G. fl. P. FIGHT ON INFLATION HELD FOTILE Vote May Be Held Up Until Wednesday, but Passage Is Certain. (Continued From Pan** One) Hoover in California. He and his G. O. P. colleagues have at stake a greater prize than the Thomas amendment alone. They see their conservative, Republican structure crumbling if the Roosevelt moves succeed domestically, and are incorporated in international agreements. In short, they are pitting the traditionalism of Hoover’s “rugged individualism' 1 against the radicalism of Roosevelt's "new deal.” The G. O. P. protest took definite form in a statement issued through the Republican national committee by Senators Reed and Frederic Walcott, ranking minority member on the banking and currency committee, by Minority Leader Snell of the house, and by Representative Robert Luce of Massachusetts, the ranking Republican member of the house banking and currency committee. It was the severest blast, delivered by the minority against any administration policy. While expressing a willingness to accept the proposal for federal reserve purchase of federal bonds, the statement attacked the other features of the amendment as “inflation on a grand scale,” and also “unconstitutional.” They branded the contemplated issue of United States notes as “sayso money,” and predicted ‘the measure would unsettle confidence in the whole monetary system, delaying rather than promoting recovery.

STATE DOCTORS NOW ABLE TO HANDLE WHISKY Pestering by Hard Drinkers Not Expected, Says Medics’ Aid. The bill removing restrictions on physicians’ liquor prescriptions, signed by President Roosevelt recently, is not expected to cause local physicians to be pestered by thirsty patients. Indianapolis doctors have found people here content with 3.2 beer for strictly beverage purposes, according to Thomas H. Hendricks, secretary of the Indiana State Medical Association. The 4,076 doctors in the state now are entitled to purchase twelve pints of spirituous liquor .to administer to patients. Permission for the purchase of liquor by the physicians came after a long fight on the part of the medical association and individual doctors. Federal sanction for the physicians, dentists and hospitals of Indiana to obtain a dozen pints each annually came Friday from E. C. Yellowley, supervisor of permits at Chicago. Official permission here had been help up by an opinion of Philip Lutz Jr.. Indiana attorney-general, who said that the new state liquor control act prevented such ownership of spirits. Paul Fry. excise director, ruled that the control act does not bar this use of liquor providing physicians, dentists and hospitals file their order blanks with the state and pay the tax of 25 cents a pint.

New Gunmen Make Piker of Jesse James
BY TOM MAHONEY X'nited Press Staff Correspondent Kansas city, mo, April 22. —Jesse James was a piker compared with the 1933 model bandit in both loot and bloodshed, said Merle A. Gill, veteran midwest criminologist, here today. Gill believes the present-day bad man's increase in armament and decline in courage makes him about ten times as dangerous as his prototype fifty years ago. "Jesse James killed few, if any. men," said Gill. “The famous Henry Starr killed only one. They were cool, nervy frontier types, who didn't believe in useless killing.

if 1 V mM §
John Rice John Rice, 32, of 3910 Ruckle street, former basketball and baseball star at Manual high school and on semi-pro teams in the city, died on Friday in St. Vincent’s hospial, after an illness of a week. Death followed an operation for appendicitis early this week. Mr. Rice started his basketball career in 1917 at Manual high school, and in 1919, his last year at school, aided the Manual team in winning the local sectional. The team was defeated in the state finals tourney. " Mr. Rice starred at baseball durand after his high school years. In 1918, as a member of the D. A. C., semi-pro team, he helped win the city baseball championship. Following his graduation from Manual, he starred with the South Side Turners and Em-Roe semi-pro basketball teams, two of the outstanding local aggregations of the mid-west at that time. He later served as coach of the boys’ team of Sacred Heart school for two years. He also was a well known bowler in the city, topping the Community and St. Joan of Arc leagues with consistent ‘’2oo’’ averages. He also bowled with the Capital City Traveling league. Funeral services will be held at 10 Monday in the St. Joan of Arc Catholic church. Burial will be in Holy Cross cemetery. Survivors are the widow. Mrs. Ruth Rice, tw'o children, Charlotte and John Robert, his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John F. Rice, and a sister. Dorothy Rice.
THE James, Youngers, Daltons and others usually were armed with single action revolvers. The modern bandit uses automatics with twenty-five to fifty-shot magazines. More than a few use Thompson machine gups which spit .45 caliber bullets at 850 per minute. "Many are cowardly, jelly-bean, needle-using types who lose their nerve if anything goes wrong. The old timers had some regard for human life. The current variety will kill men, women and children to escape." Bandits in recent years have obtained in single jobs more loot that' Jesse James garnered in all his life, according to Gill's files.

REPORT FILED BY RECEIVER OF CITYTRUST Final Accounting Made 24 Hours Before Deadline Set by Cox. Final report of the receivership of Curtis Rottger, formerly in charge of liquidation of the defunct City Trust Company, was filed in circuit court Friday, twenty-four hours before the deadline established by Judge Earl R. Cox. Cox ordered the report held, sub- t ject to audit, and said that Rottger’s resignation also would be subject to approval of the final report. According to the balance sheet contained in the report, which comprised several hundred pages, assets are listed at $1,005,598.47 against liabilities of $2,000,787.79. The appraisal of assets is from Rottger’s figures, which have not been accepted by Oren S. Hack, who was appointed to handle the bank’s affairs after Rottger submitted his resignation. Reappraisal of assets has been ordered by Cox on Hack’s petition and is expected to be submitted within the next week. In the liabilities, amount due depositors is given at $1,626,012.70, approximately $626,000 more than the purported appraisal value. Cash and funds due from banks is given at $62,918.78, all of which is on deposit in local institutions. A net operating loss of the receivership under Rottger for the period Nov. 13,1930, to March 9,1933, is shown at $15,626.64, to which is added $8,202.72 expenses prior to Rottger’s appointment. Expenses of the receivership are given at $92,946.48. Heavy depreciation of the assets listed at the beginning of the receivership is shown in items of personal and collateral loans, mortgages and bonds, and stocks and bonds. Personal loans fell from a book value in 1930 of $438,636.30 to Rottger's appraisal figures of $95,203.99. Bonds and stocks originally valued at $531,684.46 are appraised now at $266,979.23. Mortgage loans and bonds dropped in value from $465,572.63 to $124,754.99. Rottger cited in the report that recent appellate court decisions made it possible to reduce by approximately $500,000 a number of “o-called trust claims to the rank of general creditors,” which move, he said, “ultimately should Insure general depositors of a substantial dividend on their claims.” DRINKING SHOWS BIG DECLINE IN BRITAIN Heavy Taxation Is Blamed for Slump in Consumption Last Tear.
