COUNTY BOARD 'FAVORS' HIGH SUPPLY BIDDERS Quarterly Contracts Given Firms Submitting ‘Best’ Estimates. Highest bidders were favored in five instances today when county commissioners awarded contracts for quarterly supplies for county institutions. Majority of the contracts were awarded to lowest bidders, * and commissioners defended the awards to high bidders by declaring “we allowed the contracts to the best bidders in those cases.” Although Commissioner Dow Vorhies denied that Thomas Ellis, commissioner-elect, had anything to do with letting the contracts, Ellis conferred with Vorhies and Commissioner George Snider throughout the morning. Ellis is spending must time art the courthouse. He does not take office until Jan. 1. Bids not allowed the lowest bidders included those for paper goods, to Ostermeyer Paper Company, $14.70, against a low bid of $14.55 by the Captol Paper Company; coffee and spices to the J. B. Bright & Son. $3.34%, against a bid of $2.63 by M. O’Connor Company; boiler compound to the Hoosier Chemical Company, third , highest bidder, and hospital supplies to the W. H. Armstrong Company. Vorhies said hospital supplies were purchased from Armstrong “because they like to use those supplies at the institution,” and that the “coffee and spices contract was given to O’Connor because O’Connor received the grocery contract.” 3 BOYS, ELDEST 5, ADMIT FIRING HOUSE Parents of Children Warned; Started Blaze With Matches. The thrill of seeing flames envelop a house and watching firemen at work has ended for three small boys, the oldest 5. In the office of Alfred Hogsten, state fire marshal, Tuesday afternoon, the boys are said to have confessed setting fire to a vacant house at 438 Concord street. The children, two of whom are brothers, 4 and 5, and a 3-year-old neighbor boy admitted the eldest of the trio crawled under the house and ignited it with matches he had j stolen from his home, investigators said. George Coogan, arson investigator and Captain Bernard Lynch of the city fire prevention department, warned parents of the boys and said no further action will be taken. I Damage to the structure was slight.
250 ATTENDING 2-DAY STATE HEALTH PARLEY Opening Session at Claypool Is Addressed by Physician. ‘‘Employment of a physician by an industrial concern, by a fraternal order, by an insurance company or by the state—all these outrage the basic relationship between physician and patient,” Dr. F. S. Crockett of Lafayette told doctors gathered at the Indiana state health j officers’ conference at the Claypool today. ‘‘The physician does not select his patient; the patient selects his physician,” Crockett said. ‘‘When you impose a doctor on to the sick, you destroy that confidential relationship.” Dr. Crockett's talk was on “Organized Medicine and Public Health Agencies.” Sessions were to continue this afternoon with talks by prominent health officials of the state. Approximately 250 are attending the two-day conference. M. E. CONFERENCE ON NEGRO NEARING CLOSE Washington Training School Head Will Speak Tonight. Devotions this morning led by the Rev. M. B.

MARION KNIFING KILLERCAUGHT Quarrel With Housekeeper Cause of Tragedy. Fty United Press MARION, Ind., Sept. 23.—Wallace Teal, 35, was being guarded in the jail of an adjoining county today, charged with the fatal stabbing of Mrs. Anna Galbreath, 30, his housekeeper, and shooting her mother, Mrs. Lucy Lloyd, 53. Teal, captured three hours after the tragedy, was rushed out of Grant county as a precautionary measure. Police believe that Teal became angered because Mrs. Galbreath planned to leave him today and go to live with her mother. The women were cleaning their prospective home when Teal entered. After stabbing Mrs. Galbreath, according to police reports, he obtained a shotgun and fired at Mrs. Lloyd as she fled from the house. Several slugs pierced her back. Physicians said the injuries probably would be fatal. Teal was captured in a building near his home. He offered no resistance. Police believe that the return of Earl Galbreath, Mrs. Galbreath’s husband, from the Indiana state prison, also incited Teal against his housekeeper. Mrs. Galbreath leaves her husband and two children. Teal has six children.

They recall faintly the auto accident when she was treated by strange persons as her head “hurt so.” But Kaydatta would be playing doll-house like any other child today if someone just had lost a minute to prevent her injury.

ROAD STRIKERS ARE GIVEN PAY Wages Forthcoming as 200 Stage Walkout. BY DICK MILLER After working for months without pay and living in tents and shacks, nearly 200 workmen on state road 36 today found themselves with money in their pockets and ambition to carry on. Payment of long due wages came suddenly Tuesday afternoon after truck drivers had walked away from their work in a strike that marked weeks of dissatisfaction, suffering and bickering. C. H. Hiatt, representative of the Sun Indemnity Company, holding the bond on the defunct William C. Johnson Trucking Company, paid majority of the workers’ wages that have been due them from April to Aug. 21. Financial supports of the construction work crumbled several weeks ago with the receivership and bankruptcy action of the trucking firm which had hired many of the men, and involved other subcontractors who declined to let go of their funds pending the money difficulties.

Somewhere today a 10-year-old boy, clad in overalls and barefoot, is following a trail to gold while his mother, frantic over his disappearance, believes he has been kidnaped. He is Theodore Steele, 10, of 110 North Noble street, who failed to return from school Tuesday afternoon. Mrs. Lucy Steele, his mother, told police she believed her son had gone with an elderly man who had promised him “lots of money.” “This old man has been talking to my son and promised him lots of money far away,” Mrs. Steele told police. “He told me, too, that he knew where there was money for my boy.” The boy was wearing only a white shirt in addition to the overalls, she said.

BY BEN STERN. Well, the political season is under way, now that the Marion County Gcrd Government Clvb has held a meeting and put various authorities on the pan. Secretly the front for the Coffin organization in the county, the Marion County Good Government Club has been masquerading under that name for several years. “Good government” means “Coffin government” to the members of this organization, headed by Roy Combs, former deputy sheriff. As Shakespeare w~:te in “The Tempest,” “Thou dost here usurp the name thou ownest not.” Unlike the Irvingtcn Republican Club, which is frankly and avowedly a G. O. P. organization, the Good Government Club seeks to operate as a nonpartisan group until election time rolls around, when its leaders. Coffin precinct committeemen, become active in furthering the affairs of the —'-’"e candidates. Now consider the Irvington club, which seeks to do constructive good for its party. * * In line with this program, the members, at their meeting Monday night, asserted that the r ~ O. P. rank and file should have a voice in formulating platform principles and authorized appointment' ol *

Richey, 1235 Bright street, took a good squint at the mystery ship from municipal airport as it banked over Indianapolis at 12:30 Tuesday afternoon, and he judged witfiin ten feet its height from the ground. The ship flew at 1,610 feet, while Richey’s estimate was an even 1,600. To him, goes the second pair of free night airplane rides over the city Thursday night as the guest of The Times and Central Aeronautical Corporation at municipal airport. Second in the second day’s contest, and winner of a single free ride was R. G. McKinney, 435 East Louisiana street, with his calculation of 1,475 feet, 135 feet off the actual altitude. Little Too High Third, and winner of two season tickets to the dedication of municipal airport Friday, Saturday and Sunday was W. G. Kreis with an estimate of 1,750 feet.

PEACE PLEA SENT BY CHINA TO U. S.
Japan’s Invasion Branded Violation of Kellogg Anti-War Pact. (Continued from Page One)
nese troops, the real cause leading to the invasion of China by the the Japanese army was the fact that some Japanese “hot-headed” junior officers acted on their own initiative and precipitated the clash, because they took exception to the “weak-kneed policy” of their superior officers and their government in the northeastern provinces of China. Recall Outrage of 1915 It is the firm conviction of the undersigned that Japan is trying today what it did in 1915. When the nations of the west were struggling in the throes of the World war, Japan imposed the infamous “twenty-one demands” upon China. While the nations of the west today are confronting serious problems affecting their economic stability, and while China is preoccupied with the work of providing relief for the millions of starving victims of the recent floods, and with the conduct of campaigns toward suppression of communistic avtivities, Japan again takes advantage of China’s misfortune and preoccupation to attempt the annexation of long coveted territory belonging. to a friendly neighbor. Violation of Kellogg Accord The systematic and sudden attack upon and occupation of an extensive area of Chinese territory by Japan’s armies is conclusive and irrefutable evidence of a premeditated plan of conquest by Japan, which belies the Japanese excuse that their action was provoked by an alleged offense which has taken three forms in two days. “The perpetration of such out-
committee to 1 consider proposed planks. Among those studied will be the necessity for passing a primary election law for state officers, consolidation of counties and townships, tax reform and more drastic regulation of utilities. By carefully working out a liberal program on these issues and adhering to its platfc m. the Irvington club will do both its party and the voters as a whole some good. So far, it has managed to escape the domination of any boss. • n When it became necessc-y a year ago to decide whether the members would follow Coffinism or Republicanism, they chose + ’" latter, although it meant loss of those members who held positions in the Cof-fin-controlled courthouse. “There will be no pussyfooting on the issues of the day,” declared Bert Morgan, president, in appointing the committee. “We want the questions dealt with in a straightforward manner.” On the one hand is the Coffin club operating under the name of “Good Government Club,” doing nothing except to further the interests of the machine; and on the other hand is the Irvington Republican Club, seeking z->od-govern-ment. What’s in a name, anyhow? Some of the biggest crooks in the country are called “Honest Johnl”
Airy Request By United Preia BOSTON, Sept. 29.—Aviation has not attained the proportions Angelo Polito thought it had. Clad in slippers, trousers and jacket, with $1,200 stuffed in his pockets and an empty traveling bag in his hand, the middle-aged laborer trudged to Boston airport Tuesday and stepped into an idle monoplane. Gruffly, mechanics asked Angelo his business. Casually, he told them he w T as going back to Italy and “please to get him a pilot quick.” Pilot Daniel Eldridge of the police motorcycle at the airport took Polito to East Boston police station, where a physician found he merely was homesick.
DEATH CLAIMS OHIOL.WADE Prominent Mason to Lie in State at Cathedral. Indianapolis Masonry will pay final tribute to one of its prominent members at 2:30 Thursday, when funeral services for Ohio L. Wade, 79, lumber dealer here for fifty-eight years, are held at the Scottish Rite cathedral. The body will lie in the cathedral from 12 noon until 2:30. Mr. Wade died at his home, Apt. 35, 401 North Illinois street, Tuesday afternoon, following a four months’ illness. He was born in Poke’s Bottom, Perry county, and lived at Princeton until 1871, when he came to Indianapolis. He was buyer for two Boston (Mass.) lumber companies in this district. After his retirement from business in 1929 Mr. Wade was active in various Masonic and club organizations. He was a charter member of the Columbia Club, a member of Oriental lodge No. 500, F. & A. M.; a York Rite and a thirty-third degree Mason, and life member of the Mystic Shrine. Survivors are two sons, Scott Wade, Indianapolis, and Fred H. Wade, Detroit, and a sister, Mrs. Carrie Rothschild, Princeton. His wife died four years ago in Los Angeles. Friends may call at the Hisey & Titus undertaking establishment, 951 North Delaware street, this afternoon, tonight and Thursday morning. The body will be cremated.
rage upon an unoffending nation by Japan is a clear and unmistakable violation of the terms of the Kellogg pact, to which Japan is a signatory. “Unless the provisions of this pact can curb the territorial ambitions of a powerful country against a weak neighbor, it is impotent as an instrument to preserve peace among nations of the world. “We appeal to the government and the people of the nation which sponsored this great proposal, that has been indorsed by, and is binding upon, the most important nations of the world, to exercise their influence and leadership in the cause of international peace.” The cablegram is signed by Wellington Koo, former minister to the United States and England; Hu Shih; W. W. Yen, former prime minister and newly appointed minister to the United States; P. W. Kuo, ministry of industries; Hollington Tong, managing editor China Press; T. B. Chang, publisher China Times; Chang Kian Gau, managing director Bank of China; Chang Poling, president Nanking university; Herman Liu, president Shanghai university; David Yui, chairman China council institute of Pacific relations; James Yen, director mass education movement; Shih Liang Tsai, managing director Shuh Pao; E.

SOLVES BOOZE AUTO'S SECRET; RUMJSSEIZED Suspect Is Arrested After Trick Compartment in Car Is Opened. Discovering the secret of a cleverly concealed trick lock, Sergeant Wayne Bear’s squad uncovered several gallons of liquor in the automobile of a man they suspected as a bootlegger early today. Sergeant Bear saw Howard Lester, 44. of 26 East Fourteenth street, Apt. 602, driving anew coupe near Sixteenth and Illinois streets, and recognizing him, he charged, as a man known to police as a bootlegger, trailed the coupe to Twentyfirst and Illinois streets. There he looked over the .car, and in the upholstery found a small hole, through which, when a screwdriver was inserted, a spring lock was touched, and the back of the seat opened, Bear stated. In the compartment Bear found three gallons of alcohol, and more than two gallons of red liquor, he said. Lester is charged with transporting liquor and operating a blind tiger. Lieutenant Ralph Dean was opening his morning’s mail at police headquarters as Sergeant Bear slated his prisoner. Among the letters he found one, unsigned, describing Lester’s car and naming him as a liquor peddler. “It has a secret compartment behind the seat. There you will find liquor,” the note informed Lieut. Dean. “Well, sergeant, you beat some one to this catch,” Dean told Bear. Bear said he arrested Lester once before, but declared he escaped punishment on a plea of heart disease.
FREED IN GAMING CASE Search Warrant Flawed, But New Charges Are Filed. Gambling charges were dismissed against Ray Carnefix, 101 River avenue, in municipal court three today, because of a technical flaw in a search warrant, but new charges were filed against him before he left the courtroom. Special Judge William Henry Harrison heard Sergeant Kruse, who led a raid against Carnefix’ establishment July 17, admit that he searched not only 101 River avenue, but 103 River avenue, using a warrant for the former address only. Then, as the charges were dismissed by the state, Kruse said he would file the new accusation of keeping a room for pool selling and operating a lottery and gift enterprise on the information he had to obtain the search warrant.
