NEW AIR MAIL . LINE FOR CITY BEING TALKED Large Transport Operators Seek Route From Here to Detroit. Indianapolis soon may become the terminal point of anew passenger and air mail line connecting this city with Detroit, it was learned today. It is known that operators of several large air transport lines have been negotiating for months with the postoffice department for establishment of a mail line between Indianapolis and Toledo, and present indications are that the line may be authorized. An air line to Toledo would provide direct connection with Detroit, inasmuch as Thompson Aeronautical Corporation already operates a line between Toledo and Detroit. Move Began Two Years Ago Movement to obtain an air mail line between here and Detroit was started by Indianapolis business men two years ago, but at that time was not favored by the postoffice department. Then it was proposed to operate the line from Evansville to Detroit. The line proposed at present would make one stop. Ft. Wayne. Among air line operators reported seeking the contract are Transcon-tinental-Western Air, and TransAmerican Air Lines, the latter a subsidiary of Thompson Aeronautical Corporation and operating a short feeder line at present between South Bend and Ft. Wayne. Trans-American offlciais, it is reported, have offered to give up the contract for the South Bend-Fl. Wayne line, which the postofflce department is said to wish to discontinue, in return for award of the proposed Indianapolis - Ft. Wayne line. Other Changes Planned Indianapolis already has direct air connections with such larger cities as Chicago, Cincinnati, Louisville and Atlanta by means of American Airways, and Columbus, Pittsburgh, New York, St. Louis, Kansas City and Los Angeles, on the T.-W. A. line. The postofflce department also is reported to be considering abandonment of the old Interstate line, now operated by American Airways, between Chicago. Evansville and Louisville. Several other changes in the air line network throughout the country are being considered, as result of survey being conducted by postofflce and department of commerce offlciais.

REVEALINSULL AID MISUSED FIRM’SJTOCK Concern’s Security Portfolio Put Up as Collateral for Personal Loan. T'nited Prt*t CHICAGO, Sept. 29.—State’s Attorney John A. Swanson today revealed his inquiry into the illstarred Insull utilities regime had disclosed another case in which an Insull official used his concern's stock portfolio to supply collateral to cover a bank loan. Thejncident was disclosed, Swanson said, in his examination of Marshall E. Sampsell. former president of the Central Illinois Fliblic Service Company, an Insull subsidiary. Sampsell was called to aid in tracing the complicated loans which preceded the Insull collapse. Sampsell was quoted by Swanson as admitting that he took $90,000 in stock without security from the Central Illinois portfolio. The securities were used to bolster $500,000 in personal bank loans w’ith Chicago banks. Sw'anson said Sampsell told the investigators that Martin Insull, brother of Samuel, knew' and approved of the transaction. Previous discovery of a similar transaction involving $400,000 worth of stock had brought Sampsell’s resignation at the demand of receivers.
