PAY DAY WITH NO PAY FACES CITY TEACHERS School Board Cast in Role of Mother Hubbard: Cupboard Is Bare. HOPE FOR BANKS’ HELP Instructors May Be Forced to Wait Till November for Salaries. Two thousand Indianapolis school teachers," janitors and clerks may not be paid their salaries until after the November collection of taxes, probably not earlier than Nov. 15, The Times learned today. Confronted by financial hazards school officials announced that they are negotiating with banks in an attempt to utilize sinking fund cash and investments to increase the borrowing limit. The plan, if approved by the banks, may solve the problem of meeting nearly $500,000 in salaries Oct. 1. A. B. Good, school business director, who pointed out that the schools depend on the borrowing margin which has been affected by tax delinquencies and assessment reductins, will handle the negotiations. Borrowing Limit Reduced The borrowing limit, of the school system recently was reduced to $120,000, when the board took $200,000 of the $320,000 margin to meet current expenses during the sum mer. The amount remaining would make but small impression on the huge salary roll facing the board at the end of this month. Board members are opposed to Issuance of warrants or script in lieu of pay. and have decided that if the pay roll can not be met, it must be held in abeyance until taxes are collected in November. If the wages are not paid the first of October and November, the school debt will more than double. Will Confer With Banks Good said that finances of the entire school sinking fund will be laid before the banks, in an attempt to meet the situation. The school system has $470,000 in cash in this fund and $85,000 in sinking fund investments. This coupled with the $120,000 would bring $675,000 into operation for a margin. The banks may refuse to countenance suport of the proposal, because sinking funds are laid aside each year to provide for maturity of previously issued bonds, it was pointed out. Teachers have almost a full month's pay due them Oct. 1. They started the fall semester Sept. 6. Majority of the janitors and office employes worked through the summer, and have been paid regularly. Like Chicago Situation Nonpayment of salaries would throw the school system into a situation similar to that in Chicago, where teachers were unpaid for months. That condition was followed by inability of the city to pay police and firemen. Good and other officials said that If a plan is effected whereby the sinking fund finances can be utilized as borrowing margin, the tax payment will be sufficient to meet loans and salaries. Prospect of a payless month followed closely on additional salary cuts among school employes. WORKER BADLY INJURED Strikes En dos Spine in Fall From Trailer at Stockyards.

BONUS ARMY CHIEF SPIKES MITCHELL’S CRY OF ‘CRIMINALS’ Attorney-General’s Statement Riddled by Doak Carter; Cites Hurley’s Forecast *of Killing in Riot. TYjTITHERING comment was made today by Doak E. Carter, who was * chief of staff to W. W. Waters, bonus army commander, on a report by Attorney-General William Mitchell that the B. E. F„ driven from Washington by troops, contained many Communists and criminals. "The bonus army was no more criminal than the cabinet in which President Hoover served,” Carter declared. Albert R. Fall, a member of that cabinet, served a prison term as a result of a conviction in the Tea pot Dome oil case. Carter, whose home is in Cleveland, is in Indianapolis, organizing the American Emergency Forces, anew A. E. F., with relief work by

government aid as its objective. Os the 4,723 persons who applied for transportation after the troop attack, Mitchell declares 1,069 had police records, and that the bonus army was incited to riot by Communists. “Pure politics,” is Carter’s comment on this. Denies Mitchell Charges Mitchell’s statement that first contingents to reach Washington were composed of groups led by former convicts and Communists brought from Carter the assertion that the radicals “jumped in” after the veterans had promoted the B. E. F. Carter intimates that high officials in Washington desired that some disorder occur, so that there would be an excuse to eject the B. E. F. “There were Communists in Washington,” said Carter today. “I repeatedly requested General Glassford, Washington police chief, ana his executive officer, Edwards, to evict them from Washington. There never were more than 500 there. “I was told by Glassford that eeven though they were a menace, they could not be evicted unless they committed some overt act.” “That is peculiar, inasmuch as a recently composed May day riot was broken up when the government was able to ferret out the leaders and have them in jail before May 1. “On July 25, during the Communist picketing of the White House, police arrested nine leaders, including the Communist vice-presi-dential candidate. On July 28, in company with Waters, Herbert S. Ward, a reputable practicing attorney in Washington, and a man named Johnstone, we were invited to call on Secretary of War Patrick J. Hurley. “At the conference, which lasted four hours, were Hurley and General Douglas A. MacArthur, army chief of staff, “Hurley told us that he had definite information from the army intelligence corps that upon evacuation of bonus men, scheduled for Wednesday morning, a riot was to be started by Communists and that a man would be killed. They then had nine Communist leaders under arrest. Early Wednesday these leaders were released from jail, in the face of the so-called information, so they might not be late for the riot. "The Communist group arrived late, after the evacuation, while the situation was peaceful. The leaders arrived by truck, rushed over and started a brick fight. One of the Communists grabbed General Glassford’s badge and rushed into a huddle of Communists. B. E F members broke up the huddle, got the badge and returned it to Glassford. "The brick fight was stopped, yet nobody had been killed. This fight started about noon. Before 9 a. m. that day regular army troops already were waiting in the streets of Washington for orders to march. About T. 30, while a meeting was being held in a partly demolished building. General Glassford started up to the meeting, on the roof, accompanied by a number of police officers, including a man in civilian clothes, who later killed the two veterans. “This man reached the top of the stairway leading to the second floor unmolested. Turning around, he ran halfway down stairs, crouched, and came up firing at the veterans downstairs. One man was killed and one fatally wounded. “The ‘prediction’ of Pat Hurley had been accomplished. Somebody had been killed. Then the army was called into action.”

ROOSEVELT GOES WEST ON 8,000-MILE TRIP TONIGHT

BY FREDERICK A. STORM United Press Staff Correspondent ALBANY. N. Y., Sept. 12.—Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, Democratic presidential nominee, will board a special train tonight for his 8,000-mile “stop, look and listen” tour of the west. Friends of the Governor insisted today that he will subordinate politics on the trip to “an honest desire to see a way out of our economic distress." They declared Roosevelt wants to get first-hand information on the economic situation so that he will be able to formulate constructive relief policies. Roosevelt, who will be gone twen-ty-four days, put the finishing touches to the major speech on agriculture that he will deliver at Topeka. Kan., Wednesday. Three other major addresses are scheduled for the tour, one in Portland, Ore., another at Sioux City, la., and the last at a city yet to be selected. He will be accompanied by his son, James, and his attractive blond daughter, Mrs. Curtiss Dali. Mrs. Roosevelt will join the party at Williams, Ariz., for the return journey. A seven-car special train will carry the Roosevelt party out of Albany at midnight. The train, a regular rolling hotel,

BONUS SCRAP FACES LEGION Bitter Battles Loom for Convention Opening. By United Press PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 12. Commander Henry L. Stevens prepared to rap the fourteenth national convention of the American Legion to order here today, with three outstanding controversial issues in the foreground. The issues are payment of the bonus, treatment of the bonus expeditionary army at Washington, and choice of a successor to Stevens. A small but determined antibonus force was marshaled Sunday night by Sam Reynolds of Omaha, candidate for commander. The Nebraska delegation of 200, pledged by state convention rule to oppose immediate cash payment on adjusted compensation certificates, was backed by the delegations of South Carolina and Florida, similarly instructed. Opposing them, however, were some thirty-six state delegations that had favored bonus payments immediately. Although the Nebraska group will fight any bonus movement, the minority group aligned with them is expected to concentrate on holding the almost certain resolution in such form that immediate cash payment will not be demanded—a demand they declare would wreck government finances should it be met. The release by President Hoover at Washington of the report of At-torney-General William Mitchell justifying calling out of troops to rout the bonus marchehs from Washington was received with complete silence by legion leaders from Stevens down. War Secretary Patrick J. Hurley denied that he had been sent here by the President either to fight the bonus or to censure resolutions. ROB 600JN TRAIN Chinese Bandits in Attack; Many Are Slain.

Jean Harlow to Try to ‘Forget Ghastly Business’ by Plunging Self Into Her ‘Art’

BY RONALD WAGONER United Pres* Staff Correspondent HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 12.—Jean Harlow, glamorous blond widow of the late Paul Bern, dead by his own hand, will seek "to forget the whole ghastly business” by plunging herself into her art. Her stepfather, Marino Bello, made this statement as he asserted again that she did not quarrel with her screen-executive husband prior to his suicide, and added that she is not interested in financial matters connected with his estate. Bern's brother, Henry Bern, meanwhile, continued his determined effort to pierce the veil of mystery surrounding the tragic suicide, despite his failure to obtain additional information in a second conference with Miss Harlow.

AGED MOTHER TOILS TO FREE CONVICT-SON Waging Virtually Hopeless Battle in Behalf of Alleged Killer. BLIND TO LAW’S SIDE Seeks to Set Aside All Precedent With Plea of ‘My Only Boy.’ BY CHARLES C. STONE

Mother’s love, heroic but unreasoning, is waging a splendid, but probably futile, fight to free a son serving a life term in the Illinois state prison for the murder of his wife, Elizabeth. The mother is Mrs. Nancy S. Coleman, 74, of 339 South State avenue. The son is Arthur J. Coleman, for four years employed as taxidermist in the Indiana museum at . the statehouse, and l who is a charter member of Holliday post, American Legion, of this city. Unable to pay counsel, the mother’s earnestness has enlisted James A. Collins as her counsel. Collins, former judge of the Marion criminal court, studied the case, and prepared a petition which was presented to the Illinois board of pardons and paroles. Collins, however, has advised Coleman to withdraw it. He sees the case as an attorney—cold facts and legal knowledge rule his opinion. “He is my only boy,” the aged mother repeats frequently as she discusses the case, as if that were enough to set aside all precedent, and all the law that society has built for its protection. The mother and the father, James Coleman, also 74, are struggling to keep the home at the State avenue address. They mortgaged it for SI,OOO and gave the money to Jesse D. Hamrick, former Indianapolis attorney, to defend Arthur. Hamrick, however, never appeared once in court in the man’s behalf, it is charged. Hamrick served a term in the Indiana state prison, sentenced by Collins on an arson conviction. Arthur Coleman and Elizabeth Schmittler were married in June, (Turn to Page Three)

Before the interview, Bern had said he was convinced Miss Harlow, “alone, knows why my brother shot himself.” Though it was revealed that Bern was host at a dinner party in a private bungalow of the Ambassador hotel the Saturday evening before his death, the man and woman who were his guests remained unidentified. Whether they were friends he met my chance after leaving his studio, or whether Bern had arranged the affair as a “suicide banquest,” was undetermined. His guests had not come forward to explain. Miss Harlow and Henry Bern talked for two hours. The actress was exhausted completely altar the

FLYING FAMILY STILL MISSING Fail to Find Hutchinsons After S 0 S Call. . By United Press COPENHAGEN, Sept. 12.—Twen-ty-four hours search in the waters of Denmark strait revealed no trace today of Colonel George R. Hutchinson and his “flying family” of eight persons, who made a forced landing Sunday in their amphibian airplane. The Greenland board asked Knud Rasmussen, famous explorer, to join the search in his motorship Thstauning. Rasmussen was about 400 miles south of where the Hutchinsons came down en route from Julianehaab to Angmagsslik on a flight by easy stages from New York to Europe. Greenland authorities frankly were pessimistic over chances of finding the plane and the flying family aboard. Aboard the plane were Colonel and Mrs. Hutchinson, their two young daughters, Katherine, 8, and Janet Lee, 6; Navigator Peter Redpath; Mechanic Joseph Ruff, Radioman Gerald Allissish, and Cameraman Norman Alley. The plane made the emergency landing at 3:10 p. m. Sunday. The SOS signals stopped at 4:20 p. m. The flying family left New York Aug. 23.

LESLIE ‘GUARDS’ SIOO,OOO VOTED FOR MINE TROOPS

“It’s the Governor's orders.” That cryptic explanation is the only one given for the action of Governor Harry G.

Instead of applying part of the

DRYS’LEADER HUNTS ROSINS Dr. Poling in Chicago to Open Search. By United Press CHICAGO, Sept. 12.—Dr. Daniel A. Poling, head of the allied forces for prohbiition, began a personal search here today for his close friend and associate, Colonel Raymond Robins, missing since starting for New York to keep an appointment with President Hoover in Washington a week ago Saturday. The first move of Dr. Poling after his arrival today by airplane from Portland, Ore., was to telephone Mrs. Robins at Southwest Harbor, Me. She has no clews to her husband’s whereabouts, Dr. Poling said he was told. Then Dr. Poling laid out his plan: “I am going to talk to each of the seven persons here who have said they saw Colonel Robins, he said. “If I am convinced that any of them did see him, I will be fairly certain that my friend is ill, and can abandon theories that he met with foul play at ttye hands of bootleggers or white Russians.” While he admitted he knew of a “series, of threats against Colonel Robins by underworld characters of the midwest,” Dr. Poling apparently favored the illness or amnesia theory.

SIOO,OOO appropriation. Governor Leslie has used part of his emergency contingent fund, it was revealed today. Opponents of the SIOO,OOO appropriation contended when it was rushed through the assembly in twenty-four hours that the Governor's personal fund should be exhausted before more money was voted. On Aug. 24, $8,117.92 was taken from the Governor's personal fund for troops expense, and $3,485.28 was paid out Sept. 8. A balance of $67,371.28 remains in the fund and the SIOO,OOO emergency appropriation meanwhile remains intact. Any balance in the Governor’s personal fund would be returned to the general fund at the close of the fiscal year, Oct. 1, but the SIOO,000 will be available for uSe of the military until Feb. 1, 1933, under the statute granting the appropriation. When the SIOO,OOO was voted, friends of the administration overrode protests by asserting there was no doubt the Governor could use his personal fund for military use. although Attorney-General James M. Ogden declared in an oral opinion the Governor cou’d use his fund for anything he chose. Efforts to make another appropriation of SIOO,OOO to feed families of starving miners failed because it had no administration backing. None of the Governor’s emergency fund ever has been spent for relief of miners or other needy, records show. Only $3,613.31 of the fund has been spent on the military.

DISSOLUTION ORDER DEFIED BY REICHSTAG Breaks Into Open Revolt When Von Papen Appears to Read Decree. MARTIAL LAW EXPECTED Communists and Fascists Declare War on Cabinet: Vote After ‘Quit’ Edict. BY FREDERICK KUH * United Press Staff Correspondent BERLIN, Sept. 12.—The reichstag, amid tumuitouous scenes, was dissolved by the Von Papen government today*but broke into open re- | bellion and refused to consider itself j dissolved. A “state of emergency,” similar to martial law, was expected to be declared. As soon as the reichstag convened to hear the maiden ministerial declaration of Chancellor Franz von Papen, the Communists and Hitler’s Fascists declared war on the government. Insists on Vote Without awaiting Von Papen’s speech, Herman Goering, the speaker, who is a Hitlerite deputy, called for immediate vote on Communist motions rescinding President Paul von Hindenburg’s emergency decree of Sept. 4. providing a rigid one-year plan of economy to save the country's finances and also of misconfidence in the government.

Von Papen immediately read a I decree of dissolution. Georing refused to leave the rostrum, however, and insisted on a vote. The Communist motions were passed, SIS to 32, with only five abstentions. Amid thunderous cheers from the opposition, Goering declared he considered the dissolution decrees invalid because they were presented by a government which had been overthrown by the reichstag. Geering first called the reichstag to meet again Tuesday, but later he cancelled the Tuesday session. Martial Law Expected The government was expected to proclaim a state of emergency tonight, under which it would rule much as under martial law. The dissolution order was preceded by the most dramatic scene in German parliamentary history. Von Papen walked to the rostrum with the familiar red government proclamation, containing Van Hin- ! denburg’s dissolution decree, under his arm. Goering brushed Von Papen aside, exclaiming: “Don't you see the house is now busy taking a vote?” Such an open challenge to the government’s authority was greeted with a sotrmy applause from a vast majority of the dtputies. Von Papen, outwardly calm, but obviously struggling with intense emotoin, opened the portfolio and hande Goering a paper containing the dissolution order. Goering raised his hand with a gesture of refusal, whereupon Von Papen dumped the dissolution order on the Speaker's desk, while all the members of the cabinet filed out of the hall amid Cummunist shouts of “Down with the Von Papen government.” Make Appeal to People Colonel Von Paper summoned his cabinet and discussed the possibil- , ity of proclaiming martial law to prevent the reichstag from meeting. The government admitted that parliament might appeal to the | supreme court to test validity of the j dissolution. Meanwhile, the chancellor said he would broadcast tonight the ; speech he intended to deliver in the reichstag, thus appealing direct to : the people over the heads of the i deputies. Goering announced that several j governments of the various German ; states, especially those “eloese to the ! Fascist,” intend to appeal to the ; supreme court to test the validity of the cabinet’s action in dissolving the Reichstag. It was understood the government | proposes to hold a general election Nov. 30. — SEEK TO BAN ELECTION Court Ruling to Block N\ Y. Mayor Voting Is Asked by Lawyer.
