TORNADO TOLL PAST 20 MARK; SCORES HURT Seven States of Midwest Laid Waste by Lash of Three Storms. PROPERTY LOSS IS HUGE Relief Units Mobilized to Aid Homeless Victims of Hurricane. Bv United Prrxs CHICAGO, May 2.—More than twenty deaths were counted early today in the wake of three tornadoes and accompanying lesser windstorms that left scores of persons injured and hundreds homeless in devastated sections of seven mid-west states. Five deaths were known in Nebraska, as many in Minnesota, five in Missouri, two in Illinois and one each in Kansas, Wisconsin and North Dakota. The region of greatest damage lay in the Missouri river valley, centering in the north in an area of northeastern Nebraska and in the south in districts around Kansas City. Coming out of northeastern Nebraska, the first of the tornadoes visited its fury on Tekamah, a town of 900 inhabitants, killing four persons and injuring many, and destroying whole blocks of homes. Three others lost their lives when the storm hit Pender and passed on over five other Nebraska towns—Homer, Jackson, Winnebago, Bancroft and Walthill.

Break During Night In the northwest another series of tornadoes broke loose during the night, and first reports showed they had hit near Zumbro Falls, Minn., indirectly causing three deaths, and at Westby, Wis., where one death occurred. A cloudburst that came as the aftermath of the tornado that passed close to the Minnesota town and wiped out a number of farm, houses, resulted in the drowning of Mrs. R. W. Lawler, her 5-year-old daughter, and Mrs. Walter Dodge, all of Rochester, Minn. The two women and the girl were in an automobile traveling toward Lake City, Minn., when a torrent of water loosed by the cloudburst swept over them. Damage Is SIOO,OOO At Westby, Wis., Archer Funk, 9, was killed and several persons were injured in the other tornado, which did damage estimated at nearly SIOO,OOO. Two operators In the Westby telephone exchange were blown through a window and severely injured. Other storms in Minnesota and North Dakota resulted in six deaths. The cloudburst, which came as the aftermath of a tornado that struck near Zumbro Falls, Minn., caused the death of two more women when their car skidded from the highway. Bolt Hits Farmer Lightning struck and killed a farmer at Lawton, N. D. High wind at Rockford, HI., brought death to one person and injuries to another when the automobile in which they were riding was struck by a falling tree. Violent winds, accompanied by lightning, hail and rain, struck the outskirts of Chicago during the night, doing damage of approximately SIOO,OOO in the exclusive Beverly Hills district, where one man was killed by lightning. A dozen persons were injured as roofs were blown away and windows were shattered. The tornado struck three times In northwestern Nebraska. More than a half dozen communities were in its path. Farm buildings were leveled and communications were demoralized. Traveling northward on the Nebraska side of the Missouri river, the storm struck the towns of Waithill, Winnebago, Jackson, Homer and Loons. Phone Girl Heroine Winnebago and Walthill are on the Indian reservation and country nearby is populated by members of the Omaha and Winnebago tribes. The courage of Mrs. Lillie Lathrop. a telephone operator at Homer, who several years ago was awarded the Vail medal for heroic service, saved many persons living in that town. Mrs. Lathrop remained at her switchboard warning townspeople of the approaching storm. Hundreds were able to flee because of her advice. Tekamah. with a population of near 2,000, suffered severely. Property damage was largely confined to the homes of poor, though homes of Scattered communities of northeastern Kansas and northwestern Missouri were a chaos of death, injury, shattered homes and twisted communication lines today, marking points where a tornado dipped. Norbome, Mo., about one hundred miles northwest of Kansas City, paid the heaviest price. Three persons were killed in the town and two others died in the collapse of a farmhouse two miles northwest The storm struck first near Winchester, Kan., killing Lawrence Kem, a farmer, who was lifted from his feet through the air and dashed to the earth as the winds roared over into Missouri.

Vilma Baiiky Leaving Films to Be Housewife

********** * f |g®K2v.

Vilma Banky Bu United Press HOLLYWOOD,- Cal., May 2.—Vilma Banky, Hungarian actress, who attained stardom in motion pictures, announced today she is retiring from the screen in favor of a housewife role. She is the wife of Rod La Rocque, actor. The actress branded as absurd reports she and La Roque have come to e parting of the ways. “These reports are utterly ridiculous,” Miss Banky declared. “I have decided to quit pictures to become once and for all Mrs. Rod La Roque. We are so happy and we shall never part.”

Mamie’ll Pay That $5 hat in the shop window looks great to Mamie. She has five crumpled dollar bills in her purse, just enough to get the hat. So she thinks. But Mamie doesn’t know much about the new Grundy tariff, which our benevolent and afl-wise congress has cooked up to save the American people. Mamie is not strong on such matters as the tariff. So when she goes into the store the next day with her five crumpled bills, the hat has been marked up to $6. That’s the benefit from the Grundy tariff bill, which is raising duties on everything that will boost the American manufacturers’ bank roll and reduce the bank roll of the consumer. Not only Mamie's hat will be boosted a dollar in price. There are thousands of other articles for which you’ll pay the bill. Write your representatives and senators in congress. Stop the Grundy tariff gouge. Read the editorial on Page 8.

INDIANAPOLIS, FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1930

COLLAPSE OF NEWLY PAVED ROADSBARED Stretches of Resurfaced State Highways Have 'Blown Away.’ WEATHER IS BLAMED Deterioration Will Cause Establishment of Long Detours Again. Several state highways, resurfaced less than six months, have large areas in which the surface * has “blown away,” state highway commissioners admitted today. In each instance, the resurfacing was done with rock asphalt, one of the so-called “black top” paving materials, under the direction of A. H. Hinkle, superintendent of maintenance of the state highway department. Hinkle blames the weather for this failure and points out that in each instance, the contractor must restore the surface. The public again will undergo the inconvenience of detouring. * ■d Believe Oil Poured According to Hinkle, certain “black top” men claim that they believe oil had been poured on the surfacing before it was set and that this caused its collapse. State highway commissioners do not hold to this theory, but are unanimous in blaming the weather. Outstanding example of the complete failure of this resurfacing is on the seven-mile stretch on State Road 31, from State Road 26, to the city limits of Kokomo. This job was completed last November, Hinkle said, by P. B. Putnam, Ft. Wayne, at a cost of approximately $12,000 a mile. In less than three months it started to collapse. Now there is a stretch of nearly two miles in which the rock asphalt surfacing has completely disappeared in spots and only the rough base remains. Detour Established Cars will continue to bounce over this section until summer weather sets in. Then the road will be closed again, as it was last fall, and a long detour established, Hinkle explained. It is here that the “black top” people talk of oil being used to throw discredit to their materials. Oement boosters, whose war with “black top” men keeps the state highway commisison departments in an almost constant state of turmoil, scoff at this idea and assert it would take a tank car of oil to render the road in such a plight. The resurfacing was done over an old concrete road. Hinkle said this had been in service only about seven years and was in bad .condition when it was dec ; ded to resurface it with “black top.” Cited as Example State Road 15, between Wabash and Marion, is pointed to as another “horrible example.” Here also the resurfacing was done late last fall and the freezing weather caused the top to deteriorate and “blow away,” according to Commissioner Jess Murden, Peru. There are several similar instances, on smaller scales, in the southern part of the state, Hinkle admitted. The paving program for this season has meant a huge cut in “black top” and increase in cement projects the commissioners agree. Last year Hinkle had eighty miles of “black top” laid, and this season the commission cut the mileage to twentyfive. They expect to lay at least 500 miles of cement. Weather and the cement trust seem to have Hinkle and “black top” on the run, commission commentators declare. LINDY IN BRIEF HALT Stops at Havana on Mail Hop to Miami.

FLAYS CRY OF SOCIALISM IN PARKERFIGHT Norris Tells Senate That Great Wealth Must Not Dominate Court. By United Press WASHINGTON, May 2—The supreme court must be kept from domination by great aggregations of wealth, Chairman Norris of the senate judiciary committee told the senate today, opposing the confirmation of John ‘J.

hardly be accused of socialistic tendencies, the Nebraskan added. “It is a citizen’s duty to criticise public officials when they ought to be criticised,” Norris said. “Such criticism will help to keep the fires of liberty burnings on the altars of human freedom. “Every step of civilization has been made by someone in the minority with courage to step out and blaae the way against doubt and superstition.” Before Norrttf spoke, Senator Black (Dem., Ala.) introduced a portion of the record in the Red Jacket coal case in which Parker as circuit court judge upheld the antiunion or “yellow dog” contract. Black said the restraining order prevented union miners from sending money, food and doctors to those on strike, on the theory such help would interfere with the company’s business. Senator Overman (Dem., N. C.) who has been defending Parker, presented several telegrams which opposed confirmation. One, from the central labor union of Durham, N. C., criticised Overman for “helping the Repubican party confirm this man as a master political stroke to capture your home state.” Another opposing Parker came from the Brotherhood of Railway Employees in convention in Chicago.

50 REPORTED INDICTED FOR BOOZEPLOTS Federal Jury Finishes Quiz Into Liquor Situation in West Indiana. TIPOFF RUMOR DENIED Purported U. S. Agent Is Declared Giving Out Suspects’ Names. Federal grand jurors this afternoon were to return a report to Judge Robert C. Baltzell after ten days' investigation into activities of alleged rum rings in Vigo and Vermillion counties. It is predicted about fifty persons will be named in the report and it is possible the entire group will be charged with conspiracy to violate the prohibition law, it was learned. Since the jury began the probe, it has heaitl more than 100 witnesses, including federal offiicals and agents and business men, farmers, bootleggers and rum runners and other persons living in the two counties under investigation and in Missouri and Illinois. Started Six Weeks Ago Investigation in the alleged booze activities were started in the section more than six weeks ago in the government’s effort to stamp out the reported “still-on-every-hill” situation there. Prior to that, agents had been working on the scene after the daring murder of George Aidux, said to have known much about the alleged operations, in Terre Haute several months before. Aidux died within a block of the police station when he was the target for the bullets of a submachine gun. The government has made raids in the vicinity during the last few weeks and confiscated thirteen stills with total capacity of more than 10,000 gallons. From various sources, it was learned results of the investigation may not be as “startling and big” as at first predicted. Through for Present It is said the jury will consider the situation cleaned up for the present when the report is made. Authorities, however, have guarded witnesses and have refused to issue any statements in connection with the quiz. It has been apparent that gang revenge against witnesses and investigators was feared. The jury’s probe, it is said, took in not only the alleged manufacturing angle of the situation, but also the boasts of protection said to have been made by alleged bootleggers and still operators. It was charged part of the money paid for each five-gallon tin of “alky” obtained from bootleggers in the vicinity was set aside to strengthen an eloborate protection system functioning in the manufacturing area and as an aid to rum runners in taking booze to customers. Terre Haute, according to reports, is the headquarters for the gang leaders and their lieutenants, while Clinton has been spotted as the “pay off” place, where protection funds are reported to have been received from gang operators.

To Link Operations The jury’s report is expected to tie up the alleged operations in Terre Haute and Clinton with the operation of the enormous still at Montezuma, confiscated last December. Ten men, now are under arrest, are to be tried in federal court in June for this offense. Authorities still are silent on reports that a man, said to be representing himself as a federal officer, has made “the rounds” at Terre Haute informing persons they were going to be indicted and “had better get ready.” Alf Meloy, United States marshal, says the matter is being investigated. He denied any one in his office is connected with it, despite reports to the contrary. MINERS MAP DEMANDS Anthracite Group to Ask Operators for Wage-Scale Parley.
