Young after the senate inquiry into the collapsed utilities empire had produced charges that the Insull organizations reported profits to the public while listing losses for income tax purposes. Charges that the Insull company was informing the public of profits while recording losses to the government were made before Young testified by Ferndinand Pecora, committee counsel. Pecora forced Samuel Insull Jr. to testify to profit and loss statemen s by offering photostatic copies of tl e corporation's tax returns. In mil read from an accountant’s report showing Insull Utilities Investment, Inc., earned $10,343,072.24 in the calendar year 1930. Pecora immediately handed him the income tax return for 1930. It showed a loss of $6,493,377.53. Public reports of the Investment Trust profits in 1931 aggregated $5,240,540.36. “Did you sell securities to the public on the basis of the reported net earnings in 1930 and 1931?” “Yes, sir, through dealers,” Insull replied.

Charging he was injured per-' manently when he was shot at the Speedway golf course last summer, Edward Olinski, 16. of 735 Concord street, today sued for $25,000 damages from operators of the course and Charles (Chuck) Garringer, professional golfer.

Button, brother-in-law of Garringer, who assisted at the course. Olinsky was shot Aug. 16, when Garringer carried out threats to “sting” members of a gang of boys who he alleged, had been stealing golf balls from players.

CITY REJECTS PROPOSAL FOR NATURAL GAS Cincinnati Banking Firm at Once Withdraws Its Offer. (Continued From Page One) mit was issued only after agreement that no gas would be sold to the suburbs of Indianapolis. It is in position to sell natural gas by building only fourteen miles of line. But, so asserted the Westheimer offer, the company can not afford to meet its prices because of the rates charted by it to other cities. Reason for the refusal, it Is asserted. was in the fear that the sales of gas, now low, would not increase sufficiently to use the minimum required in the proposed contract and still maintain the present plants, which produce coke and tar as biproducts and provide much of the company revenue. “All that we asked was a thorough investigation of our offer by experts on gas." said Wickham. "Our offer is withdrawn. It could be renewed. We believe that an investigation would show that we could save the people of Indianapolis at least $600,000 a year, provide a more economical fuel and at the same time make mere profitable the gas ! company when the city takes it ; over.
