ACT TO REACH AGREEMENT ON PRICE JF MILK Distributers May Submit Problem to Nationally Known Arbitrator. Indianapolis milk distributors today were- considering a proposal for submitting price differences between themselves and milk producers to a nationally known arbitrator, as a stop to prevent a milk war here. The suggestion was made by Carl L. Hedges of the Central Indiana Dairymen’s Association at a conference with distributors in the farm bureau offices Monday. Hedges demanded that the price of milk to the consumer be reduced, if the price paid the farmer for his milk is reduced further, it was reported following the closed meeting. Hint at Price War Hint that if distributers buying from unorganized producers refuse to accept the plan of employing an arbitrator to determine a fair wholesale and retail price for milk, that, members of the milk pool would enter into a price-cutting war to meet cuts made by certain groups here, was voiced by Hedges. Decision on the proposition is scheduled to be reached at another meeting, set for March 15. “For several months effort after ofTort has been made to work out a plan of co-operation between producers and distributers of this territory, wherein a reasonable and fair price could be paid to producers in this territory for producing market milk for the city of Indianapolis,” Hedges said. ‘Not for a Gouge’ .‘’This has not been done with a view of gouging the people on the cost of their product, but only with a view of obtaining a fair and equitable price of 10 cents per jquart retail and 8 cents wholesale. On this basis, Indianapolis distributers can afford to pay producers 42cents a pound butterfat for all milk used in city distribution. (Forty cents now is being paid, it is reported.) ‘'The distributers who purchase milk through this organization have been willing at all times to maintain this kind of a price, if permitted to do so by competitors. But constantly, competitors have been reducing the wholesale price to grocers, below the 8-cent level per quart, until they have been faced with loss of their business, or forced to meet a lower price.” JAIL TERMS FOR AUTOS Denver Drunk Drivers May Take Sentence or Let Car Serve It Out.

99.89% Reports now available for the first six months of 1931 show that the investors’ money in the United States building and loan associations was 99.89% safe. The essential soundness of these associations can not be too highly stressed. Building and loan shares are protected by first mortgages on real -estate. Surplus and undivided profits protect these shares; laws of the State of Indiana protect them, and the notice of withdrawal law safeguards the investor and borrower alike against depletion of assets through too sudden and too large demands. Your local Marion County building and loan associations rank among the best in the nation in size, safety and accomplishment. They have created wealth for investors and home owners. The value of the investor’s dollar is the same now that it was three, five or twenty years ago. There is no need for Indianapolis investors to seek good return far afield. Your local building and loan associations put your money at work here in Marion County. This money, invested here, works here. It creates work, pays dividends and wages, which being expended in Indianapolis, go still further in making general business what you want it to be. The extent to which these associations may aid the return of better business depends upon cash available for loans. Their dividend earning power has been proved.

Bert Nelson

Whatever money Bert Nelson, former holder of the world’s indoor jumping record, has in his pocket comes from his outdoor activities. He is shown in the photo on the shock end of a steam drill to pay his expenses at Butler university. Nelson, however, says there is more than financial gain in the work. He is keeping in condition for the Olympic game tryouts in July. The Butler star established the indoor record last year by leaping 6 feet 4V- inches. Since, George Spits of New York has bettered the mark.

BATTLEALON6 WIDE FRONT IN YANGTZE AREA China Brushes Aside Peace Overtures, Names Chiang Kai-Shek to Lead Army. BY HERBERT R. EKINS United Prest Staff Corresnondent SHANGHAI, March B.—Wearied armies battled along a wide front in the Yangtze valley today as brushed aside world-wide peace overtures and recalled from exile her greatest military leader, General Chiang Kai-Shek, to direct the defense against invading Japanese. Chinese government leaders, meeting Japanese charges that defending armies were responsible for the renewed hostilities, flatly announced refusal to attend the longawaited peace conference unless Japanese troops are withdrawn. At the same time, the central executive committee meeting at the temporary capital of Loyang announced General Chiang had been appointed chairman of the military council, a post tantamount to commander of the nation’s armies. Chinese Issue Statement The Sino-Japanese clash in the Yangtze valley, which sprang up shortly after commanders on both sides had announced cessation of hostilities, apparently encouraged the government to anew assertion of national entity. Chiang Tso-Ping, former minister to Tokio and now chairman of the foreign affairs committee at Lo“yang, issued the statement that Chinese will remain away from the round-table conference until Japanese troops leave Shanghai. ‘‘The government stand on the Shanghai question is guided by the basic principle that China will not yield to coercion, nor will it suffer humiliation and the loss of sovereign rights,'’ Chiang said. Japan Denies Blame ‘‘Questions regarding responsibility for the Shanghai incident, as well as idemnity for the loss of lives

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Not So Well By United Petit CHICAGO, March B.—Leon J. Bertholet, 24, walked into the Lincoln park police station and said he wanted to get warm. Officers made a place for him near the radiator and Sergeant Barney Rosenberg noticed Bertholet looked ill. “You don’t look very well,” Rosenberg said. ‘‘l’m not,” Bertholet answered “I just took poison a few minutes ago.” Officers took him to the hospital where after emergency treatment physicians said he would recover.

and property, must be discussed and settled with absolute impartiality.” General Chiang, whose position has been in doubt since he resigned several months ago as head of the government, won his appointment along with Ku Meng-Yu, prominent leftist, as minister of railways. At the scene of battle outside Shanghai, the Japanese commander, General Yoshinori Shirakawa issued a statement that Chinese troops are concentrating near Japanese lines in the direction of Quinsan. He asserted the clashes with Japanese patrols are inevitable in event the Chinese penetrate Shirakawa’s lines. The general added that China must accept the blame for such clashes, “which would lead to further complications.”

derburgh County Bar Association, Monday night, that a plea for court 1 reforms would be included in his platform. The address entitled. : “Abraham Lincoln, Lawyer,” was the high spot of the program. “Were Lincoln alive today he would stand for those reforms in court procedure that would make for a just and speedy administration of the criminal laws,” Ogden said. “He would stand for enforcement of law and a proper reverence for the law. “One of the first evils he would weed out would be the prevalent and ever-increasing crime of perjury or false-swearing on the witness stand. He despised a perjurer and even abandoned cases when he found out his client or his principal witness was a perjurer. “Nothing would give greater assistance in the curbing of organized crime today than the meting of punishment to the perjurer.”
