BITTER PROTEST GREETS FLOOD CONTROL PLAN Mississippi Valley Claims It Is Sacrifice Under Jadwin Method. This t the third of • eerie* f four trticW nr! ffeod MTtfrol work In *bt tOssl**lnni valley. BY r. O. BALLET tatted rrm Staff Correspondent MEMPHIS, Term., April 7.—Bitterness of feeling exceeded in national history only by the slave question has been aroused over provisions of the Jadwin plan of flood control in the Mississippi valley. Residents of the valley demanded Congress treat flood control as a federal problem, but rose almost en masse to object to the solution offered. Delegations were sent to Washington to protest and suits to nullify provision of the Jadwin plan were begun in courts. Felt Hostages Inhabitants of certain sections objected to the "sacrifice" of being offered as "hostages’’ in the river when it goes on one of its destructive rampages. To appease the angry flood waters and keep the river within its levee bounds, 150,000 acres of southeast Missouri and a similar amount of rich farming land ih eastern Louisiana is to be sacrificed under provisions of the Jadwin plan. In these sections are homes of thousands of people. The areas would be inundated by “fuseplug,” or weakened levee gaps, in time of exceptionally high water on the Mississippi. Advisability of those "fuseplugs” has been the most bitterly debated provision of the Jadwin plan. Army engineers favoring the Jadwin measure have declared these fuseplugs to be the "heart" of the plan. They are to the flood control project what a safety valve Is to a steam boiler, it is claimed. TTse Every Weapon Land owners in the sections that would be flooded by the uncontrolled inlets have fought this provision of the plan with every weapon known to them Protests have been made in Washington and court suits brought, to stop construction work. In both sections —Missouri and Louisiana—land owners have won suits to compel the government to pay them three-fourths of a “fair valuation" for their property and the government has won injunction suits filed by land owners to stop construction.

Protection Not. Denied The government has protested compensation for the lands within these floodways on the grounds that the fuseplugs would not deprive the owners of any protection they now have. Land owners of the sections, however. have contended they do not "owe servitude to the Mississippi,” and have demanded the government pay them full value for the land and allow the owners to retain title and cultivate at, their own risk. The supreme court of the United States has held tha (government is not liable for dt’jnage to lands flooded as a result of erection or strengthening of lCees in another section. Federal cdJjrts in the district. however, have ruled such fuseplugs to be unfair discrimination and have ordered compensation for ♦he land owners. FORMER ARCHBISHOP OBSFRVES BIRTHDAY T/ord Davidson Gave Up Church Post Because of 111 Health.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

ZELLER MURDER SUSPECTS MOVE TO QUASH CASE Arguments on Hill, Trout Plea to Be Heard by Collins Saturday. Motions to quash indij’ments In two of the most important cases on ; the criminal court trial docket this month were filed today at arraigni ment before Judge James A. Collins. | In one case attorneys moved to quash a true bill charging William Hill, ex-policeman, and James Trout, Miami, with first degree murder in connection with the fatal shooting of Charles Zeller, lottery operator March 12. Collins will hear arguments on the motion Saturday. Similar motion was filed for Miss Nettie Hayes, alleged m. ;'ber of a quartet which held up William Gerard, cashier of the Ter ninal Station Joint Ticket Association office in January, robbing him of $4,848Asks Trial by Jury Ray Ruddell, Wallace Preston and Joseph Price are charged with the same offense. Unless request is made for trial of the quartet by jury, they will be tried Saturday, Collins stated. Thomas J. McKnight, arrested recently in Tulsa, Okla., for the murder of Paul Miller, local policeman, in July, 1928, pleaded not guilty to the charge when arraigned before Collins. The defendant requested trial by jury, but the date was not set. Carl Thompson, alleged companion of McKnight in the shooting, will be returned from Los Angeles where he is held captive, probably this week. A third man, Sanford Satterfield, said to be implicated, named with Thompson and McKnight in the indictment, is serving a sentence at the Oklahoma state prison. Faces Death Penalty Harold Lester, charged with conspiracy .in the Zeller murder case, pleaded not guilty. Under the Hartsell bill, enacted last year by the legislature, Hill, if convicted, faces death by electrocution. No alternative of imprisonment is given. Ben Newman, indicted recently for blackmail in connection with an alleged advertising fraud scheme for the Indiana Journal, weekly newspaper, told Collins today when arraigned that “he did not need an attorney.” Acceptance of a plea was deferred by Collins until Newman obtains counsel. Grand Jury Reports Richard M. Edwards, official of the mad marathon dance contest being held at Cadle tabernacle, pleaded not guilty to charges of child neglect, preferred against him by his ex-wife, Mrs. Mildred J. Edwards. Marion county grand Jury reported to Collins today, returning thirten indictments, in which nineteen persons were named defendants. | Included in the list were bills charging James Trout and James | Leach, apprehended recently at ! Miami, with auto banditry and bur- | glary. They are charged with steal- ! ing an auto, March 25, from the I Washington Auto Sales Company I building. Trout is co-defendant! with Hill in the indictment charg- j ing them with the Zeller murder, j

ELI LILLY FUND FLAN EXPLAINED Sullivan Hears Details of Laboratory Proposal. Details of the proposal of Eli Lilly & Cos., chemists, to equip and maintain the new research laboratory at city hospital were presented to Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan today by George L. Denny, attorney for the company, and Howard Caughran, health board attorney. The proposed agreement is for one year, with the provision of indefinite renewal by agreement of the two parties. Denny said it was necessary to limit the period to a year because the legal department advised that a contract involving appropriation by the city could not extend over a year. The city merely will furnish the building, which is under construction. The Lilly company has agreed to an expenditure of more, than $25,000 for original equipment and a like sum yearly for maintenance. The proposed laboratories would occupy the third and fourth floors of the out-patient building, now under construction. Dr. L. G. Zerfas will continue in charge of the research division. 2 MEN TAKE OWN LIVES Financial Reverses Blamed for Suicides at. Miami.

TAX BOARD HITS ‘OVERBIDS' ON SCHOOLJIEATING i ‘Won’t Consider Shipp’s System: Too High/ Zoercher Says. Criticism of amounts being speitt by state taxing units in equipping i school structures with heating and i ventilating plants was made today by state ♦ax board members in their i consideration of the $75,000 bond issue for erection of a high school | at Plainfield. Officials of Plainfield appeared before the board with a mass of figures, many incorrect and not entirely totaled, and the board ordered compilations made and the data presented within a. few days. One of the three heating bidders is Tibbets Company of Union City, presenting a bid of $23,900 for the equipment as compared to the Vaughn Company, low bid of $19,900. Supplies Shipp Product The Tibbets firm supplies the direct-indirect heating plant, which Is manufactured by C. C. Shipp. "We won’t even consider the direct-indirect system (Shipp's) in this matter because it is too high,” Philip Zoercher, commissioner, declared. “Elimination of that item brings about a $4,000 difference. “The plans call for expenditure of 26 per cent of the contract total for heating and ventilating, which is too much,” Commissioner James Showalter stated. “We're having too much trouble with high heating bids lately. If we are up against another of those closed heating bid propositions, they are beginning to be too numerous.” Open Bidding in Effect Advisory board members told tax commissioners that open bidding had been in effect on the contract. Despite all figures the board compiled, the total cost of the building, never was less than S3OO more than the bond issue and as much as $3,000 over. “Keep within the constitutional bonded indebtedness limit,” Showalter warned. “There is no reason for overstepping the 2 per cent limit, or borrowing from the civil township.” Zoerchev pointed out that the township went Into debt ten years ago by purchasing the Central Academy for $30,000 and declared this purchase “never should have been made.” Condemned as Unsafe The building, until this year, has been used for school purposes, but has been condemned as unsafe by the state fire marshal. Advisory beard members said they wanted to build the high school even if it did cost more than then bonded limit, although it might be necessary to solicit money from residents. Business men of Plainfield have objected to the construction of a senior high school which will add to the tax burden, when an addition to the present junior high school would be more than sufficient to house the 125 high school students. “The township trustee, Robert Stephenson, wants a. gymnasium, which will cost half of the $75,000, and that is why they are building the high school,” one business man said

CAR THEFT SUSPECT PLEADS NOT GUILTY Youth Asserts He Was Hitch Hiker, Given Lift in Stolen Auto.

What Do You Know About CHIROPRACTIC?

INDIGESTION Indigestion is a more or less general term which covers a multitude of sins. It is usual for the patient who SUFFERS DISCOMFORT after eating to diagnose his case as "INDIGESTION.” Perhaps there is too much acid in the GASTRIC SECRETION. Perhaps there isn’t enough. It may be that DEFICIENT MUSCULAR ACTIVITY' permits a sluggish, slow movement of the food. It is quite passible that the difficulty is in the small intestine, but regardless of the condition it is to the patient “INDIGESTION” Perhaps it is as well, for after all It isn’t so much the character of the trouble that is important. It is the cause. Other people have eaten the same kind of food, in the same quantities, prepared in the same kitchen and under the same conditions. They don’t suffer. Why? CAUSE There must be a cause within the body. How can ft be CORRECTED? By taking PILLS to "AID DIGESTION?” Ask the patient. He knows that these pills are merely "CRUTCHES.” They afford temporary relief, but after the. next meal they are again NECESSARY. There is nothing about them that is CORRECTIVE. The CHIROPRACTOR is not interested in TEMPORARY RELIEF alone. He knows there is a “CHRONIC CAUSE” and it is his business to locate and correct it. It is for this reason that so many people who formerly suffered from indigestion have such splendid things to say about CHIROPRACTIC. We reprint below a partial list of the more common ailments in which Chiropractic is effective. If the reader is interested in some condition not listed here he should consult his Chiropractor for additional information.
