WARNER BROTHERS AND UNITED ARTISTS MERGE Preliminary Steps for New Gigantic Combine Already Taken. Bu United Press HOLLYWOOD. March 29.—For- i mation of another huge motion picture combine was in progress today, Joseph M. Schenck, president of United Artists, said. He has just returned from New York after setting in motion preliminary steps for a consolidation of United Artists interests with Warner Brothers.

21 BILLIONS IS ANNUAL LUXURY BILL FOR U. S. Expenditures Have Tripled Since 1914: Tastes Show Changes.

BY JOSEPH H. BAIRD United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright 1929. bv United Press) WASHINGTON. March 29.—The American citizen, since the distant pre-war days, increasingly has become a lover of luxuries, a search through mouldy statistical records of the commerce department revealed today. His consumption of cigarets, candy, perfumes and automobiles has doubled, tripled, and in some instances quadrupled since 1914. Although the commerce department can not estimate accurately what Americans spend for pleasures and play, they cited a recent estimate of Dr. Charles A. Beard, who believes we pay the, huge sum of $21,045,000,000 per year for all forms of diversion. Americans Read More But Americans read far more j newspapers and magazine’s than they did in the “mauve decade.” And they are much better educated. College enrollments have tripled in the last fifteen years. Secondary and high schools similarly have grown. Forms of amusement constantly are changing, statistics prove. In 1914 the United States had 255 piano factories. Their products were valued at $66,0') 1,000 a year. By 1925 there were only sixty-eight such factories, and their output was worth $62,775,000. Radio generally is blamed among music dealers for the declining sales 1 of other instruments. In 1919 American factories produced only $8,075,000 worth of radio equipment. Eight years later this figure had increased to $191,848,665, more than twenty-fold.

The American sweet tooth is becoming sweet-er, the commerce department believes. In 1914 producers of confectioneries valued their products at $153,685,000. This figures nearly tripled in thirteen years, reaching $391,927,343 in 1927. Jewelry, too, has profited by the American’s growing love for luxury and splendor. Jewelers valued their output at $81,006,000 in 1914 and by 1927 saw its worth rise to $164,865,057. More perfume and other toilet articles are being used. Such articles produced here in 1927 were assayed at $177,091,000, an increase in value of 12 per cent over 1925. Ice cream is justifying its reputation as America’s favorite dessert. In 1914 it was popular enough for manufacturers to produce $55,983.000 worth of it. The 1927 producton was valued at $301,512,431. Cigaret Replaces Pipe The cigaret is replacing the pipe in America’s smoking cabinet. The factory value of tobacco and snuff was $175,281.0002 in 1914. There were 436 factories producing it. In 1927 the factories had decreased to 159. But their output was greater, being valued at $198,244,697. A much larger increase was shown for cigars and cigarets. Their wholesale value rose from $314,884,000 in 1914 to $965,532,702 in 1927. Os this amount, cigarets accounted for more than half. $552,261,070. “America on wheels” would be a fitting designation for our motorized state, the commerce department . '- lieves. In 1927 American factories produced $2.537,112 192 worth of motor vehicles. In 19\4 the figures was only $503,230,000. SUGGEST GOSHEN MAN FOR HIGHWAY PLACE Lawyer Urged As Successor to George E. Hershman. Attorney Robert G. Beck, Goshen, Thursday was suggested to Governor Harry G. Leslie as a successor to George E. Hershman (Dem., Crown Point) on the highway commission. The suggestion was brought to the. chief executive by Senator Arthur B. Stonex. Goshen, and Representative H. R. Stauffer, Nappanee. Hershman will not be reappointed, it is said, and the successor is to be an engineer and not from Lake county. This report would rule out Eeck. Elkhart county citizens favor the proposed change in directorship of the highway department, Stonex declared. Like other counties, they feel they have not had their share of state roads.

HOME OF MANY KILLERS SOON TO BE MEMORY Cook County Jail, Haunted by Ghosts of Crime, to Be Torn Down. BY MARBEN GRAHAM 1 nited Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. March 29.—That great battered old husk of cold stone and • hard iron, the Cook county Jail, / soon will be no more. Jp Its air is b?d, its light poor, it# dungeons damp, but it is stauratA „ with human interest. Each of those musty walls is crowde® memory ghosts of those who mad< that most awful march of all, to% the gallows. A ghastly procession began fifty-1 five years ago when Chris Rafferty* gained the unwanted and honor of being first to hang in the * then new jail. A dramatic record the prisoners leave behind them when they go to anew $7,500,000 jail house the first of April. Recall Famous Killers Carl Wanderer. Harvey Church. “Terrible’’ Tommy O'Connor, Russell Scott. Sam Cardinella, "Griiiiu- j ma” Nusbaum. Arthur Winn, Mar- j tin Durkin. Beulah Annan, Belva | Gaertner. Leopold, Loeb. all have * been imprisoned in the historic old jail. After Rafferty, the memories for a time are indistinct. One flash reveals a group of jmen striding boldly to the gallows shouting defiance to the world while the entire police force stands guard outside. These were the Haymarket anarchists. Just twenty-five years ago three grim men, the “car bam bandits” whose lust for wine and women and song led them to murder, went through their last night and to the trap doors without an outward oujver. They were Peter Neidemeyer. Gustav Marx and Harvey Van Dine. Married 44 Wives There came Johann Hoch. He j said fooling women was easy and married forty-four wives in twenty years, but no one knows how many he killed besides the last one. Johann smiled when the black hood vis adjusted about his head, and said nothing. Then Carl Wanderer, one-time army lieutenant and pseudo-hero. No more .ruthless a slayer and no bigger a bluffer ever trod those creaky steps to the gallows than { Carl. "Wanderer it was who intrigued a j nameless stranger to “waylay” him j and Mrs. Wanderer that he might g shoot her and her unborn babe, un-ff der the guise of protecting her. 1 He shot the stranger and wife. 1 And Tommy O'Connor. “Terrible” . Tommy they called him. What a j thrill he created on Dec. 11, 1921. four days before he was to have died, when his escape from the death cell was flashed. Police still are hunting for "Terrible Tommy.” Martin Durkin could not be over- i looked. A smiling, immaculate j young ruffian, who was such a lov- \ ing husband. He trapped a secret I service man in a garage and shot £ him to death without giving his 1 victim a ghost of a chance. And then, there were Leopold and Loeb. Every one still remembers a them. The old jail has not seemed the same, since they installed an electric chair last December. Maybe it is fitting that these old ghosts of a past age should be left, in peace and anew series of the modern times started in new surroundings.
