HOOVER CITED BY LABOR FOR VETOING BILLS Action on ‘Objectionable’ Judges Also Held Against President. 4 By Scrippt-Hotcard Xewipapcr Alliance WASHINGTON, Sept. 28.—The American Federation of Labor In an analysis of party platforms and records of candidates today cited President Herbert Hoover for vetoing two bills favorable to labor and for appointing three federal judges, Parker, Wilkerson and MacKintosh, who were objectionable to labor. No actions injurious to labor Interests by Franklin Roosevelt, either as state senator or as Governor, were mentioned. The analysis pointed to Roosevelt's action in vetoing five bills, which labor opposed. The bills, which Mr. Hoover vetoed despite labor support for them would have increased wages for letter carriers, and provided for government operation of the Muscle Shoals hydro-electric plant. The federation also compared the two party platforms, with relation to the twenty-six platform plank proposals made to each convention by its representatives. It showed labor failed to obtain any statement of policy from the Republicans in twelve instances, and from the Democrats on seventeen subjects. The Republican platform was silent on anti-trust laws, coal industry, conscription, unemployment, unemployment emergencies, technological unemployment, vocational training, protection of federal employes, old-age security, liberalization of the federal retirement act, modification of the Volstead act, and maintenance of the estate tax and opposition to a sales tax. The Democratic platform was silent on coal, recognition of labor’s rights, conscription, free speech and press, high wages, unemployment emergencies, technological unemployment, vocational training, employment service, immigration, Puerto Rico, adequate accident compensation, labor department, protection of federal employes, liberalization of the federal retirement action, home-owning, and maintenance of the estate tax and opposition to the sales tax. In John Garner’s record there were listed sixteen votes unfavorable to labor, eleven favorable. In Charles Curtis’ record were listed twelve votes unfavorable to labor, sixteen favorable. President Green and other officers of the federation, which is following its usual nonpartisan course, conclude the • analysis by urging labor men to vote for labor's friends, opposing sales-tax advocates. ’’Oppose our enemies and defeat them, whether they be candidates for President, for congress or other offices: whether executive, legislative or judicial,” the appeal said.

Rat-tling Time If aid of the Pied Piper of Hamlin had been invoked in solution of a midnight mystery in an east side home Tuesday night, several chills might have been evaded by two Indianapolis policemen and a family of five persons. Summoned to the home of R. B. Cooke, 1102 North Healing avenue, twice during the evening as a mysterious knock repeatedly broke the silence of the home, patrolman Joseph T. Wilson and William Fischer traced the blame to a mouse making nocturnal rounds via water pipes in the basement of the home. The sound, which had persisted for four da5 T s, was caused by the knocking of the pipes as the mouse followed its route, the policemen learned after stealthy investigation of more than an hour.

MAYOR GRANTS BUS FRANCHISE Trackless Trolleys to Be Put in Use Shortly. Temporary six months’ franchise for the operation of trackless trolley busses over the South Meridian and Riverside lines has been granted Indianapolis Railways, Inc., Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan announced today. The special ruling, reached at a conference with board of works

PAGE 7

members and the city legal staff Tuesday, will be revocable at any time. Sullivan said, but will permit, operation of the lines until definite franchise terms can be settled. It is expected that the trackless trolleys will be in use within the next sixty days on both lines. Anew franchise is required for operation of the busses because portions of the routes lie over streets not included heretofore in the street car company’s right of way. City officials demanded that the street car company arrange to share in the expense of maintaining streets over which the busses will operate, in accordance with the similar arrangements existing where street car tracks are laid.
