CHURCH BACKS OXNAM STAND ON R. 0. T. C. M. E. Conference Votes Support in Clash Over Corps. Defending G Bromley Oxnam, president of De Pauw university, charged by the war department with influencing the decline of the R O. T. C. corps enrollment there, the Indianapolis district conference of the Methodist Episcopal church Tuesday declared its confidence in the institution's head The cor.ferenco challenged "the inference that young manhood can be served best by encouraging armed defense." Previously, the general church conference had gone on record to request governments to withdraw all support for military training in civil institutions. De Pauw is one of the forty-four colleges and universities under the Methodist church. Co-Operation Is Asked The resolution drawn up by the Indianapolis conference requested that "the leaders of our nation and the press of our land co-operate to the fullest extent in carrying out the letter and spirit of the Kellogg pact, and declares its conviction to be that the highest patriotism no longer is that which centers about military defense.” Roy O. West, Chicago attorney and former secretary of the interior, president of the joint board of trustees and visitors of the university, stated Tuesday that the policy of the university toward R. O. T. C. was under the jurisdiction of the three Indiana conferences of the Methodist church. Training Made Optional The resolution of the Indianapolis conference follows charges by Major-General George Van Horn Moseley, commander of the fifth corps area, that investigation revealed that Oxnam largely was responsible for lack of interest in the corps. One of the first acts of Oxnam after taking office as president in 1928 was to make military training optional instead of compulsory- Sliding from 549 enrollmeru in 1928- 29 the registration in the corps this fall is 106.

What to Do? Soda Clerk Paid $13.50 Weekly Has Dozen Dependents;

By United Press NEW ORLEANS. Sept. 20Pete Papas, young soda fountain clerk, offers this nut for General Johnson to crack. Salary $13.50 a week. Dependents, ten younger brothers and sisters; a wife and a mother, both expecting babies shortly. His father died Sunday night. "I didn't have the heart to go to Pop’s funeral,” he said.

‘WALKATHON’ IS ON; CHIEF BOILS Restraining Order Prevents Morrissey From Halting Fifty Couples. Round and round went fifty “walkathon” copules at the state fairground today in a shuffling walk, and round and round went Police Chief Mike Morrissey in a legal goosestep. “What can I do?” Morrissey asked, bewildered by the intervention of Superior Judge Clarence E. Weir in restraining police from interfering. It was late Tuesday night when the voice of Jacob Weiss, attorney, started the “walkers” off on their long trek. The couples were billed to appear at the Manufacturers’ building at 8 p. m., but Morrissey warned Leo A. Seltzer, “walkathon” manager, that the whole crowd would be arrested if the affair started. Morrisey based his authority for calling off the event on an ordinance enacted some time ago concerning marathon dances. Seltzer insisted that the event was a walking contest and not a dance, but he repected the chief’s wishes and turned the crowd away until Weiss could act. Armed with the restraining order, Weiss gave the word to go and the event, which the managers insist cost them SIO,OOO to stage, was off to a delayed start preceded by a radio broadcast. The walkers will be fed seven times daily and get a shower bath. They will walk fortyfive minutes and rest seven, according to the present schedule. "I’m going to see Herb Spencer, city attorney, today,” Morrissey announced today, “and if necessary I’ll move to call a special meeting of the city council and advocate the passing of a special ordinance.” Dog Bites Boy on Finger Leo Gentry, 11, living at the General Protestant Orphans’ home, 1404 South State avenue, was treated at city hospital today after being bitten on the finger by a dog.

SIX SUSPECTS HELD IH FAKE MONCT DRIVE Filling Station Employe's Memory of License Number Aids. An alert filling station attendant helped police to uncover an alleged band of counterfeiters and effect the arrest of three women and three men in a raid late Tuesday night. Shortly before midnight, a coupe containing two men and a girl, appeared at the filling station at 3540 West Washington street and gasoline and oil was ordered. The driver tendered a $lO bill to the attendant, Gus Bates, 1438 Pennsylvania street. When they had gone. Bates looked closely at the bill and found that it had been raised from $2 to $lO. But, fortunately, he remembered the license number of the coupe. Police checked the license number and with Bates went to an apartment at 120 West Twelfth street, where Bates identified Clarence Hamilton of that address as the man who had given him the counterfeit bill. Police also arrested James Collins and Ethel Chumley of the West Twelfth street address, and Marge La Rue, 1045 North La Salle street. All were charged with vagrancy and held in high bond. While officers were searching the flat, Ralph Graves, who told police that he also lived there, came in and was arrested when police alleged they found a key maker’s gauge and a set of burglar took in his car parked in front of the house. Police also arrested Myrtle Hammond, who visited the apartment shortly after the arrival of Groves. Both were charged with vagrancy and held under high bond. In Groves’ room in the apartment, police say they found stamps, dies and a set of Ohio auto licenses.

A young man who visited the restaurant Monday night, looked into the cash register when Miss Goldman made change for him after a purchase. “Is there much money there?” he asked. When she replied there was but little cash in the drawer, the patron promised: "All right, I won’t hold you up tonight, but I’ll see you Tuesday night.” He failed to return.
