WIN FIGHT TO FORCE HOOSE LIQUOR VOTE Wet Bloc Obtains Last of Signatures Needed for Resubmission Bill. DRAMA MARKS VICTORY Crippled, 111 Congressmen Sway Tide; Cheering Greets Action. I’ll United Press WASHINGTON, March I.—The house wet bloc won today in its spectacular campaign for a vote on resubmiEsion of the eighteenth amendment. The last of the necessary 145 signatures was added to their petition, which has lain on Speaker John N. Garner’s desk for five days and automatically the Beck-Linthi-Icum bill for modification of the eighteenth amendment to give the liquor back to the states will be brought to the house on March 14. Anti - prohibitionists applauded and cheered when Representative Joseph J. Mansfield (Dem., Tex.), a cripple, propelled himself in his wheel chair up to the Speaker’s desk and signed the petition. This touch of drama was the second of the day. Represenative Richard P. Freeman <Rep., Conn.), who has been ill, was escorted to lhe desk by two of his colleagues, Representatives John A. Tilsonand Edward W. Goss, to sign the petition. March 14 Is Date Under the rules, such measures brought before the house by petition can be considered only on the second and fourth Mondays in a; month, and March 14 is the first | day possible. The petition merely brings the ; modified amendment before the j house, technically discharging the judiciary committee which recently rejected it. It then takes a majority vote, 218, when every member is present, for the house actually to consider the proposition. If this majority is obtained, the measure must then remain before the house until it is disposed of with only a motion to adjourn having privilege. When the final signature was scrawled across the petition, Representative Florcllo H. La Guardia (Rep., N. Y.), was attacking in a speech Representative Thomas Blanton (Dem., Tex.), an ardent dry. Blanton just had completed a speech criticizing the “wet bloc’’ move. As Mansfield signed. Reprsentative John J. O’Connor (Dem., N. Y.), j one of the house anti-prohibition leaders, jumped up in his place and announced that 145 names were on the petition. This precipitated the jubliation of the anti-prohibitionists. Strength Is Greater The strength manifested by the petition signatories represented the greatest yet marshaled by antiprohibitionists since prohibition became effective, eleven years ago. They do not expect actual approval ot the Beck-Linthicum proposal by the house, since this requires a t wo-thirds vote, but they were hopeful that they might get a majority necessary to consider the proposition by the house. A number of congressmen who did not sign the petition are known to favor resubmission of the amendment whenever the issue is raised directly, as it will be in this case NAB CONVICT DIGGING TUNNEL FOR ESCAPE Negro Was Half Way to Freedom From Missouri Prison.

Rudy Snared By United Brest SANTA MONICA, Cal., March I.—Two men, succeeding where four bathing beauties failed, today obtained service on Rudy Vallee, radio crooner, in a $1,000,000 plagairism suit. The bathing girls lolled in the sun near the Santa Monica home of Chief of Police C. E. Webb, Vallee’s father-in-law, but they failed to spot the singer. Then Charles Gordon, one of the two men process servers, caught Vallee as he drove up in his automobile. The suit was filed here 1 two years ago by Roberta Hudson McKay, who claimed Vallee pirated her song, “Vagabond Lover,” and made it “I’m Just a Vagabond Lover.”

Miss Marguerite Jessee, 21, of 412 North Alabama street, and Mrs. Alice Fowle, 34, of 2358 North Illinois street, clerks, were forced into the basement of the store after the gunman threatened to kill them if they cried out.

Martial Law Urged in Kokomo ‘Hunger Crisis’ By Times Special KOKOMO, Ind.. March I—Soup kitchens manned by Indiana national guardsmen and backed by a decree of martial law were proposed today by Lee J. Noble, Howard county councilman, as a means of meeting a serious situation here in poor relief. Noble and the other councilmen, Dennis L. Crume and C. A. Clark, form a committee which Noble says will place the martial law proposal before Governor Harry G. Leslie unless some other plan is devised within th next few 7 days. Cent* township, in which Kokomo is located, is facing a serious situation with a relief cost of SI,OOO a day, but other townships of the county are said to be meeting the relief problem at less expense. To date Center township has issued poor relief bonds for a total of $145,000. Walter Koontz, Center township trustee, attempted to establish a commissary recently, but w 7 as opposed by Kokomo business men who finally obtained a court order restraining the trustee from putting his plan into effect. It then was proposed to set up soup kitchens, but this, Noble asserts. was opposed by popular opinion, as a blot upon the city. Noble proposes first to confer with officials of welfare organizations in an attempt to evolve a relief plan, and, if that fails, will place the martial law proposal before the Governor. Only one bank remains open in Kokomo.

(Picture on Page 2) By United Press SAN FRANCISCO, March I. Dorothy Ellingson, who went to prison six and one-half years ago a flaming-haired ‘'butterfly girl,” who had killed her mother, emerged from San Quentin Monday a woman of silence. She was at liberty in San Francisco today, pleading for “the world to forget about me and leave me alone.” Dorothy, now 23. was met at the prison gates by reporters and cameramen. She wore brown glasses and shielded her face with the collar of her coat. “Oh, God!” she cried, “can't the leave me alone?”

SINCLAIR MAY HEAD LARGEST OILCOMPANY Lifetime Ambition Near as Stockholders of Three Firms Meet. FLIP OF COIN HIS START Rise Rivals Alger Success, After Winning Title to Rich Claim. By United Press NEW YORK, March I.—Harry Ford Sinclair, who “broke into the oil business” with a small stake inherited from his father, hopes to realize his life’s ambition today—to head one of the largest oil companies in the world. Sinlcair is attempting to merge his Sinclair Consolidated Oil Corporation with Prairie Oil and Gas Company and Prairie Pipe Line Company, former Standard Oil units, into the Consolidated Oil Corporation, with assets of $542,000,000. Sinclair stockholders voted approval today and officials look for immediate approval by the other two groups, notwithstanding opposition from a group of Prairie stockholders. Consolidation would be effected by an exchange of stock equivalent to 1.4 shares each of Prairie Oil and Gas and Sinclair for each share of Prairie Pipe line. The Sinclair meeting was in New York and the others at Independence, Kan. Spectacular Operator Harry Sinclair, present chairman of Sinclair, and one of the most spectacular operators in the early days of the oil industry, is expected to become chairman of the executive committee of the Consolidated Oil Corporation. Businesses of the companies mostly are complementary, so that large economies and more unified operation are anticipated. Sinclair is a marketer, Prairie Oil is a producer of crude oil, and Prairie Pipe line ! a carrier. Sinclair Consolidated ! currently is selling a billion gallons > of gasoline annually, and operates | in forty-five states and forty for- \ eign countries. Through their large holdings of j Prairi. stock, the Rockefeller interests are expetced to become largest stockholders in the new organization, owning nearly 10 per cent of the stock. Inherited Drug Store Sinclair’s rise to fame was in the typical Alger fashion. Inheriting his father’s drug store at Independence, Kan., he invested the profits in an oil lease with a partner. A disagreement led to a toss of a coin to decide which half the other would take. Sinclair’s was a bonanza, the other half produced only “dusters.” Thus began Sinclair’s rise in the business world, a rise characterized by willingness to stake all on an attractive proposition. He rose to country-wide prominence in 1923 when the first of the sensational Teapot Dome scandals began to unfold. Sinclair came into contempt of the senate and served seven months in a Washington jail. FALL PROVES FATAL Mrs. Dotia Daugherty Dies as Result of Pelvic Fracture.

‘FLAMING FLAPPER’ MURDER STORY CLOSES AS GIRL ENDS TERM

It was on Jan. 13, 1925, that Dorothy shot her mother, tossed the smoking pistol to one side, stepped over the body, and headed for the wild party she had been forbidden to attend. “Please forget me,” she said to Mrs. George Black, the prison matron, who escorted her to a temporary refuge in San Francisco. after her release Monday. “I studied during these long years. I want to live a different life.” m a st THEY were the first words of regret Dorothy Ellingson was known to have uttered since that day when she killed her mother and plunged into the wild night life of San Francisco's-early “jazz age."

And, without exhibiting any of the fury which often marks it, the new month brought above-normal temperatures and a promise only of rain. There is no immediate prospect of the tame, placid creature turning into a roaring lion, J. H. Armington, weather forecaster, predicted. If records of the weather bureau are any criterion, however, the lamb may have a surprise in store. The lowest snowfall in the history of the weather bureau was recorded during December, January , and February, according to Armington. But March often brings the heaviest snowfalls of the winter, as proven in 1906 when 30.4 inches was recorded, and in 1896 w'hen 17.8 inches fell. February’s average temperature of 39.6 was more than 8 degrees above normal with January more than 10 degrees above normal and December 9 degrees warmer than normal. In December, .2 inches of snow fell, constituting the winter’s total snowfall. Rain during the three months, however, was far above normal, Armington said.

RAPS STATE SETUP Lawyer Urges Constitution Be Rewritten. Reorganization of the entire state governmental structure, through rewriting or revision of the state constitution, was recommended by Claude H. Anderson, attorney, at the meeting of the Irvington Republican Club Monday night. In order to eliminate waste, Anderson proposed the Governor be given full power as law enforcing officer and have him appoint, subject to legislative confirmation, all principal state officials. These, with a superintendent of benevolent institutions, would form the Governor’s cabinet and all appointments would expire with that of the executive, Anderson suggested. Anderson would remodel the legislature so that one representative would be elected from each congressional district and three at large, and seven senators to be elected either at large or from senatorial districts.

the post-war development of the “flapper.” The girl was the daughter of hard-working parehts. Her mother had indulged her. At an .early age she had fallen in with over-gay companions. The exotic atmosphere of the Chinese restaurants had attracted her. Soon she had become a familiar figure in the group of young people, girls like Dorothy who not yet had reached 17, and sleekhaired youths who gathered to dance and drink on the fringe of Chinatown. The mother and father worked to clothe and care for the girl. She lived only for gaiety. They pleaded with her, but to no avail.

61-Year-Old Man Accused of Selling Booze to * ’teen Age Boys. * Authorities struck again today at bootleggers who are selling booze to ’teen age Indianapolis boys and girls with the arrest of William McClaim, 61, of 812 Economy street, on a blind tiger charge. Three youths, two of them 17 and the third 18, went with officers today to McClain’s home and, according to police, identified him as the man who provided them with booze last Friday. Among the youths is Chester Ingersoll, 17, of 932 Bellefontaine street, whose father, Homer Ingersoll, died Dec. 13, 1931, when police entered his home to, investigate booze sale reports. Chester was the youth who came from the basement of his home carrying jugs when officers were talking to his father. Mr. Ingersoll, seeing the containers carried by his son, slumped over the kitchen table and died of heart disease before medical aid could be obtained. Said They ‘Found Bottle’ Ed Frazer, 18, of 915 Bellefontaine street, and Joseph Newton, 17, of 524 North Alabama street, were involved with Ingersoll in McClain’s arrest today. Frazer had been held in jail since Friday, when Municipal Judge Clifton R. Cameron gave him “an opportunity to remember where and how” they obtained liquor. Newton was held by detectives pending investigation of another charge. The boys were arrested by patrolman after the officers said they found the trio drinking liquor in an alley near Ingersoll’s home. In court last week, Frazer declared they “found the bottle in an alley.” “I don’t want to fine you boys or send you to jail,” Cameron said. “But I want to know the course of that liquor.” Ingersoll was released and Frazer, according to officers, finally decided to tell them arrangements which were maeje for obtaining the booze. Youth Identify McLain Armed with John Doe warrants, charging McLain with operating a blind tiger and sale of liquor, Sergeant Wayne Bear and patrolmen Dolly Gray and Fred Stevens staged the raid on McClain’s house. After the raid, the officers told Cameron the youths had identified McClain as the man with whom arrangements had ’been made to leave the liquor in the alley after they had paid for it. Cameron released Ingersoil and Frazer after McClain’s arrest, directing them to appear against the alleged bootlegger in court Wednesday.

nnHE climax came one evening when Dorothy prepared to leave for a party. Her mother forbade her to go. They were alone in the house. She was defiant, the mother was firm. Dorothy flew into a rage, picked up a gun and shot her mother to death. She they arrayed herself in her party clothes and soon was out in her role as the "life of the par* y." Evidence pointed to Dorothy as having at least knowledge of the manner of her mother’s death, and for two days the police sought her. '

PLEA FOR PEACE IN ORIENT LOST IN BATTLE ROAR Conflict Rages With Greater Violence as League Hopes for Settlement Are Spurred by Reception in Tokio. RAILWAY WRECKED BY AIR BOMBS Nipponese Rush Reinforcements to Shanghai Zone; Chinese Cling Grimly to Positions Despite Savage Onslaught. BY HERBERT R. EKINS United Press Staff Correspondent < Copyright. 1932. bv United Press' SHANGHAI, March I.—Japanese airplanes dropped seventeen bombs on the Markham road railway yards today, scoring two direct hits and wrecking the Shanghai-Nanking tracks. The Japanese have threatened to destroy the lines leading into Shanghai unless the Chinese cease using them for reinforcements, but the time limit had not yet expired.

Heavy firing continued tonight, Japanese batteries in Hongkew park and at Kiangwan shelling the north station and the Chinese replying vigorously. At nightfall, the Chinese still held the contested village of Tazang, despite the continued Japanese assault. The blazing ruins in the Chapei native quarter of the city, on a mile front, were visible from housetops all through the city. Two depth bombs, or mines, exploded in the Whangpoo river, in front of the international settlement today, with slight damage to the Japanese destroyer Ohi. They shook the flagship Izomo of Admiral Kichisaburo Nomura. The Japanese said the ward room and some furniture aboard the Ohi was damaged. The flagship was not damaged, despite the terrific explosion about 100 yards distant.

League Peace Plan Approved

By United Press TOKIO, March I.—The League of Nations plan for a round-table conference of world powers with China and Japan, to end hostilities at Shanghai, is acceptable to Japan, the foreign office announced today. Foreign Minister Kenkichi Yozhizawa instructed the Japanese delegation at Geneva that the proposal was acceptable and does not conflict with Japanese policy. The league proposal also was acceptable to the war office and the navy, because it left cessation of hostilities to be determined by negotiations at Shanghai, and because a truce must be established before provisions of the proposal will be applicable. Although the war and navy ministries accepted the proposal, they hoped that the present offensive launched at Shanghai after the arrival of the Eleventh division would achieve the Japanese aim of forcing the Chinese back twelve and one-half miles from the city. It was emphasized officially that the principle of simultaneous withdrawal from Shanghai was not ac-

China to Ask for Reparations

BY CARROLL KENWORTHY United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, March I.—Reparations for damage done to Chinese life and property will be demanded by the Chinese government in any final solution of the Shanghai crisis, Dr. Hawkling Yen, charge d’affaires of the Chinese legation, told the United Press today. Dr. Tfen showed great interest in reports from Geneva that' China and Japan had agreed “in principle” to mutual and simultaneous withdrawal of their troops from the

Skepticism Voiced by General

BY MAJOR-GENERAL HANSON E. ELY, U. S. A., RETIRED (Copyright. 1932. bv United Press) WASHINGTON, March I.—Peace does not look quite so assured as it did Monday night. The Japanese are willing to cease hostilities if the Chinese Nineteenth route army withdraws and a neutral zone is established. Geneva and the respective governments are agreed in principle,

One morning they found her. She had just returned from another night of frivolity. n * TAKEN to headquarters, she admitted that she had shot her mother because her mother forbade her to attend a party. She maintained she had no accomplices and that there was no other reason. • At her trial the story of her mad career, which began as of a willful child and' reached a climax in the taking of a human life by the time she was 16, was brought out. Her case gave to the language of the time the term “jazz-ma-niac."

HOME

TWO CENTS

The flagship was moored alongside the Japanese consulate-general. Meanwhile, the main force of the Japanese Eleventh division of approximately 10,000 men had been landed from the Yangtze river, twenty miles above the Woosung forts. The division prepared to join the Ninth division and Japanese marines in a renewed battering attack on Chinese defenses in the Tazang and Chapei sectors. Japanese Ninth division headquarters claimed the infantry advanced to within about one mile of Tazang after heavy aerial bombardment. The Japanese admitted heavy casualties. Japanese casualties to date were announced as follows: Army, 104 killed and 975 wounded; navy, 115 killed and 630 wounded; total dead, 219; total wounded, 1,605. The heavy bombardment of Chapei, just outside the international settlement, rocked office buildings in the international area so heavily that many residents feared an earthquake.

cepted and not likely to be, because the Japanese do not trust the Chinese to carry out their promises until the Japanese have witnesse l the actual Chinese withdrawal. Japan considered the most important point in the league proposal the provision for a round table conference after withdrawal of troops, for Japan considers withdrawal of Chinese forces necessary for a permanent solution of the Shanghai problem. The four main points of the league proposal were: 1. The interested powers will participate in round table conference with Japan and China to end hostilities. 2. The conference will be undertaken on the basis that Japan rejects any territorial gains at Shanghai. 3. The Chinese recognize that' the safety of the international settlement and the French concession must be preserved. 4. The conference will be subject to conditions made by local authorities for cessation of hostilities; foreign naval and military officials will render ali possible assistance.

fighting zone. He emphasized, however, that such plan is only the basis for a truce, and does not solve problems which brought on the crisis or those which have arisen out of it. Any final settlement must involve compensation for “unwarranted destruction” of Chinese lives and property, as well as settlement of the Manchurian problem, he said. “Japan has created a situation which involves the governments of the two nations. It is a case between Japan and China; not just between Japan and Shanghai,” said Yen.

but cessation of hostilities seems left to local commanders. Japanese General Uyeda wanted victory before the arrival of General Shirakawa—now General Shirakawa may want victory before the slow process of diplomacy stops the wheels. The Chinese want to “save their faces” and not to withdraw unless forced to, or unless honorable terms are given. / The Chinese already have “saved their face” by a defense unexpectedly gallant and effective against one of the best armies in the world. The Japanese, with their superior artillery, absolute control of air and sea, their tanks, artillery, undoubtedly can blast their way through to victory at Shanghai, but I believe they will see the price is too great—not only casualties, but depressed finance#, loss of foreign credit, but most of all in the growing condemnation of mo6t of the nations of the world. In spite of peace negotiations which may or may not have early results, the battle goes on. The Japanese infantry, assisted by air bombing, heavy artillery barrages and fire from the fleet, is making two encircling movements—one to the north, which has carried some two miles toward Tazang and the other attacking Chapei. The latter appears to be gaining ground.
