SENATORS GIVEN SOCIAL BREAKS, HOUSE CHARGE Hoover Is Accused of Showing *Favortism T by Stafford. // / T'nifrd Prrnt WASHINGTON. Feb. 14—President Hoover Is Riving all the “social breaks - ’ to senators and none to represent a tives. Representative Stafford 'Rep., Wis.) complained in a speech before the house today. His protest came during the debate or, the independent offices appropriations bill, which provides $25,000 for the President’s traveling and entertainment expenses. “I’d like to know what this money is being used for,” Stafford said. “Members of the house used to be invited to all White House receptions, but now they get only one invitation a year, and maybe not that. The senate, I understand. Is invited to all.” Stafford approved the President’s system of increasing the number of receptions, however. “You used to have to wait in line two or three hours to get to the President,” he said. "I suppose it is better now, but I haven't been invited to a reception, so I don't know.” “Perhaps you have qualified for an invitation by your remarks today,” suggested Representative Hawley 'Rep., Ore > "I don’t know about that,’’ Stafford replied. BABY CAUGHT IN CRIB DIES OF STRANGULATION B’l Unitrii Pr< a GARY. Ind..

Returning later to take a peek at the sleeping child, the mother found her dead. Efforts of a fire department inhalator squad to revive the child failed. Firemen said" the child had slipped out of the crib, feet first. The bars were too closely spaced to allow’ the child to fall to the floor, and she hung over the side, her head tightly wedged.

$250,000 RECOVERY COMPLAINT DELAYED Second Lake County Suit Will Ask Return of Overpayment. Delay in gathering material for the second complaint in AttorneyGeneral James M. Ogden's attempt to recover $250,000 for Lake county made It impossible to complete the complaint today, according to Deputy Attorney-General Earl Stroup Stroup said the complaint probably would be mailed to Prosecutor Oliver Starr for filing in the Lake circuit court Monday. It has not been decided, he said, whether any defendants, other than Edward Carpenter, Hammond, would be involved in the second suit. This suit will involve alleged overpayment of approximately $56,000 on frnr'ore for county offices, he said. The first suit was filed in an attempt to recover approximately $137,000 paid for paving materials.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

delegates are most affable and smiling, but the jaw’s of France twenty miles away across the channel are set and grim, and national sentiment is what really counts. Seldom in peace time has the French press been as bitter as it is now against the United States and Britain. Once again it seems to scent an Anglo-American plot to obtain hegemony over the seas at a bargain price. Britain is pictured as bordering on bankruptcy and unable to support a big navy and therefore putting up a diplomatic struggle to prevent mastery of the seas from slipping from her. America is pictured as demanding parity solely out of national vanity and bargaining to obtain co-part-nership without having to spend too much for it. The semi-official French press, heaacd by Le Temps, accuses Britain and America with attempting to impose small navies and sacrifice the security of France to spare

themselves financial burdens which otherwise would be necessary to retain control of the seas. At such times as this, the French pi ess never goes off half-cocked but takes its cue directly from the government. Asa matter of cold fact, the French sizeup of the situation fundamentally is correct, aside from the charge that the United States is seeking parity for reasons of vanity. That assertion easily can be disproved. But that Britain is unable to finance a gigantic fleet and America is unwilling to do so, certainly is not far* from the truth. Furthermore, all folderol aside, France herself easily could justify her claims for naval parity with Britain. In the first place, hers is the second largest colonial empire in the world. Second, historically she has every reason for Cssire to match the British fleet witft one of her own, since Britain obviously would be able to blockade French

ports, blow her cities to pieces, and invade her shores. But France, like Britain, financially is unable to support a vast armada. Nevertheless she is determined to provide one within her means, composed of types of craft affording maximum protection at minimum expense. She insists therefore, upon the right to build many submarines, cruisers, etc., entirely foregoing costly battleships. This is precisely the meat of the cocoanut so far as the trouble here is concerned. Britain fears submarines as she fears nothing else in the world. She opposes also heavy French tonnage in big cruisers. As France considers these essential to her communications with her African empire and man-pow T er, the difficulty of changing her views is obvious. There are more than a thousand mountain peaks in Colorado that are more than 10,000 feet high.

pointment of commissioners to investigate the subject. Ten states already have provided for old age pensions. Thus there are only ten states where the matter has not been considered. The states with old age pension laws are California, Colorado, Kentucky, Maryland, Montana. Nevada, Wisconsin, Wyoming, Minnesota and Utah. In California. Utah and Wyoming adoption by the counties of old age pension systems is mandatory. In seven other states it is optional.
