WHITES BATTLE NATIVES IN NEW HONOLULU RIOTS Wavy Officer and Brother Attacked by Mob on Waikiki Beach. BY DAN CAMPBELL l nltfd PreM Staff Correspondent HONOLULU, T. H„ Jan. 26.-An-gry citizens charged that Hawaii’s relorm movement was a political “smoke screen’’ today after anew outbreak of trouble in Honolulu was climaxed by a near riot between white residents and natives. A fight Involving a woman, in which a prominent stock broker assertedly was beaten by a navy lieutenant and the latter’s brother, led to an uprising of Hawaiians, police claimed. Lieutenant Charles Lynch and his brother, Howard Lynch, narrowly escaped a mauling at the hands of a mob of unruly natives when they attempted to park their car in front of a well-knowm Waikiki Beach tavern last night. Accused by Broker The Hawaiian youths attempted to drag the brothers from their car. A crowd of several hundred was attracted to the scene, and at signs of resistance from the Whites, the natives dispersed. The two brothers just had been charged with battery by Earl Williams. Honolulu investment broker. He asserted he was attacked at a party Sunday when a woman guest asked him for protection, complaining she had been choked. The broker said he asked the brothers to apologize, whereupon they assertedly beat him with a cocktail shaker and a brass vase. Word of the fight was noised about the city and when the brothers appeared at the case they were met by the Hawaiians. The name of the woman was not divulged. The incident caused a widespread revulsion of feeling against the attempts of Hawaiian legislators, now in special session, to redraft law enforcement regulations. Slaying Brings Action The session was called by Governor Lawrence M. Judd, after a young native, Joe Kahahawai, recently tried on charges of attacking a navy officer’s bride, had been kidnaped and slain. Four persons were arrested on charges of murder—Mrs. Granville Fortesque, mother of the attack victim; Lieutenant Thomas H. Maswe, the girl’s husband, and E. J. Lord and Albert O. Jones, navy enlisted mn. The case led Washington authorities to demand an investigation of island conditions. First efforts of the legislators, wherein they adopted a bill placing the police department under control of a commission, won approval of official Washington. But well informed citizens Charged today that the bill was merely a. “S. O. S.” used to allay excitement in Washington.

Hogston in an address before the Irvington Republican Club. Monday night. Lake county is the worse offender, he said, and charged that Chicago hoodlums are hired to do the burning there. Os the $8,000,000 fire loss in Indiana last year, $3,200,000 was incendiary, the fire marshal asserted. Plans for a club reception Feb. 8 for the new G. O. P. state chairman.

GOVERNOR POLL FAVORS LANDIS, PAULVJfI'NUTT Thurman Second Choice of G. 0. P. and Dailey of Democrats. BY BEN STERN (Copvrieht, 1932. bv The Times) Bitter battles in both Democratic and Republican state conventions in June are inevitable if tabulations of The Times secret poll of the 1930 delegates reflect accurately the situation. Democratic delegates concentrated their votes on four major possibilities for the nomination for Governor, but Republicans scattered their votes among a field of twenty. Possible cause of the shotgun effect is that so far there has not been an announcement for the governorship in either party, although many potential contenders have sent out scouts and have made it known that, like Barkis, “they are willing.” As was forecast by many, Paul V. McNutt, dean of the Indiana university law school and former national commander of the American Legion, took a large lead in the Democratic poll, with Frank Dailey, 1928 nominee, the second runner. Thurman Runs Second Republican delegates gave the plurality to Frederick Landis, Logansport editor and radio columnist, with M. Bert Thurman, Republican national committeeman, second, and Lieutenant-Governor Edgar D. Bush third. Because of the fact that many Republican delegates voted for Governor Harry G. Leslie not knowing that a Governor can not succeed himself, and many other scratched for Dailey and McNutt.it was necessary to place to one side 135 Republican ballots. One hundred nineteen other G. O. P. delegates refused to make a choice for Governor and contented themselves with declaring “the Republican nominated” or “no one like Leslie.” One distinct surprise was the small vote for Frank Mayr Jr., secretary of state, who because of the fact that he controls the major part of the Democartic state patronage was expected to make a much beter showing. The Landis strength was not surprising, as for many years he has been the standard bearer of the liberal and progressive element in the Republican party, and the sentiment expressed on many of the ballots was predominately for “a progressive.” Bush’s vote was scattered through the rural districts where he has labored to build a reputation as the •farmer’s friend.” He received eight votes in Marion county, however. The small showing made by Thurman was unexpected in view of the fact that he long has been an active figure in Republican politics and also because of the post he holds as national committeeman. Yet it must be remembered that Thurman is not an orator and has devoted most of his efforts toward organization. Frederick E. Schortemeier, former secretary of state and leader on the first three 1928 convention ballots made a surprisingly poor race considering his importance in Republican affairs. Mayor Sullivan Supported Marion county crashed through with 22 votes for Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan, who, from all indications, will be the dark-horse candidate in event of a convention deadlock, but he received only one other vote and that came from Morgan county. Balloting resulted in the following: Democratic: McNutt, 323; Dailey, 107; Sullivan, 23; Mayr, 17; John Fredrick, Kokomo manufacturer, and a leading 1928 contender, 7; Mayor Wood Posey of Terre Haute, 6; Mayor George Dale of Muncie, 5; Walter Myers'. 4; L. Ert Slack, former mayor of Indianapolis, 2; Arthur Hamrick, 3; Mayor John McCarty of Washington, 3; Albert Stump, 3; Frederick Van Nuys, 3; Chester Montgomery of South Bend, Lee Bays of Sullivan, Senator Thurman Gottschalk, Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch and Robert E. Proctor, one apiece. . McNutt obtained a surprising large vote in Marion county when it is remembered that this is the home of Dailey. A glance at the tabulation sheet reveals that he was accorded 47, against 29 for Dailey: 22 for Sullivan. 2 for Van Nuys, 2 for Myers and 2 for Fredrick. How Republicans Voted Republican balloting was: Landis, 131; Thurman, 70; Bush, 42; Schortemeier, 14; Attorney-General James M. Ogden, 9; Charles Jewett, 6: George Ball, 4; Fred Purnell, 2; Ward Hiner, 3; Eli Siebert, 3; D. Burns Douglass, 3, all from Ft. Wayne; James I. Barnes, 4, all from Logansport; Denver Harlan, 2; and a scattering of single votes for Otto G, Fifield, Jesse Eschbach, Archie Bobbitt. Arthur Sapp, Lew Bowman, William H. Faust, Clarence Martin, Franklin Littleton. James Showalter, James Dunbar, Ralph Gates, Frank Ball, Will Wood, Senator John Alldredge, Arthur Gilliom, George Barnard, Elza O. Rogers. Emmett Branch, James P. Goodrich and Will Irwin. One difficulty besetting the Republican delegates was the absence of any focal figure upon whom to concentrate. There was hardly a county in which McNutt did not get a vote. Reason for the small showing of Dailey is, of' course, • because it is unknown whether he is a candidate, together witlr his complete absence from political activity. The tabulations on the major candidates together with the delegate strength of the counties in which they received votes is shown in a table on this page. Net information to be derived from the poll on Governor is what has been set out above; the inevitability is a convention battle in both parties. Such a fray in the Democratic meeting depends, of course, upon Dailey’s entrance into the field.

Rare Drug Lacking to Save Doctors Life

By United Press Rock island, hi., Jan. 26. —Dr. E. Franc Morrill, woman physician who has devoted her life to philanthropy, was dying today, with little hope that the rare drug cortin could be obtained to counteract her attack of Addison’s disease. One injection of the drug brought a rally to the physician, who is supreme medical director of the Royal Neighbors of America. But her physicians, Drs. Joseph and Edward De Silva, doubted if they could obtain a further supply.

KIRKLAND JUDGE AGAIN IN RAGE Ogden Silent on Impugned Jurist's Candidacy. Attorney-General James M. Ogden, who severely criticised the conduct of Judge Grant Crumpacker of Valparaiso, for his conduct of the Virgil Kirkland case, today refused to comment on Crumpacker’s announcement for re-election. In making his announcement, Crumpacker said he would stand on the Kirkland trial record. Kirkland, a Gary high school athlete, first was given a life sentence for the assault-murder of Miss Arlene Draves, 18, during a joy-ride and gin party. Then Judge Crumpacker granted anew trial and Kirkland then received one to ten years at the reformatory. One of the criticisms came from the fact that the judge’s son was one of the defense counsel. Ogden was appealed to by Gary citizens in an effort to change the verdict or obtain anew trial, but he was unable to find any legal way to proceed, although expressing disgust at the result as a “gross miscarriage of justice.” MAYOR ORDERS PROBE OF MARKET CONDITIONS John White Heads Commission to Sutdy Complaints. Ordering a diagnosis of troubles of the city market, Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan today recognized demands of women’s clubs for improvements by appointing a special committee to make a probe. The group to study conditions at the market is headed by John F. White, civic leader. Naming of the investigators was announced following a conference of Mayor Sullivan and Charles R. Myers, safety board president. Other members of the committee are: Ernest C. Ropkey, city council president; Councilmen Leo F. Welch, Clarence Wheatley and James A. Houck; William F. Hurd, city building commissioner; Mrs. C. A. James, chairman of the Woman’s Department Club municipal affairs committee, and Mrs. E. E. Eschbach, representing the Seventh District Federation of Clubs.

The situation, however, still was considered serious, with martial law in effect in eight of fourteen provinces, and warships of the United States, Canada and Great Britain either anchored off the coast or steaming here.

FARMERS TRUST PAYMENT NEAR Judge Sets Feb. 2 to Hear President’s Claim. Steps toward settlement of claims against the defunct Farmers Trust Company will be taken soon, according to Superior Judge Clarence E. Weir, who announced today that an appraisal of the bank’s properties has been completed. A summary of the appraisal, begun several months ago on petition of Boyd M. Ralston, receiver, will be made public within ten days. Judge Weir has set Feb. 2 as the date for a hearing to determine validity of the largest claim against the insolvent institution. This is the claim of Charles N. Williams, president of the bank, seeking to recover $275,0)0 of his own money on deposit in the bank when it closed, May 12, 1931. Depositors and stockholders will contest Williams’ claim and will be represented in the trial by the bank’s receiver. Majority of the bank’s assets includes mortgages on farm lands located in Ohio, Wisconsin and other states. Values of these lands have been estimated by three appraisers, appointed by Judge Weir. When the institution closed, these farm and real estate mortgages were estimated at $363,000. The receiver refused to place a value on the properties without an appraisement.

BRIDGE DELAY IS CHARGED TO LAND GOUGERS Highway Director Says High Prices Hold Up Project on North Meridian. Plans of certain North Meridian street property holders to “profiteer” on the state has prevented the White river bridge from being included in the state highway department bridge letting schedule Feb. 16. Director John J. Brown asserted today. “We are ready to spend $1,000,000 on rerouting U. S. Rd. 31 on the north side of Indianapolis, but we are not ready to be robbed to obtain the right-of-way,” Brown declared. “Plans for the new bridge have been completed and whenever these property owners assume a reasonable attitude we will proceed. Rerouting Is Delayed “The present price they are asking for several essential properties is indefensible. We never will pay it. “Nor are we taking advantage of depression prices, but have offered, and still are offering them a fair price, far in excess of their tax valuation figures. “Their sense of civic responsibility should move them to acceptance. For they are delaying the rerouting of the road to Carmel which will give a forty-foot pavement from the circum-urban route into the city, instead of the present crooked and hazardous route. “The bridge will be a masterpiece, and the spending of $1,000,000 on bridge construction and pavement greatly would aid the unemployed in Indianapolis. Donations Not Asked “I pledge that the commission is ready to proceed whenever satisfactory settlement of these land deals can be consummated. We fully expected to complete this project in 1932.” Ralph Simpson, assistant director, explained the commission no longer seeks right-of-way by donation. Under the new plan, two expert appraisers are employed who report to the commission. Then a contact man is sent out to make the deal with a limit set to what can be expended in excess of the appraised valuation.

UTILITY RATES BOOST CITY'S SCHOOL GOST Cut Would Increase Fund to Repair Buildings, Say Officials. Utility rates cost the Indianapolis public school system $42,069.32 for the first six months of the school year, July 1 to Dec 1, it was learned today. Os that about $18,795.55 went for electric costs. School officials today refused to comment on the expenditures for utility rates, but admitted that a slash there possible would mean the transfer of needed funds to the maintenance and repair division, which is struggling to overcome the “unsafe and insanitary” condition prevailing in many schools. Water costs for the school system for the first six months amounted to $13,658.40, while gas cost the schools $1,656.66. Telephone bills were 57.928.71. Shortridge Light Bill Tlie Shortridge high school electric light bill totaled $1,472.89 for the six months. Utility costs probably would be higher but for the fact that Technical high school produce part of its own electric power. The Technical bill, it is understood, was only about S7OO for the first six months. Utility bills are paid from the operating fund of the housekeeping department, and H. F. Osier, superintendent of buildings and grounds, also admitted that a rate slash “might prove a Godsend.” “A rate cut,” he said, “might mean that we could get some money into our reduced maintenance fund. We certainly could use it. Our budget merely is taking care of routine repairs. We just can’t get dilapidated boilers and unsanitary toilet equipment replaced.” Behind Painting Program Osier said today that all schools should be painted at least every four years. This year he is forty schools behind in his program. “Painting the schools is not only a measure to prevent deterioration, but a sanitation move. It's unthinkable to let dust and dirt pile up on the schools. A painting every four years should keep the schools in a reasonably clean condition.
