CWfl GRAFTERS TO FACE 11. S. COURTACTION Petty Politicians Flayed by Hopkins: Joseph Keenan Leads Drive. ‘FERRETING OUT’ STARTS Justice Department to Aid; All Reports Will Be Probed. Bu United pr- ss WASHINGTON. Jan. 23. The government battled graft in the emergency relief and civil works administrations today. Administrator Harry L. Hopkins ’ asserted bitterly that thousands of dollars already have been devoted to investigating reports of scandals , in the two administrations and | warned that prosecution faces un- | scrupulous politicians and petty grafters who have used the recov- j ery agencies for personal gains. The youthful, clear-eyed head of i the twin units which have provided ; 6,000.000 Americans with employment, food, shelter and clothing said 1 that the department of justice j henceforth will deal with those j profiting due to the misery' of others.

Keenan Takes t harge Assistant Attorney-General Joseph B. Keenan, driving chief of the criminal division of the justice department, has been placed in charge of ferreting out the grafters. Already he has sent investigators to Los Angeles county. Cal., where a CWA scandal is brewing that may reach into political circles. There, a 'brokerage'' fee racket has been .exposed, and two women have been arrested. The civil works program at Pittsburgh, Pa., has been ordered investigated by Mr. Hopkins, and a civil works engineer for Pennsylvania has been discharged for alleged solicitation of a “fee.” Many Reports Probed Newspaper reports of alleged irregularities have come from Michigan. New York. Alabama, West Virginia and New Jersey. Approximately 500 CWA workers at the Arden project, m New York, presented a petition for removal of their superiors, complaining of ' intolerable” conditions; at Hammonton. N. J., Samuel Perone, labor leader, officiated at a protest meeting and charged that certain officials were putting relatives on the pay roll. Where such reports have been officially conveyed to Administrator Hopkins, field representatives have been ordered to “investigate.” “But you can't keep a policeman In every community,” observed Mr. Hopkins. A few politicians, he said, have “licked'' him “from the start.” Discontinuance Is Protested CWA, Mr. Hopkins added, is re- j ceiving “9.000 letters ad ay” in pro- 1 test against terminating the civil works program on May 1. Congress may be asked for $350,COO.OOO to continue the program temporarily. Some in cognress favor even a larger appropriation. Administrator Hopkins also is expected to seek $500,000.00 for continuing relief work, although he believes in the spring farming, seasonal industries and the PWA should absorb about 5.000,00 Cof the 9.000,000 persons now on relief lists. Os the 9.000.000, Mr. Hopkins said about 2.000.000 were expected to be supported on farms. The administration anticipates, he said, that between 1.000.000 and 2.000.000 will be absorbed by public works projects and that seasonal industries will absorb another 1,000,000. Speed Brings Graft Approximately 3.000.000 of the total were described as “floaters,'' having been unemployed in the boom period of 1929. Mr. Hopkins attributed his trouble with grafters to the speed with which the CWA was launched in November to put 4.000,000 persons to work in thirty days. It was in attempts to forestall graft that public works administrator Harold Ickes stirred criticism for delay in starting works projects. With all his caution, Mr. Ickes eventually encountered, like Mr. Hopkins, reports of grafting. These too have been turned over to the justice department. Administrator Ickes has been given blanket authority by President Roosevelt to take such steps as he may deem necessary to prevent graft and manipulation of public works funds, it was learned today. LACK OF CASH KAY END ROAD WIDENING WORK State Commission Will Seek More Funds From CWA. The state highway commission's state road widening program which ha* been employing more than 20,000 men. may have to be discontinued shortly, unless additional federal funds are received, it was announced today by Chairman James D. Adams. The work has been performed with a state appropriation of $3,000.000 and a federal PWA grant of $600,000. Efforts will be made to obtain funds from the civil works administration.

Suspect in Mystery Slaying of City Policeman Is Held at Sacramento. An indefinite clew in the form of a letter addressed to Chief Mike Morrisey was the only tangible evidence in the possession of the Indianapolis police today regarding a solution to the slaying of Patrolman Paul Miller in 1928. Mystery surrounding the killing of the former Indianapolis policeman on Station street in Brightwood on the night of July 17, 1928, w r as recalled today w'ith a report from Sacramento, Cal., that police are investigating a suspect in the murder. Dispatches from the coast stated that detectives were questioning Wayne Wilkes, confessed slayer of Forest Gibson in Sacramento, in regard to his purported knowledge of the death of Patrolman Miller. Woman Writes Letter No official W'ord had been received from Sacramento officers at police headquarters here today. Chief Morrissey was aw'aiting further confirmation of the alleged report before sending Indianapolis detectives to California. The letter, purporting to implicate Wilkes in the murder of the Indianapolis policeman, was received recently from Mrs. Marie Prouty, a former acquaintance of Wilkes. According to Chief Morrissey, Mrs. Prouty stated in her letter that Wilkes had confided to her that he shot and killed Patrolman Miller. Instead of replying to the letter, Chief Morrissey revealed, he wrote to the Sacramento officials explaining that the circumstances described in the letter w'ere similar to those, surrounding the death of Patrolman Miller. Investigating Prowler Patrolman Miller was killed when he was sent to investigate reports of a prow'ler at a drug store on Station street. Officer Miller and his partner, policeman Roy Banks, saw two men sitting on a doorstep nearby and walked ovei* to question them. One of the men opened fire and patrolman Miller fell. According to witnesses, the. killers fired several shots into the prostrate body. Patrolman Banks, hearing the shooting, rushed out of a store which he had been searching and fired at the assailants. Subsequently, in a roundup of all transients, numerous suspects were questioned, but later released.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

CONVICT GANG LEADER SLAIN INJSUN DUEL Four of Companions Are CapturecL Sent Back to Prison. Bn United Press PAOLA, Kan., Jan. 23.—80 b Brady, co-leader of seven desperadoes who escaped Friday from the Kansas State prison at Lansing, lay in a morgue here today, his body riddled with police bullets. Four of his convict companions were back at Lansing, in solitary confinement. Oklahoma authorities pushed search for the remaining two. Brady was killed and Tommy McMahon, Fred Cody and Kenneth Young were captured in a gun battle late yesterday between Miami county officers and the fugitives. Charles Clifton McArthur, also known as Claude Newton, was arrested in Kansas City, Mo., Sunday. Tries to “Shoot It Out” Jim Clark, who with Brady led the Weak over the prison wall, and Frank Delmar were belie<ved to have gained refuge with confederates in the Oklahoma hills. Brady, known as one of the most dangerous criminals in the southwest, was killed as he attempted to “shoot it out” with H. R. Lininger, undersheriff, and Ed Scholtman, a deputy. Brady’s shotgun jammed, to which the officers attribute their lives. The convicts were surprised in a cornfield after a farmer had reported suspicious men loitering along a stream on his place. Offer No Resistence His three companions fled when the firing began. They were intercepted by reinforcements Lininger had summoned, guided to the scene by the firing. They offered no resistance. Cody said Brady was ready for the end and would not have hesitated to kill both the officers. He said that the men were showered with bullets as they fled over the wall of the prison, using a home-made ladder. A bullet snapped Cody’s watch chain. Seven pierced a sweater McArthur wore, but none of the seven was struck. Meantime, two guards had been suspended or discharged at the penitentiary as a result of the escape and a state investigation of the break was under way.

KIDNAP ‘FIRING SQUADS'URGED Lindbergh May Be Asked to Testify Before House Committee. Bn United Tress WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.—Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh and members of other families in which kidnapings have occurred, will be asked to testify at a house committee hearing on a bill calling for death by a firing squad for kidnapers who kill their victims, Representative Snyder (Dem., Pa.), said today. Mr. Snyder said he had been promised hearings on his measure by Chairman Sumners of the house judiciary committee. “The ’firing squad’ bill would scare kidnapers from killing their victims,” Snyder said. Under it kidnapers who do not return their victims before being sentenced, would be killed by a firing squad of “twelve United States army men,

seventy-two hours after being sentenced.” Chairman Sumners said that while he personally favored the death penalty for kidnapers. “I do not want to fool around with a firing squad.” A 47-year-old apple tree at Central, S.
