Worley. “I wish to commend the department for the effort last night toward apprehension and extermination of bandits in and around the city.

HORSETHIEF COPS TO PATROL ROADS

Resent Publicity Given to Highway Holdup of Two Detectives. Horsethief detectives in droves will be out on Marion County roads every night hereafter, trying to make the highways safe for motorists, it was announced today. Irritated by the fun he says was poked at Horsethief Detective Max Kubitz and Joseph Cunningham, victims of a “hold-up and brutal assault,” (Kubitz lost his clothes, car and badge) while patroling roads Saturday night, President Orin E. Davis of the Marion County Horsethief Detective Association today issued this ultimatum: Issues Ultimatum “From this time on I will make a ceaseless effort to have every bonded H. T. D. A. officer assigned to patrol duty on the highways of Marion County, hoping to make the highways more safe and secure for the good citizens who have to traverse them.” Davis said he has between 500 and 600 men available. Each holds a constable’s commission issued by the county commissioners and so can carry a gun and make arrests, Davis said. Each is under SI,OOO bond to perform his duty properly, Davis said. About 50 or 60 men will be out each night in all directions between city limits and county boundaries. No Drive on Petters “We are not going to concentrate on petters, but upon th'e real bandits,” said Davis. Real horsethief detectives do not molest citizens attending to their own business, he said. "Our constant efforts have been held up to ridicule by the press, that is by some daily papers, such remarks being made as ‘the terrors of the roadside.’ If the people would realize this gives the holdups the opportunity that they are looking for and if it were not for the H. T. D. A. officers the people would be at the mercy of the lawless. “The phrase is often used ‘the terrors of the petting parties.’ I want it understood that the H. T. D. A. men are not out to harm or molest the law abiding people, but .that the petting parties are only inviting the highwaymen to molest them when they park on dark and secluded highways and are only at their mercy when they do such.” PLAN NEW BARRACKS Contract for $375,000 Improvements to Be Let July 31.

BALKS PLAN TO SUSPEND RULES FOR KE ISSUE Turns Down Health Board Plan; Asks Consultant Be Named. City councilmen today planned a joint meeting with Mayor L. Ert Slack and board of health members to “iron out recent hitches” in the ctly hospitaal building program next Monday night. Council Finance Chairman Edward W. Harris bucked on the health board’s request to suspend rules and pass a $60,000 bond issue Monday night for engineering and architect fees. The council suspended rules on a minor annexation ordinance presented by Councilman Albert Meurer and an SBOO,OOO temporary loan for effy officials’ salary, but declined to rush the hospital measure, pending twe years. A month ago council passed an ordinance authorizing the health board to select architects, an engineer, and possibly a hospital consultant, to be approved by Slack, their employment being contingent on a bond issue to be passed thereafter by council. Bond Issue Fails The selection of C. R. Ammer* man, engineer, Robert Frost Daggett and Vonnegut, Bohn & Mueller, architects, to design four units, was understood to be “satisfactory” with councilmen, Mayor L. Ert Slack having conferred frequently with councilmen before the choice was announceo. Slack delayed the selection several weeks because of political factions seeking to name the architects. Slack and health board members had expected the $60,000 bond issue to be passed under suspension of rules so the could proceed, as rapidly as possible with the building plans. Statute forbids beginning work until funds are available. Courcilmen were aroused because the health board had not employed a hospital consultant as provided under the previous resolution adopted by council. The council majority is Republican and Slack is a Democrat. Proceed With Slack’s Plans Slack said Monday afternoon that the administration planned to proceed immediately with the power plant, service building, contagious unit and additional ward. “And I think that is all right with the council,” Slack had declared. The mayor was not at the council session. Dr. Frederick E. Jackson, health board member, and Dr. William A. Doeppers, city hospital superintendent, conferred with Harris during a recess Monday night and asked if the council could suspend rules so the specifications can be drawn and work begun as soon as bonds are sold. , Harris said he fel€ the measure should be delayed until a consultant "decides what is needed” at the hospital. Dr. Jackson replied that it had not been definitely decided whether a consultant would be needed. “The board has done its part. The matter is up to the council now,” Jackson said. Meets as Committee Following adjournment the council met as a committee of the whole to discuss the hospital question, with Harris presiding. Several councilmen suggested waiting until the report of Dr. William H. Walsh, Chicago, who made a hospitalization survey for the Indianapolis Foundation, is available before beginning the program. Walsh is said to have conducted a study of all Indianapolis hospitals, but did not particularly direct his attention to the city institution. Walsh conferred with Slack and several councilmen and is favored as consultant by some of the councilmen, it was indicated. Reorganization of the health •board is expected late this week Resignation of Dr. Arthur E. Guedel, 4455 Carrollton Ave., Democratic member, was presented Slack Monday, effective at Slack’s pleasure. Confers With Kelly . Slack conferred with Dr. Walter Kelly, 5503 E. Washington St., relative to the oost left vacant by Dr. Guedel’s resignation. Dr. Guedel expects to leave the city, it is said. The mayor also conferred with Dr. George W. Kohlstadt, 421 HumeMansur Bldg., relative to the health berth, but no announcement will be made for several days. Slack announced today that he plans employment of a hospital consultant in accordance with the council’s wishes, “when we get to It.”

‘Queen Mary’ Wages Legal Fight for House of David

Goes to Court to Carry on as Leader of Late King Ben’s Cult. By NBA Service BENTON HARBOR, Mich, July 27.—The turmoil that “King Ben” Purnell created during his life lives after him. The House of David, much-at-tacked cult that the long-haired leader cook through an endless round of trouble, notoriety and dissension, is still in a ferment, although Purnell himself has been in his grave for months. Latest in the chain of rows to disturb the colony is a bitter fight between “King Ben’s” widow, Mary Purnell, and H. T. Dewhirst, lawyermember of the sect, for control of the remnants of the opce-powerful organization. Protests Cult Literature Dewhirst has been gathering the reins into his hands. And now “Queen Mary,” as the colonists used to call her, has filed suit in the Circuit Court here for an injunction to restrain Dewhirst and his aids from selling colony “literature” which does not bear her name. When Purnell lived, all the tiacts, pamphlets and dodgers disCTibuted by the colony was in the name of “Mary and Benjamin.” Mary’s suit is a counter-attack to an offensive orifinally launched by Dewhirst. Voted to Oust Mary The board of control, which Dewhirst controls, not long ago voted to oust Mary as a trustee. The three or four hundred members of the colony are said to be about evenly divided on the matter. Fist fights and rioting have marked clashes between the rival factions and Governor Green of Michigan is considering asking the courts to appoint a temporary receiver until present litigation involving the future of the colony, now before the Supreme Court of the State, is decided. Dewhirst came to the colony several years ago from California, where he had been a judge. SEEK PARLEY FUNDS Open Drive for $15,000 for V. F. W. Convention.

AL SMITH BANS POLITICS FOR NEXTTEN DAYS Nominee Will Attempt to Rest, but May Ponder Acceptance Speech. BY PERCY B. SCOTT United Press Staff Correspondent ALBANY, N. Y., July 17.—Governor Alfred E. Smith will try to forget for the next ten days or two weeks that he is a presidential candidate or chief executive of this State—and attempt to rest a bit. While putting aside campaign worries, the Governor will turn his attention to his acceptance speech. He will begin to gather data for that address in which he will outline his policies. The speech is expected to be made about the middle of August. Smith’s engagement book carries blank pages for the next ten days, representing an effort to forestall interruptions this may prove effective. It may not. He also will cancel one or two appointments for the five days immediately after the proposed ten-day lay-off, if possible. Prepares Acceptance Speech The Democratic nominee is making thorough preparations for the composition of his acceptance speech. The desk in his library is being piled with data of all kinds—books and pamphlets on agricultural problems, foreign affairs, finance and the other problems of national government. Smith has no formal vacation plans. He will be guided by his mood. He may loaf about the executive mansion most of the time, or he may fish for a few days, or turn to the woods for relaxation. George B. Graves, assistant to the Governor, will take over the reins in all matters except those which law requires the Government handle personally. Drops Fishing Trip Governor Smith had planned a fiishing party for today but this was abandoned when movie photographers demanded another day to complete a series of the nominee. They had expected to finish their work Monday. Campaign directors, meantime, will begin to put the finishing touches upon their plans in New York today. John J. Raskob, chairman of the national committee, and Senator Peter G. Gerry of Rhode Island, chairman of the advisory committee, were due back from week-end trips for a series of conferences.
