BIG BUSINESS DIVIDED OVER RECOVERY BILL 'Unduly Drastic/ Say Some Leaders; ‘Encouraging/ Say Others. BY RUTH FINNEY Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, May 30.—Uncle Sam—l 933 edition—wears the aspect of a kind patron to part of industry, and to another part seems to be a threatening tyrant as the national recovery bill moves toward passage in the senate. This Jekyll-Hyde interpretation by business men of the purposes and, probable results of the recovery bill i confronted the senate finance committee today as it prepared to wind up hearings Wednesday. James Emery, representative of the National Association of Manufacturers, told the committee the bill in its present form is "unduly drastic,” and “represents the power of complete confiscation of every! enterprise—the power of commercial exile and destruction.” Difference in Views While he was testifying there arrived in Washington excerpts from an article in the Magazine of Wall, Street, in which it is suggested | apropos of the recovery bill that perhaps the “forgotten man” actually was the business man. The new measure “alters the attitude of government from an inimical to a paternistic or at least a helpful one,” the article said. “The practical appraisal of it . . . would appear to be that it will be stimulative directly to business in a number of depressed industries, reassuring to all, and enormously encouraging to the public morale.” Frankly, the article points out, “the bill may be regarded as the first step of the government toward economic planning. Under its broad provisions the entire output of every industrial group, and so of industry as a whole, may be restricted and otherwise regulated.” Voices Objection to Bill Emery told the committee that “while employers are assured of no protection in the discharge of their onerous obligations but must place their trust wholly in the administrator, it is sought to twist the pending legislation into a distinct effort to mold the employment relations of the United States into a single form, to the manifest advantage of a particular form of organization.” “That's your real objection to the bill, Isn’t it?” said Senator Robert Wagner (Dem., N. Y.). “You think labor is getting too much under this bill. You don’t think they should have the right to organize as they please.” RUTH OWENS SOLVES COURT DRESS RIDDLE Wears Impressive Evening Gown to Conform to Tradition. By United Press COPENHAGEN, May 30.—Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen, new United States minister to Denmark, had a problem in attire today. She was received in official audience by King Christian X, and had | to wear the official costure of a! chief of the legation. The United j States, unlike other countries, has j no uniform and gold braid for its j diplomats abroad, and a minister I and his tor heri staff traditionally j wear formal evening dres to official i functions, such as presenting ere- j dentials, even if it is in the morning. ; Mrs. Owen was received by the king at noon—and she conformed by j wearing an impressive evening gown. BLAST MANGLES HAND Float Ball of Electric Ice Box Explodes, Injuring Light Cos. Employe. William Gomatz, 35, of 1734 North Meridian street, Indianapolis Power and Light .Company employe, suffered a mangled hand Monday when the float ball of an electric ice box he was repairing exploded.

Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M’KENNEY, Secretary American Bridge League AGAIN let me impress upon you the importance of the “safety of the hand." Find the safety of the hand first and then start your bidding tactics, always knowing that you can come back to the safety of the hand. Here is an interesting hand played in the recent Ohio state championship at Cleveland: South and West passed. While North has four high card tricks he must not open with one no trump in the constructive one over one system of bidding, as he holds a weak doubleton. Also, his hand does not contain any tenace positions, therefore he must resort to one of his four-card suits. I prefer to open the hand with one club, then, if the partner can make a one over one response, you can go to no trump, while if he happens to bid spades, you know that you are going to have a good play for a game at spades. Holding East’s hand, I would make a negative double. However, at the tournament, most players overcalled with one heart, in which case South now made a constructive bid of two clubs. Immediately, North and South knew the safety of the hand—they have agreed on clubs. They know that they cannot get into much trouble playing the hand at that suit. * u WITH this information, when West passed, North u'as now justified in showing his spade suit by bidding two spades. This was a

Name Two Appraisers to Study State Savings Assets

Grand Jury Probe of Bank’s Affairs Is Continued. Valuation of assets of the defunct State Savings and Trust Company, under present conditions, will be determined by two appraisers named Monday by Circuit Judge Earl R. Cox on petition of Homer Elliott, receiver. George W. Snyder of the Security Trust Company and N. M. Dunbar of the Union Trust Company, were named by Cox to act as appraisers. Elliott pointed out in his petition that present valuation of the trust assets is necessary in view r of a suit pending in superior court two seeking to collect on stockholders’ liability. Meanwhile, the grand jury investigation of the bank's affairs continued with Mrs. Ida Broo, accountant, appearing in person to testify regarding her findings which precipitated the probe. AUTO SHOW DATES SET 1934 National Event Will Open in New York, Jan 6.

The date and place of the Chicago show will be decided upon at the annual meeting of the car manufacturers in New York City next month.

constructive bid and showed partner a very good hand. But as the spade suit had been bid secondary, partner should know that It is only a four-card suit. East would now bid three hearts, South, having four spades, immediately gives partner this information by bidding three spades. Regardless of whether West bids four hearts or not, North now knows that his partner holds at least four spades and club support. With this information, he knows there is a good chance of making game, and therefore bids four spades, knowing that if he is doubled he can go to five clubs. However, the bid is not doubled and four spades is a lay-down. North and South have discovered a suit at which they could play for game, but not until they first established the “safety of the hand.” (Copyright, -1933. by NEA Service. Inc.)

Attention of the grand jury is centering on a $200,000 book keeping error” in statements alleged to have been submitted by bank officials to the state banking department. William J.

DUEL TO DEATH IS FOUGHT OVER LOVEJOF WIFE Enraged Husband ‘Shoots It Out’ With 'Other Man’ in Case. By United Press LEIPSIC, 0., May 30.—An enraged husband and the man he acI cused of stealing his wife’s love stood at ten paces Monday night and fought a gun duel that ended only when the second man was dead and the husband dying. Andrew Goldsberry, 24, the husband, started the shooting, police said, when he found David Gregor, 31, in the house where his estranged Vise was living. The men emptied their guns at each other, filling the weapons and emptying them again before Gregor fell mortally wounded down a flight of stairs, fired one last shot at Goldsberry, and slumped to the floor, dead. Goldsberry’s wife Octavia, 20-year-old mother of three children, reconstructed the scene that led to the shooting in her story to police. Separated for Five Months She and her husband had been separated for five months, she said, and she had been living with his mother, Mrs. John Mason. Her husband, she added, had made several attempts to effect a reconciliation since filing suit for divorce. Late Monday, Mrs. Goldsberry told police, her husband came to the home, asked her to come and live with him again, and became enraged when he refused. Rushing upstairs, he came face to face with Gregor, a former fellow workman. Without a word, both men drew revolvers and opened fire. Reload' Several Times When his first round of bullets was exhausted, Gregor, wounded several times, reloaded his gun. GoldSberry did likewise. Suddenly Gregor slumped at the

head of the stairs and rolled to the bottom. Regaining his feet, he fired one last shot at Goldsberry, staggered out on the porch, and fell dead. Goldsberry, police said, was struck by only one bullet, believed to have been the last shot fired by Gregor. Without a word to his young wife, who had been huddled in the corner during the shooting, her infant child hugged to her breast, Goldsberry walked outside and collapsed. He was taken dying to a hospital at Lima.

CREDITS DEPRESSION WITH SAVING MINDS ‘World Neurosis” Blamed on Boom Days by Professor, By Vnitrd Press HOBOKEN, N. J., May 30.—Tire world economic depression probably halted the development of a “world neurosis,” which had its origin in the fast living of the 1920’5, Prof. C. U. Ariens-Kappers, director of the Central Institute for Brain Research at Amsterdam, said on his arrival here Monday. Hospitals throughout the world, he declared, are inhabited by people who developed mental ailments during the boom era. In his opinion, people were approaching the breaking point when the depression came. “The depression will have rendered a great service,” he added, “if people turn back to simplicity and do not ask so many favors of life.”

RECOVERY BILL HELD BLOW TO CHIUHABOR Miss Perkins Says ‘Baby’ Competition With Adults Is Unfair. BY MAX STERN Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, May 30.—Child labor opponents look to the pending administration recovery act to do what sixteen years of battling have failed to accomplish. They expect it to abolish the employment of children for the next two years. By that time they hope to secure ratification of the child labor amendment. According to Miss Frances Perkins, secretary of labor, child labor conies under the “unfair practice” clause in the pending measure. It is her own as well as union labor's first determination to take from the mines, mills and sweatshops the 2,000.000 children estimated to be at work there. “There is no more unfair practice than the employment of child workers in competition with adults,” Miss Perkins said.
