BUS BILL FRAUD CHARGES ARE STUDIED BY JUDGE

ERROR ALSO TO BLAME, CIRCUIT COURTIS TOLD Ruling Is Withheld on Measure; Probe to Continue. CONFUSION- IS RECALLED Attorneys Are Advised to File Briefs by Chamberlin. Testimony and court records Indicating fraud and mistake in the passage of House Bill 6 were taken under advisement today by Circuit Judge Harry O. Chamberlin. Judgo Chamberlin advised attorney's to file briefs in the case upon conclusion of a hearing in circuit court Thursday on a petition to enjoin the secretary of state from publishing the act, regulating bus transportation. A temporary restraining order against publication will remain in effect until September when further arguments in the case will be heard. Bolster Fraud Charges Testimony was introduced Thursday to bolster charges that fraud had been perpetrated upon the Speaker of the Indiana house of representatives and the president of the senate by delivery of an unauthorized messasge, concerning House Bill 6, between the two legislative bodies. Attorneys for the cities of Muncie and Indianapolis, fighting to kill the bill which strips municipalities of their control 'of bus transpdttation, questioned leaders of the legislature regarding the passage of the bus bill. i A certification of the bill by its author, William Conner, that the enrolled bill contained all amendments’* was pointed out by plaintiff attorneys as another element of fraud in the case. Records Referred To House records revealed the house of representatives never concurred in senate amendments to the bill. These amendments stripped cities of their power to regulate busses and trucks. Further testimony by LieutenantGovernor Edgar D. Bush, president of the senate, that “a conference committee member reported to him that the house had concurred” was read into the court record. Statements by Dick Heller, clerk of the house of representatives, that he had not read a message in the senate stating “the house had concurred in amendments” conflicted with testimony of other important witnesses. Weiss Is on Stand Representative Jacob Weiss told the court that “Heller delayed taking a message to the Governor demanding the bill be returned to the house for correction.” “I had a conversation with Heller, after a motion to recall the bill had passed, and Heller told me that he thought there was no use going to office for the bill because it already had been signed,” Weiss declared. Judge Chamberlin told attorneys the case would be continued until fall, since there was no real emergency for deciding it at present. Prosecutor Herbert E. Wilson prepared* to continue grand jury investigation of fraud surrounding the bill’s passage after he had listened to the testimony In circuit court. The retiring grand jury Thursday recommended its investigation be continued. Confusion Is Recalled Other witnesses Thursday included Representative Gerritt Bates, Marion county; Herbert M. Spencer, assistant city attorney; Representative Russell J. Dean and State Senators John L. Niblack and Winfield Miller. During Heller’s delay in delivering the message of recall to the Governor, witnesses testified he conferred with Harvey Harmon, former member of the public service commission, who was acting as parliamentarian. On cross-examination, Heller testified: “I asked Harmon if he thought the bill could be returned after the Governor had signed it." When Heller went to Governor Harry G. Leslie, with the request, Leslie told him to return to the house and see if the recall motion would not be withdrawn, testimony at the hearing disclosed. This happened on the last night of legislature amid confusion and disturbance, the court was told. AMERICA GREATEST, MACDONALD ASSERTS Premier of Britain Calls U. S. World’s Outstanding Nation.

Keeping Cool —No. 4 Heat, Not Suns Rays, Found Cause of Stroke

By Science Service LONDON, July 3.—Heat alone is the cause of heat stroke, and ultraviolet rays have no part in its production, it appears from experiments reported to the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine here by Dr. Frank Marsh, pathologist to the Anglo-Persian Oil Company. Dr. Marsh studied the effect of the sun on rabbits under varying conditions. In one experiment, the rabbits were entirely exposed to the sun, but half of them were kept damp by repeated spraying with water. The effect of the spraying could be only that of cooling, as mere wetting could not keep the sun’s rays from penetrating the rabbits’ fur, Dr. Marsh explained. In the damp rabbits, no heat stroke developed and there was no marked rise in temperature except in one whose fur was accidentally allowed to dry. In the dry rabbits, on the other hand, only two out of fifteen survived, the rest succumbing to heat stroke. Bright sunlight and sun obscured by cloud and smoke caused best

MAN, 72, DROPS DEAD Joseph Fisher Victim of Heart Attack at City Plant. Joseph Fisher, 72, who lived with his son, Albert Berner, 910 Marion avenue, dropped dead of heart disease today at the plant of Hetherington & Berner, Inc. Mr. Fisher, a blacksmith, had been an employe of Hetherington & Berner for forty-one years. Deputy Coroner Emil Winters investigated.

stroke equally well, Dr. March found. In another experiment, the rabbits had their shaved heads exposed. while their bodies were kept cool in a special box with an ice jacket. After prolonged exposure, the rabbits were killed and carefully examined. No change was found in the nerve cells of their brains It was impossible to injure rabbits by exposing their heads to the sun, provided their bodies were kept cool, the experiment showed. On the other hand, an albino rabbit, with its head kept cool in the box and its body exposed to the sun, died after half an hour’s exposure. Dr. Marsh concluded that the rays of the sun had no direct action on the brain tissue of an exposed rabbit. He was uncertain whether it could be assumed that these results applied also to man. Dr. Marsh said his experiments indicated that the many different diseases with varying symptoms which are ascribed to the effect of the sun are really one disease. He suggested the name “hyperprexia due to heat” for this disease. ‘‘Hyperprexia” means a high degree of fever, - _ • r

WAGES SHRINK IN GERMANY TO POVERTY^ LEVEL ‘How Do You Expect Them to Live?' Cry of Chancellor. This is the fifth and list of a series on conditions in German;. BY FREDERICK KUH United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright. 1931. by United Press) BERLIN, July 3.—“ How do you expect them to live?” asked Chancellor Bruening, with a hopeless gesture, referring to Germany’s millions of unemployed and their dependents. The answer is a puzzle to sociologists, and is one of the things that President Herbert Hoover’s war debt plan is intended to solve. The chancellor was describing the misery of the 4,000,000 unemployed out of Germany’s population of 60,000,000, with theiir estimated 8,000,000 dependents—one-fifth of the popultaion. He pointed out that many of the unemployed men and women are the mainstays of families and are forced to rely solely on the dole or insurance relief of 50 to 70 marks monthly—sll.9o to $16.60. One-third Out of Jobs At present every third German industrial worker is without a job —enough to raise a critical situation by itself. A trade union federation investigation revealed that in 1929 the normal budget of the employed, skilled laborer’s family included a net income averaging 200 marks (about S4B a month), of which the head of the family earned 150 marks, and the wife and children combined contributed 50 marks. That was two years ago. Today, the income of the same family is 160 marks. That is poverty wages —nothing more. Some 4,000,000 employes are in a slightly better position, but 1,500,000 members of the middle class in Germany remain, and they—according to the trade union statistics—are on a lower scale economically than the manual laborers. Turn to Extremes They are professional folk, rentiers, pensioners, small shop keepers, and others who lost their savings during the inflation of the mark and now are completely unrooted and adrift. It is among this class that the Fascists and Communists are most active. And they get good response. These families provide fertile soil for recruits to extremist causes. For instance, the urban residential districts are smeared with “for rent” signs, mostly on large apartments which formerly were occupied by well-to-do families. It is with a sense of humiliation that they sublet their once lovely apartments for anything they can get. The German farmer is continuing to seek relief from today's and tomorrow’s privations, by mortgaging his future.

Moral Right By United Press NEW YORK, July 3.—“ By every canon of moral decency,” Norman Thomas, Socialist leader, believes Viscount and Lady Astor should turn over the $16,000,000 recently won here in an inheritance tax de--cision to the unemployed of New York. “You did not earn one penny of the $69,000,000 William Waldorf Astor gave his two sons before his death,” Thomas said in a cable to the Astors in their London (England) home. “This $16,000,000 refund should be given to assuage the poor of the city where this wealth was created.” This $16,000,000 refund was awarded as part of a $46,000,000 trust fund set aside by the the late William Waldorf Astor for his two sons, Waldorf Viscount Astor and John Jacob Astor, before his death.
