GROAT United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright. 1931, bv United Press in all Countries) NEW ORK, June 15.—Stanley taithfull and his family believe that Starr Faithfull was murdered. They told the United Press this today, at the same time unfolding a story, revolting and amazing, of incidents in her childhood which colored her after life and made her a girl of many moods—bordering on the confusing areas between the sane and insane. It was a story of sex, the Faithfull family revealed exclusively to the United Press, in which, they said, she was the victim of a man old enough to be her father and with children of his own.
The girl’s body was found by a beachcomber on the sandg of Long Beach, L. 1., more than a week ago, and today the cause of her death is still a mystery. But to Stanly Faithfull and his family, the case gets down to the Incidents of her childhood fundamentally. Somehow —they can’t altogethr explain it—the tragedy of her death goes back down the years when the man in question made her read to him extracts of sex writings of Havelock Ellis, and, they say, otherwise maltreated her. Story Is Shocking Their story as outlined to the United Press is in many respects unprintable. The man in question is prominent and well-to-do, a respected member of the community in which he lives. He has children of his own. He was, according to the parents, “kind” to Starr and later to her pretty sister, Tucker. The kindness and philanthrophy, they told the United Press, were a cloak for a relationship that lasted for years and came to light only five years ago, through an incident In a New York hotel. The man etherized or chloroformed the girl on occasions and had, through his maltreatment, warped her mind, Faithfull said. There are records of Starr writing of trips with the man to hotels at several points. s
“Kindness” Cloaks Vileness The man’s “kindness” cloaked his deeds, according to the Faithfulls, but one day she came home, distraught and troubled, and told of a night in a New York hot ;1, at the recollection of which she shuddered. She confided certain facts, and then the whole story of the man’s maltreatment came from her.. Faithfull checked up, and to his horror found that many of the things the girl had related were verified. The Faithfulls debated the course to pursue.

TRAFFIC CODE TO BEREVISED Change to Allow Impounding of Autos. City councilmen will meet in special session at 8 tonight to revise the new traffic ordinance to permit impounding of cars parked in the downtown area from 7 to 9:15 a. m. Enforcement of the new traffic rules, started last Monday, was halted when it was found the early morning parking ban section inadvertently had been omittted from the section providing for impounding of Improperly parked cars. Enforcement of the parking ban section, if corrected by councilmen tonight, can not be renewed for about two weeks, until it has been advertised. In the meantime, police will continue enforcing other sections of the ordinance, Captain Lewis Johnson said. . Placing of metal markers on North Meridian street, setting off traffic lanes, may be started Tuesday, Johnson said. When these are installed the traffic rule requiring motorists to kep to the lane nearest the curb or four-lane streets, except when overtaking and passing cars, will be enforced.

EDISON PRODUCES SYNTHETIC RUBBER
By United Press FT. MEYERS, Fla., June 15. Thomas A. Edison terminated his forty-eighth Florida winter vacation today with the announcement he had successfully vulcanized synthetic rubber made from golden rod. The 84-year-old inventor, accompanied by Mrs. Edison and their son, Charles, boarded a train early for the long ride home to Orange, N. J. Edison’s long experiments with an emergency rubber supply for the federal government—from which he expects to reap no monetary reward —nearly are completed. His friends expect he soon will construct a large scale extraction factory and plant approximately 1,000 acres of golden rod on the Henry Ford plantation near Savannah, Ga. Ford is intensely interested in Edison's rubber experiments. The inventor’s aim is to afford the national government an emergency war-fime supply in event tropica^
Manager Corriden Resigns Johnny (Red) Corriden, hustling and peppery pilot of the Indians, stepped down and out of the Tribe i pilot post today. In his place, beginning tonight and for the re- ! mainder of the season, Emmett McCann, first baseman, will direct : the team on the field. McCann was appointed by Owner . Norman Perry shortly after Corri--1 den handed in his resignation. Johnny said lie regretted to give i way, but felt he had given his best ! efforts without a satisfactory meas- | sure of success and decided to permit another manager to tackle the task. Owner Perry also expressed surprise over Corriden’s move, although there have been signs indicating a change for the last week. It is known that Corriden never was satisfied with his pitching staff and often remarked that the hurlers on hand were not sufficiently effective to place the Indians in the pennant fight. In a statement by Perry, the Tribe owner said he appreciated Corriden’s hard work and loyalty to both team and fans and hoped that the new manager, McCann, would carry on with the same spirit. McCann was obtained from Columbus during the spring training period in a trade for outfielder Ollie Tucker and has been in the American Association long enough to understand the type of baseball played and the hazards confronting a manager.
PLAYGROUNDS OPENEDIN CITY Swimming Pools in Five Parks Put in Use Today. Five municipal swimming pools and forty-six playgrounds formally were opened for the season at 9 a. m. today, under direction of H. Walden Middles worth, city recreation director. Opening of the two municipal bathing beaches was delayed pending further tests of water by the health board. Pools opened are Garfield, Ellenberger, Rhodius, Willard and Douglas. They will be open from 9 a. m. to 9 p. m. daily, including Sunday. Children will be admitted from 9 a. m. to 12 daily in the pools.

Becker charged that the modern editor will “tell you that good government is not news.”
supplies of natural rubber are cut off. He plans to give the entire project to the government. Experiments of the aged inventor have been two-fold here—chemical and bontanical. While he has devoted his energies to perfecting a practical extraction plant, a crew of bontanists have been at work breeding goldenrod to increase the rubber content. Both experiments now are about 89 per cent completed. Edison has completed a working model of his extraction plant, consisting of a series of eight boilers connected b rubber and glass tubing with a ? ce bump between each. A thick ju , s made from pulverized golden rc leaves and stems are forced th? -ugh the boilers, undergoing a distillation process which eliminates all the rubber “latex.” With golden rod as the base of emergency supply, rubber could be produced, Edison estimates, in six months instead of the six years now required by any other known process.

350 DROWNED AS SHIP TIPS OVERJN GALE Only Seven Men Are Saved in French Excursion Boat Disaster. 60 BODIES WASHED UP Passengers Crowd to One Side and Huge Wave Upsets Craft. By United Press ST. NAZAIRE, France, June 15. The beaches of the Bay of Biscay for twenty miles below the mouth of the Loire river were strewn today with bodies of victims w’ho were on the excursion boat St. Philbert, sunk in the worst steamship catastrophe in France’s maritime history. The dead were estimated at a minimum of 350 persons, more than half of them women and children. The St. Philbert sank in a hurricane at dusk Sunday evening with nearly 400 persons, the families of French workers returning from a day’s outing. Fishermen found sixty bodies, mainly women and children, washed up on the beaches between the villages of Pornic and Fromentine. below St. Nazaire on the south side of the Loire. Tugs searched hopelessly for possible survivors of the tragedy. So far, only seven were known to have been saved. Blame Frightened Passengers The seven survivors included four Frenchmen, two Austrians and one Pole. The owners of the St. Philbert, the Messageries De L’Quest of Nantes, said they did not have the names of all the passengers on board, but doubted that any Americans were among them. Government experts questioned survivors and decided that the tragic accident was not due to overloading the boat, but to the fright of passengers who crowded to the starboard side to escape the wind and huge waves breaking over the little vessel. The rush to one side caused the St. Philbert to list at least 30 degrees. . On an angle like that, the expert said, the next big wave easily turned it over and the ship sank, keel up, in less than a minute. Not Five Miles Out The Saint Philbert went, down in plain view of the semaphore station at Saint Gildas Point. The excursian boat, filled with a happy holiday crowd, was not five miles out as it skirted the coast on its homeward journey to Nantes, up the Loire. The men in the station stood helpless and watched the struggle as the captain of the pleasure boat sought to bring his ship around into the gale before the wave which tipped it struck. He failed. The men could only telephone to send tugboats and other ships to its aid. The chief of the station, Francois Guillaume, said: “The Saint Philbert maneuvered well to avoid the rising storm. It rounded Saint Gildas Point about three miles out because of the danger of being driven on the rocks, but when she headed for the Loire Estuary rain and the gale caught her broadside. She swiftly keeled to starboard, evidently due to the rush of the excited passengers. Sank in Quick Time “The boat then seeemed to turn toward shore, as though the ceptain realized the danger of espying his port to the waves and wind. At that moment the ship turned over. She sank within three minutes. The passengers were thrown into the water. “The rescue tug Pornic was in danger many times as it fought into the gale, its decks washed by the rough waves on its way to the scene of the disaster.” Most of the desd on the Saint Philbert belonged to families at Saint Nazaire and Nantes. Almost' all were of the working class. Nearly 100 passengers on the excursion to the island of Noir-Mou-tier were saved because of their prudence. They decided to spend the night on the island in the bay rather than risk the return journey in the face of the threatening storm. Survivor Describes Tragedy Albert Berthy, one of the survivors, who reached St. Nazaire amid sad scenes as hundreds peered anxiously at the resuce tugs for word of their relatives, described his experiences to the United Press correspondent. Berthy said: “The outward crossing to the island was rough toward the end and many got sick. Probably 100 of the excursion, ill and noticing the wind increasing, decided to remain at Noirmoutier over night and cross to the mainland at Pornic today, taking a train to St. Nazaire. “My watch stopped at 6:30 p. m., the moment we were thrown into the water. I am cominced that the accident was due to the fear of 300 passengers who gathered in starboard cabins and on deck because of the blinding gale and rain. They rushed to that side desoite the heroic efforts of the crew’ to divide the weight. Two Fall From Lifeboat “I’m convinced that the St. Philbert could have come around despite the gale, for it has outridden worse storms. “With the ship keeling over 30 degrees, a forty-foot wave caught the port side and rolled the ship over, spilling water on others trapped in their cabins. “The storm made swimming difficult. Dozers sank within the space of a minute or two.”
PRESIDENT HOOVER TO BE CITY’S GUEST TONIGHT; 5,000 WILL BE PRESENT AT FAIRGROUND DINNER
Address by Executive Is Heralded as Keynote for 1932 Campaign. PARADE ROUTE IS SET Soldiers and Members of Patriotic Societies to Join in March. BY BEN STERN Fraught with the utmost importance to the Republican party, both in the state and in the nation, the visit of President Herbert Hoover to Indianapolis and his address tonight at the state fairground took the center of the national affairs stage today. The President’s enunciation was today the principal topic of speculation among Republicans and Democrats, for the address which is to be broadcast over the NBC and Columbia networks is the kick-off in the 1932 political campaign. Five thousand Republican partisans have come here to gain inspiration from their leader and be heartened sufficiently to return to their homes and labor to prevent a repetition of the Democratic gains of 1929 and 1930. Theirs is the duty to sustain the faltering and keep the disaffected in line. Conies to Woo Midwest Thousands of Democratic leaders and strategists and the anti-ad-ministration Republicans eagerly are awaiting the address with the intention of obtaining ammunition for their attacks on the Hoover administration. The President’s visit to Indianapolis, Marion, 0., and Springfield, 111., is likened to a wooing of the mid-west. But it is here that his important political utterance is to be made. Indianapolis was selected by administration strategists because it is at the borderline of agriculture and industry. And when the invitation of the Indiana Republican Editorial Association was received, it was eagerly acepted. President Hoover's fate rests with the pivotal mid-west and especially Indiana. New Uprising Feared It is recalled that in 1928 the Indiana delegation to the Republican national convention was pledged to Senator James E. Watson and the farm leaders of this state, headed by Lieutenant-Governor Edgar D. Bush, led the failing battle against the nomination of Hoover. There always is the i>ossibility that the agricultural group in the delegation may seize it again and protest against renomination of the President. The address of the President is expected to allay doubts in the minds of these disaffected and offer a panacea for the depression. Three weeks ago the Hoover dinner began to bear the aspects of a failure. Instead of the 5,000 expected. it appeared that only 2,000 or 3,000 would attend. It even was found necessary to send out party workers to awaken interest. Party Here at 4:30 Energetic work and efforts of Harry Fenton, secretary of the Republican state committee, Paul R. Bausman, president of the Editorial Association, and Neil D. McCallum and Frederick E. Schortemeier, former secretary of state, are responsible for the success of the dinner. All arrangements have been completed and as soon as the escort planes are seen hovering and circling over the city this afternoon the machinery for the reception and dinner will begin automatically. The President and Mrs. Hoover and their Son Allan, PostmasterGeneral and Mrs. Walter F. Brown, Robe Carl White, assistant secretary of labor, and others of the party, including approximately thirty correspondents and newsreel operators, upon their arrival here at 4:30 o’clock this afternoon, will be met by a reception committee headed by Bausman and including Oscar G. Foellinger, 1928 Hoover primary manager; Mrs. Samuel E. Boys, wife of the new president of the association; Mrs. Harriet Toner, Anderson publisher; Senator James E.

Albert Delaney, 40, of 1809 H Shelby street, watchman at the building, told police squads he was called from the basement shortly after 1:30 a. m. by an elevator call to the fourth floor. He said when he opened the elevator door, one of two men jammed a revolver into his chest and ordered him to stand in a comer of the lift. The armed burglar led Delaney to a washroom where he stood guard over him until after 2:30, Delaney told police. He said the man ordered that “some of you guys go to the Metropolitan Insurance Company, on the fourth floor, and the rest of you go i to the Community Finance Comt pany, on the second floor.”

Delaney said the armed burglar ordered Delaney to stay in the washroom until 3 p. m. or “we’ll shoot hell out of you.” The safe crackers smashed a small safe and knocked the combination of a large one in the insurance office, but failed to open it. In the finance company office they ransacked the office and battered off the combination of a safe. Officials of both companies told po- 1 lice nothing was taken. Delaney told police the burglar who held him at bay with the revolver and another whom they saw wore hoods over their faces and heads and wore gloves. Sledge hammers, chisels and punches used in smashing the strong box had been stolen from the basement building. Police said tlfi safe opening efforts were “thoe of amateurs.” (
