Capitol Ave., | were arrested on charges of selling labels, strip stamps and other counterfeit liquor accessories last fall.

WATSON IS SCORED Offers No Hope for Future Cleanup, Says Manager. “Senator James E. Watson has made no mention of any need for an Indiana clean-up. Having failed to mention it, can any one believe he intends to effect one?” Oscar G. Foellinger, Indiana manager for Herbert C. Hoover’s presidential campaign, asked that question in a statement today in which he charged, “Senator Watson has been for years the head of a political machine, which, because of his lack of leadership and his overt acts, dragged the good neme of Indiana through the mire.” “The approaching primary May 8 should be a turning point in Indiana’s political history,” declared Foellinger.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

GOTHAM SPLIT OVER RAISE IN SUBWAYFARES Administration Will Fight for Retention of Nickel Rate. By United Press NEW YORK, May 3.—Rule of the nickel began to wane in the Nation’s greatest city today. The Federal District Court Wednesday ruled the Interborough Rapid Transit Company—which operates the great system of subways and elevated lines by which a majority of New York’s 12,000,000 daily go to their labors—could charge a 7-cent temporary fare instead of 5 cents. A special master will decide later on a “fair and reasonable” rate.

That spelled doom for the nickel in New York unless Mayor James J. Walker and his city organization is victorious in the retaliatory drive. The masses,- straphangers, who daily undergo subway jams for the five and ten-mile rides from home to work, were divided on the new fare. Some thought it would mean better service and perhaps more rolling stock—which might mean the possibility of getting a seat occasionally. Others lamented the move because it would mean additional cost. Newspapers were divided. One urged the city to fight. Another said it would bring about a better return of profit and better service. Another had a thought for the city’s poor who have a struggle now. But the city administration has no thought of giving up the nickel fare—the last stronghold oi the five cent piece in New York—without a legal battle. Mayor Walker, who recently said he would retire after this term, renounced that decision and said he would be a candidate for re-elec-tion of a “five-cent fare” platform. He also called in city attorneys to make plans for an appeal to the United Staes Supreme Court to restrain the I. R. T. from charging seven cents. This appeal will be filed immediately and a temporary injunction will be sought pending final decision. Former Judge Buried. UNION CITY, Ind., May 3 Business halted here today during funeral services for Theodore Shockney, former Randolph Circuit Court judge and State legislator, who died in Ormond, Fla.
