BRITISH WARN . WORLD POWERS Threaten Economic Warfare on Nations Treating Empire Unfairly. BY HARRY FLORY United Tress Staff Correspondent ' LONDON, June 2.—Neville Chamberlain, chancellor of the exchequer, in his last parliamentary speech before the world economic conference, sounded a warning today that Great Britain will wage unflinching economic warfare on nations that treat her unfairly. Under fire by the Labor party, which demanded a statement of policy on payment of the $75,950,000 war debt installment June 15, Chamberlain refused to comply for fear of prejudicing negotiations with the United States. He expressed confidence that the United States was aware of Britain’s difficulties, and would do nothing either to emphasize them or to prejudice success of the world economic conference. Today’s session of the house of commons was its last until June 16, and opposition members were determined to demand information on the government’s intentions during the next two weeks, which may become historic.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

CITY ‘BOOKIES’ SHY AT REPEAL VOTEJBETTING Drys Conceded No Chance to Win in Prohibition Ballot Tuesday. Dry are conceded such a slight chance of carrying Marion county in the prohibition repeal election Tuesday that Indianapolis bookmakers won't even "make you a proposition." These gentleman always seize upon any controversial question of general interest as an to indulge in a little speculation,' but so few of the sporting-minded think the drys have a chance that it’s “no contest” as far as betting is concerned. “Os course,” said one, “if you want a little personal 'play,’ I’ll be glad to lay you 8 to 7 myself and you take the long end, but there isn’t 2ny general betting as there usually is on any kind of an election. Expects Big Majority “I wouldn’t be surprised to see Marion county go for repeal by a 3-to-l majority. “And don’t think all the church people are going to vote dry. They may say so, but a lot of them are going to jump the fence’ when they go to the polls. “I met a woman on the bus the other night going home—a fine, respectable woman who I happen to know is a regular churchgoer, because she lives in my neighborhood. She’s been to a party and I know she’d had a couple of drinks, because I smelled them. “The size of the vote? Well, I think you’d be about right in figuring from 60,000 to 70,000. I don’t think it’ll be a very large vote, because a lot of people are not as steamed up about it as you might think.” Parallels York’s Figures His estimate of the probable total vote is approximately that of L. E. York, superintendent of the Indiana Anti-Saloon League. York estimates the probable state vote at 35 or 40 per cent of the normal vote. Last fall, approximately 205,000 votes were cast in Marion county for secretary of state. Total vote estimate of William Stokes, executive director of the United Repeal Council of Indiana, is slightly more liberal, as Stokes believes the outpouring may be as large as 50 per cent. Meetings Announced Announcement of meetings of election inspectors at room 32, the courthouse, was made today by Glenn B. Ralston, county clerk. The inspectors will be instructed in three groups. Meeting times are: 2p. m. Saturday—Wards 1,2, 5,8, 9 and 15 and Center, Warren and Franklin townships. 3 p. m. Saturday—Wards 7, 13 and 14 and Washington, Wayne and Pike townships. 2p. m. Sunday—Wards, 3,4, 6, 10. 11 and 12 and Perry, Decatur and Lawrence townships. Ballots were sent to each of the precincts today and officials estimated only about 50 per cent of the normal vote will be recorded. Crawford Helps Drys While the repeal organizations continue their campaign of organization and shun high-powered oratory, the dry strategy still is that of using what Democrats of prominence they can obtain to speak for the dry cause. Earl Crawford, speaker of the Democratic house of representatives, is closing a tour of the state. He will speak in the southern part of the state Saturday and Sunday and stage a windup rally in Indianapolis Monday night. Bishop James Cannon Jr. and Bishop Edgar Blake, the Methodist prelates, will be joined over the j week-end by F. Scott Mcßride, genI eral superintendent of the Anti- ; Saloon League. 25 BOYS CHOSEN FOR TUBERCULOSIS CAMP First Period to Open June 27; Girls to Enter Five Weeks Later. Twenty-eight boys have been chosen and given necessary medical examination in preparation for the opening of the first period of the Marion County Tuberculosis Association’s nutrition camp near Bridgeport, June 27.
