VAN NUYS DEFIES LEADERS, FLAYS CITY BOND BILL Bankruptcy Act 111-Advised, He Insists in First Senate Speech. By Timra Sprrial WASHINGTON, May 2—Senator Frederick Van Nuys celebrated May day by conducting his first fight from the senate floor. Like those staged by his Republican colleague from Indiana, Senator Arthur R. Robinson, Senator Van Nuys’ battle ts against an administration bill. He made a vigorous attack on the municipal bankruptcy measure yesterday and expected to continue to fight the bill's passage today. Under terms of the measure a municipal government could take advantage of the bankruptcy laws and scale down its obligations upon petition of 75 per cent of the creditors. Senator Van Nuys was chairman of the subcommittee handling the bill and in opposition to a majority of the committee and despite support for the bill from the administration he brought to the floor a minority report against passage. “I am opposed to the measure because I think it is ill-advised both in principle and in thought," Senator Van Nuys began in his maiden speech after a year in the upper house. *‘l am oposed to the measure because it is the opening wedge in repudiation of state and federal obligations. There are certain elementary and academic principles upon which a government is strong or an individual is strong. I do not believe that any man ever succeeded in life unless he took as one of tlTe academic and fundamental priciples of his daily life the determination to meet all his honest debts. I do not believe that any government can endure in this country which violates that simple, fundamental, academic principle, the will to meet and pay its honest debts.P Declaring that he understood that the bill is ‘predestined to become a law.” Senator Van Nuys flayed administration backing of the measure and fellow senators who followed such advice. "I care not who is behind this proposed legislation,” he snapped. "I care not who has been called to the telephone here and been whipped

Hy 1 imra Special MUNCIE. May 2.—Despite suffering a wound at the age of 18, which was considered at the time as almost certain to end his life. Emerson McColm, Delaware county resident, has passed his sixty-eighth birthday. Fifty years ago Mr. McColm was wounded when a shotgun burst when he discharged it while hunting. A portion of his skull was blown away, exposing the brain, in which a breech pin from the gun was imbedded. The pin was removed and Mr. McColm still has it as a memento of an occasion when “death took a holiday." He is still able to do all forms of farm work except those which require stooping for a long period. Aside from occasional headaches, the wound, which is covered only by skin, causes him no inconvenience.

U. S. REFUSES FUNDS FOR COUNTY SURVEY Ickes Turns Down Van Nuys Request for Allotment. By Timr* Special WASHINGTON, May 2.—Appeal of Senator Frederick Van Nuys for funds to complete the topographical survey of Marion county, was turned down today by Harold L. Ickes. secretary of interior, who has charge of the federal public works program. The survey was launched as part of the Indiana CWA program and Senator Van Nuys sought to complete it with PWA funds. It was pointed out that it provided work for a number of engineers and other skilled men in Indianapolis. Mr. Ickes reported today that all present PWA funds are allocated and the only possibility for such a project being completed would be by approval of a formal application and further allocation of funds. into line for the passage of this iniquitous bill. Personally, I would rather retain my self respect, my loyalty to my own people, and my adherence to my convictions than to be registered among the “favored few" who have been whipped into line by any department telephone call while w'e are in session here trying to do our duty."

FIRST LADY'S WEIGHT FALLS FAR SHORT OF GUESSER'S ESTIMATE

By I niled Pri a a WASHINGTON. May 2.—Circus performers are used to most anything. but today it seemed that a visit by the nation's first lady gives them the jitters. Mrs Franklin D. Rosevelt visited a newspaper women's charity carnival last night. First she presented herself to Mme. Emily Hudspeth, “nonpareil mindreader.” The madame was to excited to peer into the future. All she could say was: ' This is quite a pleasure.” Next Mrs. Roosevelt visited the stand of Daniel Krassner, “weightguesser extraordinary.” Krassner estimated Mrs. Rosevelt at 155 pounds. “But I only weigh 145,” said Mrs. Roosevelt and accepted the 10-cent walking stick which Krassner forfeits whenever he fails to come within three pounds of the correct weight.

Old Bullets Found I By Timra Sprrinl WESTFIELD. May 2.—Working on I the roof of the home of Clifton Stalker, near here, Elzie Evans found a shingle with two .38-caliber bullets imbedded in it. One of the j bullets had a surface which apparently had been sawed, leading to a belief that shots were fired into a tree from which the shingle was made. The roof has been on the home for thirty years, having been laid at a time when all red cedar shingles were shipped to this section from Oregon or Washington. tt tt tt $1,000,000 Loaned | By Timet Sprcinl SHELBYVILLE, May 2—the si* hundredth loan on property in Shelbyville has been granted by the I Home Owners Loan Corporation, i Several hundred applications have not yet been acted upon.

TEACHERS' PAY UNCHANGED FOR ENSUING YEAR

May Share SIOO,OOO Surplus on Sums Owing for '32 Is Indication. Salaries for Indianapolis school teachers for 1934-35 will be the same as for last year, the school board decided yesterday. Hope that the teachers will receive pay for five of the nineteen days pay they iosi at the end of the 1932-33 school year, was given in the announcement that a SIOO,OOO balance in the 1934 budget is anticipated. A full pay roll for the present year is assured, the school commissioners announced. Recommendation that the new salary schedule include only reductions provided by the 1929 legislature was received from the Federation of Indianapolis Public School Teachers. Although the act provided that the teachers should be reduced an average of about 6 per cent, to meet budget requirements, the board increased this reduction to 17 per cent in subsequent proceedings. The board pointed out that the request for an addition to the school budget of $400,000 for salaries would necessitate a tax rate increase of approximately 8 cents. As they felt a tax increase at this time would be impossible, the board recommended the same salary schedule for 193435.
