Aug. 11.—Handling of rattlesnakes and other venomous reptiles is all a matter of vibrations, according to Theodore Tausch, who. for thirty years, has had for his playmates, poisonous snakes. "The snake,’’ Tausch said, "is a copy of your own condition. If you are excited, then he is. If you are friendly and unafraid, then so is he. He can tell by the vibrations of your body your attitude.” a Tausch's occupation is catchtng rattlesnakes and other deadly reptiles with his bare hands. His profession has taken him to many parts of the world. He has been bitten only three times.

“Conscientious Objectors ” IT begins to look very much as if Senator James E. Watson will have to call in out-state speakers to sell him to Indiana voters this fall. Some Republican oratorical mainstays are balking at the task. Latest to join the ranks of the “conscientious objectors’’ to “Promising"—or is it "Double-Crossing” —Jim Watson is LieutenantGovernor Ed?ar D. Bush. "I’ll speak for the ticket this fall as a good Republican should, but no mention of Jim's name will cross my lips,” said Ed in high dudgeon. "It always has been my principle that when I can't say anything good about a man, I keep my mouth shut.” Ed’s anger against Watson is no sudden thing. It came into full flower during the state convention, when Raymond Springer of Connersville, who entered the race for the Governor nomination only a week before the convention, was declared the winner. Bush, as well as M. Bert Thurman and other veterans who were candidates. became irate at Watson when they found that his Boy Scouts were behind the Springer boom, after the senior senator so often protested that he would keep hands off. • a a So patent was his influence In the convention that the cry of "double cross” was raised against Jim.

Several minutes after finding Hall police arrested Henry Fluker, 31, of 1133 Fayette street, en route home from Hall’s house. He is said to have admitted stabbing Hall, but said it was done in self-defense because Hall was “robbing” him. Hall told police he was stabbed while leaning over a trunk in his home.

Republican and stump for the ticket. The other day Ivan C. Morgan, G. O. P. state chairman, asked Bush if he would make a speech in each of the ninety-two counties in behalf of the party, according to Ed. “We will be glad to favor you as much as possible,” Morgan asserted. according to Bush. “I then volunteered my services and asked that Harold Murphy (who is close to Bush) be made head of the speakers’ bureau, and that if they wouldn’t do that, at least to let me have a voice in the selection of the person to head that important department. “Morgan agreed to do so, and now I learn that Archie Bobbitt is chairman of that bureau. The former state auditor is a man I thoroughly dislike. He is one of Watson's faithful adherents, and when they refused even to consult me, it was because they knew I would oppose this choice.” n a ‘•Watson was back of the appointment of Bobbitt, following his usual procedure to fill every available job with his hand-picked crew. “That means some more Watson double-crossing,” said Ed. “If I have to mention his name, I won’t stir off my farm. Thousands of other Republicans in the state feel just as I in this matter.” “Conscientiously objecting” to Jim is getting to be a favorite amusement among Republicans, who feel that at last they have opportunity to gft rid of the man who is ready always to promise, but never delivers.

LOWER CABLE NEWS FORCES WHEAT DOWN Corn Futures Shoot Up at Opening on Bullish Crop Report. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Pres* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Aug. 11.—Weakness in Liverpool offset the strength in stocks, and wheat opened unchanged to fractionally lower on the Board of Trade today. Corn, exhibiting independent strength, firmed up and was fractionally to more than a cent higher. Oats was unchanged” to higher in the minor fractions. At the opening wheat was unchanged to % cent lower; corn was up % to Hi cent, and oats was unchanged to % cent up. Provisiqns were firm. Cables Are Bearish The United States government crop report, issued after the close of the Board of Trade Wednesday, showed less damage to crops than had been estimated previously. Another bullish factor was the estimate for July showing wheat to be 24,000,000 bushels less than had been estimated earlier, but this was somewhat offset by the 10.000,000-bushel increase in the winter crop estimates. Apparently North America will have an exportable surplus of 700,000,000 bushels of the grain. Liverpool took a bearish attitude on the American and Canadian crop reports and opened lower than expected. Com Report Bullish The government crop report showed the grain to be 176,000,000 bushels below the July figures, and this was expected to bolster up the weakened corn pit. Good rains were reported over certain sections of the corn belt last night. The crop report for oats was about unchanged from earlier estimates, and the lethary in this pit promises that that grain will not have much effect on the action in other grains.

Left, Right By Times Special CHICAGO, Aug. 11.—Eric Haack will have thirty days to mediate and learn his left foot from his right one. Eric's limp and the suspicious squeaking of his shoes led to his arrest Wednesday by police investigating theft of a display of left shoes from a downtown store window. When officers checked on Eric, they found that he was wearing two left shoes. “I thought they felt kind of queer, but I didn’t know just what was the matter,” Eric told the judge. Thirty days and SIOO fine was the judge's answer.

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.
Following is the explanaion of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not,” which appeared in Wednesday’s Times: The Mental Marvel—ln 1913, M. C. Berg of New York City discovered the boy wonder. Zerah 11, in a Leeds (England) slum district. Though Zerah never had any schooling, he had a supernatural mind for mathematics, and was able to solve any difficult problem in but a few seconds. The boy was exhibited throughout Great Britain and the United States as a featured vaudeville attraction. and his prowess with figures was tested thousands of times, without failure. Physicians who examined the boy could not account for this power, outside of the fact that the boy’s brain was abnormal. But in the early part of 1916, when Zerah II was but 19 years old, he commenced to lose his peculiar power and within a year he was absolutely helpless so far as mathematics was concerned.

UNCLE SAM'S m NEW TAXES m WHERE THEY HIT YOU—AND HOW! M
This is the fourteenth of twenty daily articles explaining the new federal taxes. BY ROBERT TALLEY NEA Service Writer (Copyright. 1932. NEA Service, Inc.) HOT tunes by radio entertainers and phonograph artists, cold blasts from mechanical refrigerators are all the same to Uncle Sam in his quest of new taxes with which to balance this year’s federal budget. There now is a tax of 5 per cent of the manufacturers’ sale price on radio sets, combination radiophonograph records, the same being estimated to yield $9,000,000 this year.
ON'
There is a 5 per cent manufacturers’ sale tax on mechanical refrigerators, designed to yield $5,000,000. Even though the radio set. or combination radio-phonograph set. is merely a built-in part of a table, a book case, a desk of a grandfather clock, the tax applies to the entire piece of furniture, since the law covers “all articles designed and manufactured for the accommodation of a radio receiving set or a combination radio and phonograph i5 et.”

If a hot song by some radio “torch singer” blows out one of your tubes, there will be a 5 per cent tax on anew one. All phonograph records are subject to the 5 per cent tax. Household type mechanical refrigerators (regardless of whether operated by electricity, gas or kerosene) are taxed at 5 per cent of the manufacturers’ sale price. This, however, does not apply to large commercial refrigerators of a type not used in the household. Os course, the owner of an electric refrigerator also pays the 3 per cent tax on household electricity, contained in another section of the tax law.
The owner of an AC radio set does likewise. If he has a battery set and buys anew battery for the same, he pays a 5 per cent tax on the battery as a radio accessory; though as an auto accessory a battery is taxed at only 2 per cent. In some cases, the 5 per cent tax on radios and refrigerators is absorbed by the dealer. In other cases .there have been negotiations looking to 50-50 payment of the tax by the manufacturer and the dealer. NEXT: Chewing gum, candy, soft drinks and matches. g
