamed his defeat upon the Anti-Saloon League. “Despite the fact that I spent several years fighting the liquor traffic, the Anti-Saloon League opposed me because I refused to fill out their questionnaire as any self-respecting candidate would do,” Rev. Renn declared. “In prohibition we are exalting a principle and losing sight of Christ,” Rev. Renn declared. Protest Attack Protesting forces were led by Rev. J. B. Bowman of South Bend. A committee composed of Rev. Bowman* D. G. Dunkin, Lafayette, and S. D. Huff, Peru, was named to frame a resolution to put the conference on record as solidly supporting prohibition. . The resolution was adopted. The Rev. F. A. Hayward, Indianapolis Federate Baptist Churches secretary said: / “The Rev. Renn has a right to hold his views if he believes them, but I believe the majority here think otherwise concerning prohibition." Several other ministers took the same stand. Drunken Women Following his attack on prohibition the ministers requested Rev. Renn to clarify his stand. He refused to rescind his statements regarding liquor law laxity, although he admitted that the' number of "drunken men I have seen lately has diminished.” Following the meeting Rev. Renn declared that while “I have seen fewer drunken men since prohibition than I formerly saw in one night, it is also true that I have seen more drunken women and more drunken youths of both sexes In one night since prohibition. than I saw in all the - days before prohibition put together.” LOVE POISON PLOT SEEN Woman’s Story Following Deaths of Two Children Causes Probe.

INQUIRY ON CHARGE OF CAR BRIBERY % V j Public Service Body Delays Action on Petition to Reinstate Strikers. WAGE REVISION ASKED \ Street Railway Company Seeks Dismissal. The motion of the Indianapolis . Street Railway Company to dismiss she petition of James Green, an em-' ploye, to reinstate some 400 employes who went out on strike in July, 1926, was taken under consideration today by the public service commission, while it investigated charges that associates of Green were "bought off.” “We want more light by which to determine the issue,” a commissioner stated. Heated argument featured the hearing Tuesday afternoon in the Indiana Senate Chamber on the petition of Green to reinstate his associates and readjust the wage scale and contract. Ellis Presides Commissioner Howell Ellis, who presided at the arbitration hearing, announced a decision will not be made for several days. The street railway'attorneys asked that the petlMon be dropped, charging Green had not brought it in "good faith,” as he had returned to work only two weeks before filing the plea for reinstatement with seniority rights of all the strikers. “More men would be here were it not for the fact that the Street Railway Company is lavish with ready cash,” charged Frank Baker, Green's attorney. Denied Charge Sylvester Spencer, one of the original petitioners for wage and contract revision testified he planned filing a petition before the State body but Superintendent James P. Tretton “advised him to think it over, that if I went through with this I could look elsewhere for work." "So I dropped it because I wanted to finish paying for my father's funeral,” said Spencer. Ralph Beach, another employe, denied he “received a cent” and said he withdrew his name on his own volition. Company attorneys announced a conference is being held with several employes regarding anew wage scale. CASE INVOLVING FORD OUTLINED Sapiro Counsel Opens Trial —Reed Wins Point.

TAX BILL’S ! VALIDITY QUESTIONED I State Commissioners Doubt. Legality of New Farm Relief Measure. MAY GO BEFORE COURTS Orders Reappraisement in 1928 on New Basis. Courts may be called upon to decide the legality of the section of the Lindley-Shalte-Johnsct Bill, , passed at the recent legislative which sets forth the basis 'for real estate reappraisal. The bill, known as the farm ’elief measure, has met with considerable disapproval from Chairman John J. Brown and members of the Indiana tax commission. Brown today conferred with President William H. Settle and other Indiana Farm Bureau Federation representatives in an effort to work out a program for making appraisals on the basis prescribed by the new law. The federation backed the bill. Start Work Commissioners this afternoon began to work out their plans. The bill provides that appraisals be based I on “true cash value,” determined by consideration of normal earning ca- ! paclty, voluntary sales in the vicin- | ity and speculative value. The farmj ers expect that under this plan their i appraisals will be lowered at least 25 per cent. The present method of appraisal is to base property values on fair market value. Criticism of the new method proposed in the bill was voiced by Brown as follows: “This law violates every fundamental principle of'equity. We will do the best we can under its provisions so far as rearranging our policy. Such a situation is surely hard to handle.” Commissioner Phillip Zoercher i pointed out that the title for {he new act merely amends Section 152 of the present tax laws. "Thts section deals entirely with the time for reappraisal and says nothing about the basis upon which it is to be made,” he declared. “I doubt whether the section of the bill providing the basis Is legal, since that Is a matter dealt with In Section 142 of the tax laws and has no business here.” May Go to Court He ir dicated that this matter might have Vto be thrashed out in the courts. The bill provides that unit ap- , praisals, on the new basis, may be made upon appeal by the tax board now and calls for a complete reappraisal of real estate in 1928. Senator Alonzo H. Lindley (Rep.). Kingman, one of the authors of the bill, has already pointed out that lowered appraisals will mean increased rates in order to meet expenditures. SOVIET RUSSIA ’ CLARIS ISLAND Raises Red Flag Over Land in Bering Straits. Bv United Press LENINGRAD, Russia, March 16. The red flag of Soviet Russia has been planted by an exploration party on Gerald Island, in the Arctic, near Bering Straits, and the Soviet Government has informed the world of its claim to sovereignty there. The expedition reported finding flags of other nations planted, on the island. Gerald Island, which lies close to American and Canadian soil, was claimed a few years ago by various nations and became an object of considerable international bickering. In 1924 the Soviet Government sent ! notes to all nations, by which It laid claim to islands and other land extending north from Siberia into the Arctic Ocean. So far as has been discovered, the Island is valuable now chiefly as a possible military and naval base in ' case of hostilities. It might, however, become again a bone of contention between nations if investigations, which will probably be undertaken soon, should disclose valuable mineral deposits. Lita Plans Early .
