—Let’s Go Fishing—
WARDEN FIGHTS ILLEGAL FISHING AT TWO LAKES Noah Eaton Is Lauded for Enforcement in North Part of State. BY LEFTY LEE Times Fishinx F.dilor Warden Noah Eaton certainly has been on the job at the lakes near Warsaw and some of the fish hogs of that part of the country are finding out that illegal fishing does not pay with him on the job. His report of Oct. 11 tells of a 200-hook outline that he confiscated from Pike lake. Harvey Nine and Byron Hire were taking fish from this set at the time and they later were fined the limit on their pleas of guilty. But this outline was merely a small affair beside the one that this same warden, with the help of Wardens Marrs and Smith, took the following week from Palestine lake. The wardens discovered the line and then laid out all night waiting for the guilty ones to come and run it. Early in the morning Harry and Frank Daugherty and Charles Hale, a full-blooded Indian, appeared and were taken in the act. The line had 1.400 blue gill hooks attached, and ran back and forth across the lake three times. A total of 700 fish, including bass, blue gill, red eye and catfish were on the hooks, and they were all dead with the exception of the catfish. These men have been selling fish around Rochester for years, and sportsmen in that part of the state certainly are elated over this arrest which means that one of the worst gangs of offenders is broken up. Russ Clark of Frankfort, a real fisherman and also a real sportsman, took a four-pound ten-ounce large mouth bass from Sugar creek at Thorntown and then donated it to the state hatchery for breeding purposes. This is a welcome contrast. Here is a story that the old timers will relish as it will bring back memories of a trio of fishermen who were the original Izaak Waltons of Indianapolis. The three fishermen i named in the story have all departed but the victim of their ■ humor, the Rev. George Henninger, pastor of the Edwin Ray M. E. church at that lime, still tells it as his best fish story. Ed Phipps, William Nackenhorst and George Hedrick always fished together and were regarded by all as the best when it came to bringing back the wily bass. Thear hangout was Engine House 3 down on the southj side. Mr. Henninger, also an ardent fisherman, would drop in and listen to these boys relate their experiences along the different streams. On a trip west the pastor had some rare sport in one of the mountain streams and, upon his return, dropped in on the boys and told them that he thought he could tell the best fish story and stick to the truth. Then he related that he caught mountain trout just as fast ; as he could toss in a line in the, western country and dared these boys to equal that. Finally Mr. Phipps started in and told how he caught a bass and when he dressed it found a meadowlark inside. Mr. Nackenhorst then spoke up and said: “Yes, that is right as I was there when he caught it.” Mr. Hedrick then thought it was time for him to help out and chimed in with, “Yes, and I also was there.” A1 Reed, 1431 West Twenty-sixth street, and Grover Wadle of New Augusta, had a wonderful time on their trip to Ghost lake, Boulder Lodge, Wis.. landing in addition to all the northern pike they wanted, a twelve and fourteen-pound musky. The hunting season also opened while they were there and they brought down three ducks and a coon. The two Bills. Murphy and Faust, tried their luck on Mutton creek near Seymour last Sunday and came back in a short while with a mess of blue gill, catfish and an eel. These two boys are in their glory when they can get out along a small creek with a pole and can of worms, ] even if sunnies are the only fish that j bite. And here we have another pair of j Bills who are just starting out to try | their luck. This time it is Shine j and Branson of the Indianapolis , Power and Light Company. Some years back Billy Shine had loads of sport on Raccoon creek, near New Ross, and this is the spot they are going to try today. The boys at the Riterside hatchery are busy finishing up on all of the fish they have on hand and it is thought that the stock will be disposed of by Nov. 1. At that time Billy Bordenkecher, a veteran of many years in the conservation department. will retire to his small farm near the Brown county line south of Columbus. ‘•Hello! Yes, this is Lefty. No. I don't know where they are hitting, although I did take two nice ones from Eagle creek the other day. Well, how about Mill creek? Fine, when they are hitting. Have you oeen to Big Walnut lately? No.” And so it goes, you can tell the boys about good fishing close to home, but the spirit of adventure is in every fishing trip and they want to travel.

Views Given on Soldiers’ Pay
The Times today prints several letters received from readers on the soldiers' pay situation. They follow
Bv Charles R. France. I would like a word in answer to j H. R.'s statement in regard to the; equality of pay received during the war for civilians and for soldiers. I I am here to tell you that H. R. is right and I am taking a stand that the civilian had the best of it all the way around. I don’t suppose this will be printed because Mr. Talcott Powell as editor may have it thrown out because it does not conform with his view's i on the soldiers’ bonus, as he ex-1 pressed his stand several months j ago and he was against it “tooth I and toe nail.” Mr. Powell says that the average wage w r as under $4 a day. He is wrong, as almost any woman who! was working at that time received S4 a day or more and it is a cinch j the men made mora than that. Mr. Powell also states that the l soldier had his $1 a day clear. It j is very plain that Mr. Powell did j not serve in the war, or else he j stayed in the SOS, because if he ; had been on the front, he would j know that we didn’t have it as soft' as he would like people to believe. j The clothes we wore mostly were j ones we took off dead comrades, the j coffee so thin you could see through) it two feet deep, and no sugar half! the time, and the milk in my coffee would have scared me to death. Slum? Yes, and for days nothing else but slum. Slum would not be so bad if we could have got enough of it but never enough. Bread that had been baked a month or so in advance—j no wonder they examined our teeth | so often. Sleeping in mud shoe-top j deep, walking in the same mud, j eating in it, bespattered with it | from head to foot, seeing nothing but mud for months on end, and winter? Did the soldiers have a nice warm fire to come to after hiking in weather way below zero all day? i No! We had to go to bed at 5 or 6 i o'clock to get warm. Did we have | a nice warm room to go into to i eat our meals? No! We had to sit down in snow two feet deep and! eat our chow. If Mr. Powell thinks we were get- i ting something for nothing, he had j better change his mind and get J some facts. I am not speaking for myself (as I volunteered for it) but for the boys that had to go, but I was there. Did a civilian have to go out and dig ditches in a downpour of rain or a heavy snow? The soldier did, i and many other things that were j disagreeable, while the civilian j could pick his job. Now I am crippled up the same as a lot of others are and now I want to ask anybody if he thinks our $1 a day was clear. I have read The Times for several years and would not miss a single edition if I could help it and j I think it is a fine newspaper and stands for honesty, so let's be frank and have honesty. Who is ahead, the civilian or the soldier? a a a By W. S. I read the article written by H. R. in The Times, dated Oct. 11, and saw your editor's note. Just what kind of a sap worked for less than $5 a day? I know, and you know, too, that no one who worked during the war received less than $5 a day. My own brother, who was only 16, did nothing but throw switches in a coal mine and‘received $7.20 for eight hours, and my brother-in-law made from $lO to sls a day in the mine. I have some relatives who worked on the St. Louis division of the Big Four railroad and most of their checks were from $125 to S2OO each pay day. and I can produce many people who received lots over your “less than $4 a day.” The way the government dished out money to every one except the soldier would make a sap of any one who worked for less than $5 a day. The soldier received S3O a month, ! minus sls for allotment, from $6.25 I up for insurance. Just what do you mean by cheap insurance and fam-j ily allotment? My family received j a check for sls which was taken ■ from my S3O and that was all. The insurance I paid for did me no good. | I would have been better off with- I out it. I got some mustard gas and it. worked on my throat and nose and different places on my body, j and I have arthritis so bad i nearly have fits in the winter. And all this is caused from wading and sleeping in mud and water j during my twenty months' overseas I service with the Twelfth F. A.. Sec- i ond division. But because I didn't put in that twenty months in the j hospital, I can't get a cent compensation. The railroads and all j big business received their large I cash bonus as soon as the war i ended, but the soldiers were and j are the goats. Call us treasury rob- ! bers. If no one defrauded the gov- j ernment out of any more than the ! ex-service men do, the treasury i wouldn't be empty. They have : S3 300,000,000 to give big business, but not a cent for the men who! fought for this country. I had a certificate for $1,582. Re- ! ceived $791 in 1931 and how much j will I have coming in 1945 after ' they take out interest on $791 at the ! rate of 34 per cent compound? The j reason the legion says not to pay [ the bonus is because there isn r t

half of them who have any bonus due. Any one can get in the legion who wore a uniform. Thsy don’t have to have any war service. I notice the Veterans of Foreign Wars are for a cash bonus and I know they have a bonus due them. I wouldn’t join the American Legion under any condition. I probably would be shot if I expressed my opinion of the legion in this letter. It is not for an ex-soldier. It is more harm than help for the exservice man. I will read the Message Center every evening, for I expect a big patriotic speech from some ex-flag waver who told us nothing would be too good for us when we came back and they really meant it. Nothing is a lot too good for us. att a By H. R. I couldn’t expect you to see the ex-service man’s side after the way Talcott Powell ran us down in his editorials during the last bonus crusade. I suppose you will say I am wrong when I say that all shipyard workers received more than $5 a day for just coming to their job and loafing all day. For every one working for less than $4 a day during the war, there were fifty making more than $5 day. You know that as well as the public does. I sure wish you could have been there to share our wonderful menu and helped us on with our overcoats, changed our shoes and sox when our feet were wet and those new watery beds were something you shouldn’t have missed. Hard dough pills were used for everything from toothache to fallen down arches. That was all right. We took it on the chin then. But we can’t take it that way forever. Hope you get a chance to share some of the comforts we had if the U. S. ever has another war. a a a By Arthur Easterday. The writer of this letter has taken The Times for thirteen years. I have read articles in your paper that I believed in and again I have read some in which I know you either have been misinformed or you have guessed. I get a big kick out of reading your Message Center or People’s Voice, as you used to call it. It seems as though the chief topic of conversation is the ex-service man. I happen to be one myself, having served two years overseas with the First division. I seldom take any notice of what the papers publish regarding the service man because most generally, it is always against him. But in the Oct. 11 issue, I noticed an item written by H. R., stating his views as he sees it. Everything he says is true to a certain extent. But the main thing I want to arrive at is the Editor’s Note at the bottom which is as follows: “Only a few well publicized workers received the civilian wage H. R. mentions. The average wage in this country in 1918 was $4 a day, out of which a man had to support himself and family.” And it further reads “That private soldier’s $1 a day was clear, in addition to free clothing, housing, etc.” Now, Mr. Powell, I want to ask you what army you served in. It wasn't Uncle Sam's army, because if
BARELY MISS COPS' CARS; THREE HELD Gallon of Liquor Seized, Officers Claim. Three men riding in two automobiles said narrowly to have missed crashing into police cars early today, are under arrest. Harry Peyton, 33. Negro of 626 (g North California street, was charged with transporting liquor, reckless driving and no driver’s license, and James Coyle, 51, Negro, 1030 Hosbrook street, was charged with transporting liquor, following their arrest by Lieutenant Dan Cummings and squad, who said a car owned by Coyle and driven by Peyton nearly hit their car. A gallon of liquor was seized, they said, after a chase. After a chase of several blocks, Jacob Phillios, 26, of 1401 North Holmes avenue, was arrested on a drunken driving charge. Patrolman William Brooks and Otto Burk said Phillips’ car narrowly missed colliding with one they occupied. STEE’I HEAD REPORTS RECOVERY PROGRESS Myron C. Taylor Urges Support for NRA Programs.

Taylor declared his faith in the future and urged support of the President's recovery program as “the olain duty of every citizen.”
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
you did, you would have had taken out of your pay each month $6 to $7 for insurance, $5 to $lO for Liberty bonds, and, if married, an allotment to your dependents. You were not asked to take out Liberty bonds. You were not asked to take out insurance. They simply deducted it and you liked it. So, in reality, the private soldier’s pay was around sls a month. As for clothing, medical attention, and such, you and your paper would like to make the pubiic think that the soldiers fought in the daytime (under NRA) and slept at night. Why don’t you mention, if you know, about the life the overseas man had to lead. He slept in water and muddy holes. He changed clothes once every week or two and all you needed to know about medicine was to give “C. C. pills and paint it iodine.” You, Mr. Talcott Powell, always have been a bitter enemy of the men who made it possible for you to enjoy your life in harmony and peace. If you must publish things regarding the ex-service man, please publish facts or nothing at all. a a a By E. H. Rader. In reference to H. R.s letter in the Message Center and the editor’s note in reply to same, will you please allow me to say that the editor is also in error in his statistics in saying that “The private soldier’s $1 a day was clear.” The private soldier was compelled to make an allotment to a dependent, if he had any. To this the government also gave an equal amount. This went to the dependent and not to the soldier. Those having no dependents were compelled to buy Liberty bonds and others were given to understand that if they didn’t buy bonds, they might wish they had by the time they got through doing extra duty. As to the cheap life insurance, it cost from $6 to $8 a month, and this insurance covered only death and total disability. As first sergeant of Headquarters company, 359th Infantry, I know whereof I speak and I know that more than 70 per cent of the private soldiers drew less than $6 a month after the deductions for bonds, allotment and insurance (cheap) were made, and out of this amount, they had to pay for their laundry, tobacco, and what shows or entertainments they could afford. Please don’t kick “the treasury robber” just because you’ve got him down. tt a a By H. C. Waggoner. You say, editor, the ex-soldier was fed, br*t did the army do it? Mess fund was 34 cents a day during the war and 50 cents after the war. Who paid the difference on the mess fund? Editor's Note—A common delusion of ex-service men is that every one not in the army received enormous wages. The national bureau of economic researoh, which deals in facts not emotions, has calculated the average civilian wage in 1918 as a little under S4 a day. Many able-bodied service men also have claimed pensions on the ground that they were subjected to unusual physical hardships. Here are war department figures: Total armed forces, 4,800,000; total overseas. 2,086,(KM): total In action, 1,390,000. The Times favors most generous treatment for genuinely war disabled and dependents of dead, nothing for the able-bodied veteran. Yes, the editor was in the army, private, infantry, but this makes no difference in the fact's.

U. S.-RUSSIAN PACT URGED BY JOE JQBINSON Arkansas Senator Speaks on Dictatorships at Forum Session. "The time has arrived when the United States well may consider a reversal of its policy on recognition of Soviet Russia,” asserted Senator Joseph T. Robinson, United States majority leader, last night before the Indianapolis Open Forum at Kirshbaum Center. “No reason suggests itself.” he said, “for denying to our citizens the benefits which may be anticipated from the diplomatic recognition of Russia, even though we do not approve of the political principles underlying the Soviet republic. “One of the principal reasons assigned for non-recognition is that the prevailing regime refused to recognize its responsibility for the indebtedness due the United States for loans made prior to the time when Lenin became dictator. Bolstered by Fear “That reason,” he added with a touch of humor, “loses much of its force when we recall that other governments with which the United States maintains cordial relations have indicated their purpose not to discharge obligations admittedly due this country.” Talking on “Dictators and International Relations,” Senator Robinson asserted that dictatorships are regimes of force, “Always the dictator must have behind him the army and the navy. Always he has been bolstered by fear and by suppression of free speech and the press,” he asserted. Dictators Not Tolerant “It is only in times of great national danger, when war or economic ruin is threatened, that the masses are disposed to tolerate the denial of their rights and privileges, which once possessed and enjoyed, they are likely to reclaim when the emergency has passed.” “Toleration,” he said, “is not characteristic of any dictatorship in existence. In Russia there has been no expression of the masses in favor of Soviet control, but in Italy, Mussolini has so stimulated the pride and aroused the prejudices of the masses that his tyranny now finds cordial support among them.” “Freedom of speech and press,” he said, “exist in Italy only when the speaker and the writer are supporters of Fascism and admirers of Mussolini.” Flays Hitler Regime Flaying bitterly the regime of Adolf Hitler, Senator Robinson asserted that “the brown-shirted Nazi is as fanatical a nationalist as the black-shirted Fascist. The emblem of the Nazi is a symbol of hatred.” “No impartial student,” he said, “can doubt that the brown shirts have been permitted, if they have not been permitted and encouraged, to commit unspeakable crimes against hundreds of unoffending Jews. “Nazi songs and the Nazi platform in almost every paragraph appeal to base passions which find vent in forms of cruelty inconsistent with the simplest world standards of civil liberty and justice.” POOR - RELIEF CENSUS ■ OF STATE IS BEGUN Letters Sent to All Township Trustees Seeking Information. Launching of a program for a complete ‘poor relief census of the state was begun today through letters to all township trustees from the Governor’s commission on unemployment. The letters outline the plan which will be placed in operation as soon as proper blanks are received from the federal relief administration, it was announced by Keller Madden, statistician in charge. It is expected to be completed and in the hands of federal authorities by Nov. 7.
