SCRIPPS-HOWARD

Welcome, Brothers Finally, even the Star has discovered that the city manager system of government offers relief to Indianapolis and urges its readers to vote for the change on June 21. The Star is the last of the newspapers of this city to get into line with the movement started by The Times more than two years ago. The News got in step a little more quickly. It changed from a policy of opposition to one of support about three weeks ago, when it became apparent that the people of this city would vote overwhelmingly for it. It is a matter of some pride to The Times that the cause it inaugurated now has the support of the other newspapers. When The Times first suggested to the people of this city that the city manager system would save the taxpayers from the high cost of politics and the reputation of the city from repeated scandals, there was no organized group to take up that suggestion. But the people were convinced and months later the committee which finally presented the petition for the election was formed by those who wanted to rescue Indianapolis. During these months The Times has repeatedly called attention to the merits of this system. The Times was on guard when the politicians went to the Legislature to protect Mayor Duvall in his job for another two years. It alone called attention to the conspiracy to take away from the people their rights to this government immediately. Unfortunately the Legislature was trading with the local machine and Duvall secured the legislative annulment of that part of his contract with the people which was written into the laws in effect when he sought office. He was one of the first to recognize that the movement which started with The Times had reached the proportions of a city wide revolt. Now the other newspapers recognize what Duvall feared. They, too, have come to the conclusion that the people of this city want the most modern system of government. They understand, as he understood, that the people have made up their minds to put the welfare of the city above the demands of the politicians. First The Times, then the News and now the Star. That is the history. And to this movement rr ’ v .n /S. welcomes its tardy brothers. Other Disasters Coming The year 1928 probably will witness some great natural catastrophe in the United States. Perhaps another flood, perhaps a hurricane or tornado. Last year there was the Florida storm with its toll of nearly 300 lives. The year before there was the tornado that swept through Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. The year before that, the hurricane that cut a devastating path through northern Ohio. Death lists are likely to grow greater in future years, rather than less. One hundred years ago, on this continent, terrific storms spent themselves in the wilderness. Now, wherever they strike, they find human prey. The Midlands, where once were great unpopulated forests, are now the homes of teeming millions, the vanguard of even more millions to come. A way to avoid, or at least to minimize the damage au.. the Mississippi and other rivers in flood time may be found. But no way to stay the storms has yet even been conceived. They will continue to strike, the only question being where and when. Facing this fact, would it not be possible for the American people, through Congress, to meet this never-ending threat half way? Instead of contemplating each new attack of nature with bewilderment, could we not set up machinery to handle it with energy and efficiency the moment it arrives? Federal aid to Mississippi victims was delayed by the lack of Federal funds. The highly competent Red Cross pitched into its work of rescue with its usual dispatch, but a large part of its task was that of raising the funds with which to do its work. If we can’t do more we might at least provide a continuing emergency fund to meet the emergencies that we now know are certain to rise. The absurdity of our Government having to confess that it didn’t have the money in hand to meet the calls from the Mississippi valley is one thing that should shame this great, wealthy Nation. Congress would have been quick to provide the money, of course, but Congress was not in session and the President could not see his way clear to call Congress. Another great national disaster might come with Congress absent from Washington and another President unwilling to order a special session. Dis-, aster funds under one heading or another should be at the disposal of the President for his instant use. Navy fliers can take up women friends and relatives now, says Secretary Wilbur. The secretary at last has solved that time-honored mother-in-law problem.

To the Editor of The Times: We doubtless all remember the great and good results promised by fanatics prior to the adoption of prohibition by the State and Nation. Jails and State prisons were to become roosting places for bats and owls. There would be no further need of almshouses. Drunkenness would thereafter be unknown. Taxes would be reduced at least one-half. Husbands would no more abuse their families. Crime would be obliterated. Everybody would become happy and prosperous, and the millennium would be just in sight. Well, for several years we have had the only kind of “prohibition” ■we ever will enjoy. How about the results? Can anyone put his finger on a single promise that has been or is being fulfilled? We still have jails in our midst and they are more crowded'' with criminals than ever before. Recently we built anew State prison at a cost of several million dollars, because the old one was too small to

hold the convicts after “prohibition” struck us. Almshouses are still in use and there is no decrease in the number of their inmates. Taxes have more than doubled in the last few years, and the end is not yet. Liars, thieves, perjurers, bootleggers, drunkards,, bandits and murderers have become so numerous that life and property are not safe anywhere. Vindictive fanatic® are in the saddle. Shumaker has given us a law making it a crime for a citizen to save the life or the lives of his family. Our Governor and Attorney General both are lawbreakers under this contemptible thing. They are bidding Shumaker and his i snoopers stout defiance. They are daring them to bring this idiotic law to a test and the people of our State are more than anxious to get a whack at this senseless thing emanating from Shumaker. SMITH ASKSEN, 805 E. Washington St., Indianapolis.

While a King Lies Dying King Ferdinand of Roumania, better known in this country as Queen Marie’s husband, is once more reported at death’s door. As was the famous case of Mark Twain, the news may prove exaggerated. In the last two or three years he has been reported dead more times than the late Emperor Menelik, for a long time the world’s royal champion expires We hope King Ferdinand will live to deny his demise many, many more times to come, but he himself seems to feel that his days are numbered would now seem apparent. Roumania, his beloved country, is in a bad way. It is torn by internal dissension and menaced from without. Carol, exiled son and heir, is reported ready to attempt a coup to regain the crown lost by loving not wisely, but too well—and too often—while Soviet Russia is believed to be awaiting only an opportune moment to seize Bessarabia, once hers, but now under the Roumanian flag. Who would rule his country in the event of his death, King Ferdinand does not know. A regency of three has been provided for if the king dies before the five-year-old Prince Michael, son of the absent Crown Prince Carol, reaches the age of 18. But Roumania reeks with intrigue and a lot can happen in thirteen years. Aware of this, the king wishes to do what he can to make the dynasty more secure if he passes on. Accordingly King Ferdinand has asked General Averescu, premier, to resign to make way for whpt the French would call a cabinet, or council of “the sacred union.” That is to say a coalition cabinet in which leaders of all the parties would serve. Which indicates Ferdinand is more the king and less just Queen Marie's husband than many people suspect. Averescu is not a strong man and his party has only seven seats in the chamber. In fact he is generally regarded as former Premier Bratiano's puppet, put in power when Bratiano himself had to resign after serving his constitutional term of office. Doubtlessly King Ferdinand hopes by this move [ to prevent trouble after he is gone. He probably; thinks that there's safety in numbers—that with the 1 leaders of all the political factions united in a single “national council,” there will be less chance for skullduggery than if one clique has all its own way. The king knows Bratiano, Queen Marie and her favorite, Prince Stirbey, form an all-powerful triumvirate in Roumania; that there are rumors that Prince Carol may lead a revolution; that the regency which is to follow his death is menaced; and of a dozen other perils. He would forestall them, insofar as he may, before the Grim Reaper cuts him down. King Ferdinand is a stronger man than people give him credit for being. Our respect for him grows as we watch him on his deathbed, his face distorted by the hellish agony of an incurable disease, patiently doing what he can for his country as death closes in. ‘ Punishment and the Purse The standard plan of dispensing justice is to make the punishment fit the crime. Now Sweden offers an amendment to this procedure by proposing to make the punishment fit thJ purse. According to press dispatches, fines for offenses ' against the law of Sweden are to be graduated ac- I cording to the ability of the offender to pay. And ! to aid those who are abnormally hard up when fines are assessed a partial payment plan will be arranged. The argument __advanced by the Swedish Ministry of Justice is that a standard fine, instead of resulting in justice, causes rank discrimination. A fine which to a wealthy man is a mere trifle is a tre- 1 mendous burden to a poor man. It sounds like a reasonable argument. We're broad-minded on the subject, however, and would welcome a letter from some recognized leader in the bootlegging profession outlining the other side of the argument. You’ll know it’s summer some evening when you come home to the aroma of boiling tomato catsup.

Law and Justice by Dexter M. Keezer

A man bought an automobile. After he had driven It for several months it was stolen. The insurance company, in making a search for it, discovered that an automobile bearing the same number as owned by a man in another State who had purchased it from a dealer and whose rightful ownership was not questioned. From this the insurance company concluded that the missing car was a stolen car upon which the number had been changed. On that ground it refused to pay the insurance. The man whose car was missing said that he had purchased it in good faith, without any suspicion that it might have been stolen, and that he was entitled to the insurance. HOW WOULD YOU DECIDE THIS CASE? The actual decision: The Supreme Court of the State of Washington decided that the man was entitled to the insurance. It said that he had bought the car in good faith and had the title to it and the right of ownership against all except the original owner. Consequently, in the absence of both the car and the original owner, it was held he could collect the insurance.

To the Editor: As to the stand Mr. Gilliom has taken and the way your paper has kept the public advised concerning the course he and Governor Jackson had to pursue to obtain whisky for their children and wife when their condition was hopeless without it, according to advice of their doctors, it shows conclusively what can be forced on the public when a few politicians fear to do their will and duty, because of men like Shumaker and the Anti-Saloon League. This should be a lesson as it now stands. The league has no defense whatever with the public, as they are all of one opinion. They would have done just as Gilliom and Jackson did. In case of pneumonia, I would not call a doctor who disapproved of whisky in case it became necessary, and would be prepared with the medicine. Mr. Gilliom is to be congratulated by all.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

TRACY SAYS: Those Who Make Fortunes Are More Oft to Be Sneered at Than Applauded.

By M. E. Tracy I write from New York at midnight and just as the United Press report that Chamberlin and Levine have flown low over Dortmund, one of them shouting “On to Berlin." That is enough to give their flight an imperishable place in the annals of aviation. Wonder Flight All day Sunday, millions followed their course by bulletins from midocean. now from a town in England, now from the island of Guernsey, now from Normandy and now from the Rhineland. The wonder of it all is stupefying. Reality has outstripped romance. The modern world is doing things that the ancient world could not dream. We poor humans are being bound together not only by a mechanism of wings, wire and radio waves but more effectually still by the spirit growing out of it. Twice within the month Americans have ridden the wind to Europe and twice has Europe made ready to greet them with loud acclaim. Who can doubt that such things make for peace? The Heroes Chamberlin was the pilot, of course, and as such goes to take his place among the immortal daredevils of the world, but it was Levine who put romance into this flight— Levine, the money maker, the good angel, the man who wrote the checks for the advertising there was in it, as some folks have insinuated No one suspected that Levine had such a thing in mind, much less that he would do it. Even his wife was caught off guard and fainted when the truth dawned on her, while his lawyer, who had drawn up a will for him less than forty-eight hours before, was led to believe that he contemplated no more hazardous venture than to take ship for Europe. Mistake We Make Levine suffers from the reputation that seems to go with success in business. One of the strangest aspects of this age is that men who do so much to make it are rarely regarded as having noble qualities. In the age of superstition, the priest was accounted great simply because he was priest, and in the age of militarism, the soldier got his full share of glory simply because he was a soldier, but in this age of commerce and industry those who make fortunes are more apt to be sneered at than applauded simply because they make fortunes. Levine's Life Why did Levine do it? everybody By the same token, why shouldn’t he? Where is the inconsistency with his entire career. What has he shown throughout his life more vividly than courage, independence and imagination? At 18 he went into business for himself, and at 30 he is said to possess a fortune of $5,000,000. It takes something more than a money-grubbing disposition to account for that, especially if a man starts out with no greater stock in trade than a grammar school education. Others Helped If Levine deserves honorable mention, so does Bellanca, and all the other ingenious minds who have contributed to perfect the airplane. When all is said and done, these flying feats are distinctly a triumph of the inventor. We are not dealing with one-man exploits any more, though it sometimes seems that way from the distribution of honors. Not only have hundreds of men died, but thousands have toiled vainly and gone to their graves broken-hearted and unknown that humanity might enjoy the victories of today. Science of Humanity Time was when the pioneer could paddle forth in a boat of his own contriving, or enter the wilderness with little more equipment than his bare hands. Time was when men could conceive and carry out their projects practically alone and could justly claim all the resultant honors for themselves. Such times belong to a dead and so. gotten era. We are now dealing with accumulated knowledge as it can be applied by many minds in cooperation, with the refined instruments of mass production and mass intelligence. Lindbergh, Rodgers, Byrd, Chamberlin and all the rest who have glorified the past with their examples of heroism or who may glorify the future, must share credit with a multitude of discoverers, Inventors and associates too numerous to count. Poetry may be of the individual, but science is of humanity.

Cooperation No wonder the world is thrilled, though in a bewildered subconscious way. Here is a cause to intrigue us all, regardless of race, creed or nationality, a cause that promises more for accord than dissension through a greater degree of dependence of men on each other which it imposes. If it required cooperation to produce the instrumentalities that make these flights possible, it. will require vastly more to make them commercially practical. Science is not only of humanity, but for humanity.

Even With Boxing Gloves on Her Hands Clara Bow Is Ve?y Much the Grand Lady in New Comedy 1 By Walter D. Hickmar

They do say that clothes make the lady, but even when Clara Bow wears boxing gloves on her hands and a fightin’ suit, she is very much the grand lady. The boxin’ gloves that adorn the hands of pretty Clara are not evil looking ones, because they are

white as snow. Now, please no not become alarmed because Clara does not become a knockout artist. She uses the gloves in a novelty number in a cabaret scene in “Rough House • Rosie.’ She carries in this “Rosie” movie that same speedy personality whi c h made “It” such a knockout. Rosie has her fortune told at an amuse-

. ...

Clara Bow

ment park and she learns that she can dance, that she will marry a famous man and that she will be a lady. And, above everything, Rosie wanted to be a lady grand. Rosie, up to the time she started to be a “lady,” had a prize fighter and his manager for her pals, but a lady must not associate with such peapie because they do not speak good English nor do they give their girl friends orchids. But dear little Rosie found out that certain alleged ladies in certain society sets act very like anything but a lady. Ar.d so Rosie rushes back to her “pug" hero just in time to prevent him from being knocked out in the ring. And so Rosie learns that a prize fighter can be a real gentleman, after all. Into this little story Miss Bow brings all of her cute personality, bobbed hair and her cunning facial expressions. When you see her as Rosie, you will agree with me that Clara is about the cutest thing on the screen today. This girl certainly has arrived among the stars in a short time. Her support is right; direction honest and human; photography excellent and a corking good little story. Earl Gordon, organist, actually forced me to sing yesterday afternoon at the Apollo during his “Singing School” stunt. By the use of clever slides and tunes that are well known, Gordon forced everybody in the audience to join his school. My voice may be as sweet as garlic, one of the slides intimates, but I sang just the same. Here is a corking good stunt. Bill includes a Buster Brown comedy and the Apollo Merrymakers under the direction of Dick Kent. At the Apollo all week.

A WISE DIRECTOR KNEW lIIS "BABE” THIS TIME i Babe Ruth is known as the “home run Babe” on the diamond. Meaning that Babe Ruth Is one of the best known and most important people who plays professional baseball. As baseball players with box office charm as well as young college icemen who turn out to be football

stars go into the movies, it was to be expected that the famous “Babe” would land on the screen. The director of “Babe” was wise enough to remember that this man was first and above all a great base ball player. So he decided to let the "Babe” play as much baseball on the screen as possible. The reasor that Red Grange

Babe Ruth

was such a perfect'flop on the • screen as an actor was because his director forgot that Grange first and I only was a football player. So when you go to see “Babe Comes Home," with Babe Ruth, you will see more baseball in one picture than you have ever seen before. It is not tiresome because the director has permitted Babe to be himself, even to chewing tobacco and ! getting his baseball togs as dirty as [possible. At times this movie is as full of palm hokum as a sardine can is full of sardines, but the thing to remember is that it is human hokum. And the director does not attempt to make a great lover out of Babe. He has his moments of love weakness with Anna Q. Nilsson, but j these moments are delightfully human. Some way. I have the feeling that Miss Nisson has thrown away soma of her iceberg qualities and has become really human for once in this movie. “Babe Comes Home" is blessed with sub-titles which are crowded with good humor. This movie will cause many a movie enthusiast to have more faith in movie vehicles and diamond fans will rejoice that at last a baseball film comedy has been made which rings true. Comedy honors go to Babe Ruth, who acts natural most of the time, but Louise Fazenda has permitted herself to be photographed in comedy poses which turn out to be rare fun but not art. This Fazenda person, when she has a real chance, can be a comedy riot and she is such in this 'movie.

This Babe Ruth movie is the real comedy article. It is built along human comedy lines. The men will love it and yell themselves sick with joy. And the women, well, they will love it, too. The best part of the Vitaphonc presentation this week at the Circle is Martinenni singing a complete scene from Carmen.” He is doing this scene right. May Usher, billed as a comedienne, is a mighty sad example of what comedy should not be. The material used by Warring’s Pennsylvanians this time has been selected with poor judgment. The bill includes “The Relay Race,” one of the Collegian series, and it is a panic; orchestral music and a news reel. At the Circle all week. Other theaters today offer: “Around the World,” at the Lyric; ,Eddie Ross, at the Palace; “Easy Come, Easy Go,” at English’s; ‘‘The Enemy,” at Keith's; “The Gorilla Hunt”, at the Isis, and "Michael Strogoff,” at the Colonial. EXCITING MELODRAMA ON VEW AT THE OHIO An exciting melodrama woven around forest fires, rangers and a comedy sheriff and his pal makes, of “The Understanding Heart,” by Peter B. Kyne, a mighty interesting picture that should be seen at the Ohio this week. Incidently this picture brings into the limelight a couple who are new and decidedly pleasingTn their ap-

ing with a forest fire and an unjust prison sentence for one of the principals, played by Fellowes. An escape from prison is the next happening, ar.d everything starts to go. The escaped prisoner, as hk hiding place, goes to a lonely forest lookout lodge presided over by the girj he loves, played by Miss Crawford. At this time anew ranger comes on the scene and Francis X. Bushman Jr. in this part is highly convincing and real. Os course the new ranger has to fall in love with the girl lookout and the young lady begins to wrestle with a pretty hard problem. A forest fire of gigantic proportions is the next thriller and It is a good one. Richard Carle and Harvey Clark as sheriff and his bootlegger friend furnish some good hearty comedy in the tense situations during the latter part of the picture and we are certain every one will remember this pair. The picture, as most of Kyne’s stories, mds pleasantly and we rate it excellent entertainment. Included on the bill are Ruth j Noller at the organ, news reel and comedy. At the Ohio all week.—(By the Observer.) Has there ever been an English pope? Adrian IV, who became pope in 1154 A. D., was the only one. What is the value of a United Statts 2-cent violet or gray violet postage stamp having a picture of the landing of Columbus? Six cents if uncancelled; if cancelled, 1 cent.

Below are the four West hands given Saturday. South has bid one Heart, score love-all; what should West declare? My answer slip reads: No. 17. West should double. No. 18 West should bid one Spade or double. No. 19 West should bid one Spade. No. 20 West should bid two Diamonds. My reason in support of these declarations are: No. 17. The adverse Heart suit has two stoppers and. as far as the Hearts are concerned, a No Trump is thoroughly justified; but the worthless singleton in Clubs is r menace. If West bid No Trump and North has solid Clubs, North will pass and save the game. The Spades are not strong enough to bid, so the choice is between two Diamonds and a double. The double is wiser because it may produce a Spade bid from partner which will go game If the double produce a Club bid from East, West should bid No Trump. No. 18. A close choice between one Spade and double. I express no preference; the bidding skill of the partner being a material element in reaching a choice. The double has the advantage of producing a Spade bid from East only if he have four, but West’s Spade bid would induce East to pass or possibly to raise with three Spades and might work badly. On the other hand, the double may produce a weak Club take-out by East, which West would follow with a No Trump, and Spades or Diamonds might work better. No. 19. Clearly a Spade declaration. A suit-bid is better than a No Trump with this type of hand. No. 20. A Diamond, not a Spade or No Trump bid. While the Spade honors are much greater, there is great risk that the four-card Spade suit will be forced and long Spades established for the adversaries. The game at Diamonds seems reasonably assured and that bid is the soundest.

Dear Mr. Fixit: Will you kindly sec why there has been no street signs put at Harrison St. and English Ave., Pine and Harrison Sts., Druer PI. and Harrison St.? There is no sign irom Noble St. to Shelby St., a distance of three squares. G W. B. John E.

Movie Verdict APOLLO—CIara Bow turns out to be a delightful roughneck, but always a “lady” in “Rough House Rosie.” OHIO—“The Understanding Heart” is interesting melodrama. CIRCLE—A wise director allowed Babe Ruth to be a great baseball player instead of being an actor. And that is the reason that Ruth makes mighty good in “Babe Comes Home.” COLONIAL—“MichaeI Strogoff,” at times is an example of how poor a picture may be and at other times an example of how big and wonderful a movie may be.
