CLOSE GUARD TO BE KEPT ON PRICE INFLATION Temporary Boom Will Not Cure 111. Administration Realizes. Bit tcrlpps-Hnteard yetcspaper Alliance WASHINGTON. March 18—Price Inflation has started in the commodity and security markets of the country. Administration officials and economists are watching developments closely today to gauge the actual dollars-and-jobs results of the renewed public confidence engendered by the Roosevelt program of action. The Roosevelt administration drive on the depression has two main phases: 1. To restore and maintain public confidence and improve the government's credit. So far this effort lias been extremely successful, judging from the bank developments, the minor slock market boom, and the high premium on long term government bonds. 2. To provide a remedy for sick business and an impoverished people by providing purchasing power, which means jobs, relief, and better prices for farm products. Stimulant to Prices The new confidence in President Roosevelt, coupled with the pentupj purchasing-power following the nine-day bank holiday, apparently is bringing a stimulant to prices of commodities and simultaneously, but as a result of the same things, ti stock market boom. Administration officials realize, however, that this boom will be temporary unless basic conditions—farm prices and unemployment—are remedied. That is why the farm bill and the forestation projects have been ac, ed this week to the rmergency program of the administration. The place of the Roosevelt currency program in the economic picture Is less clear. The administration persistently has emphasized the bank situation, interpreting its currency expansion in terms of reviving the banks. But the emergency bank act as provides for an almost unlimited “inflation” of currency, if desired. Against Currency Inflation The administration, on the other hand, by its anti-hoarding drive, has taken drastic steps to force the money back into the banks. If this movement is carried out, the business of the country will go back to its former check basis, and the present supply of currency wall be enough to meet all needs. In this situation, therefore, the trend directly is against currency inflation and any artificial skyrocketing of prices, with the terrific distress to the middle classes which inevitably goes with fiat money. The increase of farm prices, followed shortly by hikes in food prices to consumers, which new appears to be under way, likewise will involve hardships for consumers, but in a less drastic, more gradual process. A basic price upturn of this sort, based on commodities, would tend to bring a general and sustained improvement the business, agricultural and wage-earning worlds.

’ABE’ DOPES THE DOPE KINGS

Big Shots Played Sleuth for Sucker and Paid for Fun

Thl* Is the third of a *rrle* of *lx stories of adventures of supermen of the law—skilled investigators srienuflr detective*, and courageous officers— In their conflict with crime. BY LOU WEOEMAR Time* Staff Writer NARCOTIC AGENT N-'45, arriving in New York with an enviable record of work in the cent.i 2 states, was summoned at once by'the chief. “The drug syndicate here has got beyond us," the chief said. "It knows our men, and we are virtually powerless. Your job is to break it up.” “Single-handed?’’ "Not necessarily. But you are a free lance. Do what you think best." N-45 left the chief's office immediately. The conference had been conducted with extreme secrecy. Other agents in the office did not know his identity. Word had reached Washington that the drug syndicate had reached a position of power in New York City. Its l.unions were in every walk of life; drugs were solu to poverty stricken foreigners, to people of the theatrical world, to wealthy diletantes. Its leader moved about without fear of arrest Reports were current that the syndicate’s influence had spread through official life, controlling judges and some of the police. Asa result. Commissioner H. J. Anslinger had been directed to smash the syndicate, no matter whom he hit.

N-45 made only two arrangements with the chief. He asked that funds be sent to him at a telegraph office and arranged a report to the chief by telephone under a code number. “You probably won’t hear from me until I have them all rounded up.” N-45 said. a tt n 'THHE chief shook his head. It sounded like a vain boast, for the underworld's grapevine communication system worked perfectly. If one arrest w’ere made, word of it spread in time to warn evory other member of the syndicate. N-45 disappeared that afternoqn, and was not heard from again for nearly three weeks. In the meantime, Andrew Mandeis, president of the illegal drug syndicate, received word from Detroit that Abe Norzinsky, a “big shot" of the Detroit ring, was coming to New York. Norzinsky, underground channels reported to Mandcis, was going to ask permission to add Detroit to the New' Yoik syndicate. Detroit, hitherto, had been independent; this was made possible by its international connections and the vast field of opportunities in the central states. Mandeis told his pretty wife Joan about it. “Just a rube,” he said. “When he gets among the big timers here, he’ll be easy pickings.” Os course, Mandeis admitted, the amateur might be able to convince the syndicate that a Detroit branch ought to be established. If so, fine. But it probably would be more profitable to “take” Mr. Norzinsky. u a tt COMMUTERS hurrying through the train gates at Grand Central terminal one afternoon in July, 1930, scarcely noticed two flashily-dressed mein, wearing gardenias, awaiting the 6:10 from Detroit. They were representatives of Mandeis, a reception committee for Mr. Norzinsky. Mr. Norzinsky, distinguished also by a gardenia, found them without difficulty. “Hello, boys,” he said, “How’s the boss? Where is he?” “Over at the hotel. We’ll show you the way.” “O. K. Walt a minute. I got something to do. Got change for a century?” One of them had change. Mr. Norzinsky watched the other passengers .from his train until an old woman appeared. “Here you are, ‘grandma,’ ” he said. “Here's fifty dollars. Buy your boy a present with it.” Mandeis’ henchmen were troubled at the “rube’s” open-handed-ness. “You can’t spread money around like that,” one of them warned. “It’s too conspicuous. You'll have the dicks on us.”

Famed Soldier and Author Claimed by Death Here

Capt. H. W. Mcßride Held Highest Military Honors of Two Nations. Possessor of the highest military honors of two nations, Captain Herbert W. Mcßride, 59, of 1434 Park avenue, soldier, author and soldier of fortune, died suddenly from a heart attack Friday afternoon at his home. Captain Mcßride, born in Indianapolis, the son of Judge Robert W. Mcßride of the Indiana supreme court, now dead, saw service both with the United States and Canadian armies, and fought with the Boers throughout the South African revolt. Ke-Enlisted as Private Captain Mcßride was an expert marksman and teacher of that art, and served as an officer of the Indiana national guard for many years. When the World war broke out. he became an instuctor in the famous Princess Pat regiment, and was commissioned a captain in the Canadian forces. Feeling against Captain Mcßride as an “American and outsider” developed, so he resigned his commission and re-enlisted as a private in the 155th Canadian infantry. By the time he was invalided home three years later, he had risen again to the rank of captain. The British Military Medal, highest English award for valor, was awarded Captain Mcßride in 1916 at the battle of St. Eloi in Flanders, when he captured twelve machine guns. Wounded Seven Times The French republic bestowed its highest honor, the Medaille Militaire, for Captain Mcßride's invasion of German lines and capture of a German flag, and also granted him the Croix de Guerre. Wounded seven times while with the British, army. Captain Mcßride returned to the United States

At the luxurious apartment occupied by Mandeis and his wife, Mr. Norzinskj was received with dignity and open arms. Two other guests named Gorgas and Collins were there to greet him. “Glad to meet any friend of Big Steve's,” said Mandeis jovially.,. “He used tb do a lot of fayors for us in Michigan.” “He’s one of my closest pals,” said Mr. Norzinsky. “Now, let’s get down to business. I’m not going to be in town very long.” A few preliminaries to the transfer of narcotics that would sell for about $1,000,000 were arranged and then Mr. Mandeis stood up. “Well continue this a little later,” he said. "You’ll want to rest up after your trip.” The meeting adjourned and Mr. Norzinsky went to another hotel and registered. As soon as he had gone, Collins spoke up: “Say, he's a nice fellow, and he makes a good impression, and all that, but didn’t I hear somewhere that Big Steve is missing—disappeared somehow?” Mandeis waved him aside. “Don’t be so suspicious. Anyway, Norzinsky’s never going back to Detroit. We’ll learn all he knows and then give him a big send-off, with a lot of witnesses. “Weil all see him on the train.

Only he won’t be on it when it leaves the station.

You’ve sort of hinted you wanted to meet all the boys, and they’ll be there. We’ll show’ you a good time.” Mr. Norzinsky seemed flattered, even though he had arranged to buy about SIOO,OOO worth of heroin he didn’t need. “I appreciate this, Andy,’ he said, “more than you realize. It will give me something to tell the boys back in Detroit.” “Maybe,” said Mandeis. “We’ll do our best.” On the evening of Nov. 12 there was held in a restaurant in the W'est thirties the largest gathering of members of the drug syndicate ever held in the city’s history. The occasion was programmed, “A Testimonial Dinner to Our Pal, Abe Norzinsky.” The seventy-flve guests included men and women who had wrecked thousands of lives through the sale of heroin, morphine, opium cubes and other narcotics. They controlled, among them, a business that took in more than $2,500,000 a year. They were not drug users, these well-dressed men and women. They knew too well the havoc wrought by “dope.” There was “Nick,” w'ho had organized the sailors of a transAtlantic line into a drug smuggling unit that worked like a machine. There was Mamie the Knife, so called because she bore on her face a knife scar inflicted by a girl she taught to smoke opium. There were waiters, porters and club attaches w-ho had wealthy clients and were respected. tt tt a ON the dais sat Mandeis, Collins and Gorgas, with, beside them, the popular guest of honor “Our pal, Abie Norzinsky, who’s going to be head of our new Detroit branch.” Joan Mandeis paid particular attention to the guest of honor and he seemed flattered. “Did you hear the story ” Abie asked the assemblage, “of the Chinese who gave the income tax clerk a reefer? The clerk took four puffs and put down, ‘lncome $6,000,000; no tax.’ ”

They all laughed, sipped their wine and ate their olives. An orchestra, costing SSOO for the night, played jazz. When dinner W'as over, Mandeis made a short address, outlining the syndicate’s plan for expansion over the United States and eventually throughout the w’orld. They talked, Mr. Norzinsky noted, just as if they were in a legitimate business. Their unnamed product, apparently, they considered as staple as wheat, sugar, or tobacco. Mr. Mandeis sat down after introducing Mr. Norzinsky. As Mr. Norzinsky got to his feet he whispered to Mandeis: “I got a for the boys. Call up the Chorus Girl Agency, will you, and tell ’em we’re ready for the entertainment? The number’s in the phone book.” a tt a MANDEIS was pleased at ivlr. Norzinsky’s thoughtfulness. He hurried to oblige. There was a commotion at the door before Mr. Norzinsky nad finished speaking. Mr. Norzinsky heard the noise and smiled wider than ever as he interrupted himself: Ladies and gentlemen, I have a little surprise for you. The place is surrounded by police and federal agents. Don’t try the windows; there are men on the fireescapes.” And, as the doors swung open: “I must thank you all for very pleasant evening!” The members of the syndicate were too astonished to move. As police under the command of Capt. Henry Scherb filed into the room the guests remained seated and submitted meekly to being searched. Mr. Norzinsky, revealed in his real identity as N-45, W'ent among the guests, touching the shoulders of the men and women against whom he had evidence. At the same time other raiding squads entered resorts on the east side, in Brooklyn, and in Jersey City and Newark. Before dawn twenty-seven prisoners were in jail and at storehouses on Cherry street and Water street, drugs valued at $750,000 had been seized. “Tell me one thing,” said Mandeis as he W'as being escorted from the case, “how did you tip them off when to raid?” N-45 smiled —the same amateurish smile that had earned Mandeis’ contempt a few days earlier. “You gave the signal yourself,” he replied. “We had a man at the Chorus Girl Agency, and he relayed the call. Let me thank you again for a very pleasant reception in the big city.” NEXT: The Sea Menace. AVOID UGLY PIMPLES Does a pimply f ice embarrass you? Get a package of Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets.

‘POT OF GOLD' SUIT LOST BY OLDJIOLDIER Jury Turns Down Plea of Civil War Veteran for $21,000 Treasure. By Times Special BOONVILLE, Ind., March 18. — Thomas White, 86-year-old Civil war veteran, who was with Sherman on the famous march “from Atlanta to the sea,” has lost his battle for a 521,000 "pot of gold” supposed to have been buried by his mother, Mrs. Sarah White, forty-two years ago. A jury in Warrick circuit, court, where a suit filed by White this week, found for defendants after ten minutes’ deliberation Friday night. Defendants w'ere Owen Fitzgerald. Quill White, Lee Raney and the estate of Frank Raney. White contended that the gold had been dug up by defendants and that he had not been given a share as an heir of his mother’s estate. Denying they had found any money, defendants asserted White's theory of a “pot of gold” was fiction. In support of his suit, White offered evidence that his mother had a fear of banks, and would bury even comparatively small sums of money. He said the $21,000 supposed to have been in the buried pot w'as money received from sale of a farm w'hich had been part of his father’s estate. The suit originally W'as filed in Pike county and w'as brought here for trial on a change of venue. FIRM RELIEF PLAN IS ATTACKED HERE Grain Dealers and Millers Assail Policy. President Rooseevelt's farm reliel plan merely means further interference with the law's of supply and demand and price fixing which always is unsuccessful, in the opinion of grain dealers and millers here. “We are opposed to any legislation which seeks to regulate the immutable laws of supply and demand,” said William H. How’ard, secretary of the Indianapolis Board of Trade, speaking for that group. “There has been too much government in business. The previous farm relief setup w'as designed by the Republican administration to help the farmer, and he is no better off than before. Nothing will help the farmer except to let him run his own business, as he used to do.” I. E. Woodard, general manager of the Acme-Evans Company, millers, said that governmental price fixing never has been successful. ‘Y’ SWIMMERS ON TRIP Jim Clark Takes Eleven Paddlers to St. Louis Today.

ARGUMENTS ON GARNISHEE LAW ACTION HEARD Verdict Is Held Up by Two Judges: Fight Centers Over Judgment. Sitting jointly, Municipal Judges Dan V. White and Thomas E. Garvin today took under advisement action on two motions seeking to vacate garnishee Judgments. The judges declared the 1929 Indiana garnishee law unconstitutional a week ago. Arguments were on motions in the case of the Indianapolis Morris Plan Company against Vernic Walls, Indianapolis Railways employe and father of four children. A garnishee judgment for $251 was obtained against him in 1929. Order for execution on the judgment was issued last Oct. 13. and since then Walls iaas had deducted from his wages the sum of $60.56 to apply on the Judgment. The Morris company had a motion asking that a restraining order obtained by Walls halting further deduction from his wages be dissolved. Wall had a motion to vacate the judgment, paving the way for restoration of the money paid in, thus far. L. Roy Zass, the Morris company attorney, asserted Walls was not entitled to relief by a restraining order, because he had delayed action too long. Zass pointed out that the execution order w'as issued six months ago. Upholding legality of the restraining order, Thomas McNulty, counsel for Walls, declared it was issued for the purpose of preventing action under an invalid law. After taking ruling under advisement. the judges asked counsel to submit a brief of authorities upon which they rely. No announcement was made as to when a ruling will be made. If Walls wins, it is believed orders to vacate judgments in about 200 garnishee cases, involving $50,000 or more, will be sought. ‘UKELELE IKE* IS BROKE Debts Are Listed at $68,207 hi Bankruptcy Schedule.
