‘LEGISLATURE’ IS WIPED OUT BY MUSSOLINI Chamber of Deputies Is Replaced by Guilds in Bold Move. fly r !/.<# I'rru ROME, Nov. 14.- Premier Benito Mussolini, abolishing at one stroke the ancient Italian parliamentary system, today announced dissolution of the chamber of deputies .and the turning over of national legislative powers to a system of trade and commercial guilds. The guilds, through their central council, and embracing Industry, labor and commerce, will replace the chamber in the new “corporative state" evolved by Mussolini on the foundations of Fascism. Mussolini's speech, an historic pronouncement which had been forecast when he issued his call for today's momentous meeting of the National Guild Council, confirmed the setting up of anew political system, and left few of its details undisclosed. Reviews “Capitalism” After reviewing the ‘history” of capitalism, which, he said, embraced three phases, the dynamic, the static and the decadent,” and declaring that the rise of the cartel and trust from 1870 on marked the decline of the old system, Mussolini turned to modern life. The United States,” he declared, “was the first nationt to raise an insurmountable customs barrier, and sche was followed by England. The World war followed, after which we passed from millions to billions as a unit of production. An example of this situation can be found in the cases of Krcuger and Instill. "Today, Europe is not dominating the world, either politically, spiritually or economically. A great American industrial organization has arisen. The Orient is awakening. Japan is marching with great strides.” Old System “Alien” Turning abruptly to the question of parliament, Mussolini announced his decision to dissolve the chamber of deputies. “A co-operative structure will then replace in toto." he declared, "the present institution called the chamber of deputies, because young Fascist blood refuses to get stale in this old environment.” “I never liked the present chamber of deputies,” he continued, “because it was an anachronistic institution which we found when we took [rower. It was alien to our minds.” DELIVER AUTO PLATES Vermont Licenses Are Made at Indiana Prison. Hit I Hit'll !•>'* MICHIGAN CITY. Ind..

THRILLS AND CHILLS! a a a a a a a a a Heroes Recount Experiences of War

BV WILLIAM M’GALGHEY Time* Staff Writer Service Club members were recovering today from an attack of thrills and chills, resulting from hair-raising tales of the World war recounted at a belated Armistice day celebration yesterday at the club luncheon. Six wearers of distinguished service medals received for war heroism fought the war over again, speaking on the subject: “What Scared Me Most During the War.”

Colonel H Weir Cook fired the first shot on the program as he told of his experiences in the air corps. Leading a squadron of planes on an air attack over the German lines, Colonel Cook stated that he experienced his most sacred moment when he found that half of his propellor was shot off by a fusillade of shots from anti-aircraft guns. Heading his plane back behind the line of fire. Colonel Cook picked out a soft spot, for the ambulance corps to pick up his body and then dropped the nose of his plane towards earth. Much to his surprise, he maneuvered the plane to a landing with so much skill that he was able to climb out of the wreckage, Colonel Cook modestly admitted. Close to Germans “No Mans Land” was the scene of the most ticklish moment for Oscar Catterlin, an A-sergeant, who lived to tell the tale. Placed in charge of a patrol composed of Mexican and Negro soldiers who loved danger, soldier Catterlin was told one night to go out in the disputed territory to reconnoiter. Once away from the American lines, Catterlin s companions decided that they wanted to see what “Jerry” looked like and took their leader along. According to Catterlin's story, his crew came so close to the Germans that he could smell their onion-laden breaths blowing in his face. To see men slaughtered before his eyes while he stood by helpless was the most grewsome moment to Earl Bonham, a former Butler college football star, who was among the first to enlist. The men in Bonham's division, the first Americans to see action at the front, were placed under the command of an experienced French officer. After a long march in the fog, the soldiers rested near Nancy, in the gummy mud of an abandoned cugout. Startled by the cry, “Boche attack,” the men rushed to the sandbag trenches, where they saw a German raid in progress. Not a Shot Fired Although a battery of guns were in front of the enemy attack, not a shot was fired by the Americans because of orders from their French leader. Consequently, many Americans were killed without any retaliation on the part of his battalion, Bonham explained. In a tale somewhat similar to Bonham's, a former sailor, Par> Denny, related how gun fire was withheld on the high seas during a submarine scare. Passing through a danger zone on the Mediterranean sea near Algiers, Denny was aroused from his sleep at 2 in the morning with the orders to “man the bridge of the ship.” In the darkness it was impossible to distinguish between submarines and submarine chasers, Denny said. So, while the gunnners refrained from shooting for fear of hitting one of their own sub chasers, the German underwater craft sank several of the small boats belonging to the Americans. U-Boat Flees After Attack Finally, the U-boat fled. The next morning it was revealed that two ships in a convoy fifty miles away

were sunk by the same sub two hours after the attack on Denny's boat. Harry Martin, a former second lieutenant, said his worst scare during the war came at a time when he least expected it. In charge of a company of soldiers, near Beaumont, France, Martin advanced toward a position known as “dead man's curve.” Here he met the major of the battalion, and the two officers decided to look over their vantage point, so they could entrench their men in case the enemy should decide to attack some time in the 'so they thought) future. Strolling leisurely about, swinging their walking sticks, the two | men stopped to admire the beauty of a small stream. While Martin leaned blissfully | and peacefully on his cane he was ; startled out of his reverie by a j thunder-like noise from hidden Germany artillery a few hundred ! yards away. The Germany drive r was on and the two terror-stricken officers scampered back to their fortifications in a dead heat. Service Club members nearly exploded as Paul Ragsdale rounded out the group of stories with his prize experience. Sixty men in battalion composed of lowa farmers attempted to take the little town of Serge, in July, 1918. With enemy machine gun snipers sending a fusillade of lead across a highway to warn the Americans to keep off. Ragsdale was ordered to cross the road with his men despite the gun fire. Ragsdale went first and crossed safely. His men followed individually and all were unharmed. Then the company began an advance over a hill, where they met determined “esistence on the part of the Boche guns. Ragsdale related that he threw himself down on the ground but decided that he was too much exposed to the enemy gun fire. Spying four boxes a few feet away, he dragged himself over to them and sought protection behind them during the remainder of the -ounter attack. Then, in a horrible moment, v h shrapnels whizzing overhead and shells tearing holes in the ground a few feet away, Ragsdale chanced to read the lettering upon one of the ’->oxes. It read: HIGH EXPLOSIVE AMMUNITION.

CITY TAX RATE TO REMAIN AT $1.31 Reduction Unlikely, State Board Indicates. Indianapolis city tax rate will re- | main at the $1.31 figure approved by the county tax adjustment board, it appeaerd today when opposition to the rate faded out at a hearing before the state tax bo^rd. Appeal was taken by the Indiana i Taxpayers Association. Representatives of the association, Mayor j Raginald H. Sullivan and other city j officials appeared before the board j for the second time today. The as- | sociation failed to present figures requested by the state board and asked that the board itself procure ; them. This will be done by the state board of accounts, it was announced j by Albert F. Walsman, state tax commissioner, presiding. He indicated, however, that there was slight chance of any rate reduction resulting. TRIAL DATE SET FOR ALLEGED SLAYERS Jones Killer Suspects Will Face Court Nov. 22. Trial of five members of the gang alleged to have murdered Police Sergeant Lester Jones will open Nov. 22 in Noblesville, with Hamilton Circuit Judge Fred E. Hines presiding, Prosecutor Herbert E. Wilson announced today. Fixing of the trial date followed a conference yesterday between Judge Hines and Mr. Wilson at Noblesville. Judge Hines previouslyhad announced no trials would be held unless Marion county paid an old $4,300 costs bill owed Hamilton county. On Nov. 22, the defendants will be required to plead, and if separate trials are asked, the state will elect which defendant is tried first. According to County Auditor Charles A. Grossart, the county council this morning appropriated $20,000 for payment of change of venue costs, a part of which sum will be used to settle the Hamilton county bill. PARKED CAR LOOTERS ARE ACTIVE IN CITY Clothes Taken From Automobiles: Booty Exceeds SIOO. Parked car thieves continued their activities last night, obtaining loot valued at more than SIOO from three automobiles. Two overcoats valued at $25 each were stolen from the car of Russell Easton. 1165 North Tibbs avenue, while it was parked near the Walkathon.

- MUSCULAR RHEUMATIC PAINS IT takes more than a salve to draw them out. It takes a “counterirritant”! And that’s what good old Musterole is—soothing, warming, penetrating and helpful in drawing out the pain and congestion when rubbed on the sore, aching spots. Muscular lumbago, soreness and stiffness generally yield promptly to this treatment, and with continued application once an hour, blessed relief is often experienced in five hours. Even better results than the neverfailing old-fashioned mustard plaster. Used by millions of people. Recommended by many doctors and nurses. All druggists. In three strengths: Regular Strength, Children’s (mild), and Extra Strong.
