PEOPLE WANT LIQUOR VOTE. TEXANS SHOW Proposal to Resubmit Dry Issue Passes 3 to 1 at Election. Hy Hcripps-Hnirord Xnespoper Allinnrr WASHINGTON, July 26.—Tcxa-s today furnished the nation with concrete evidence that the people want a chance to vote on repeal of the eighteenth amendment. If doubt recently has existed, politicians here believed that Texas settled the question. For, by a vote of almost, three to one, the state has gone on record favoring a proposal to resubmit the eighteenth amendment to a vote of the people. Significance of this vote is held here to be not only in the fact that Texas is the home of that ultra-dry, Senator Morris Sheppard, known as co-author of the eighteenth amendment. It also is because the Texas vote is considered the first official exhibition of what voters think about resubmitting the liquor question to voters. Shows Texas Is Damp State While the Texas vote on resubmission might have been surprising to those who judged Texas’ dryness by the record of Sheppard and at least fifteen of its eighteen congressmen, it bore out what impartial observers had been saying for several years. That is, that Texas is and has been a damp state. The first time this was proved officially was when the state Democratic convention at Houston this spring adopted a resubmission plank, and instructed its delegates to the Chicago convention. It was' proved again, when this delegation voted for the repealmodification plank at Chicago. Sheppard has said that if Texas voted for re-submission he would consider it an instruction to vote for a resubmission resolution in congress. Challenged by Drvs But he has made no further statement since the election of Saturday, nor has Senator Tom Connall.v <Dem., Tex.), who still is in Washington. Both, apparently, are waiting for final results. The vote on prohibition was smaller than that cast in the gubernatorial race, and there were several Texas counties where the liquor question was not put on the ballot. Extreme drys in Texas already have claimed that on this basis the resubmission poll is not representative. Whether Texas' national legislators thus will question the result remains to be determined. Os equal significance to Washington with the prohibition vote was the report that in several Texas counties Saturday Negroes were permitted to vote. Permit Negroes to Vote The Democratic party’s refusal to permit Negroes to vote twice has been contested through the United States supreme court, and in each case the Negroes’ rights have been upheld. Between the first and second cases the state law was changed, but Justice Cardozo, in the second opinion, handed down this spring, again asserted the rights of Negroes to east ballots in Democratic primaries in Texas. This decision, apparently, was the thing that opened the polls to Negro voters in some counties. DE WITT PARKER BOUND OVER TO GRAND JURY Kx-Convict Held on $2,000 Bond in Grand Larceny Case.

Germans See Hitler Deal to Share Rule With Iron Militarist

Martial Law Lifted and Trade Is Hinted With ‘Strong Man.’ BY FREDERICK KUH I'nllrd Pru Staff Crr*ion<lMit BERLIN, July 26. Modified martial law was lifted in Berlin and Brandenburg today as politicians saw in a government ‘‘deal" the possibility that General Kurt von Schleicher, two-fisted militarist, and 1 the dapper Adolf Hitler. Nazi chief, might share power over Germany, j The absence of armed resistance 1 to Von Papen's seizure of power in Prussia, upholding of the legality of the "putsch” in the supreme court, and a sudden decline in political disorders explained President Paul von Hindenbrgs removal of military control. Civil authorities were in full possession of executive power and police control. The ban on newspapers inflicted for demanding a general strike and criticising the military was not removed. Hitlerism Is Indorsed Hitlerism was indorsed today in a declaration by fifty-one university professors, including the Nobel prize physicist, Dr. Philip Lenard of Heidelberg. "We expect from National Socialist leadership," the declaration said, "purification of public life and the salvage of the German people. We | I are determined to co-operate." Von Papen, secure in his position as the reichs commissioner in Pryssia, through a favorable supreme court decision, lifted a two-year-old ban on Nazis holding office in Prussia. The Socialists had barred Hitler’s men through a decree prohibiting "members of parties inimical to the state from participating in the government.” Nazis thus were able to fill the

Bonus Army May Copy Hitler and Mussolini

Organizing of ‘Khaki Shirts’ Considered by Leaders of B. E. F. By Heriyps-fJr/ieard Xctcspn Alti' re WASHINGTON, July 26.—Formation of the bonus army into a nation-wide organization, with nonveteran as well as veteran members, comparable with the Fascist armies of Mussolini and Hitler, is suggested in this week's issue of the B. E. F. news sheets. "Many persons interested in the new development of the B. E. F. already have urged commander Waters to Rive the movement a more striking solidarity by adopting as a symbol the khaki shirt,” says the lead article on the front page of the paper. “The plan is under consideration, and a decision will be announced soon. Those who favor it feel that it will be easy to organize a million men, to be known as the Khaki shirts. "As members of the Khaki Shirts, both veteran* and non-veterans would form local units. These units would be united into divisions or corps areas.. Then all would be brought together into a great national union. “Inevitably, such organization brings up comparison with the Fascist! of Italy and the Nazi ol Germany. For five years Hitler was lampooned and derided. But today he controls Germany. Mussolini, before the war, was a tramp printer, driven from Italy because of his political views. But today he is a world figure. "The Khaki Shirts, however, would be essentially American. Its principles would be based on wholehearted devotion to the best traditions of the nation, and a determination that the down-trodden masses have justice.” GRILL 3 SUSPECTS IN SCOTTSBURG ROBBERY City Man Among Trio Questioned on $4,000 Bank Holdup.

Also hundreds of Hitler’s men holding office 'without revealing their Fascist connection were able to announce publicly their Hitler allegiance. Although Von Schleicher's power in the reich is considered entirely favorable to restoration of the monarchy, this question had not assumed great importance in the campaign for the reich'Stag elections to be held Sunday. The opinion of members of the cabinet known to prefer a monarchy was portrayed in the statement of Baron Wilhelm von Gayl, minister of interior, who said in answer to a question as to how the cabinet viewed restoration. “There are far more important tasks besetting the German government for some time to come."

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BORAH'S DEBT VIEWS AGREE WITH HOOVER'S Administration Anxiously Awaiting Tide of Public Opinion Reaction. BY JOSEPH H. BAIRD T’nHed Press Stiff Correspondent WASHINGTON. July 26—Senator William E. Borah's declaration for a program of international economic recovery, including conditional adjustment of war debts, was described today in an informed quarter as a fairly accurate presentation of the administration's views. This is true, it was learned,-despite the fact Borah spoke without guidance from President Hoover or Secretary of State Henry L. Stimson. The state department knew in advance of Borah’s speech, but did not help frame it. Now that Borah has cast his ideas upon the waters of public opinion, officials are watching anxiously to see what the tide of reaction brings in. Seeks to Win Over Public The administration is convinced that American sentiment now is opposed to any adjustment of war debts. That conviction is a guiding factor in its policy of refusing to consider debt reduction at this time. But Borah in the past has been influential. He is prepared to take the stump this summer and fall in an effort to swing public opinion in favor of his program. Borah advocated disarmament, revision of the Versailles treaty, economic and financial stabilization and conditional war debt revision. Praising the Lausanne accord, virtually ending reparations, Borah said that if the policies initiated at Lausanne are carried out, “there will come a time when it will be to the interest of the people of the United States to consider again the question of these (war) debts." Want Debt Parley The administration is understood to agree with this statement. It is convinced that merely to cancel Europe's debts would do little to solve the world’s problems of peace and prosperity. But to achieve disarmament, stable money, political peace in Europe, and better prices for American exports at the cast of anew deal on war debts is regarded by many officials here as distinctly advantageous to the United States. Just how such a program might be worked out is not yet clear to those who must direct it. United States should take the lead in calling anew conference to tackle disarmament, debts and economic problems together. PLEADS FOR REPEAL ‘Essential to Prosperity,’ Is Dr. Butler’s War Cry. llu United Press NEW YORK, July 26—The repeal of the eighteenth amendment is “an essential step toward the revival of prosperity in the United States,” Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university, said today, when he returned from Europe. “It will be futile for any candidate in the hope of conciliating any element of the population, to attempt to subordinate repeal to the solution of economic problems,” Butler said: “Every interest of the American people requires the quick repeal of the eighteenth amendment and immediate action to bring about a restoration of prosperity, through international co-operating."

BILL PROPOSES BLANKET GUT IN STATE BUDGETS Only Penal and Benevolent Institutions Excepted in 20 Per Cent Slash. Blanket cut of 20 per cent in budgets of all state departments, except penal and benevolent institutions, is provided in the Crawford bill reported today for passage in house of representatives by the ways and means committee. After a week of argument on the measure by the committee, during which it appeared the blanket cut would be 15 per cent, the change came as a surprise at a meeting Monday night. Two committee members signed a minority report against passage of the bill. Meanwhile, fate of the state highway funds is in the hands of a special senate committee, composed of three Democrats and three Republicans. Name Steering Group After adjournment of the senate today the committee is to determine what that fate shall be. The committee has been appointed a steering group for all state highway fund bills, with orders to report recommendations Wednesday afternoon. Appointment of a steering committee checkmated action on fund diversion bills, which were ready for passage is a special order of business in the senate Monday afternoon. Various motions to delay action on the measures finally threw the upper house into a hopeless tangle without leadership. Provides Funds Split Members of the committee are Senators John C. Sherwood, chairman, Charles L. Strey, Robert L. Moorhead, Russell P. Kehoe, William P. Dennigan and Thollie W. Druley. It was the Druley-Doogs bills which were on passage when halted. They provide that half of the automobile license fees and gasoline tax be returned to the cities, counties ar.d towns. Other bills to be considered by the special committee will include those providing for the state highway commission to keep funds and increase mileage and the house bills calling for 50-50 diversion. Limits Local Tax Rate The house ways and means committee also reported for passage the senate bill limiting total local tax rates to $1.50, including a maximum state levy of 15 cents, and the Hoffman senate bill repealing mandatory levies and giving local authorities full power to fix salaries. The Chambers senate bill transferring all township roads to the county highway system also was recommended for passage. Coincident with the committee’s report, eight Indiana tax reduction organizations went on record at a joint meeting Monday night demanding government retrenchment.
