FRENCH AIRMEN SPAN ATLANTIC, LAND AT N. Y. Monoplane Forced to Abandon Nonstop Hop from Paris to California; Motor Trouble Held Responsible. CODOS, ROSSI IN AIR 38 HOURS Craft' Appears Unexpectedly Over Floyd Bennett Airfield, Dumping Gasoline as Fliers Maneuver for Smooth Drop. By United Press FLOYD BENNETT FIELD, NEW YORK, May 28.—The silver monoplane Joseph Lebrix, bound from Paris for California, completed a speedy crossing of the North Atlantic ocean today, but was forced to land at this Long Island air-port-some 2,600 miles short of their ambitious goal. Motor trouble forced them down. The monoplane, bearing Lieutenant Paul Codos and Lieutenant Maurice Rossi, landed at 2:87 p. m. (Indianapolis time) after a flight—through fog off the Newfoundland coast—of 38 hours and 27 minutes. The only other westward flight from Paris to New York was the epic aerial journey of Dieudonne Coste and Maurice Bellonte, in 1980, who crossed in 37 hours and 17 minutes.

The monoplane appeared unexpectedly over the airport, circling slowly and dumping gas as she maneuvered for a landing. The fliers had been forced to reduce their speed as they came down the New England coast because of motor trouble. They also had cut off radio communication and had neither been sighted nor reported directly after leaving Maine. Their prolonged silence gave rise to conflicting reports that they had landed on Cape Cod and elsewhere. MAN, WIFE DEAD IN QUARREL OVER AIMEE Woman Shoots Husband Who Wouldn’t Hear Evangelist.

TOLEDO FACES GENERAL TIEUP NRA Conciliators -Strive Desperately to Bar New Menace. By United Press 4 TOLEDO, 0.. May 28.—Threat of a general strike which would paralyze Toledo industry spurred representatives of the NRA today in efforts to bring peace in the cap-ital-labor warfare that has held the city in a bloody grasp for almost a week. Negotiators feared that labor troubles dwarfing those of the last few days would result unless they arrive at settlement of the strike at Electric Auto-Lite Company, where rioting between national guardsmen and strikers turned the region into a bloody battleground. Peace reigned at the Auto-Lite plant today, giving federal mediators a breathing spell during which they might meet calmly with union and company representatives and work out a solution. National guardsmen continued to patrol the riot-torn “war zone.” Imminent danger of a strike of all electrical workers lent renewed urgency for settlement. Members of electrical workers’ union No. 245 set Thursday as the deadline in their controversy with Toledo Edison Company, and agreed to walk out then if no agreement is reached. Central labor union heads said sixty out of 103 locals had agreed to a general strike on June 6. Charles P Taft 11, son of the late President, expressed confidence that the day would bring forth a proposal satisfactory to both sides. Union automotive workers are to meet at 7:30 p. m. to consider any settlement which may be worked out during the day. Meanwhile Coroner Frank G. Kreft prepared for an inquest to place blame for the killing of Frank Hubay, 37, one of two men slain Thursday. 2 DEAD IN GUN DUEL Officer Kills Assailant Aftef Being Mortally Wounded.

White Paper Makes Reading News Easier, Optometrists Advise The Times

"IT 7HITE paper was preferred * ™ above any other for use in newspaper publication by the majority of the city’s leading optometrists in a survey conducted today by The Times. Canary yellow was mentioned by three as best, and a yellowishblue by another. Almost all were agreed that pink, along with other shades of red, either did or might serve as an irritant. The survey was undertaken by The Times to determine whether it might serve best its steadily growing public by abandoning its present pink editions and using white paper for all editions. Only one of the optometrists favored retention of the pink. Three said there was -o appreciable difference between the pink and the white.

Case Owner Will Be Tried on June 22 in Death of Salesman Suspect, Fashionably Dressed, Is Arraigned Before Judge Dewey Myers on Manslaughter Charge; Victim to Be Buried Today. Dressed in the height of fashion, Frank Gardner, charged with manslaughter in connection with the death of Thomas Sargent, well-known Indianapolis amateur actor, was arraigned in municipal court today. Municipal Judge Dewey Myers set trial date for June 22. Gardner, arrested Saturday on charges growing out of an altercation in his restaurant Friday night in which it is alleged Mr. Sargent received a fatal blow, was released on $5,000 bond.

The fight in the restaurant was said to have occurred when Gardner objected to singing by members of Mr. Sargent’s party. Funeral services for the young Indianapolis actor, who was widely applauded for his work in the role of Hildy Johnson in Ben Hecht’s newspaper play, “The Front Page,’’ the Civic theater play of 1933, were to be held in Muncie late today. Murder Charge Reduced The Rev. Clarence E. Gardner, Indianapolis, was to officiate at the services in Meek’s mortuary. Burial will be in Beech Grove cemetery. Mr. Sargent’s death was caused by a fracture of the skull, according to the autopsy performed by Dr. William E. Arbuckle, coronor. At Dr. Arbuckle’s order, the murder charge against Gardner was reduced to manslaughter. Following a visit to the restaurant operated by Gardner at 250 South Illinois street, Friday night, Mr. Sargent is reported to have told police that Gardner struck him on the head with a blackjack, in a fight which started in the restaurant. Singing Is Objected To A young woman member of the party of which Mr. Sargent was one, began humming a tune in the restaurant, it was learned. A fight ensued in which Gardner and Mr. Sargent exchanged blows, according to the police. Mrs. Inez Sargent, widow of the victim, at first told police that she had been downtown with her husband after he attended a meeting of the bankers’ convention at the Cloypool late Friday. Mrs. Sargent said they stayed downtown until 11 p. m. and then returned home. At that time, according to the first version of the widow’s story, Mr. Sargent did not complain of feeling ill. She discovered him dead in the morning. Dr. John Salb, deputy coroner, contradicted this version when he told police that Mrs. Sargent had told him that she remained at home Friday night and that her husband had returned home at 11 p. m. apparently unhurt. Gardener Gives Version Police said that Mr. Sargent apparently had suffered no ill effects at the time of the fight. An autopsy, however, revealed that a piece of bone from the skull had been driven into the brain. In a purported statement made to police today, Gardner described the fight in the restaurant. He charged that Mr. Sargent struck him first with his clenched fist. Gardner is alleged to have admitted that he retaliated with several blows. After Mr. Sargent and his party left the restaurant, according to Mr. Gardner’s alleged statement today, the restaurant man ran in back of the counter and seized a blackjack. He did not admit striking Mr. Sargent with the blackjack, according to the police. PRESIDENT ASKS.END OF PHILIPPINE TAX Coconut Oil Levy Violates Pledge, He Says. By United Press WASHINGTON, May 28.—President Roosevelt, in a special message to congress today, requested early reconsideration of a 3-cent per pound processing tax on coconut oil imported from the Philippine islands. Mr. Roosevelt pointed out that the tax was included in the recently signed revenue bill contrary to guarantees incorporated in the Philippine independence act. COLORADO ELK SCARCE Light Snowfall in Highlands Given as Reason. By Times Special OURAY, Colo., May 28.—Elk, which usually come down from the highlands about this time of year to feed, are very scarce this year. Continued good grazing, and light snowfall on the peaks are given as reasons for their preference for the high places.

The comments of some of the optometrists follow: Dr. W. L. Van Osdol, Sfete Life Building, Color Expert There isn’t a bit of doubt that pink, along with other shades of red, is an irritant And, of course, there can be no question that the greater contrast between black and white makes a paper printed on white paper easier to read. However, I should advise a yel-lowish-blue as attractive, calming and out of the ordinary. Dr. J. P. Davey, Kahn RniHiog —White and black is certainly easier to read because of the contrast. Dr. Lon Sorey, Sears-Roebuck Optical Shop—Black on white is always preferable as far as vision is concerned. The pink may attract attention, but it is harder to read.

Alonzo Van Deman, of near New Augusta, a produce agent charged with the murder of Thomas Coffey, farmer, early Saturday, was held to the grand jury today by Municipal Judge Dewey Myers. Held without bail, Van Deman was araigned today after two ineffectual attempts to commit suicide by slashing his wrists. Mr. Coffey, the father of seven children, lived in Pittsboro. He was shot, according to the police in an argument over crops, at the Van Deman farm. Judgment was withheld in the case of Dr. E. O. Asher, New Augusta physician, arrested for interfering with officers after the discovery of the murder.

Dredge Boat Worker Slain By United Press GALVESTON, Tex., May 28.—A band of striking Negro longshoremen was sought today for questioning in the slaying of Ralph Hardy, 42, a dredge boat worker, wffio was shot yesterday.

Dr. Henry M. Schmidt, 106 North Pennsylvania street: “It probably would take laboratory work to determine exactly the eye reaction to pink. It is safe to say, however, that the greater contrast between white and black makes a paper published on white paper easier to read.” Dr. Harold Jaffe, Jaffe & Sons, 7 North Illinois street: “The#most legible printing is that of black on white. Green paper is restful to the eye, but is hard to read. Red or pink paper is easier to read than green, with back ink, but white is best. Reading on a bus, train or tram results in a jar on the retina of the eye. Asa consequence, it is necessary that the printed matter read, such a's newspapers, be easily discerned.” E. O. Noggle, L.

Rat Rattles Rescuer Big Leonard Is Cold All Over and All Because of a Big, Bad Rodent.

The mercury may be hovering in the seventies, but Leonard London, 200 pounds of dusky statehouse janitor, is suffering from cold chills. In fact, Leonard doesn’t think he’ll be warm again for a long time. And the reason is this: _

Shrill screams echoed through the state house rotunda. The first peal of terror was just a warning—a sort of semi-scream—but the chorus made ears twitch in far ends of the building. “Sounds likb a triple murder at least,” volunteered one bystander as there was a convergence on one of the state industrial board offices on the fourth floor. Miss Ruth Philippi, industrial board employe, had started to use her typewriter and on top, cosily asleep on a pile of tangled typewriter ribbon, was a huge rat. Indignant at having his snooze disrupted, the rat started running very dizzily around the office and there was a general exodus. Came Leonard to the rescue, armed with a broom, but Leonard went away from there in practically nothing flat when the rat ran up his overallLs leg! “Man, I’se got the cold chills,” said Leonard as he mopped a dqwy brow. After much furniture shifting the rat was killed and the morning resumed its usual quiet on the fourth floor. But Leonard still is very unhappy. He’s got cold chills. POLICE BLOCK GETAWAY One Robber Shot, Five Held; $3,000 Loot Is Recovered. By United Press ROCHESTER, N. Y„ May 28.—Police, acting on a telephonic tip, met thieves as they left the Mohican Company food store today with nine bags of money containing approximately $3,000, killing one of them with a bullet through the abdomen.

(Coin) Harvey, 82, free silver advocate and candidate for president on the Liberty party ticket in 1932, was to be taken to a St. Louis hospital today for treatment of a fractured hip.

shop: “Type stands out much better on white paper. Newspapers, to my knowledge, do not contribute in any way fb eye strain or injure the sight.” Dr. Robert G. Leidy, Leo Lando, Inc., 37 East Ohio street: “Pink absorbs the light. Tests in a place not properly illuminated will show this. Then, too, the contrast of black and white-is the greatest possible and makes reading easier.” Dr. William T. Pfaff, 512 Odd Fellows building: “What is the best. There is something about pink or any thing with a shade of red in it which irritates the eye. Black on white would be decidedly easier to read, too, because of the greater contrast which, naturally, makes reading easier.” Dr. L. C. Smith, Robinson Op-

JOHN DILLINGER DEAD, IS THEORY HELD BY ATTORNEY-GENERAL

By United Press ATLANTO, May 28.—AttorneyGeneral Homer S. Cummings doubts that John Dililnger still is alive. “He was wounded, you know,” the attorney-general said, "and it isn’t possible to get such excellent medical attention while being chased around the country.” Mr. Cumings made his observations during an inspection of the Atlanta federal penitentiary, where he was told by Warden A. C. Aderhold that his institution effectively could hold the outlaw, should he be captured. The atorney-general replied that despite the efficient plant here, he expected to use the new ’ federal prison, Alcatraz, in San Francisco bay, a favorite project of his.

Mayfield, 34, died in Dunn Memorial hospital today of injuries received in an accident near Salem Saturday. A sister, Mrs. William Smith, Indianapolis, is among the survivors.

tical Cos., 32 Monument Place: “Pink has a mollifying effect in absorbing light and is thus helpful to people whose eyes are super-sensitive to light. However, there is, of course, a greater contrast between black and white than there is between black and pink. This makes it easier for the receptors, or nerve ends in the eyes, and is especially helpful to older people or any one with subnormal vision.” Dr. J. E. Kernel, head of the William H. Block optical department: “I like the pink editions of the paper. I grab it before I do other papers. The type is better in The Indianapolis Times than in other papers. I think the use of black type on pink paper is more legible and easier to read.” Dr. Paul Kernel, Hoosier Optical

Famed Driver Escapes Injury in Spill at Track During Practice Run in Preparation for Trials. WINNAI BARELY MISSES SMASHUP, Machine May Not Be Repaired in Time for Qualification; Steering Arm Break Brings Crackup. Burning the bricks at 120 miles an hour in a practice spir at the Speedway today, Fred Frame, winner of the 1932 motor classic, escaped unhurt when his car hit the northwest wall. While the early morning railbirds gasped with horror, Frame’s blue Frame-Miller Special, with a front wheel drive, careened crazily across the tracks at the northwest curve, whirling toward the inside of the tracks and crashing into the concrete wall. Roaring along in Frame’s wake, Fred Winnai, driving a Duesenberg, passed inside Frame’s car, missing a crash by

SCOUT RUMORS OF GASSTRIKE Reports Branded Unfounded by Officers of Filling Station Union. Rumors that organized gas station attendants in Indianapolis were going out on strike in the near future were denounced as unfounded today by officers of their organization, Filling Station Attendants Union, No. 18,990. 5 The union claims to have as members from 80 to 85 per cent of all filling station attendants in the city. The statement sets at rest persistent reports that the union planned to call a strike on the eve of the 500-mile speedway race, tying up traffic at a season when thousands of cars from other cities are in Indianapolis.

Company: “Red is recognized as a danger signal. It is not soothing to the eye. Green is easier on the eye than red, but black type on white is by far the easiest to read.” Dr. F. T. Lee, head of Fair Store optical department: “My opinion is that black on white paper is much more desirable.” Dr. H. C. Fahrbach, Kay Jewelry Company: “I think it is a question of lighting to a certain degree whether black type should be used on pink or white paper. Under a bright light the black ink on white paper is harder to read and causes more strain than black on pink. But, in moderate lighting or daylight, the black type on white paper is best. Black type on pink paper under dim light causes more accommodative effort and eyestrain.”

inches. The blue Frame-Mil-ler Special hit the low inside wall with a loud crash. Mechanics and spectators, running toward the wreck from all directions, were heartened when they saw Frame and his riding mechanic, A1 Thieses of Dayton, 0., crawl out of the wreck, unhurt. “It just wasn’t my time,” Frame commented laconically, as he ruefully surveyed his racing car, which probably will be unable to start in the 500-mile classic Wednesday. A hasty inspection of the wreck by mechanics revealed that a steering arm had broken. Yesterday Frame failed to qualify when a magneto in his car was found to have a broken coupling. The car which Frame wrecked today was the same car in which Billy Arnold “hit 4 the wall” in 1930. Hangers-on at the oval recalled today that Pete Kreis, Knoxville (Term.) racing driver, killed Friday, was going twenty-five miles slower than Frame when he met his death. Kreis’ death was believed to have been caused by mechanical trouble which caused him to lose control of his car, crashing over the treacherous southwest wall. Bob Hahn, riding mechanic, also was killed with Kreis. As the final tests got underway, it appeared that 110 miles an hour would be the minimum qualifying speed. Os the twenty-nine creations already qualified, two are under the 110 mark, one is on the mark, and feur reached 111. The remainder of the field appears secure. A flurry of activity sent thirteen cars hurtling around the two and one-half mile brick oval Saturday and Sunday to win their spurs. The oil-burning Diesels were assured of places in the lineup to face the barrier on Wednesday when they qualified at better than 100 miles an hour. The only requirement laid down for the Clessie Cummins’ buggies was a minimum speed average of 95 miles an hour. „ Dave Evans, only pilot ever to make the 500-mile trip without a stop, got the big four-cycle Diesel over the twenty-five mile course at a 102.414 clip Saturday. This speed was bettered by little Stubby Stubblefield in the two cycle job, his average being 105.921. A1 Gordon, Pacific coast champion, fulfilled the expectations of racing experts who have labeled him - a real threat for the 500-mile cash and fame, when he qualified his Miller Saturday at a 116.273 clip. Cliff Bergere, popular veteran, got Bill White’s Floating Power Special under the wire at a 115.243 pace and Deacon Litz, who smacked the wall on his first attempt a w*k ago, passed the test at 113.731. Lou Moore, who returned from Europe last week, didn’t putter around much with his Foreman Axle Special, third-place car last year. The job arrived early Saturday morning, and by afternoon, Moore had qualified at 113.442 miles an hour. Johnny Sawyer, big Milwaukee youth, showed 109.808 in his Burd Piston Ring Special, a homemade job. DRAMA LEAGUE ELECTS Nancy Campbell Heads Grohp at Shortridge.
