URGhS DEHAT AS REBUKE FOR SHAMEOF CITY Democratic Speaker Tells Radio Audience Old Gang Holds Sway. The record of corruption and indictments made by the Republican party during its period of power in Indianapolis was read into the hemes of Indianapolis radio listeners Monday night by Walter Myers, Democratic nominee for mayor in 1925 “If the group elected four years ago betrayed the city, disgraced its name and exposed its citizens, Republican and Democrat alike, to public ridicule, the only remedy is to repudiate such conduct with defeat and not to reward it with victory, merely because they pretend to be penitent and are begging for another chance,” he declared. “Political bosses are always begging for another chance.” Myers reviewed the election of Charles W. Jewett as mayor and his appointment of George V. Coffin as chief of police. Coffin’s subsequent resignation never has been explained, Myers asserted, adding: “Coffin stole the organization.” John L. Duvall’s nomination and election followed, Myers said. Os Duvall’s conviction under the corrupt practices act, Myers asserted: “The Coffin gang was responsible for the disgrace and the issue is: "Shalt the power and Influence of George V. Coffin extend through the next four years?’ ”

The girls show marks of good training and obviously a good study of their audience. The packed house showed its appreciation.

Air Death Rate Low Bit Hrinicr Brrrice HARTFORD, Conn, Oct. 29.—Persons who still are a bit squeamish about taking their first airplane ride may be encouraged by the new’s they are taking only a chance of one in 4,000 of dying if they ride with a licensed pilot over a scheduled pas- : sanger route. These are the chances figured out by the committee on aviation statistics of the Actuarial Society of America. The committee found that, last year, only thirteen passengers were killed out of about 50,000 i carried in scheduled flights. The deaths among all federally j licensed pilots were thirty-five per I 1,000 for the first six months of the year and twenty-five per 1,000 during the last six months. The fatality rate during the year was highest among the pilots operating planes over scheduled routes, where : it was forty-five per 1,000. The mor- j tality for army and navy aviators j for the last year was at a lower rate j than for commercial pilots. Sponsor Air Show California, which has more air- i planes per capita than any other I state or country in tie world, soon j is to sponsor the “Western Aircraft Show,” at which all manufacturers are asked to exhibit their latest models. The meet will be held at Los Angeles from Nov. 9 to 17. On Air Tonight A description of Charles A.

Arguments on pleadings to determine issues in the suit of Newton Todd to prevent transfer of title of the Citizens Gas Company to the city of Indianapolis, were started before Federal Judge Robert C. Baltzell today, with nearly twenty attorneys representing various interested parties. Leave of court to withdraw the application of Allen G.

CARE URGED IN BUYINGOF COAL Retail Club Issues Warning Against 'Shorters/ Indianapolis coal buyers should heed the warning set by recent municipal court, shortage and misrepresentation convictions of several coal dealers and purchase their wintor's fuel supply from reliable retailers only the Indianapolis Retail Coal Club said today. Dealers affiliated with that organization handle approximately 80 per cent of the city's gross _coal tonnage. In 1923, after many complaints were received by the Indianapolis Better Business bureau, accofding to the statement issued from the club, the city adopted an ordinance to regulate the advertising, sale, and distribution of coal. “Be suspicious of the dealer who does not describe his product fully, as to size, grade and classification, in both advertising and delivery,” the club’s statement read. “Better dealers are anxious to comply with the ordinance, and have pooled a fund to have the coal analyzed by a competent chemist.

PREMIER FACES TILT Domestic Issuer, in Spotlight for Parliament. LONDON, Oct. 29.—With the opening of the British parliament today, the labor government found itself facing a severe challenge on the unemployment problem. Inasmuch as Premier J. Ramsay MacDonald was still on the ocean and not expected to take his place on the bench until the end of the week, the laborites decided to evade discussion of the unemployment issue until his return. The first few days of the session therefore will be devoted to routine business. When MacDonald returns the real battle will begin oq domestic issues.
