BREAD PRICES ARE RAISED BY CITY BAKERIES Cost Is Boosted From 5 to 7 Cents for One Pound Loaf. CHAINS CHARGE 4 CENTS War Beat Dealer Out of of Nearly All His Profit, Say Merchants. The bread “war" is over. Price of the so-called staff of life Has boo 'cd today in city bakeries Item ft to 7 cents for a one-pound loaf Tiie new price set by leading bakeries of the city, restores bread to the cost that prevailed a year when cheaper grain brought one-pound loaves down from 8 to 6 cents, m some instances, and as lo'v as 4 cents a pound Bakers say the "war'’ started wh n n a bakery sliced the price to mch low levels that profit was not jxjssible. Premiums Also Costly Coupons entitling buyers to coasters and other premiums formed part i>t the "wars'’ weapons. Although the "war’’ is over as far ns the larger bakeries are concerned, managers of two chain store systems quoted one pound loaves today at 4 cents. With the twin loaves, weighing one and one-half pounds, at 6 cents. Bread that formerly was sold at 5 cents a pound at the groceries cost the grocer 4 cents. At the new price level, the grocer pays 6 cents for the one-pound loaf and obtains 1 cent profit. Margin of profit in the price changes, in most instances, is a profit for the wholesaler, with a few groceries holding the price at 8 cents a pound. Profits Were Small Bread sales formed another phase Os the battle between the bakers. As one baker explained the war: "One fellow would cut his price and all the rest of us had to follow f>r get sunk. The fellow who cut would boost his sales, but his profit was negligible. Better materials also entered into the price •war’." One baker who hiked the bread pr.ee said he was continuing to sell a three-fourths pound loaf at 4 cents. It is unsliced bread, however,” Sic explained. Chain store officials said they would continue to hold their bread piices at 4 and 6 cents. The grain mart. It is said, did rot affect the price changes in Indianapolis. BOY FALLS TO DEATH FROM GARAGE LOFT ftohert Plunkett. 11. Had Been Playing With Friends.

OFFICIALS ARE FOGGY ON REASON NEGRO IS HELD AT COUNTY JAIL

The Marion county jail today holds one prisoner whose prosecutors admit they don't know what charges he faces. He is Thomas Duncan, 24-year-old Muncie Negro, who was one of the government's witnesses in the trial of George R. Dale. Muncie mayor; police officials, and other residents on charges of conspiracy to violate the prohibition law. Duncan has been in the county jail since April 28. This has been a continuous stay, except twice, when he was brought to the federal building. The first time he testified in the Dale trial that he had been promised a job as a federal stool pigeon and he was attacked by Dale and Fred Massey, police chief. In the attack story, Duncan told the jury that Dale and others wanted him to testify that he had been paid $35 by federal agents to relate that he saw Dale and Massey use liquor in the city building. He said he then was given $3.50 to go to Lima. 0., and later was nabbed for booze running in Toledo. 4

Tartly cloudy tonight and Tuesday, probably unsettled at times: continued warm.

2.500. Encamped in Capital, Planning Parade to White House. By I'nitrd Pres* “Bonus armies" still streamed eastward across the United States toward Washington today, but the recruiting of new battalions was checked by the discouragements which veterans en route or already in Washington, encountered. Railroads generally maintained a firm front against transporting veterans. various states and municipalities declined to give further aid and a shortage of food confronted the arrivals in Washington. An estimated 2.500 were barracked in Washington, planning to parade to the White House and Capitol Tuesday in furtherance of appeals for passage of the Patman house bill to pay two billion dollars to exservice men. Boston Leader Quits In Los Angeles, more than 1.000 veterans were pledged to join the bonus crusade, one of the few instances of new platoons forming, but in Boston, a recruiting attempt failed when the leader withdrew because he had been told Communists were backing the march. Units encountering difficulties in completing their pilgrimage included 480 Oklahoma and Texas veterans stranded at Memphis, Tenn.; 420 who walked from Cleveland to Maple Heights, a suburb, in search of transportation, and 200 Chicagoans who have been marooned at Hammond, Ind., since Saturday. Free Food Offered Other units cn route to the capital included: approximately 400 from Linden*N. Y.; 200 from Philadelphia; 100 somewhere in North Carolina; 240 at East St. Louis. 111. An offer to provide food for the bonus army in Washington, if the railroads or congress will transport it free, was made today by the Farmers' Holiday Association of lowa. State police were called to Connellsville. Pa., to guard against possible disorders as all east-bound trains over the Baltimore & Ohio railroad were tied up to halt the march” of 400 veterans to Washington. PLANES GRAZE; TWO DIE Pilot Loses Control of Craft In Near-Collision. By United Prrgg LANSING. Mich., June 6.—When two planes grazed each other in midair Sunday, one, piloted by Ford Bott, crashed to earth, killing Miss Elsie Breitnebarch, 18. and himself instantly. Bott lo6t control after his ship grazed one piloted by Carl Schopp Sr Miss Breitenbach's sister Irma, 15, was a passenger in the Schopp plane.

The second trip of Duncan from the jail was after the trial, when defense attorneys sought to question him. At that time. George R. Jeffrey, district attorney, left the room when other federal agents departed and the questioning was blocked. The defense sought Duncan's statement as basis for anew trial motion. Today Alf Meloy. United States marshal, refused a permit to a reporter to talk to Duncan. “I don't know why Duncan is in jail." he admitted. Jeffrey was “too busy" to see a reporter who wanted to know why Duncan was held. Telford B. Orbison. assist?nt district attorney, "thinks Duncan is held on a liquor transportation charge." But it took deputy sheriffs to clear the atmosphere to some extent. Their record shows Duncan is held for alleged violation of the national prohibition law. And, as the legal term states—"further deponent sayeth not."

G.O.P. FEUDS FLAME ON EVE OF CONVENTION Marshall-Leslie Group Out to Seize Control From Senator Watson, GOVERNOR RACE HEATED State Chairman Morgan Is Reported as Hopeful of Nomination. BY BEN STERN Feuds which have been smoldering for four years have burst into flame and Hoosier Republicans, on the eve of their state convention, set for Wednesday and Thursday, today found official personnel of their state organization split asunder. In two of the four rooms of state headquarters are held the conferences of the Leslie-Marshall group, striving to wrest control of the Indiana Republican organization from the veteran Senator James E. Watson. In the other two rooms, are concentrated efforts of those trying ! to hold the party in line. In the middle of this imbroglio, although not entirely neutral, is State Chairman Ivan C. Morgan, who is said to be walking about ! with a lightning rod on each shoulder, hoping that the Governor nomination will strike in his direction. Works for Moorman In furtherance of his own ambitions, Morgan for weeks has been insisting that his friend, John; Moorman of Knox be selected i permanent chairman, so that in | event of a deadlock the spotlight, will be turned in his direction. It is an open secret that desperate efforts have been made to obtain the permanent chairmanship for Governor Harry G. Leslie, who said that he personally had made no bid, because he is “so busy with special session affairs,” but who did not say that he would refuse the honor. Plans of the anti-Watson group, which includes Leslie, his “prime minister,’’ Henry Marshall, Lafayette publisher; Miss Dorothy Cunningham, of the “road contracting Cunninghams,” and national committeewoman, and Mrs. Beryl Holland of Bloomington, state vicechairman, today called for the nomination of Arthur H. Sapp, highway commissioner, as Governor. Set-Up Would Be Great This choice may be changed if after several ballots it is learned that he can’t “go places.” With Leslie as permanent chairman, backed by his years of experience as gavel swinger in the house of representatives, the set-up would be perfect. But Watson, it is learned, has i been insisting that Elza O. Rogers | of Lebanon, former state chairman, be placed in control of the gavel j in an effort to counteract the Les(Turn to Page Three) QUAKE ROCKS COAST One Killed: Property Is Damaged by Shocks. By United Prett EUREKA, Cal., June 6.—Four; separate earth quakes shook the northern California coast line today, 1 killing one person and injuring two! others in Eureka and causing widespread, but minor, damages. Mrs. Wallace McCutcheon, 35, was killed while asleep when a chimney i crashed through the wall of a room-, ing house. Reports from Crescent City, about; eighty-flve miles north of Eureka: Ferndale, Fortuna. Areata, Field- j brook and other small towns in Eureka county showed the tremors were felt there. Small landslides were reported. One blocked the highway two miles south of Eureka. Property damage was estimated in the thousands of; dollars. The quake began at 12:45 a. m.. when most people in the towns af- j fected were asleep and sheltered j from flying debris. 70 POISONED BY PIES Ptomaine Caused by Pastry From Cleveland Bakery. By United Prrtt CLEVELAND. June 6.—A strawberry pie dessert for Sunday dinner gave at least seventy persons ptomaine poisoning here, according to reports today to city health authorities. Eight similar cases were re- j ported from Akron. All of the victims, it was found ate pies that came from the same Cleveland bakery.

Polish Sea Flier Feared Lost

The flame-colored monoplane of Stanislaus Hausner, Newark. N.

Barren Island, N. Y. Called the “mystery man of aviation” because of his reticence to discuss his flying plans, Hausner, now believed lost, is at the right.

WASTE OF SCHOOL FUNDS IS CHARGED

Excessive Amounts Paid on Plumbing Job, Warren Township Claims. Charges that William H. Cooper, former Warren township trustee, paid an excessive price of $20,432 for plumbing fixtures for schools without advertising, receiving bids, or letting contracts, were made to* day before Circuit Judge Harry O. Chamberlin. These facts were bared at hearing of a suit against the township, brought by George H. Rickes, plumbing contractor, who alleges $3,669 is due him for installation of the fixtures. Cooper did not deny the charges, but testified he “did not receive bids, but went on the open market and bought materials." Charles M. Walker, present trustee, refuses to pay the $3,669 to Rickes. who already has collected $16,762.76. Probed by State A state board of accounts probe, more than a year ago, revealed that Cooper had paid plumbers and helpers hgih wages, according to court testimony. Evidence introduced indicated $2.25 an hour was paid plumbers and $1.25 for helpers, contrasting with $1.85, regular plumbers’ rate, and 70 cents for helpers. John F. Linder, Walker’s attorney, alleged that “Cooper failed to itemize plumbing expenditures in his report and no one could tell the actual charges." He further charged there was no evidence of the advisory board having appropriated funds for plumbing repairs. Excessive Prices Alleged "On bills for plumbing are listed such items as five screws and seven gaskets for the excessive price of $11.40,” Linder declared. “The excessive expenditures.” according to Walker,” have thrown the township into financial straits.’ The township owes approximately $50,000, which Cooper borrowed to replenish the common school fund, records show. Walker's attorneys also alleged that costs for transporting workmen from shops to the schools were not itemized properly, but listed as bills for dray service. AMELIA IS DECORATED Awarded Golden Wings Insignia of Lafayette Escadrille. By United Prrtt PARIS. June 6.—Veterans of the famous Lafayette Escadrille, which flew and fought for France in the World war, pinned the squadron’s insignia of golden wings today on Amelia Earhart Putnam, American trans-Atlantic flier. She will start for Rome by train Tuesday, bad weather causing her to cancel her plan to fly. Special arrangements were completed allowing her to enter Italy. She was refused a visa last year, after publication of a book displeasing to the government.

EMPHATIC DEMAND IS MADE BY ROOSEVELT FOR ACTION ON WALKER

By United Pre * NEW YORK. June 6 —Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt will have the evidence against Mayor James J. Walker not later than Wednesday of this week, and Tammany Hall fears he will act on that evidence before the Democratic national convention. Walker is a delegate. Submission of evidence and analysis of testimony will be Samuel Seaburv's response to critical comment by the Gov i nor, which called for the investigating committee to “stop talking and act.” because this was "no time for political sniping.” The Governor's angry’ criticism was the result of general publication of news stories to the effect that the committee and Seabury, its counsel, planned to take no action, but leave the initiative to Roosevelt, to "see what he would do.” and thus “put him on the spot." Seabury has offered no comment on the Governor's statement, nor

WELL IS FINISHED Methodist Hospital Free of Water Company. Savings of more than $1,200 a month will be effected by installation of a rock well at the Methodist hospital, it was announced today. Service of the Indianapolis Water Company will be discontinued. The well, drilling of which was completed Thursday, is 600 feet deep and is described as one of the best in the state.

DARROW AIDS YOUTH He’ll ‘Fight to Last Ditch’ to Save Slayer. By Unit< and Prrtt CHICAGO, June 6. Clarence Darrow, veteran of half a hundred important court battles and the defending attorney in the Honolulu "honor slaying" trial, said today that he would “fight to the last ditch" before the Illinois supreme court to save 17-year-old Russell McWilliams from the electric chair. Young McWilliams, Rockford youth who killed a street car motorman in a holdup at Rockford last summer, is awaiting infliction of the death penalty June 24, in Joliet penitentiary. Arguments supporting the appeal probably will be made before the state supreme court within a few days. Darrow said today. He plans to appear in person. Action Sure on P. O.

has he commented on a statement Saturday night accredited to a ‘spokesman" for Governor Roosevelt bitterly attacking Seabury. The spokesman's statement accused Seabury of attempting to spike the Roosevelt presidential campaign plans in the interest of his own. A few nonpartisan friends of Seabury have advanced him as a "deadlock" possibility, and copies of his biography have been placed throughout the country. There was some speculation that Roosevelt would remove Walker if the official transcript of evidence confirmed the unofficial reports he has read. This was based on Roosevelt's critical comment on the committee’s work. To criticise the committee for inaction, in the language chosen by Roosevelt, and then to dismiss charges, it was reasoned, would make Roosevelt the laughing stock of the country outside New York.

Hausner Long Overdue on Hop to Warsaw: Wait Vainly for News. By J nited Prctt LONDON. June 6. Airdromes from London to Warsaw and air ofcials of several European nations who waited in vain for word of Stanislau Hausner on his projected New York-Warsaw flight feared today that he had been lost in the Atlantic. The only possibility was that he might have landed somewhere on ! the continent where he would be out of communication with the world. His fuel supply would have been exhausted early Sunday. A garage proprietor at Cork, Ireland. over which the Great Circle route would carry a flier over St. George's channel, reported he heard the motor of a powerful airplane early Sunday.

HOUSE VOTES TUESDAY ON GARNER BILL Drastic Procedure Ordered on Relief Measure by Rules Committee. FOUGHT BY PRESIDENT Hoover Returns From Camp to Lead Battle for Own Program. By United Peru WASHINGTON. June 6.—ln the face of renewed presidential opposition, the house rules committee decided today to bring the Garner $2,300,000,000 relief program before the house Tuesday under drastic i procedure which would assure a i vote in three hours. President Hoover returned to the • White House from a week-end spent with his financial advisers at ! his Rapidan fishing camp, to direct the legislative drive toward his own relief program. The administration plan is to avoid the bond proposals contained in the Democratic pro- : posals. One phase of the President’s program. that relating to establishment of twelve home loan discount banks, was revived in the senate, where a subcommittee was directed to prepare a report on the Watson bill to that end. Passage Is Forecast A passage of the Garner bill was predicted, since Democrats have bound themselves in party caucus, with only a few dissenters, to sup- | port it. Also, the rule which the committee will seek to have approved limits debate to three hours and confines it to amendments offered by j the ways and means committee. Vote of the rules committee was 8 to 4, along strict party lines. Representative Bankhead (Dem., Ala.), in offering the stringent rule to the committee, admitted it "probably was the most drastic in a long time." None of the ways and means committee amendments which would be offered would be subject to further amendments. Great Power Given Representative Michcner (Rep.. Mich.), said before the vote was taken that the rule, “wiping out as ! it does every standing rule of the house practically allows the ways and mean committee to legislate." A White House statement summarizing the Rapidan conference said a bond issue would “unbalance the budget and would render financing of the operations of the reconstruction corporation extremely difficult, if not impossible, and would increase rather than decrease unemployment." The $1,119,000,000 tax bill was presented in the senate today for final action. It is scheduled for quick approval and dispatch to the White House before nightfall. Senator Howell (Rep., Neb.) immediately opened the fight on the conference report, objecting to the 3 per cent tax on users of electrical energy. Howell made a point of order against the action of the conferees. He said the conferees had exceeded their authority in levying “a sales tax on consumption of electrical energy." Right Is Denied He contended the conferees had no right to extend the tax to energy from publicly owned power plants. “The senate specifically excluded energy from publicly owned power plants," Howell said. "It must be evident that this is new matter and constitutes legislation by the conferees. “Under the rule, the conferees have exceeded their power.” 4 FAIL TO RAISE BOND Men Convicted in Muncie Case Must Remain in Jail. Four men convicted with Mayor George Dale in the Muncie liquor conspiracy cases, will be held in jail until they provide acceptable appeal bond, A1 Meloy, United States marshal, said today. Three more of the eleven who were convicted were released Sunday on bond. They are Kenneth Horstman, Harry Nelson and Dan Davis. Dale and Ray Powell previously were released on bail pending appeal. Four of the prisoners who have not yet posted appeal bonds are Frank Massie, police chief; Fred El- • lis, safety board member; Ernest Flatters, patrolman, and Fred Kubeck.
