SOUP KITCHEN HEAD PREDICTS BETTER TIMES Only Half As Many Meals Served This April as in April '32. BY ARCH STEIXEL Tinfes Staff Writer A fellow who runs a soup kitchen _ "for the city’s impoverished shouldn’t be a Polyanna, but if W. H. Marsh, - manager of the city and county employes souphouse on East Mary- * lancj street, is to be believed, the depression will end for Indianapo- * lis arid Marion county next spring. “At the rate that families and the * homeless are dropping away as pa- , trons of the kitchen, we’ll have to close up by next spring,” forecast , Mr. Marsh. Inaugurated in January, 1930, the „ kitchen has catered to the city’s hornless and those who had no regular subsistence. * But a survey of those served in the lour months of 1934 compared *to former years shows definitely that by the spring of 1935 no one * will be left in the kitchen except Marsh and his cook, if the same ratio continues. April Shows Drop One-half as many men and women were served at the tables of the kitchen in April, 1934, as in April, 1932. In the latter month, the ► •kitchen served 33,195 meals, at the rate of two meals a day, against 16.369 table meals for the present year in the same month. t In April, 1933, there were 21,857 meals served at tables, showing better than two-fifths drop in the number of portions served as well in persons. A big drop in the aid given at the kitchen is that to families. Families come to the kitchen to get soup, bread, and other provisions. The Aprils of the last few years stack up as follows in families served: April, 1932, 54.120 families; April, 1933, 40,208 families; April, 1934, 14,556 families. “They’d Rather Work” CWA work and general improvement in employment is credited by Mr. Marsh with reducing the pleas for aid. “Nor do I think we’ve made bums out of folk just because we've been \ feeding them. The man who has been fed would much rather have a job and work than continue to receive his sustenance here,” Mr. Marsh said. The peak year of unemployment, 1932, showed the kitchen serving 80.765 families and 36,846 meals at tables. Figures are based on number of days in month and at the rate of two meals a day. In the Air Weather conditions at 9 a. m.: Southwest wind, 10 miles an hour; * barometric pressure, 29.85 at sea level; temperature, 86; general con- ' ditions, high, scattered clouds. Ceiling, unlimited; visibility, 12 miles.

LOGANSPORT COMPANY LOSES BLUE EAGLE Sixteenth Revocation for Indiana, Announced by Hoke. The sixteenth revocation in Indiana of an industrialist’s right to display the NRA's blue eagle was announced today by Fred Hoke, state compliance director. The revocation order was sent from Washington by General Hugh S. Johnson, NRA administrator, to W. L. Fernald, Logansport lumber dealer, for “persistent violation of the code of the lumber and timber products industry,” according to Mr. Hoke. Mr. Fernald, who was described by the government as the owner of a sawmill, selling hardwood at retail, declined to comment on the action. He added that he no longer was in business, having disposed of his properties. TRUCKMEN TO GATHER Vehicles to Be Registered Under Code at Session Here.
