RUSSIA CALM AS RELIGIOUS STORM RAGES Little Resentment Shown Over Soviet Campaign Against Churches. OTHER ISSUES TO FORE Real Struggle Centers on Attempt to Abolish Private Trading. Following I* the second of a scrie* by Kd L. Keen, vice-president of the l nited Press for Europe, who is in Moscow to survey conditions and report on the. antireifjrious campaign there which has caused wide protests throughout the western world. BY ED L. KEEN Vice-President of the t nited Press for Europe MOSCOW, Feb. 25.—The constant war which Soviet Russia is waging against religion is accepted here with utmost placidity, even by Rushan church adherents. While the entire outside world is agitated over the question of religious freedom within the communistic state, there is a vast region which remains entirely calm—at least outwardly—and that is the land under rule of the Soviets. T t must be supposed that millions of Russians, accustomed to the great ceremonial of the Russian Catholic church, were deeply re;entful at the slights, discriminations and ridicule and even arrests and punishments on the basis of anti-Soviet activities, to which their spiritual leaders were subjected. Undoubtedly the summary closing of many houses of worship, the confiscation of church bells, and the fervid anti-religious carnivals and demonstrations were offensive to a considerable portion of the population, especially the older men and women. No Resistance Offered Any conclusion as to the attitude ol the Russians toward atheism must be modified, but the best information obtainable shows that this resentment —where it exists—rarely expresses itself in any form oi active resistence. The Soviet dictatorship extends over one-sixth of the w r orld and over 150,000.000 persons, but careful local observation and compilation of the opinions of both foreign and Russian investigators has failed to indicate any evidence of organized opposition to the religious issue anywhere in Russia. In the urban centers, new edicts curtailing activities of the church apparently are accepted as a matter ot course. In the vast farming area of the Soviets—an are? which now is witnessing one of the world’s {Treat conflicts in the campaign for collectivization- there admittedly is a certain amount of violence against Soviet policies in the thousands of scattered and isolated villages. Perhaps there is even more of that passive resistance in which the Russian peasant is so adept, but almost none of this opposition is directed specifically against the atheism campaign. Struggle Over Land The real struggle centers on the attempt to bring Russia's vast farmlands into the collective system and to abolish private trading. Such opposition—some of it intensely violent —which the Soviet meets is aroused by this campaign rather than by restriction of churches. This passivity of the Russians to a campaign which would cause the most disastrous reaction in almost any part of the western world has varied explanations peculiar to this country, but the fact that it has been under wav tor twelve years has made the subjects of the Communist dictatorship entirely accustomed to attacks on their faith. The activities of the atheists no longer are “news ’ in Russia, no matter how they may excite the rest of the world. The Christmas season, as the outside world was informed at great length, marked the beginning of a tighter and even more severe period in the Soviet campaign for collectivization of Russia, not bv the slow process of economic revolution, which has been known in other countries, but by a sudden upheaval, which would modernize and industrialize the nation in so short a period that success seemed almost impossible. 50.000 Churches Function Tightening of the collectivization machinery meant more rigorous application of all communistic principles. including the war on religion. Atheist sources claimed that about 1.000 churches throughout the country had been converted to ‘useful" purposes—that is. to anything from a school room to a factory—during the Christmas season and the process is being continued. But there still are 50.000 churches functioning in Russia, with 30.000 priests officiating. The organization of a band of several thousand volunteer workers to tear down a once famous monastery is of more interest to the people of mid-west-ern America than to the peasants who had lived within a stone's throw of the monastery all their lives. These things are accepted merely as part of the revolutionary things to which they have grown accustomed, or they are hailed by those elements which demand restriction of churches as indications progress.

CITY FIRM FORBIDDEN COMPANY NAME USE St. Louis Concern Wins Injunction Based on Similarity. Tire American Automobile Indemnity Company 542 North Meridian street, was prohibited from using its name by a final decree handed down in federal court Monday by Judge Robert C. Baltzell in an. injunction suit brought by the American Automobile Insurance Company of St. Louis. The decree was based on the confusion caused by the two names, the St. Louis firm charging that the public had become accustomed to such terms as “American Automobile" through advertising and that similarity of names was detrimental to its business. A judgment of $2,500 damages and costs was awarded the St. Louis firm.
OFFICIAL OF COURT MAY SUE FOR PAY
Factional politics in Marion county government under Republican administration has been the basis of fifty-eight pay suits ground through county courts in the last year, it was revealed today. Two political cliques, those allied with or opposed to George V. Coffin, have been at sword's points since January of 1929 when the era of pay litigation was ushered in with the protracted battle over the pauper attorneyship, with John Royse, an “anti." and Llyod D. Claycombe. Coffin favorite, as contestants. Since that time, fifty-seven pay battles have waged between the factions, notably, the suits of twenty-seven clerks under County Clerk George O. Hutsell; those of nine bailiffs and nine court reporters in the county's major nine bailiffs, nine court reporters in the county’s major courts, nine probation officers, two municipal court reporters, and the victorious fight of County School Superintendent Fred

Was he handled just as any penniless prisoner would be handled, or did this possessor of great wealth get special privileges? Sinclair’s sojourn in jail was a mystery while he was in jail and it has remained a mystery’ since. Now, however, The Times is ready to give the answers. Starting Wednesday The Times will print the first of a series of six articles giving the complete, detailed, inside story nf Harry F. Sinclair’s incarceration in the Washington jail. These stories were written by a man who was a prisoner in the jail at the time Sinclair was confined there. They throw anew and startling light on the famous story of Sinclair's confinement. These stories are not in any sense an “expose." They are not part of an attempt to fasten any blame on any one. Neither the writer nor The Times has any ax to grind. They are presented for what

SCAN LAKE RECORDS Two More Accounts Board Examiners Detailed. Two additional state board of accounts examiners have been sent to Lake county to investigate records of township assessors in North and Calumet townships, it was learned today. It was not known w'hether defalcations had been discovered in thfe offices of the two latest townships included in the investigation, but was believed generally it was a part of a plan of Lawrence F. Orr, chief examiner of the state board of accounts, to canvass the books of all public offices in Lake county. A total of six examiners now are at work in Lake county, investigating the records of public offices there.

HOPE DIM FOR REAL SLASH IN WORLDNAVIES Makeshift Pact to Save Faces Seems Likely to Be Only Result. •FRANCE STANDS FIRM Paris Delegation Expected to Refuse Concessions at London. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Scripps-Howard Foreign Editor PARIS, Feb. 26.—Chances for anything more than the merest e-saving makeshift five-power agreement at the London naval conference now seem remote. A French delegation will return to London with preicsely the same program which the original delegation took there nearly six weeks ago. If anything, the determination behind it will be stiffened, instead of weakened, by recent events here. Had Tardieu not fallen, he might have toned down his own demands somewhat, and still have commanded support at home. I am told that fully 80 per cent of the people of fiance are behind hipi. But the new government must nave a No. 1 excuse if Tardieu's program is changed. France Is Firm For instance, there is every’ reason to believe that Tardieu would have accepted the strengthening of the Kellogg pact by some sort of consultative arrangement, but today I am not so sure that the French would agree to this. Even if the American delegation offered such a thing and were supported by the British, the betting now would be against France accepting such understanding as a basis for serious reduction. Whereas the newspaper Le Temps, the semi-official organ, a fortnight ago stated plainly that France was inclined to consider almost any formula Intended to increase her sense of security as a basis for naval reduction, the newspaper now states categorically that such pacts as have been discussed so far are “absolutely insufficicient." Insist on Defense On the eve of the reopening of the conference, the Paris press is devoting much space to a restatement of the French position. Newspapers which get their inspiration from high government officials, insist that if every nation must look to its own defense, each must have an adequate navy, and only upon an agreement that the nations will go to one another’s support would a drastice reduction be warranted. In view of the news from America that President Hoover is opposed even to a consultative pact, and news from London that the British are hesitating to make any such offer, and from Rome that Mussolini is backing a demand for parity with France, it would seem that the best to be hoped for at London is a four, three or two-power pact, and expressions of pious hopes for better luck in 1935.
REPLIES TO GILLIOM Rogers Against Indorsing Court Candidates. Fin United Press LEBANON, Ind., Feb. 25.—The Republican central state committee of Indiana prefers to see able candidates nominated for the supreme and appellate benches by the Republican party, but the committee must remain impartial to the individual aspirants, Chairman Eliza O. Rogers, Lebanon, replied in a letter to Attorney-General Arthur L. Gilliom. Gilliom. opposed by the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, had written Rogers warning against nominating a candidate indorsed by dry interests for the seat of Benjamin M. Willoughby, “I might say in reply to your letter that the committee can not interest itself in any particular candidate, The three men w r ho are candidates for the place now occupied so ably by Judge Willoughby are lawyers of ability and character, so I do not believe the committee could render any service to either the party or state by sponsoring one of them to the exclusion of the others.” Rogers replied.

Farm Board Chairman Is One Federal Jobholder Who Fears No Man; Fighter to the Core
Alexander Legge Has One Aim —Help the Farmers; Political Pressure Has No Effect on Him. BY RODNEY DUTCHER NEA Service Writer (Copyright, 1930, NEA Bervice. Inc.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.—The most distinctive thing about Alexander Legge is that he is a federal jobholder who isn’t afraid to tell any one where to get off. Such fearlessness in the chairman of the federal farm board marks him as a man apart in Washington. He is immune from political pressure, he isn’t looking forward to a bigger and better job, he has all the money he will ever need and you just can’t imagine any one of whom he might ever stand in awe. The two things which seem to actuate Legge in the early stages of the government's attempt to put agriculture on a paying basis are his sympathy for farmers and his own obvious relish for doing a difficult job well in his own way. Some people consider Legge helpful, pleasant and sympathetic, while others regard him as a hard-boiled individual. It all depends on what Legge thinks of them and their propositions.
Faces Immense Task ! He faces a tremendously big job, j but no one so far has suggested that ! he isn’t able, dynamic and efficient | —hw record proves that he is all ! those things. | There are a few men in Washing- : ton whose appearance anywhere causes many strangers to ask: “Who’s that?” Legge is one of them. He’s a big, lanky Scotchman with a rather large head, more than six feet tall and weighing about 200 pounds. His face is clean-shaven and red. Sometimes it wears the most baleful look that has been seen here since the retirement of Senator Jim Reed of Missouri. Legge wears dark, conservative clothes. He eats lightly, holding back at the table, but keeping plenty of apples and pears in his office. Quit SIOO,OOO Job When President Hoover sounded him out about leaving his SIOO,OOO---year job as president of the International Harvester Company to go on the farm board, Legge is said to have accepted, on condition that he be made chairman. Originally he took the job for a single year, ending next July 15, but it seems unlikely that he will quit at that time, unless convinced that the campaign to put agriculture on ! a sound basis is off to a good start. After selling farm machinery for for years, Legge appreciated what farmers were up against and also that the farming business has been the basis for his own rapid rise. Legge was confirmed quickly and has been talking turkey to people here ever since. He told President Butterworth of the United States Chamber of Commerce, for instance, that the chamber ought to divest itself of the economic theories of the horse-and-buggy age. Senator Caraway of Arkansas, questioning Legge, said: “I believe you said you read the farm bill twenty times and didn’t understand it?” ‘'Frankly,” replied Legge. “I will read it twenty times more and then I am doubtful whether I will understand it.” “I may be kicked out and probably will,” he told the American farm bureau federation in warning it that surpluses must be controlled at the source. “But the work is being started and the rest depends on you.” I Legge's present popularity here i was mostly achieved when he defied ; Julius Barnes and the western grain dealers. The grain farmers never did like the dealers, who made most of the profits in the business, but they were at the dealers’ mercy. Champion of Fanners Now they have a champion in Legge. The farm board has been trying to set up a marketing and stabilization structure owned and operated by farmers. If the grain operators are forced from control the fanners may get a fair break. Because Legge wanted the farmer to dominate the marketing system the operators went gunning for him. Barnes, a large exporter and chairman of the directors of the United States Chamber of Commerce, led the charge. He found no encouragement at the White House or anywhere else. That incident, plus the credit given him for stepping in at the time of the stock market crash and pegging wheat at $1.25 a bushel when it might have gone down to 60 or 70 cents, seemed to make Legge solid with both the farmers and the belligerent senate farm bloc which has kept off his neck ever since, turning its guns on the grain dealers.

Little Eva Original Child Star of 'Uncle Tom’s Cabin’ Still Alive.
BY HENRY MINOTT United Presa Staff Correspondent BELMONT, Mass., Feb. 25.—Little Eva, who made 100 trips to heaven on a telegraph wire back in 1852, has lived to see those celestial journeys vanish from the American stage. Last week, in New York, the Actors’ Equity Association announced that for the first time in seventy-eight years, not a single theatrical company is playing “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” anywhere in the United States. Most newspaper readers probably skimmed this story and then allowed their eyes to wander to other columns; but a charming little lady who lives in a big yellow house in this Boston suburb read and re-read the equity’s announcement. Her memory* carried her back to that notable night of Sept. 27, 1852, when, as Coredlia Howard, “the wonder of the age,” she played the role of Little Eva in the premiere of the dramatic version of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” or life among the lowly. She was only 4 years old then. Today, at 82, she looks younger than she is and feels younger than she looks. She has that charm of graceful age that reminds of lavender and old lace. It was in the old museum at Troy, N. Y., that Little Eva, in the form of Cordelia Howard, made her first trip to heaven —a journey destined to bring tears to the eyes of millions of theater-goers during more than three-quarters of a century. The show was a big success and ran for 10C nights, making it the "Abie’s Irish Rose” of its day. Cordelia remained as Little Eva until she outgrew the role at 12. Asked If “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” in her opinion, at last had lost the magic spell it held so many years over American theatergoers, she said: “Goodness.no! It won’t be long before another company will start out on the road, bloodhounds and all.”
BODY OF SICILIAN LEADER IS FOUND
Bu United Press GARY, Ind., Feb. 25.—A bloody cap and a German automatic revolver were the clews that led to the discovery of the lime covered body of Paul Perconti, 40, Gary leader of the Unione Sicilione, in a concrete sealed tomb, hidden below the floor of a duneland bam east of GaryA Police returned to the old barn, which housed an abandoned distillery, Monday, believing that at the spot where on Saturday they had found the cap and gun, they would find further indications of the mystery surrounding the disappearance of Perconti a week ago. The officers were searching around the barn when John Bolden, Gary Negro detective, discovered fresh cement beneath debris on the floor. The floor, when tom up, re-

RACKET BARON ROUTS FOES IN HOSPITAL DUEL Frankie McErlane. Wounded Three Times, Fights Off Gangsters. 27 HOLES PLUG ROOM •Beer King’ Snarls Defiance to Cops, Refusing to Name Raiders. Bu United I'ress CHICAGO, Feb. 25.—Twentyseven bullet holes today scarn’H the white walls of the hospital room where Frankie McErlane, “back of the yards” beer baron and notorious as Chicago’s toughest gangster, fought a gun battle with three | racketeers who trapped him as he lay with a broken M; Monday night. ' Snarling hatred of his enemies ; and defiance to police, McErlane held to life grimly today, although three bullets from his would-be assassins’ guns reached their mark. One pierced his back, another tore through his thigh, and a third disabled the wrist of his gun hand. Propped on an elbow, heaving against the weights that held his piaster cast incased leg in the air, the ally of Spike O'Donnell pumped five shots from his automatic when the trio of unannounced visitors stepped into his room. Instantly the room echoed to the roar of guns un- ; til thirty shots had been fired. Ran Like Dogs “They sneaked in like alley rats I and ran away like dogs,” growled ! the ganster, when police reached his | cot in the terror-stricken ward at ! the German Deaconess hospital, i where the gun battle was fought. But McErlane. true to gangland's I iron code, refused to tell who shot him. Even when police told him , they were going to remove him to j the Bridewell hospital, which he I said “means sure death for me,” lie stuck to his noncommittal answers. The gunmen executed their raid into the supposed sanctuary of the | big hospital with daring and light- | ning speed. A sedan drew up at the ; curb. The three sped up a fire escape. They slipped past two rooms | and into one where McEriane had i lain since Jan. 28. McErlane's | private nurse was out of the room. 11l Leap From Beds Panic came swiftly as the roar of gunfire swept through the wards. Patients screamed and many who had been bedfeast for weeks leaped out of their cots and ran until they fell from weakness. But before nurses could get to the room where the unequal duel was being fought, it was over and the invaders had fled. Whether they went down the fire escape or out another entrance could not be ascertained. Police Commissioner William F, Russell launched an investigation today to determine how the notorious gangster, who has been tried for several murders and earned the name of the “crudest of the gangmen,” managed to spend a month in the hospital without his identity becoming known. He hobbled into the hospital, telling officials he was Charles Miller and that his leg had been shattered when his gun accidentally was discharged. It was not until police arrived after the gun battle that his story was disproved. “It looks as if the enemies who shot him before came back to finish the Job,” Lieutenant Garret Coan said.
Officer Is Slain Fin United Press CHICAGO, Feb. 25.—Death was ! the fate of Detective John Ryan here Monday when he climbed the dark steps of a rooming house to arrest a bandit suspect.

In a furious gun battle between the two in the dark, Ryan was slain and Fallon wounded in the leg. Police waiting for Ryan hurried in, but in the confusion Fallon limped out unnoticed and forced a passing taxicab driver to aid in his escape.
