Appropriation cf $625,567 for operation of city hospital in 1931 was asked today by Business Manager Clarence Hess, who submitted the hospital budget to the health board. The request is an increase of $74,000 over last year’s appropriation and provides for additional cost of maintaining 122 additional beds, the operation of the outpatient department's new quarters, anew laundry and power plant. There are no salary increases in the budget, but salary for twentyfive additional employes. Extra telephone operators, nurses and attendants arc requested. Hess pointed out that on a basis of 71 per cent occupancy of the 122 extra beds, the hospital would be entitled to SIOI,OOO increase, but that Dr. William A. Doeppers, superintendent had agreed to keep the request as low as possible. Last year’s council complimented the hospital authorities on the business judgment used in making up the budget, it being practically the only departmental request which was not slashed mercilessly.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

CONAN DOYLE’S WIDOW CLAIMS SPIRITSPEAKS Family Sure Author Visited Memorial Service and Talked to Medium. BY HENRY T. RUSSELL. United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, July 14.—The family of the late Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, author and spiritualist, was convinced today that lie had communicated with them from the spirit world. Lady Doyle testified that a message, which was transmitted to her during a memorial service at Albert hall Sunday night, was “beautiful and evidential,” but she would not reveal what it said. “It is a secret to me, so I can not say what it was,” she said when questioned about the contents after the meeting. The message from Sir Arthur came through in the midst of the services in memory of him. Mrs. Estelle Roberts, a medium who was sitting on the platform during the service, turned suddenly to Lady Doyle, crying: “He's here.” Chair Left Vacant Sir Arthur, Mrs. Roberts said, was sitting next to Lady Doyle, in a chair which had been left vacant purposely. Sir Arthur was clad in evening dress, Mrs. Roberts said, and gave her a message for his wife. Mrs. Roberts would not reveal the message, but she said it concerned another member of the Doyle family and referred to an incident which occurred only Sunday morning, and which was known only to Lady Doyle and the other member of the family. There was a marked absence of grief at the memorial services, which lasted more than two hours and which Sir Arthur’s four children attended along with Lady Doyle. Thousands crowded Albert hall, and while their conduct was reserved, they laughed once or twice when speakers referred to Sir Arthur’s fancies. Little Sorrow Shown Only twice was there any evidence of sorrow. Once was when Ernest Oaten, well-known English spiritualist who was speaking, raised his hand toward the heaven and cried loudly; “We thank you. God bless you, Doyle.” The eyes of many listeners filled with tears as he paused after the words, as they had earlier in the service, during two minutes of silence after the first prayer. Lady Doyle sat almost immobile during most of the service, although she glanced deliberately toward the empty chair beside her several times. Sir Arthur’s two sons and two daughters also held themselves in restraint, but they quietly joined others in the hall in the laughter. Woman Attempts Suicide Mrs. Pauline Faust, 217*4 Geisendorf street, was in serious condition at city hospital today after she attempted to commit suicide Saturday night. Domestic troubles were blamed for the suicide attempt.

COPS TO FIGHT RED DOCTRINES URGEDBY ROOT U. S. Has No Force to War on Propaganda, Points Out Noted Jurist. Pu United Press NEW YORK, July 14.—The congressional committee inquiring into Communist propaganda in the United States, scheduled to begin hearings here Tuesday, had before it today a suggestion by Elihu Root for the creation of a special federal police force to combat such propaganda. Root’s proposal was made in a letter to Ralph M. Easley, executive secretary of the national civic federation. Calling attention to the fact that there are special organizations of federal officers to enforce the customs laws, the internal revenue laws, the counterfeiting laws and the prohibition laws. Root pointed

out that there Is no group exercising general police authority. “Now we have reason to believe that an assault Is being made by secret means, supported by the resources of a great empire, aimed at the destruction of our system of government,” Root’s letter said, “And we find that the federal government has no police force available for our protection. Os course, such a force ought to be provided.” Root made no specific reference to the Soviet government. Easley predicted that an organ!-
