CHICAGO NEAR END OF TETHER; RELIEF URGENT _____ Suffering, City’s Lack of Money Swiftly Coming to Crisis. The Tnitfd rrem hat pictured In this series f stories the plight of penniless ('hlrsgo and Its unpaid workers. Some "f the causes of the crisis hare been explained, possible solutions enumerated. This story estimates the colossal cost of failure to solve the problem. It attempts to predict what will happen here If nothing Is done. Tomorrow’s coneluding installment tells of the most amaxing '‘strike" in the history the Chicago taxpayers' strike. BY RAY BLACK By United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright. 1932. by United Press* CHICAGO, Jan. 14.—Disaster as complete as from a major flood, fire or earthquake confronts Chicago. That is no exaggeration. Farseeing officials have hinted at the possibility for months. They no longer hint; they declare chaos is inevitable unless the city can raise money. Starvation threatens more than 500,000 men, women and children— The equivalent of the entire population of Milwaukee. Charity has been feeding them. Now relief funds are dwindling, and no more are in prospect. More than 625,000 jobless walk the streets. Not all have been on the charity list. Some have borrowed. Others have been supported by relatives or friends. They, too, are almost at the end of the rope. Worst Outlook in History Some 30,000 Chicagoans, including school teachers, policemen, firemen and other city and county employes, cither are working without pay or their pay checks are long overdue. A Chicago newspaper carried in italic type scattered through its news columns today such warnings as: “Pay your taxes or there will be no fire department.” “Pay your taxes or there will be no police department.” “Pay your taxes or the county hospital will shut down.” “Pay your taxes or the schools will close.” “Pay your taxes or the courts will close.” In slogan-form, that is the picture. Collapse of every agency for protection of life, health and property, with hundreds of thousands dying for lack of something to eat, freezing from lack of fuel—such is the prospect, the most dismal in Chicago’s history. Fire Less Disastrous “There is no use denying that the situation is desp/brate,” said Edward L. Ryerson Jr., president of the joint emergency relief fund. “Never has Chicago had anything like the number of unemployed it has now. “The Chicago fire was not as bad In many ways as this situation, with 500,000 persons on charity lists. People, rich and poor, have given until ihey can hardly given any more. The legislature holds the key to the problem.” And the legislature, by voting down the Kelly bill sos revamping the city’s tax machinery early on "Wednesday, prolonged for no one knows how long the anxipty of Chicago’s 3,500,000 inhabitants. Fourteen relief stations, which have been caring for 35,000 destitute families, must close unless tax funds are made available, Ryerson said. The relief fund of $10,500,000 that the city raised among its citizens will not keep them open much longer. Lunch Fund Depleted Suffering among the 500,000 school children threatens to become more acute immediately. Many of them have been given free lunches at school. In many cases, that was their biggest meal of the day, since larders at home were nearly empty. The advisory committee on school lunches announces that its funds are depleted. There may be drastic cuts in the luncheon menus, or they may have to be abolished in some schools. Normal college students met in a mass meeting this week to protest against the board of education’s tentative decision to close down the institution for one year. Students (who have attended from one to three years would be thrown on the streets to augment the army of jobless. Patients in the municipal tuberculosis sanitarium, aged and feeble in home and institutions, mothers on the pension list, all of them helpless to help themselves, face the gloomy prospect of being deprived of enough food to keep them alive. Those too ill to realize what Chicago is up against perhaps are the lucky ones. OPENS NEW MORTUARY Harry C. Keers to Conduct Business • on North Meridian. Harry C. Keers, 2333 North Pennsylvania stret, today announced the opening of his funeral home at 1801 North Meridian street. Keers has been in the funeral business for fifteen years in Indianapolis. He plans to give day and night ambulance service. The establishment has its own chapel. A pipe organ will be another feature of the home. Associated with Keers will be W. K. Richardson, who has been an undertaker at 1801 North Meridian street for the last ten years. They will not be partners, but will share the same building. Guardians Haled Into Court FT. WAYNE, Ind., Jan. 14.—Judge George H. Leonard has ordered 105 guardians to appear Jan. 25 in Allen superior court to show cause why they should not be removed. In some cases no reports have been made in twenty years, and in one, not since 1894.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

PREMIER LAVAL ORGANIZES NEW FRENCHJABINET Tardieu Becomes Minister of War and Geneva Delegate. BY WALLACE CARROLL United Press Staff Correspondent PARIS, Jan. 14.—Pierre Laval headed anew French cabinet formed rapidly today to solve the debts, reparations and disarmament problems. Laval succeeded himself as premier, and also became foreign minister, replacing Aristide Briand. He appointed ex-Prcmier Andre Tardieu minister of war, to head the disarmament delegation to Geneva. Tardieu performed a similar duty as premier at the London naval conference. The new cabinet was identical with the old Laval regime except that Pierre Cathala succeeded Laval as minister of the interior, and Achille Fould succeeded Tardieu as minister of agriculture. Both new ministers were undersecretaries in the previous government. It appeared that the cabinet’s foreign policy would be dominated by events in Germany, chiefly the recent statement of Chancellor Heinrich Bruening that Germany can not resume reparations payments. Laval’s presence at the foreign ministry assured a more outspoken policy toward Germany than that followed by Briand.

NO, 7—Cloudburst Isn't That at All—Caused by Uprushing Air Currents; Falls When Current Ceases.

A STANDARD dictionary defines a cloudburst as “a sudden copious rainfall, as if the whole cloud had been precipitated at one time.” Asa matter of fact, if a cloud of the largest size were, by a miracle, precipitated at one time, coming down at the maximum speed of falling raindrops, it would not cause a torrential shower, such as is commonly described as a cloudburst; but of course the comparatively small amount that clouds sometimes actually burst and discharged their entire watery load at once upon the earth. This idea is learnedly set forth in a quaint little German work by Christian Weise, published in 1701, as well as in many later works. The earlier scientific attempts to account for the tremendous downpours to which the name “cloudburst” is applied assumed that the water was due to rapid condensa-

tion in the vortex of a tornado or waterspout, and hence the name ‘‘waterspout” was formerly often applied to a cloudburst, even when it occurred far from any body of water. The rainfall attending a tornado is doubtless sometimes of cloudburst intensity, but the majority of cloudbursts now are believed to be the product of thunderstorms. Violent uprushing currents of air always occur at the front of an advancing thunderstorm. Moisture in the air drawn into

i ji 1 1 , i ,

the storm by these currents condenses as it rises on account of the cooling of the air by expansion, but the upward blast is so strong that for a time the water is prevented from falling as rain. If the rising currents are weakened at some point, a large accumulation of water is permitted to fall at one time. This is especially likely to occur when a traveling thunderstorm, which is fed by rising streams of air from overheated ground, passes over the cooler surface of a mountain, so that the supply cf warm

air is temporarily cut off. This would explain the special frequency of cloudbursts in mountainous regions. > Next: What is “St. Elmo’s fire?”
