They had come from the region of Chateau-Champlatreaux and drove on Soissons. The names of ttflfee shock divisions will live in history. The

Truck Dives Off Road, Bursts Into Flame; One Man Injured

Pictured above are remnants of a mammoth cross-country truck and trailer, and their merchandise cargo which burned after an ac-

$7,500 Cargo Destroyed as Blast Follows Crash; Driver Is Dazed. Careening off the road and bursting into flames, a large truck and trailer carrying about $7,500 worth of merchandise was destroyed today two and one-half miles north of Flackville. Henry Hicks, 22, of Chicago, driver of the freight truck, suffered leg injuries and severe cuts when the truck crashed into a tree more than twenty-three feet from the road. A terrific explosion preceded the fire and was followed by a series of minor blasts which added to the destruction of the merchandise. Hicks told Deputy Sheriffs Fox and Ollie Mays that he lost control of the truck on a sharp curve. He was found in the center of the road after ‘ the truck burst into flames. Trailer Overturned He was unable to tell officers whether he was thrown from the truck, jumped out or ran from the wreckage. Firemen from engine house 9 battled the flames for more than two hours. James Kirby, operator of a filling station near the accident scene, said the flames shot more than eighty feet into the air after the crash and first explosion. The trailer overturned, throwing the merchandise into a pile that roared with flames. The truck carried hundreds of large cans, believed to have contained glucose, dozens of rolls of leather, child’s toys, plumbing equipment, wall paper and canned vegetables and fruits. Kirby said he saw the truck as he opened his filling station and then heard the crash and the blast. As he ran to the scene, he said, Hicks was standing on the road weaving. Then he collapsed. The driver was stunned and unable to give his name or talk coherently. Mrs. Ruth Barnhill, living on the Dandy trail, obtained her car and rushed Hicks to the hospital, where it was more than an hour before he could talk to attaches. Consigned to City Belief that another man might, have been pinned beneath The wreckage kept fireman and sheriff’s deputies working on the,scene until the fire was extinguished. Hicks however said he was alone. Hicks also told police he believed the combined value of the merchandise and truck would total $15,000. He said he owned the truck, although it bore the sign “Chicago Truck, Robert M. Cutting Comoany.” But little of the merchandise was salvaged and the truck and trailer were masses of twisted steel when the flames finally died. Hicks said he was taking the goods to the Universal Carloading and Distributing Company, 202 South West street. Part of the goods was consigned to the Central Supply Company and the HamiltonHarris Company of this city. BOOZE SEIZED $2,000 Whisky Shipment Is Held by Dry Agents. Canadian liquor, with alleged retail value of almost $2,000, was in the hands of federal dry agents today, they said, after they confiscated three cases of “canned goods” at the Big Four railroad freight house on Thursday. George Dion, 4000 East Thirtyeighth street, said to have held the bill of lading for the merchandise, was held under $2,500 bond for the federal grand jury, when arraigned before Howard S. Young, United States commissioner. Three large packing cases each held five smaller cartons, each of which was packed with two dozen •pints of whisky, dry sleuths said. The bottles were packed, each in an airtight tin. The dry agents questioned W. E. Peats, drayman, when he appeared with the bill of lading for the goods, consigned to Belber Brothers. Peats said Dion hired him to deliver the boxes.

TURK, 156, NOT SEEKING WIFE Zaro Agha Now Living With His Eleventh Mate. Bu United Press PROVINCE, R. 1., July 18.—Zaro Agha, who claims to have positive proof that he was bom Feb. 16, 1774, arrived today from his native Turkey aboard the S. S. Sinaia, not, he said emphatically, in search of a wife. Reporters who greeted him expected to find a wizened old gentleman looking fully his 156 summers, but were met by a rather affable person in conventional American attire—light gray felt hat, blue serge suit, and a bamboo cane. He looked to be about 85 dr 90, according to some, and the only indication of extreme age was his furrowed skin, which had taken on a somewhat leathery appearance. Zaro Agha can not talk English but his great-great-grandson, Ashmut Musa, who is 33, acted as interpreter. “I want you gentlemen to understand one thing,” Agha said, “and that is that I am not looking for a wife. I have had eleven wives and am now living with my eleventh, who is 64. I married her four years ago and I am very sorry she could not accompany me to America. She is back in Constantinople. We are very happily married and I want the good women of America to know that I am not in the marriage market.”

REPLIES IN CHURCH ATTACK ON LEGION Bodenhamer Reiterates Stand on Matters of Religion. Creed of the American Legion of refusing to take part in any religious or political matters, was reiterated today by O. L. Bodenhamer, national commander of the legion.

The motion was tabled until Sept. 16. Bodenhamer said the legion is made up of members of all religious and political faiths.

Caldwell promised to co-operate with the board in rushing the work. Work was held up by sub-con-tractors at the beginning of the contract.

Work on the runways is progressing satisfactorily under R, McCallum, Danville, 111., contractor, officials said.

They met in frontal attack fortyfive enemy divisions—more than half a million enemy soldiers in trenches lined with machine guns. These men faced steel that was as wind-driven sleet. When one of the enemy fell, four of the Americans or allied soldiers fell. Great assaulting divisions were shot to remnants. Still the remnant of the once mighty assaulting force went forward, took the enemy machine gun trenches and captured more than 20,000 enemy prisoner* and 400 cannon.

Fire Insurance Taxes Have Gone Uncollected, Says Accounts Head. BY DANIEL M. KIDNEY Another huge state administration revnue leak, similar in a measure to the bootleg gasoline business, and alleged to have cost Indiana thousands of dollars in non-payment of tax, was unearthed at the statehouse today. This latest failure to collect tax is in the office of Clarence Wysong, state insurance commissioner, according to Lawrence F. Orr, chief examiner of the state board of accounts. Orr predicts that the total may reach “many thousands of dollars” and has assigned two men to trace the losses through Wyson’s books. Those assigned are Field Examiners Edward Brennan and Ralph Hesler. The work already is under way, Orr declared. Based on Ogden Opinion “Our investigation is based on a recent opinion from Attorney-Gen-eral Ogden,” Orr explained. “Ogden has ruled that the one-half of one per cent tax on all fire insurance premiums must be paid by all companies writing fire insurance. “We have learned that this tax now is being collected only on out-and-out fire insurance companies, which writ sno other policies. But numerous casualty companies write fire insurance and have been escaping this tax. ‘“They pay only the three per cent tax on their life insurance premiums. In other words, they have been “bootlegging” fire insurance, tax-fiee, in the same manner that the gasoline has been bootlegged.” Attempt to Collect When the field examiners’ report is received it will be turned over to the attorney-general’s office in an effort to collect on back premiums, Orr said. He asserted that present information justifies the prediction that thousands of dollars have been lost to the state in this manner. The money, under the fee law, belongs to the state fire marshal’s fund, but the budget law puts all these special funds into the general state treasury, where they are reappropriated to the various departments, including the state fire marshal. Several thousands of dollars already have been collected by the board of accounts from Ohio companies on the 3 per cent tax, Orr said. The company paid as much as $40,000 back tax, he said. These collections are based on a court ruling denying reciprocity between Ohio and Indiana, it was said.

ASSESSMENT OF GAS COMPANY IS REDUCED Cut of 51,545,801 From Original Is Granted by Tax Board. Citizens Gas Company total assessments today were reduced $1,545,801 by the state tax board, to $12,635,070. Citizens Gas Company properties originally assessed this year at $8,628,371, were reduced $1,200,001, while properties of the Indianapolis Gas Company, leased by Citizens company, originally assessed at $5,552,500, were reduced $345,800. New assessment total is $12,635,070. In 1529 the total assessment was $11,435,070 Original figures this year were too high, James Showalter, beard secretary, explained. This week the board also reduced Indianapolis Power and Light Company’s assessments one million dollars.

MOSES FIRES BITTER BLAST AT SEA PACT Unleashes Fiery Attack on Hoover and Stimson in Senate Speech. FLINGS STINGING BARBS Brands Secretary of State as 'Laird of Stanmore’ in His Attack. Bu Vnitfd Press WASHINGTON, July 18.-C’ • jeclmg to what he described as “the indecent haste with which consideration of this treaty is being pressed." Senator Moses of New Hampshire, chairman of the Republican senatorial campaign committee and a Republican senate leader, condemned the London naval pact today and urged its rejection. His speech was sharp and sarcastic. He finished it with the remark that he was thankful of the opportunity to speak today “outside the shadow of the garotte,” referring to the threat of cloture or night sessions made by Majority Leader Watson. President Hoover and Secretary of State Stimson, Moses said, had “seriously offended the representatives of the American people” by the manner and method of placing the treaty before the senate. Refuse to Agree on Time Opposition senators, among whom Moses is a leader, said today they would refuse to agree for a time to vote on the treaty. Senator Reed (Rep., Pa.) said he would remind senators they were expected to remain in session tonight as long as a quorum could be held and again Saturday night. Reed and Watson found could not obtain sufficient votes to' impose the cloture immediately and now contemplating holding their petition to attain a final vote probably Friday or Saturday next week. Although Moses said in his speech today he would support reservations and propose one amendment to the text of the treaty, he declared its complete text could not be satisfactorily handled in that manner. Ridicules Secretary of State “A closer study,” Moses said, “has brought me substantially to the point of believing that there is no method of dealing with this treaty except through naked rejection of it.” Moses ridiculed Stimson as the “Laird of Stanmore,” having refer* ence to the country estate near London leased by Stimson during the London conference. “We are handed the document (the treaty) with sparse and inconclusive statements of its purpose and are told somewhat superciliously by the Laird of Stanmore that we must take it or leave it in its nakedness,” he said referring to President Hoover’s refusal to make secret negotiation documents public. Lashes Premier MacDonald Denying the treaty provided limitation, Moses said it “spells naval competition,” and would entail “unwarranted” expense on the taxpayer. Great Britain, Moses said, was nob interested in naval limitation until “the American congress by overwhelming vote provided for fifteen new cruisers.” The United States made “all the material concessions" l at London, he said. Moses described Prime Minister MacDonald as the “charming and seductive prime minister of England” who had invited the United States to take parity “full and brimming over.” The senate objected that Japan had increased her navy. Mrs. Stimson heard Moses’ speech from a seat in the gallery.
