RICHBERG ACTS FOR ROOSEVELT IN HIS ABSENCE Co-Ordinator of New Deal, Though Bald, Still Is ‘Fair-Haired’ Boy. Tb. Tmldrni of the I mini States” ih>>* hot d**s while Mr Roh**lt It rmiiini ik* South s*, i, Donald Richberg about him tbia article la written. BY FREDERICK C. OAT II MAN United Prm M 8 Correspondent WASHINGTON. July 17.—Typical nf the New Deals precedent smashIng la Dor.aid Randall Richbere, novel writing Chicaeo attorney, who is a sort of unofficial assistant President of the United States. While President Roosevelt cruises in the southern seas and Vice-Presi-dent John 'Cactus Jack) Garner fishes in Texas, Mr. Richberg runs the recovery works in Washington. His title is that of co-ordinator. He keeps track of the alphabetical recovery agencies, the old line departments and all the other governmental agencies. He sees that they don’t do any. thing against public policy, keeps them from stepping on each other's toes and otherwise does about the same things that Mr. Roosevelt does when he's in town. Mr. Richberg, bald as he is, thus has become the fair-haired boy of the administration. Most people think that he has deserved the acclaim that Is his. Thene are hints that his next honor will b<* a place on the supreme court bench.

Aid to Grnrral Johnson He came here last year, 52 years old, enthusiastic and capable, as chief counsel of the national recovery administration. He soon became General Hugh Johnson’s right-hand man, had a large part in writing the labor clauses into the blue eagle codes, and worked as hard as his boss. Unlike General Johnson, however Mr. Richberg remains debonair, healthy, happy and ambitious. He always finds time for a word with his friends. His smile is frequent and his line of repartee is something to hear—when he really opens up. He is a human sort of person, one of the homeliest of the New Dealers, and one nf the most idealistic. His specialty is helping the underdog. Fought for ‘Underdog’ In Chicago he wrote novels, acted as attorney for railroad labor, lived quietly in a suburb, and was Known as a reformer. One of his specialties there was fighting the; battles of the unpaid school j teachers. Another was fighting the public's battles against the Samuel Insull combine, when the latter was the Croesus of the west. In Washington Mr. Richberg lives j just as quietly as he did in Chicago and fights just as vigorously. The only difference is that the size of his battle ground has expanded

2 Out of 5 Divorced

Dan Cupid Leads Dame Discord In Eternal War; 982 County Couples Split In 6 Months

TWO out of every five couples who marry in Marion county find their romances ended in divorce, according to reports at the clerk’s office for the first six months of 1934.

Rc' ’ show that 982 divorces were granted in Marion county lor the first half of the year. During the same period. 2,354 marriage licenses were issued The smaller figure is a record for divorces in the county during the last five years. Nearest approach to the divorce figure in recent years was 962 during the first six months of 1932. Last year was one apparently teeming with matrimonial bliss, for only 693 divorces were granted for the first six months. The large number of decrees in the county may serve as a warning to Reno. New, to look to its laurels as America's premier divorce city. In June of this year matrimonial ruptures reached a peak. There were 345 divorces granted. Size of this figure largely is due to pre-adjournment time of the courts having been given over largely to separation suits. Dame Discord made a better showing against her eternal rival. Dan Cupid, during the first half of this year's battle between the two than ever before. Figures for the first six months of the year reveal 147 divorces granted in January as against 277 marriage licenses issued. 83 to 263 in February'. 149 to 311 in March, 146 to 282 for April. 112 to 351 for May and 345 to 564 for June. Divorces are granted in the five superior courts of Marion county and in circuit court. An equal number of divorce suits is filed in each court.

DILLINGER HUNT DRAWS FEDERAL ‘CRACKJHOTS' 46 New Agents Take Field, More to Come; Concentrate in Midwest. By Unit'd Prrtx WASHINGTON, July 17.—First reinforcements will be sent into action soon in the federal government's war against kidnapers, bank robbers, racketeers and other organized criminals. A class of forty-six new agents of the justice department division of investigation, each a dead shot with machine guns and automatic rifles that can spit a death-dealing stream of lead at a rate of nearly 1,000 rounds a minute, will take the field July 28. Aug. 1 about thirty more handpicked recruits start training. Succeeding groups will be put through the training school until the present force of 430 active agents under direction of J. Edgar Hoover is expanded to 600. A large part of the present forcej is concentrated in the middle west in the unrelenting hunt for John Dillinger. The forty-six agents now complet- j ing training are the first to be added in the expansion of federal law enforcement machinery authorized by j the last congress. More than $2,000,000 in emergency appropriations was given the justice department to finance the new campaign. In addition to increasing the force of agents, the department has used some money to arm its men with the most deadly modern weapons obtainable. It plans soon to equip thirty field offices with fast, radio scout cars. The new agents are the cream of hundreds of applicants. Federal ro cruits must be between 25 and 35. j They must pass rigid physical examinations and must have had pre- j vious training in law, accountancy j or detective work.
