U. S. PEASANTR Y RISING IN FARM SL UMP, C. OF C. WARNED

RELIEF PLANS DISCUSSED BY BUSINESS MEN Concrete Aid Rather Than 'Sympathetic Gesture’ Is Demanded. REVIEW BANK SYSTEM Europe Accepts U. S. Idea of Higher Living Standard, Says Barnes. !! ii United Press WEST BADEN, Ind., Oct. 19. Problem of the farmer today were before businessmen of the country for consideration as a part of the national legislative policies of business. The matter came up when speakers addressed the convention of national councillors and secretaries of the Chamber of Commerce. It was urged that the business men stand behind an “intelligent national agricultural policy, embodying national and State legislative features and regional studies of waste elimination.” N Dwight B. Heard, Phoenix, Ariz., publisher, declared the National chamber has been gradually drawing up a plan whereby business and agriculture may be more closely cooperative. Heard said the chamber wished to prove to the farmers that organized business was prepared to extend practical services in solving agricultural problems. A mere “sympathetic gesture” does not improve the farmers’ conditions, he declared. Predicts U. S. Peasantry Unless something is done, the United States will soon have on its hands an agricultural peasantry, Charles H. Howard of Aberdeen, S. D., told the business men. “The farmers of this country representing a basic industry on which millions are dependent for a living hold the key to our business and political stability. We must not allow them to become desperate, or they will pull down our house of cards,” Howard said. A review of the Federal Reserve Banking system, to be made at a national conference of business, financial and industrial leaders, was authorized yesterday. Indorse Tax Reduction Resolutions were adopted indorsing the council’s approval of Federal tax reduction, legislation for flood control and revision of postal rates. Julius H. Barnes, American vice president of she International Chamber of Commerce, declared America has played a substantial part in world reconstruction in the last few years. “European business men are beginning to accept as a basis for economic and political action the American principle that standards of living must be advanced for all classes of people in order to increase consuming power,” he said. ‘ Condemns U. S. in Business Lewis E. Pierson, national chamber president, condemned what he termed a tendency on the part of the Government to “encroach upon the field of private business by the creation of boards, bureaus and commissions aunder pressure of spe-

WHITE’S SHAFTS HIT ‘HIGHBROWS’ U. S. Needs All Its Law, in Kansas Editor’s View. Fm United Press _ . Oct. 19.—A subtle kinship beween anarchism and the political views of some “highbrow politicians” has been., detected by William Allen White, the Kansas publisher, told the United Press today. White named Nicholas M. Butler, president of Columbia University, and Senator James A. Reed as “highbrow” examples. “The only difference in attitude toward the Government between an anarchist and that type cf politician is largely one of laundry,” White went on. “Men such as Butler and Reed call for reduction in number of laws, but the United States must have its hundreds of laws, it’s socalled minor legislation—traffic laws, pure food laws and so on.” White voted for Herbert Hoover in the 1924 Republican convention. Asked whether he j favored Hoover again, White said: l“You recall that I have bolted the Republican party twice, and the leaders know I am ready to do it again, if necessary.”

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

NEED SEEN FOR CHANGE IN CITY TRAFFIUULES 'Apostle of Safety’ Pleads That Pedestrians Get Consideration. Art Hickox, “apostle of safety,” who has studied traffic problems in many American cities, today congratulated the board of safety on its plan to devise a traffic system which will consider pedestrians. Hickox, who conducted a safety campaign for the Hoosier Motor Club last year, and Mrs. Hickox are here to get anew Stutz car, built to order. “Indianapolis has good wide streets and should be an easy city to drive in. Instead, it is somewhat confusing, particularly because of the four downtown a/venue intersections,” Hickox said. An interval of fifteen seconds, when only pedestrians could move in four directions, was proposed by Hickox to relieve the downtown hazard. Could Use Electric Signal “This could be accomplished by an officer using some signal, such as three blasts of the whistle. During the interval, all motor traffic would be stopped,” he said. “Right and left turns probably are contributing as much as anything to the Indianapolis traffic tangle downtown. Elimination of right turns at Illinois and Washington St., would mean a couple of blocks farther for the motorists, but greater safety for pedestrians. “TJie motorist should remember he & one of ten or fifteen to be considered. Saturday I watched this corner for ten minutes and twentyone street cars made right turns. Meanwhile pedestrians ran wild like sheep. I would estimate 250 to 300 cars and between 900 and 1,000 walkers passed. “Courtesy is lacking sadly in many cases. We all should be more considerate. Life and Limb Periled “The puzzle in Indianapolis is not how Ruth Elder landed safely in mid-ocean, but how a person who walks can hop from one curb to another without losing life or limb,” Hickox declared. Todd Stoops, Hoosier Motor Club manager, Robert Scrogin, Hoosier Motorist editor, and newspaper representatives discussed plans in other cities at a meeting in" the Columbia Club. The committee and Police Chief Claude M. Worley were guests of Fred W. ConneH, Ira P. Haymaker and Robert Miller, safety board members. Here are some proposals: Pedestrian—Elimination of right, left turns at Washington St., at Pennsylvania, Meridian and Illinois St., intersections, with a sign to go for pedestrians a few seconds before motor traffic begins. This plan works in Los Angeles. Chance for Pedestrian O. T. Roberts, advertising counsel —Traffic officer should consider foot as well as vehicle traffic. Give some preliminary signal to warn pedestrians of the change. Have the right line turn right only on the red light, with pedestrians walking on the green. More frequent changes, so pedestrians could get to street cars before they pull away. Harry F. Bell, 28 S. State Ave.— Traffic lanes at intersections, especially at avenues. No right or left turns at busy corners. Verne Earle—Have signal flash “walk” between stop and go. Elimination of jaywalking between intersections. Elimination of turns downtown on Washington St. Offices from fourteen foreign countries are training at United States Arm schools or are on duty with American troops.

END OF WAR IS . BRITONDEMAND Liberal Party Will Combat Naval Race. By United Press LONDON, Oct. 19.—British initiative to insure effective disarmament and make complete suppression of war the dominant policy of every country was demanded in a manifesto issued today by the British Liberal party, of which former Premier Lloyd George is chief. The manifesto demanded specifically that Britain not only repudiate any idea of naval competition with the United States, but reduec her own armaments, “which are beyond the needs of the present situation.” Politicians interpreted the manifesto as a formal declaration of foreign policy in preparation for the next general election, which many think may be held with the next few months.

CITY JUDGED BY CHARITY WORK, SPEAKER SAYS Fred Hpke Tells Kiwanis Club of Community Fund Aims. Indianapolis will be judged by its sister cities to a surprising degree upon Community Fund performance, Fred Hoke, a director and former president of the Indianapolis Community Fund asserted in a speech to the Kiwanis Clukrtoday. Citizens of Indianapolis get far more value for their dollars under the organized plan of the community fund than they ever did under the old hit-and-miss methods," said Mr. Hoke. "An awakened public spirit is abroad in the city and this coordination of public opinion will not only deal generously with the thirtyeight agencies sharing in the fund, but it likewise will make otljer cities realize that adverse criticism of Indianapolis is not justified so far as social service work is concerned. This same public opinion. I might add, is righting other conditions in our city.” Speak to P. T. A. Groups • Other meetings held today in the interest of community fund matters included the Woman’s Department Club with Howard Jensen of Butler University as speaker; the Hadass.;h Society of the Kirschbaum Center with T. P. Woodson as speaker: the Junior Chamber of Commerce with the Rev. Edwin Dunlavy as speaker, and the Minerva Club, meeting at the home of Mrs. Minnie Burkhafdt, 4455 Central Ave., with Mrs. J. A. Cameron as speaker. * A group of Parent-Teacher Association meetings were held this afternoon at Schools 42, 50, 38, 55, 70, 75, 81, 6 and 8, with Homer Borst, Mrs. Brandt C. Downey, Miss Gertrude Gamlin, Roy Lewis, Mrs. David Ross, the Rev. C. G. Baker, Mrs. M. F. Murphy and Mrs. Samuel Ashby as speakers. Careful Study of Budget At Tuesday’s meeting of the Rotary Club Walter C. Marmon, general ampaign chairman, declared this year’s budget of $722,800 had been determined after a careful study of each organization’s needs and that every dollar raised during the campaign would be accounted for in a very strict manner. “Ninety-three cents of every dollar collected," said Marmon, "goes directly to the thirty-eight agencies sharing in the fund. This is the | most economical method yet devised for providing for a city’s social service and charitable agencies. From my own personal investigation I can testify that no waste or duplication course in the administration of the Indianapolis Community Fund.” Need a handy man for odd jobs about the place?
