CLEAN BILL IS GIVEN COUNTY INSTITUTIONS Grand Jurors Say Nine Are in Good Condition: Praise Managers. Management and condition of nine county institutions in the last six months of this year were approved by Marion county grand jurors in a final report to Criminal Judge James A. Collins today. The jury, however, recommended minor repairs and alterations in several institutions, although extensive investigation shews cleanliness and proper management in each. Sheriff George L. Winkler was voted a compliment ior his supervi: on of t ? county jail, described a being in ;• > l physical condition with a note of cleanliness prevailing in all departments.” It was recommended that the "overcrowd- ; f<i condition of the building at in- ! finals” be remedied.

Management of the courthouse by county commissioners leaves the building still “reasonably well adapted to the increased demands made upon it, and is in good physical condition.” Space Is Needed Several departments, nevertheless, “were found to be handicapped because of insufficient space and inadequate facilities for the economical and efficient conduct of their respective operations.” "We wush to compliment county commissioners for their wise expenditure of money apropriated for renovation and redecoration of the courthouse, which presents a much improved interior.” jurors reported.] Members of the jury, retired today at the term end. are Walter J.

CHILD SLAYER TO DIE IN CHAIR Killer of Boy, 7, to Pay for Crime Tonight. Hii Vnited Press TRENTON, N. J., Dec. 20.—Peter Kudzinowski dies in the electric chair tonight, one year after he sat in a Detroit speakeasy and drunkenly boasted of child murder. Every method of escaping execution has been closed to the man who might have evaded police indefinitely had not liquor loudened i:s tongue and landed him in a Detroit jail. Thirteen months ago Kudzinowski took 7-ytar-old Joseph Sto-eii to a motion picture sho./ on tile lower east side of Manhattan, bought him candy and then led tne ooy across to the New Jersey meadows anu cut his throat. The body was not found until Detroit police, inclined to doubt Kudzinowski’s drunken confcs...on, notified New Jersey authorities tnat they were holding the man. A search disclosed the body. Kudzinowski was brought here and convicted by a jury that deliberated less tnan an hour. POSTOFFICE BUSHED Only One Delivery Daily; Kept Open Nights.

GERMANY HOPES FOR RETURN OF KER COLONIES Some Opposition Develops to Recovery of Lands Lost in War. BY FREDERICK KUH. United Press Staff Correspondent BERLIN, Dec. 20.—Impending adoption of the Young plan rapidly is reviving the discussion of the return of Germany’s colonies lost in the World w r ar. All such discussions have found definite differences between various political groups and have involved dominant financial and industrial groups, together with the powerful president of the reichstag, Dr. Hjalmar Schacht, Germany’s representative at the Paris conference which framed the Young plan. Influential financial and industrial groups Show a tendency to consider the Young plan as a pssible stepping stone to Germany’s recovery of her colonies, although such a movement appears to be faced with a potent home opposition. Not only the Socialists, but the non-Socialist Republicans, doubt if the colonies would be profitable if returned to German control. The opinion among these groups seems to be that Germany’s acquisition of the colonies might jeopardize the sympathies which Germany has gained since the war among colonial and semi-colonial peoples. The government, which hitherto has devoted its efforts toward abolishing mandatory powers as a discrimination against German trade with the former colonies has turned now. since that goal largely has been achieved, to preparing for an intensive campaign in favor of recovery of colonial territory. The fact that Schacht, whose fiominance in reparations discussions has been increased throughGermany by his strong arguments for financial reform, advocates a revival of German colonial activity, undoubtedly will serve to strengthen the hand of those seeking to resuscitate Germany’s colonial empire.

thinks he has solved this momentous question. Unconsciously, many women drivers expect the same homage deference and precedence from men that are accorded when afoot, Anderson believes. A man tips his hat to a woman, opens the door for her, picks up hei handkerchief, surrenders his seat in a crowded street car. stands up as she enters the room and holds her chair for her when she sits down Why then, reasons woman’s subconscious m nd, shouldn’t- she re-

ceive the same privileges, figuratively speaking, when she is drivin an automobile?
