BANDIT GANG SLUGS TWO IN SBS STICKUP -Trader’s Point Tavern Is Invaded by Mob of Five Gunmen. Five noisy, cursing bandits, fired one shot and slugged two men early today m a holdup of the Old Church Tavern, a barbecue and beer stand at Trader’s Point, and escaped with between $65 and $75. A shot was fired at the feet of Elmer Glidewell, one of the proprietors, because he was slow in opening a safe. He also was struck twice on the head with the butt of a revolver. Stanley Harding, 29, night attendant of a filling station operated in connection with the place, also was struck with a revolver. Glidewell; his father, Gfant Glidewell, 70, and Harding, were alone on the first floor when the bandits arrived. Upstairs, a partner of the younger Glidewell, Ed Rosemeyer, Mrs. Rosemeyer and Miss Alma Marshall were sleeping. Three Enter Tavern Three men entered leaving two companions in an automobile at the gasoline pump. A large man, apparently the leader of the gang, remarked to the younger Glidw'ell: “We can get beer here, can't we?" Told that beer was sold, the man inquired: “Anything stronger?” “No, we handle nothing but beer,” Glidewell replied. “Is that so? i'll just take a look,” the man said, as he walked around the end of the bar and drew a large revolver. Forced to Open Register Glidewell was compelled to open the cash register. In the meantime, the two men left in the automobile in the tank of which Harding placed eight gallons of gasoline, were engaging him in a conversation. “Where’s the other fellow?” one of the men asked, apparently referring to Rosemeyer. “He’s upstairs asleep,” Harding replied. “Let him stick his head out and I’ll pop him,” the bandit replied, shoving a revolver against Harding’s side and compelling him to go inside. Telephone Is Torn Down The elder Glidewell and Harding were forced to go into the kitchen and stand with their faces to the wall, while Elmer Glidewell was taken into a small room and forced to open the safe. A telephone was torn down, Awakened by the curses of the robbers. Rosemeyer reached the lower floor just as they were leaving, and arming himself with a shotgun gave chase in his automobile. He lost the trail at'Thirtieth street and Road 52 as the robbers continued driving into Indianapolis. The bandits appeared familiar with the place, and arrived shortly after seven truck drivers had left after having lunch.

U. S. Supports Claim Winters Grow Milder

Rising Average Temperature Indicated in Study of Records. By Science Service WASHINGTON. Oct. 12.—Maybe Grandpa was right, after aii. about winters being so much colder and longer when he was a boy. Recent statistical studies by J. B. Kincer of the Unied States weather bureau lend support to the claim that winters have been growing milder during the last fifty or sixty years. Spring and fall weather also has averaged warmer during the same time. “When we examine the Winter temperature data for Washington, for example.” said Mr. Kincer, “it is found that for the last twentyone winters, eighteen have been warmer than normal; that every one of the last thirteen have been mild, and that the warmest winter of record, going back considerably more than a century, was that of 1931-32. This is in marked contrast with ‘grand-day’s day,’ say, for the nineteen winters from that of 185455 to 1872-73. fourteen of which were colder than normal, with 1855-56 the coldest in more than one hundred years. "The record for New Haven, Conn., may be cited as another example. Here every one of the lost ten winters have averaged warmer than normal; also, eighteen of the last twenty-one. and thirty-three of the last forty-five. This record, by the way, goes back to near the close of the Revolutionary war. Farther west, we -pick up. at random, the St. Louis record, which shows thirteen of the last fifteen winters with above normal temperature. These are typical of others over the central and northern portions of the United States east of the Rocky mountains.” In St. Paul. Minn.. Mr. Kincer continued, more than 75 per cept of the fall seasons for the last fortythree years have been relatively warm, in contrast to the thirty-

GLASS BEMDANS NRAJPROGRAM Virginia Senator Planning to Fire Away on Law Shortly. By United Press WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.—Storm warnings were hoisted in the path of the blue eagle today. * Senator Carter Glass (Dem., Va.), is preparing to challenge the NRA’s constitutionality when Congress meets. This development came on the heels of a declaration before the A. F. of L. by Senator Robert F. Wagner (Dem., N. Y.), one of the authors of the recovery act, who said that the NRA program had to be made stronger to bring real recovery. Senator Wagner said that wages would have to be made higher and hours shorter than they are in existing codes to absorb the idle which still number more than 10,000,000, according to his estimate. Word of the forthcoming opposition of Senator Glass developed when inquiry was made concerning the absence of the blue eagle from his two newspapers at Lynchburg, Va. “My papers are not flying the blue eagle,” Mr. Glass said. “My newspapers, seven months before the NRA was proposed, went on a five-day week basis, and my wage scale is much above the requirement of NRA. “As I understand it, no newspaper code has been adopted yet. I decline to sign any blank agreement to let any one run my business. When the code is adopted, I will consider then whether to observe it or not.” 10-CENT PARIS OPERA Performances Given at Open Air Theater in Tuilleries.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

He was in a hospital at Bryn Mawr, Pa., fourteen weeks, during practically all of which time his mother, a local school board member, was wdth him. Mrs. Miller brought him to Indianapolis the latter part of March, when X-Rays showed that the fractured vertebrae were healing. o n WHILE the youth still is forced to wear a surgical collar, and has not regained complete normal use of his left arm, physicians now say that by the end of the year he will have recovered completely from his injuries. Dr. Miller, father of the boy, rushed to the hospital at Bryn Maw'r at the time of the accident, using train, automobile and airplane in order to make the trip in short time. Mrs. Miller left Indianapolis shortly before Christmas last year, to spend the holiday with her son in the hospital. Dr. Herbert W. Taylor, college physician, announced shortly after the accident that there was but slight chance that the boy would live. At that time a delicate operation was considered, in an effort to save his life. FINDS 2-HEADED SNAKE Oregon Man Names Unusual Pet for Triangular Shape.

ROOSEVELT IS AUTOCRAT, SAYS BRITISHOFFICER Cabinet Member Expresses Doubt NRA Will Be Success. By United Press LONDON, Oct. 12—Walter Runciman, member of the British cabinet, was revealed today as an open skeptic of the success of President Rdbsvelt’s NRA program. One of tne greatest industrialists in England, Runciman, despite his official post, attacked the American NRA program in a speech at St. Ives, and called President Roosevelt “the greatest autocrat in the world.” Perhaps because he was speaking in his home constituency as a member of the house of commons, Runciman was very frank. “President Roosevelt, the greatest autocrat in the world, has chosen to make a huge experiment,” he continued. “It is conceivable that the experiment would be succcessful if the United Sttes were a little world all its own. “But it- also is involved in foreign trade, in which it can not compete with the rest of the world.” Referring to the refusal of .the United States to stabilize the dollar, he said: “America could " have made a considerable contribution to world financial confidence by stabilizing. I say without hesitation that before long United States authorities will be anxious to have the dollar as stable as the pound sterling.” C. C. C.
